Daily Divination From Market Rogue Cultivator To Immortal Venerable - Chapter 440

Chapter 440 The Great Qi’s Gift of Gratitude is Stolen Again (Please Subscribe)

The spirit’s words were similar to Li Chang’an’s thoughts.

He was also worried about a drastic change in the cultivation world.

The war between good and evil was intensifying, and the purpose of the demonic path remained unclear.

In addition, the origin of those alien powerhouses from 30,000 years ago was also a major problem.

He needed to become stronger as soon as possible; there was no time to delay.

At this moment,

the spirit suddenly made a move below, and the fragment of the Green Wood Sword flew over as a stream of light.

He gave it to Li Chang’an and said, “The power of this fragment has been exhausted. It can no longer be used to fight. You should slowly nurture it with the Evergreen Magic Power, and you should be able to awaken the sword spirit.”

“Thank you, senior!”

Li Chang’an took the fragment and carefully sensed it.

Just as the spirit said

, there was a very weak consciousness within the fragment.

Li Chang’an infused the fragment with Evergreen Magic Power, but the consciousness did not react.

“I don’t know how long it will take to nurture it.”

He put away the fragment, intending to nurture it slowly.

A moment later,

he was sent away by the spirit. Qi Jiuyang and his

companions were still waiting outside.

Upon seeing him appear, Qi Jiuyang immediately inquired,

“Young friend Li, how did things go?”

“Don’t worry, senior, that old monster has been suppressed.”

“That’s good.”

Qi Jiuyang and the others breathed a sigh of relief.

They bowed to the ancestral statue, then escorted Li Chang’an away from the Azure Wood Divine Tower.

Back in the outside world,

Qi Jiuyang stated that Li Chang’an had helped them greatly this time, a favor to the entire Great Qi Immortal Dynasty. If he needed any treasures or wanted to ask them for anything, he could simply say so now. Since

he had said this, Li Chang’an naturally wouldn’t stand on ceremony.

“Senior, I want a tribulation-crossing treasure.”

“A tribulation-crossing treasure?”

Qi Jiuyang was somewhat surprised, carefully examining Li Chang’an to confirm that Li Chang’an only had the early Golden Core stage cultivation.

Having formed his core for many years without any breakthrough, it meant his cultivation potential had reached its limit. Why would he want a tribulation-crossing treasure?

Qi Jiuyang had initially thought Li Chang’an would ask him to help resolve the Cang Hong matter.

Although Cang Hong was a mid-Nascent Soul cultivator, the Great Qi Immortal Dynasty had a strong foundation, making him easy to deal with.

“Young friend Li, do you truly desire a tribulation-crossing treasure?”

Prince Qing asked.

“In my opinion, you’d better ask for a body-refining treasure, or let us handle Cang Hong.”

“Senior, there’s no need to trouble you with Cang Hong’s matter; I can cultivate at the Zixia Sect.”

Li Chang’an stated his intentions; he only wanted a tribulation-crossing treasure.

As for body refinement,

that could wait.

In his eyes, body refinement wasn’t as important as cultivation.

Seeing his resolve, Qi Jiuyang didn’t ask further and immediately took out two treasures from his storage bag.

One was a large cauldron, half a person’s height, entirely azure blue.

The other was a bead.

Qi Jiuyang explained that these two treasures corresponded to the lightning tribulation and the inner demon tribulation, respectively.

The cauldron was named the ‘Clear Thunder Cauldron,’ capable of withstanding four minor heavenly lightning strikes; if in its complete state, it could weaken the final major heavenly lightning strike.

This item was far superior to the Thunder-Transforming Pearl and Thunder-Swallowing Bowl that Li Chang’an had previously obtained.

The pearl, named the “Mysterious Heart Pearl,” could weaken the influence of the inner demon tribulation, preventing the person undergoing the tribulation from becoming too deeply trapped in the illusion of the inner demon.

The quality of these two treasures was considered high among tribulation-crossing treasures.

While not top-tier,

they were good enough.

Top-tier treasures were reserved for the disciples of the Great Qi royal family.

Li Chang’an naturally wouldn’t be picky and immediately accepted both treasures.

“Thank you, Senior!”

With these two treasures, his chances of successfully crossing the tribulation greatly increased.

