C948 Stone Gambling
After hearing Sun Wuji's words, Ling Jian's body trembled as if he had thought of something.
"Alright, I understand. Elder Sun, you can leave first."
Ling Jian said. He did not choose to say anything and gave the order to leave.
"Could it be that you really know the Holy Maiden?"
Sun Wuji asked in confusion.
If Ling Jian really knew the saintess, then in the future, Ling Jian's position in the Great Void Red would be far beyond his.
"Wait until the Saint comes out of seclusion. When the time comes, everything will be clear."
Ling Jian smiled faintly and did not say anything else.
Sun Wuji was even more confused. However, after seeing Ling Jian's confident look, he knew that he might really have to consider it. He immediately nodded his head and could only helplessly turn around and leave.
Very soon, seeing that Sun Wuji had already left, Ling Yun hurriedly looked at Ling Jian and asked excitedly, "Master, could it be that the Saint Lady you are talking about is Miss Yue from the previous world?"
"I only have this kind of speculation. I'm not sure."
Ling Jian said.
At this moment, even with Ling Jian's current calm heart, he couldn't help but become excited.
Back then, when he was forced into the void, he had separated from Yue Laimei. If this saintess was really Yue Laimei, then to Ling Jian, it was definitely a joyous event.
There were no sixty-year-cycles in the mountain, cultivation continued to pass by with the passage of time.
Unknowingly, another half a month had passed.
As time passed in the Great Void Palace, the commotion that had occurred during the Great Sect Meeting also gradually calmed down.
Although many disciples would still mention this matter from time to time, this frequency was not as high as before.
However, even so, Ling Jian, Ling Yun and Tantai You's reputation in the Great Void Red had indeed increased day by day.
Even though their cultivation level was not very high, their performance in the Sect Gathering had already made many disciples in the Taixu Palace acknowledge their strength.
In particular, Ling Jian's words of defeating Yang Haixuan with a spear condensed from flames back then were still clearly imprinted in many people's minds even though it had already been more than half a month.
The next day, early in the morning.
Ling Jian was cultivating in his own residence. At this moment, she was sitting cross-legged on a hassock. At this moment, the gold coins in her eyes were slightly raised, and a faint white fog was lingering around her. This was a sign that her spiritual energy had reached a certain level of density.
During this half a month, he had been like this every day. Although it looked monotonous and boring, this half a month's time was nothing to him when it came to cultivation.
"Ling Jian"
At this time, suddenly, a voice entered Ling Jian's ears.
After hearing this voice, Ling Jian immediately woke up from his cultivation state. Then, not long after, he saw a beautiful figure appear before his eyes.
This beautiful figure was naturally no other person. It was Tantai You.
"Tantai You."
A smile appeared on Ling Jian's face as he stood up from his seated position.
At the same time, they had been apart for so long during this half month. After seeing Ling Jian, Tantai You could not help but miss him. He suddenly pounced towards Ling Jian and was immediately hugged by Ling Jian.
Ever since he was taken away by Wei Zi Chan after entering the Sect Conference half a month ago, this was the first time he had seen Ling Jian. Naturally, he missed him very much.
"Ling Jian, did you miss me during the past half month?"
Tantai You, who was lying in Ling Jian's arms, could not help but ask.
"Of course I did." Ling Jian smiled as well.
"What do you think of me?
Tantai You looked at Ling Jian again and asked.
"You really want to know?"
Ling Jian stared at Tantai You and smiled.
"Of course... Hmm..."
Tantai You was just about to say 'of course', but it was at this moment that she suddenly felt that her mouth was firmly blocked by Ling Jian's mouth.
Not only that, after Ling Jian sealed his mouth, he also started to become dishonest...
Very quickly, under the passionate gazes of the two...
He omitted ten thousand words...
It was only at noon that Ling Jian and Tantai You walked out of that sweet atmosphere.
At this moment, Tantai You's face was still a little red. In particular, he felt a wave of powerlessness all over his body.
In fact, not only was Ling Jian extremely powerful in terms of spiritual energy, he was also quite powerful even when it came to such matters. Even without spiritual energy as a foundation, he was still quite powerful.
If Tantai You wasn't a cultivator, he would have doubted if he could withstand Ling Jian's attack.
"Ling Jian, after entering the Great Void City, let's keep a low profile."
After leaving, Tantai You thought about it and said to Ling Jian.
"Why did you say that?"
Ling Jian raised his eyebrows slightly and a look of doubt appeared on his face.
"This time, we defeated Yang Haixuan and the other two in the Great Sect Assembly. Furthermore, Yang Haixuan and Tang Jie were both heavily injured. After entering the Great Void City... If our identities are discovered, there might be some unexpected things that might happen. "
Tantai You looked at Ling Jian and said. There was a trace of worry on her pretty face.
