Immortality and Cultivation: I Have Too Many Talents

Chapter 294 Equivalent Transaction (Please Subscribe)

Upon hearing this, Shen Xuan was greatly shocked, his heart filled with a storm of emotions.

【Illusion-Breaking Spirit Eye Technique】performed to its fullest extent.

I gaze intently at the Purple Sacred Tree.

Sure enough, the leaves fluttered down, gradually revealing a human-shaped outline.

"Senior, please forgive me! This junior did not know that you had attained enlightenment and taken human form!"

Shen Xuan immediately knelt down and begged for forgiveness without hesitation.

All doubts vanished.

This Purple Divine Tree actually gained sentience, restored its nature and destiny, and transformed into a demon.

Moreover, their strength is not low.

At least level three or higher!
Judging from its age, it is very likely a top-grade third-tier tree!
Just one step away from taking human form!
The divine message from the Purple Essence Divine Tree terrified Shen Xuan.

Fortunately, he only thought about it and did not put it into action.

Otherwise, if this Purple Essence Divine Tree were to become enraged, the consequences would be unimaginable.

He didn't believe that with his meager cultivation level, he could confront a third-tier demon king head-on.

It was a stroke of luck that they managed to escape with their lives from the Purple Essence Divine Tree.

At this moment, his kneeling and pleading guilty was also a gamble.

The Purple Essence Divine Tree, a powerful plant demon, is not as violent as carnivorous demon beasts and will not easily harm people.

Otherwise, Qin Yuehan and Wei Shiya would have been safe and sound both absorbing its purple divine light.

If it weren't for the tacit approval of the Purple Essence Divine Tree, how could they have solidified their spiritual bodies?

"Hey! Little one, you're pretty smart! Get up."

The magnificent and resounding divine voice echoed once again.

Shen Xuan felt relieved.

After getting up, he secretly glanced at Fan Siwen and Wei Shiya.

The two were completely unaware of each other, one practicing martial arts and the other protecting the Dharma.

I suddenly understood.

The Purple Divine Tree shielded the two of them.

At this moment, if you communicate with him using telepathic communication, others will not be able to hear you.

"This humble one is ignorant and uneducated, and does not recognize the true form of your enlightenment. Thank you for your forgiveness."

"Who is Yang Caiyi to you?"

“Master Gufeng is indeed my master.”

"How's that girl?"

"Master is well."

Shen Xuan accompanied Qin Yuehan here once.

It is estimated that the Purple Divine Tree guessed his identity because of this.

This also confirmed Shen Xuan's conjecture.

When my master was young, he also came here and had a good relationship with this Purple Essence Divine Tree.

"Do you have any spiritual water stored on you? The sun is scorching lately, give me some spiritual water to drink."

"Yes, senior!"

Shen Xuan did not hesitate.

First, they brought out the water purification bottle.

Sprinkle all the spiritual water inside onto the leaves of the Purple Essence Divine Tree.

That's 50,000 spirit stones.

Shen Xuan didn't even blink.

"That's too little, is there any more?"

Shen Xuan hesitated for a moment before honestly replying, "Senior, I also have the Jianghai Wanshui Map bestowed by my master. However, I just finished refining it, and only 20% of the spiritual water has been extracted from it."

"What's the big deal! Take out the spirit stones you have on you."

Shen Xuan felt fortunate.

He purchased a large quantity of medicinal herbs at Liuguang Market.

More than 600,000 spirit stones were spent, and most of them were gone.

There were only 200,000 spirit stones left in the storage bag.

Shen Xuan brought out the Jianghai Wanshui Map.

Two hundred thousand spirit stones also flew out into the air.

A streak of purple divine light flashed by.

Two hundred thousand spirit stones were all captured in the Jianghai Wanshui Map.

In just over ten breaths, it was all refined.

The Demon King's abilities are beyond comprehension.

"Sigh, this is the only way!"

The Purple Divine Tree sighed.

All the spiritual waters from the Jianghai Wanshui Map rushed out, forming a huge water column that sprinkled onto the Purple Essence Divine Tree.

Shen Xuan watched respectfully, not daring to even breathe loudly.

I dare not even entertain wild thoughts.

He guessed that this Purple Essence Divine Tree possessed some kind of supernatural power, capable of understanding the thoughts and ideas of cultivators.

