Chapter 342 - I"ll Give You A Magical Artifact
Qin Chuan replied, "I know that your Corpse Refinement Faction is in a very difficult situation. If I say that I can provide you with a planet suitable for cultivation in this barren area, can you agree to one of my conditions?"
As soon as he finished speaking, Fu Ji"s side seemed to be very shocked and, at the same time, very disbelieving.
"What? Provide us a planet for cultivation? In a barren area at that?"
Fu Ji gestured for everyone to be quiet. Staring at Qin Chuan, he asked, "What condition?"
"I"ll tell you the truth! This planet has already been targeted by some forces.
"They are extremely powerful. They are very well-known. You should have heard of them before. They are called the Beast Taming Corps."
Beast Taming Corps???
Fu Ji"s group"s expressions changed abruptly. Even Fu Ji himself was shocked.
The Beast Taming Corps was renowned, and its strength could contend against the entire cultivation world.
"Elder, this person wants us to deal with the Beast Taming Corps together."
"Even the major sects in the s.p.a.ce field might not be able to deal with a behemoth like the Beast Taming Corps.
"What a joke!"
"That"s right! This person clearly doesn"t know the gap between himself and the Beast Taming Corps."
"Elder, don"t hesitate. Collaborating with him is just asking for trouble."
Fu Ji looked grim as he asked, "Sir Qin Chuan, it"s not that I don"t agree, but we can"t afford to offend the Beast Taming Corps. Even if all of us from the Corpse Refinement Faction were to fight, we would be nothing against them."
Qin Chuan replied, "I know what you guys are worried about. However, if your Corpse Refinement Faction wishes for your teachings to be handed down, you can only cooperate with me."
Before coming here, Qin Chuan had already thought through the matter. The threat posed by the Beast Taming Corps was already too great. If the Corpse Refinement Faction was added into the mix, life would truly be arduous.
His stress would be greatly reduced if he turns the Corpse Refinement Faction into his allies.
If the Corpse Refinement Faction wanted a place to live, he could make use of his system. All he had to do was plant a few [Spirit Trees] on desolate planets, and they would become planets suitable for cultivation.
With such a bargaining chip, Qin Chuan felt that the Corpse Refinement Faction would definitely consider collaborating with him.
"Don"t be in a rush to reject me. Since I dare to challenge the Beast Taming Corps, I naturally have the confidence to do so.
"I"m guessing you"ve called for reinforcements. When your main force arrives, we can sit down and discuss our collaboration."
With that, Qin Chuan left.
After a moment of silence, someone immediately said,
"Elder, this person is full of nonsense. He even dares to challenge the Beast Taming Corps. He is really overconfident.
"If he is an Immortal Emperor, he can still be considered qualified.
"But he"s not!"
Fu Ji said, "If what he said is true and this planet has been targeted by the Beast Taming Corps, then we will undoubtedly be s.n.a.t.c.hing food from the tiger"s mouth."
Everyone was speechless.
Fu Ji went on, "We should wait for the higher-ups to arrive before making a decision! This matter is already beyond our scope of control.
"Also, that person should have reached the Immortal realm."
Immortal realm???
Tss——
Everyone drew in breaths of cold air.
Fu Ji said, "If he wanted to make a move, all of us would be dead by now.
"Since he suggested a collaboration, he probably meant it.
"Given our situation, if he can provide us with a suitable planet for cultivation, I"m sure the higher-ups will consider it."
"But if we collaborate, how will we go against the Beast Taming Corps?"
Fu Ji replied, "Actually, the Beast Taming Corps isn"t as scary as you think. They simply have strength in numbers, but they aren"t strong. They mainly rely on their beast pets.
"Speaking of which, their cultivation methods are very similar to ours. We both do not focus on cultivation.
"I heard from the higher-ups that the Beast Taming Corps had tried to rope us in to join them.
"However, the negotiation was not very smooth, so there was no follow-up."
At the mention of the Beast Taming Corps, everyone in the room was rather fl.u.s.tered.
Seeing this, Fu Ji comforted them. "Don"t feel too pressured. Rest well for the next few days."