Even if he were to undergo the tribulation now, he had a very high degree of confidence in succeeding.

That evening,

Li Chang’an was sent back to the Purple Cloud Sect by Jiang Xuanyuan.

Before leaving, Jiang Xuanyuan suddenly asked, “Young friend Li, are you truly only at the early stage of the Golden Core realm?”

Li Chang’an replied, “This matter cannot be disclosed for now; Senior will find out later.”

“Alright, cultivate diligently.”

Jiang Xuanyuan didn’t ask any further questions and vanished into the sky in an instant.

Li Chang’an returned to his cave dwelling, waiting for Qi Jiuyang to contact him.

The crisis at the Azure Wood Divine Tower had been resolved, and Qi Jiuyang should soon give him the ten-thousand-year-old lightning-struck wood.

“With the ten-thousand-year-old lightning-struck wood, I can repair the umbrella.”

Just then,

Li Chang’an suddenly received a message from Luo Qiantong.

Luo Qiantong informed him that after searching extensively, he had discovered a piece of ten-thousand-year-old lightning-struck wood in the Yan Kingdom’s demonic path.

However, before he could bring it back, it was stolen by the demonic path members.

“Stolen again?”

Li Chang’an frowned; this was the second time he had been robbed of his treasure.

He immediately used his clone, changed his identity, and entered the black market outside Changqing Immortal City to discuss the matter in detail with Luo Qiantong.

“Qiantong, which demonic path force robbed it?”

“Uncle Li, it was the Five Poisons Valley.”

“Tell me the details.”

“Yes…”

Luo Qiantong immediately explained the situation.

Early that morning, his men unexpectedly discovered a piece of ten-thousand-year-old lightning-struck wood in a small village in the Yan Kingdom.

His subordinates originally intended to take the piece of lightning-struck wood away.

However, more than one person had discovered the treasure.

“Besides my subordinates, there was also a cultivator from the Five Poisons Valley. The two of them discovered the lightning-struck wood almost simultaneously.”

Both attacked at the same time.

Luo Qiantong’s subordinates were stronger and seized the lightning-struck wood first.

However, more demonic cultivators arrived shortly after, killed Luo Qiantong’s subordinates, and took the lightning-struck wood away.

Luo Qiantong, naturally unwilling to swallow this insult, dispatched even more men to seize the wood. They successfully killed the group of demonic cultivators and retrieved the

lightning-struck wood. However, not long after, another group of demonic cultivators intercepted them and stole the wood again.

This back-and-forth continued several times.

Finally,

a demonic True Monarch intervened!

“That Jade Toad True Monarch is truly shameless. As a Nascent Soul cultivator, he dared to attack my Golden Core cultivators!”

Luo Qiantong’s face showed resentment and helplessness.

Although his forces were vast, they lacked top-tier experts; the strongest among them was only at the peak of the Golden Core stage.

Facing a Nascent Soul expert, they were bound to suffer losses.

Jade Toad True Monarch was one of the five publicly known Nascent Soul cultivators of the Five Poisons Valley, possessing the cultivation of a pseudo-Nascent Soul.

After seizing the ten-thousand-year-old lightning-struck wood, he almost wiped out Luo Qiantong’s subordinates, leaving only a few severely injured, and then issued a warning to them.

“If you’re still not satisfied, let your backers come to my Jade Toad Palace and steal the treasure!”

Luo Qiantong repeated his words to Li Chang’an.

The reason Jade Toad True Monarch was so arrogant was because he was certain that none of Luo Qiantong’s subordinates had Nascent Soul cultivators behind them.

If they truly had Nascent Soul cultivators, they would have contacted him through special channels long ago; there would be no need for this back-and-forth fighting.

After saying this, Luo Qiantong asked, “Uncle Li, what should we do about this?” “

First, gather information about Jade Toad and let him be arrogant for a few days,”

Li Chang’an calmly instructed.

Stealing his things would naturally not end well.

However, he always planned carefully before acting and would not underestimate Jade Toad True Monarch just because he was only a fake Nascent Soul cultivator; he had to be fully prepared.

Just then,

he suddenly received a message from Qi Jiuyang.

Qi Jiuyang informed him that the Ten-Thousand-Year Lightning-Struck Wood was ready and he could pick it up at any time.

