Chapter 2949: The Expensive Communication Celestial Talisman
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Hu Lin Yi, the Emperor of the Supporting Fall Nation, did not imagine even his wildest dreams that the purple-clad young man in front of him was just a Heaven Stage Overarching Heavenly Supreme Celestial! After all, this was the same young man who had easily blocked the all-out attack from Huang Jia Long, the Young Master of the City Governor’s estate in Passage City, and also defeated Huang Jia Long with just one move. Even his son, Hu Ji Yong, the Fourth Prince of the Supporting Fall Nation, was far from being able to defeat Huang Jia Long with a single move. Before Duan Ling Tian’s appearance, his son was widely regarded as the most talented person, second only to him, in the Supporting Fall Nation. He had never even considered the possibility that Duan Ling Tian had concealed his cultivation base and had easily assumed Duan Ling Tian was a peak Overarching Heavenly Supreme Celestial. Who would have thought Duan Ling Tian was just a Heaven Stage Overarching Heaven Supreme Celestial?
This meant that as a Heaven Stage Overarching Heavenly Supreme Celestial, Duan Ling Tian still had room to increase his strength as his cultivation improved. On the contrary, unless his son broke through and became a Celestial Duke or mastered a Royal Grade Celestial Method or Royal Grade Divine Ability, his son, a peak Overarching Heavenly Supreme Celestial, could no longer increase his strength.
‘Duan Ling Tian is already so strong when he’s just Heaven Stage Overarching Heavenly Supreme Celestial… How strong would he be when he breaks through and becomes a peak Overarching Heavenly Supreme Celestial?’ Hu Lin Yi looked at Duan Ling Tian as he shuddered inwardly. ‘If he successfully breaks through and becomes a peak Overarching Heavenly Supreme Celestial, he’ll be the strongest Overarching Heavenly Supreme Celestials in the Profound Nether Mansion, right?’ He gulped, and his expression turned solemn when he thought about this.
After a beat, Hu Lin Yi asked Duan Ling Tian, “Duan… Duan Ling Tian, do you really plan to join the Three Sects and Two Clans?” Based on Duan Ling Tian’s strength, he was certain that Duan Ling Tian had an extraordinary background. Therefore, he was worried that Duan Ling Tian did not intend to join the Three Sects and Two Clans. If that happened, regardless of how talented or outstanding Duan Ling Tian was, he would not be rewarded by the Three Sects and Two Clans.
“Your Majesty, don’t worry. I’ll definitely join the Three Sects and Two Clans.” Duan Ling Tian could guess Hu Lin Yi’s thoughts so he looked at Hu Lin Yi sincerely and responded without any hesitation to reassure Hu Lin Yi.
Hu Lin Yi nodded before he said, “The Profound Spirit Flower and the Golden Nematode are very rare medicinal herbs… I only have the Profound Spirit Flower. Neither I nor the palace has the Golden Nematode…” As he spoke, he raised his hand, and a flower appeared out of thin air in his hand. The flower had nine petals and shone with a faint light. Although the flower had been plucked for a long time, it showed no sign of wilting. It was still oddly fresh.
Hu Lin Yi handed the Profound Spirit Flower to Duan Ling Tian as he said, “I came across this flower by chance a few years ago. Since you want it, I’ll give it to you… Anyway, have you found a Celestial Alchemist who can refine the Profound Golden Pill for you?”
“Thank you, Your Majesty… I owe you a favor.” Duan Ling Tian took the Profound Spirit Flower without any hesitation. “Your Majesty, you don’t have to worry about me finding a Celestial Alchemist to refine the Profound Golden Pill.”
Hu Lin Yi’s eyes widened. Although he had mentally prepared himself for this, he was still shocked. Even if he could find a Celestial Alchemist capable of refining the Profound Golden Pill, he still had to spend a large sum of money to pay the Celestial Alchemist to help him refine the Profound Golden Pill. When he regained his senses, he said, “Among the two main ingredients to refine the Profound Golden Pill, the Golden Nematode is even rarer than the Profound Spirit Flower. I will order my men to pay attention to any information regarding the Golden Nematode. If I hear anything, I’ll notify you as soon as I can.”
Duan Ling Tian’s eyes lit up. With Hu Lin Yi’s help, he would only need to expend half the effort to search for the Golden Nematode.
“Thank you, Your Majesty.” After thanking Hu Lin Yi, Duan Lin Tian finally took his leave.
…
After returning to the Origin Gathering Hall, Duan Ling Tian used a Communication Celestial Talisman to send a message to Huang Jia Long.
The Communication Celestial Talisman Duan Ling Tian used was a relatively high-grade Communication Celestial Talisman in the Devata Realms. One would have to leave one’s soul mark on the talisman in order to send it. Theoretically, nobody, not even a Celestial Emperor, would be able to intercept it. This was because the message was conveyed through the soul mark on the Communication Celestial Talisman. Needless to say, this Communication Celestial Talisman was far more precious than ordinary Communication Celestial Talismans. Even ordinary Communication Celestial Talismans inscribed by Celestial Kings were inferior to this Communication Celestial Talisman.
Duan Ling Tian had obtained this Communication Celestial Talisman from the Imperial family of the Supporting Fall Nation after he won a place to enter the Southern Heaven Ancient Realm. At the same time, he was also given a talisman bearing Hu Lin Yi’s soul mark to make it easier for him to directly communicate with Hu Lin Yi.
