Chapter 632 - Apology?!
Translator: Noodletown Translated Editor: Noodletown Translated
The cultivators near Ethereal Summit all looked up.
The Sect Master of Sky Mountain Sect, Duan Ye, stood in the front of the carriage with his hands cupped.
Dozens of white carts followed the white carriage!
The spirit beasts pulling the carriage and carts looked similar to horses and tigers. With flames on their hooves, they were powerful. They were Di Beasts, the spirit beasts that only Sky Mountain Sect had.
Although this kind of spirit beasts didn’t have high intelligence nor great combat abilities, they were very strong and had great endurance, perfect for pulling heavy things.
These large carts shook and creaked under the pulling of the strong Di Beasts. It was obvious that they were full of objects.
The smaller carriage in which Duan Ye stood on landed at the entrance of Ethereal Summit steadily.
The nearby cultivators made way for him.
Despite his Core Formation Realm, Duan Ye could reach the Nascent Soul Realm anytime, so most of the other cultivators regarded him as a Nascent Soul Realm cultivator.
Since the place around the valley entrance wasn’t big, the following carts hovered in the high sky in six rows and six columns after Duan Ye’s carriage landed
With flames gushing out of their mouths and their paws, the Di Beasts panted while the 36 big carts made of white jade hovered in the air. It was a magnificent sight.
“I, Junior Duan Ye, the Sect Master of Sky Mountain Sect, failed in educating my daughter who offended Senior. I’m here to apologize!” Duan Ye walked down from the carriage and said, “We offer 12 10,000-year-old snow lotuses, 300 10,000-year-old Lingzhi Mushroom, 400 mature Eight-Leaves Grass, 300 top-tier flying swords, one black jade elixir furnace… and 100,000 top-tier spirit stone. We hope that you will accept our apology!
While Duan Ye listed the items and their quantities, the cultivators around Ethereal Summit were astonished.
Although Sky Mountain Sect wasn’t the most powerful one on Sixth Heaven, it had the most abundant resources. As a sect with the best brain for management on Sixth Heaven, Sky mountain Sect was not only self-sufficient on spiritual herbs and spirit beasts but traded them for other resources with other sects, especially some sects on Seventh Heaven.
Now hearing the list, the other sects finally knew that it was the real wealthy one among them. Sky Mountain Sect had lots of stuff they had only heard about but had never seen!
Especially the 100,000 top-tier spirit stones… The other sects on Sixth Heaven doubted that they could match this offer.
However, the 100,000 spirit stones were the total production of Sky Mountain Sect’s mines for dozens of years! Sky Mountain Sect must hurt very much from it.
This compensation was several times more than what Lingwu Master had proposed!
In the past couple of days, the sects began to increase their bottom prices silently while Ethereal Summit kept quiet
While Herb King Master didn’t show up, they got more and more anxious, especially Sky Mountain Sect which messed with Ethereal Summit in the first place. It had held secret meetings for days. The core of the recent upheaval on Sixth Heaven pointed to Ethereal Summit. In short, this Herb King Master who was on Fifth Heaven determined the future of Sixth Heaven!
This was why Duan Ye immediately came to Fifth Heaven when he heard that Herb King Master had shown up, hoping to gain the forgiveness.
In the valley, Hao Ren thought for a while and said with his slight nature essence, “Leave the 300 flying swords and the black jade elixir furnace and nothing else!”
His voice was not loud, but Duan Ye heard it clearly with an embarrassed expression.
The words of the disciple represented Herb King Master, but Duan Ye didn’t know if it meant Sky Mountain Sect had been forgiven.
Knowing that Sky Mountain Sect excelled in elixir making, Hao Ren was sure that this black jade elixir furnace was better than the furnace from White Sand Sect. Besides, he thought that the nearby three sects could use the 300 flying swords
After a moment of consideration, he continued, “If you want to ask for forgiveness, you must bring Duan Yao here!”
Duan Ye froze at Hao Ren’s words while the cultivators from the other sects looked at each other.
“Herb King Master wants Duan Yao to apologize in person. Is he trying to get Duan Yao as a cauldron for dual-cultivation? This request is vicious!” the cultivators around the area wondered how Sky Mountain Sect would react and turned their gazes toward Duan Ye.
Duan Ye shared their thoughts. Since Herb King Master almost didn’t accept the things offered by Sky Mountain Sect, he probably wanted Duan Yao who had angered him to apologize in person.
With her excellent talent, Duan Yao could reach the Nascent Soul Realm if she cultivated hard. If she became a dual-cultivation partner of a male cultivator, she would help him increase his cultivation strength greatly.
Duan Ye’s face turned from ashen to red. Seeing the gazes of the nearby cultivators, he gritted his teeth and said, “Since Senior asked, I’ll bring my unruly daughter here!”
Hearing his words, the other cultivators around him were stunned.
Even vicious tigers didn’t eat their cubs, but the Sect Master of Sky Mountain Sect was going to sacrifice his daughter to gain forgiveness of Herb King Master!
