C50 To Bid for the Immortal Jade Grass
"Absolute Star Desolation Body..." Jun Ling's eyes were filled with shock. Just by hearing the name, he felt like he was looking down on the world. For a moment, he had some faint anticipation towards the late stage of the Absolute Star Desolation Body. After all, it was every Martial Cultivator's dream to reach the peak. Countless people threw away their heads and shed their blood because of this. However, many of them turned into skeletons along the way. They had become the cornerstone of others' path to the peak.
"We still have to work hard in our cultivation. There is still a long way to go before reaching the first level of the Dao Stage!"
Jun Ling clenched his fists and his eyes were filled with fighting spirit. At this time, Liyuan suddenly said, "I have sensed what you are carrying since you came out of Dark Devil Mountain Range. I have never had the chance to ask."
"Something?" Jun Ling was stunned for a moment and then touched his body. He took out a walnut-sized, clear, and bright crystal from his pocket. It was like a flawless crystal. He could feel a shocking aura from the bead.
"The inner core of a Golden-Winged Condor." Liyuan looked at the inner core in Jun Ling's hand suspiciously and said, "Did you bring it out from Dark Devil Mountain Range?" Jun Ling nodded and said, "When I left the Heaven Shaking Divine Ape, I took a few high grade Desolate Beasts inner cores. I'm a little embarrassed. "
"But why would the Golden Winged Condor appear here... I'm afraid that the Divine Ape you met is not simple." Liyuan's words seemed to be somewhat obscure. A bright glint flashed in his aged eyes. Jun Ling stroked the inner core of the Golden Winged Eagle in his hand and said, "What's so strange about it? Is it very difficult for the Heaven Shaking Divine Ape to deal with the Golden Winged Eagle? "
"Dealing with the Golden Winged Eagle is not difficult. The Heaven Shaking Divine Ape is a high grade Desolate Beast to begin with. Its strength was self-evident. The reason why it was strange was because something was wrong with the place where the Golden Winged Eagle had appeared. Kid, you have limited experience, but you can't fool this old man! "Liyuan said confidently.
" What do you mean? "
" The Golden Winged Eagle isn't the Desolate Beast of the East Continent. It is an existence that roamed the world of the West Continent. It lives on the peak of a mountain. Does the Purple Wind Country have such a place? " Liyuan said with a smile that wasn't a smile.
"There was indeed a towering mountain in the Dark Devil Mountain Range. As for where this inner core came from, I have no idea." Jun Ling shrugged his shoulders and expressed his helplessness.
"Forget it. It doesn't matter now, but you must keep this Inner Core well. You might need it when you break through to the origin realm. In my opinion, this inner core isn't special. It should be between the fifth and Grade Six, and the amount of Yuan energy it contains should be enough for you to cultivate for a while." Liyuan didn't continue to ponder about the inner core, but he had a strong feeling in his heart.
That Divine Ape... was definitely not a simple Desolate Beast. At that time, Jun Ling was in a state of deep sleep while cultivating. He only woke up after Jun Ling returned to the Vast Wave Academy. Although he could sense what was happening outside during his deep sleep, he was still able to sense what was happening outside. The only thing he could feel was that he was still unclear about the other things.
He chatted with Liyuan until late into the night before Jun Ling slowly fell asleep. Tang Wenshu and the other two men on the other three beds had slept like dead pigs. They slept comfortably all night without any books.
The next morning, Jun Ling was still diligently practicing his boxing in Martial Training Field. He had already mastered the All Creations Cloud Swimming Fist, and with the Cloud Swimming Steps, he was now in close combat. Jun Ling could also gain a big advantage, and this was another reason why he kept practicing. It was to absorb the power of the stars in the sky.
The constitution of the Astral Exquisite Body was derived from the energy of the stars. This kind of energy could only be sensed by those who cultivated the Astral Exquisite Body. Every time the day changed, countless powers of the stars would be scattered in the world. However, the power of the stars was changing every single moment, and it was dissipating very quickly. Basically, the power of the stars would be released in every breath, so Jun Ling didn't dare to delay any longer.
Although there was a large amount of the power of the stars in the air, only a small part of it could be absorbed. If the star power in the world was compared to a pool of clear water, then the amount Jun Ling could absorb could only be after using a spoon of water. The small portion of the water that touched the spoon showed how harsh the cultivation of the Astral Exquisite Body was.
In the azure sky, there were countless tiny sparkling dots. They slowly converged into Jun Ling's body, and soon seeped into the surface of his skin. When they merged into Jun Ling's limbs and bones, it actually made Jun Ling's energy even more abundant. Every time his body absorbed a little bit of star power, Jun Ling's body would shine for a short period of time. That kind of brightness was fleeting, and no one noticed it.
Leng Ning sat on the resting platform and chatted with many young girls. Tang Wenshu and the others were playing on the side. Everything seemed so peaceful and warm, just as everyone was immersed in their cultivation. Loong Feng brought a few students to Martial Training Field and walked straight to Jun Ling.
"Mr. Loong!"
Jun Ling slightly cupped his fists. Loong Feng looked at Jun Ling and smiled. "I have a task for you." When Jun Ling heard this, he immediately became alert. He said, "What mission?" Leng Ning and the others also came over and stood behind Jun Ling. Loong Feng took out a black ring that was completely cold. It was inlaid with a black gem. It looked very mysterious and strange.
"Teacher, this is?" Jun Ling looked at the ring with a puzzled expression.
"Space Ring, there are 20 million gold in it." Loong Feng smiled and threw the ring to Jun Ling. Jun Ling quickly caught the ring with his hand. He pinched it with his fingers and looked at it as he said, "Is there any salary for cultivation?"
"What are you thinking about?" Loong Feng said unhappily, "This is the task given to you. The people in the inner courtyard have been very busy these two days. Therefore, only you in the Martial Academy can bear this heavy responsibility." Jun Ling put away the ring and said seriously, "Teacher, just tell me what to do."
"Yes, there is an auction in the Stallion Chamber of Commerce in Imperial Emperor City these two days. There's one thing that I hope you guys can bid for. It's called Immortal Grass! The medicinal properties of the Immortal Grass were mild, and neither hot nor hot. The Dan Courtyard intended to concoct a large batch of Immortal Immortal Grass Pills. It is designed to help students break through to the Dao Stage, and help them control the Dao Stage Power faster. Therefore, they had to get the Immortal Grass for this auction. Of course! I'll do my best. If I really can't win the bid, then forget it."
Jun Ling nodded when he heard Loong Feng's words. Immediately, he said with some worry, "I'm afraid that the Immortal Grass is also someone that other people are bidding for. Is this twenty million enough?" Loong Feng crossed his arms and thought for a moment. He said, "The academy only has this much budget. If it really doesn't work, then forget it."
"Yes. When will we set off?" Jun Ling put the ring on his hand and asked.
"Now, tomorrow is the auction. You can go and try the water first. Leng Ning and Tang Wenshu will go with you." Leng Ning and the others immediately burst into cheers as soon as Loong Feng finished speaking. Jun Ling did not stay any longer and went down the mountain with Leng Ning and the rest, heading towards Imperial Emperor City.