Soon, the Thousand-Fang Spirit Water was exhausted.

The Purple Divine Tree returned the Map of Rivers and Seas to Shen Xuan.

There was a hint of smugness in his words.

"Heh, you're quite interesting, kid."

The voice of the Purple Divine Tree was full of teasing.

"What's your name, little one?"

"Young man, Shen Xuan."

Shen Xuan calmed down.

His talents and skills are nothing compared to those of a true demon king.

Moreover, he could sense that the Purple Essence Divine Tree harbored no ill will towards him.

Although some spirit stones were lost.

Spending money can eliminate disasters.

"Don't worry, kid Shen. I won't take advantage of you."

"Since I've used up these spirit stones, I'll give you some spirit branches as a gift."

The Purple Divine Tree suddenly trembled.

Some of the smaller branches fell off.

"A gift from a senior?"

Shen Xuan glanced at the tree branches on the ground, unable to hide his excitement.

Although the radius was only as thick as a child's arm, the spiritual patterns on the branches were not clear enough.

It is estimated to be an extra branch from the Purple Sacred Tree.

But even so.

These branches still emitted a dazzling purple light, causing Shen Xuan to involuntarily hold his breath.

Tier 3 Spirit Wood!

Moreover, it is very likely to be a high-grade third-tier spirit wood!
Even a defective product is not a rare treasure!

Shen Xuan's heart pounded wildly.

Previously, the Thunder Sound Bamboo provided by Fan Siwen and Wei Shiya was also a third-tier spirit wood.

However, the age is insufficient, and the true grade is at most second-tier superior.

What Qianzhu Jushi gave him was only a second-tier top-grade item.

It is impossible to advance to the third level without cultivating it for more than a hundred years.

Shen Xuan's planned new talisman requires high-quality spirit wood to make the talisman embryo.

The second-grade high-quality Thunder Sound Bamboo met his minimum requirements.

If it is a third-tier spirit wood, it can bear more spiritual power and better unleash the power of the talisman.

"You do not want?"

"want!"

Shen Xuancai wasn't pretentious.

He immediately took out a blank jade box, picked up the jade pieces one by one, and carefully placed them into the box.

There are a total of eighteen.

Shen Xuan looked at the Purple Divine Tree with resentment.

Such a big tree, and only eighteen crooked branches? That's far too few!
"Young Shen, don't be greedy!" "Yes, thank you for the treasure, senior!"

Shen Xuan bowed and scraped, showing the utmost respect.

“Our relationship is one of equal exchange; there is no question of bestowing treasures upon each other.”

"If you need any of the remaining branches on my body, you can come back to trade them in ten years."

"However, by then, you will have to refine the entire Jianghai Wanshui Map."

Shen Xuan's eyes lit up.

And so on!

Refining the thousand streams of spiritual water from the Jianghai Wanshui Map requires five to six hundred thousand spirit stones.

Seems like a lot.

But in the face of a true third-tier spirit tree.

It's really nothing.

Besides making treasure charms.

This third-tier spirit wood has many other uses.

Pill arrays, artifacts, puppets, and so on can all be used.

Its value is at least as high as five or six hundred thousand spirit stones.

Moreover, the higher the grade of the cultivation item, the harder it is to obtain.

Even a Golden Core cultivator would cherish a third-tier spiritual object like the Purple Essence Divine Wood.

Shen Xuan guessed that the Purple Essence Divine Tree treated him so well, partly because of his master, True Person Gufeng.

"Don't worry, senior. Ten years from now, I will definitely come back with the refined Thousand-Fang Spirit Water."

The "Divine Treasure Ocean Technique" he practices has health-preserving and therapeutic effects.

The Purple Divine Tree had its eye on more than just the Thousand Essence Water.

It also has the special effects of the spiritual power of its [Divine Treasure Ocean Skill].

really.

The Purple Divine Tree said, "Young Shen, you are a smart man. I do indeed need the spiritual water refined by your cultivation technique."

"However, our transaction is an equal exchange, where each of us gets what we need."

This is the second time that Ziyun Shenmu has mentioned the phrase "equivalent exchange".

"Yes, young man and senior, it's an equal exchange."

Shen Xuan quickly replied.

He understood the meaning of the Purple Divine Tree.

