Chapter 3130: Beast Orb
"One hundred..." Lu Yun took a breath of cold air. This was even harder than climbing to the sky.
Taoist Xuantian continued, "However, this Broken Sky Sword does have another way to improve its quality. Nine Broken Sky Swords can be fused into a Broken Sky Sword of top-grade Immortal Emperor Weapon quality; and nine top-grade Broken Sky Swords can be fused into a Broken Sky Sword of top-grade Immortal Emperor Weapon quality! And so on..."
"So, as long as I gather all nine Duankong Swords, I can upgrade my Tianxing Sword... that is, Duankong Sword, to the quality of a top-grade immortal imperial weapon?" A glimmer of hope ignited in Lu Yun's heart.
"That's the theory." Daoist Master Xuantian nodded, but his tone was somewhat helpless, "However, these Broken Sky Swords are rare to begin with. After a long period of changes, they are scattered in various corners. It is not easy to collect all nine of them!"
Lu Yun pondered for a moment and said, "Master Dao, could you please ask friends in the Dao Palace Alliance to keep an eye out for it? If you can find other Broken Sky Swords, I am willing to buy them at a high price."
"Of course." Taoist Xuantian agreed readily, "I'll tell friends in the Dao Palace Alliance to keep an eye out for it. But don't hold your hopes too high, after all, this thing is too rare."
He paused, then added: "In fact, even if you can't gather all nine swords, don't be discouraged. A few Sky-breaking Swords can form a formation and exert even greater power. Even if only two or three are fused, the power will increase dramatically!"
Hearing this, Lu Yun was overjoyed and immediately bowed his hands to express his gratitude: "Thank you for your guidance, Master!"
“You’re welcome.” Daoist Xuantian waved his hand. “Speaking of which, this Broken Sky Sword is considered a top-notch weapon among the mid-grade Immortal Emperor weapons. You were lucky to have obtained it.”
"Master, I wonder how much this mid-grade immortal imperial weapon is generally worth?" Lu Yun asked tentatively.
Taoist Xuantian pondered for a moment and explained, "At this treasure hunt, in order to help some potential practitioners improve their strength, our Dao Palace Alliance usually lowers the base price of some immortal emperor weapons. But if you actively buy them, the price will be high. For a fine product like the Broken Sky Sword, the starting price is at least 100,000 square meters of divine jade. If you want to attract sellers to buy, it may cost more than 100,000 square meters, or even 200,000 square meters."
Lu Yun was secretly astonished. With two hundred thousand square divine jades, he could buy a Dao Ascension Pill and cultivate a Dao Lord-level strong man. He could even consider purchasing some higher-quality top-grade and ultimate immortal imperial weapons.
"Two hundred thousand cubic meters..." Lu Yun stroked the Duankong Sword in his hand, with a myriad of thoughts in his mind.
He knew that the price was indeed a bit high, but the Tianxing Sword... or the Broken Sky Sword, was of great significance to him. It was not just a weapon, but also a companion that had accompanied him along the way. More importantly, the sword also contained fragments of the Chaos Axe!
"Master, I don't need anything else for now." Lu Yun stroked the Broken Sky Sword and said after thinking for a moment. Although Liu Xuanji and Yu Yini needed to improve their strength, the Immortal Emperor Blood was enough for them to digest for a while, and he also needed time to explore the secret ruins of Xuantian Domain. He might find other treasures to improve his strength. There was no need to spend everything now.
Taoist Xuantian nodded, stroked his beard, and said, "Okay, in that case, let's talk about the details of the transaction. I will first take your deposit of 2 million cubic meters of Chaos Essence Liquid, and after you get the treasure, I will refund you the actual price. What do you think?"
"No problem." Lu Yun agreed readily. Two million cubic meters of Chaos Liquid was just a drop in the bucket for him.
"However, I must remind you that this Sky-Breaking Sword is rare to begin with, and the other swords you need are nowhere to be found. It will probably take quite a while to find them, perhaps a few years or even dozens or hundreds of years."
Taoist Xuantian spoke in a serious tone, fearing that Lu Yun was too optimistic.
"I understand." Lu Yun looked calm. He had been planning to explore the secret ruins in Xuantian Territory. This amount of time was nothing to him. "It's a good opportunity for me to take a look at other places during this time."
"That's very good." Taoist Master Xuantian nodded with satisfaction. This kid is neither arrogant nor impatient. He is a promising talent.
After leaving the Dao Palace Alliance, Lu Yun went straight back to Xiankeju. Liu Xuanji and Yu Yini were practicing in the room, and when they saw him coming back, they hurried over to greet him.
"How is it? Is the deal settled?" Liu Xuanji asked with concern, worry flashing in her beautiful eyes.
"It's done." Lu Yun smiled slightly and informed the two girls of the results of his discussion with Taoist Master Xuantian.
The two women breathed a sigh of relief when they heard that Lu Yun had already dealt with the Immortal Emperor's Blood and planned to use the obtained Chaos Essence Fluid to exchange for treasures that could enhance their strength.
"Great! This way we can improve our strength faster!" Yu Yini said excitedly. She wished she could rush into the chaotic world and practice in seclusion right now.
Lu Yun smiled and nodded, then said, "I plan to use the remaining Chaos Essence Fluid to purchase some more treasures. In addition, this time I also got eighteen black-armored puppets. I plan to leave them on Liuli Star to guard it."
"Eighteen black-armored puppets?" Liu Xuanji was a little surprised. "This is equivalent to the combat power of eighteen Dao masters! Wouldn't it be a waste to keep them all on Liuli Star?"
"No." Lu Yun shook his head and explained, "Liuli Star is my foundation, and I must ensure that it is foolproof. Moreover, this time I am going to the secret ruins of Xuantian Territory, I plan to subdue some powerful beasts, fill the beast beads, and then let Kuntong Divine Venerable take them back to my hometown to protect it."
"So that's how it is." Liu Xuanji suddenly realized that Lu Yun was preparing for a rainy day, eliminating all potential threats and clearing obstacles for future development.
"It's just..." Yu Yini was a little worried, "In this case, won't you have to take risks alone again?"
Lu Yun reached out and ruffled her hair, then said with a smile, "Don't worry, I'm a Taoist master now, and ordinary dangers can't do anything to me."
"Then... when do we set off?" Liu Xuanji asked.
"Not urgent."
Lu Yun pondered for a moment, "There are many secret places and ruins in Xuantian Territory. I plan to start exploring from Qianliu Ruins. I've been there once, so I know the situation inside better. Besides, the remaining opportunities cannot be given to outsiders."
"Qianliu Ruins?" Yu Yini's eyes lit up. "I heard there are many powerful exotic beasts there, which can be used to fill your exotic beast beads!"
"That's right." Lu Yun nodded with a smile, "However, before I set off, I still want to digest the gains I got in the All Saints Realm, and by the way... I also want to compensate you."
As he spoke, he picked up Liu Xuanji and whispered in her ear, "Xuanji, you have worked hard during this period..."
