The Sword God of the Universe

Chapter 1702: Chapter 1702: Tempted by Profit

Clan Leader Yun Jian of the Yun Clan took out only one Jade Bottle, so it was up to the Supreme Elder standing nearest to Clan Leader Yun Jian to receive the Jade Bottle and open it with a puzzled expression.

As soon as the Jade Bottle was opened, a rich medicinal fragrance instantly filled the room, suffusing it with a peculiar scent.

The Supreme Elder turned his palm over, and a pink Elixir was poured out from the Jade Bottle.

As soon as the Elixir appeared, the entire room was bathed in a layer of pink flowing light. On the Elixir’s surface, incredibly complex Law Patterns flickered, shining brilliantly.

"This is..."

The gazes of several Yun Clan Supreme Elders were all drawn to the pink Elixir, and someone lightly inhaled as they parted their lips.

"Clan Leader, is this the Dancing Crane Elixir?" The Supreme Elder holding the Elixir in his palm looked at Clan Leader Yun Jian in shock.

"Indeed, this Elixir is the Dancing Crane Elixir." Yun Jian nodded.

"Clan Leader, where did you obtain the Dancing Crane Elixir? The Dancing Crane Elixir stock in our Yun Clan was depleted long ago, wasn’t it?" Another Supreme Elder asked excitedly.

The Dancing Crane Elixir is an Elixir used by Chaos Supremes during cultivation. Its primary characteristic is its ability to aid Chaos Supremes in their Enlightenment. Its most powerful feature is that it does not target the comprehension of just one or a few Laws. In other words, Chaos Supremes, regardless of which Law they are enlightening in, can use this Dancing Crane Elixir.

Within the Yun Clan, this Elixir had long been gone from the inventory. It’s even said that throughout the Floating Domain, traces of the Dancing Crane Elixir are almost nonexistent. To acquire such an Elixir, one would have to try their luck in the powerful Shamanic Clouds Domain. However, even in the strongest Shamanic Clouds Domain, obtaining this Elixir is a matter of luck.

"This Elixir was brought over by Elder Ying Zhan of the Shadow Clan." Yun Jian looked deeply at several of the clan’s Supreme Elders and said.

"What?"

"How is this possible!"

"If our Yun Clan doesn’t have this Elixir, how could the Shadow Clan have it!"

As soon as Yun Jian’s words fell, a Supreme Elder shouted out.

However, despite how unbelievable it seemed, the truth was undeniable, and they had to believe it. Their Clan Leader wouldn’t possibly lie, and this Elixir was indeed the Dancing Crane Elixir.

"Clan Leader, the Shadow Clan elder brought this Elixir over, perhaps intending to use it as a reprisal, hoping that we would send people to support their Shadow Clan in battle."

For no reason, the Shadow Clan must have lost their minds to gift an Elixir to the Yun Clan. The intention of the Shadow Clan was not hard to guess.

"Heh, although the Dancing Crane Elixir is good, asking our Yun Clan to go to war for a single Dancing Crane Elixir is somewhat naive on their part. Heh, it’s a bit far-fetched; our Yun Clan is not that cheap."

"I must admit, the Dancing Crane Elixir is indeed tempting. But it’s not enough to make our Yun Clan fight."

The several Supreme Elders of the Yun Clan had similar opinions.

"You’ve only said half of it!"

"Elder Ying Zhan means that they can provide more Dancing Crane Elixir."

"If there were only one Dancing Crane Elixir, I wouldn’t have summoned all of you elders here." Yun Jian squinted slightly as he spoke.

"Does the Shadow Clan have more Dancing Crane Elixir?"

"How exactly did they obtain these Elixirs? Do they have some connection that we don’t know about? As far as I know, there is no Pill Master in the Floating Domain capable of refining the Dancing Crane Elixir. To acquire this Elixir, one must go to the Shamanic Clouds Domain. Could the people of the Shadow Clan have any relation with the powerful Pill Master in the Shamanic Clouds Domain?"

"If the Shadow Clan holds many Dancing Crane Elixirs, then we must give it some serious thought. If the Shadow Clan is destroyed, these Elixirs might fall into the hands of the Wu Clan and the Sa Clan. That would certainly not be good news for us."

Everyone spoke up.

"According to Elder Ying Zhan, the Dancing Crane Elixir does not belong to the Shadow Clan. Instead, it belongs to a Pill Master named Jing Yan. The current situation is that this Jing Yan is presently inside the Shadow Clan. Elder Ying Zhan is merely the messenger. Alchemist Jing Yan states that if the Yun Clan is interested in the Dancing Crane Elixir, they can send someone to the Shadow Clan to negotiate." Yun Jian shook his head and said.

"Alchemist Jing Yan?"

Everyone exchanged glances, and from each other’s eyes, it was clear that they had never heard of this name.

"Clan Leader, what is your plan?" asked a Supreme Elder, raising his eyebrows.

"My thought is, why not send someone to have a look first. If this Alchemist Jing Yan indeed has more Dancing Crane Elixir, then perhaps we could negotiate. As long as he can provide a satisfactory quantity of Elixirs, our Yun Clan might be willing to fight." Yun Jian said.

"But if we do fight, it will be dangerous. The Wu Clan and the Sa Clan have allied, and they are not easy to deal with." A Supreme Elder hesitated.

"Naturally, there is indeed great risk. But if there is sufficient benefit, taking risks isn’t out of the question. Our Yun Clan has roamed the Floating Domain for countless years, and it hasn’t always been smooth sailing." Yun Jian said.

"I agree with the Clan Leader’s opinion!"

"Yes, I agree. If we truly can obtain more Dancing Crane Elixir, it is certainly worth the risk. It all depends on whether this Alchemist Jing Yan truly has more Dancing Crane Elixir."

After a brief consideration, several Supreme Elders expressed their agreement.

Since the war has not yet begun, they could send someone over to verify the claim of the Shadow Clan and Alchemist Jing Yan. If the Shadow Clan dares to deceive the Yun Clan, then they should be prepared for the wrath of the Yun Clan.

...

Within the Shadow Clan.

"Haha, Elder Yun Chen, long time no see!"

Ying Huixu greeted Elder Yun Chen, who had just arrived from the Yun Clan at the Shadow Clan, with cupped hands.

"Shadow Clan Leader, you’re too polite!" Yun Chen returned the gesture.

While speaking, he glanced around, seemingly searching for someone. In fact, he was subconsciously looking for Alchemist Jing Yan.

"Elder Yun Chen, please come inside." Ying Huixu made a welcoming gesture.

"Shadow Clan Leader, please; Brother Ying Xiao, please!" Yun Chen addressed Ying Huixu and Ying Xiao individually.

Entering the reception room.

"Shadow Clan Leader, the purpose of my visit this time, I believe you and the High Priest are well aware, so let’s not beat around the bush. Could you tell me, where is this Alchemist Jing Yan located?" Yun Chen asked directly after sitting down.
