Chapter 516: End of the Road for Venemous Ying

Translator: Radiant Editor: Radiant

The Nine Rigid Prefecture Master and the Celestial Prefecture Master were the first two stage four World Deities to come over and pay Xue Ying visit. In that same month, more stage four World Deities had arrived one after another. Someone more ordinary or with weaker combat power would not have been able to stop themselves from accepting the precious gifts these people could give out! But a stronger expert would find it very easy to refuse such benefits.

In the end, most of the visiting stage four World Deities brought Demon Bone Ash along with them! After all, they were normally difficult to purchase, and only the overlords from the Deity world found themselves able to bring out some, since they’d lived for longer than usual, and had deeper foundations.

Xue Ying only had one thing to say to any of the visiting World Deities: “I will not receive any of them as gifts, but I am willing to purchase them. Five hundred grams of Demon Bone Ash I will take for fifty million Deity crystals, and I will not purchase any more than two and a half kilograms.”

While the cultivation process of the fourth volume of Xue Ying’s”Luminous Sun” absolute art required more precious treasures, what it asked for the most of was still Demon Bone Ash. However, he did not have enough Deity crystals to purchase all of it unless he brought out the many treasures from the Crimson Rock Mountain and exchange them. At the same time, he was not too hurried, since he could only begin cultivating the fourth volume of once he became a stage four World Deity. As such, he could just until he had accumulated more Deity crystals and then begin to slowly purchase the necessary reagents.

“This…”

“Fifty million Deity crystals for five hundred grams? Ten million Deity crystals would be more than enough.”

In response, the stage four World Deities felt that the price Xue Ying set was too high.

“Fifty million Deity crystals, and I won’t purchase more than two and a half kilograms,” Xue Ying simply restated. The price was neither low nor high, so it would not end up forming karma. It was nothing more than an exchange.

In the end, those first five stage four to arrive World Deities still sold Xue Ying five hundred grams of Demon Bone Ash each, forming a bond of friendship with him in the process.

“Ai.”

“It’s not so easy to form karma with Dong Bo after all.”

“His Highness Dong Bo is, after all, His Majesty’s personal disciple. He wouldn’t be so foolish as to just casually receive our gifts.”

In just one short month, a total of thirty-five stage four World Deities had come over to visit Xue Ying. Some wished to form karma with him, while others purely wanted to meet him. Most of these stage four World Deities had arrived from distant places. However, there had been no powerful existences among his visitors except for Forefather Scarlet Flame whom he was already familiar with. He was the only one to travel a large distance and congratulate him. After all, powerful existences had all transcended into eternity, making them less anxious than the stage four World Deities.

The Sun Star was one of the two most mysterious and powerful stars. Together with the moon star, it formed a couple of extremes for the entire Deity world, eternally illuminating it together with the material realm and the Dark Abyss. Furthermore, they could not be reached just by flying in their general direction.

Hong~

The Sun Star took on the appearance of an immensely large ball of fire, the flames covering its surface taking on a liquid state, as if they were a planet’s oceans. Even so, the fire continued to flow out of the star, reaching incomparably hot and terrifying temperatures, its power able to reflect upon the entire material realm, Deity world and Dark Abyss. It was easy to see just how terrifying it had to be. In fact, its laws were much more complex than those of the world. It was able to match the laws of the material realm and the Dark Abyss.

Many of the powerful existences visited the Sun Star quite often.

“Hahaha.” A house stood on the very surface of the sun star, inside it a little courtyard no more than ten meters in diameter. The courtyard was filled in its entirety with the sun’s flames.

Within the courtyard there was a white-haired old man with a child-like countenance, who could be seen laughing out loud at this very moment. “I, Scarlet Flame, am a rather lucky fellow. Back when I helped that Dong Bo brat, I had no idea that he would have such huge achievements. There’s some chance he’ll surpass even me in the future. Haha, he owes me a favor, and the karma formed isn’t light.”

The act of saving Jing Qiu was just as easy as lifting his hands for Forefather Scarlet Flame, but Xue Ying had been willing to use his own life if it meant healing Jing Qiu’s soul at that time! He had begged the Temporal Temple, but they ignored him, thinking that Xue Ying was not valuable enough. After all, to save Jing Qiu, they would either have to cover the cost of a precious treasure that could reconstruct the soul, or ask for a powerful existence to act. Either option would be very expensive. Xue Ying had found himself at a roadblock, with nobody to look to for help!

Yet that time, Xue Ying was someone willing to use his life to exchange for Jing Qiu’s soul! He begged the Temporal Temple, yet the Temporal Temple ignored him, and thought that Xue Ying did not have that value. After all, it would require the cost of a precious treasure that could reconstruct the soul in order to save Jing Qiu, or that a powerful existence acted. Whichever one would require a huge cost. Xue Ying had no paths to walk, and nobody to look forward for help!

Forefather Scarlet Flame, as a powerful existence was the only one to lend him a helping hand.

In order to repay this act of kindness, Xue Ying was willing to use his own life.

“Brat Dong Bo, your future is boundless. You better not reject this old man if I ever and up asking for your help.” This was the sentence Forefather Scarlet Flame left Xue Ying with as he congratulated him.

“Forefather only needs order me, and I, Dong Bo Xue Ying, will definitely do anything to accomplish, even if it costs me my life,” Xue Ying crisply replied.
