Daily Divination From Market Rogue Cultivator To Immortal Venerable - Chapter 341

Chapter 341 Thousand Treasures Valley, Divine Sense Secret Techniques, Body Refinement News (Seeking Subscriptions)

Throughout the entire Fire Cloud World,

there is a consensus:

Only the Fire Cloud God Lord can absorb the power of the Fire Cloud Crystal.

Apart from him, no other cultivator, not even a peak God Emperor, can absorb a single drop.

Many speculate

that the Fire Cloud God Lord’s immense power stems from the Fire Cloud Crystal!

Over the years, various God Emperors have tried countless methods, but none have successfully extracted its power.

This is why

Gao Tianlan is so shocked at this moment.

“I wish to follow you, fellow Daoist, and beg you to guide me onto a higher path of cultivation!”

“Fellow Daoist Gao, you also want to absorb the power of this Fire Cloud Crystal?”

“Yes!”

“Very well, then let you try.”

Li Chang’an flicked his finger, sending a wisp of Fire Cloud Crystal power into Gao Tianlan’s body.

Gao Tianlan trembled, immediately sitting cross-legged, eyes closed, carefully sensing his own state.

A moment later,

he opened his eyes, a hint of doubt flashing within them.

“Fellow Daoist, the power of this Fire Cloud Crystal doesn’t seem as strong as I imagined.”

“Hmm, this is a body-refining treasure. Without cultivating your physique, you probably don’t even have a body-refining technique, making it impossible to unleash the full power of the Fire Cloud Crystal.”

“Why do you know so much about the Fire Cloud Crystal, Fellow Daoist?”

Gao Tianlan asked sincerely, seeking Li Chang’an’s guidance.

He then

took out another storage bag.

This storage bag also contained a large quantity of Fire Cloud Crystals, even more than the previous one!

Li Chang’an accepted it, calmly saying, “The Fire Cloud Crystal isn’t as extraordinary as you imagine. It’s just that the Fire Cloud God’s power has misled you. The Fire Cloud God’s strength lies in his cultivation techniques and spells.”

“Cultivation techniques and spells?”

Gao Tianlan pondered for a moment, as if he had realized something.

His breathing suddenly became rapid, even his aura became erratic for a moment, and a hint of excitement flashed in his eyes as he looked at Li Chang’an and asked.

“Fellow Daoist, do you possess a cultivation technique for the fourth realm?”

“Hmm, you’re not stupid.”

Li Chang’an raised his hand and pointed, revealing a glimmer of spiritual light.

This glimmer of light flew into Gao Tianlan’s sea of consciousness, transforming into a low-grade earth-level cultivation technique.

This technique

was something Li Chang’an had randomly selected from his collection of books; it could be cultivated up to the Nascent Soul realm, which was what cultivators in this world called the fourth realm.

However, Gao Tianlan possessed a fire elemental root, while Li Chang’an had given him a water-based technique, making it impossible for him to cultivate.

Even so

, the contents of this technique still excited him beyond measure.

“The fourth realm… the fourth realm truly exists!”

Gao Tianlan’s voice trembled, his whole body shook, and two lines of tears even streamed down his face.

His reaction

truly surprised Li Chang’an.

This guy hadn’t even blinked when he killed his own son.

Now, just seeing a low-grade earth-level cultivation technique, which wasn’t particularly valuable in the outside world, he had become so distraught.

After a while ,

Gao Tianlan finally regained his composure.

He bowed deeply to Li Chang’an again: “I will never forget your kindness in imparting your knowledge! I am willing to go through fire and water for you, only asking that you allow me to see a higher and more distant world.”

Li Chang’an said calmly: “Fellow Daoist Gao, I always believe in fair exchange. If you want something, you must exchange it for something else.”

“Please give your orders!”

Gao Tianlan knelt on one knee, his tone sincere, clearly adopting the attitude of a subordinate.

Li Chang’an was quite satisfied with this.

He produced a wood seed, turning Gao Tianlan into a wood seed puppet, but did not restrict his freedom.

After that, he ordered: “I need more Fire Cloud Crystals, as well as treasures of grades you cannot understand, and all the information about this world…”

Li Chang’an gave more than ten orders in succession.

Gao Tianlan agreed to them one by one.

A moment later.

Li Chang’an helped Gao Tianlan break through to the mid-stage of the Golden Core realm and lent him a peak third-tier puppet to facilitate his business in this world.

“Gao Tianlan’s talent isn’t bad, it’s just that his previous cultivation techniques were too poor, only a high-grade technique. No wonder he’s been stuck at the early Golden Core stage for a hundred years.”

Li Chang’an frowned upon seeing Gao Tianlan’s cultivation technique.

In the outside world, many Foundation Establishment cultivators wouldn’t even bother with such a technique, but in this world, it was considered quite good.

