The Journey of Immortal Cultivation
Chapter 1198 - 624: Healing
In fact, the material used for this Token is the extremely rare "Star Iron," and like the Artifact Refiner’s favorite Heavenly Fallen Gold, it comes from outer space meteorite iron. However, its color is pure gold, making it even more versatile, as many Divine Artifacts must be mixed with it during their casting, so a tiny grain is worth as much as thirty thousand Spirit Stones.
To create such a complete Token, how much Star Iron would it consume, and how many Spirit Stones would it be worth? Calculating with this in mind, the faces of the people from King Jinghai Mansion all shifted somewhat. The most awe-inspiring forces in this world are, first, power; second, wealth. From the Token, one could deduce the identity of its owner, indeed a highly prestigious person within the Hidden Stream.
Since Hidden Stream incited war on the continent, information on this once long-hidden sect has started to be widely studied. The people of King Jinghai Mansion certainly know that the Tokens used within Hidden Stream are divided into six ranks, with Iron Wood being the least, and Gold being the most revered. Only a few Sect Leaders and the legendary Shaking Heaven God possess the qualification to wield a Golden Token. With this Golden Token, one could truly summon thousands of troops to come forth.
Within the territory of Hidden Stream, they don’t believe anyone would be foolish enough to impersonate the leader of Hidden Stream and test the limits of this powerful Demon Sect. Thus, this Golden Token could only be genuine.
Foremost, that scholar’s expression was no longer relaxed. Cultivators’ reverence for power is actually no different from that of demons. He quietly inquired: "Which leader from Hidden Stream is arriving?"
Ning Xiaoxian glanced at Changtian and saw his indifferent expression, knowing he didn’t care whether his identity was revealed or not, so she turned and laughed aloud: "Shaking Heaven God is here."
She truly underestimated the power of those four words.
Like a thunderbolt from a clear sky, like water entering boiling oil, not only the scholar but also those on both sides who heard her voice stepped back several paces simultaneously, faces changing. The sound of the ever-returning waves hitting the shore seemed to pause, and the giant demon similarly froze, stunned, in the water.
It actually had fought against an Ancient Divine Beast and managed to escape alive from his grasp! So was this a stroke of fortune during the years it served as the Water God, receiving Heaven’s blessing? Tears almost welled up in the giant demon’s eyes, deeply grateful to God.
The expression of the scholar opposite was even more spectacular. Ning Xiaoxian watched with interest as his face changed like a palette and felt a slight astonishment in her heart: "Is Changtian’s reputation resounding across the Southern Continent again?"
After all, she had been asleep for too long, not knowing that the overwhelming fury Hidden Stream exposed in recent years truly was stained by one life after another. Other sects’ battles were for territory and benefits; Hidden Stream acted, however, for taking lives and souls! And the name of Hidden Stream would forever be tightly bound to one individual: the Ancient Divine Beast, Shaking Heaven God!
This scholar’s calming skills were decent, stabilizing himself after a few breaths. He stepped forward two paces, bowed deeply to the ground with utmost respect, and said: "We didn’t realize the God was personally here, Yao Wen Yuan and the others were abrupt, we beg for forgiveness!"
Changtian said indifferently: "Can I take this demon creature away?"
Yao Wen Yuan broke out in a sweat, smiled bitterly, and said: "What are you saying there? This demon creature is yours to take away, we, we will leave immediately. Upon returning to King Jinghai Mansion, if Lord Mansion knows the demon creature was taken by you, I think he won’t blame us."
Changtian murmured a sound and said: "If so, you all may go." Was he that old? Night wind blew over, bringing the faint scent of hair from the person in front of him, standing beside her, he inexplicably took offense to the title "Your Old" and liked the people from King Jinghai Mansion even less.
The giant demon was of great use to King Jinghai Mansion. Yet with Shaking Heaven God present, no matter how many more they brought, they would end up losing. It would be wiser to graciously extend a favor and let it pass.
Say what vicious sins, say what never lightly forgive. Hidden Stream isn’t just a den of demons, though unknown why Shaking Heaven God wants to stand up for this giant demon, if this creature gets taken back to Ba Snake Mountain Range, afraid its small days will be thriving, not speaking of punishment? They pursued across a million miles, but in the end, it was a waste resulting in nothing.
Just returning empty-handed like this, who knows how Lord Mansion might punish them? He smiled bitterly in his heart, but had to repeatedly respond "yes" aloud, his gaze swept over Ning Xiaoxian standing aside, finally a flicker of inspiration.
"Are you Ning Xiaoxian, Elder Ning?" he asked repeatedly.
His eyes suddenly lit up when looking at her. Ning Xiaoxian blinked and said: "I am." What’s with the expression like he’s found a treasure? She’s not used to this.
