Chapter 732: Spiritual Connecting Cardinal Treasure

“Twenty billion...”

Jiang Yi felt a headache. He wouldn’t hesitate if it is only several billion celestial stones. He only got about 45 billion celestial stones from trying his best to kill Gui Ying and his group this time. This single transcending saint artifact even cost twenty billion?!

He wanted to stay in the God Bestowing City which required about 100 billion. It was still questionable whether his thunder stone business would last. He was really reluctant to spend twenty billion celestial stones right away.

However, he was in desperate need of a treasure to enhance his speed. The battle in the Black Wind Mountains made him realize the importance of the speed. It still took a while for his essence force to rise. If his speed was faster, he would get a higher chance of surviving.

He contemplated for a while and asked, “If I reach the Heaven Monarch Realm, how far this Wind Shadow Cloak can increase my speed?’

The maidservant replied, “The stronger you are, the weaker the speed-enhancing effect of the Wind Shadow Cloak is. Of course... even if Young Master reaches the fifth-stage Heaven Monarch Realm, the speed that this cloak was able to increase is still considerable. However, after Young Master gets to the upper-tier Heaven Monarch Realm, this cloak is basically useless.”

Jiang Yi nodded and continued to ask, “Can... the price be lowered?”

The maidservant looked at the mid-tier Heaven Monarch elder guarding this side hall. He was cultivating throughout, with his eyes closed. He didn’t open his eyes now and just replied indifferently, “Fifteen billion, the lowest offer.”

“Alright!”

Jiang Yi gritted his teeth and answered. He could always make more celestial stones. His strength was the foundation. Without the strength, he would be killed; and the celestial stones—no matter how many they were—would belong to others. It was better to spend them.

The Wind Shadow Cloak was black and exquisitely made, with glamorous dragon-shaped patterns. It looked very prestigious and domineering. Nobody had refined this transcending saint artifact before. Jiang Yi only needed to drip a drop of blood for it to recognize him as its owner.

After the recognition ceremony, Jiang Yi felt a trace of spiritual connections with this cloak now. The cloak instantly billowed out when his essence force was injected. Jiang Yi turned into a faint shadow and took a turn around the side hall before nodding in satisfaction. “I’m indeed faster.”

“Ke-Ke!”

After the maidservant received the celestial stones from Jiang Yi, she took out a purple card from her ring and handed it to Jiang Yi. “Young Master, as the transaction you made with the merchant association is over 10 billion, you’ll be treated as a VIP of our merchant association and enjoy an 80% discount for any goods you wish to purchase. You can stay in the castle and take our merchant association’s Heaven Fate Ship for free in the future.”

“Oh? Is there such a good thing?”

Jiang Yi nodded in secret. He didn’t risk staying here any longer. There were so many treasures here, of absurdly high prices even. If he was attracted to something else, he was afraid that he would use all his celestial stones.

Feng Luan and Qing Yu on the outside also bought some small things, but they only cost a few thousand celestial stones. They didn’t dare spend money carelessly, even though Jiang Yi gave each of them several million celestial stones.

After shopping on the second floor for over two hours, Jiang Yi went back with the group happily. After they left the gate outside the castle—as Jiang Yi expected, there was indeed a group of men waiting for them on the city plaza.

When seeing them coming out, Young Master Hong instantly surged with killing aura. He stared at Jiang Yi and said, “Little bastard, come here and kneel three times, then hand over the girl in Dream Ripple dress. I will let this slide. Otherwise, I will keep you forever on the White Tiger Island!”

Besides the pretty young mistress and the previous guards on Young Master’s back, over 20 men came. They were all Heaven Monarchs. There were five more Heaven Monarchs now; obviously, they were his relief troops.

In addition, there was a Young Master in his twenties beside Young Master Hong. He kept his head high, sneered, and said, “How dare you offend Young Master Hong! Little bastard, are you unwilling to live? Do you have any idea that even the leaders of the top ten bandit legions have to be polite to Young Master Hong on the White Tiger Island?”

Jiang Yi swept over these forty over men indifferently. He watched them for a few minutes before spitting out one word. “Morons!”

Swish! Swish! Swish!

