CHAPTER 269: CHAPTER 256: EXCHANGE, FORTUNE SKYROCKETS

Shi Nian introduced, "This Great Emperor is proficient in zither, chess, calligraphy, and painting. These cultivation techniques are supreme techniques that incorporate zither, chess, calligraphy, and painting into cultivation. These techniques don’t require a high talent in Spirit Root, but they do demand a high level of expertise in zither, chess, calligraphy, and painting. I have no knowledge in these areas, so keeping them is of no use to me."

Lin Bai had already treasured and collected all the Jade Scrolls.

He picked one at random and probed it with his spiritual power.

Then, his expression changed repeatedly.

Such exquisite secret techniques were truly worthy of Immortal Emperor’s inheritance!

The crucial point is, Shi Nian actually brought out such secret books so casually.

Lin Bai’s look towards Shi Nian changed: "Are these secret books really for me to dispose of as I wish?"

Shi Nian smiled and said: "Sword Immortal, right now, you find these secret books tremendously valuable. But in the future, when every member of the Human Clan can cultivate them, these books will just be a normal method of cultivation. Zither, chess, calligraphy, painting; only the Human Clan is proficient in these, the Demon Clan and the Demon Clan are completely ignorant in these arts. If these secret books could be popularized, the overall strength of the Human Clan will be enhanced."

In this way.

Once she ascends to the Immortal World, the Human Clan can grow strong on their own.

Lin Bai’s gaze flickered: "Do you trust me this much, letting me handle such a big matter?"

Shi Nian was very honest: "Oh, mainly because I don’t know anyone else."

Lin Bai suddenly felt somewhat hilariously sad, he waved his hand: "Alright, I understand. I’ll arrange everything."

Such secret books cannot be spread all at once.

He would slowly find trusted individuals to first practice, and then gradually promote it.

In the end, when every person of the Human Clan can practice it, the secret techniques of the Immortal Emperor will really become a common choice.

"Okay, then I’m leaving." Shi Nian was also very happy.

Having tossed out the matters, she relaxed.

Shi Nian tossed the hot potato and quickly disappeared.

Lin Bai: "..."

Watching where Shi Nian disappeared, he shook his head helplessly, and then, smiled relaxedly.

This burden of the Human Clan, he had shouldered for far too long.

Now, he suddenly feels completely relaxed.

The rise of the Human Clan can no longer be stopped.

He can finally put his mind at ease.

Shi Nian rushed back to Mei City.

Zi Xu clearly sighed in relief, the two quickly exchanged what they brought back, and Zi Xu continued to engrave the next secret techniques.

Shi Nian stayed alone in the room.

She hesitated for a while, then released the baldy and Xiao Huang.

The two chicks immediately started chirping and gathered around her.

Shi Nian fed them some food, then took out a Storage Bag.

This was given to her by Lu Zhuoyan during her coming-of-age ceremony.

This Storage Bag has a huge storage space, and there should be quite a lot of things inside.

But Shi Nian had not looked into it yet.

Before, she was incredibly looking forward to the coming-of-age ceremony from her junior martial uncle, but now, this gift seemed like an inheritance, making her feel inexplicably depressed.

Shi Nian could only encourage herself.

There are still ten years. She definitely can rescue her junior martial uncle!

Shi Nian sorted out her emotions and probed into it with her consciousness.

Upon looking.

She was somewhat numb.

Her junior martial uncle must have left all his property to her.

Shi Nian took an inventory.

Just the Top-grade Crystal Stones alone amounted to over three hundred thousand.

And there were various rare medicinal materials and extraordinary magic treasures.

This was much richer than an entire Sect!

How many treasuries did her junior martial uncle rob!

Most crucially.

Yet, he’s still hopping and jumping around alive.

Now, Shi Nian finally understood.

The Disciple’s negative Luck Value mostly stemmed from that being in the Upper Realm.

Those who pursued him, probably could not pose any real threat to him.

In those books, if the Disciple were still around...everyone would not have ended up in this situation.

Shi Nian could only sigh lightly.

She tallied up her own belongings.

The Demon Clan kept offering tributes, and during her coming-of-age ceremony, everyone had given a lot, and she had made a fortune by previously selling Demon Transformation Pills to the disciples of the Human Clan through the System Mall.