“Qi Jiuyang hasn’t broken his promise; we can hold off on Jade Toad True Monarch’s matter for a while.”

Li Chang’an only needed one Ten-Thousand-Year Lightning-Struck Wood; there was no need to rush to kill Jade Toad True Monarch.

…

The next day.

He traveled to the Great Qi Immortal Dynasty and successfully obtained a piece of ten-thousand-year-old lightning-struck wood.

Afterwards, he returned to the Purple Cloud Sect, entered the Purple Cloud Secret Realm, and found the spirit of the Beast Taming Wheel.

“Senior, I wish to borrow fourth-tier earth fire to repair my tribulation-crossing treasure.” “

Alright, follow me.”

The spirit did not refuse, transforming into a child and leading him into the core of the ruins.

Soon, Li Chang’an arrived at the refining room where he had previously crafted the Beast Taming Wheel.

He sat cross-legged before the earth fire, taking out the tattered Heavenly Thunder Umbrella and many other treasures needed to repair it from his storage bag.

Sensing the aura of the Heavenly Thunder Umbrella, the spirit was somewhat surprised.

“Eh, your refining skills have advanced to the middle fourth tier?”

“This junior was fortunate enough to obtain a Xuanqi Sect inheritance and recently advanced.”

“Your talent in cultivation techniques is indeed quite good, it’s a pity the Beast Taming Sect hasn’t returned yet, otherwise I would definitely introduce you to a Nascent Soul Heavenly Lord as a disciple.”

Having said that, the spirit stepped aside, no longer disturbing Li Chang’an.

A moment later.

Li Chang’an channeled a wisp of magic power, enveloping the Heavenly Thunder Umbrella, and sent it into the forging furnace.

Inside the blazing red-hot furnace, the umbrella slowly opened.

It was clear that the ribs supporting the umbrella were badly damaged, and the umbrella surface was riddled with holes, exuding an aura of decay.

With a thought, Li Chang’an sent various materials into the furnace, refining them one by one.

He used ten-thousand-year-old lightning-struck wood to forge new umbrella ribs, successfully replacing the old ones, and replaced the old umbrella surface with lightning-patterned cloth. The remaining materials were used to fill in the gaps in the damaged areas.

Not long after,

half of a brand-new Heavenly Thunder Umbrella flew out of the forging furnace.

Although it lacked a handle, it already possessed the power to transcend tribulations, far superior to the Clear Thunder Cauldron that Qi Jiuyang had given to Li Chang’an.

As for the handle, its material was Immortal Tear Thunder Gold, which had not appeared in the cultivation world for tens of thousands of years.

Li Chang’an had specifically searched through various channels but found no information about it.

“I can only start with that old fellow Cang Hong.”

He folded up the umbrella and pondered silently.

“With the Flying Immortal Intent combined with the sword formation, my killing power should be stronger than Cang Hong’s, but he possesses the Flying Hong Spirit Body, which excels at escape. Even if I defeat him, it will be difficult for me to catch him unless I lure him into a fourth-order grand formation.”

“A low-grade fourth-order formation is not enough; I need to try to obtain a mid-grade fourth-order formation.”

“Furthermore, the Nine Heavens Divine Thunder Sword needs to be cultivated to its full potential; this will increase my chances of success…”

His swordsmanship was not low, and he was also skilled in thunder magic. Cultivating the Nine Heavens Divine Thunder Sword to its full potential should not take long.

With this in mind…

Li Chang’an immediately contacted Yan Ruxuan, asking her to help him find a fourth-tier mid-grade array technique inheritance.

Yan Ruxuan had extensive connections within the ancient cultivation sects and knew the revived cultivators of the nine great immortal sects. She quickly brought back good news for Li Chang’an.

“Fellow Daoist Li, a fellow Daoist from the Myriad Array Sect is willing to give you a fourth-tier mid-grade array technique inheritance, but he needs to discuss it with you in person.”

“Good, please arrange a meeting place for us, Fellow Daoist Yan. If this matter succeeds, I will definitely reward you handsomely!”

Li Chang’an was in high spirits and immediately promised Yan Ruxuan a valuable treasure.

“Having extensive connections is indeed impressive. In the past, I don’t know how many methods I would have had to try to barely obtain news of a fourth-tier inheritance.”