Since he had taken him as a subordinate, Li Chang’an naturally gave him better cultivation techniques and spells.

“Thank you, Senior!”

Gao Tianlan was moved to tears.

Today was a day that changed his destiny.

“Do your job well, don’t disappoint me.”

After giving a few more instructions, Li Chang’an planned to leave and explore this world.

At this moment ,

Gao Tianlan suddenly asked him,

“Senior, I still don’t know your name.”

“Me? My name is Changqing!”

After saying that, Li Chang’an didn’t linger and left the Divine Emperor’s Mansion.

Behind him ,

Gao Tianlan knelt on one knee and respectfully shouted,

“Respectfully seeing off the Divine Lord Changqing!”

…

For more than a year afterward,

Li Chang’an’s main body continued to cultivate on Changqing Mountain.

His puppet body had traversed most of the Fiery Cloud Secret Realm, completely integrating into it.

This secret realm differed greatly from others.

There were almost no dangerous areas; all perilous places seemed to have been eliminated by the Great Jin Immortal Dynasty.

But what puzzled him was that

he hadn’t seen any records left by the Great Jin Immortal Dynasty.

Everyone believed that a great calamity had occurred in this world, causing a historical break.

“The Great Jin Immortal Dynasty must have mined a large amount of Fire Cloud Crystals in this secret realm, otherwise they wouldn’t have left so many abandoned mines, and there wouldn’t be not a single record left, unless someone deliberately concealed history and collected all records about the Great Jin Immortal Dynasty.”

Thinking of this,

Li Chang’an looked towards the very center of the world, at the Fire Cloud Divine Palace standing atop a towering mountain.

The title of Fire Cloud Divine Lord had been passed down through countless generations.

Each generation of Fire Cloud Divine Lord was the ruler of this world.

Li Chang’an suspected that

the records about the Great Jin Immortal Dynasty had all been collected by the Fire Cloud Divine Palace.

In this way, the beings of this world wouldn’t know they lived in a secret realm, making it easier for the Fire Cloud Divine Palace to manage them.

“The Fire Cloud Divine Palace must contain many treasures, but I haven’t yet figured out the specific strength of the Fire Cloud Divine Lord. I’ll wait a little longer.”

Li Chang’an withdrew his gaze and continued to travel through the other divine realms.

In this year,

besides Gao Tianlan, he also subdued several Golden Core subordinates.

They all called Li Chang’an “Eternal Green Divine Lord” and provided him with a large amount of Fire Cloud Crystals and high-level treasures.

This action was a complete betrayal of the Fire Cloud God Lord.

But they all wanted to take a gamble!

The Fire Cloud God Lord never gave them cultivation techniques for the Nascent Soul stage, but Li Chang’an was willing, which was one of the reasons they followed him.

…

Time flew by, and several months passed.

On this day,

a special guest suddenly arrived at Changqing Mountain.

This person came in a puppet form, emanating an aura familiar to Li Chang’an.

The White Tiger Saint Son, Cui Baihong!

He had a deep conflict with Li Chang’an, and they had even fought in the secret realm. He still coveted the opportunities Li Chang’an possessed.

Today,

he came not to negotiate peace, but to make a deal with Li Chang’an.

“Li Chang’an, I have fourth-tier Crimson Fire Sparrow essence blood. I know you need this essence blood to exchange for the qualification to enter the Vermilion Bird Secret Realm.”

Cui Baihong got straight to the point, stating his conditions.

“You have a good relationship with Zi Xi. As long as you lure Zi Xi out alone and help me kill her, I will give you this Crimson Fire Sparrow essence blood.”

As he spoke, he presented a spiritual contract.

The spiritual contract was laden with constraints, making it one of the strictest types.

This was his sincerity.

Violating the contract would result in severe repercussions.

“Using Zi Xi’s life to exchange for this treasure seems like a good deal, don’t you think?”

“No.”

Li Chang’an flicked his finger, sending a burst of magical power that shattered the spiritual contract.

Then, he used the Evergreen Mountain Formation to crush Cui Baihong’s puppet into dust.

Enraged, Cui Baihong uttered a murderous farewell before the puppet’s complete annihilation:

“Li Chang’an, one day I will kill you!”

Li Chang’an didn’t respond.

He sat quietly in the courtyard, pondering for a moment.

“Since Cui Baihong dared to use such a stringent spiritual contract, it means he indeed possesses the essence blood of a fourth-tier Crimson Firebird.”

Li Chang’an could tell.

Cui Baihong genuinely wanted to trade with him.

But he had his bottom line; he wouldn’t betray a friend for a treasure.

Compared to killing Zi Xi, he preferred to kill Cui Baihong.

“Cui Baihong has a special physique, possessing the White Tiger Vajra Body. Even near-fourth-tier strength would have difficulty harming him. We need to plan carefully.”

