Chapter 315: Supreme Emperor’s Scripture

“How many divine medicines do you possess?” The imposing figure stared at Su Chen for a long time before slowly speaking.
With those words uttered, Su Chen knew this Great Emperor Realm incarnation of obsessions…had compromised!
After all, although Su Chen was no match for the other party, he had the ability to resist attacks and seize the chance to utilize the divine medicines. If the other destroyed all the spiritual herbs in one blow before Su Chen perished… it would be a tremendous loss for him. If he wanted to wait for another who was willing to trade and had so many spiritual herbs, who knew how long that would take? It was also possible that if missed, such a person might never appear again.
“See for yourself,” Su Chen replied calmly.
Soon after, he waved his hand. Instantly, four more spiritual herbs manifested in the void. The value of each of these four was no less than the Phoenix’s Cry Fruit.
“No! You know these spiritual herbs are far from enough for me!” The tall, stalwart figure gazed upon the spiritual herbs floating before Su Chen and shook his head, saying after a moment of silence. He sounded somewhat disappointed.
These spiritual herbs were indeed extraordinarily rare for ordinary cultivators and could even be considered divine treasures rarely seen in ten thousand years! People might engage in a b.l.o.o.d.y battle for one of these spiritual herbs.
But for a Great Emperor Realm powerhouse like him, they were still inadequate. Because he was an emperor, a master of the Great Emperor Realm! What he needed was no mere divine medicine, but longevity medicine! Only that could help completely cleanse his body!
These spiritual herbs, while somewhat beneficial to him, were not of great use. The reason he agreed to make this deal with Su Chen was twofold.
Firstly, he valued Su Chen himself because Su Chen wielded the Power of Laws. Those who could grasp the Power of Laws in the Quasi-Saint Realm were undoubtedly the pride of each era, with immeasurable potential for the future.
Secondly, he originally thought that Su Chen had a substantial quant.i.ty of divine medicines. However, it turned out to be somewhat disappointing for him.
“Senior, you can rest a.s.sured that today’s trade is just the first time. As long as you are willing to trade, we have a second and third time ahead. The spiritual herbs I brought this first time may not seem like a lot in your eyes, but who knows, in the second time, I might be able to bring the longevity medicine,” Su Chen spoke casually.
Since the other party had made clear those spiritual herbs were of limited use to him, that meant… what he truly needed were longevity medicines even more wondrous than divine medicines!
This was undoubtedly an ideal target to take advantage of. The reason was simple. The other was a Great Emperor Realm incarnation of obsessions!
Moreover, Su Chen had many enemies in the East Barrens. If he could build rapport with the other side… In time, he would no longer have to tread carefully. Furthermore, Su Chen might even be able to trick him into imparting all his cultivation methods.
Even if the other’s ident.i.ty was that of a foreign race from another world, did that matter? Judging by his att.i.tude, he no longer seemed close to the dark creatures.
Long Wu had just slain millions of them! Yet this supreme being was not angered by this. On the contrary, from his eyes, Su Chen could tell he no longer held any affection toward the dark creatures. Perhaps this was something he could make good use of. In the future, so long as the benefits were sufficient, he might even be able to make the other party turn against the dark creatures.
Wasn’t there an old saying that money made the world go round? Su Chen was rich enough to make the dark creatures ma.s.sacre each other! Perhaps…in the future, he could even incite an internal rift! A Great Emperor Realm being as his spy! Just thinking about it was thrilling!
“Good! Then let’s proceed as you say!” The imposing figure was silent for a long while before responding slowly, “I look forward to your future! I hope you will not disappoint me!”
“Haha…” Hearing this, Su Chen chuckled and said, “I also look forward to cooperating with Senior again!”
In his eyes, this great emperor of the dark creatures was similar to a great emperor of a certain world who walked a path of self-sacrifice. They both resorted to any means to prolong their lives. This was because the other party lacked a physical body, unable to contain life force. If he had a physical body, this powerful emperor might have caused a dark upheaval in the East Barrens and even in the Central Plains.
Buzz…
The imposing figure raised his hand slightly. A black divine light flew over from the distance, hovering before Su Chen. When the radiance faded away, a pitch-black bracelet appeared before Su Chen’s eyes. The bracelet was extremely simple and unadorned, bearing a frigid aura, clearly no product of this world.
“What you seek lies within,” the imposing figure stated flatly.
“To trade with Senior is truly satisfying!” Su Chen also raised his hand. In the next moment, the spiritual herbs floating before him instantly appeared before the other party.
The instant these spiritual herbs flew toward that imposing silhouette, his giant hand grabbed them all. Having stowed away the herbs, he gazed at Su Chen for a long while before waving his hand once more. Next, a large golden tome flew over from the distance, landing before Su Chen.
“I never take advantage of others. I’ll take these spiritual herbs from you, but aside from the Black Blood Stones, I’ll also impart a cultivation method. This was left behind by a human emperor from long ago. I’ve no use for it anyway, so take it! Consider it a gift upon our first meeting! Also, little friend, my imperial t.i.tle is Tai Huang. 1 look forward to our next encounter!”
Having said this, the imposing figure dispersed into thin air. The surrounding black fog also vanished as he disappeared. Although the world remained shrouded in darkness, the suffocating pressure was gone.
“There’s actually a pleasant surprise?” Su Chen stared at the golden tome before him for a long time.
Soon after, he reached out and grabbed it. The golden book was inscribed with four prominent characters: “Supreme Emperor’s Scripture!”
Seeing these words, Su Chen was shocked. An Emperor’s Scripture! Could it be a Great Emperor’s scripture? Su Chen swiftly browsed through the scripture’s contents with great excitement. There was not much content in total, merely tens of thousands of words across very few pages. With just a cursory glance, Su Chen memorized all the contents. After memorizing this information, a hint of astonishment appeared in his eyes. At the same time, something strange lurked deep within them.
“This Supreme Emperor’s Scripture…seems a little off!”
Judging by the name alone, this was undoubtedly an imperial-level cultivation method. But in Su Chen’s eyes…this cultivation method was comparable to the legendary immortal-level ones! Even several immortal-level cultivation methods combined could not rival the Supreme Emperor’s Scripture in his hands!
What made the Emperor’s Scriptures so fearsome was that they were created by Great Emperor Realm masters. Later generations could slowly cultivate through the scripture, and it served as a direct path to the Great Emperor Realm. However, whether one could become a Great Emperor Realm powerhouse depended on their apt.i.tude and qualifications.
Yet the Supreme Emperor’s Scripture was different. Even the seasoned and knowledgeable Su Chen could not help but feel somewhat shocked, his heart trembling faintly..
