Longevity: My Talents Are a Bit Abundant-Chapter 347: Tier 3 Essence Blood

Mysterious Trace True Master had just spoken.

Then Master Cold Jade spoke up: "How shall I explain this to Shen Xuan?"

"Surely we can’t say that the senior uncles fear your profound Daoist Techniques might affect the senior brothers’ cultivation, thus forbidding you from participating in the seed group competition?"

Master Gu Feng chimed in: "The Giant Furnace Refining and the secret crafting of Celestial Thunder Pearls have contributed greatly to the sect recently, Shen Xuan’s efforts being indispensable."

"How could everyone remain indifferent?"

Mysterious Trace True Master chuckled.

"Calm yourselves, both of you, junior sisters."

"Shen Xuan just wants to exchange for Tiger-faced Flood Dragon Essence Blood, that’s all."

"So let’s reduce the points for the Tiger-faced Flood Dragon Essence Blood to one hundred and twenty, and let him exchange for it!"

"Everyone, what do you think?"

Hidden Image True Master spoke first.

"Agreed! This is a win-win solution, I have no objections."

"I also have no objections."

"I support Sect Leader’s method."

The True Masters all expressed their support.

It’s just a portion of Tier Three Water Demon Essence Blood.

Let Shen Xuan exchange for it.

No need to let him stir up storms in the seed group, disturbing the prized disciples of the sect.

Considering the sect’s overall affairs, Shen Xuan also obtains the desired spiritual object, so Master Cold Jade and Master Gu Feng stopped saying more.

In summary, everyone was happy.

In the future, the likelihood of someone like Shen Xuan appearing in the preparatory group is indeed low.

Even if it does happen, it can be handled like Shen Xuan, leaving a convenient path.

In essence, as long as enough resources are given, everyone will be satisfied.

...

Cold Jade Peak.

Grotto Heaven Blessed Land.

Shen Xuan and Liu Bingyu waited anxiously.

A ball of cold light flew in.

"Master is here!"

Shen Xuan felt excited inside, yet his expression remained calm and composed.

"Shen Xuan."

"Disciple is here."

"The sect’s True Master meeting resolved not to allow you to participate in the seed group’s competition."

"Yes. Disciple follows orders."

Shen Xuan replied lightly.

Seeing Shen Xuan was slightly disappointed but remained calm, Master Cold Jade nodded in satisfaction.

In terms of temperament, Shen Xuan was indeed excellent.

No less than any Core Formation Seed in the sect.

"Master, this is unfair to senior brother!"

Liu Bingyu couldn’t help interjecting.

"Silence!"

"Realms decisions aren’t for you to question!"

Master Cold Jade sternly reprimanded Liu Bingyu.

"Bingyu, learn from your senior brother!"

Shen Xuan showed a bitter smile.

The True Master resolution is equivalent to the highest decision made by Cyan Cloud Sect.

It must be unconditionally observed.

He, a minor middle-stage Foundation Establishment disciple, would never question it.

Questioning won’t change anything, it’ll just make the situation worse for oneself.

"The senior uncles said, preventing you from joining the seed group competition protects you from detracting the Dao hearts of the Core Formation Seeds due to your strong combat capabilities."

"Moreover, it’s to protect you. ’The trees that rise above the forest are sure to be blown by the wind; Actions above others surely spark criticism.’

"You practice Water Techniques; you should understand the changeability of water. Dao Scripture says, ’The highest good is like water, benefiting all things without contending.’"

Shen Xuan bowed in salute: "Disciple understands."

"Very good. In the True Master meeting, I and Gu Feng have argued for you based on reason. The Sect Leader consulted the opinions of the senior brothers and decided to lower the points for the Tiger-faced Flood Dragon Essence Blood to one hundred and twenty points."

Upon hearing this, Shen Xuan was initially taken aback.

Then great joy filled his heart.

Isn’t this like tailor-made favor?

"Thank you, Master!"

Shen Xuan replied respectfully.

"Gu Feng said that your intention to join the seed group was solely for this item."

"I might as well directly exchange it for you, lest dreams become protracted."

A palm-sized exquisite porcelain bottle flew over.

Shen Xuan’s eyes lit up.

Even the bottle holding the Tiger-faced Flood Dragon Essence Blood is a low-grade Spatial Magical Treasure.

He quickly stowed it away.

Waves surged in his heart, his heart racing.

