Cultivation: From Servant to Revered Immortal-Chapter 311 - 59: Negotiations and a Great Harvest!

Chapter 311: Chapter 59: Negotiations and a Great Harvest!

"Alchemist Zhou, you truly are young and promising, with formidable strength!"

"How about we call it quits?"

Master Yun Yi slowly spoke, unable to hide a trace of sorrow in his tone. At the same time, he cast a spell onto the giant hammer.

The immense power of the giant hammer instantly withdrew and flew back towards Master Yun Yi.

"Very well, as Master says!"

Zhou Xun nodded. Though he wasn’t intimidated by Master Yun Yi, all he could manage was to remain undefeated or perhaps win by a slight margin.

Continuing the fight would most likely lead to no result.

The purpose of Zhou Xun’s presence was to intimidate the Cloud Light Sect and buy time for himself.

Now that even Master Yun Yi has chosen to cease fighting, Zhou Xun’s purpose was achieved, and he had no further reason to continue.

Besides, the Cloud Light Sect isn’t weak; with two True Pill Cultivators, over a dozen Fake Pills, and centuries of heritage, they surely have plenty of trump cards.

If a life-and-death situation truly arises, Zhou Xun would currently still have a higher chance of losing.

After all, Wangchuan Lake relies solely on him.

At that time, perhaps he could escape himself, but his subordinates would likely meet their demise.

Moreover, since Master Yun Yi proposed a ceasefire first, it was tantamount to voluntarily seeking peace.

In that case, paying some hefty compensation was unavoidable.

The Cloud Light Sect has dominated Xui Country for thousands of years, with a long-standing heritage and countless Treasures of Heaven and Earth.

Perfect for Zhou Xun to use.

Simultaneously, his spell changed, and the twelve Thunder Chains instantly withdrew, allowing Master Yun Yi’s lifebound magical treasure to return.

Both of them simultaneously retracted their magical treasures.

At this point, Master Yun Yi understood.

Once choosing to seek peace, Zhou Xun’s grievances must be completely dispelled; after all, their Cloud Light Sect instigated the matter.

After contemplating, he slowly said:

"As for the matter of Master Fengyue, it is indeed the fault of our Cloud Light Sect, disturbing Alchemist Zhou. It was truly uncalled for!"

"Firstly, we are willing to offer a Middle-Grade Wood Attribute Defensive Magical Treasure to compensate Alchemist Zhou,"

Generally speaking, Middle-Grade Magical Treasures are the limit for Core Formation Cultivators to use.

For example, Master Yun Yi’s lifebound magical treasure, the giant hammer, only barely reached the threshold of a Middle-Grade Magical Treasure decades ago.

At the level of High-Grade Magical Treasures, they are essentially the exclusive property of True Monarchs Nascent Soul.

However, some ancient sects in today’s Eastern Wilderness may have High-Grade Magical Treasures left by Nascent Soul Ancestors who have passed away.

Some highly cultivated Late-Stage Core Formation Cultivators can barely drive them.

And this magic treasure that Master Yun Yi compensates with,

is Middle-Grade level, already the best treasure for Core Formation Stage, and defensive ones are even more valuable.

Moreover, it matches Zhou Xun’s attribute,

far better than his current Profound Cyan Shield and White Turtle Shield.

One could say that this one item almost equals the gains from the day Master Fengyue was killed.

"Secondly, I myself am nearing the end of my life,

Lin Xueying, this girl, is exceptionally talented. I have high hopes for her. Now that Master Fengyue is deceased, I would take her as an heir disciple and fully cultivate her to Core Formation, so she may later succeed as Grand Elder!"

Heir disciples are more core than true disciples.

Like Xing Huai’an under Master White Cloud, that is the true successor.

This means Master Yun Yi intends to hand over the entire Cloud Light Sect to Lin Xueying in the future.

This is actually the most significant reason Master Yun Yi chose to negotiate.

For him, at this point, it doesn’t matter whether Master Fengyue perishes, Master Jin Hong perishes, or if he himself perishes.

