Chapter 637 - 240: Invitation, Three Days, Relentless Divination (Part 2)

"Of course.

The rules have been made clear.

The Spirit Pills created will naturally be half yours."

Zhou Changwang spoke calmly.

"But this, it's too much."

Zhou Yinglong muttered.

It was indeed too much, far beyond his expectations.

After all, the cost of the Dust Suppressing Pill, with twenty portions of Spiritual Materials, was at most worth a hundred thousand Lower-Grade Spirit Stones.

Though this was all of Fang Heng's assets, it was far inferior to this batch of Dust Suppressing Spirit Pills.

A single Low Grade Dust Suppressing Pill's market price could be around three thousand Lower-Grade Spirit Stones, often valuable but unavailable.

And here, seventy pieces of Low Grade Dust Suppressing Pills amount to two hundred and ten thousand Lower-Grade Spirit Stones.

In addition, there are seven pieces of Mid-grade Dust Suppressing Pills, even if each is calculated at five thousand Lower-Grade Spirit Stones, that's still thirty-five thousand Lower-Grade Spirit Stones.

Realistically, it's even more.

In a situation of having the value but no market, the actual price will be under his control.

Even if he offered a single Low Grade Dust Suppressing Pill for five thousand Lower-Grade Spirit Stones, someone might grit their teeth and buy it.

Especially when faced with situations like Fang Yuqian, Fang Heng's grandson.

At critical moments, it can be a life-saving item.

"My rule is the rule."

Zhou Changwang said indifferently.

"Accept it.

Our Peak Master wouldn't care about these small profits."

Zheng Ajiu also spoke.

Upon hearing this, Zhou Yinglong could finally feel slightly at ease, respectfully bowed, his heart filled with excitement.

Unexpectedly, biting the bullet to repay Brother Fang's favor turned out to be profitable.

Although the materials and Pill Formula came from Brother Fang, the key was his exchange of a thousand merit points for a quota to ask the Peak Master for alchemy.

If not for this, how would there be the current harvest?

The two received results they were satisfied with, and naturally didn't dare stay here any longer, heading excitedly back to their residences.

Soon after, Zheng Ajiu spoke with slight reverence: "Peak Master.

These are the invitations received during this period.

As you have been in seclusion for alchemy, I dared not disturb and could only delay for the time being. Would you see which invitations you might agree to participate in?"

Soon after, Zheng Ajiu handed over a large stack of invitation booklets.

Zhou Changwang reached out to take them, glancing casually. Most were normal invitations from surrounding forces.

Like centennial birthday banquets, weddings, and a Foundation Establishment Cultivator's child's hundred-day birthday... Overall, they were normal events like weddings, birthday celebrations, childbirth… all joyous occasions.

Such banquets did not interest him.

Besides those, there were some cultivators holding banquets in the name of exchanging cultivation insights.

And some gatherings hosted by Pill Masters, or invitations from large cultivation clans hoping to meet him under the guise of making acquaintances...

After looking through them, Zhou Changwang casually set them down.

He said: "Reject them all."

"Ah?"

Amongst them, there were invitations from some top cultivation clans.

Especially the Wang Family.

They were, in Celestial Essence City, second only to the Qin Family in cultivation clans.

Who wouldn't take a formal invitation seriously?

The Peak Master directly declined?

"Might it be a bit improper?

Among them, there's an invitation from the Wang Family.

Though it's only for the Wang Family daughter's hundred-day birthday.

Yet anyone receiving such an invitation would send someone to attend one or two events.

The invitation clearly names the Peak Master. If the Peak Master doesn't go, it might inevitably displease the Wang Family.

This could be somewhat unfavorable for our Five Peaks Mountain Spirit Land's development."

Guo Sheng, seeing this, stepped forward and said.

"Just say I'm in seclusion.

Reject such invitations from now on.

For us cultivators, cultivation should be the priority.

If the Wang Family truly bears a grudge about this, they wouldn't have existed for so many years.

At most, it would only reduce some interactions."

Zhou Changwang waved his hand.

