Chapter 274 Choice
"Excuse me, if I choose the second option, can I take the cultivation technique with me?" Cheng Jiu thought for a moment and asked reluctantly.
After all, this immortal venerable is obviously very powerful. Even if he is ridiculed by other immortal venerables, the cultivation techniques he created must be extraordinary. Even if we can't cultivate them, it's good to broaden our horizons.
"Oh?" The voice held a hint of doubt, but finally delivered a resolute refusal: "No way!"
Cheng Jiu was slightly disappointed: "Then I'll choose the first one!"
"Huh? Huh?" The voice sounded somewhat disoriented: "Aren't you going to reconsider?"
Cheng Jiu answered decisively: "I'm not considering it!"
"Are you really not going to consider it? You need to understand that the first reward I give you is definitely not as good as the second one."
That's the first cultivation technique I've ever created in my entire life, and it contains endless wonders!
"No!" Cheng Jiu shook his head: "This disciple doesn't feel I really need it!"
Her cultivation journey has already been very smooth, and there is no need for any further setbacks.
The voice seemed to sigh: "Alright! I respect your choice!"
The voice carried a hint of complaint: "You said the cultivation technique I created isn't low-grade, so why isn't anyone choosing it?"
Cheng Jiu touched his face: "Are most of the trial participants chosen by the Immortal Venerable from prominent families, geniuses who have had smooth sailing in life?"
“Yes!” Chi Yang agreed. Only these meticulously nurtured geniuses could meet his standards!
"For disciples like me, the road ahead is basically already laid out smoothly! Very few of them would rebel and pursue the unknown!"
Cheng Jiu explained that from her perspective, that's how she thought; who knows if that cultivation method has any irreversible side effects.
She believed that with her talent she could go further and achieve greater things, so this cultivation technique created by the Immortal Venerable held little appeal for her.
Cheng Jiu believed that the previous generations would have thought the same way. They were born in a great world and had access to better resources than Cheng Jiu, so naturally they wouldn't choose this technique, even if they knew that choosing it would allow them to be accepted as a disciple by a Celestial Venerable.
Immortal Venerable Blazing Sun suddenly realized that he was judging others by his own standards.
He came from an ordinary background. If he had such a cultivation manual when he was in the most difficult time of his cultivation, he would have regarded it as his only lifeline, whether it was honey or poison.
But once he accumulated certain resources, he was rarely as reckless as he was in his childhood, and his choices of resources became conditional.
The path to immortality is fraught with danger and cannot tolerate recklessness. If he were as reckless as he was in his childhood, he would not have been able to cultivate to this level.
Leaving aside other resources, like the one in his hand, he wouldn't choose it.
But! He chuckled lightly. In this world, besides caution, there is also fate. If there is fate, one will naturally gain his favor.
That's right, he still wasn't going to give up on finding a master for the cultivation technique he possessed. "You're right, it's time for me to change the trial method! I'll grant you one more thing: after you've chosen, I'll send you back!"
"Thank you for your generosity, Immortal Venerable!" Cheng Jiu never expected that by saying one more word, he could choose another treasure.
The collection of the Blazing Sun Immortal Venerable! Judging from his appearance, he is not a stingy person.
"Immortal Venerable, I'll take any ice-type rare and precious materials; I'm not picky!"
Cheng Jiu had already made up her mind to give this opportunity to her master. She had already obtained enough opportunities in the previous five worlds.
Even if she chooses what she needs here, she won't be able to digest it in a short time. It's better to give it to her master. Who can say that her master isn't a kind of opportunity for her?
"You have a wood elemental root, don't you!"
"This disciple intends to present this to Master."
"That old codger Cang Jiyue doesn't have an ice spirit root either." Then he realized, his tone incredulous: "Someone as arrogant as him would be willing to share a disciple with someone else?"
"I first became a disciple of my master, and then I became a disciple of my second master!" Cheng Jiu explained.
"Haha! It seems you really have some extraordinary qualities!" Immortal Venerable Blazing Sun silently increased the resources he would give Cheng Jiu.
