Chapter 1215: Soul Nourishing Art
After Gong Zhuo bowed slightly, he quickly praised, “I didn’t think that True Immortal Shang would have such amazing skills... You even managed to raise the cultivation realm of your clone...”
“Haha...” Shang Xia smiled, “These are just some small tricks. There is no need to make it seem so exaggerated. I embarrassed myself here.”
“This isn’t just some small trick...” Gong Zhuo muttered to himself, but he quickly turned to look at Shang Xia’s clone again. Eventually, he mumbled, “I am here for the Tribulation Pearl.”
Shang Xia laughed in response. “Since you have come again, I believe that you found my offer acceptable. However, what I wish to know is that the Tribulation Pearl seems completely unrelated to you. You’re from the Wanyun Association, while True Immortal Lin’s junior brother is from the Qingling Palace. You’re from different factions anyway... Why are you so interested in getting it back? Also... Why haven’t either of them appeared?”
Gong Zhuo was slightly taken aback by Shang Xia’s question, but his expression quickly darkened and he growled, “True Immortal Shang, does our deal consist of you trying to dig into our private matters?”
“Haha...” Shang Xia quickly continued, “True Immortal Gong, I hope you don’t misunderstand. It’s just a casual question. Since you’re not willing to tell, let’s just work on the deal with the Tribulation Pearl. Of course, if you’re willing to introduce the situation in your world, I’m not opposed to lowering the price. I’ll reduce the price by a high-grade weapon, how’s that?”
A strange smile appeared on Gong Zhuo’s face and he snorted softly, “You wish to obtain information about my world with the price of a high-grade weapon? That’s an impressive plan... If I didn’t know any better, I would think that you seem to be in a hurry to learn more about my Essence Xing World.”
Shang Xia smirked casually, “We should learn more about others the best we can. Even though I don’t hope that our worlds form a grudge where either of us has to destroy each other, it’s important to understand the other side. At the very least, when I head back to make a report to my elders, I’ll be able to produce some results, right?”
“Haha... True Immortal Shang, looks like you play a pretty influential role in your world...” Gong Zhuo smiled.
Shang Xia sighed with a playful grin, “Sorry to disappoint... I might be important, but I don’t call the shots. There are many other greater powers I have to convince if I wish to do something.”
“Even though a high-grade weapon is nothing to me, it\'s fine. I am willing to share the names of famous experts of my world and the general power structure. I’ll take this as a chance to make a friend...” Gong Zhuo eventually chuckled.
Shang Xia didn’t show any emotions as he spoke casually, “I’ll be honored to make a friend then.”
“Alright, business first.” Gong Zhuo’s smile disappeared and he turned serious all of a sudden. He waved his hand, and 5 weapons, a sealed jade bottle, a strange wooden chest that looked like a spatial artifact, and 3 other sealed spiritual cases appeared in front of him.
Pointing at 2 of the 5 weapons, he introduced, “These are the divine weapons, and the whip is called the Aperture Node, and the dagger... You can call it the Spirit Intent Annihilator.”
Pausing slightly, a trade of reluctance flashed in his eyes but he managed to suppress his emotions before pointing at the other weapons. “These are high-grade weapons!”
After he was done, he saw that Shang Xia was staring at the sealed spirit bottle with a look of interest and he quickly introduced, “A rank six advancement is contained in here, and it’s called the Golden Scale Silver Wing Paste. True Immortal Shang, are you interested in it?”
Shang Xia simply chuckled. There was no way he would not be interested in it. With a rank six advancement medicine, it was extremely likely they would be able to produce another True Immortal!
However, he didn’t know where the advancement medicine came from, and even if he did, the Golden Scale Silver Wing Paste wasn’t produced by their alchemists. He wouldn’t allow other people to use it...
Shaking his head, Shang Xia turned to look at the wooden chest.
Gong Zhuo opened it after he noticed Shang Xia’s gaze and there were high-grade essence crystals neatly arranged in it. Shang Xia could tell there were more than a hundred of them with a single glance, and he knew that it was a considerable sum even as a True Immortal.
Because of Shang Xia’s lack of reaction, Gong Zhuo felt that he was waiting for the introduction of every other treasure and he simply opened the cases left. “There are 2 types of rank six spiritual herbs and a rank six spiritual treasure contained in them. There is a bundle of Nebula Yarn, a piece of Chaos Stone, and a Cloud Frost Lotus.”
Seeing how Shang Xia was still not saying anything, Gong Zhuo muttered in a cold voice, “As long as the value is comparable to the Tribulation Pearl, you can choose whatever you want. I believe you can tell my sincerity from these treasures.”
Shang Xia glanced at the treasures before asking without raising his head, “Were these the treasures all 3 of you gathered?”
Gong Zhuo suddenly burst out laughing, “It has only been a while since I left. These are all we could gather.”
Shang Xia nodded before grabbing the dagger under Gong Zhuo’s gaze. He couldn’t help but chuckle, “It’s no wonder you even put your divine weapon up for trade... However... If I have to choose something suitable for me, I can only choose this dagger!”
Gong Zhuo sighed with exasperation. “True Immortal Shang, have you really decided to take my weapon?”
Looking at Gong Zhuo’s stubborn gaze on the dagger, Shang Xia asked, “Is this divine weapon really important to you?”
Gong Zhuo coughed once before forcing a smile. However, he didn’t respond.
Shang Xia seemed to have made his decision. He spoke in a low voice, “True Immortal Gong, even though I don’t know the reason you are so desperate to retrieve the Tribulation Pearl that you are willing to put your personal weapon up for trade, I can tell how important the Spirit Intent Annihilator is to you.”
“What are you trying to say?” Gong Zhuo muttered in a strangely calm tone.
Shang Xia’s grin widened. “I actually have another small request. If you are willing to promise me, not only will I give up on taking this dagger. I won’t take any of these...”
Gong Zhuo wasn’t happy at the sudden proposition, and he became even more serious. “What do you want?”
Becoming a little more solemn, Shang Xia finally revealed his true intentions. “I wish to obtain your secret art. How did you create the phantom of the dagger after you broke through my domain?”
Gong Zhuo was taken aback by the sudden request and he blurted, “So you’re aiming for the Soul Nourishing Art!”
