Chapter 1365: Chapter 1365: Doing Business
In an instant, the entire battle situation between Jing Yan and Gou Qu underwent a stunning change.
Just before Gou Qu was sent flying, Jing Yan’s sudden burst of combat power caught everyone off guard.
Is this the combat power of a newcomer? Is this the Nine Tripods Main God who hasn’t comprehended the Heavenly Venerate Dharma Body in the Land of Descent?
The atmosphere was eerily silent!
No one spoke, their emotions were extremely complex.
Especially the martial artists from the Fifth Divine Realm; their hearts felt twisted into a mess, each face ashen like pig liver.
...
"No!"
"I haven’t lost! I haven’t lost! Jing Yan, let’s continue to fight!" Gou Qu couldn’t accept the fact that he had been defeated by Jing Yan, holding his black longsword, he still wanted to battle Jing Yan.
Jing Yan frowned.
"Enough!"
At this moment, a hoarse voice reverberated, causing a tremble in the space.
Xuan Ye’s aged figure stepped into the field, his eyes first glanced at Jing Yan, then stared at the red-eyed Gou Qu.
Gou Qu’s forward-leaning body froze in place.
Xuan Ye’s prestige was too high; in front of Xuan Ye, Gou Qu dared not act rashly.
"This battle is already over. Gou Qu, you have been defeated, that’s a fact. If it were a fight to the death, you would already be dead!" Xuan Ye said in a deep voice.
Gou Qu seemed to calm down a bit, though his expression was still fierce, the redness in his eyes began to fade.
He gritted his teeth and said, "Senior Xuan Ye, I don’t understand how I was defeated. Jing Yan, what on earth did he do? His previous displayed strength clearly wasn’t that formidable!"
Gou Qu was puzzled, filled with confusion.
In fact, not just him, many present couldn’t understand how Gou Qu suddenly lost.
"Hm!" Xuan Ye snorted lightly, and said, "Fellow Jing Yan’s strength is indeed above yours. Fellow Jing Yan’s exertion of the Nihility Domain is already at the Ultimate Level, surpassing the constraints and limitations of Basic Laws; not to mention your Second Realm’s Weak Water Domain can’t defend against it, even with mastering the Third Realm Weak Water Domain, you couldn’t withstand the Ultimate Nihility Domain!"
"Ultimate Nihility?"
"What? Jing Yan actually mastered the Ultimate Domain? How is that possible, he’s still so young!"
"This... Is too ridiculous, isn’t it?"
Many martial artists in the distance exclaimed in shock.
Ultimate Domain!
These martial artists who entered the Land of Descent for thousands of years, and comprehended the Heavenly Venerate Dharma Body, none had mastered the Ultimate Domain. Yet Jing Yan mastered the Ultimate Domain?
"Besides the Ultimate Nihility Domain, Jing Yan seems to have mastered the Third Realm Special Domain Gravity Domain. Under the Gravity Domain, divine power and controlled laws are severely affected."
"Also, Jing Yan is likely a Divine Pill Master; I sensed a Source Power fluctuation in his attack."
"As for the Death Domain, you should all have seen it clearly; the longsword in Jing Yan’s hand isn’t a common Acquired Spiritual Treasure!" Xuan Ye’s somewhat cloudy eyes glanced at the Colorful Cloud Sword in Jing Yan’s hand.
Gou Qu said nothing more; he had nothing to say. Though unwilling, he had to admit he’s not Jing Yan’s opponent. Even if he fought another round, the result would be the same.
"That’s why I say, if it was a fight to the death, Gou Qu, you would already be dead. Fellow Jing Yan was merciful, only knocking you away. If he wanted your life, you’d be a corpse right now." Xuan Ye continued.
"I hold no grudge against Daoist Gou Qu, so I wouldn’t casually take his life." Jing Yan pursed his lips, put away the Colorful Cloud Sword, and shook his head.
"Fellow Jing Yan, this first Heavenly Venerate Mountain surely cannot stop your footsteps anymore. Perhaps it won’t be long before we bid you farewell." Xuan Ye slightly shook his head, spoke with some emotional tone.
Jing Yan smiled but said nothing.
"Here are ten Acquired Spiritual Treasures and five bottles of Green Bamboo Wine, I now hand them over to you." Xuan Ye took out the stakes previously given to him for temporary safekeeping and handed them to Jing Yan.
Jing Yan casually accepted them, storing them into the Qiankun Small World. However, he specifically left behind a bottle of Green Bamboo Wine.
"Senior Xuan Ye, I am giving you this bottle of Green Bamboo Wine." Jing Yan held the bottle with both hands and presented it to Xuan Ye.
"Haha..." Xuan Ye’s cloudy eyes glittered instantly.
"Perhaps in the God Realm, Green Bamboo Wine is nothing special. But here, Green Bamboo Wine is truly a good thing. Fellow Jing Yan, I won’t be polite." Xuan Ye didn’t fuss and directly accepted the Green Bamboo Wine.
If it were other resources, Xuan Ye might not accept. But Green Bamboo Wine, even he couldn’t refuse.
"Fellow Daoist Jing Yan, impressive!"
"At first, we thought Fellow Daoist Jing Yan had just entered the Land of Descent, and his strength might not be great. But now it seems, we were wrong. Fortunately, we didn’t challenge Fellow Daoist Jing Yan, or else... Haha..."
"Fellow Daoist Jing Yan is so young yet possesses such terrifying strength. Once he comprehends the Heavenly Venerate Dharma Body, he will surely pass the first Heavenly Venerate Mountain with ease!"
At this point, several martial artists from the God Realm stepped forward, congratulating Jing Yan. Their words now held much warmth and respect.
"Fellow Daoists!" Jing Yan clasped his hands towards everyone.
"I still have quite a bit of Green Bamboo Wine here. If any fellow Daoists need, I do have a suggestion!" Jing Yan’s eyes gleamed.
"Oh?"
"What suggestion?"
"Fellow Daoist Jing Yan, don’t keep us in suspense, tell us quickly!" Everyone sensed Jing Yan’s implication, seemingly they could obtain Green Bamboo Wine from him.
"Like this, if you want Green Bamboo Wine, you can trade other resources with me. Acquired Spiritual Treasures, rare ores, Divine Grass, and so on, all are acceptable. The exchange ratio will be one Acquired Spiritual Treasure for one bottle of Green Bamboo Wine." Jing Yan smiled as he spoke.
Here, Green Bamboo Wine is an extremely scarce consumable; one bottle can trade for an Acquired Spiritual Treasure. Missing such a good deal would be a regret.
Jing Yan does not wish to remain forever in the Land of Descent; he will do everything to leave here. Thus, using Green Bamboo Wine to exchange for various precious resources is indeed a good trade.
After hearing Jing Yan’s words, the martial artists from the God Realm fell silent.
After a moment, someone chuckled and said, "I may never be able to leave the Land of Descent in this life. What’s the use of those Acquired Spiritual Treasures? Fellow Daoist Jing Yan, I am willing to trade with you. Hmm, I’ll trade two Acquired Spiritual Treasures for two bottles of Green Bamboo Wine first!"
A Nine Tripods Main God from the Second Divine Domain directly took out one attack and one defense Acquired Spiritual Treasure and handed them to Jing Yan, wanting to exchange for two bottles of Green Bamboo Wine.
