Chapter 148: Qian Duoduo Yunxiao stood silently to the side with a hand locked in an incantation gesture. Time went by little by little; finally, Ji Meng was completely recovered with the help of the Golden Sixsun pill and the enormous life force. His cultivation base did not drop, and instead was stronger than before. He was slowly opening his eyes and about to call a stop when Yunxiao suddenly cried out, “This life force is the vitality of all things. Since the Peach Blossom Sword Intent and the Song of Blue Lotus Sword cultivated by you are both sword intents of life, take this opportunity to comprehend this feeling!” Upon hearing that, Ji Meng’s pupils constricted, and he quickly focused his mind as he began to comprehend. He had found the aura very comfortable and friendly, but he did not expect that it was related to the martial essence cultivated by him. At Yunxiao’s reminder, he immediately had a feeling of enlightenment, and he soon fell into a wonderful state. Zhang Qingfan and Xu Han seemed to catch something as well. They exchanged a look, then sat cross-legged down together and began to meditate. Although they were fourth-tier alchemists, they were also Martial Masters. As they comprehended the life force, their cultivation base of martial arts, which had been stuck for years, began to show signs of loosening up. Bam! A brief moment later, a faint rumbling sound exploded out of Ji Meng’s body. His enormous form began to shrink rapidly as if it were leaking air, and it only stopped when it was back to its normal size. But, the life force in the surroundings rushed even faster into him from all directions, and did not stop until it reached a maximum level within him. As if influenced by Ji Meng’s breakthrough, Zhang Qingfan and Xu Han moved their eyebrows and opened their eyes, which had an incredulous look in them. Streams of life force poured into them frantically as both of them broke through at the same time. Martial arts had a very strong enhancement effect on a warrior’s lifespan. For example, a Martial Sovereign could live for two to three hundred years. Alchemy had a similar effect, but not as significant. Zhang Qingfan and Xu Han had already reached the old age of mortals, and their cultivation in alchemy and martial arts had reached the bottlenecks, which could hardly be broken through with their remaining years. But unexpectedly, not only did they break through into the fourth-tier of alchemy, but even their stagnant cultivation base of martial arts had begun to regain their vitality. “Tsk, tsk, your cultivation base…A four-stars Martial Master and a seven-stars Martial Master…You are stronger than me. Why don’t you join my Greed Team?” Yunxiao teased with a smile. Both men looked shocked and grateful, but they burst into laughter upon hearing that. It would be quite fun and exciting if they were fighting and killing with a group of young people. Zhang Qingfan glanced at Ji Meng and said enviously, “Congratulations on another breakthrough, Commander Ji! It has only been a while, but Commander Ji has jumped from a seven-stars Martial Master to a five-stars Martial Lord. Such a speed can no longer be described as terrifying.” Ji Meng laughed. “Are you not the same?” All three of them were filled with mixed emotions as they looked at Yunxiao gratefully, who only chuckled. But, he suddenly frowned, and his face grew serious. That gave the three men a pause. “What happened, Young Master Yun?” asked Ji Meng. Yunxiao narrowed his eyes and sneered, “Here comes a tricky one. Master Zhang, Master Xu, I’ll leave this to you. Ji Meng, come with me.” Not waiting for Zhang Qingfan and Xu Han to answer, he performed an incantation gesture with his right hand, and then both their bodies began to turn illusive in the cavern. The Divine Realm Tablet was his mystic artifact, so he could come and go with just a thought. In the blink of an eye, both of them appeared in the City Lord Manson, and they immediately felt a great pressure from outside. Meanwhile, several figures shot into the sky, bolting out of the mansion. One of the figures was Xiao Qingwang. After he went outside, the pressure immediately weakened. Li Chunyang, Luo Yunshang, and the others also went out, and only then did all the people in the mansion breath a sigh of relief, as if a huge stone was removed from their chests. Yunxiao strode out with a serious face. The visitor was very strong; if he were here to make trouble, it would be very difficult to handle. There was a large empty space in front of the door where the registration was done. Many warriors were watching from far away with fear in their eyes. In the middle of the open space stood an untidy man. He stretched himself lazily and yawned as if he had just woken up, and then said, “What are you afraid of? I’m just here to sign up. Are you not going to let me sign up?” Xiao Qingwang’s face was grave. The man’s aura was not weaker than his, and if they were to fight, he had a feeling that he might be no match for him. ‘How would an expert like this want to join Yanwu? He is most probably sent by some powers to make trouble here.’ Li Chunyang, Luo Yunshang, and the others stood behind Xiao Qingwang with solemn faces. The man also put a great pressure on them, and cold sweats were already seeping out of their palms. 𝒻𝓇𝑒𝘦𝘸𝑒𝒷𝓃ℴ𝑣𝘦𝑙.