The two parties are exchanging goods at equal value; neither party is at a loss or owes the other anything.

The Purple Divine Tree will not interfere with his destiny and karma.

Throughout the entire process, the Purple Divine Tree did not participate in the battles between cultivators and demonic beasts.

Therefore, it doesn't care if the deep-sea hook snake eats cultivators.

Shen Xuan killed the Deepwater Hook Serpent, and it didn't care.

Respect the fate of others, let go of the urge to help others, and do not get involved in the karma of others.

This is also the principle of many enlightened demon kings.

"Alright! Boy, don't disturb my peaceful cultivation!"

The shielding of the Purple Sacred Tree has been removed.

Shen Xuan looked over.

Michelle Wai is still absorbing the purple divine light.

Fan Siwen stood by, looking bewildered.

"Fellow Daoist Shen, where did you go just now?"

"It's nothing, I just looked around the area."

Shen Xuan said it casually.

The Purple Divine Tree does not wish to associate with cultivators.

He naturally wouldn't say it out loud.

As for his equivalent transaction with the Purple Essence Divine Wood.

Shen Xuan wouldn't even mention his own master.

The days after.

Calm and calm.

Six months later.

Wei Shiya slowly finished her exercise, opened her eyes, and her eyes were full of surprise.

"Junior sister, how is she?"

"Senior brother, I did it!"

Michelle Wai suddenly stood up, her emotions running high, and she was unable to calm down for a long time.

a long time.

She then bowed deeply to Shen Xuan.

"I will always remember Fellow Daoist Shen's great kindness. If you ever need anything in the future, please feel free to ask."

Upon hearing this, Fan Siwen frowned slightly.

Their relationship with Shen Xuan was originally a transaction.

In exchange for five sections of Thunder Bamboo, they were responsible for ensuring the safe passage of the two to and from the small island in the lake.

The junior sister's words implied a desire to become acquainted with him.

"No need! Between you and me, it's just a transaction."

"Please give my regards to Layman Qianzhu."

After saying that, Shen Xuan summoned the Golden Claw Divine Eagle Corpse Beast, rode it alone, flew out of the small island in the lake, and returned to the Qingyun Sect.

As they flew far away, Wei Shiya stared blankly at the black dot in the depths of the sky, her heart filled with mixed emotions.

"What a strange man!"

"After we return to the sect, we'll ask Senior Sister Qianzhu who he really is!"

Wei Shiya thought to herself.

Beside him, Fan Siwen summoned a spaceship.

"Junior sister, let's go back!"

……

Having broken through to the mid-Foundation Establishment stage, the Golden Claw Divine Eagle Corpse Beast refined its golden body and mastered flight, reaching speeds even faster than ordinary spaceships.

However, since it was a corpse beast, Shen Xuan needed to allocate some of his divine sense to control it.

In this respect, no spirit beast is as effective.

The spirit beast does not require its master to be distracted in controlling it.

They can also contribute in battle.

Therefore, even the most powerful people like to have a mount.

It's not just about showing off status; it also has practical value.

The skies above the Shadow Forest belong to the demonic birds.

Ordinary Foundation Establishment cultivators dare not fly in the air casually.

However, Shen Xuan is not included in this category.

On his way back to his sect, he encountered three groups of demonic birds.

One of them is the infamous Evil-Faced Flying Eagle.

Ordinary Foundation Establishment cultivators, upon encountering these demonic birds, would be terrified and flee in panic.

The main problem is that there are too many demonic birds, and they don't know martial ethics and like to gang up on each other.

But since Shen Xuan dared to fly, he must have made preparations long ago.

He unleashed his [Awe-inspiring Might], his voice booming like thunder, scattering the flock of demonic birds he encountered.

This god's wide-range soul attack is extremely effective against the horde of demonic birds.

The king of the demonic birds, recognizing the danger, ordered his subordinates to retreat.

They dared not provoke Shen Xuan.

He returned to the Qingyun Sect in just over ten days.

They were away for just over a month.

Little Lonely Peak has been completely transformed, and everywhere is filled with joy.

Everyone was extremely busy.

Shen Xuan thought that his quiet return to Shuiyue Residence would go unnoticed.

But as soon as he returned, he received a message from his master, instructing him to go and pay his respects immediately.
