Reigning Supreme in countless worlds With Beast taming -
Chapter 691 - 685 Exchange of Treasures Jade Bone Great Method
Hades, as the ruler of the Netherworld, was second only to God King Zeus in status.
Moreover, as the lord commanding the Netherworld, both his strength and position were far superior to that of ordinary top-level divine beings, even slightly higher than the twelve main gods of Mount Olympus, aside from Zeus.
Therefore, he couldn't stand the arrogance of the Titan Giants, acting as if they were still the mighty Divine Clan of old when they were clearly past their prime.
Had it not been for the fact that this fellow usually stayed within his own territory and rarely caused trouble, coupled with the current resistance against the invaders from the Biluo Great World, Hades would have liked nothing more than to give this towering figure a proper lesson.
However, in that moment, Hades took a deep breath, reminded of the plan he and the other twelve main gods had conceived to deal with these invaders from beyond their realm, and ultimately chose to swallow his pride and not lash out!
After all, they would still need this fellow's strength when the time came; minor impatience could spoil grand plans, so there was no point in ruining the larger scheme over such a trifling matter!
Besides, his true body was still confronting the Nine Nether City Lord on another battlefield and hadn't arrived here, so with just this avatar, there was no way he could give the Titan Giant what he deserved!
In the distance, Qin Feng and Li Miaozhen stood behind the White Bone City Lord. They could hear the thunderous voice of the Titan Giant, but they could no longer hear Hades's conversation with the One-Eyed Giants and the Centaur Clan's warriors.
The great powers had just been fighting, capable of reaching their opponents with a mere wave of their hands, or snatching them from afar through vast spaces with a grasp, but in reality, the distance between them was quite substantial; when the White Bone City Lord had repelled the One-Eyed Giants earlier, they were thousands of miles apart, even farther from the Titan Giant.
Qin Feng and Li Miaozhen had only recently stepped on the path of the Immortal Dao and were far from reaching the Immortal Realm, so naturally, they couldn't hear the conversation from afar.
Even though they had reached a realm where their Divine Sense was exponentially stronger than before and could stretch out for thousands of miles,
unless they had lost their minds, they would never be so audacious as to eavesdrop on cosmic-level beings conversing using their Heavenly Immortal Realm cultivation.
With just a discontented thought from the opposite side, a mere glance could follow their Divine Sense and invade the Sea of Consciousness within them, harming the very origin of their souls!
Not being able to hear Hades's words, they only saw that later, Hades glanced in their direction a few times before swiftly leaving the battlefield with a few other top-level warriors.
With their departure, the armies on both sides that had already ceased fighting began to slowly retreat, ultimately opting for a temporary ceasefire.
Although this was a cross-realm war, the great powers wouldn't battle every day.
Especially the powerhouses of their own realm, who preferred to wear down the invading legions of Biluo cultivators with their sizable army numbers, waiting to gain the upper hand before striking down the Golden Immortal great powers once and for all. Hence, the gigantic armies below the Immortal God Realm would fight daily, with countless deaths and injuries each day.
Immortals and divine beings clashed minorly every three days and majorly every five days, resulting in substantial losses on both sides!
"Daoist Fellow!"
In the distance, two powerful beings saw that the top-level divine beings of the other side had all retreated, and so they floated closer, saluting the White Bone City Lord.
Although both were Golden Immortal great powers, the White Bone City Lord was different from them; not only was he a disciple of Ghost Ancestor Cang Yang and one of the governors of the ten Ghost Cities, his Dao Cultivation was also exceedingly profound. Like Jue Tian Ancestor of Beast Taming Sect, he had cultivated to the peak of Golden Immortal and was just half a step away from achieving eternity.
Such an existence was no longer seen as an ordinary Golden Immortal.
The old man and the beautiful woman were not only inferior in Dao Cultivation to the White Bone City Lord, but their Sects were also situated in the Northern Domain, under the control of the ten Ghost Cities, and thus they maintained the due respect towards him.
"Daoist Fellows are too kind!"
White Bone City Lord returned the salute, "Thanks to both of you for guarding this battlefield. With two against three, you've held off three top-level divine beings, and you've both done admirably!"
"Hehe, White Bone Daoist Fellow, you are too courteous, we're part of the expedition and naturally we exert our best efforts!" the old man said cheerfully.
"Both of you Daoist Fellows please continue to stand against those top-level divine beings for a bit longer. Once the Daoist Fellows left behind by the various factions arrive, we can launch a massive assault and no longer face the situation as it is now!"
White Bone City Lord briefly conversed with them before steering away from the topic.
Although their Dao Cultivation didn't warrant concern about eavesdropping, this was not the place to discuss such confidential matters, especially with two young people nearby who shouldn't know too much.
