Chapter 232: Spare Me, Daoist
The Purple Lightning Talisman
The old daoist grimly stared at Fang Chen, not daring to make light of the latter anymore. That was the strongest talisman he had ever seen in his life.
He had known about the existence of the Purple Lightning Talisman, and he had seen what it was capable of too. However, most of them were low-grade or mid-grade. High-grade talismans were exceedingly rare, let alone pinnacle ones.
I finally understand why Daoist Fang dares to intrude on my turf, the old daoist said. You had a pinnacle Purple Lightning Talisman to fall back on. I wonder what other means you have now that you have used that talisman. Do you have a second or third talisman to squander?
The old daoist looked at Fang Chen in derision. You killed my four disciples and wreaked havoc in my turf. Youll soon find death to be a wishful dream for you.
He didnt think that Fang Chen could have more Purple Lightning Talismans. He might have a second one, but a third one would be out of question. That would be unthinkable!
Pinnacle Purple Lightning Talisman would have been incredibly exorbitant! Even a hundred low-grade ki stones might not have been enough to purchase one!
Purple Lightning Talismans were consumables that could only be used once, but their prowess far exceeded that of artifacts of the same tier.
Pinnacle Purple Lightning Talismans wielded incredible prowess that could threaten even twelfth stage Ki Refinement cultivators. If it appeared in the market, many parties would surely compete for it, even Foundation Establishment cultivators.
The usefulness of such items could sometimes exceed artifacts.nove(l)bi(n.)com
However, it was so rare to find one that it was hard to put a proper price on it. Sometimes, when it appeared in an auction, its price could even hike up to 200 low-grade ki stones!
What makes you so certain, daoist? Why dont you see what this is? Fang Chen took out another Purple Lightning Talisman.
Where is he pulling these Purple Lightning Talismans from?!
Then, the old daoist saw Fang Chen taking out another one. By this point, he had already begun trembling uncontrollably.
But Fang Chen proceeded to pull out a second one, a third one, and a fourth one. By the time he pulled out a fifth one, the old daoist gulped.
Daoist Fang, we can sit down and talk things out.
Hahaha This laughter wasnt from Fang Chen.
The crowd turned to the corner, where Li Huafeng could be seen crouching in the corner, laughing maniacally at the old daoist.
The old daoists face darkened. What are you laughing at?
Im laughing at your imminent death! You dared mess with Fang Chen despite not knowing his background. Hahaha! Li Huafeng laughed like a madman.
Do you want to know His Majestys whereabouts? Li Huafeng asked with a suppressed voice.
He was referring not to Xia Yuan but Xia Xuanji.
You know where he is? Fang Chen narrowed his eyes. He constructed a spirit ki barrier around them before slowly walking up to Li Huafeng. Outsiders couldnt hear their conversation anymore.
I have a clue, Li Huafeng replied. Escort me back to Great Xia, and gift me that old mans martial arts manuals, and Ill tell you.
You dont want to be a cultivator anymore? Fang Chen asked with a mocking smile.
Li Huafengs face stiffened up. He lowered his head and replied, The world of cultivation is more cruel than I thought. This path isnt suited for me.
Speak. If your clue is useful, Ill accede to your request, Fang Chen said.
Li Huafeng took one good look at Fang Chen before saying, Young master Fang, youre a man of your words. Ill trust you.
He paused for a second before continuing on, Before I joined the Cloudless Monastery, I saw him here from a distance away. Hes acquainted with this old man.
Fang Chen was taken aback by the news.
Xia Xuanji has ties with the Cloudless Monasterys reverend? Xia Xuanji is related to the Blood Spirit Cult too could the Cloudless Monastery be one of the Blood Spirit Cults pawn pieces?
What else? Fang Chen asked.
Li Huafeng shook his head. Thats all.
You have no evidence.
Yes, I only saw His Majesty from a distance away. I have no evidence. Li Huafeng conceded.
Fang Chen was silent for seconds before replying, Ill have someone escort you back to Great Xia.
Li Huafeng was relieved. He knew that he would never find his way back to Great Xia without Fang Chens help. Even leaving this island could be beyond him, as the ships that passed by here only accepted the cultivators ki stones!
Paying respect to the reverend!
All of a sudden, the nearby daoists respectfully bowed to Fang Chen under the lead of the Heaven Profound realm martial artists.
Fang Chen eyed them before saying, I wont become the Cloudless Monasterys reverend.
The daoists panicked. One of the Heaven Profound realm daoists quickly spoke up, Elder, you killed the old reverend. If you dont become the new reverend, it wont be long before someone eyes this island. We might be killed if that happens!
