#1865 - Calculate the agency fee!
As dawn approached, Ji Dongfeng exited his exclusive space.
“All the living beings in the First Heaven have integrated the seed, and their overall strength has increased by nearly a fold. However, we still need to carefully observe the next steps,” Ji Dongfeng said in a deep voice.
Within the exclusive space, in the area of the First Heaven, all living beings except mortals dispersed and found quiet places to cultivate diligently, striving to fully control the Power of the East Wind as soon as possible.
Liu Yiren and Mu Lingfeng, along with other cultivators, gathered the mortals in Ten Thousand Dynasty City to observe the situation within their bodies.
“At least… we can guide them in body refinement,” Mu Lingfeng said.
“That’s right. Their physical qualities are not too weak, so we can try to teach them some body refinement methods. If it works, we can have cultivators from body refinement sects teach them,” Liu Yiren said.
“Our First Heaven… no, I don’t think we can call it the First Heaven anymore,” Old Master Gu said.
“Well… I think Immortal Ji could create a Nine Heavens within the exclusive space,” Xiong Bao said.
“Alright, let’s let Little Feng decide on this matter himself.”
Within the Third Heaven, Ji Dongfeng’s figure flickered as he rushed towards the location of the Penglai Palace. He was very interested in the Three Hearts Trial.
“If that place is also a Land of Disorder, it would be best to comprehend the Law of Disorder to perfection,” Ji Dongfeng said in a deep voice.
“After imparting the Power of the East Wind, the original energy has accumulated to 30,000 points… but to open the second gate, it requires a full 100,000 original energy… There are still two days before joining the Filth Breaker Army. Before that, it would be best to open the second gate. I’ll see if the Penglai Palace has any novel ways to die later.”
As he spoke, Ji Dongfeng arrived near the Penglai Palace and immediately saw Chen Huatian and the others gathered in the square, discussing something.
“Yo, everyone, good morning, are you interested in killing me once?” Ji Dongfeng laughed.
Upon hearing this, Chen Huatian and the others trembled. Then, they looked at Ji Dongfeng with complicated expressions. If it were normal times, they would have certainly scolded him, but now, facing Ji Dongfeng, they had no confidence at all.
“Kill you… that’s really humorous. Who in the Third Heaven can kill you now?” Chen Huatian said helplessly.
“Your strength is already at the Fifth Heaven. If we attack you, I’m afraid the entire Penglai Palace fighting for three days and three nights wouldn’t be able to kill you once.”
“Hey, people still need to have dreams. Don’t you have any trump cards?” Ji Dongfeng said.
Upon hearing this, Chen Huatian rolled his eyes and said, “What are you doing here? Our treasure vault is sealed and will only open after a while.”
Ji Dongfeng curled his lip and said, “Look at you, what realm am I in? Would I be thinking about your little treasure vault? I came here to participate in your Three Hearts Trial, and also to collect some service fees.”
Hearing the first part, Chen Huatian’s eyes lit up. Hearing the second part, the expressions of the Penglai Palace disciples changed.
“Service fees?! What service fees?!” Chen Huatian exclaimed.
“The fee for eliminating the filth and demonic cultivators for you. I did all the work in the entire Third Heaven alone. Shouldn’t you give me some service fees? Don’t have any psychological burden. Besides you, I’ll also go around the other sects,” Ji Dongfeng laughed.
Upon hearing this, Chen Huatian said nervously, “This service fee… how much…?”
“Don’t worry, I won’t ask for too much from you. Just two things: your Penglai Palace’s cultivation methods, and ten million immortal stones,” Ji Dongfeng said.
“How much?! Ten million?! Why don’t you just rob us… No, you’re robbing us right now!” Chen Huatian said with a resentful expression.
“Seriously? Such a big sect like Penglai Palace hasn’t even saved up ten million immortal stones? Are you usually too extravagant? Can you not be so lavish when spending money!” Ji Dongfeng said.
Hearing this, the Penglai Palace disciples cursed inwardly.
“Five million, no more than that,” Chen Huatian said.
“Fifteen million,” Ji Dongfeng said.
“You! Who did you learn this kind of bargaining from!”
“Born with it, self-taught.”
After a heated and friendly exchange, Chen Huatian took out eight million immortal stones and two cultivation methods. Although these two methods were not the most top-tier, they were still rare.
Ji Dongfeng chuckled and put the immortal stones and cultivation methods into his exclusive space. At the same time, Zhao Guanlan, holding the Original Hammer, tried to strike the immortal stones and finally discovered that under the effect of the Original Hammer, the immortal stones could be converted into extremely pure spiritual power. One immortal stone could be converted into tens of thousands of portions of spiritual power.
“Master, your previous guess was correct. The Original Hammer can indeed turn immortal stones into spiritual power, and without any waste!” Zhao Guanlan shouted.
“Good, transfer all these immortal stones to the First Heaven. The spiritual power converted from these immortal stones is enough for the living beings in the First Heaven to cultivate for a period of time,” Ji Dongfeng said.
“Kid, you want the Penglai Palace’s cultivation methods, it shouldn’t be for your own cultivation, right?” Ying Long said.
“That’s right, I will gather all these cultivation methods and then let Dongfeng Po study them to see if they can research a set of cultivation systems,” Ji Dongfeng said.
Qingfeng chuckled and said, “That really has a bit of the meaning of the Heavenly Dao.”
“Alright, now you can tell me what the Three Hearts Trial is all about,” Ji Dongfeng said.
Upon hearing this, Chen Huatian sighed and said, “To be honest, I also have selfish motives for letting you enter this Three Hearts Trial. I want you to save my wife.”
Ji Dongfeng was puzzled and said, “Your wife?”
“Follow me,” Chen Huatian said.
After the words fell, Chen Huatian brought Ji Dongfeng to a high mountain behind the Penglai Palace.
Arriving at the top of the mountain, Ji Dongfeng took a closer look and found a long-haired woman wearing coarse cloth clothes sitting cross-legged on a boulder. The woman’s hair was half black and half white, and her eyes were lifeless, looking lost and dejected.
Seeing this, Ji Dongfeng frowned slightly. He could tell at a glance that there was something wrong with the woman’s soul.
“Incomplete soul? No… it’s not an incomplete soul, it’s that the soul within the body is incompatible with the body, or rather, the body has become a prison, sealing the soul within the body. The soul has never been able to integrate with the body, so it is in this state,” Ji Dongfeng said.
Upon hearing this, Chen Huatian looked at Ji Dongfeng deeply and said, “You are indeed amazing, that’s exactly the reason…”