Even his Divine Soul showed yearning.

Profit!

This time, he’s made a massive gain!

At Foundation Establishment Fourth Layer, to own Tier Three Demon Beast Essence Blood.

And it’s Water Attribute Demon Beast Essence Blood with Divine Dragon Bloodline.

This kind of cultivation spiritual object would move even a Third-stage True Master.

"By the way, I heard from a senior brother that you and a few junior disciples from Little Gu Feng placed large bets at the Qing Yun Immortal City gambling house?"

"Not too much."

Shen Xuan briefly explained how Gu Jinqin and others teamed up with the Purple Qi Alliance, betting on him to win the championship.

"Hmm. You’ve been listed as unwelcome by the gambling houses."

"This time they admitted their loss. In the future, you cannot place any more bets at the gambling house."

Shen Xuan said smilingly: "Yes, Master, I won’t go again."

This round of gambling, the three major gambling houses worked hard, only to make bridal gowns for them.

The three major gambling houses sensed something amiss and raised the odds for Golden Core Inheritors winning the championship.

And made a big publicity push, drawing in a wave of bets.

Despite this.

Shen Xuan triumphantly won, costing them quite a lot of Spirit Stones.

If he goes again, the True Masters backing him would surely be displeased.

With a promising future and a bright path, there’s no need for Shen Xuan to offend the sect’s True Masters again.

...

After bidding farewell to Master Cold Jade, Shen Xuan went straight back to his Cave Mansion.

Gu Jinqin, the Wu sisters, and Xu Shaopeng were drinking tea in the reception room.

Seeing Shen Xuan return, they all stood up.

This time, they pocketed big winnings from the three major gambling houses.

Wu Yuting eagerly asked: "Senior brother, did you retrieve the Spirit Stones!"

"Is it time to distribute the Spirit Stones!"

Shen Xuan smiled.

"First, take back your respective capital!"

"Oh, okay!"

The capital was only three hundred thousand Spirit Stones, five thousand of which were Shen Xuan’s contribution.

Each gambling house compensated two million five hundred thousand Spirit Stones.

"I, Junior Sister Gu, Junior Brother Xu, the two Wu sisters, each take one million."

"Additionally, Senior Sister Yun, Senior Sister Wen, Junior Sister Qin, Junior Sister Liu each get three hundred thousand."

"Then take two hundred thousand to be distributed by Junior Brother Xu to those who contributed at Silver Hook Gambling House."

"The remaining two million should be split and paid to the general affairs of Cold Jade Peak and Little Gu Feng."

With just a few words, Shen Xuan allocated seven million and five hundred thousand Spirit Stones.

Ensuring that everyone had a share.

Even Master Cold Jade and Master Gu Feng each received a million in the name of sect duties.

"Do you think this allocation will work?"

"It will!"

Gu Jinqin was the first to express approval.

"Many thanks to Senior Brother Shen!"

Xu Shaopeng obviously had no objections.

Among these people, only he was an outsider.

Being able to receive one million two hundred thousand Spirit Stones was quite generous.

The Wu sisters also didn’t object.

Though they were greedy, they understood the situation clearly.

Senior Brother Shen before them was a golden opportunity.

Not only did he have a knack for making money,

but his battle prowess was truly astounding.

He was likely to condense his Inner Core in the future and become the Sect’s True Pill Master.

They didn’t want to let go of this treasure tree.

Gu Jinqin found the sisters obedient and convenient to have around for tasks.

In fact, whether the Wu sisters participated or not, it wouldn’t affect the final outcome of this gambling house incident.

"By the way, Master Cold Jade has advised, don’t go provoking the three major gambling houses in the future."

"Our Cold Jade Peak and Little Gu Feng have become unwelcome figures to the three major gambling houses."

"Haha, I knew it would be like this." Xu Shaopeng laughed heartily and then said, "Having gained a lot, it’s time for everyone to stop."

"According to the gambling house rules, if any of you go again, they will really retaliate."

Wu Yuting couldn’t help but say, "What is there to fear!"

"If Senior Brother wishes to visit the gambling house, they will have to close!"

Shen Xuan laughed.

"Enough. This matter can only happen once."

"After dividing the Spirit Stones, everyone should return home!"

"I plan to seclude myself for intensive cultivation, just right to avoid the spotlight."

Everyone nodded in agreement.

After securing their Spirit Stones, they proceeded to take their leave.

A while later.

