Chapter 741: Xu Hei gives Dan
Li Changge asked this question to test whether Jiang Nine Phoenix was deceiving them."What she said matches the ancient records, so she probably isn't lying," Li Changge thought to himself.
"It seems that this Ascension Token really can't be taken by force, otherwise I would have been tempted to act," Li Changge inwardly smiled bitterly.
"So, this place is just a platform for receiving people from the Spirit Realm..." Huang Tiancheng was greatly disappointed.
Not only him, but everyone present lost interest upon hearing this news.
Since this place couldn't help them ascend and only served to guide people from the Upper Realm, what significance did it hold for them? They risked their lives to get here, only to find it was all for nothing?
"In that case, how can we leave this place?" Flame Demon Ancestor suddenly asked.
Jiang Nine Phoenix took out the Ascension Token, walked to a stone platform, and pressed it onto the ground.
In an instant, a teleportation array appeared on the stone platform.
"This array leads directly to the outer hall of Guanghan Palace. You can leave through it," Jiang Nine Phoenix said.
Flame Demon Ancestor didn't doubt her and stepped directly onto the array.
Blood Knife Patriarch and Lady White Bone followed shortly after.
Blood Knife Patriarch sent a message, "Flame Demon Brother, don't you find it strange? If Guanghan Palace is just a tool set up by the Flying Spirit Platform, why make it so complicated?"
"Could this woman be deceiving us?"
Wei Wudao also sent a message expressing his doubts.
Flame Demon Ancestor couldn't be bothered to listen. He activated the teleportation array and said, "I'm not in the mood to fight here. If I delay any longer, the Blood Refining Sect might face destruction."
"What?!" Blood Knife Patriarch was shocked.
This sudden news left both of them stunned.
"Before, I held back and didn't show any signs, but now I'll tell you! Just three days ago, Fire Qilin Ancestor's soul flame extinguished," Flame Demon Ancestor transmitted.
The two fell into a deathly silence.
No wonder Flame Demon Ancestor was in such a hurry to leave; his expression wasn't good when entering the hall. It turned out to be because of this. Fire Qilin Ancestor's sudden fall was a major event that could change the Seven Stars' balance.
"Buzz!"
The teleportation array flashed, and everyone disappeared.
Wei Wudao didn't dare linger and quickly followed suit, disappearing as well.
Next, the members of Yan Dao Sect and Tianhen Sword Sect left one after another using the teleportation array. Since staying was meaningless, they wouldn't waste time.
Then it was the turn of the Sea Star Demon Clan.
"Please wait."
Xu Hei called out to them.
Shi Lan and the others stopped and looked at Xu Hei.
Xu Hei took out ten bottles of pills and handed them over to the group. "Thank you all for your help earlier. Consider these as a token of gratitude."
These were just a small part of what he had collected, but for this group of cultivators, it was a timely gift.
"No need to be polite. We helped you to help ourselves," Shi Lan initially wanted to decline.
But seeing the people from Heavenly Sand Star quickly stash five bottles into their storage bags, Gongsun Bo clasped his hands and said, "Brother Xu, I won't be polite either. I will remember your kindness today. If there's anything you need in the future, just send me a message."
He took out a communication talisman and handed it to Xu Hei.
Seeing his teammates accept the pills, Shi Lan no longer refused and put them away. Xu Hei also sent an extra marked bottle to Hai Teng.
This bottle contained a Divine Fusion Pill, which could help break through the bottleneck of the Divine Transformation Stage.
Hai Teng accepted it without even looking.
"Xu Hei, I don't like owing favors either. This jade slip isn't anything special, take it." Hai Teng tossed a jade slip over.
Xu Hei caught the jade slip and put it away without examining it.
With that, the two groups bid farewell and left.
Only Night Owl, Han Te, Jiang Nine Phoenix, Xu Hei, and Old Tree remained.
"Brother Han, thank you for your help earlier. I'll give you this Divine Fusion Pill," Xu Hei offered.
"Divine Fusion Pill?" Han Te's eyes widened.
Xu Hei thought he would be overjoyed to accept it.
Unexpectedly, Han Te shook his head and said, "I told you, I don't want these treasures. Just give me the equivalent in spirit stones."
This statement left not only Xu Hei stunned but also Night Owl in shock.
This was a treasure for Divine Transformation cultivators, with a chance to help break through bottlenecks! What Divine Transformation cultivator wouldn't want it?
Equivalent in spirit stones? No amount of spirit stones could buy a Divine Fusion Pill.
"I'll give you the equivalent, and the pill is mine! How many Supreme Spirit Stones do you want?" Night Owl quickly took out some spirit stones.
"Twenty, but of course, the more the better. If you give more, I won't refuse," Han Te laughed.
Only twenty Supreme Spirit Stones, which surprised Night Owl.
With that, Han Te left after receiving twenty Supreme Spirit Stones.
After receiving some pills, Night Owl also left tactfully, knowing Xu Hei had some secrets but not probing further.
Once everyone had left, Old Tree sneered, "Alright, little girl, it's time you told us the secret of this place. Don't tell me everything you said earlier was true."
"As expected, I couldn't hide it from you, senior."
Jiang Nine Phoenix smiled bitterly, then looked at Xu Hei and said, "But before I tell you, can you help me remove the seal on me?"
"Seal?"
Xu Hei was taken aback.
The seal Tu Sen left in her body hadn't been removed?
"Xu Hei, I know it wasn't you who did it, but you should have a way to remove it, right?" Jiang Nine Phoenix looked at him earnestly.
The seal in her body had been mostly undone after being captured by the Ancestor from Medicine King Valley, allowing her to cultivate on her own.
But as long as that mark remained, Xu Hei's image would always appear before her eyes, whether she was unconscious or cultivating, like a nightmare that couldn't be dispelled, etched deep in her heart.
Even in her dreams, it was Xu Hei, as if she had been cursed.
Otherwise, she wouldn't have returned to the Spirit Realm for help.
Xu Hei shook his head and said, "To be honest, that seal was left by an ancestor I summoned. To remove it, I would have to summon that ancestor again, but I can't guarantee what he would do."
Xu Hei explained briefly, and Jiang Nine Phoenix nodded, "Alright, I understand. But it's okay, once I return to the Spirit Realm, I'll have a way to remove it."
Then, Jiang Nine Phoenix revealed the secret of the Flying Spirit Platform to the two.
It turned out that the Ascension Token wasn't exclusive to people from the Spirit Realm; cultivators from the mortal realm could also possess it and ascend to the Spirit Realm.
Upon hearing this, Old Tree's eyes lit up with excitement.
"Just as I suspected! The Ascension Token is meant for us Void-breaking cultivators who can't ascend, and Guanghan Palace is the reception point established by the Flying Spirit Platform."
"As long as we pass the tests ahead, we can ascend here!"
Old Tree's aura became chaotic, but then he calmed down, with more doubts surfacing in his mind.
He cooled down and said, "Little girl, aren't you afraid I'll make a move and snatch your Ascension Token after telling me all this?"