Everyone’s faces turned pale again. However, this was the territory of the Red Sun Merchant Association. There were already dozens of Heaven Monarchs coming out of the castle so no one dared attack. Jiang Yi shook his head and left with the group, completely ignoring Young Master Hong and going straight to his castle.

“Fine, fine, fine!”

Young Master Hong and his group all quivered with rage as watching Jiang Yi and the rest going into their castle. Young Master Hong glanced and sneered. “Come, escort Lady Li back. We’ll stay in the castle. This bastard can’t hide in the castle his whole life. Once he dares to leave, we kill him instantly. Hong Yu, find people and look into their background.”

“Hehe!”

The Young Master next to Young Master Hong laughed evilly, came closer, and whispered, “Young Master Hong, if we kill this bastard, how about giving me the girl beside him? You have the other two.”

“Done!”

Young Master Hong nodded and said, “Young Master Li, I’ll give you three orphan girls after this. All your expenses in the castle will be paid by me.”

Young Master Li was glad and laughed. “Let’s go and have some fun first. It is really refreshing to play with Young Master Hong.”

Young Master Hong and Young Master Li took their group and walked in the castle again, leaving five men behind. Two people escorted that beautiful young mistress; the other three left quietly and lay in ambush nearby to monitor Jiang Yi and his group days and nights.

...

“Boss. What is the situation?”

Once Jiang Yi went into the city, he released the Divine Perception sorcery arts to detect the situation outside. Strategically, he condemned the enemy; but tactically, he took them seriously. Even ants could bite an elephant to death, let alone the other side had more than 40 Heaven Monarchs and 8 mid-tier Heaven Monarchs.

Jiang Yi looked cold and said apathetically, “Young Master Hong and the others entered the castle. Three men are watching us.”

Yang Dong asked murderously, “How many men do they have?”

Jiang Yi waved his hand and said, “They have quite a lot of Heaven Monarchs. You just leave them be. I will cultivate first. Let’s discuss it when the Heaven Fate Ship is here. Wanguan, find some information about this Young Master Hong and the other Young Master beside him. If possible, try to make some connections with the management of the Red Sun Merchant Association.”

“As you wish!”

Qian Wanguan was best at such things. He waved his hand and took Yang Dong and Niu Wang out. Jiang Yi brought Jiang Xiaonu, Feng Luan, and Qing Yu to his room, leaving the crowd in envious looks.

After entering the room, Jiang Yi turned on the restrictions and smiled at them. “Don’t worry, these mid-tier Heaven Monarchs are not very strong. Otherwise, they won’t become some dandy’s footmen. The coast is only 10 kilometers away, we can reach it instantly. Once we get on the ship, we’ll be safe. I’m going to refine a treasure first. You guys are my Guardians.”

“Alright!”

Feng Luan nodded. They sat around Jiang Yi. They had three days left and didn’t have anything better to do. Jiang Yi planned to refine the Sky-Turning Cauldron. Even if he couldn’t refine it completely, it was still fine to make as much progress as he could.

Buzz!

He took out the small cauldron and was reminded of the moment when the Sky-Turning Cauldron crashed down, with the power of smashing everything. His heart still palpitated from the lingering fear. Moreover, this small cauldron was damaged, with a missing leg; and yet it was already so mighty. If it was intact, shouldn’t the power be enhanced by several more times?

“Refine!”

He sat cross-legged and began to meditate. The essence force circulated around the Sky-Turning Cauldron. However, in less than two hours, the Sky-Turning Cauldron shone with a dark black light, the mysterious symbols and words on the cauldron radiated. A power aura surged from the cauldron, almost suffocating Jiang Xiaonu and Qing Yu.

Jiang Yi also opened his eyes all of a sudden, murmured in bewilderment. “It’s only two hours, and I have even refined this pseudo-divine artifact?! Furthermore, why is the Sky-Turning Cauldron different from the Fire Cloud Armor? Why do I feel that the Sky-Turning Cauldron has its own soul spirit?”

“With soul spirit?”

When Feng Luan heard Jiang Yi’s mutter, she shuddered and cried out, “Young Master, is this pseudo-divine artifact already connected to a spirit? Oh, dear... the power of the spiritual connecting cardinal treasure is at least several folds higher.”
