Chapter 2615: Ten Divine Realms

"I am Wang Zonglang, and I greet Fellow Daoist Tian and Mrs. Tian." Wang Zonglang clasped his hands together and said courteously.

"There's no need to be so polite, Fellow Daoist Wang. May I ask the purpose of your visit to our Heavenly Shadow Sect?" Tian Feiyu asked politely, his eyes full of confusion.

The Heavenly Shadow Sect had no close ties with the Wang family, nor did they have any conflicts of interest. Wang Zonglang's sudden visit left Tian Feiyu unsure of his intentions.

"I heard that Mrs. Tian acquired a sixth-tier Wood Demon's core. I'd like to exchange for it. I can offer healing elixirs, sixth-tier talismans, Heaven-reaching spirit treasures, diluted good fortune divine water, Thousand Spirit Jade Liquid, or other items," Wang Zonglang said courteously. This was his first time handling family affairs.

Tian Feiyu and Lin Manman exchanged glances, both stunned.

"Exchange for a Wood Demon core?" Tian Feiyu hadn't expected Wang Zonglang's visit to be for this reason.

"That's right. Other items are also acceptable. I promise Mrs. Tian will not suffer any loss. What do you say?" Wang Zonglang said sincerely.

"I apologize. That Wood Demon core has another significant use for us. If Fellow Daoist Wang could offer items like the Sea Suppressing Bead or a Five-Element Thunder-Cloud Talisman in exchange, then it might be possible," Tian Feiyu said solemnly.

Wang Zonglang frowned, saying, "Fellow Daoist Tian must be joking. It's just a sixth-tier Wood Demon core. A seventh-tier Wood Demon core would be a different matter."

"We don't have a seventh-tier Wood Demon core," Lin Manman shook her head.

"In that case, I apologize for the disturbance. I have other matters to attend to, so I won't stay long. Farewell." Wang Zonglang stood up to leave. The Heavenly Shadow Sect was quite powerful, with a sixth-tier alchemist, formation master, and artifact refiner. Exchanging items with them was indeed not easy.

"Wait, Fellow Daoist Wang." Tian Feiyu called out to Wang Zonglang, then changed his tone, saying, "The sixth-tier Wood Demon core can be exchanged, but we need spiritual items that assist cultivators at the Void Refinement stage in breaking through to the Integration stage."

"Fellow Daoist Tian, are you taking me for a fool?" Wang Zonglang's expression showed displeasure. A sixth-tier Wood Demon core for a spiritual item that aids breakthrough to the Integration stage? That was a joke.

"Fellow Daoist Wang, please don't misunderstand. Besides the Wood Demon core, we have other items. I wonder if Fellow Daoist Wang has heard of the Good Fortune Divine Soil?" Tian Feiyu said solemnly.

"What? Good Fortune Divine Soil? That's one of the Ten Great Divine Soils! Even an ordinary herb can grow for ten thousand years in it. Cultivating spirit plants with Good Fortune Divine Soil can even produce shapeshifting spirit herbs," Wang Zonglang exclaimed, his face full of suspicion.

There were many unique types of spiritual soil in the cultivation world. The spirit herb gardens of major powers all used special spiritual soil to cultivate spirit herbs. If Tian Feiyu truly had Good Fortune Divine Soil, he could directly exchange it with a major power; there would be no need to exchange it with the Wang family. Wang Changsheng had obtained Azure Moon Breath Soil from the Profound Wind Cave Heaven, which could accelerate the growth of spirit herbs, but this acceleration was very slow; otherwise, it would have been listed among the Ten Great Divine Soils. The Ten Great Divine Soils were the ten most unique spiritual soils in parallel realms like the Profound Yang Realm, all possessing incredible effects. Good Fortune Divine Soil was the most precious among them.

"I don't have Good Fortune Divine Soil. What I have is Great Breath Divine Soil. Great Breath Divine Soil is also one of the Ten Great Divine Soils, though it ranks at the bottom. It has excellent effects in cultivating spirit herbs, and if refined into an earth-attributed treasure, its power is considerable," Tian Feiyu said slowly. Great Breath Divine Soil could automatically absorb spiritual energy from heaven and earth, which was beneficial for the growth of spirit herbs and fruits. Precious spirit herbs or fruit trees required irrigation with spring water from spirit eyes, and some even needed to be cultivated with spirit liquid. If the spiritual soil lacked spiritual energy, the growth of the spirit herbs or fruit trees would be somewhat affected. Some major powers would set up spirit gathering formations in their spirit herb gardens to ensure the spiritual soil had ample spiritual energy for the growth of spirit herbs and fruit trees. Great Breath Divine Soil perfectly solved this problem, providing ample spiritual energy for spirit herbs and fruit trees without needing spirit gathering formations.

