Immortal of the Nine Realms

Chapter 432: The Complete Dragon Bone Heavenly Lantern

Upon returning from the palace, Fang Chen took out the Dragon Bone Heavenly Lantern. Following the method described by Mirror of the Universe, he used spiritual energy to extract the lamp oil that was originally inside and then replaced it with Dongfang Haojie's essence blood.

"Is it done now?" Fang Chen asked.

Mirror of the Universe chuckled. "Hmm, now this Dragon Bone Sky Lantern can be considered complete. Don't underestimate it just because it's only a middle-grade, yellow-rank item. Once you ignite it with spiritual energy, it will be difficult for even Nascent Soul cultivators to get close before the lamp oil burns out."

"How long can ten drops of blood essence last?" Fang Chen inquired further.

"It depends on the strength of the opponent. If it's a Nascent Soul Realm cultivator, it shouldn't be a problem to hold them back for ten breaths. If it's a Golden Core Realm cultivator, holding them back for a day and night wouldn't be an issue," Mirror of the Universe explained.

"If it can only withstand ten breaths against a Nascent Soul Realm cultivator..." Fang Chen pondered.

It may seem short, but in reality, ten breaths would be around thirty seconds, half a minute. Holding back a Nascent Soul Realm cultivator for half a minute was already a terrifying feat; within that time, many changes could occur in the battle.

The Dragon Bone Heavenly Lantern, the Binding Bell, and the Shadow Buddha Technique were all his current trump cards. Little Sword was his strongest hand. He would not use it unless absolutely necessary, and he had to save it for that female sword cultivator.

"I'm armed to the teeth now, I just have to wait for the Spirit Blood Sect to make a move."

In the following days, Fang Chen would visit the trade conference every day, occasionally playing with some Immortal Origin. With some luck, he could make a decent profit.

He used his remaining low-grade spirit stones and the ones he earned to buy all the Spirit Essence Pills. These pills were extremely beneficial for Qi Refining Realm cultivators, and even Foundation Building Realm cultivators could use them to improve their cultivation.

The next few days passed peacefully without any incidents, and Tong Hu and others continued their activities as usual, without showing any signs of suspicion.

Xia Ji handed over the Spirit Element Pills he had just bought to the sixth princess in front of a booth. "Keep these Spirit Essence Pills. Don't think they're too few."

The sixth princess was stunned. There were ten Spirit Essence Pills. Those were equivalent to nine hundred low-grade spirit stones! She never expected that her third brother was doing so well in Great Qian.

The sixth princess suddenly lowered her head while holding the bottle in her hand. "Brother, I'm sorry,"

Xia Ji was slightly puzzled. "Sorry for what?"

"For the past…."

Xia Ji laughed. "The past? We were all children back then, it's normal to have disagreements. Do you still remember those things from the past? I only remember how naive we were back then. Thinking about it now, it's quite funny actually."

Fang Chen arrived with Fang Jue, Fang Xiu, Fang Yun, and the others.

"Xia Ji, let's go enjoy ourselves at the Jade River Pavilion."

Xia Ji's eyes lit up, and he said to the sixth princess, "Let's go together. Brother Fang is now an Immortal Origin Master. You'll see something extraordinary."

The sixth princess was slightly surprised. "Immortal Origin Stone Master?"

She had just recently learned about Immortal Origin Stones, so it was quite shocking to hear that Fang Chen was an Immortal Origin Stone Master.

There was a designated area in the trade conference that exclusively sold Immortal Origin Stones. Other than Jade River Pavilion, there were also more than a dozen stalls of similar scale and all of them were from various fifth-tier empires.

"Master Fang is here again."

"Master Fang, why not come to my place today? Jade River Pavilion might not have anything good left."

"Yeah, come and take a look at our place."

Many shopkeepers greeted Fang Chen warmly on the way, and many cultivators in the vicinity instinctively followed him, leaving behind whatever they were doing.

