Chapter 335 - 335: Intense Battle with Shangguan Quanhong
Hearing her words, Jiang Chengxuan, Elder Flowing Fire, and Wen Shujun could not help but turn to look at her.
Hua Mengyou said, “Some time ago, I followed Shifu to visit Senior Kun Xu.
There, 1 saw those two things with my own eyes.”
“Fellow Daoist Kun Xu?”
Jiang Chengxuan and the other two could not help but feel excited.
Wen Shujun said, “If Fellow Daoist Kun Xu, I might have a way to get those two things from him.
However, those two things are not cheap. If we want to get them from him, I’m afraid we have to pay a price.”
Both Wen Shujun and Elder Flowing Fire knew very well that if you wanted to take something from him, you definitely could not use the tactic of moral coercion.
They had to pay the corresponding price.
Moreover, Daoist Kun Xu was not a nobody, but a Golden Core cultivator on the same level as them.
In that case, they should respect him even more.
Therefore, in the next moment, Elder Flowing Fire immediately expressed his stance.
“If Fellow Daoist Kun Xu is willing to hand over those two items, 1 can give him an incomplete manual of a divination technique.”
As everyone knew, Daoist Kun Xu was proficient in divination.
Therefore, he was thirsty for any manual or cultivation technique related to divination.
Since Elder Flowing Fire was willing to use an incomplete manual of a divination technique to exchange, they should be able to obtain two spiritual items from Daoist Kun Xu without a hitch.
After all, the True Essence Wood and the Shaoyang Dew Grass were only false Level 4 spiritual items.
To Golden Core cultivators like them, it was not very precious.
Moreover, this matter was related to the plague. Daoist Kun Xu had no reason to refuse.
That was the truth.
When Wen Shujun took the incomplete manual given by Elder Flowing Fire and came to Mount Kun Xu where Daoist Kun Xu was, Daoist Kun Xu agreed readily and handed over the True Essence Wood and the Shaoyang Grass Dew.
When all the materials were handed to Jiang Chengxuan, he immediately began to refine the Heavenly Treasure Pill.
Because of the memories and experience instilled by the system, Jiang Chengxuan was able to refine the Heavenly Treasure Pill smoothly.
About a week later.
A round and flawless jade pill that was about the size of a football was refined by Jiang Chengxuan.
As soon as Jiang Chengxuan successfully refined the Heavenly Treasure Pill, he entered Sangming County with Wen Shujun and Elder Flowing Fire.
Rustle.
As Jiang Chengxuan activated this pill, a refreshing medicinal fragrance immediately wafted out.
The few of them saw it clearly that wherever the medicinal fragrance passed, gray mist suddenly evaporated in the air.
After the mortals and cultivators who were infected by the plague inhaled the medicinal fragrance emitted by the Heavenly Treasure Pill, gray mist also floated out of their bodies and then was purified by the medicinal pill.
This scene instantly made Elder Flowing Fire and Wen Shujun, who were accompanying him, look pleasantly surprised.
According to this rate, it would probably not be long before the plague in the entire Liang Nation was completely eliminated.
This was naturally a great thing for Jiang Chengxuan and the entire Liang Nation.
However, for someone hiding in the dark, it was undoubtedly bad news.
This person was the Plague Demon that Jiang Chengxuan and the others had mentioned before. His real name was Shangguan Quanhong.
The demonic technique he cultivated was called the Plague Calamity Scripture. By bringing about a large-scale plague that killed hundreds of thousands of mortals and cultivators, he could absorb enough Plague Qi from them to increase his cultivation and strength.
His intrinsic demonic treasure, the Plague Banner, had pretty much the same usage.
Unfortunately, things had not gone well for him all these years.
Although he had killed millions of mortals, his Plague Banner was only at the mid-grade Level 4 and his cultivation stagnated at the sixth level of the Golden Core.
If he could take this opportunity to kill a few more millions of mortals and low-level cultivators, his cultivation and intrinsic demonic treasure would have a high chance of breaking through to the late-stage Golden Core.
But the most important reason he spread a plague in the Liang Nation was to make all the mortals and low-level cultivators in the Liang Nation panic.
It could be imagined that if this matter continued beyond a certain period of time, it would definitely be a huge blow to the prestige of the Jade Water Sword Pavilion and the Heavenly Yue Sect.
At that time, once the war between Liang Nation and the Zheng Nation broke out, the Zheng Nation would have a natural advantage.
It was even very likely that they would annex a large amount of Liang Nation’s territory.
Shangguan Quanhong was under the orders of the Shangguan family to do so.
Hundreds of years ago, he was expelled from the Shangguan family because he cultivated demonic techniques, but in reality, that was just a show the Shangguan family put up for outsiders to see.
All these years, Shangguan Quanhong had always been in close contact with the Shangguan family..
