Sect Master’s Immortal Journey

Chapter 656: Transaction



Chapter 656: Transaction

"For so long, Sect Master Meng may not know the name of this humble woman."

"I am surnamed Xu, given name Mengying."

In the Cultivation World, except for a few pseudo-Daoist sects, cultivators are not bound by many conventions. There is no strict rule against the disclosure of personal names or relationships between men and women.

Xu Mengying maintained a humble posture in front of Meng Zhang, appearing like a delicate woman.

The more she acted this way, the more vigilant Meng Zhang became.

"Coming to your doorstep without warning is indeed a bit impolite. However, Sect Master Meng, as the leader of a sect, doesn't need to be so guarded."

"Sect Master Meng should know that I have no ill intentions. We are still friends, facing common enemies."

Seeing that Meng Zhang wasn't buying into the delicate female act, Xu Mengying dropped the pretense and became more straightforward.

"Miss Xu, we don't have a deep connection. The past agreements are just that—things of the past."

"Do you think, given your current situation, that you have any value to Taiyi Sect?"

Straight to the point, Meng Zhang had no intention of beating around the bush.

"Since Miss Xu has noticed the tail behind her, she should be well aware of the troubles she carries. Coming here at this time, it's suspicious."

"The current Taiyi Sect, the current me, have no interest in the internal affairs of your Yellow Lotus Sect. Your conflicts and infighting have nothing to do with Taiyi Sect, nor with me."

Meng Zhang's attitude was clear—he didn't want to get involved in Xu Mengying's troubles.

Xu Mengying chuckled lightly. Even through a veil, Meng Zhang could feel her astonishing charm, like blooming flowers, enchanting and beautiful.

Of course, Meng Zhang didn't think she would be foolish enough to use seduction or enchantment techniques on him. He was not so shallow as to be swayed by such tactics.

After a charming smile, Xu Mengying's tone turned firm.

"Sect Master Meng, I understand your desire to avoid trouble. But do you know, there are some troubles you can't escape just by wanting to?"

"Yue Feng is busy unifying the Yellow Lotus Sect, integrating all its forces. Indeed, he may not currently bother Taiyi Sect."

"But with his vengeful heart, he will never forget Taiyi Sect as an enemy."

"If he truly unifies the Yellow Lotus Sect, gaining even more formidable power, Taiyi Sect will face an unprecedented powerful adversary."

Facing Xu Mengying's seemingly earnest persuasion, Meng Zhang lazily replied.

"We'll talk about future matters in the future. I only focus on the present. Besides, no one can predict what will happen in the future."

Seeing that Meng Zhang was unmoved by her words, Xu Mengying finally brought out the substantial offer.

"Sect Master Meng has already cultivated to the Gold Corelate stage, right? With your aptitude, reaching the Primordial Spirit stage is a matter of time. Soon, this humble woman will have to address you as True Monarch Meng."

"Too kind, too kind, Miss. I don't deserve such praise. My cultivation base is still far from the Primordial Spirit stage," Meng Zhang casually responded.

"With Sect Master Meng's current cultivation base, I wonder if you need the Nine Heavens Refined Essence?" Xu Mengying asked seemingly casually.

Meng Zhang raised an eyebrow; this woman seemed to have a keen sense of others' urgent needs.

Meng Zhang needed to absorb and refine a sufficient amount of Nine Heavens Refined Essence to perfect his cultivation at the Gold Corelate stage and lay a solid foundation for advancing to the Primordial Spirit stage.

In the Cultivation World, efficient methods of extracting Nine Heavens Refined Essence are closely guarded secrets of major sects. Without the guidance of the Extreme Sword Spirit General, Meng Zhang would still be in the dark.

Storing Nine Heavens Refined Essence for a short period is not difficult, but long-term storage poses many challenges. Gold Corelate cultivators need a substantial amount, and the essence is difficult to preserve and transport.

Even with a significant expenditure of spirit stones, it is challenging to purchase Nine Heavens Refined Essence. If some are occasionally available, they are quickly snatched up.

Taiyi Sect, with its current influence, has established a trade network covering almost the entire Jiuqu League. Many years ago, Meng Zhang ordered Taiyi Sect branches to collect information and channels for selling Nine Heavens Refined Essence.

However, despite Taiyi Sect's efforts, they have been unable to purchase any Nine Heavens Refined Essence.

Meng Zhang considered that obtaining a large amount of Nine Heavens Refined Essence might require the intervention of a Primordial Spirit True Monarch. Yet, convincing one to act was no easy task, and even with significant costs, there was no guarantee of success.

Moreover, many Primordial Spirit True Monarchs were not inclined to see unrelated cultivators gain opportunities to advance to the Primordial Spirit stage.

Despite Taiyi Sect's close ties with Jin Li True Monarch, after initially helping Meng Zhang, Jin Li True Monarch was unwilling to provide further assistance.

Nine Heavens Refined Essence was not only useful for Gold Corelate cultivators but also for Primordial Spirit True Monarchs. Even with Meng Zhang's connections, Jin Li True Monarch was reluctant to trade a large quantity of Nine Heavens Refined Essence.

Now that Xu Mengying had mentioned Nine Heavens Refined Essence, it likely meant she could acquire a considerable amount. Meng Zhang indeed needed it, but he refrained from speaking first to avoid appearing too eager.

Xu Mengying, sensing Meng Zhang's interest, continued speaking without waiting for his response.

"My Yellow Lotus Sect, a Primordial Spirit powerhouse with a heritage of over a thousand years, almost produces a Primordial Spirit True Monarch in every generation. Sometimes, we even have more than one."

"These senior True Monarchs can effortlessly contribute and help accumulate a substantial amount of Nine Heavens Refined Essence for the sect. With Yellow Lotus Sect's profound foundation, we have ample means to store Nine Heavens Refined Essence for an extended period."

"In fact, the Nine Heavens Refined Essence currently stored by my Yellow Lotus Sect is sufficient for the use of two or three Gold Corelate cultivators, with plenty to spare."

At this point, Meng Zhang understood that Xu Mengying intended to trade Nine Heavens Refined Essence with him.

"Enough talk. Tell me what I need to do for you to provide the Nine Heavens Refined Essence."

"I must emphasize, if it involves extreme danger and requires me to risk my life, I must respectfully decline."
