Chapter 346: It’s Good That You Got Something, How Dare You Be Picky?!

“Hehe nope. I’m not talking about medicines here. We have two complete rank four advancement formulas. One of them was provided by the institution, the Multi Illusion Wine. Because Grandpa Bo gave up his position as our Shang Clan Patriarch to focus on the institution, they gave the formula to us. The second is the Hundred Days Longevity Intoxication. Only several other core members know that we have this second formula. The former will be greatly beneficial to cultivators who train in illusory type skills. The latter is more useful for cultivators who have wood attributed extermination origins.”

Seeing as Shang Pei was remaining silent, Shang Xia continued, “Aunt, which advancement formula do you think suits you more?”

“How… How would I know?” Shang Pei sighed. “You might not know this, but advancement formulas are hard to come by! Many cultivators just use what they can find. It’s good to be able to use an advancement formula, why would we be choosy about it?”

Shang Xia laughed out loud. “How can that be… Since you have an option, you should choose the one that suits you the best. Moreover, your entry to the Martial Extermination Realm would be a significant milestone for our Shang Clan!”

“Why is that?” Shang Pei frowned.

“Today, my grandfather and Grandpa Ke entered the Martial Extermination Realm. If someone from the second generation also manages to advance, the image of our Shang Clan will be greatly boosted! We will finally possess some semblance of a great clan!”

Shang Pei coughed once and muttered, “Actually…”

“?” Shang Xia tilted his head to the side when he noticed that she didn’t complete her sentence.

“Nothing…” Changing the topic all of a sudden, Shang Pei started to talk about something else. “Fifth Uncle is really a great guy… With our Shang Clan’s accumulations, it’s amazing if we manage to produce a set or two of rank four advancement medicines. Obtaining a strand of extermination origin is the difficult thing. For him to call me back now, it might be because the creation of the Tongyou Mysterious World allowed several strands of loose extermination origins to be produced…”

Shang Xia nodded. “Yes. It’s definitely possible for that to happen… After all, the eruption of an Origin Tide usually means that some good stuff will be born.”

“Even so, there must be many people in the institution who are waiting to receive an extermination origin. My turn won’t come so soon…”

Shang Xia didn’t reply as he knew that whatever she said was true.

“Originally, my best chance of entering the Martial Extermination Realm is in this place. With the amount of energy here, the optimal conditions are right in front of me… What a pity!”

Pressing his lips together, Shang Xia whispered, “Actually…”

A soft chuckle escaped Shang Pei’s lips and she chided, “Brat, why are you copying me now? If you have something to say, spit it out!”

“I was trying to tell you that it might not be too late…” Shang Xia sighed.

Silence descended and neither of them spoke a word for some time.

Only after a short while did Shang Pei’s voice ring through the air again. “What do you mean?”

“I have a set of rank four advancement medicine and a complete rank four advancement formula with me… Moreover, the spirit cave we are in was used to nurture the Yin Water Mysterious Extermination Origin. I collected it in my Spirit Extermination Gourd. I don’t know if you wish to take the risk…”

Footsteps rang through the spirit cave all of a sudden.

With the sound of water splashing, a figure appeared in front of Shang Xia. She extended her face as close to Shang Xia as possible before growling, “Do you know what you’re talking about right now?”

The smile on Shang Xia’s face became wider and he continued, “The White Deer Paradise planned to give Yang Hu A rank four advancement formula, the Exquisite Muddled Liquid. He gave his son the medicine, the Exquisite Muddle, and planned to use the extermination origin here to boost his son into the Martial Extermination Realm!”

“Do you have all of those?” Shang Pei gasped.

Nodding slowly, Shang Xia grinned. “Yup. I have it on me right now. “

“Aren’t you afraid that I’ll rob you right now?” An aggressive light flashed through Shang Pei’s eyes and she growled.

Shang Xia maintained his happy grin and he snorted. “Why would an elder snatch something that belongs to her nephew? Moreover… Hehe. Third Aunt, you don’t seem to be my opponent right now.”

A trace of irritation filled her heart and she snapped. “Do you think I’ll be afraid of you? A Martial Intent Realm cultivator who just reached the large completion stage?”

The smile on Shang Xia’s face didn’t fade as he continued to look at her.