…
On the other side.
Qin Chuan was back in the sect.
When the disciples saw their Sect Master return, they immediately came to welcome him.
Everyone cheered, and the entire sect was filled with joy.
Qin Chuan swept his gaze over the disciples. Everyone"s cultivation had increased significantly compared to when he left.
The disciples in the sect were all in the Golden Core realm and above. There were hundreds of thousands of them.
They appeared very strong, but it was still not enough in the universe.
According to Qin Chuan, within the s.p.a.ce field, even the weakest force controlled dozens of planets. Besides the population in each planet, the cultivation maturity in each planet was also a factor.
Thus, there was still a long way to go before he could catch up to them.
"Brother, when did you come back?"
While he was deep in thought, a fiery red figure pounced over.
Zhao Xuanxuan had just finished clearing the [Immortal Demon PaG.o.da] when she saw so many disciples gathered below. At a closer look, she saw that it was her brother, and she was filled with excitement.
Zhao Xuanxuan hugged Qin Chuan tightly, both happy and excited.
Qin Chuan peeled away Zhao Xuanxuan"s arms, "Are you trying to murder your own brother?"
Zhao Xuanxuan giggled. "Brother, when did you come back? Why didn"t you inform me beforehand?"
Qin Chuan replied, "Just today. I only came back after settling some matters."
"Oh!" Zhao Xuanxuan smiled, "Sister-in-law is still challenging the [Immortal Demon PaG.o.da], should I inform her?"
Qin Chuan waved his hand. "Let her finis.h.!.+"
"Brother, I"ve reached Soul Splitting. My cultivation is the highest in the sect, even sister-in-law is still at the peak of Soul Transformation." Zhao Xuanxuan said proudly.
"I know." Qin Chuan nodded his head. He couldn"t help but admit that his little sister was truly hardworking.
"This is a treasure I brought back from the lands of legacy. It"s quite suitable for you." Qin Chuan took out a fiery red jade pendant.
Zhao Xuanxuan"s eyes widened, and she immediately took the jade pendant. She looked at it left and right, feeling especially happy inwardly.
Qin Chuan said, "This is the signature treasure of a certain sect."
"It can increase the might of fire-element spells or divine arts of the wearer by up to five times. At the same time, the wearer can also use the intrinsic divine art of a magical artifact to summon a Fire Snake at the level of Tribulation Transcendence that can last for 15 minutes."
"It"s that powerful?" Zhao Xuanxuan"s eyes sparkled as she hugged Qin Chuan.
"Brother, you"re the best."
Qin Chuan pushed her away and said, "You and Qingxue are my only kin in this world. It"s only right that I treat you well.
"Don"t be too excited. Are you not going to refine the magical artifact? Let it acknowledge its master. Have a go at using it."
"Mm, mm!" Zhao Xuanxuan immediately used the refinement method to have the magical artifact acknowledge her as its owner.
After the jade pendant did so, it transformed into an artifact spirit and appeared beside Zhao Xuanxuan.
The artifact spirit was a cute little girl dressed in fiery red clothes.
"Master, I am the artifact spirit of the Fire Dragon Jade Pendant," the artifact spirit half-knelt and said.
Zhao Xuanxuan helped the artifact spirit up, "You"ll be called Fire from now on."
"Thank you for granting me a name, Master." Fire bowed and said.
"Brother, is there anything else?" Zhao Xuanxuan asked Qin Chuan.
Qin Chuan shook his head. "Not for now."
"Then I"ll bring Fire out for a walk."
"Okay! Remember to come back tonight. I"m going to show off my cooking. The ingredients have already been prepared." Qin Chuan said confidently.
"Err…" Zhao Xuanxuan recalled the dishes that Qin Chuan had cooked in the past. They were hard to describe.
Well, if he wants to do it, I"ll let him be!
"Brother, let me know when you"re done," Zhao Xuanxuan said.
"Sure!"
Just like that, Zhao Xuanxuan held Fire"s hand and left happily.
Meanwhile, Qin Chuan waited for Ma Qingxue to come out.
