Chapter 130 - 130 Congratulations, You Have Received the Favor of the Heavens!
130 Congratulations, You Have Received the Favor of the Heavens!
“How much is this shroud?”
“100,000 high-grade spiritual stones!”
Li Heishui pondered for a while before raising his head and saying.
What?! 100,000 high-grade spiritual stones?
Hearing this price, the onlookers all revealed shocked expressions. All of them looked at Li Heishui in disbelief.
They simply couldn’t understand how an ordinary burlap could be worth 100,000 high-grade spiritual stones.
Yet, Lin Wudao agreed with this price.
“100,000 high-grade spiritual stones is indeed worth it!”
As he spoke, he took out ten supreme-grade spiritual stones and handed them to Li Heishui.
“Oh my G.o.d, supreme-grade spiritual stones?”
There was a commotion in the crowd.
At this moment, the way they looked at Lin Wudao had undergone a huge change. Those who could take out supreme-grade spiritual stones were all existences with extremely prominent status.
“This person seems to have an even greater background than Li Chenzhou…”
“Ha, is there a need to say that? Who can have top-grade spiritual stones?”
“No wonder he can take no heed of Heishui Ancient City’s Li family. He must have a great background. Even if he did kill Li Chenzhou with a single sword strike just now, the Li family probably would not dare to make a sound either.”
“Who exactly is this young master?”
…
Everyone was trying to guess Lin Wudao’s ident.i.ty and background.
Lin Wudao simply ignored them.
At this moment, he looked at Li Heishui with a very gentle gaze as if he was looking at a huge treasure!
“In the future, if you encounter such treasures or powerhouse corpses, I will take it.”
“Alright!” Li Heishui nodded lightly.
Naturally, he could tell that Lin Wudao was not an ordinary person.
Whether it was the supreme-grade spiritual stones or the fact that Li Zangtian had killed a peak-stage Innate Sky realm cultivator with a single strike, all of these were enough to prove that Lin Wudao had a n.o.ble ident.i.ty and background.
At the very least, he did not think much of the Li family at all!
“The Path to Heaven is about to descend. The water in Heishui Ancient City is getting deeper and deeper…” Li Heishui sighed as he watched Lin Wudao leave.
Then, he looked at the supreme-grade spiritual stone in his hand again, and his eyes were filled with excitement.
“With these ten supreme-grade spiritual stones, Qingcheng’s cultivation should be able to reach a higher level. At that time, she’ll be one step closer to breaking through to the Innate Sky realm. If only I could knock open the Heavenly Gate on the Path to Heaven and obtain a great fortune bestowed by the heavens…”
Li Heishui’s eyes were filled with longing.
Ever since his parents and fiancée pa.s.sed away, he had placed all his hopes on his sister, Li Qingcheng.
The greatest wish in his life was to nurture Li Qingcheng into a powerhouse.
At that time, they would take revenge for their dead parents!
However, walking the Path to Heaven was harder than ascending to the heavens!
With his apt.i.tude and strength, there was not much hope for him to knock open the Heavenly Gate and obtain a great fortune bestowed by the heavens.
“I hope that the heavens will favor me and allow at least Qingcheng to knock open a Heavenly Gate…” Li Heishui prayed in his heart.
Boom!
It was also at this moment that a huge rumble suddenly sounded in his mind. It was as if a supreme will had descended on his soul.
[Congratulations, you have received the favor of the heavens!]
[In Jiuzhou, a heavens’ emissary has just been born. As long as you sacrifice the corpse of a powerhouse above the Grotto-heaven realm, you will be able to obtain his help.]
[The heavens’ emissary is named Dongfang Bubai.]
[With the corpse of a powerhouse as a sacrifice, you can invite him to descend into the mortal world and help you knock open the Heavenly Gate on the Path to Heaven to obtain great fortune.]
[You can also invite him to help you take revenge!]
[As long as you present the corpse of a powerhouse and pray devoutly, you will receive a response …]
…
A series of majestic voices shook Li Heishui’s soul.
Heavens’ emissary, Dongfang Bubai?
Facing the sudden and mysterious voice, even Li Heishui, who was calm and steady, felt endless horror.
His cold gaze quickly swept across the surroundings, but he did not find anything.
He even suspected that he was hallucinating!