"We cannot provide spiritual items that assist in breaking through to the Integration stage. Even with Great Breath Divine Soil, exchanging for such items is simply impossible," Wang Zonglang said with a frown.

Tian Feiyu took out a green jade slip and handed it to Wang Zonglang, saying, "If you have the items listed on this, it's also acceptable. Besides the Great Breath Divine Soil, we can offer multiple Wood Demon cores or materials for Dharmic Aspects in exchange. I know your Wang family doesn't have them, but Zhenhai Palace does."

"Heavenly Illusion Fruit, Heavenly Soul True Water... Blood Jade Flat Peach!" Wang Zonglang read the contents of the jade slip. These items all had some auxiliary effect on Void Refinement cultivators breaking through to the Integration stage.

"Fellow Daoist Tian, why don't you go directly to Zhenhai Palace or other major powers for the exchange?" Wang Zonglang asked, puzzled.

"The items our Heavenly Shadow Sect can offer are also available to major powers; only the Great Breath Divine Soil is relatively precious. I wanted to ask your Wang family to act as an intermediary. If you can obtain any of these items, we will be deeply grateful," Tian Feiyu explained. Major powers like Zhenhai Palace simply didn't value what he had to offer. Great Breath Divine Soil alone was not enough to exchange for spiritual items that aided breakthroughs to the Integration stage; otherwise, they would have already obtained them.

"I can help with this, but to exchange for any spiritual item that aids breakthroughs to the Integration stage, you will need to offer a significant amount of resources in return," Wang Zonglang reminded him.

"Naturally. After the matter is concluded, we will certainly offer a generous reward," Tian Feiyu said sincerely. The Heavenly Shadow Sect had three late-stage Void Refinement cultivators. If even one of them advanced to the Integration stage, the Heavenly Shadow Sect could grow stronger again.

"To show our sincerity, this Wood Demon core is for Fellow Daoist Wang as a deposit," Lin Manman took out an exquisite green jade box and handed it to Wang Zonglang.

Wang Zonglang opened the jade box and saw a green crystal with some golden patterns on its surface, emitting a pure wood spiritual energy fluctuation.

"Good. I will report back immediately. If we cannot manage it, we will not take anything from Fellow Daoist Tian," Wang Zonglang put away the jade box, turned, and left.

Green Lotus Island.

A massive blue lake, where a Sea-Suppressing Ape was frolicking.

A sharp chirping sound echoed, and a Seven-Colored Sparrow descended from the sky, landing in front of the ape. Wang Tianlong sat on the back of the Seven-Colored Sparrow. Wang Tianlong was the clan member personally appointed by Wang Changsheng to care for the Seven-Colored Sparrow and the Sea-Suppressing Ape. He was currently at the late Soul Transformation stage. The Seven-Colored Sparrow was already a sixth-tier beast, but the Sea-Suppressing Ape was only a fifth-tier high-grade beast. The Sea-Suppressing Ape had been brought up from the lower realm by Wang Changsheng, and Wang Tianlong had diligently cared for it, trying many methods, yet the Sea-Suppressing Ape had still been unable to advance to the sixth tier.

The Sea-Suppressing Ape saw Wang Tianlong and let out a loud roar, beating its chest as if it had seen a loved one.

Just as Wang Tianlong was about to say something, a loud chirping sound came from high in the sky. Another Seven-Colored Sparrow descended from the sky, with Sun Yuejiao sitting on its back.

"Grandson greets Ancestor Yuejiao!" Wang Tianlong quickly bowed.

Sun Yuejiao nodded, took out a porcelain bottle and a jade box, and handed them to Wang Tianlong, saying, "This is the demonic core and essence blood of a sixth-tier mid-grade Profound Water Ape. Feed it to the Sea-Suppressing Ape! I hope it can advance to the sixth tier." The Wang family was flourishing. Both the Seven-Colored Sparrow and the Sea-Suppressing Ape were being cultivated as protective spirit beasts for the clan. It remained to be seen which of them would achieve greater success.