Then he didn't pay much more attention and directly headed to the backyard.

He truly didn't have much mind to deal with these.

Because there were only three days left until the time indicated in the White Tiger Order.

Three days.

Like a tight band hovering above his head, it made him anxious.

It seemed as if, as the time approached, enormous changes might occur.

"Could this be a kind of curse?"

Zhou Changwang sat cross-legged in the Cultivation Secret Room, with the White Tiger Order placed in front of him.

The growing unease in his heart finally decided not to wait any longer.

He began to employ the Karma Desire Technique to trace the origins of this White Tiger Order.

If it truly were a cursed type of artifact, he would throw the White Tiger Order as far away as possible, burying it deep in a distant place separated by mountains and rivers.

"Let's begin.

Hope the worst doesn't happen…"

Zhou Changwang thought to himself, his Heart Spirit moving slightly, the Power of Divine Sense transformed into flowing light, Dharma Rune Structures emerged in a special sequential order, quickly appearing and automatically operating.

A breath, two breaths, three breaths…

Up to a hundred breaths later.

Ong~!

The True Essence Power within Zhou Changwang surged rapidly.

In the blink of an eye consumed more than half.

Simultaneously.

An ethereal feeling emerged within his heart.

It seemed he could trace a certain origin, to seek a certain thing, a secret at this moment.

Very mysterious.

"What exactly is the White Tiger Order?"

Zhou Changwang, along with the ethereal power, sought for cause and effect, immediately issued an inquiry.

After a while.

A stream of information returned, rushing into his mind.

Mysterious, vague, incalculable, unknown…

Zhou Changwang's face was filled with confusion.

This indeed left him somewhat helpless.

This time, the power of cause and effect provided him with a very vague answer, belonging to a very powerful force, seemingly existing forever…

He couldn't use this inquiry to peer into the mystery within.

Everything seemed hidden behind a layer of vagueness.

However, he could faintly sense.

It's not that the Karma Desire Technique couldn't fathom, but because of its low level.

Or rather, this force is too powerful.

Thus, his Karma Desire Technique couldn't trace it.

At least, with his current Entry Level Karma Desire Technique, if he forcefully traces, it is very likely to attract some entity's attention.

Which makes it appear vague and incalculable.

"Undoubtedly.

This White Tiger Order is tremendously mysterious.

Not mentioning other things, just the densely packed Array Patterns on it are absolutely not simple.

From some mysterious major force, it's highly possible.

Just don't know whether this is good or bad for me?"

Thinking it over.

Zhou Changwang casually took out a Recovery Pill, beginning to replenish the consumed True Essence within.

Meanwhile, he also picked up the four-hundred-year brewed Red Leaf Spirit Tea, starting to sip it.

After half an hour, his Divine Sense was restored, and the True Essence Power was almost fully recovered.

Thus, he once again began casting the Karma Desire Technique.

"Is this White Tiger Order good or bad for me?"

Zhou Changwang immediately asked through the Karma Desire Technique.

Once again, the ethereal power of cause and effect issued feedback.

"Both good and bad!"

This!

Zhou Changwang was perplexed.

Though through this, he did somewhat relax.

At least judging from this, the White Tiger Order wasn't an artifact containing curses.

However, subsequent changes would put him in a passive position but also bring substantial benefits.

Of course, he didn't relax entirely because of this.

Caution above all.

He certainly wouldn't risk putting himself in danger.

Naturally, he needed to thoroughly ascertain everything to quietly wait for whatever happens after three days.

Thus, after a brief rest.

Once his Divine Sense and True Essence Power had fully recovered, he once again cast the Karma Desire Technique.

Once.

Twice!

Thrice!

Four times…

Zhou Changwang repeated.

Inquiring continuously.

Unceasingly probing.

Trying to glimpse the secret within.

Although the harvest was scarce.

But at least confirmed one point.

That this White Tiger Order itself is merely a dead object.

Won't pose any life threat to him.

And in three days following some opportunity, this White Tiger Order will incite changes.

As for the aftermath.

He remains uninformed.