[Do you wish to invite Dongfang Bubai?]
Suddenly, the mysterious voice from before sounded again.
This time, Li Heishui heard it clearly. There was indeed an unknown mysterious existence talking to him.
This caused his heart to tremble!
At the same time, a bold thought surfaced from the bottom of his heart.
“Can Dongfang Bubai help me with any request?”
[Not necessarily! You only need to prepare the corpse of a powerhouse as a sacrifice. At the same time, say what you need help with. If Dongfang Bubai accepts your invitation, he will come and help you fulfill your wish.]
[The stronger the corpse sacrificed, the higher the success rate of inviting Dongfang Bubai!]
[Seven days ago, Dongfang Bubai helped the Dari Demonic Sect to successfully survive the Great Tribulation of High Heavens in Nightmare Mode. You can rest a.s.sured that he is strong enough.]
…
The Great Tribulation of High Heavens? Nightmare mode?
Hearing this, Li Heishui could not help but be shocked!
He did have some understanding of the Great Tribulation of High Heavens. The Great Tribulation in Nightmare Mode was simply a declaration of death. It was extremely difficult to survive it safely.
Yet, Dongfang Bubai had helped the Dari Demonic Sect survive the tribulation. It was obvious how powerful he was.
With this precedent, Li Heishui could not help but be convinced.
“All these years, I’ve been fishing for corpses in the Heishui River. I didn’t get many opportunities or fortunes, but I’ve acc.u.mulated quite a lot of corpses. If I can invite Dongfang Bubai to do something for me by using a corpse as a sacrifice, that’s naturally best. Let’s try. What if it’s true?” He pondered.
Immediately, he returned to his residence and dug out an ancient corpse that had been buried for a long time in the backyard.
Although it had been eroded by time, after being washed by the Heishui River, the corpse still retained its appearance when it was still alive. There were no signs of decay.
Furthermore, the corpse he dug out was even more powerful than the one he had just found in the Heishui River.
It was the corpse of a Heavenly Cycle realm cultivator!
“How should I sacrifice the corpse?”
[Please wait a moment. Dongfang Bubai is being invited for you …]
The mysterious voice sounded in his mind.
Hearing this, Li Heishui did not get anxious. He immediately waited patiently.
…
Myth Inn, the largest inn in Heishui Ancient City.
This place provided all kinds of services.
It was said to belong to a force in the Green Heaven Region that wasn’t weaker than the Green Heaven Chamber of Commerce.
The meaning behind its name was that anyone who stayed in the Myth Inn would reach the Myth realm.
After parting ways with Li Heishui, Lin Wudao stayed in the Myth Inn under Yin Siming’s lead.
Qingshan Courtyard.
Lin Wudao had just sat down when he received a notification from the system.
[Ding dong!]
[You have received an invitation from Li Heishui. Please look into it in time.]
Hmm? Li Heishui?
Lin Wudao was stunned when he heard this name.
“Is it the Li Heishui from just now, or is it just the same name?”
Under his doubts, he immediately opened the Book of All Beings.
In an instant, the specific information regarding the invitation was reflected in his eyes.
[Invitation: Li Heishui]
[Wish: Unknown]
[Reward: A Heavenly Cycle realm powerhouse’s corpse.]
Buzz!
A mysterious light appeared, and Li Heishui’s appearance instantly appeared on the Book of All Beings.
“It really is him!”
Lin Wudao was surprised.
Then, the corners of his mouth curled into a mysterious smile.
“Interesting! You’ve been fishing for corpses in the Heishui River for so long, so your stock of corpses must be quite spectacular. Since that’s the case, I’ll have to extort you properly…”
As he spoke, he agreed to Li Heishui’s invitation.
“What do you want me to do for you?”
…
Hmm? Did he really successfully invite the heavens’ emissary?
Hearing the mysterious voice in his mind, Li Heishui’s spirit was greatly roused.
Whoosh!
After a moment of silence, his eyes revealed an extremely strong light of hope.
“I would like to ask Emissary Dongfang to help me make a trip to the Path to Heaven and knock open the fifth Heavenly Gate to obtain the Sky-mending Divine Water that is the final heavens reward. Is that possible?”
Taking a deep breath, Li Heishui said the craziest thought in his heart.
