Chapter 361: Sunset Willow Spirit Awakening Needle

Tian Mengzi nodded slightly and replied with another voice transmission. “It hasn’t been long since I entered the Martial Intent Realm. I only joined these gatherings twice in the past and in the past two times, Zhao Fengchun also started the gathering off with a trade. He would usually ask for a rank four advancement formula or information about extermination origins. In the past, everyone would burst into laughter after his offer. After all, no one would bother trading with him even if they had that information.”

Sun Haiwei also added at the side, “I attended one gathering before, and during that time, I can confirm that he was looking for information regarding ways to enter the Martial Extermination Realm.”

Shang Xia sighed softly. “... It’s no wonder… For him to do this now, many people might guess that Zhao Hengchun had already entered the Martial Extermination Realm!”

“It might be a tactic they’re using to release the news that Zhao Hengchun has already broken through!” Sun Haiwei whispered.

Tian Mengzi nodded in response. “I’m afraid other than the four great clans, Martial Extermination Realm experts are going to appear in other powers…”

Their gazes landed on Shang Xia unintentionally after they spoke.

They were clearly warning him that the situation in the Tongyou City might change soon.

The two of them weren’t the only ones who discovered the hidden meaning behind Zhao Fengchun’s actions. Everyone’s gaze landed on the man and were met with an indifferent expression.

Shang Xia was equally as calm and instead of looking at Zhao Houchun, he turned to look at the other two seniors from the institution.

He interacted with many rank four advancement formula and extermination origin previously. He was extremely knowledgeable about Martial Extermination Realm experts and he knew that even if a few of them appeared in the Tongyou City, they wouldn’t be able to change the situation regardless.

Zhao Fengchun swept his gaze across the hall and laughed, “Is there anyone interested in these Hazy Pearls?”

Shang Xia was actually really interested in them. Shang Quan had once spoken to him about the process of crafting rank three talisman ink. If one crushed those Hazy Pearls into powder, it would be a good assistive ingredient in making rank three talisman ink. However, the powder was a mere assistive ingredient and he only needed a small amount to refine rank three talisman ink.

Shang Xia knew that those Hazy Pearls could be used to craft rank three talisman paper, but he didn’t know the specifics. After all, all he knew how to do was to craft talismans!

The Zhu Family Talisman Scripture he was using to further improve his way of talismans didn’t contain any method of crafting ink or talisman paper. All it told him was how to see if the ink and paper were of sufficient quality.

Shang Xia truly desired the pearls, but he didn’t have any of the treasures Zhao Fengchun wanted.

All of a sudden, a man whose face was covered in a black mask chuckled softly. “These pearls are definitely precious treasures, but I don’t have any Heart Cleansing Dew or Dancing Yang Blue Jade. I do have a stalk of Heart Directing Grass. I wonder if Owner Zhao is interested?”

Pausing for a second, Zhao Fengchun muttered, “The value of the grass cannot be compared to either treasure I asked for.”

A soft chuckle left the black masked man’s lips and he fell silent.

The effects of the Heart Directing Grass was truly not as effective as the other two treasures despite them all being treasures of the same rank.

Zhao Fengchun continued, “Even if you do not have Heart Cleansing Dew or Dancing Yang Blue Jade, I am willing to trade as long as the effects are similar.”

It was a pity no one else made an offer.

Evidently disappointed, Zhao Fengchun’s gaze landed on the black masked man. “How about six pearls for your Heart Directing Grass?”

“Eight.” A chuckle left the man’s lips and he started bargaining.

Hesitating slightly, Zhao Fengchun eventually agreed to the trade. “Alright. As the host of the gathering, I shouldn’t be so calculative. Deal!”

After he spoke, eight pearls rose into the air and flew towards the black masked man.

The man laughed happily and kept the pearls before waving his sleeves slightly. A long wooden box appeared on the table before Zhao Fengchun.

Opening it slightly to inspect its contents, Zhao Fengchun seemed to become a lot more relieved as he closed the box quickly before keeping it.

