Chapter 2265: Chapter 2265: Pursuit
This Nine Heavens Divine Fire Technique is said to have been created by an Immortal Emperor in his youth. Though it is not an Immortal Technique, in every aspect it surpasses ordinary Immortal Venerable Level Techniques by a wide margin. Precisely because of this, the Nine Heavens Divine Fire could be auctioned for a price close to thirty billion Black Crystal Stones. A domineering Immortal Venerable Technique like the Great Demon Seal Suppression Technique is only worth one or two dozen billion Black Crystal Stones at most.
If Jing Yan were to master the Nine Heavens Divine Fire, then even putting aside whether this Spell could help him create an Immortal Venerable Level Chaotic Sword, the Power of the Nine Heavens Divine Fire Technique alone would be enough to substantially enhance Jing Yan’s frontal Combat Power.
"Fellow Daoist Jing Yan, all the materials on this list can be prepared within three days." Elder Kuo Lian said in a relaxed tone.
"I must trouble Fellow Daoist Kuo Lian." Jing Yan nodded.
In less than three days, Kuo Lian came to find Jing Yan again, delivering a large amount of material resources for him. The materials Jing Yan requested the second time were prepared extremely thoroughly by Elder Kuo Lian. These materials needed for cultivating Immortal Rhythm Level and Immortal Venerable Level Techniques were indeed not hard to obtain for the Mystic Moon Trading House, the largest physical trading organization in Faro Heaven.
For these materials, Jing Yan paid six hundred billion Black Crystal Stones. Of course, this was the cost price of the materials; if it were someone else buying them, the Black Crystal Stones they would have to pay would be much more. It might take over a trillion Black Crystal Stones to secure them.
"Fellow Daoist Kuo Lian, I will be leaving the Mystic Moon Trading House tomorrow. As for those four kinds of materials, I must ask you to continue putting in effort to search for them." Jing Yan said.
"Fellow Daoist Jing Yan, rest assured." Elder Kuo Lian said with a light laugh.
The next day, Jing Yan left the Mystic Moon Trading House Headquarters.
He was carrying a large amount of Black Crystal Stones on him.
The first Immortal Charm Level Virtualization Technique fetched seven hundred and twenty billion Black Crystal Stones at auction, and the second one he sold to the Mystic Moon Trading House for five hundred billion Black Crystal Stones. Added together, that was one trillion two hundred and twenty billion Black Crystal Stones.
Jing Yan took from Elder Kuo Lian the materials needed to perform Thunder Nine Strikes, paying two hundred and forty billion Black Crystal Stones. After that, he spent another sixty billion Black Crystal Stones to purchase those materials required for cultivating Immortal Rhythm Level and Immortal Venerable Level Techniques. These two expenditures came to a total of three hundred billion Black Crystal Stones. At the auction, Jing Yan also spent over forty billion, close to fifty billion Black Crystal Stones, to buy more than ten Magic Technique Books.
Calculating it all, the Black Crystal Stones Jing Yan took away amounted to roughly seven hundred and seventy billion.
This was an extremely frightening number.
Of course, after Elder Kuo Lian also found those four kinds of materials, Jing Yan would still have to pay a huge sum for them. Those four materials were the rarest of all; each one was extremely expensive. Just those four materials alone would probably require over a trillion Black Crystal Stones to obtain, and it was even possible that one trillion Black Crystal Stones would not be enough.
When Jing Yan left the Mystic Moon Trading House, Elder Kuo Lian and many other Elders of the Mystic Moon Trading House personally came to see him off.
After leaving the Mystic Moon Trading House Headquarters, Jing Yan took out the Nightmare Magic Cube that Yuantong Immortal Venerable had given him.
The legendary Nightmare City!
Only Cultivators who possessed the Nightmare Magic Cube could enter the region of Nightmare City.
Jing Yan took out the Nightmare Magic Cube and examined it, and after a short while he frowned.