Whether it was Ling Jian or Tantai You, both of them had the foundation of the Taixu Palace. However, they had just become disciples of the Taixu Palace, so there was no foundation for them in the Taixu Palace.
Yang Haixuan and the other two were from the three great clans of the Taixu City. They were the top three forces in the entire Taixu City. Even though the three great clans had discovered the identities of Ling Jian and the others... However, even if the three families discovered the identities of Ling Jian and the others, they probably wouldn't do anything to Ling Jian.
However, it was not entirely impossible for something higher to happen. Perhaps, their wandering mood in the Great Void City would be directly destroyed.
"Alright, I will naturally pay attention to that."
Ling Jian took the lead to reply. After that, he directly left the residence of the core disciples and walked towards the Great Void City below.
The two of them walked all the way, and before they left the Great Void Palace... Some of the disciples of the Great Void Palace saw their faces. They were astounded too. It was obvious that they had recognized the two immediately.
However, neither Ling Jian nor Tantai You took it to heart.
The two of them quickly passed through the ordinary disciples of the Taixu Palace and continued to move forward. Soon, they arrived at the periphery of the Taixu Mountain Range. The outline of the Great Void City gradually appeared in front of them.
As the well-deserved number one city in the entire East Taitian, the cultivators of the Great Void City were also the cultivators with the highest cultivation base in the entire East Taitian. Even the area they occupied was rather spacious.
Previously, the area that Ling Jian occupied in Tongxuan City was already considered quite vast. However, in comparison, this so-called Great Void City in front of him looked even more vast and enormous.
Moreover, because the Great Void City was located below the entire Great Void Palace, therefore, there were also many auctions in the entire Great Void City. Apart from providing some foundation cultivation resources for the Great Void Palace, shops, markets, etc. It was also to pave the way for the prosperity of the Taixu City.
At this moment, Ling Jian and Tantai You were slowly walking on the streets of the Great Void City.
This was because they had only joined the Great Void Palace for a short period of time. Therefore, even though they had already recruited Tang Jie... The news of Liu Yan and Yang Haixuan's defeat had already spread throughout the entire Taixu City. However, for most of the cultivators in the Great Void City... They didn't know the two of them yet.
Even if they were walking on the streets, none of the cultivators would notice them.
Considering the size of the Cosmos City, if they were to keep moving at a normal pace, even after a year and a half, they would not be able to travel through the entire Cosmos City. However, this was nothing to cultivators.
For cultivators, even walking normally would be much faster than walking normally.
Ling Jian and Tantai You shuttled back and forth in the Great Void City. After about an hour, they appeared in front of a magnificent building.
This building looked extremely magnificent. Its outline was like a pagoda. The area it occupied was not small either, with cultivators entering and leaving from time to time. Some of the cultivators wore joyful expressions, while some of them wore dejected expressions. Some of the cultivators even looked like they had lost their souls, as if they had suffered a great injury.
"What is this place again?"
Ling Jian looked at the huge building in front of him and looked at Tantai You, who was standing beside him. He could not help but laugh as he asked.
In the past half month that he had entered the Taixu Palace, he had been in seclusion. This was the first time he had walked out of the Taixu City.
"This place is a huge stone gambling den."
Tantai You said with a smug smile on his face.
Although she had been cultivating with Wei Zi Chan in the past half month, she had gained some understanding of the fun places in the Taixu City through her interactions with other disciples.
She had found out about this stone gambling arena from the other disciples of the formation faction.
In the entire Taixu City, it was similar to this stone gambling arena. There were also quite a number of such stone gambling arenas. They were all occupied by some cultivation factions. However, there was only a huge gambling ground in front of them, which was filled with rogue cultivators. It did not belong to any faction at all.
The stone gambling market was the largest area in the entire Great Void City. Furthermore, the number of cultivators inside was extremely huge.
At the same time, due to the size of the venue, the place was extremely spacious. In fact, there were some things that would attract the interest of those from the older generation who had reached the Saint realm.
Tantai You was not very interested in the stone gambling arena. However, since he and Ling Jian were here to play, he would not miss out on such a place.
Moreover, if he could obtain some extremely precious treasures from the stone gambling event, he would be even more excited. After all, these things were usually things that spirit stones could not buy.
"Ling Jian, it is said that as long as you have a good eye, you will be able to obtain it. If your luck is a little more heaven-defying, you will be able to obtain some extremely precious treasures through gambling on stones. It's not necessarily true that you can open a treasure of your own. Therefore... This time, it's all up to you."
Tantai You said with a smile.
"Don't worry. I have some experience with gambling."
Ling Jian smiled and said. Although he had never gambled on stones in the martial arts world, it did not mean that he did not know about it.