If Li Chang’an could kill Cui Baihong and obtain the Crimson Fire Sparrow’s essence blood from him,

he would have gathered all three treasures.

With these three treasures, he could exchange them for the qualification to enter the Vermilion Bird Secret Realm.

“This matter isn’t urgent. First, investigate whether he has any weaknesses.”

Li Chang’an composed himself, his mind quite calm.

He took out his communication artifact and informed Zi Xi of the matter.

Afterwards, he went to the black market and asked Luo Qiantong to gather all the information he could about Cui Baihong.

Half a month later.

A flood of information arrived from all over.

According to the reports, Cui Baihong had almost no weaknesses.

He was an orphan, without parents or descendants; his only close relative was his master, True Lord White Tiger.

Li Chang’an couldn’t possibly have kidnapped True Lord White Tiger.

Fortunately,

Cui Baihong had something he craved.

News from the Yuan Kingdom indicated that

Cui Baihong had been searching for a divine sense technique for years, yearning for a Heaven-grade divine sense attack technique.

He believed his physique was already strong enough, and his magical power was not weak either.

If he obtained a divine sense technique,

he would possess great strength in all three aspects: essence, qi, and spirit.

“This guy’s thinking is similar to mine; his essence, qi, and spirit cannot be weak,”

Li Chang’an thought to himself.

He possessed two divine sense attack techniques, the “Golden Soul Sword Transformation Technique” and the “Scorpion Needle Shattering God Technique,” but both were only Earth-grade.

They wouldn’t meet Cui Baihong’s requirements, and he probably wouldn’t be able to lure him into a trap.

“It doesn’t necessarily need bait. A suitable opportunity will suffice. Have Luo Qiantong pay close attention to this guy’s cultivation habits.”

Li Chang’an put down the message in his hand and continued cultivating.

In the following days,

his clones, who traveled to various places searching for treasures, began to pay attention to the Heavenly Grade Divine Sense Secret Technique, but they didn’t gain much.

Time passed, and several months went by.

This day,

at midnight,

a golden light appeared before Li Chang’an as usual.

[The divination has been updated]

[Today’s Divination – Auspicious]

[You have been invited by the Holy Queen Wang Qianling of the Wang family to search for treasures in the Thousand Treasure Valley of the Central Region. You unexpectedly discovered a special earthenware jar outside the valley and obtained a Heavenly Grade Divine Sense Attack Secret Technique from it.]

“Thousand Treasure Valley?”

Li Chang’an looked at the divination, lost in thought.

This place was very special.

Originally, it was just an ordinary canyon.

But after the second earthquake, a crack appeared deep within the Thousand Treasure Valley.

Every so often, a dense stream of cold air would spew out from that crack, mixed with a large number of treasures.

This is why the canyon was named Thousand Treasures Valley.

Within Thousand Treasures Valley,

countless cultivators wait daily for treasures to appear.

Furthermore, many others set up stalls inside and outside the valley to sell the treasures they’ve acquired.

Li Chang’an’s clone had visited a few days prior and managed to snag some high-grade treasures.

“Unexpectedly, another opportunity to find bargains has come so soon,”

he smiled, in high spirits.

His Heavenly Grade Divine Sense Secret Technique would amplify the power of his divine sense attacks and could also be used as bait to lure Cui Baihong into his prepared trap.

…

The next day, as dawn broke,

a streak of light pierced the sky, landing on Changqing Mountain and transforming into Wang Qianling’s figure.

Just as the divination had indicated.

She had come today to invite Li Chang’an to Thousand Treasures Valley to search for treasures.

“Fellow Daoist Li, according to calculations, the time for Thousand Treasures Valley to spew forth treasures is approaching. Would you be willing to come with me to see it?”

“That’s exactly what I’m thinking!”

Li Chang’an readily accepted.

Soon, the two left Changqing Mountain and headed towards the Central Region.

During the journey, Wang Qianling recounted the various strange occurrences of Qianbao Valley.

Deep beneath the valley, a powerful repulsive force prevented anyone from exploring the fissure, leaving the origin of the treasures unknown.

Even Nascent Soul True Monarchs from the Wang family and other forces had attempted to access it, all ending in failure.

Because of this,

Qianbao Valley remained unclaimed by any single force, and its treasures were never fully extracted.

It erupted periodically.

“Similar fissures spewing treasures like Qianbao Valley have appeared many times in recent years, but the causes of other fissures have long been investigated; only Qianbao Valley remains shrouded in mystery.”

If one could unravel the mystery, perhaps all the treasures could be obtained.

But no one had succeeded.

Li Chang’an had also tried.

He used multiple clones, attempting to penetrate the depths of Qianbao Valley from various directions, but all were repelled by the immense repulsive force.

After numerous failures, he had to give up.

He suspected that

the repulsive force was caused by some kind of formation.

However, his current mastery of formations was insufficient to unravel its mysteries.