"When I was traveling the world, I obtained a Ninefold Mystic Ice Treasure."
As he spoke, a blue stone exuding boundless coldness fell to the ground.
Just getting close to Cheng Jiu made her turn pale and stiff from the cold; even her magic robes couldn't keep her warm.
The Blazing Sun Immortal Venerable also saw it, almost forgetting that this little guy's cultivation level was low and he couldn't withstand the power of the Ninefold Profound Cold Ice Treasure at all.
A purple flame tinged with orange landed on the ice treasure. The ice melted upon contact with the fire. By the time it reached Cheng Jiu's hand, the chill had dissipated. The stone looked cold and hard, but it felt soft to the touch.
It has a magical feel to it; although it's stone, it feels almost alive.
Feeling the slight pulsation in her palm, Cheng Jiu's eyes narrowed and widened. Her feeling was correct; the stone was alive.
"It's alive!"
"What's so strange about that!" Immortal Lord Blazing Sun said calmly, "High-grade resources are only produced when they are blessed by heaven and earth, so naturally they all have life!"
They lack intelligence; this is known as biomorphic organisms.
You possess a strange fire within you, isn't that a living entity?
Cheng Jiu was silent for a moment, feeling like his mind was in turmoil. How could these be the same? This piece of ore looked like a non-living thing! It couldn't compare to the little green flame at all! The little green flame looked like it had a lot of life!
Cheng Jiu did not answer, and the Blazing Sun Immortal Venerable did not care. Instead, he continued to bestow the next two secret treasures.
"This is a seed of the source of the ice law of a small world. Speaking of which, you are lucky, little girl. I only have one like this here."
I remember when we were scrambling for these seeds, I arrived too late and only managed to get this one. Not wanting to leave empty-handed, I accepted it.
The source seed of the law of ice—I've only ever heard that small worlds can generate three thousand rules, but not every world can leave behind these three thousand rules. Cheng Jiu's world, in theory, is similar to other small worlds.
But when the world was created, the laws that were left behind transformed into divine beasts. Later, after such a great war, all the divine beasts chose to give back to the Heavenly Dao, which is why three thousand laws were left behind. It is a rare small world with relatively complete rules.
Cheng Jiu didn't want to know what the Blazing Sun Immortal Venerable meant by "fighting." Even the source seed of the Ice Law had been plundered, so he figured there must be something shady going on.
Is this the world of these top-tier experts? Cheng Jiu felt a chill in his heart, and inexplicably sensed its cruelty!
The Blazing Sun Immortal Venerable had no idea what Cheng Jiu was thinking, but even if he did, he wouldn't care. The difference in strength between the two was too great, so there was no need to care. Cheng Jiu's thoughts had no effect on him whatsoever.
He bestowed upon her only one treasure: a garment spun by a spider that had been devouring magic for billions of years.
The Devouring Spiders are a notorious race throughout the three thousand worlds. They live in the void and from birth, they constantly absorb and spit out laws, weaving spider webs.
These laws are what they plunder from the world. Once these spiders have drained the laws, that world will collapse. Then they will move to a different territory to continue plundering and spinning until the last moment of their lives.
There was once a vast world that was targeted by these spiders, but the original inhabitants of that world did not notice them.
Until these spiders completely plunder and dilute the laws of their great world.
As the world crumbled, these native inhabitants were reduced to interstellar wanderers, with nowhere to go but to roam the three thousand worlds.
Driven by a desire for revenge, some native inhabitants formed the Law-Slaying Alliance, which roams the universe to hunt down these spiders and avenge their world.
The spider webs left behind by the spiders are the most precious parts left over from the feeding of these magic-eating spiders.
It can help one attain enlightenment and is extremely popular throughout the three thousand worlds.
The web bestowed by the Blazing Sun Immortal Venerable was made from the web spun by a Shadow-Eating Spider that specifically absorbs the laws of ice.
It can be called a supreme treasure of ice-type spiritual roots. Even if Immortal Lord Qingxu ascends to the upper realm, he will still be able to use this treasure.