"Let's go, we'll talk more after we return!"
White Bone City Lord called to the two great powers and turned to leave with Qin Feng and the others.
Inside a large palace-like Space Magical Treasure, White Bone City Lord and the others took their seats.
"You two, instead of cultivating in the Southern Domain, how did you end up here?" the beautiful woman asked Qin Feng and Li Miaozhen, voicing her puzzlement.
"This..." The two exchanged a glance, and Qin Feng replied with a wry smile, "It's a long story. Initially, while journeying in the Southern Domain, I was chasing a Demon Cultivator when I was whisked away to Beiming Sea Domain by a Three Realms Teleportation Divine Talisman.
Later, I encountered some fortunate opportunities, and after being maliciously pursued by numerous cultivators, Sister and I met and we joined the expedition forces to avoid their chase!"
"Fortune from the Beiming Sea Domain?"
The beautiful woman was somewhat surprised upon hearing this, "You lad, don't tell me you got your hands on the Beiming Immortal Mansion?"
"Predecessor has a discerning eye!"
Facing such a Golden Immortal great power, Qin Feng didn't conceal anything and openly admitted it.
"Indeed, worthy of being the Master of Qi Luck!"
The beautiful woman nodded in admiration, "Some Daoist Fellows once aspired to take the Beiming Immortal Mansion but found no way to start. Unexpectedly, it ended up in the hands of an interloper who accidentally arrived at Beiming Sea. Truly someone who is deeply favored by fortune!"
In the midst of her speech, as she scrutinised Qin Feng and Li Miaozhen, and noting their well-concentrated and stable auras, stronger even than many true Immortals, she couldn't help but feel satisfied.
Particularly Li Miaozhen, not only being a woman but also possessing extraordinary beauty and temperament, she found her even more likable and approvingly said, "You not only acquired profound opportunities in Biluo but also managed to sneak into God King's lair after entering this realm. You stole the Golden Apples from his Divine Palace, and even succeeded in escaping back here safely, that's truly..."
At this point, as if something occurred to her, her expression revealed an ambiguous sentiment, and she shook her head without continuing.
The White Bone City Lord smiled and took up the conversation, "I am aware of these two youngsters coming to this realm. Initially, the Beast Taming Sect's Daoist Fellow Gui Ling made a special trip to the Northern Domain and found me to request that I take care of them on his behalf.
At first, I thought these two fellows were only at the Dharma Image and Primordial Spirit Realm of cultivation. On this perilous battlefield, how much trouble could they possibly stir up? So, I let them act on their own.
To my surprise, without paying attention, they actually slipped quietly behind enemy lines.
At the time, I was fighting against the Sun God Apollo above the nine heavens. He was extremely powerful, and I could not afford to be distracted, so I didn't look after them. By the time the battle was over and I tried to find them, it was already too late!"
He couldn't help but feel a bit helpless as he said this, "Later, I sent one of my Heavenly Immortals to secretly protect you, but those two always did things beyond expectations.
By the time my subordinate found you following the mark I left on you, you had already gone to Mount Olympus!"
With a wry smile, he shook his head, "After all, that is the main stronghold of all gods. Even if most of the divine spirits have already come to the battlefield, it is still fraught with danger, and with the powerful Heavenly Empress Hera stationed there, even I wouldn't dare to intrude rashly.
My subordinate waited outside the mountain for more than half a year. Seeing that you never came down, he returned to report to me. Unexpectedly, you came out so quickly and caused such a commotion!"
The White Bone City Lord was genuinely feeling helpless as he spoke.
Initially, when the Gui Ling Ancestor asked him for a favor on the Otherworld Battlefield, to ensure that the two of them wouldn't encounter any accidents, things had turned out quite differently. Except for today, when he felt the mark he left on the two rapidly approaching this place from afar and he came quickly to respond, he hadn't been able to intervene at all. What kind of care was this?
When the time came for the Gui Ling Ancestor to give him the promised benefits, he wasn't even sure if he should accept them!
"My apologies for the trouble, senior!"
Qin Feng bowed and said, "We never intended to cause such a commotion. It was a combination of chance circumstances. When there was an opportunity to sneak into the divine mountain, we thought to take advantage of it to obtain some benefits. We certainly did not expect to have the chance to seize the Golden Apples and so we gave it a try!"
"Haha… Excellent attempt!"
The White Bone City Lord laughed, "The apple tree on Mount Olympus is the number one Spirit Root in this Divine Realm. It may not bear fruit even in tens of thousands of years. For you to have obtained it is a sign in itself, and a hint of a tipping point in the war. Over time, things will only become more and more favorable for us in the war!
Hmm, perhaps… we should send some people to the rear to cause trouble and take advantage upon the opportunity. This could not only affect the mood of the gods on the front lines but also shift the world's qi fortune!"
