Chapter 641: Chapter 23: True Monarch Tianci: Oh No, I’ve Become the Supporting Cast! (Part 2)
"Daoist Brother, you flatter me!" Zhou Xun modestly replied,
then, under the watchful eyes of everyone, took a seat next to True Monarch Qianchuan.
"Younger Brother Zhou, when did you become acquainted with Alliance Leader Yu? You seem very familiar with each other!" Just as he sat down, True Monarch Qianchuan eagerly inquired.
Beside him, two cultivators also showed curious expressions!
This is True Monarch Yama, the foremost cultivator of the Central Continent!
"Entering the Immortal City back then, I was fortunate to meet..." Zhou Xun began recounting his experiences entering the city in those years. ƒгeewebnovёl.com
"I see, Younger Brother is indeed lucky!" True Monarch Qianchuan nodded, and then began introducing the cultivators beside him.
"It’s been nearly a year since Younger Brother joined the Immortal City, yet you haven’t met other Daoist friends in the city,"
"To my left is Elder Hong, our senior Nascent Soul Cultivator in the Immortal City and also a Tier Four Low-Grade Array Master!"
"Daoist Hong!" Zhou Xun immediately looked at the tall elder with a ruddy complexion and flying hair and beard, clasping his hands in greeting!
"I heard from the City Lord that a Daoist friend joined, and today I see you are indeed extraordinary, worthy of high praise from Alliance Leader Yu!"
The elder laughed heartily, appearing extremely pleased!
"This is Daoist He, famous in our South Sea for his water-type techniques!" True Monarch Qianchuan pointed to the elder in green,
The person had gray hair, a lean face, and appeared refined and scholarly!
After a simple courtesy, they began a lively conversation.
Just then, a commotion at the doorway caught everyone’s attention,
Zhou Xun subconsciously looked up to see a familiar figure!
"Erniu!"
At this moment, Wang Erniu was following a short, somewhat unkempt old man,
Without being told, who would know this strange old man was the renowned unparalleled sword cultivator of the Central Continent — True Monarch Nine Swords! freewebnoveℓ.com
At this moment, Wang Erniu also spotted Zhou Xun, feeling overjoyed, he quickly whispered a message:
"Big Brother, you’re here too!"
"Here to broaden my horizons!" Zhou Xun smiled and replied,
Wang Erniu then whispered a few words into the old man’s ear,
Afterwards, True Monarch Nine Swords walked over to Zhou Xun, smiling as he said:
"You must be the True Monarch Wangchuan that Erniu spoke of, indeed extraordinary!"
"True Monarch, you flatter me!" Zhou Xun modestly replied,
"When you have time, do come to my residence for a drink, and let us get to know each other better!" The elder said simply, then led Wang Erniu to his own seat.
This scene once again caught everyone’s attention,
"Who exactly is this True Monarch Wangchuan, being so warmly received by two great True Monarchs?"
"I also do not know, but to be treated so by two great True Monarchs, they must be extraordinary!"
"After today, the name of True Monarch Wangchuan will be renowned throughout the world!"
...
In the following half hour, more than twenty Nascent Soul cultivators arrived one after another,
"Ahem—"
At this moment, True Monarch Celestial One stood up, lightly coughed, instantly drawing everyone’s attention.
"I see those who are coming have mostly arrived, so let’s begin!"
At this point, there were approximately 140 Nascent Soul old monsters on the fifth floor, nearly 40% of those in the Immortal City!
This number had already far exceeded Zhou Xun’s expectations!
After all, this exchange meeting happens once a year, very frequently, and most with exchange needs already traded at previous meetings,
Furthermore, at least a third of the cultivators are stationed elsewhere and could not attend, making this exchange meeting quite successful!
"At this exchange meeting, every Daoist friend can showcase the treasures they wish to trade or purchase items, all trades are voluntary!"
"Guu Mou will first offer something to spark interest!"
The elder said as he patted his storage bag, taking out five Tier Four Middle-Grade Talismans.
"Five Tier Four Middle-Grade Attack Talismans, exchangeable for elixirs or related spirit medicines that can enhance cultivation! Each person may purchase one, of course, if no one trades, they will be sold for spirit stones to the highest bidder!"
True Monarch Celestial One said with a smile.
At his level, most treasures were of little use, and bringing these treasures out was merely to benefit others, providing many True Monarch Nascent Souls with an additional means!