These days, wherever Fang Chen went, business boomed. The news of Fang Chen being an Immortal Origin Stone Master had spread far and wide. Despite Great Qian having hundreds of Golden Core Realm cultivators and three Nascent Soul Realm powerhouses, there were no Immortal Origin Stone Masters. From this, one could see how rare an Immortal Origin Stone Master was.

On the other hand, Dongfang Haojie, who was chatting happily with Fairy Tianyin, couldn't help but sneer when he saw the bustling scene around the Immortal Origin District.

"What Immortal Origin Stone Master? If I weren't so deficient in blood right now, I would show you what a real Immortal Origin Stone Master is."

Thinking of that, he suddenly remembered that there had been no movement from the Spirit Blood Sect for the past few days. He couldn't help but look at Immortal Void Rush. He communicated via voice transmission, "Senior, the Spirit Blood Sect has been quiet all this time, and the trade conference is about to end. Do you think they've given up?"

"The Spirit Blood Sect won't give up so easily. Their silence means they have been preparing," Immortal Void Rush replied via sound transmission. "Just be patient and wait. Perhaps you are no longer their target."

"That's good to know." Dongfang Haojie sighed in relief. It seemed that the Spirit Blood Sect might have given up since they saw him stick close with Nascent Soul Realm experts constantly.

Dongfang Haojie turned his head to continue pestering her. "Fairy Tianyin, I'm not just talking big. After this trade conference is over, come back to Great Wei with me. I'll show you a treasure!"

Fairy Tianyin's expression showed a hint of impatience, but unfortunately, her senior brother had already left for the Immortal Origin Stone area to watch the excitement, and there was no one to stop this annoying fly from pestering her.

Fairy Tianyin suddenly paused as she furrowed her brows. She looked at the sky and said, "Wait a minute, the sky seems to have been quite the same for a long time."

Dongfang Haojie subconsciously looked up at the sky with her. "Fairy Tianyin, what do you mean by saying that the sky hasn't changed for a long time?"

Sunlight, white clouds, and a gentle breeze. Everything seemed normal. Nothing out of the ordinary.

"The clouds haven't moved for a long time!" Fairy Tianyin frowned and then turned to look at Immortal Void Rush. "Senior, something doesn't seem right."

Immortal Void Rush glanced at her. "What's wrong?"

"The clouds in the sky haven't moved for a long time," Fairy Tianyin said softly.

Immortal White Tiger smiled. "What does it matter whether the clouds in the sky moved or not? Perhaps they are tired of moving. Besides, even if they moved a bit, you wouldn't be able to tell, right?"

Immortal Void Rush explained, "Immortal White Tiger, she has been practicing at the illusion yard for several years, so she is sensitive to changes in the surroundings."

Immortal White Tiger was slightly surprised. "Hasn't the master of the Illusionary Academy stopped taking disciples for two hundred years?"

Supreme Expert Dragon Wood couldn't help but look at Fairy Tianyin for a few moments. He seemed curious as to what talent she had to have for her to catch the eye of the King of Illusion and be taken as his disciple.

Ordinary people might think that Immortal Void Rush was the one in charge of the Purple Pole Dao Academy, but in reality, the strongest in the Purple Pole Dao Academy was the King of Illusion!

Even cultivators like them at the Nascent Soul Realm didn't want to confront a figure like that. If they did, they didn't believe they had much chance of winning.

"Let me take a look," said Immortal Void Rush as she pointed a finger toward the sky.

The power of metal condensed into a flying sword and shot towards the sky. However, in the next moment, the flying sword seemed to be swallowed by something, disappearing instantly.

Immortal Void Rush couldn't sense it anymore.

"Someone has set up a large formation to trap us," said Immortal Void Rush as she turned to look at Immortal White Dragon and Supreme Expert Dragon Wood.

As expected, the Spirit Blood Sect had made a move, and they had changed their target and no longer attempted to assassinate Dongfang Haojie.

However... What they were about to do next was even more terrifying!