Leaving the two big carts that were containing the 300 flying swords and the elixir furnace at the entrance of the valley, Duan Ye left with resentment while stepping on his flying sword.
He was angry at his daughter Duan Yao who constantly caused trouble, and she put Sky Mountain Sect into the danger of destruction this time!
A master from Qingcheng Sect had recovered his realm. If the Nascent Soul Realm masters from other sects did the same while Sky Mountain Sect had no Nascent Soul Realm cultivators, the consequences were obvious!
“Ay! I’ll just act like I don’t have a daughter!” Duan Ye thought as he rushed toward Sixth Heaven at a speed close to Nascent Soul Realm.
Once Sky Mountain Sect survived this disaster, he would drop all businesses and try to reach the Nascent Soul Realm in hundreds of years of seclusion cultivation.
He would be too ashamed to come out until all his peers died!
Meanwhile, Suyang Master had returned to the temporary camp of Qingcheng Sect with a shining face full of pleasure. He summoned the other four masters and the senior disciple Liu Heng to the tent.
After removing the lock on the Nascent Soul Realm with the dharma note that they got at the price of three 10,000-year-old Iron Essence Flowers, Qingcheng Sect, a sect with its own dharma note master, wanted to study it in secret.
It was hard for them to find more top-tier spiritual herbs that Herb King Master of Ethereal Summit had requested. Qingcheng Sect was lucky that they had three Iron Essence Flowers to trade for a dharma note.
If they could copy Herb King Master’s essence-unlocking note, they could remove the locks on the other four masters of Qingcheng Sect. Then, as the only sect with this skill, they could conquer the entire Sixth Heaven!
About a dozen top-tier golden notepapers and five top-tier ink brushes were placed on a long table. The vermillion paint was made from the best material, the bone powder of level 4 demon beasts.
“All of you give it a try!” Suyang master looked at them and said heavily.
The four masters and the senior disciple Liu Heng picked up their ink brushes and began to draw carefully. They had studied and memorized the essence-unlocking note of Herb King Master, and there was no mistake about it.
Before his realm dropped, Luyan Master had been a dharma note master. With a slightly shaking right hand, he drew the essence-unlocking note little by little.
He had spent more than 400 years studying dharma notes and could draw some top-tier dharma notes. Although he was less knowledgeable than the dharma note masters on Seventh Heaven, his skills in dharma note drawing were great.
After one dharma note was finished, Luyan Master had sweat all over his body. Meanwhile, the other three masters and the senior disciple Liu Heng had completed only two-thirds of the dharma note.
Not daring to stop, Luyan Master picked up the ink brush again and began drawing the second dharma note with full nature essence.
Except for some low-leveled dharma notes, most of the dharma notes had a certain percentage of failure, especially when drawing new dharma notes. Even Luyan Master, a dharma note master, wasn’t sure that he could succeed on his first try.
In the blink of an eye, Luyan Master finished dozens of dharma notes while the other three masters and Liu Heng had drawn nearly 100 of them.
Placed on the long table, the dharma notes looked magnificent with their golden glitter. These notepapers were specially made, and each of them cost a top-tier spirit stone. Even the senior disciple Liu Heng hadn’t touched so many top-tier notepapers.
On the surface, each dharma note was perfectly drawn, resembling the dharma note from Herb King Master.
“Have a try,” Suyang master said.
Liu Heng picked up one dharma note and transferred his nature essence into it. The dharma note burned up and shot out a light.
The light struck the forehead of one master, and he stumbled backward, almost bumping into the tent.
The master felt a slight loosening of the essence-locking note in his body. Before he could be happy about it, he felt the power of the essence-locking note increase suddenly and clamping his meridians!
The self-made essence-unlocking note couldn’t break the essence-locking note. Instead, the essence-locking note absorbed the energy from the self-made dharma note!
“Try again!” Suyang Master ordered sternly.
Liu Heng shot out another dharma note, but the result was the same. After shooting about a dozen dharma notes, the master being experimented on almost wept since he had fallen from mid-tier Core Formation Realm to low-tier.
Seeing the failures, Suyang Master finally stopped Liu Heng.
Picking up an ink brush, he drew ten dharma notes with great care. Although he wasn’t an expert on dharma notes, he had recovered his Nascent Soul Realm strength and thus could make more powerful dharma notes.
Top-grade ink brush, top-tier vermillion paint, and top-tier dharma notepaper. The dharma note drawn by Suyang Master looked radiant.
Out of the ten dharma notes, only one was circulating nature essence and can be used.
Bang!
He shot this dharma note toward one of the masters.
This master shook all over, and his nature essence of the Nascent Soul Realm almost erupted.
But very soon, he dropped from top-tier Core Formation Realm to mid-tier!
Qingcheng Sect excelled in dharma notes, but they didn’t know that the dharma note they got prior was a unique one. It had to be created by balanced five-elemental nature essences that were guided by the Life-Death Notes!
The masters looked at each other with ashen faces in the tent.
“Why are you still standing here! Hurry up and find more spiritual herbs!”
The Qingcheng Sect disciples outside the tent heard the roar of Suyang Master that was coming from the inside.