He had seen so many things. Later on, he had gained quite a bit of experience in gambling on stones.
Secondly, this time, he could come over personally to give it a try.
"Come on, let's go in."
Tantai You became more confident after seeing the smile on Ling Jian's face.
Although she had only come here to relax, however... If she could really obtain some extremely precious things because of the second stone gambling event, it would definitely give her even more surprises.
Soon, the two of them directly walked into the stone gambling arena.
The moment they entered the stone gambling arena, Tantai You was violently shocked by the incomparably lively scene in front of her.
As the eldest daughter of the Tantai Family, she naturally did not lack knowledge in Tongxuan City. When she entered the massive gambling den, she suddenly understood what had happened and returned. Compared to the prosperity of Tongxuan City, the Great Void City was the undisputed number one city.
Between them. In this enormous stone gambling arena, the surroundings were filled with the silhouettes of cultivators. These cultivators' cultivation had already reached the Heavenly Source Realm, even the lowest. They were all at the Heavenly Source Intermediate Stage, and even among them, there were cultivators at the Heavenly Source Intermediate Stage. There were even cultivators in the Heavenly Execution Realm.
Apart from these cultivators, there were also the stones that occupied a lot of space. Looking at them, these stones directly formed a stone square. Looking at it, it was so dense that one couldn't see the end of it.
"As expected of the number one stone gambling place in the Great Void City."
Tantai You could not help but sigh in his heart.
Such a huge stone plaza, most of the places were actually occupied by stone.
In the Taixu Palace, the foundations of the formation factions... They had already told him that there were often precious things that would be opened up here. At the beginning... Tantai You naturally would not believe such a thing. However... After seeing such a large stone plaza... Even if the probability of such a thing appearing was very low, opening some extremely precious treasures... There would definitely not be a chance.
Secondly, while Tantai You was shocked by the massive stone plaza in front of him, Ling Jian's gaze also swept across the massive stone plaza in front of him.
He was different from Tantai You, who was a rookie who knew nothing about stone. In terms of gambling stones, he could be said to be an absolute veteran.
Although the massive stone plaza in front of him seemed to be quite large, there were also quite a number of stones in the plaza. However... After a casual glance, he discovered that... Among these stones, the vast majority of them were basically useless. He couldn't find anything.
Even if there was something that could be found, the quality would be greatly reduced. It would be extremely difficult to find something extremely precious.
It was like trying to fish a needle in an incomparably huge ocean. The chances were extremely slim.
"It's out. There is a treasure in this stone."
"This... What a powerful aura!"
"That's right, it actually opened up a long spear!"
"This aura, it should at least be at the level of a Sage, right?"
...
At this moment, a hubbub suddenly came from a corner of the stone gambling square.
Ling Jian and Tantai You both turned their heads to look. Then, they saw many cultivators gathering together. In the middle of the area, a powerful aura was faintly emitted.
Many cultivators in the surroundings heard the commotion and gathered towards that direction, wanting to see what was going on.
"Ling Jian, let's go and take a look too."
Tantai You urged Ling Jian to hurry over. Then, he pulled Ling Jian over to the crowd.
The two of them moved forward and soon, they arrived in the crowd. Then, they saw a huge stone that was as tall as a person. It was placed in the middle of the crowd. Ying, who was a late-stage Heavenly Source Realm cultivator, was holding an extremely sharp saber in his hand. It was continuously reducing the area of the stone.
Secondly, during this process, a pitch-black spear slowly extended from within.
That powerful aura was shockingly revealed from this long spear that had already reached the saint grade.
"This spear is actually a Saint grade spirit treasure!"
Tantai You also revealed a shocked expression.
A Saint grade spirit treasure corresponded to a Saint realm cultivator.
If any cultivator could obtain a Soul Treasure that matched their cultivation... If they could obtain a Soul Treasure that was even stronger than their own cultivation level... It was undoubtedly like adding wings to a tiger, and it was utterly not a problem for them to jump ranks and challenge others.
For example, when he was in Jagged Heavens, it was like the Divine Incarcerate Sect Master's cultivation base was only at the Heavenly Execution Realm. However, because of the 18 Divine Incarcerate Spears, which were at the Saint level, even some existences whose cultivation levels surpassed his. It was extremely difficult to kill him.
However, for most cultivators, it was a very fortunate thing for them to have a Heavenly Dao Treasure. Not to mention a Saint grade Treasure, even if it was a cultivator who had just broken through to the Saint realm... They might not even have such a powerful Treasure.
In fact, not to mention a Saint grade spirit treasure, even some quasi-Saint grade spirit treasures were not something that cultivators of the Saint realm could possess just because they wanted to.