A few days later,

the two arrived at Thousand Treasures Valley.

Looking out, a chasm tens of thousands of feet deep appeared on the earth.

Thousand Treasures Valley was bustling with activity, filled with cultivators from all sides.

Everywhere, inside and outside the valley, cultivators set up stalls selling treasures.

Many of the treasures were of unknown grade.

“According to the divination, the earthenware jar containing a Heavenly Grade Divine Sense Secret Technique was the one I found outside Thousand Treasures Valley,”

Li Chang’an said, landing outside the valley. He quietly used his Stone Eye to weave through the noisy crowd, scanning each stall.

Soon, he selected an ancient-looking earthenware jar.

On the jar

were several seals imbued with the aura of time.

Unless the seals were broken, no one would know what was inside.

The stall owner explained, “I obtained this item when it spewed treasures from Thousand Treasures Valley. I tried many methods, but still couldn’t determine what was inside. I was afraid it was empty, so I’m selling it. Fellow Daoist, would you like to take a gamble?”

“That’s exactly what I was thinking!”

Li Chang’an smiled, tossed down over a hundred mid-grade spirit stones, and bought the earthenware jar.

Wang Qianling, standing beside him, asked, “Fellow Daoist Li, do you perhaps possess profound treasure appraisal skills?”

“It’s just a matter of trying my luck. How would I know anything about treasure appraisal?”

Li Chang’an shook his head with a smile and put the earthenware jar into his storage bag.

For a period of time afterward,

he bought more than ten earthenware jars.

Under the light of his stone eye, almost every jar contained a rich, precious light.

Among them, the light from one jar was particularly dazzling, touching his divine sense.

“This should be it,”

Li Chang’an thought to himself.

He continued his search and bought several more jars.

By then, he had bought every jar with a precious light outside the entire Thousand Treasure Valley.

In addition,

he also found more than ten other good treasures at bargain prices.

Seeing his continuous purchases, Wang Qianling became increasingly curious.

“Fellow Daoist Li, do you really not know how to appraise treasures?”

“No, I just go by intuition.”

Li Chang’an stood in front of a stall, casually picked up a stone, and replied with a smile.

Just then ,

a familiar voice rang out not far away.

“If you don’t know how to appraise treasures, don’t buy them randomly. It’s not easy for rogue cultivators to accumulate wealth; be careful not to run out of spirit stones.”

Cui Baihong stood not far away, his expression indifferent, and spoke coldly.

Li Chang’an casually replied, “There’s no need for Fellow Daoist Cui to trouble yourself with this matter.”

He had already sensed Cui Baihong’s aura but hadn’t made a move.

This place was too crowded and inconvenient;

it wasn’t a good place to attack.

Li Chang’an noticed a woman beside Cui Baihong whose appearance and aura were both remarkable.

Wang Qianling transmitted her voice to him, “Fellow Daoist Li, that female cultivator is Cui Baiying, the Holy Maiden of the White Tiger Sect. She’s a third-tier high-grade treasure appraiser, quite famous in the Yuan Kingdom’s cultivation world.”

“A third-tier high-grade treasure appraiser?”

Li Chang’an was somewhat surprised; this was the first time he’d seen an appraiser of such a high rank.

This skill was difficult to cultivate, requiring exposure to a vast number of treasures; even ordinary rogue cultivators struggled to grasp the basics.

Wang Qianling sighed, “I only brought a third-tier low-grade Breaking Illusion treasure this time; I’m unlikely to be able to compete with her.”

Li Chang’an wasn’t worried.

He had already achieved his goal and possessed the Stone Eye, a fourth-tier treasure eye.

If Thousand Treasure Valley were to release a high-grade treasure, he would be able to detect it immediately.

Next…

As time passed, a large number of cultivators arrived from all directions.

Through Wang Qianling’s introduction,

Li Chang’an met two cultivators of considerable status and strength:

Chi Qingxuan, the Holy Maiden of the Azure Dragon Sect, and Lin Xuanyan, the Holy Son of the Black Tortoise Sect.

“So, Fellow Daoist Li is that rogue cultivator with a low-grade spiritual root who has reached the Core Formation stage,”

Chi Qingxuan said, scrutinizing him.

This Holy Maiden of the Azure Dragon Sect was unlike any female cultivator Li Chang’an had ever met before.

She was tall and agile, her skin not fair but bronze, exuding a wildness, like a transformed demon beast.

After some conversation,

Li Chang’an learned that she also cultivated both Dharma and Body, her physique reaching the late stage of the third rank, capable of withstanding attacks from late-stage Golden Core cultivators.

Furthermore, he learned an important piece of information:

the Azure Dragon Sect actually possessed a fourth-rank Body Refining Technique!

“Fellow Daoist Chi, can an outsider exchange for this technique?”

“Yes.”
