Gate of Immortality

Chapter 138: Search of Dark swamp spirit fruit

" Your strength is still not enough. You have to know that the genius of this generation has almost reached the boundary of the Violet Palace Expansion realm. In fact, Some of them already became Violet Palace Expansion Realm cultivators." Old Ghost elaborated.

" The Princes included?" Yang Shi raised his brow. " Of course, They are the Prince after all. The Royal clan spends rivers of resources for them, Moreover, their talents are very promising. Not just them, The Seed Disciples of Four Great Clans and Four Sects has their own reputation. More than half of them had reached Ninth stage of the Primordial Spirit Realm, Just a step away from Violet Palace Expansion Realm."

" It seems things aren't boring as it seems." Yang Shi smacked his lips. " But well, I still don't need to charge like a bull and challenge every one of them to fight with me, right?" Yang Shi laughed with a tinge of shamelessness. " You..." Old Ghost was speechless. " Chaotic, This youth's thoughts are too chaotic." He sighed inwardly. Is it not what powerful cultivators do? Do you have even some pride?

" Since you have become our Gold rank assassin, Another benefit you will get is, Special training and better resources." Old Ghosts slowly said. Yang Shi's ears perked up as he became interested. For current him, He just needs a better cultivation environment and hard training. " What is the training is special at?" Yang Shi asked. " To train the deadliest assassins." Old Ghost smirked. " I will see it in the future. I have to leave now." Yang Shi thought something as he turned to leave hastily, but suddenly stopped and asked back," Hey! Do you know a good Poison master? I mean, You know, The best poison."

" Poison? Although I know someone, Why do you want poison?" Old Ghost was confused. " Hehe, Just for a little safety." Yang Shi laughed. He turned around and left." This kid, Isn't simple." Old Ghost sighed. " Grandfather, That brat is just too nosy. If weren't for you, I would have broken his legs today." The black-clothed person came back as he took his hat. A beautiful face emerged from it, Like a fairy from the celestial palace. With pale moonlight illuminating her face, one can just be bewitched by her appearance. 

" Hmm, You should understand. This domain is filled with hidden dragons and crouching tigers. We have been here for a year, and look, How many geniuses are hidden here. Although resources are lacking severely than our place, it was the ancient lands of Emperors. There are many hidden abodes and secrets realms, albeit they were undiscovered." Old Ghost explained. " Anyway, Grandfather, I have got some clue about the fragment." The black clothed girl muttered slowly. "Oh?" Old Ghost raised his brows.

" There are two places, where we can find it. First, at the Dao Instruction Institute's sacred ground. The second one is Mysterious Spirit Realm." The girl said. Old Ghost frowned. " It was in Dao Instruction Institute's sacred ground, The chances of infiltration decreases a lot. It was in Mysterious Spirit Realm, Finding it would be hard in a vast place, like searching for needles in the haystack."

" But I think we should find it in Mysterious Spirit Realm. There is only a year to the opening. Not to mention, Our enemies might also come." The girl snorted. " Hmm, I guess, I need to rope that kid." Old Ghost said. " Maybe, he can give us some nice surprise." " Dan, every time I see, I wanted to punch him." The girl scoffed. " Well, He has already seen your face, so, you don't need to hide anymore." Old Ghost sighed. " His eye technique is very impressive, to able to cancel the effect of your Concealing stone." He chuckled.

Yang Shi was running here and there, not knowing where he was. " Fuck, I never came to this part of city." Yang Shi was confused. All he could see are tall and luxurious buildings. " I think this the aristocratic area." Yang Shi thought. He was thinking about going to Golden Fire Tower. According to Samsara Emperor, He needs to accumulate a certain amount of luck, to help Bai Ruxue. 

Luck is an illusory thing, but it influences a person's life greatly. For example, If a person had good luck, they might fell from the highest mountain, but they might find a heaven defying cultivation manual after their misfortune. On the other hand, with bad luck, one might just slip over a banana peel but die due to getting hit by some weird and dangerous thing on the ground. Chances like these are rare, yet sometimes it happens as a coincidence.

The best way to gather some luck, is, of course, to do good things and accumulate good karma. But it's only for beginner cultivators, who aren't under the watch of heavenly laws. " Ugh, It has been more than a month since I went to Golden Fire Tower. Those old geezers might eat me whole. I still have monthly missions unfulfilled. But well, I have a shit load of Spirit Grade weapons. So, I will just give it  to them." Yang Shi thought.