"I’ll take one, how about a bottle of Essence Pills?" A dark-skinned middle-aged man in the crowd spoke.
"If it’s a full bottle, there’s no problem!" True Monarch Celestial One said, taking the bottle from the man, examining it closely, and nodding slightly,
"Not bad, the elixir’s potency is sufficient, it’s of good quality, can be exchanged, which talisman do you want?"
"I want the ’Wood Dragon Talisman’!" The man said joyfully, clearly a wood-attribute cultivator, able to fully harness the power of this talisman!
Soon, True Monarch Celestial One completed the transaction of this talisman!
Currently, in the crowd of over a hundred Nascent Soul cultivators, only a quarter were late-stage cultivators, the remaining ninety, who wouldn’t be interested in a talisman capable of unleashing a middle-stage peak cultivator’s strike.
For those early-stage Nascent Soul cultivators, it’s certainly a precious treasure to rely on,
Many among the crowd showed eager expressions.
Nearby Zhou Xun, Elder Hong and another elder He were likewise intrigued,
Even Zhou Xun himself was very tempted, as such talismans are never too many for him.
Unfortunately, what True Monarch Celestial One wanted was an elixir to enhance mana, and Zhou Xun only had Pill Origin Wine!
But to exchange for a talisman, he would need to take out dozens of pounds, and he wouldn’t have much left, making it naturally impossible!
Suddenly, Zhou Xun began to ponder!
True Monarch Celestial One was already at the Nascent Soul Peak; unless it was a treasure for breaking through to Divinity Transformation, nothing would really attract him!
He was exchanging for elixirs to enhance mana not for himself, but for his sect!
For a sect, elixirs to break through major realms are most desired!
"If I take out that Small Nascent Soul Pill, would I fear competition?"
Thinking of this, Zhou Xun immediately stood up and loudly declared:
"Daoist Brother Guu, I am willing to exchange a ’Small Nascent Soul Pill’ for that Fire Attribute ’Nine Dragon Talisman’!"
"Oh, it’s actually this pill, let me take a look!"
Indeed, hearing about this elixir, True Monarch Celestial One looked over at Zhou Xun, who immediately tossed over the bottle containing the Small Nascent Soul Pill!
True Monarch Celestial One received it and began examining,
"Not bad, I can exchange it with you!"
He then tossed over the Nine Dragon Talisman.
Zhou Xun waved his hand, taking it into his storage bag, with Elder Hong and Elder He showing envious expressions,
"Congratulations Younger Brother Zhou on securing a fine treasure!"
"It’s just luck..."
The remaining three were quickly exchanged by the other cultivators, and then True Monarch Celestial One sat back down!
After him was a middle-aged man in a brocade robe, who took out two bottles of elixirs that could enhance cultivation, suitable for early-stage Nascent Soul use,
wanting to exchange for spiritual objects capable of repairing foundational damage!
Unfortunately, items capable of repairing the foundation are exceedingly rare, and the middle-aged man could only sit down as his expectation was dashed!
After that, one cultivator after another brought out their treasures, including elixirs, talismans, refining materials, and spirit grass!
However, most were Tier Four Low-Grade, which didn’t interest Zhou Xun much.
The exchange meeting continued afterward.
Suddenly, a middle-aged man with an honest face stood up!
"I have a Tier Four Middle-Grade Purple Coral, as many of you know, the Purple Coral is a rare treasure of the South Sea, perfect for refining Purple Essence Pills, one of the best elixirs for enhancing mana during the Nascent Soul stage!"
"Even for middle-stage cultivators, it has a significant effect!"
"I want to exchange it for a High-Grade Attack Treasure!"
As soon as he finished speaking, there was a moment of silence; although intrigued, most were reluctant to exchange a treasure, especially a high-grade one.
"Daoist Wu, although the Purple Coral is rare, it’s not worth a High-Grade Treasure, is it?" someone questioned!
After all, most cultivators present only had one high-grade treasure; the idea of exchanging a piece of spirit medicine for one seemed greedy!
While Zhou Xun also wanted the spirit medicine, the value difference was too great, so he naturally didn’t intend to throw money away senselessly.
Seeing no responses, the middle-aged man didn’t seem embarrassed, chuckling as he added,
"I forgot to mention, this Purple Coral is not a single piece, but a pair!"