After all, sage-level spirit treasures were simply too valuable. If one did not have a great background and opportunity, then a Saint grade cultivator... It was also very normal for a Saint grade Soul Treasure to not exist.
"It seems like this person's luck isn't ordinary. He can even open a Saint level spirit treasure like this."
Tantai You looked at the Heavenly Source Late Stage cultivator and said in surprise. It was unknown whether this cultivator was surprised or sad.
To any cultivator, Saint grade spirit treasures usually meant huge wealth.
"It is indeed a saint grade spirit treasure. However, because this spirit treasure isn't complete, even though it has a saint grade spirit treasure, it can only be considered a half-step saint grade spirit treasure."
However, at this moment, Ling Jian's voice also fell.
"Incomplete? What does that mean?"
Tantai You was slightly taken aback when he heard that. He could not help but look at Ling Jian.
"You can continue watching."
Ling Jian smiled but did not say anything.
At this time, under the gazes of many people, the stone that was as tall as a human head was almost opened. At the same time, the outline of the spear was directly reflected in everyone's eyes.
Second, this cultivator whose cultivation was only at the late-stage Heavenly Source Realm had a completely excited expression at this moment. In the end, when the black spear was truly separated from the stone, his entire body began to tremble.
After all, a spirit treasure of this level could be said to be priceless. If this kind of thing was exchanged for spirit stones, it would definitely be able to provide him with a wealth that could allow him to cultivate all the way to the peak of the Heavenly Dao Stage.
"Eh, that's not right. The aura on this spear seems to be weakening!"
"It's weakening. It's indeed weakening!"
"That's not right. Isn't this a Saint grade Numinous Treasure? What's going on?"
"Could it be that there's something fishy going on? Or could it be that this isn't a saint grade spirit treasure to begin with?"
"Sigh, I thought I would be able to find a saint grade spirit treasure, but I didn't expect it to not be!"
"That's not right. If it wasn't a saint grade spirit treasure, then why did this spear display such a powerful aura? Could it be that this is fake?"
...
At this moment, as the tyrannical aura on the spear gradually dissipated, the numerous human figures that had gathered over all looked over in shock and bewilderment.
Under such circumstances, the aura that was emitted from the spear also gradually weakened as time passed.
In particular, the weakening of this powerful aura did not stop. Instead, it continued to decline.
"What is going on?"2
Tantai You looked at the scene in front of her in astonishment. She too had not expected such a thing to happen.
Finally, she looked at Ling Jian. Previously, Ling Jian had said that it was a Half-Step Saint grade Numinous Treasure. Now, as his aura weakened... However, she felt that even if it was a Half-Step Saint Soul Treasure... It was as if she had overestimated this spear.
"Ling Jian, you should be very clear about this, right?"
Tantai You could only look at Ling Jian and ask.
"Didn't I say earlier that this isn't a complete Saint grade spirit treasure?"
Ling Jian shrugged his shoulders and said, "This spirit treasure suffered a huge injury in the past. However, because it was always sealed within the stone, that powerful aura didn't really dissipate. Secondly, after the spear reappeared, that powerful aura naturally could not be preserved any longer. "
" If that's the case, this Saint Grade Soul Treasure is no longer able to reach its peak state due to its incomplete state? "
Tantai You suddenly came to a realization. Seeing Ling Jian nod his head, she cast a pitying look at the cultivator who had reached the Heavenly Source Late Stage.
Although a damaged spirit treasure could still display some of its power, if it was used for a long period of time, this spirit treasure would definitely become a useless item after being used many times.
...
To Ling Jian and Tantai You, the matter of the long spear was merely a small interlude.
The two of them continued to stroll around the stone plaza. However, after walking for a long time, Ling Jian shook his head. Because, during this process, he did not find a stone that satisfied her.
Indeed, under his gaze, he was indeed able to see some things within the stone. However, although these things were not bad, they were only relative to ordinary cultivators. Secondly, with his current gaze, it was impossible for him to enter the eyes of others.
Therefore, even after seeing through it, he did not intend to continue buying. Instead, he continued to stroll around the stone plaza with Tantai You.
Soon, the two of them gradually arrived at the depths of the stone plaza. They couldn't remember the places outside. After they arrived at the depths of the stone plaza, the number of cultivators there had undoubtedly become extremely small.
At the same time, due to the decrease in the number of cultivators, it was possible to sense the powerful aura emitted by these cultivators. They could sense that the strength of these cultivators had basically reached the Half-Step Saint Realm. There were even some who had reached the true Saint Realm.
"Ling Jian, how is it?"
Tantai You suddenly asked. Along the way, Ling Jian had never intended to buy stones.
As she saw more and more stones, she was also a little tired. She was no longer as excited as when she first saw stones.