For Golden Fire Towers, certified Blacksmiths and Alchemists had to do some monthly tasks. Most of them are from various cultivators and small powerhouses. It gives them merit points, which can be used to exchange for various resources in Golden Fire Tower. Golden Fire Tower control most Alchemists and Blacksmiths of Azure Feather Ancient Kingdom. Every big and small kingdom has a Golden Fire Tower, So it's true power is immeasurable.

But most of Blacksmiths and Alchemist uses Golden Fire Tower as a certification center. They leave after getting their badge. They just join more powerful clans or sects. After all, Who wants to bottle up in one place. So, only a few people choose to stay there as elders. Yang Shi also had the same idea, but then, He thought its the best place to carry his plan. " I will go there and accept missions. Then along with building my reputation, I can earn good karma." Yang Shi thought inwardly.

" Hmm, maybe I can get the Dark Swamp Spirit Fruit." Yang Shi muttered. He isn't going back to Eastern Mountain to find another herb. He has to leave for the capital in two days. After some time, Yang Shi finally reached the majestic golden tower. Although it was night, The bustling is still there. As he were to enter the inner area, The guards halted him, but after showing his badge, They let him go. { Author: What? You expecting some guard face slapping scene?}

" Master Blacksmith Yang Shi reporting." Yang Shi went to the mission table. " Oh, You actually came back?" Suddenly, Elder Lin emerged from nowhere. Yang Shi was startled, " Was I not supposed to come?" He laughed. " Not really, But I thought some powerful clan or sect might have roped you in." Elder Lin smiled. " Well, I am low key enough not to get noticed by them." Yang Shi smiled wryly.

" So, Why you are here?" Elder Lin asked. Yang Shi took out the catalog and recited, " There are 23 orders this month. 15 of them are low-rank Spirit Grade weapons, 6 mid grade, and 2 high grade weapons. Here, I want to submit weapon for all." Yang Shi waved his hands as piles of weapons fell on the floor. " Are you sure it's not stolen weapons?" Elder Lin asked. " You can check. Each of them is crafted by my personal Spirit flame. These are all brand new, unused weapons." Yang Shi explained.

" Good, Very good. You will receive 500 merit points and a million gold coins." Elder Lin nodded. " What? A million?" Yang Shi was astonished. " Yes, You have single handedly cleared this months orders, so after our commission, you will receive an appropriate amount. Moreover, Its not that we are lacking gold, though we earn less than Alchemists." Elder Lin chuckled. 

One had to know that Cultivation pills are more demanded in quantity than Spirit weapons. Pills are one time use items, whereas Spirit grade treasures can use for years and years. So most people buy only one or two weapons in their lives where they bought many pills in a week. Even if their weapons are damaged, at most they will come here to repair it, not to buy a new one. Nonetheless, Blacksmiths has the same reputation as Alchemists and Runemasters.

" You have a good amount of merit points, so you can exchange for any stuff you like." Elder Lin said. Yang Shi nodded as he went to the treasure hall, where one can get resources. He saw a short old man sitting on the chair. " Elder, I would like to know if there is a Dark Swamp Spirit Fruit here?" Yang Shi cupped his fist. The old man raised his brows, " So, You are young master Blacksmith. Dark Swamp Spirit Fruit? No, Currently,  We don't have any." He informed.

Yang Shi's face turned weird. First it was Soul Calming Grass, Then Dark Swamp Spirit Fruit. " Do we even have a herb garden, or it's all just rumors?" Yang Shi muttered. " Kid, Some medicinal herbs are just rare, while some are monopolized by sects and clans. Take Dark Swamp Spirit Fruit as an example. It grows in a dark environment, with an abundance of Yin qi and Dark qi. So, Demonic Sound Palace is the one that controls such types of spirit herbs."

" Even we want to grow it up here, It just too time taking." The old man shrugged. Yang Shi smiled helplessly. " Oh, since you have so many merit points, you can visit our library and find suitable Fire controlling arts or historical records." He added.

" Alright." Yang Shi nodded as he took his gold coins and turn around. " Wait a minute! Demonic Sound Palace!" Yang Shi suddenly remembered that he saw a special commission from a disciple of Demonic Sound Palace. " I have to go to mission hall to check." He walked hurriedly to the mission hall.
