Chapter 652: Magnetic Fate Dipper Essence?



Lightly tugging his fishing pole, Shang Xia fished up his Talisman Fish and took out another cube that contained the Hundred Bone Phosphorescent Fire Fate Dipper Essence under the shocked gazes of everyone present. When he was finally done, he started to share what Zheng Chang had told him. He spoke about how spies of the Spirit Abundance World might have already infiltrated the Azure Origin World and Azure Spiritual World. He also told them about how Martial Dipper Realm experts from the Spirit Abundance World might start an assault on them soon.

Liu Qinglan sighed in response, “Do you mean that these holy lands are planning to use their incomplete or defective rank five advancement formulas to nurture a batch of Martial Dipper Realm… Cannon Fodder?”

Shang Xia muttered helplessly, “The entire thing is an open scheme to begin with. There are many experts in the Azure Origin World and Azure Spiritual World who possess the cultivation to attempt a breakthrough to the Martial Dipper Realm. All they’re lacking is an advancement formula. The appearance of these incomplete or defective rank five advancement formulas gave them a trace of hope. They can choose if they wish to take the risk, but those holy lands will receive a bunch of treasures regardless. At the same time, the strength of our worlds will rise. Our ability to resist the invasion of the Spirit Abundance World will be strengthened and they have no reason not to do it.”

Liu Zhidao, whose attention was placed on his fishing pole earlier, finally spoke. “I wonder how many cultivators would be able to enter the Martial Dipper Realm after buying those formulas…”

“As long as a few of them succeed, it doesn’t matter if dozens are sacrificed…” Shang Xia muttered.

“Should we try to obtain a few of those formulas in that case?” Chu Jia asked.

Even though she didn’t mention anything about rank five advancement formula of the Tongyou Institution, those present could already guess that their advancement formula was also slightly defective!

It was an open secret among the Martial Extermination Realm experts of the Tongyou Institution at that point.

One couldn’t see how there were 3 Martial Dipper Realm Ancestors present in the institution and compare the strength of the institution to other holy lands. It was true that if they were to mention combat power, the Tongyou Institution would stand at the peak of the Azure Origin World. They were no weaker than many holy lands and only the 3 super factions stood high above them. There were no other factions who could take the Tongyou Institution lightly! However, with the exception of Kou Chongxue who relied on his luck to enter the Martial Dipper Realm a long time ago and established his prestige, the others were mere amateurs in the Martial Dipper Realm! Be it Ji Wenlong or Shang Bo, they spent a ton of time planning and scheming before eventually succeeding. Moreover, they had to bet the future of the entire institution each time either of them tried to advance.

Chu Jia didn’t make her suggestion for fun. She wanted to use the other incomplete or defective rank five advancement formulas as a reference to perfect their own.

Liu Qinglan laughed softly, “Go ahead and take a look if you want to. However, we’re not in a rush to obtain other advancement formulas. We can try to get them if we have extra essence crystals at the end of the trade fair. After so many years of trial and error, we made some improvements to our advancement formula. Even though it’s not perfect, we can still say that it’s pretty much complete. The price we have to pay might be unusually large and the difficulty of using the method to break through might be high, but one can probably succeed…”

Looks of astonishment and pleasant surprise could be seen on the faces of Chu Jia and the others.

Shang Xia maintained the smile on his face. That wasn’t news to him as he had guessed as much.

Moreover, no one said that the Tongyou Institution only had a single rank five advancement formula!

No longer caring about their conversation, Shang Xia placed his attention back onto his Talisman Fish and the jade coin hanging in his Cloud Sea. He needed to make full use of his time to obtain the fate dipper essences and rank five spiritual treasures he needed to break through!

After retrieving the Hundred Bone Phosphorescent Fire Fate Dipper Essence earlier, Shang Xia felt that the time had come. He placed the final rank four talisman he had on him, the Divine Restraint Talisman, onto the ground for the Talisman Fish to swallow before tossing it back into the Cloud Sea.

After swimming for a little while, his Talisman Fish felt a strong sense of attraction before swimming in a certain direction. Shang Xia quickly placed a majority of his attention on the fish.

Before he could arrive at his destination, Shang Xia felt a strong jolt running through his mind from the fishing pole he held.

Changing his approach, he no longer bothered with where the fish was going and his divine perception spread around the area covered in light emitted by his jade coin. He noticed a giant fish that was green and red in color crashing into his jade coin from time to time.

“Fellow cultivator, do you have fate dipper essence?” Shang Xia asked.

The other party’s voice rang in Shang Xia’s mind. “Why the hell would I be here if I didn’t have one? What a stupid question.” From the tone, Shang Xia felt that the cultivator he was dealing with was probably a lady.

Of course, their voices had undergone a layer of disguise. It was impossible for him to truly tell the gender of the other person and Shang Xia could only guess.

Whatever the case, he wouldn’t waste his time arguing with her. He stated directly, “I apologize. That wasn’t what I wanted to ask. I wonder what fate dipper essence you wish to trade?”