As long as the Cloud Light Sect can continue its legacy.

And Lin Xueying not only has a close relationship with Zhou Xun but is also extraordinarily gifted.

If she can be cultivated to the True Pill Realm to take over as Grand Elder,

by then, when Zhou Xun, who bears a grudge, has already passed away and Lin Xueying is in power at Cloud Light Sect,

why would the grown-up powerhouse Zhou Xun have any reason to act against Cloud Light Sect?

He’s even brought Zhou Xun directly onto Cloud Light Sect’s strategic path, becoming a foundation of the sect.

With Lin Xueying’s deep admiration for Zhou Xun, by then, the treasure vault of the Cloud Light Sect might be hardly different from his own.

Zhou Xun naturally understood this logic too.

With this in mind, Zhou Xun couldn’t help but admire the old man before him.

An open strategy where both parties benefit!

Unexpectedly, in such a situation, Master Yun Yi found such a win-win solution.

"Thirdly, I wonder if Alchemist Zhou has any other requests. I will undoubtedly comply!" Master Yun Yi said, turning his gaze towards Zhou Xun.

"Your sect has a long heritage and deep foundation!"

"Zhou Mou has great interest in the Path of Talisman Masters. If there exists a Tier Three or higher talisman master heritage, that would be wonderful,"

"Additionally, I require two Tier Three High-Grade Spirit Medicines, four Tier Three Middle-Grade Spirit Medicines, and thirty High-Grade Spirit Stones. I wonder if Master can satisfy these?"

Since Master Yun Yi offered, Zhou Xun naturally didn’t hold back, putting forward his conditions.

His original Talisman Dao heritage was at most Quasi-Third Tier, now perfect for acquisition, and those medicinal herbs were exactly to enhance his Spiritual Root.

The High-Grade Spirit Stones were for driving puppets, as Zhou Xun had decided to specialize in the Path of Puppetry, a power source of High-Grade Spirit Stones would surely be needed in the future.

"Alright, I agree!" Master Yun Yi readily agreed without hesitation.

"Not only that, I can increase the Tier Three High-Grade Spirit Medicine to three plants, Tier Three Middle-Grade Spirit Medicine to six plants, and as for the High-Grade Spirit Stones, I can offer fifty pieces!"

"Additionally, I will mark an area of ten thousand miles around Wangchuan Lake as yours!"

Master Yun Yi spoke.

In his opinion, since negotiation was chosen, in order to dispel the opponent’s grievances, there’s no need to be stingy with some treasures.

Thus, he nearly doubled Zhou Xun’s demands once again.

One could say it was a significant investment.

Upon hearing this, Zhou Xun was greatly pleased, never expecting Master Yun Yi to have such a perspective.

With three Tier Three High-Grade and six Tier Three Middle-Grade, even his current Earth Spirit Root could be enhanced by over ten points in Spirit Root Sensitivity.

This was indeed a substantial gain!

In this way, Zhou Xun’s being has a chance to elevate his Spiritual Root to the peak of Earth Spirit Root before Core Formation.

When forming the core, the probability of condensing an Immortal Golden Core would increase significantly.

"Everything as Master says!" Zhou Xun smiled slightly and spoke.

Master Yun Yi breathed a sigh of relief at his words; he had finally overcome this challenge.

He then slapped his storage bag, took out a palm-sized jade green shield with strange patterns carved on it, and handed it to Zhou Xun.

"This treasure is called ’Wood Element Shield’, crafted with Tier Three High-Grade Exotic Wood as the primary material, among Middle-Grade Magical Treasures, it is of superior quality!"

"I hand this over to you first, and as for the rest, I will personally arrange for it to be sent to Wangchuan Lake!"

Zhou Xun accepted the small shield.

Holding it in hand brought a warm sensation, with an invisible spirit charm flowing over its surface.

Indeed, a Middle-Grade Magical Treasure, truly extraordinary.

After playing with it for a moment, he then put it into his storage bag.

With the negotiation complete, Master Yun Yi immediately returned.

And Zhou Xun also returned to Wangchuan Lake.