Qin Feng and the others were astounded by his words.
Indeed, the Lord City Lord was an Ancient Great Power. He extended the implications of their seizure of the Golden Apples into so many matters, devising strategies beneficial to the war situation with ease!
Later, a few Great Powers also inquired about Qin Feng and Li Miaozhen's experiences on Mount Olympus.
They were curious about their adventure into the divine mountain and speculated whether these great powers would also have a chance to sneak in.
If it were possible, they could make the gods' backyard bloom!
At that time, they could send a few Great Powers to blow up Mount Olympus and destroy the divine homeland of the gods.
Once they lost their long-standing base, the gods would certainly be in turmoil, and if a decisive battle was launched at that opportunity, the effects could be even better.
However, these were only their conjectures, whether they could be implemented was another matter. After all, Heavenly Empress Hera was not a simple character. With the chaos of the Golden Apples being stolen, she would definitely put up strict defenses on the divine mountain, not allowing intrusion easily again.
"The Golden Apple is the fruit of your two adventurers' risk-taking, and as a senior, I certainly won't snatch your opportunity!"
The White Bone City Lord glanced at the two of them and after a moment's thought, he said, "However, I have a disciple whose cultivation has reached the peak of the Profound Immortal. He practices the White Bone Sword Dao. If he could use the Gold Element Principle within the Golden Apple, perhaps he could take his sword dao a step further and break through the shackles to become a Golden Immortal!
Therefore, today I am thickening my face to exchange a treasure with you, hoping you two won't take offense!"
As he spoke, he took out a lustrous and jade-like bone from his sleeve.
This section of bone was thoroughly translucent, devoid of any dark and terrifying presence; instead, it exuded an endless sense of beauty.
Powerful Principle Charms emanated from it, but they were sealed by a formidable force, preventing any leakage!
"This is a Jade Bone left by a great power of the Netherworld during the Ancient Great Tribulation. It possesses not only the Power of Laws but also a top-level legacy 'Jade Bone Great Method' from the Netherworld, which was also one of the Techniques I once cultivated!"
The White Bone City Lord raised his hand, and the crystal-clear jade bone floated in front of Qin Feng and Li Miao Zhen, allowing them to feel its strength up close. He continued, "I see that the two of you harmonize well with each other, displaying the Yin Yang Twin Dragons. It seems you've already embarked on Dual Cultivation, which makes it convenient for both of you to refine this treasure.
Both of you have practiced Body Refining Techniques, and this 'Jade Bone Great Method' could be integrated into your original Body Refining Techniques as a secret technique to assist your cultivation. With the energy and Power of Laws within the jade bone, the hardness of the bones in your bodies could be raised several notches. Solely in terms of bones, you could directly match the Body Refining Cultivators of the Profound Immortal Realm!
By then, ordinary Heavenly Immortals wouldn't be able to break your bones, significantly increasing your ability to save your lives. What do you say, do you want to make the exchange?"
"..."
The two exchanged glances and were immediately tempted.
They had already refined several Golden Apples, gaining benefits that were already within their grasp. Refining more would simply bolster their accumulation and aid in advancing to higher realms in the future, but it would not allow them to climb through the ranks consecutively to achieve the Heavenly Immortal or, let alone, the Profound Immortal status in the short term.
However, this Jade Bone in front of them could give them certain characteristics of the Profound Immortal in a short time, which would be very beneficial for their future cultivation!
They did not doubt that the White Bone City Lord would deceive them, for at his realm, he was above deceiving small fry like them.
Moreover, this Jade Bone could only be somewhat useful to cultivators below and of the Profound Immortal Realm. The White Bone City Lord had already reached the peak of Golden Immortal, and was only half a step away from the Eternal Realm. It was quite normal for him to exchange some useless treasures for resources beneficial to his disciple.
Besides, his disciple's advancement to Golden Immortal would bring him great benefits. There was no way he would deceive anyone in such matters!
Having thought this through, they looked at each other and slightly nodded.
Qin Feng smiled and said, "It is just a Golden Apple, if the senior needs it, the junior will naturally give it!"
With those words, he took out the last Golden Apple he had and lifted it with a surge of Immortal Energy towards the White Bone City Lord!
"Mm!"
The White Bone City Lord was clearly satisfied with his attitude, smiled and nodded, and reached out to take the Golden Apple. His eyes shone with Divine Light as he scrutinized it closely, his expression shifting slightly.
He then sighed lightly and waved his hand, tossing two lustrous finger bones that floated in front of the two of them: "The Golden Apple is even more beneficial than I anticipated. I won't take advantage of you, these two finger bones contain Daoist Skills I've left behind, keep them with you, they could save your lives at a critical moment!"