He could tell that the Nightmare Magic Cube was an Artifact Refining product, but with his ability, he actually could not understand its structure. With Jing Yan’s current ability, even for an Immortal Venerable Level Magical Treasure, he could see through it thoroughly in a short time. Yet this Nightmare Magic Cube left him completely at a loss.
Jing Yan still did not know that if other people tried to examine the Nightmare Magic Cube, they would fall into an Illusion Realm. Even some Cultivators in the Immortal Venerable Realm would feel a strange dizziness when examining it, making it impossible to concentrate.
"This thing is a bit impressive!"
"It seems that Nightmare City truly is not simple. I’m afraid it is far more than just a city established by Soul Cultivators." Jing Yan turned the thought over in his mind.
However, although he could not understand the structure of the Nightmare Magic Cube, Jing Yan did not spend too much time before figuring out how to use it. This Nightmare Magic Cube was actually a Transmission Treasure, only it was different from the ordinary Communication Magical Treasures used in Faro Heaven.
"As long as I activate this Nightmare Magic Cube, I should be able to directly enter the region of Nightmare City." Jing Yan said to himself.
He also was not clear about the specific situation in Nightmare City. Previously, he had tried through various channels to gather information, but over the long eras of Faro Heaven, Nightmare City had left very few traces. There were indeed some rumors about Nightmare City, but how reliable those rumors were was hard to say.
According to Yuantong Immortal Venerable, throughout Faro Heaven’s long history, there should have been quite a few Cultivators who obtained the Nightmare Magic Cube. Some of these Cultivators never returned after going to Nightmare City; some came back but firmly refused to talk about Nightmare City, and there were even those who flatly denied having ever gone there.
Of course, many Cultivators who had obtained the Nightmare Magic Cube would not publicly reveal it. In that case, outsiders would not even know they had gone to Nightmare City, and naturally no one would ask them about the situation in Nightmare City.
"Forget it, no point overthinking. Since I want to obtain Divine Soul Techniques, then Nightmare City is a must-go. Anyway, with my current strength, ordinary Immortal Venerable experts basically can’t threaten me. The Soul Cultivators in Nightmare City may be terrifying, but with my Divine Soul, I truly don’t fear Soul Cultivators." Jing Yan narrowed his eyes.
Then, he activated the Nightmare Magic Cube.
"Whoosh!"
An invisible wave of energy descended, and this energy rapidly enveloped Jing Yan.
In the blink of an eye, that place was empty, and Jing Yan had vanished without a trace. In the space, only a faint remnant spatial energy remained, rapidly dissipating.
Shortly after Jing Yan disappeared, a black figure appeared nearby.
This black figure carefully searched the surrounding area and finally confirmed that Jing Yan had vanished.
He took out a Communication Magical Treasure.
"Big Brother, that Jing Yan is gone." The black figure sent a message.
The one he contacted was a Saint Hand of the Slaughter God Hall, and moreover the First Saint among the Twelve Saints.
"What happened?" The First Saint’s voice was low.
"He should have used the Nightmare Magic Cube to transmit away." The black figure said.
This black figure was also one of the Saint Hands of the Slaughter God Hall. This man was extremely proficient in Void Dao Technique. He too was in the Immortal Venerable Realm, but his ability in the Void Dao Technique far surpassed his abilities in other Dao Skills. He was also the Saint Hand in the Slaughter God Hall most skilled in tracking. The business the Slaughter God Hall dealt in was intelligence, assassination, and so on, similar to the Shadow Tower in Yuantong Immortal Venerable’s territory. And this black-robed man was the top person in charge of intelligence tracking and collation in the Slaughter God Hall.
For this recent period of time, he had personally been tracking Jing Yan. Although the Slaughter God Hall had many experts good at tracking and assassination in the field of Void Dao Technique, those people’s abilities were comparatively lower. If they were to track Jing Yan, they would likely be discovered, so this Saint Hand personally took on the task.
And Jing Yan really had not noticed this person.
On the one hand, this person’s attainments in the Void were too high; on the other hand, although Jing Yan’s Divine Soul was incomparably strong, his realm was, after all, not yet that of an Immortal Venerable.
