Alien Science Cultivation

Chapter 133: All Made of Pure Gold

I believe the elves will not stand idly by for this...

Upon hearing that its master still had a glimmer of hope, Feihe's previously empty eyes suddenly gleamed with brilliance, and its aura suddenly surged. Having nearly stopped, Feihe suddenly sprinted, hurtling towards the Qingshan Sect. Zhang Qiang and the other two were thrown back by the sudden acceleration, nearly falling off the crane's back. Chen Ying, who had the lowest cultivation level, finally managed to steady himself, then glanced behind him with lingering fear. "Um... Brother Qiang... your unicorn brother seems to have fallen..."

"..." Zhang Qiang turned around, speechless. He only heard the angry roar of the unicorn below: "Damn it... You have no martial ethics..."

However, Feihe seemed to have heard nothing. After a flash of lightning, Unicorn vanished from sight. Zhang Qiang and the others didn't have time to grieve for him for even a second; they naturally understood that Feihe had done this on purpose. "Maybe that creature is too heavy, and it's offended Master Feihe again... Hehe..." Chen Ying, unable to contain herself, whispered, then burst into laughter like a pig being butchered. "Yes... He's a strange beast. Even if he transforms, his size wouldn't be too light..." Wang Yan echoed.

"Don't worry about him. I told him to go back to the Multifaceted Clan to get a blood sample. If the Qingshan Sect survives, bring it here. If it does, there's no need to go anywhere. Just protect the Multifaceted Clan..." Zhang Qiang said softly, looking anxiously at the distant peaks. "Don't worry too much, Brother Qiang... Let's go straight to the Qingshan Exchange... The intelligence department there has maps of every area... and they have someone in charge... I don't think it will take long..." Chen Ying consoled him. Maps are both information and a commodity. She didn't know whether the Qingshan Sect had them, but she certainly knew whether the Qingshan Exchange had them... It was a highly profitable business. Even ordinary exchanges, let alone the Qingshan Exchange, would have maps of certain areas...

As time ticked by, the flying crane's speed began to slowly slow... After all, maintaining its top speed required a tremendous amount of spiritual energy. Fortunately, after an hour's flight, the towering Qingshan Sect's main peak first came into view... A long-lost sense of familiarity eased their anxious expressions. As the twelve secondary peaks gradually appeared unharmed, the three of them revealed a slight touch of joy. "Brother Crane... let's go to the Qingshan Exchange at the foot of the Qingshan Sect..." Zhang Qiang whispered politely, cupping his fists. However, the flying crane, panting, ignored him completely, rolling its eyes in an anthropomorphic manner, causing Zhang Qiang to feel awkward... "Could it be Sister Crane... Crane Fairy..." Chen Ying whispered... "Ah..." Zhang Qiang was taken aback, but then, on second thought, it made sense. He hadn't really carefully identified the flying crane's gender. He'd simply heard Dujiao call it "Brother," so Zhang Qiang didn't think twice and followed suit. Thinking of this, Zhang Qiang blushed slightly. Zhang Qiang knew Chen Ying well enough to know her teasing tone, so he was pretty sure the crane was a female. "Oh... if this gets out... it'll be such a disgrace..."

As the flying crane approached Qingshan Sect and descended at a rapid speed, piercing through the clouds, at the foot of Qingshan… ten immeasurably magnificent palaces came into view. Built around the foot of the mountain, the palaces formed a vast ring. Each of the ten palaces was a uniform golden color—pure gold, in fact—adorned with a dazzling array of gemstones, each imbued with perfect symmetry. Carvings of exotic beasts crafted from pure gold stood before the ten gates, adding a touch of grandeur. While pure gold and gemstones might seem mundane to cultivators, the sheer quantity would surely draw even a Divine King-level expert's breath, not to mention the average cultivator. "The golden palaces surrounding Qingshan... and the countless gems are fine, but this... even the roads are paved with gold... and these massive squares are paved with gold. Even the rockery in the pools is gold... These golden palaces surround the foot of Qingshan, like an immense golden ring enveloping the mountain's base, making the entire mountain appear incredibly noble and luxurious... In the squares, on the broad golden avenues, people in elegant attire come and go. Teams of guards in golden armor weave among the throng, each team possessing at least the initial stage of Nirvana cultivation... Just look at all the extravagant decorations... What a waste!" Zhang Qiang raged with both amusement and anger. "Brother Qiang... this isn't waste... this is presentation... This Wang Ling is truly remarkable, able to achieve the highest level of impact with the lowest cost... No wonder Qingshan Exchange has grown so rapidly in just over a year... You're so distressed over this little bit of gold...? Look at your lack of ambition..." Chen Ying teased Zhang Qiang with a delighted look. "What... We came from the mortal realm too... How can this be called a little gold...? They must have plundered all the gold in the mortal realm..." Zhang Qiang continued with a hint of rage. "Yes... We all rose from the mortal realm... So gold has an unparalleled impact on cultivators and mortals alike..." Chen Ying continued to argue. "Hmm...? It seems so... It's just... too much..." Chen Ying's revelation forced Zhang Qiang to reevaluate his own perspective. "Look... ten palaces, ten gates, eight main roads, four mountain gates... Friendships from all directions, wealth from all directions, luck from all directions... I guess the Qingshan Exchange was designed by a great senior..." Chen Ying continued. "Let's go down first... Find the map as soon as possible." Naturally, Zhang Qiang wouldn't listen to her nonsense at this moment.

