Cultivation: When you take things to the extreme-Chapter 749 - 468: OEM_2

Priceless on the market, hard to exchange!

But now, with academic credits as currency, there are clear set prices.

Even those superior immortal implements, which are treasures from the Demonic Dao Heavenly Caves that not even the Blessed Lands and Ancient Sects dare to lay their hands on, besides the immortal implements, there are also many high-order spiritual objects and various Divine Power techniques.

These rare and sought-after treasures, which can be exchanged for relatively common magic artifacts and spiritual treasures, even if at a loss, are acceptable to the various Blessed Lands and Ancient Sects and even quite welcome.

Besides, this business might not necessarily mean a loss. Perhaps there might be a larger investment in the early stages, but as one gains more experience in artifact refining, skill becomes second nature, reducing the failure rate and the cost of sword refining directly, eventually turning losses into profits.

Moreover, the Blessed Lands and Ancient Sects have a major advantage: their realm of cultivation. Most of those old ancestors from the Blessed Lands are in the Return to Void stage, while a few are at the Integration level, with cultivation of the sixth and seventh tier.

If they put in the effort, refining third-tier and fourth-tier magical treasures and spiritual treasures would not be easily attainable, but relatively effortless.

To put it plainly, the Wandao School is using this enormous carrot to lure those Return to Void old ancestors from the great Blessed Lands and even the Integration Great Powers to manufacture on their behalf in order to achieve their goals.

What goals?

What is the purpose of refining these Nine-Ritual Xuanyuan Swords?

Don’t tell me it’s to produce standard equipment for the Academy Disciples!

Currently, the Wandao School has disciples numbering in the tens of millions, if not billions. Equipping each person with a Nine-Ritual Xuanyuan Sword of magical treasure or even spiritual treasure level is something that not even the Immortal Gates of the Cave Heavens, let alone some Earth Immortal realms, can afford.

So, the purpose of their large-scale production of these Nine-Ritual Xuanyuan Swords...

Yuzhao couldn’t be sure, but she was reminded of the thrilling Divine Martial live broadcast thirty years ago.

The Martial Madman versus the Vajra Monk!

The Divine Martial Battle Armor against the Six-foot Golden Body!

Armed with the Divine Martial Battle Armor, which was a combination of millions of magic artifacts, that Martial Madman, with his Nascent Soul realm, fought against the Integration level Demonic Dao powerhouse Sada. In the end, he pierced the golden body with his spear, sending the Vajra Demon Monk into the cycle of reincarnation.

Millions of magic artifacts combine into battle armor, able to aid the Martial Madman in overcoming the challenges of three Heavenly Passes, accomplishing the Nascent Soul’s challenge against Integration—a feat. Then what about these Nine-Ritual Xuanyuan Swords of magical treasure or even spiritual treasure level...

This is their goal!

They are already scheming, planning for future moves.

This Nine-Ritual Xuanyuan Sword, unless something unexpected happens, will indeed be their weapon against the Immortal Gates of the Cave Heavens.

With "Li Xuanyuan’s" ability, coupled with these Nine-Ritual Xuanyuan Swords, who could possibly be a match for him?

Mahayana?

Crossing the Tribulation?

Or a True Immortal?

Yuzhao couldn’t be sure and it was precisely this uncertainty that rendered her so silent.

If they truly possessed the power to match a True Immortal, then when they descend to the various Great Cavern Heavens and enter into the world, they may trigger a bloodbath, a deadly trial for immortals.

But...

"What does that have to do with me?"

Atop Cloud Rain Mountain, within the Joyous Union Cave, the Demon Enchantress held the Yin Yang Strategist, eyeing the various Divine Power techniques listed for exchange. Her eyes shifted with a glossy hue as her delicate lips glistened.

"The Thirty-Six Heavenly Gang Techniques—Inverting Yin and Yang?"

"Can it cause chaos to heaven and earth, disrupt the sun and the moon, invert Yin and Yang, and reverse Qiankun?"

"Such Divine Power, such techniques, they are simply tailor-made for our Joyous Union Sect!"

"I must obtain it, I must have it!"

Reading the description of the Inverting Yin and Yang technique, the Demon Enchantress’s breath grew heavier, her eyes reddening: "Once I master this Divine Power, I will be able to prove the Principle of Yin and Yang to become a True Immortal. Then, then...!"

Seeing her expression, the Artifact Spirit fell silent but ultimately had to remind her, "Little master, do you know how to refine artifacts?"

"That...

Her words brought the Demon Enchantress back to reality, leaving her in an awkward state, but she soon smoothed over her discomfort: "Artifact refining is nothing; with my talent, that’s something I can easily grasp. If it really comes to it, I’ll just throw spiritual objects at it. I don’t believe I can’t smash out a Refinement Grandmaster."

The Yin Yang Strategist remained speechless: "If the Sect Master knew you were squandering the Sect’s potential like this..."

"What do you mean, squandering?"