With her expression sinking slightly, she straightened her back and groaned. “Alright, What plans do you have? You can’t possibly be thinking of giving me something so important without anything in return.”

“I harbor no evil intentions. I feel that a chance like this won’t come around often and you shouldn’t miss it. It’s one thing for me not to possess an advancement medicine or knowledge about an extermination origin, but now that I have it, there’s no need to waste such a good chance. Moreover, we’re all from the Shang Clan. I’m not giving away benefits to random people!” Shang Xia explained.

“Is that it?” A frown appeared on Shang Pei’s face.

Shang Xia nodded sincerely. “Yep.”

Taking a long breath, Shang Pei sighed, “Looks like he was right. He was talking about you when he said that I might run into a huge opportunity…”

“Who?” The grin on Shang Xia’s face faded a little. “Are you talking about Youshang?”

“Brat, seriously, what do you think of my daughter? She might have been married in the past, but…” Shang Pei changed the topic again.

Waving his hands in dismissal, Shang Xia snapped, “This isn’t a deal between us! I’m giving you the items for free! This doesn’t concern Hai Min at all!”

After he spoke, he retrieved the advancement medicine before taking the Spirit Extermination Gourd. He placed it before him immediately.

.

“Shang Xia, are you really not going to reconsider?” Shang Pei muttered.

Just as Shang Xia extended his hands to take back the items he placed on the ground, Shang Pei moved a little more quickly than him. She grabbed the advancement medicine and gourd.

Her footsteps rang through the spirit cave as her voice rang in Shang Xia’s ears. “Regardless of whether I succeed, you need to take care of Hai Min and Yuanyuan. Also…”

Pausing for a second, a soft whistle flew towards Shang Xia.

Grabbing the item, Shang Xia discovered a six sided object that seemed to resemble a type of key.

“This is a key to a secret region in the Taihang Mountains. In the past, I discovered it with my husband. The two of us didn’t know what was good for us and we thought that we ran into a huge opportunity. We rushed in there without much thought and I was the only one who managed to emerge. In the future when you explore the secret region, please bring his corpse out…” Shang Pei sighed.

Shang Xia replied, “Aunt Pei, you can go there yourself after you advance!”

“No. Everyone can only enter the secret region once. I already wasted my chance.”

Shang Xia muttered, “What did you discover when you entered?”

Hesitating slightly Shang Pei eventually replied. However, she didn’t seem sure about her answer. “There seems to be a damaged divine weapon in there…”

“Divine weapon?!” Shang Xia jumped in fright.

It was actually a divine weapon!

Even if it was damaged, a divine weapon was something that had a soul! It was extremely rare. It would definitely be stronger than high-grade weapons.

Thinking about high-grade weapons, Shang Xia couldn’t help but turn to look at his Scarlet Star Spear.

It was extremely well-made for a mid-grade weapon, and it could definitely be upgraded to a high-grade spear in the future.

The matter of the upgrade was also starting to become urgent. After Shang Xia comprehended and unleashed his eighth and ninth moves, tiny cracks appeared on the spear.

Those cracks were the effect of his tyrannical Origin True Qi, but Shang Xia could tell that they would affect his weapon if he allowed the problem to fester.

In other words, even mid-grade weapons couldn’t withstand his qi anymore!

He needed to change his weapon as soon as possible. It had to be something that could withstand his tyrannical qi!

With the information he gained from Shang Pei, he finally discovered a ray of hope of solving his problem. While he was thinking of all the possibilities, a dense fragrance filled the spirit cave.

Gathering his thoughts, Shang Xia knew that Shang Pei was about to attempt to charge into the Martial Extermination Realm!

She was much more decisive than Shang Xia had thought.

The moment she ingested the advancement medicine, a terrifying aura filled the spirit cave. The Yin Water Mysterious Extermination Origin assimilated into her body, causing great changes to her dantian. A huge amount of energy in the spirit cave poured into her body without any restraint.

The thick mist that filled the cave instantly thinned, and the streams of energy that were being transferred to the bridge became redirected to her. Earlier, Shang Xia’s cultivation caused two streams to close completely as he sucked away enough energy from them. Now, four more strands were directed at Shang Pei. The energy that flowed back to the institution became a lot slower than before!