𝒸ℴ𝘮 “Of course, you can sign up!” Yunxiao narrowed his eyes slightly as he walked up with a faint smile and said, “Yanwu does need a nine-stars Martial King like you.” The warriors behind the man all sucked in a cold breath in horror and moved back a few more steps as they began to talk to one another in low voices. “A nine-stars Martial King? No wonder his aura is so strong! I feel suffocated just by getting closer to him!” “Is he a fake one? How would a nine-stars Martial King come to a small city like this?” “Have you forgotten that behind Yanwu is the Myriad Treasures Store? So, it is normal for a nine-stars Martial King to come here. Even Myriad Treasures Store itself already has two Martial Grandmasters!” “Haha! It seems that we did not come to the wrong place. Even a nine-stars Martial King is here. It looks like Yanwu is worthy for our service!” Just as the crowd was chatting noisily, the middle-aged man was slightly taken aback by the fact that Yunxiao could tell his cultivation base at a glance. But then he laughed and thought it must be the nine-stars Martial King in front of him who told the lad with a voice transmission. “Good! I’m Qian Duoduo, a nine-stars Martial King, and I’m here to sign up. What are you going to pay me? Get your City Lord out here to talk to me.” Yunxiao smiled and said, “I am the City Lord. What do you want me to pay you? I will satisfy you.” Qian Duoduo froze and said incredulously, “You are the City Lord? A fifteen years old boy?” When he saw the people around them did not speak a word, he knew it was not a lie. He thought for a moment, then suddenly laughed and said, “When a Martial Lord joins you, he will receive a third-tier mystic weapon, ten fourth-tier medicinal pills of any kinds, and ten thousand superior-grade Primordial Stones. I want a fourth-tier mystic weapon, ten fifth-tier medicinal pills of any kinds, and one hundred thousand superior-grade Primordial Stones.” The crowd sucked in a cold breath. Each of the three things he asked was extremely expensive. But then it was reasonable, because he was a Martial King. Yunxiao frowned as he nodded slightly and said, “What you ask for is reasonable, but we will have a little problem with the fifth-tier medicinal pills. What kind of medicinal pills do you want?” “The Pure Sky pill!” Qian Duoduo said. “I want ten Pure Sky pills!” Pure Sky pills? Everyone paused, then frowned and shook their heads. Clearly, they had not heard of this medicinal pill before. But, since it was a fifth-tier medicinal pill, it was normal that they had not heard of it before. Qian Duoduo chuckled. “It is alright that you haven’t heard of this medicinal pill. Just tell the power behind you that I will join Yanwu immediately if they can give me ten Pure Sky pills. They don’t even need to give me a mystic weapon and Primordial Stones.” Pure Sky pill was a kind of extremely rare specially-made medicinal pill. Its effect was simple, and few alchemists knew how to refine it. But, since the Myriad Treasures Store was behind Yanwu, then they could definitely find it for him. In fact, Myriad Treasures Store’s strength was the most important reason that made him come here to sign up. Yunxiao’s pupils constricted, and he had a surprised look on his face. Suddenly, he sent his divine sense toward Qian Duoduo. There was a strange mocking smile on Qian Duoduo’s face. ‘He’s just a mere Martial Master, and yet he’s trying to study me with his divine sense. Hah!’ he laughed in his heart. But, the smile on his face froze suddenly, then turned into a shocked look, and finally, he was completely dumbstruck. His divine sense defense was directly broken by Yunxiao. A mighty divine sense crazily rushed into his body and examined him from top to bottom, and there was no way he could resist it. That terrified him. Hastily, he released his Primordial Qi and formed a powerful shield with it, which completely cut off Yunxiao’s divine sense and expelled it from his body. The shock on his face was plain to see. “Alchemist! You are a fourth-tier alchemist!” Only the divine sense of a fourth-tier alchemist was strong enough to examine him like that. “How is this possible! You are so young!” Qian Duoduo was completely awestruck. He was sure that the lad in front of him was only fifteen years old, but he also knew that only a fourth-tier alchemist could have a divine sense that was so strong that even he, a nine-stars Martial King, could not resist. Yunxiao chuckled, as if he had confirmed the thought in his mind. With a faint smile, he said, “We don’t have Pure Sky pills, but we can give you something else.” Qian Duoduo’s face flickered, and there was a trace of anger in his eyes. He snorted coldly and said, “I only want Pure Sky pills. Don’t waste my time if you can’t give them to me!” He turned and was about to leave. “Some time ago, I had read a strange cultivation technique called the Broken Moon Scroll in a certain place.” Qian Duoduo halted instantly and could no longer take another step, as if his feet were filled with lead. He turned around with a shocked face and asked in disbelief, “Who…Who exactly are you? How do you know about the Broken Moon Scroll? And you have even read it?” “Hehe! You don’t need to know that. So, is the Broken Moon Scroll enough to pay for your services?” Yunxiao smiled. The calm and confident look on his face said that he had the man in his grip now. “Enough! More than enough!” Qian Duoduo was very excited. His body shivered and his eyes lit up as he said loudly, “But, how do I know you’re not lying to me?”