The Demon Enchantress glared at it: "I am the Sect’s Taoist, my Divine Power is the Sect’s Divine Power; likewise, the Sect’s potentiality is my potentiality. I am seizing a supreme method for the Sect, how can that be called squandering? If you keep spouting nonsense, beware I accuse you of slander!"

"Alright then!"

Yin Yang Strategist could only respond helplessly, "But didn’t you say you wanted to sign up to be a teacher at the Wandao School? Between these two matters, which is more important?"

"Of course, there’s no conflict in doing both!"

Demon Enchantress puffed out her chest, "With my talents, holding two positions at once should be a piece of cake, right?"

"Alright then."

Yin Yang Strategist sighed, "However, I suggest that you exchange for the Inverting Yin and Yang Skill later. After all, Mana Points aren’t limited by numbers; you can exchange for them anytime. But those rare and exotic treasures are different. Everyone’s eyes are on them, and you need to get ahead of the rest."

"That’s true!"

The Demon Enchantress also realized, "Right now, it’s only the Eastern Land of Bliss that has been unlocked. As time goes on, all the other Blessed Lands will open, and people from other Tao Lineages will also enter the world. The competition might become even fiercer. Wandao School is truly scheming, throwing a bone to make everyone fight to the death over it."

"My lord, please be careful in your speech!"

"Careful of what? I’m not like those two fools from Beiming Dragon Abyss and Mysterious Heaven Sword Sect... Oh right!"

The Demon Enchantress’s words were cut off mid-sentence as she suddenly revealed a wicked smile, looking at the exchange list with teasing eyes, "What expression do you think that pretty boy from Mysterious Heaven Sword Sect has right now?"

"That’s..."

...

"This is outrageous, simply outrageous!"

In another Cave Mansion, Shenxiao’s face was pale with anger as he grabbed a laptop, cursing in frustration, "Li Xuanyuan, you are unfilial, truly unfilial!"

"Demon-Slaying and Immortal-Refining Sword: Eighth Order Supreme Immortal Artifact, one of the Nine Swords of Mysterious Heaven, capable of slaughtering demons and refining immortals. It cannot be exchanged permanently, but it can be temporarily rented to comprehend the mysteries of the sword, benefiting Sword Dao practice markedly.

Exchange price: one hundred million Academic Credits for ten years!"

Looking at the exchange list featuring his own Life-bound Immortal Instrument, Shenxiao’s face turned pale, then flushed with Qi Blood—fuming with rage and indignation.

This move was clearly targeted at him!

One hundred million credits, for a ten-year rental?

Why don’t you just rob me?

Although a Supreme Immortal Artifact indeed has such value, that Supreme Immortal Artifact is his!

You’re renting out my Immortal Instrument to me?

How can someone be so shameless!

Shenxiao clenched his teeth, his eyes nearly bursting with fury, but he ultimately calmed down and opened up his Storage Ring to check the Mysterious Iron Refined Gold within.

A person must bow under the eaves!

The Demon-Slaying Immortal-Refining Sword was his Life-bound Immortal Instrument, not just a weapon for combat, but also for aiding in practice. As a disciple of the Mysterious Heaven Sword Sect who has not yet completed his cultivation, he couldn’t do without this sword.

So, even though he was being extorted like this, he only had to grit his teeth and accept it. He took out items of potentiality provided by the Mysterious Heaven Sword Sect and prepared to invest in this "contract manufacturing" work to earn Academic Credits to reclaim his Demon-Slaying Immortal-Refining Sword.

A Xuanyuan Sword of magical treasure tier can be exchanged for five hundred thousand Academic Credits, and a Nine-Rituals Xuanyuan Sword of Spiritual Treasure tier can be exchanged for five million Academic Credits.

That is to say, by refining two hundred Xuanyuan magical treasures, or twenty Nine-Ritual Xuanyuan Spiritual Treasures, he would be able to exchange for a ten-year usage right of his Demon-Slaying Immortal-Refining Sword.

Although the Mysterious Heaven Sword Sect is adept at sword crafting, two hundred magical treasures or twenty Spiritual Treasures are still a huge challenge for him, who is only at the Deity Transformation level of cultivation.

What’s more critical is that every sword he refines will fall into the hands of that person, becoming a weapon against all the great Cavern Heavens, including his own Mysterious Heaven Sword Sect, in the future.

This is aiding the enemy!

But this is an enemy he cannot afford not to aid!

That is his Life-bound Immortal Instrument, having it in one person’s hands is shameful enough, he absolutely cannot let others get ahold of it.

"Nine-Ritual Xuanyuan, Nine-Ritual Xuanyuan!"

Shenxiao clenched his teeth and clicked open the Sword Dao manual, embarking on the most painful and tormenting practice of his life.

But soon...

"This isn’t right!"

"This sword..."

Shenxiao’s eyes narrowed, his gaze fixed on the screen, looking at the Sword Dao manual: "How could such a sword-crafting method be just of Spiritual Treasure tier?"

"Or is it... that the Spiritual Treasure is just the sword embryo?"

"What exactly is the Nine-Ritual Xuanyuan?"