He held the communication jade pendant in his hand and waited patiently.

After a while,

Yan Ruxuan informed him that arrangements had been made for them to meet in Ziyun Immortal City.

This Ziyun Immortal City was not unfamiliar to Li Chang’an.

This city was an affiliated force of the Zixia Sect, originally called “Baiyun Immortal City.” Due to Lin Fan’s offense against Li Chang’an, the Zixia Sect changed its ruler.

The current ruler is Zi Xi’s younger sister, Zi Yun.

…

The next day.

Li Chang’an entered Ziyun Immortal City.

He arrived at a cave within the city and met Yan Ruxuan.

Beside Yan Ruxuan stood a thin, middle-aged cultivator in a gray robe.

Yan Ruxuan smiled and introduced him to Li Chang’an.

“Fellow Daoist Li, this is Fellow Daoist Ma Jun of the Wanzhen Sect. He was once a Nascent Soul elder of the Wanzhen Sect, and after awakening, he achieved Nascent Soul status again.”

As she spoke, Li Chang’an sized up Ma Jun.

This person was indeed a Nascent Soul cultivator, but his aura was weak; he had only barely formed a pseudo-Nascent Soul, on par with the Thousand Corpse True Monarch—a bottom-tier Nascent Soul cultivator.

After some conversation,

Li Chang’an explained his purpose.

“Fellow Daoist Ma, I’ve heard you possess a mid-grade fourth-tier array formation inheritance. I wish to exchange it for some treasures. What do you say?”

“I don’t need any treasures.”

Ma Jun shook his head slightly, his voice hoarse.

He stared at Li Chang’an, his eyes bloodshot, and said in a voice filled with hatred, “Fellow Daoist Li, I’ve heard your strength is considerable. I need you to kill two people for me. If this succeeds, I’m willing to give you that array formation inheritance, as well as all the treasures I possess!”

“Kill them?”

Li Chang’an didn’t immediately agree, but asked, “Fellow Daoist Ma, may I ask who these two are?”

“The Jade Toad True Monarch of the Five Poisons Valley of the Yan Kingdom’s Demonic Path, and the Myriad Souls True Monarch of the Netherworld Soul Sect!”

“It’s them?”

Li Chang’an was somewhat surprised.

Both of them had a grudge against him.

The Myriad Souls Old Demon had sent his disciple to Zhao Kingdom to kill him, and the Jade Toad True Monarch had just stolen his ten-thousand-year-old lightning-struck wood.

Li Chang’an asked again, “Fellow Daoist Ma, what grudge do you have against these two?”

“They killed my Daoist companion!”

Ma Jun gritted his teeth, explaining the reason for the incident.

He and his Daoist partner were buried together in their secluded coffins. They both awoke one after the other, neither intending to restore the Myriad Array Sect, only wishing to live out their lives peacefully.

But fate had other plans.

While traveling through the cultivation world, they were targeted by the Myriad Souls Demon and the Jade Toad True Monarch.

Ma Jun had barely crossed the threshold of the False Infant stage; although he possessed an inheritance of array formations, his own array skills hadn’t reached the fourth rank, making his combat strength weak.

His Daoist partner was even weaker, only at the peak of the Golden Core stage, not even a Nascent Soul.

Due to a sudden sneak attack by the Myriad Souls Demon,

Ma Jun didn’t have time to put his Daoist partner into his spirit beast pouch, watching helplessly as her soul was scattered.

He endured a fierce battle, almost burning through all his lifespan, barely escaping the two’s pursuit, clinging to life with overwhelming killing intent and hatred.

“Fellow Daoist Li, I’ve heard you easily defeated the White Tiger True Monarch, you must have mid-Nascent Soul strength. If you can kill those two for me, I’ll give you my life!”

Ma Jun pleaded with Li Chang’an, his eyes bloodshot.

He had sought help from countless people, but none were willing to assist him.

Although True Monarch Bi Chan was only a nascent soul, he had cultivated poison techniques and mastered fourth-tier spiritual poison, making

him difficult to deal with. True Monarch Wan Hun was even more extraordinary, a veteran early-stage Nascent Soul expert, and aided by a fourth-tier early-stage main soul, making him extremely difficult to kill.

Even mid-stage Nascent Soul cultivators would find it difficult to kill him.