Her voice came quickly. “Oh? Are you planning to pick and choose the type of fate dipper essence you can get? Didn’t you state that you were looking for fate dipper essence? You didn’t limit them to anything specific and I thought you would accept anything that came your way!”

There was a trace of mockery in her voice and she sounded really irritated.

Shang Xia wasn’t too affected by her emotions. Instead, he felt as though he had hit the jackpot. From the way she spoke, he felt that she might have multiple strands of fate dipper essence. His explanation eventually came. “Fate dipper essence are treasures of the fifth rank and I had no choice but to try my luck by leaving my request on my jade coin. You… Fellow cultivator, please don’t misunderstand. To be honest, you’re the second person who came since the start of the fair.”

Her pointed voice rang in Shang Xia’s mind the next moment, but it didn’t seem like she had anything against him at that point. “Heh, it would be a miracle if you managed to get a few people willing to sell fate dipper essence. There are at least 3 holy lands buying fate dupper essence and some of them would even reject the fate dipper essence if they’re of poor quality. With them as your competitor, how many Talisman Fish would be able to find you?”

Shang Xia felt a chill running through his heart. He might have guessed as much, but nothing beat hearing it for himself. Despite whatever he was feeling, he was helpless against the actions of the holy lands.

Thinking about it for a moment, Shang Xia felt that the cultivator on the other side had to be someone from the holy lands. After all, she was extremely clear of the situation. If that wasn’t the case, the only other possibility was that she was from an ordinary faction and ran into multiple requests to buy fate dipper essence while traveling through the Cloud Sea.

From how cynical she was acting, Shang Xia felt that the latter was more possible.

Laughing softly, Shang Xia asked, “I might be curious as to why you haven’t sold your fate dipper essence, but I should be thanking my lucky stars that you managed to find me.”

The female cultivator snorted in response, “You better think twice before thanking your lucky stars. Maybe this lady here won’t trade with you at all.”

The way she addressed herself confirmed Shang Xia’s initial speculation of her gender.

Regardless, Shang Xia chuckled in response. “Alright, but let me ask you again… Do you have multiple fate dipper essences?”

“You’re from the middle section but you’re acting pretty arrogantly. You’re right. I have more than a single fate dipper essence. Don’t tell me you want all of them?” The trace of mockery in her voice was transforming to one of shock.

Shang Xia didn’t care that she was testing him and he revealed his intentions immediately. “That’s right. I do plan on getting more than 1 fate dipper essence if you have them.”

“How do you wish to trade?” She asked.

“I can pay in essence crystals, but if you have other requirements, I will do my best to fulfill them.” Shang Xia replied.

This time, she was no longer as snappy as before. She turned a lot more serious and she said, “I have 2 different Magnetic Fate Dipper Essence. However, they’re intertwined and there’s no way to separate them. I tried countless times to trade them with others, but all of them decided not to after realizing that they wouldn’t be able to separate them.”

“Magnetic Fate Dipper Essence?” Shang Xia raised an eyebrow in surprise. “I am indeed interested in them, but I do not know if they are something I require.”

The female cultivator gasped in shock, “Do you not care that they are inseparable? Or do you actually have a way to split them up?”

“You don’t have to worry about that.” Shang Xia responded.

Snorting heavily, her displeasure with his answer was clearly conveyed to him.

When Shang Xia was worrying over whether she would just turn to leave, her voice rang in his mind again. “You can take a look at them, but I don’t plan to trade them for essence crystals. You better be prepared to pay through the nose if you want them!”

Shang Xia barely agreed when the fish swallowed his jade coin.

Tugging his fishing pole, he dragged the fish up onto the platform.

The female cultivator got directly to the point. She spat out 2 pieces of dark rock that were stuck together.

Shang Xia barely reached over to pick them up when her voice rang in his mind. “Don’t think that you can separate the fate dipper essence by splitting up the rocks. These are merely used to seal them together.”

Shang Xia nodded but didn’t say more. Actually, there was no need for him to say anything as the Crimson Soul Tablet told him whatever he needed to know once he touched the rocks.

“Yin Alignment Earth Essence Fate Dipper Essence. Ji Earth Element Fate Dipper Essence.”

“Yang Alignment Heaven Extremity Fate Dipper Essence. Wu Earth Element Fate Dipper Essence.”

Shang Xia was speechless after seeing the words displayed on the Crimson Soul Tablet.

He didn’t care to return the rocks that contained the fate dipper essences back to her and he asked, “These are definitely something I need. I wonder what you wish to obtain in exchange?”

Seeing how Shang Xia hadn’t returned the goods, she knew that he desperately wanted to make the trade. “I want a divine weapon. Do you have one?”

Shang Xia glanced at her with a trace of shock in his eyes. He tossed back the rocks without a second thought. Failing to contain his emotions, he sneered, “Do you even want to make the trade? Here, take them back. I won’t send you off.”