“Alright. Feel free to take over!” Zhao Fengchun regained his composure and waved his sleeves before retreating to the side.

Very quickly, another cultivator who had a stocky build went up to the table and started taking out treasures.

Shang Xia was happily watching the exchanges happening when Sun Haiwei’s voice entered his ears again. “Junior Brother Shang, do you know the similarities between the Heart Cleansing Dew, Dancing Yang Blue Jade, and Heart Directing Grass?”

As Upper Division disciples of the Tongyou Institution, the connection between the items couldn’t escape their eyes.

Those who were seated in the hall could also make their guesses.

Shang Xia hadn’t said anything when Tian Mengzi interrupted. “From what I know, the Heart Cleansing Dew and Dancing Yang Blue Jade can be used to clear one’s turbid qi. It is also really effective for one to consolidate one’s foundations to prevent cultivation deviation. It’s the first time I’m hearing of the Heart Directing Grass but from the trade earlier, it’s effects should be slightly weaker than the other two.”

“From how urgently Zhao Fengchun wanted to make the trade, could something have happened to disciples of the Zhao Family during their cultivation?” Sun Haiwei frowned. “Did Zhao Hengchun run into some sort of accident after breaking through?”

Shang Xia paid attention to the exchange going on in the middle of the room while replying to the both of them. “Dancing Yang Blue Jade is a rank three treasure and a Heart Cleansing Dew is of a similar rank. If Zhao Hengchun truly broke through, these treasures would be useless for him.”

Sun Haiwei hesitated slightly before mentioning, “Junior Brother Shang, do you think that he failed to break through then?”

“Hmm, that might not be the case. It’s possible that Zhao Hengchun broke through successfully and is currently experiencing a small problem in his cultivation path. That is why he only requires medicine of the third rank. Of course, It’s possible that the situation is extremely serious and Zhao Fengchun is panicking and is trying to get any medicine that has any effect. We can’t know for sure…” Tian Mengzi shook his head and sighed.

During their conversation, three people had already gone up to the center table to propose an exchange. Two of them succeeded in getting what they wanted and only one returned empty handed.

By the time they turned their attention back to the table, a female cultivator who named herself, ‘Third Mistress Liu’ was standing at the center table. She opened a thin wooden box and revealed a pale yellow needle.

Shang Xia knew that it was probably a rank three medicine from the looks of it. After all, it looked pretty similar to the Triple Loop Coalescence Needle he used to break through!

Her revelation captured the attention of many people in the hall.

Soon after, she whispered softly, “This is a rank three medicine called the Sunset Willow Spirit Awakening Needle. It can assist cultivators to strengthen their divine sense and assist in one’s divine sense transformation. Naturally, it would be less effective when used during successive transformations.

Before she could mention the items she wanted to trade for, Sun Haiwei and Shang Xia heard Tian Mengzi’s voice in their ears. “Please help me to obtain this item!”

The three of them could be said to be great talents of the Tongyou Institution. However, the distance between them were greatly pulled apart after their entry to the Martial Intent Realm.

Tian Mengzi was able to read the situation really clearly. He knew that neither Shang Xia nor Sun Haiwei needed the medicine and they would be able to assist him in his purchase.

Shang Xia hadn’t revealed his cultivation base since returning to the Tongyou City and not many people knew that he had already reached the grand completion stage of the Martial Intent Realm. Tian Mengzi was clearly in the dark, but from the aura Shang Xia was emitting, Tian Mengzi could tell that Shang Xia’s cultivation was leagues ahead of himself. As such, Shang Xia probably didn’t need the needles.

Moreover, with Shang Xia’s background, a mere medicine like that probably couldn’t catch his eye.

As for Sun Haiwei, the reason was even more simple. She had already completed her second divine sense transformation not too long ao. As such, she probably had no need for the needle in the foreseeable future!

Tian Mengzi was the only one of the three who could use the medicine! He felt that something was missing ever since he stepped into the Martial Intent Realm. As such, the needle was probably a way for him to push himself to complete his second divine sense transformation!
