Chapter 170 Annihilating the Three Great Golden Cores
The handsome cultivator in scholarly robes, who seemed to radiate an aura of righteousness, said gently to Wu, "Fellow Daoist Wu, we seek only wealth, not lives. As long as you hand over all your magical treasures and storage bags to us, we will naturally let you leave!"
Zhao Yu smiled faintly, "So the three esteemed fellows have come to rob me! That's excellent; in that case, I can peacefully send the three of you on your way!"
A stream of black qi instantly flew out from Zhao Yu's shadow, revealing its form—it was the White Ghost Emperor.
The White Ghost Emperor split his mouth into a hideous smile, his pupils revealing the Illusory Ghost Eyes as massive waves of pitch-black Ghost Fog rose from its body and pounced towards the three Golden Core cultivators.
"A Fourth-Order Superior Evil Ghost!!"
The Golden Core cultivator with a face full of flesh lumps drastically changed color. Behind him, a pair of pitch-black wings unfolded, and with a flap, he took off into the distance with a gust of black wind.
The scholarly Golden Core cultivator's face also changed dramatically. With a wave of his hand, a scroll-shaped magical treasure flew out directly.
As soon as the scroll-shaped magical treasure unfolded, strands of righteous qi capable of vanquishing evil spirits and fiends burst forth, bombarding the dark Ghost Fog.
Large patches of the Ghost Fog were dispersed by the righteous qi, but even more fog roiled tumultuously and swiftly enveloped the scholarly Golden Core cultivator and the scroll-shaped magical treasure.
The strikingly gorgeous female cultivator also turned pale and promptly produced a magical treasure, the Peach Blossom Sword.
Upon its appearance, the Peach Blossom Sword shone with Spiritual Light, with countless peach blossom petals orbiting around it.
Each petal, though beautiful, contained fifty-six kinds of peach blossom toxins. Even a Golden Core cultivator, if touched by a single petal, would suffer from a strange poison and endure unbearable pain.
The Peach Blossom Sword stabbed into the dense fog, cleaving through a large portion, only to be swallowed up by the Ghost Fog. The billowing fog rolled wildly and wrapped up the stunning female cultivator as well.
"You wish to escape? It's too late!"
Zhao Yu watched as the flesh-lumped Golden Core cultivator took flight, and he directly took out the Mountain Seal. The Mountain Seal swiftly flew up and, expanding with the wind, transformed into a ten-zhang-high earthen-yellow hill. Beams of Earth Magnetism Mystical Light soared into the sky, sweeping towards the fleshy Golden Core cultivator.
Startled, the cultivator hastily brought out a small blue shield magical treasure for protection.
The beams of Earth Magnetism Mystical Light struck the small blue shield, causing it to sink immediately.
Zhao Yu said, "Then give me a Fourth-Order Superior cave mansion, and I will rent it for ten years!"
"Yes!"
The Foundation Establishment caretaker quickly processed Zhao Yu's paperwork, then handed him a jade token.
Zhao Yu then proceeded to the Fourth-Order Superior cave mansion he had rented.
A flash of regret crossed Zhao Yu's eyes, "Alchemy Furnace, Quiet Room, master bedroom, Spiritual Medicine garden, beast nurturing room, and everything else included. It's a pity that the Spiritual Medicine garden is only one-tenth of an acre; too few Spiritual Medicines can be planted."
Although the cave mansion was rich with Spiritual Energy and conducive to cultivation, and could also be used to plant some rare Spirit Plants, relying on planting Spirit Plants to earn money was completely impossible.
Zhao Yu soon opened a store called Yunlan Dan Pavilion in Yunluo Immortal City. By selling various high-quality Spirit Pills, he quickly made a name for himself within Yunluo Immortal City.
The woman in charge of running the Yunlan Dan Pavilion was Zhou Minglan, a beauty bought by Zhao Yu from the Yunluo Immortal City auction house.
Five years passed in the blink of an eye.
"Five years! Not a single ancient relic or a secret realm adventure! As expected, opportunities like the heavenly White Tower are incredibly rare. No wonder that in the Cultivation World, once an ancient relic appears, countless cultivators disregard their lives to explore it.
The chance to condense a Nascent Soul is indeed too rare!" Zhao Yu sat on a lounge chair in Yunlan Dan Pavilion, watching the busy Zhou Minglan in front of him and couldn't help feeling emotional.
During these five years, Zhao Yu, under the alias Wu Tianhe, also made many Golden Core cultivator friends, but he never encountered an event involving the exploration of ancient sites.
However, in those five years, Zhao Yu also earned many Spirit Stones with his alchemy skills and purchased many Third-Order Evil Ghost Relics.
Zhao Yu got up from his lounge chair, left Yunlan Dan Pavilion, and headed to the headquarters of the Yunluo Commerce Guild to find Store Manager Yan Wuheng.
Zhao Yu said, "Fellow Daoist Yan, have you found the Three Spirits Night Blooming Cereus Seeds, Ten Gorgeous Ghost Orchid Seeds, Nine Mystical True Flower Seeds, and the True Cloud Grass of Creation and Destruction Seeds that I asked you to look for before?"
The thousand-year-old Three Spirits Night Blooming Cereus is the main ingredient in the Spirit Pill Yeting Three Spirit Dan, the thousand-year-old Ten Gorgeous Ghost Orchid is the main ingredient in the Youlan True Profound Pill, while the ten-thousand-year-old Nine Mystical True Flower and ten-thousand-year-old True Cloud Grass of Creation and Destruction are the main ingredients for the Infant Solidifying Pill.
These thousand-year-old and ten-thousand-year-old Spiritual Medicines are extremely rare, and even the Yunluo Commerce Guild couldn't buy them, so Zhao Yu could only try to get their seeds, planning to cultivate them himself.