As Zhang Qiang finished speaking, a flying crane swooped down, carrying a gust of wind, and landed steadily on a square. This instantly startled many cultivators, and a dozen or so teams also rushed over at great speed... Faced with a flying crane over ten feet tall, a late-stage Immortal Emperor, they naturally didn't dare to act rashly, but to maintain order, they had to come and clarify the situation. "You are not allowed to fly here... I beg this senior Beast Immortal Emperor to understand..." A middle-aged leader, whose cultivation had reached the late stage of the Aspiring Pinnacle... a small realm higher than Wang Yan's. Although the middle-aged cultivator's words were unusually polite, his eyes were firm, and he believed that the leader's cultivation realm here was no lower than that of the crane...

"We need a map... the exact map of the sect and holy land from our last training trip to the Western Forest... Speed..." Wang Yan said nothing, not even acknowledging the middle-aged cultivator. The cultivator felt a tinge of rage, ready to explode. The guards in the back row summoned energy cannons at breakneck speed, their defensive maneuver a flawless one. Zhang Qiang and the other two were instantly delighted, yet speechless. "Second Commander... First Commander... Third Commander... Welcome home..." A commanding voice echoed, startling the guards. "Greetings, Sect Master..." Zhang Qiang and the other two ignored the guards and knelt on one leg, heading towards the voice. "Alright... you're the boss here... We just received a message from Elder Yao Chen: the ghosts and demons have breached several teleportation arrays, and their forces are imminent. However, the higher-ups believe... their speed may be even faster than we thought... Here's the map you requested. The locations of the sects and holy lands participating in the trial are marked..." Qingshan Sect Master Wang Yong finished his words, and a mysterious figure appeared before Wang Yan and the other two, handing them the map. Wang Yan respectfully accepted it and handed it back to Zhang Qiang. Wang Yong wasn't surprised. After all, Zhang Qiang was the boss of Qingshan Exchange, not Wang Yan. It was clear that Zhang Qiang was more than he appeared. Furthermore, Elder Yao Chen had repeatedly instructed him, the Qingshan Sect Master, to personally protect his safety... It was clear how much Elder Yao Chen valued him... At this moment, the guards reacted and hurriedly bowed to the Qingshan Sect Master and their three leaders... But in response, an endless black cloud filled the sky, obscuring the sun and rapidly approaching the Qingshan Sect... "How could it be so fast..." Wang Yong raised his head, shocked. "Haha... Qingshan Sect, I'm here... Prepare to destroy..." An old voice echoed as a massive black spaceship approached the Qingshan Sect's main peak. Dozens of black energy cannons, black light grew stronger... After hearing the voice of the old ghost clan member, Zhang Qiang and the other two were stunned. It was the same voice that threatened the elves in the desert, and the spaceship was exactly the same, "Space folding..." Zhang Qiang and the other two couldn't help but exclaimed in unison. Only at this moment did they understand that the ghost clan had known about the existence of space folding for a long time... After all, the two teams met in the desert and were heading in opposite directions. The ghost clan was heading deep into the desert. If it weren't for space folding, they wouldn't have been able to reach Qingshan Sect so quickly. As the Ghost Clan's energy cannons were ready, the twelve sub-peaks of the Qingshan Sect rapidly changed their positions, forming a circle that revolved around a vertical star and spinning rapidly. An energy vortex instantly formed in the middle of the twelve sub-peaks... As the black energy of the Ghost Clan's energy cannons shot out, a strange scene appeared before everyone's eyes. The energy burst from the energy cannons instantly penetrated into the vortex... and finally disappeared silently in this space... "Energy transfer... The Qingshan Sect is worthy of being a first-class sect in the Holy Land... Their methods are truly amazing... Haha... But it's not enough..." The old voice did not contain any disappointment, but instead became more excited... It seemed that only by destroying a sufficiently powerful sect could he arouse his interest... As the old man's voice fell again... Dozens of black spaceships appeared from the dark clouds... Thousands of black energy cannons pointed directly at the vortex formed by the rotation of the twelve peaks... At this moment, Zhang Qiang no longer hesitated. He instantly activated the communication jade token given by the Elf Clan Elder Wu Yong and transmitted it along with the map information given by Wang Yong...
