The Journey of Immortal Cultivation

Chapter 1070 - 585: It... It’s Emerging!

These people of the Jiuxiao Sect, even if they don’t partake in mortal affairs, must purchase Elixirs, right? They must consume Spirit Stones, right? Low-level disciples must still eat grains, right?

To say nothing else, every morning upon awakening, thousands or tens of thousands await you to meet their needs, this terrifying feeling, Ning Xiaoxian, who truly manages Hidden Stream, deeply understands. Thus, the Jiuxiao Sect does not completely sever ties with the outside world, at least they often sell Fortune Gold to outside sects and chambers of commerce, then purchase various necessities.

Such a closed sect actually sends people out to seek the Nanming Lihuo Sword, it can only make Ning Xiaoxian marvel at the incredible allure of the Divine Artifact, even a Great Sect like this can’t remain calm. Yet——

"The Divine Artifact chooses its master? The Nanming Lihuo Sword was brought forth in the world for her?" She pondered for a long time, only feeling this matter was quite mystical. However, in this world, there are too many paranormal events, which cannot be fully trusted nor completely doubted. She immediately thought of Quan Shifang’s process of acquiring the Purple Lightning Sword, wasn’t it said to be his fortune too? And the Soul Devouring Needle, well, now it has become the Soul-devouring Arrow. Back then, its arrowhead wasn’t directly aimed at her? And within the vast realm of the Southern Continent, she coincidentally gathered three components of the Soul-devouring Arrow, two of which were obtained from mortals and low-cultivation demons. Who dares to say this isn’t fate’s prank?

For cultivators possessing Divine Skills, the Heavenly Dao Power is also indeed intimidating. She herself has been a beneficiary, naturally understanding how powerful this "predestined" force can be. But letting go of the Nanming Lihuo Sword, letting that little girl get it, wouldn’t that be a great joke? Changtian is still waiting to use this sword to slash his way out of prison, and she’s even refined the Gold Essence.

Everything is in place, how can she let this East Wind slip away?

Moreover, she came according to the divinatory signs, whether it was Mr. Yan or Ning Yu, both said her fortune lies in the east. Does this imply she is also one of the destined, one of those meant to obtain this great fortune?

By now, she also generally confirmed that the most likely place for the Nanming Lihuo Sword to appear indeed is within this Central Capital!

This sword must be hers, and only hers! The people she’s offended are numerous, as they say, debts are easier to bear when they are many, fleas don’t bite when they are plenty. With Yin Jiu You the monster blocking the way, what’s another stubborn Jiuxiao Sect to be against her?

She frowned slightly and turned to Jiu Mo standing beside her, "I need you to do me a small favor."

The sun rises in the east and sets with the moon, day and night spin like beads.

In God Demon Prison, within Demon Transformation Spring, Ning Xiaoxian completed the final breath regulation, releasing a long breath.

She took a few steps forward, planted a deep kiss on Changtian’s thin lips, then rested her forehead on his regal Heaven, caressed his handsome face, and whispered, "Hopefully there’s good news today. Wait patiently, I’ll be back soon."

A light snow fell at night, but by the time of the rooster crowing, the sky cleared. As she walked out, she saw indeed a round crimson sun leap up from the eastern horizon, instantly casting all manner of rays, adorning the altocumulus clouds with a noble and beautiful golden edge.

This color, indeed resembles Changtian’s eye color. She smiled slightly, her mood instantly improved.

The metal needed by Faceless had been fully acquired, so today she took Jiu Mo and Qi Zai along with her.

Purple aura surged across the sky above Central Capital, evidently, the capital’s Qi Fortune was at its peak.

Since the Bai Yujing auction had reached the sixth day, most buyers had either obtained their desired items or witnessed them being bought by others, and thus the number of people in Mirror World decreased significantly. When she crossed the Rainbow Bridge in front of Star-picking Tower, she saw only a hundred or two people walking about, incomparable to the seven or eight hundred bustling figures and carriages of the previous days.

Truth be told, in these few days, the notable taverns, clubs, brothels, and other Gold Caves in Central Capital had business booming like oil cooking in a raging fire. Many cultivators or demons from the auction venue, whether pleased or disappointed, came here to drink before returning. Drunk demons throwing tantrums are indeed terrifying, hence, for the past few days, Ning Xiaoxian had lost interest in going out for amusement.

The Bai Yujing auction still had two days remaining. Throughout the auction, items continued to flow into the auction venue, mostly consigned by late-arriving sellers or treasures of buyers insufficiently rich who pawned them outright. So experienced and free-time guests would linger until the end to see if any desired treasures would emerge for selection.
