Chapter 1040: Chapter 369: Comprehension Further Enhanced, Natural Tier (Ten-Thousand-Word Chapter) (Part 4)

The current Great Tang is unstable, with disturbances erupting all around.

For now, it’s primarily the Great Demons causing chaos, but once this chaos spreads, there will inevitably be numerous calamities. Hence, Shen Qubing has asked this question.

Since Wei Ancheng’s death, after Xing Feng took over, the Blood River Sect has been quite low-key over the past few years.

However, due to their historically poor reputation, Shen Qubing thought it over and still mentioned the Blood River Sect.

As for the Golden City Stronghold, it’s rather straightforward.

"Ghost King" Zonghan, related to Inner Mount Shu in the Netherworld.

"What I want to inquire about is a kind of Spiritual Object."

At this moment, Saturn Earth Radiance Fang Yue said, "I’d like to ask if anyone currently possesses Earth Essence Yuan?"

Subsequently, Lei Jun did not receive the answer he wanted.

Regarding Luo Yuan, the current Great Tang human realm cultivators seem to have a limited understanding of it.

Lei Jun did not press the matter.

He went to find Taiyin Yueyao.

He had the Qilin Saliva that the other party needed.

This was one of the gains Tang Xiaotang and Xu Yuanzhen made earlier while clearing Huang Xuanpu’s retreat in the Northern Border.

However, at that time, everyone’s attention was focused on a few Talisman Decrees related to Penglai.

Qilin Saliva is considered quite an outstanding Spiritual Treasure, but currently, no one at Dragon Tiger Mountain urgently needs it.

Therefore, Lei Jun chose to chat with Taiyin Yueyao.

If the other party had treasures like the Great Void Bindi Lotus, Earth Surge Sky Star, or Shattering Void Return Origin Stone, it would be even better.

However, it seemed that Taiyin Yueyao was currently chatting privately with someone else.

Lei Jun then sent a message to Mercury Water Luminary.

He also had the Reincarnation Frost Dew.

This was a spoils from the time of Banishing Vajra Temple.

For Lei Jun, it was not very useful.

He brought it back mainly for his senior brother, Wang Guiyuan.

However, Wang Guiyuan had no need for it.

Lei Jun kept it, originally considering that in the future, Maitreya might need it, but unexpectedly, Mercury Water Luminary mentioned it first, and Future Maitreya showed little reaction upon hearing the name Reincarnation Frost Dew.

"Reincarnation Frost Dew is something I urgently need," said Mercury Water Luminary directly. "What do you want in return?"

Lei Jun: "Do you have any Innate Treasure?"

Mercury Water Luminary immediately expressed regret: "Currently, I don’t have any."

Lei Jun remained calm: "Since you’re seeking Reincarnation Frost Dew, you must have prepared something?"

Mercury Water Luminary replied: "Yes, I have two decent Spiritual Objects here: one is the Fixed Sky Cloud Gauze, and the other is the Thundercloud Essence."

After a brief calculation, Lei Jun didn’t demand a two-for-one trade; he simply said, "I’ll exchange Reincarnation Frost Dew for your Fixed Sky Cloud Gauze."

"Thank you very much," said Mercury Water Luminary. "The method, time, and place of the exchange are all up to you to decide."

After arranging with Mercury Water Luminary, Taiyin Yueyao soon sent a message: "I was just talking to someone else; please pardon any negligence."

"No problem," replied Lei Jun. "I have Qilin Saliva here."

Taiyin Yueyao: "Regarding Luo Yuan, my knowledge is very limited."

Lei Jun: "Do you have any Innate Treasure at hand?"

Taiyin Yueyao: "I do have an Innate Treasure, but only one; it’s called Miluo Shiwen Jade."

Lei Jun thought to himself, a Harmony of Jade Pure’s Innate Spiritual Object indeed...

It’s hard to say if the other party really only has this one Innate Spiritual Object, but given Lei Jun’s status, there seems to be some guesswork involved, which is why they offered a Spiritual Object clearly suited for a Taoist Sect’s cultivator as a trade.

As for Taiyin Yueyao himself, according to Lei Jun’s earlier speculation, the other party practices the Confucian Sect’s path.

Qilin Saliva can indeed be useful, whether for regular cultivation or for arranging sacrifices; it is a rare and precious Spiritual Object.

Although he didn’t trade for the three things he wanted most, Lei Jun didn’t want to push it: "Alright, Miluo Shiwen Jade for Qilin Saliva."

At present, the Taiqing Eight Scenic Treasures Raincoat is still warming and nurturing, being repaired.

But with Lei Jun’s current cultivation realm and supernatural powers both rising steadily, when he intends to conceal his traces, there are already very few in the Great Tang human realm who can see through his whereabouts.

Thus, Lei Jun easily brought back the Miluo Shiwen Jade and the Fixed Sky Cloud Gauze.

He quietly left the mountain, and quietly returned to the mountain.

Following that, Celestial Master Lei continued to silently accumulate his cultivation while warming and nurturing various Spiritual Objects.

Time gradually entered summer.

Around the Great Tang, the demon chaos had not subsided.

But in the short term, it hadn’t caused too much detrimental impact.

In the east, King Sea Chrysanthemum was being pursued across the vast ocean by a certain state preceptor, never able to entirely shake them off, relying on strong regeneration and recovery abilities, constantly resorting to the lizard-tail severing strategy, and with the deep sea and far ocean environment, barely avoiding being completely trapped.

In the north, although Lord Black Mountain advanced menacingly, his arrogance was similarly suppressed by Prince Zhao Zhang Teng.

First defending against the foreign invasion at the Northern Border, then pacifying the Great Demon havoc.

The old prince’s prestige had recently been rising high over the past year.

In the west, the demon race from the Western Regions, after initial losses, had not fully recovered its Primordial Qi until now. Although there were gradually Great Demons of the Upper Three Heavens realm appearing, there was still no new Ninth Heavenly Layer Great Demon rising.

Towards the Snowy Plateau, there were rumors of the Snowy Region Sky Eagle showing signs near Chuanxi, but until now, there hadn’t been any actual appearance.

The Xiao Clan beyond Longwai and the Mount Shu Sect remained vigilant.

In the south, Seventh Heavenly Layer and Eighth Heavenly Layer Great Demons had successively emerged.

But the Southern Wilderness had not seen the Nine-winged Golden Centipede, the most prominent figure in recent years.

Thus, despite some disturbances in the Southern Wilderness, it remained largely manageable.

"It’s not entirely good news."

Lei Jun discussed relevant reports with his master, Master Yuan Mobai, who had just emerged from seclusion: "Great Demons are not entirely without intelligence. On the contrary, some of the demon race are very perceptive; they probably also sense anomalies in various Void Gateways."

Disturbances often arise from the Great Demons.

However, anomalies in the Void Gateways might cause some of the demon race to wait, thereby seeking better opportunities.