Su Xue’Er came to tidy up the tea set.

"Xue’Er, thank you for your effort!"

Shen Xuan took out a Spirit Stone Bag and handed it over.

"This is one hundred thousand Spirit Stones, consider it for Cave Mansion expenses."

"Use it first, and ask me for more if it’s insufficient."

Su Xue’Er was quite surprised.

Her husband’s generosity was always extravagant.

But giving her one hundred thousand Spirit Stones at once was a first. 𝚏𝗿𝗲𝐞𝚠𝕖𝐛𝗻𝗼𝐯𝕖𝚕.𝚌𝗼𝗺

"Spend it as needed, don’t be too frugal!"

"I intend to seclude myself for intensive cultivation, possibly for a longer period."

Su Xue’Er smiled obediently, "Yes, husband."

"I will manage the Cave Mansion well, taking good care of the Silver-Horned Celestial Horse and the Azure Sea Spirit Clam."

"Yes, thank you for your hard work."

At this, Shen Xuan glanced at Su Xue’Er’s face, which was gradually aging.

He felt a slight sentiment.

If he remembered correctly.

Su Xue’Er was approaching fifty years old.

Even as a cultivator at the Qi Cultivation Sixth Layer.

The decay of vitality was gradually revealing itself on her face.

They hadn’t engaged in marital activities for quite some time.

Now, between him and Su Xue’Er, there was more of familial affection.

The two had accompanied each other for thirty years.

"Xue’Er, have you ever thought about returning to the Su Family at Feiyun Mountain?"

"Oh!"

Su Xue’Er was slightly taken aback.

Then she shook her head firmly.

"Xue’Er doesn’t want to return to Feiyun Mountain."

"Xue’Er only wishes to stay by husband’s side!"

"As long as husband doesn’t send Xue’Er away, Xue’Er will always stay with husband!"

Shen Xuan gently stroked Su Xue’Er’s head.

"I understand."

"As long as Xue’Er is willing, I will never send you away."

These words were sincere from Shen Xuan.

Su Xue’Er was different from Ding Yuyao.

She was a cultivator.

Even if her realm cultivation halted at Qi Cultivation Sixth Layer,

she could still help Shen Xuan manage the Cave Mansion, wash clothes, cook meals, entertain guests, and care for spirit beasts.

Moreover, Shen Xuan truly required someone trustworthy to assist with various chores and trivial matters.

As for Shangguan Yan’Er.

Not to mention that the Shangguan Family had not yet relocated near Qing Yun City.

Even if they did, Shen Xuan and Shangguan Yan’Er were purely bed companions.

Their relationship was merely one of mutual exploitation.

It wasn’t nearly as trustworthy as Su Xue’Er’s relationship.

"Alright! Go boil some water."

"Tonight, let’s take a bath together."

Upon hearing Shen Xuan’s words.

Two blushes immediately rose on Su Xue’Er’s cheeks.

"Alright! I’ll go right away!"

She knew in her heart.

In terms of marital activities, she had long been unable to satisfy her husband.

However, what did it matter!

As a family subsidiary daughter with mediocre talent, essentially a low-level cultivator.

To live with such an outstanding husband, growing old together, what else could she be dissatisfied with!

That night.

Afterward.

Shen Xuan fulfilled his obligations.

After Su Xue’Er fell into a weary sleep.

He came alone to the Practice Room.

Tier Three Water Attribute, Divine Dragon Descendant, Tiger-faced Flood Dragon Essence Blood!

Shen Xuan opened the Porcelain Bottle.

A dense aura of essence blood spirit energy permeated the air.

Simply smelling it made Shen Xuan feel refreshed and had a thrilling sensation break through his Divine Soul.

"This Porcelain Bottle is a Water Attribute Spatial Magical Treasure, of dozens of cubic meters. The contents must be a whole Tiger-faced Flood Dragon’s Essence Blood!"

Shen Xuan couldn’t contain his excitement.

"A True Pill Master is tenfold stronger than a cultivator at Foundation Establishment Perfection!"

"With that calculation, the quality of Tiger-faced Flood Dragon’s Essence Blood is over tenfold higher than Frost Snow Flood Dragon’s!"

It enhances the quality of Spirit Roots, seizes bloodline talent, advances [Nine Revolutions True Spirit Transformation], and can yield abundant Dao Rhyme Points.

Shen Xuan was somewhat impatient.