Focusing solely on the Top-grade Crystal Stones, she now exceeded a grand total of five hundred thousand.

Shi Nian couldn’t help but ask Xiao Tong, "Xiao Tong, I have many unused magical treasures and elixirs. Can these be exchanged for Crystal Stones?"

Xiao Tong scratched his head: "This feature will be unlocked after reaching level one hundred."

"Given our relationship, unlocking it a bit earlier shouldn’t matter!" Shi Nian cajoled: "Today is a perfect 618, and being part of the system, you should learn to manage, making it a perfect time for a 618 Super Shopping Festival. Help me with the exchange, and I’ll spend right here immediately; it’s a win-win."

Xiao Tong’s eyes flickered slightly: "Are you really going to spend?"

Shi Nian slapped her Storage Bag: "Can’t you tell? I have money now! Why wouldn’t I spend it!"

Xiao Tong struggled for a bit then said, "Okay, I’ll unlock it in advance, but only for today. You must ensure that your spending is above five hundred thousand Top-grade Crystal Stones."

"Easy!" Shi Nian assured confidently.

She had planned to spend today anyway; the items in the System Mall were inherently expensive, and five hundred thousand Top-grade Crystal Stones would vanish casually.

"Okay, give me a moment." Xiao Tong disappeared immediately.

Shi Nian patiently waited.

About an hour later.

Xiao Tong returned.

On the system, a recycling button was added.

"Just hold the item in your hand, and think ’Recycle,’ it will do." Xiao Tong said.

Shi Nian curiously picked up an elixir, silently thought the word: Recycle.

The elixir vanished.

In her Storage Bag, there appeared a Middle Grade Spirit Stone.

Shi Nian made some calculations, feeling that this recycling system was fairly reasonable.

She decided not to dwell on it and exchanged her belongings one by one.

Her actions were fierce and swift.

Eventually, her account’s balance instantly reached 730,000 Top-grade Crystal Stones.

Shi Nian couldn’t help but rub her palms together; this time, she really could enjoy a good spending spree.

Before spending, Shi Nian first released the soul body of Reincarnation Immortal Emperor.

Reincarnation Immortal Emperor, tormented in the Soul-binding Bell to the point of preferring death, suddenly being set free, showed a glimmer of excitement in her eyes.

Lord Heaven, let her do anything, just don’t make her go back there!

"Master, do you have any instructions?" Reincarnation Immortal Emperor approached obsequiously.

Shi Nian raised an eyebrow: "I haven’t had the time to ask you before. Now, tell me in detail about the catastrophe in the Immortal World, as well as the origins of this True Demon Bottle."

All the incidents in the Lower Realm seemed vaguely connected to that catastrophe in the Immortal World, Shi Nian felt, it was necessary to understand it beforehand.

And the True Demon Bottle, she was determined to destroy it.

But, how to destroy it?

Perhaps information from Reincarnation Immortal Emperor could shed some light.

Reincarnation Immortal Emperor dared not hide anything.

After pondering for a while, she said, "That catastrophe might relate to the Divine Realm."

"Oh?" Shi Nian inquired further.

Reincarnation Immortal Emperor pondered and then said: "Tens of thousands of years ago, Immortal Emperors and other strong beings in the Immortal World suddenly had the same premonition─ a cosmic catastrophe was coming, and many among them, those Immortal Emperors, might perish. You should know, reaching such a level of cultivation, a sentient connection to one’s own fate generally exists, and this sensation is mostly accurate. Let alone the collective premonition of so many Immortal Emperors. Quickly thereafter, the rumors of impending catastrophe spread throughout the Immortal World. At that time, I had just obtained the True Demon Bottle and decisively chose to escape to the Lower Realm, and was subsequently trapped in the Demon Pool. I do not know what has become of the Immortal World since then."

Shi Nian stroked her chin.

This Reincarnation Immortal Emperor escaped before the catastrophe even started.

It seems difficult to find out about the Immortal World from her.

Shi Nian suddenly thought of someone.

That is Leng Shuqin’s destined pair, Dongfang Zhang.

This individual, also a reincarnation of an Immortal Emperor, and his descent to the Lower Realm should have been a bit later.

Later on, she might obtain some concrete news from him.