Therefore,

Ma Jun could only place his hopes on Li Chang’an.

“Fellow Daoist Li, what do you think?”

“This… allow me to think about it.”

Li Chang’an pondered briefly.

Both of them were his enemies, and he had originally planned to kill them, but hadn’t considered doing it now.

However, with his current strength, killing them wouldn’t be difficult.

After careful consideration,

Li Chang’an nodded slightly: “Fellow Daoist Ma, I cannot guarantee this; I can only try first.”

“Thank you, Fellow Daoist Li!”

Ma Jun thanked him repeatedly, his voice filled with excitement.

“Fellow Daoist Li, I can assist you in killing those two.”

“No need for that; allow me to investigate first.”

Li Chang’an didn’t want this guy to see his methods.

After a conversation,

he bid farewell to the two and returned to the Zixia Sect.

In the following days, he continuously gathered information about Bi Chan and Wan Hun through various channels.

Luo Qiantong also compiled a report for him to review.

“According to the current information, Bi Chan is easier to deal with. Although he possesses fourth-tier spiritual poison, I have the Wan Poison Gu to cure it.”

“Apart from his poison skills, he’s not much stronger than Qian Shi.”

“Furthermore, although he is a Nascent Soul cultivator from the Five Poison Valley, he is not usually in the Five Poison Valley, but rather in his own ‘Bi Chan Palace,’ which is quite far from the Five Poison Valley…”

After analyzing for a moment, Li Chang’an made up his mind.

Kill Bi Chan first!

That night, he quietly left the Zixia Sect, used the Flying Goose Pearl, and rushed to the Five Poison Domain of Yan Kingdom at full speed.

Halfway there, a divination appeared.

[The divination has been updated]

[Today’s divination: Neutral]

[You entered the Yan Kingdom and successfully killed the Nascent Soul True Monarch Bi Chan of the Five Poisons Valley]

“A neutral divination? Not bad, as long as there are no surprises.”

Li Chang’an also performed his own divination, and the divination he received was also neutral.

He felt relieved and continued on his way.

Several hours later.

Li Chang’an arrived at the Five Poisons Domain and quickly approached the Bi Chan Palace.

Just as he was about to make his move, he suddenly sensed the auras of more than ten Nascent Soul demonic cultivators and immediately concealed his aura.

“What are these Nascent Soul old demons doing here?”

He hid in the shadows, pondering to himself.

Not long after.

Blood River, Yin Spirit, Ten Thousand Souls, and other demonic Nascent Soul cultivators appeared together and entered the Bi Chan Palace.

Li Chang’an did not know their purpose and could only wait outside.

“These guys shouldn’t stay for too long, otherwise the divination wouldn’t be neutral.”

He focused his attention and waited patiently.

…

At the same time.

Deep within the Bi Chan Palace, inside the main hall.

More than ten demonic Nascent Soul cultivators gathered to discuss matters.

The content of their discussion was clearly related to Li Chang’an.

“Bi Chan, we’ve searched all the areas we’re responsible for, but we haven’t found any trace of Li Fan. How about your area?”

“No, we’ve even searched every mortal village.”

Bi Chan Zhenjun, sitting in the main seat, shook his head.

“However, although we haven’t found Li Fan, I discovered a valuable Thunder Dao treasure.”

“It seems you’ve made quite a haul, congratulations!”

Everyone offered their congratulations.

Bi Chan Zhenjun smiled, in high spirits.

After some discussion, everyone took their leave and departed from Bi Chan Palace.

Before leaving, Qing Xie Zhenjun said to him, “Bi Chan, return to Five Poison Valley as soon as possible. It’s risky for you to be here alone. If Li Fan targets you, you’ll be in trouble.”

“Don’t worry, I’ve set up a poisonous domain around Bi Chan Palace. Li Fan definitely won’t dare to come!”

Bi Chan Zhenjun was very confident and not worried.

He laughed confidently, “If Tengshe had known how to use poison, how could he have fallen to Li Fan? Even if he couldn’t defeat him, he could have escaped!”

“Enough, don’t be so arrogant. Better safe than sorry.”

True Monarch Qingxie frowned, offering no further advice, and left Bichan Palace.

From then on, only True Monarch Bichan remained in the palace.