Naturally, not everyone who won a place to enter the Southern Heaven Ancient Realm received such special treatment. Duan Ling Tian was told that apart from Hu Ji Yong, only Huang Jia Long, Huang Jia Chao, and him received this Communication Celestial Talisman.
Even the mysterious woman, a sectless cultivator, who possessed a Royal Grade Celestial Weapon did not receive such special treatment. Regardless, the woman did not seem to need it. Duan Ling Tian had heard from Huang Jia Long that the old woman who accompanied the mysterious woman was a One Basic Celestial King and also a sectless cultivator! The mysterious had participated in the Southern Heaven Combat to win a place in entering the Southern Heaven Ancient Realm so she could join one of the Three Sects and Two Clans.
According to Huang Jia Long, all these were told by Hu Lin Yi to his father, Huang Yuan Fei, the City Governor of Passage City.
In the Supporting Fall Nation, Huang Yuan Fei was regarded as a highly-capable man. It was not an exaggeration to call him the right-hand man of the Emperor of the Supporting Fall Nation.
A long time had passed since Duan Ling Tian had sent the Communication Celestial Talisman out, but he had yet to receive a response. He wondered out loud, slightly puzzled, “Did I make a mistake? Did I not use it correctly?” It was his first time using this Communication Celestial Talisman after all.
“According to the person who gave me this Communication Celestial Talisman on behalf of the Emperor of the Supporting Fall Nation, the speed of this Communication Celestial Talisman is extremely fast… Huang Jia Long should’ve received it a long time ago…”
Duan Ling Tian was still pondering on the matter when he heard Huang Jia Long’s voice from outside the courtyard. “Brother Duan!”
As soon as Liu Guang Lin led Huang Jia Long to Duan Ling Tian, Duan Ling Tian asked in confusion, “Why did you personally make a trip here? You could have just sent me a message, right?”
Upon hearing Duan Ling Tian’s words, Huang Jia Long’s mouth twitched. “Brother Duan, don’t you know how precious this kind of Communication Celestial Talisman is? My father only gave me three. Except for my fifth brother and me, my other brothers were only given one each. His Majesty gave you this Communication Celestial Talisman so that you can request for help if you’re in danger.”
“Help? Is the speed of this Communication Celestial Talisman really that fast?” Duan Ling Tian was taken aback. Although he had been told that the Communication Celestial Talisman bearing Hu Lin Yi’s soul mark could be used if he was in danger, he did not think the talisman would be able to notify Hu Lin Yi in a timely manner. For this reason, he did not even bother to use the talisman when Li Wei and Hu Lie, a sectless cultivator whom Li Wei hired, attempted to kill him. First of all, he was afraid of alerting Li Wei if he sent the Celestial Talisman. That would only infuriate Li Wei and make him attack sooner. At that time, he might not even have time to use the consumable Royal Grade Celestial Weapon. Second, he did not trust the Communication Celestial Talisman’s ability much. After all, the consumable Royal Grade Celestial Weapon was much more reliable.
“Of course!” Huang Jia Long replied, “As soon as you use the Communication Celestial Talisman, the owner of the soul mark you would instantly receive the message. This kind of Communication Celestial Talisman is very precious. In the black market in the Supporting Fall Nation, it sells for 100 prominent Celestial Crystals. There’s often a high demand, but the supply is low.” A distressed expression could be seen on his face as he looked at Duan Ling Tian. “Brother Duan, if you need to speak to me in the future, you can just send Guan Lin to look for me. There’s no need to use this Communication Celestial Talisman…”
“What?! This Communication Celestial Talisman is selling for 100 prominent Celestial Crystals each?!”
Duan Ling Tian and Liu Guang Lin were dumbfounded when they heard Huang Jia Long’s words. They did not expect the Communication Celestial Talisman to be so precious! 100 prominent Celestial Crystals were the equivalent of 10,000 mediocre Celestial Crystals! The Celestial Crystal Vein controlled by the Supporting Fall Nation’s Imperial family was only a mediocre Celestial Crystal Vein! It mostly produced mediocre Celestial Crystals, and prominent Celestial Crystals that appeared were pitifully few.
“Even a Duke Grade Celestial Weapon is only worth 1,000 mediocre Celestial Crystals, right? This means this Communication Celestial Talisman is worth ten Duke Grade Celestial Weapons?” Liu Guang Lin muttered to himself.
The value of Duke Grade Celestial Weapons in the Supporting Fall Nation was almost the same as the borderlands. Liu Guang Lin had learned about this after arriving at the Supporting Fall Nation.
“Duke Grade Celestial Weapons?” Huang Jia Long shook his head and smiled. “Guang Lin, this kind of Communication Celestial Talisman is worth, at least, 15 Duke Grade Celestial Weapons on the black market. This kind of Communication Celestial Talisman is much rarer than Duke Grade Celestial Weapons… The Communication Celestial Talisman is crafted by masters of Formation, and its effect is equivalent to a teleportation array. As far as I know, only Formation masters at the level of Royal Grade Celestial Alchemists and Celestial Weapon Craftsmen are able to produce such a Communication Celestial Talisman. Formation masters are both proficient in refining pills and forging weapons since they needed to know the secrets of formations contained in high-grade Celestial Weapons and Celestial Pills.”
