Nine Realms Sword Emperor-Chapter 860 - 861: Harvested Greatly

The Tianquan Merchants Association, among the countless emerging merchant associations in the Central Domain, is already somewhat renowned and has developed quite well.

Being able to establish a city, this Tianquan Merchants Association has already founded a sect and started steadily accumulating power.

If, someday in the future, the Tianquan Patriarch ascends again and steps into the Destiny Realm, enough to be called an Emperor, the Tianquan Merchants Association has a great chance of becoming a top-tier power.

However, unfortunately, the Tianquan Elder was too greedy, and now he has died at the hands of Chu Fengmian, and the Tianquan Merchants Association has been utterly destroyed by Chu Fengmian.

"I’ve struck it rich; I’ve truly made a fortune this time!"

After counting the wealth of the Tianquan Merchants Association, Chu Fengmian’s face was extremely pleased, as the enormous wealth of the Tianquan Merchants Association now belonged to him.

If Chu Fengmian wished, with his current wealth, he could establish another Tianquan Merchants Association.

If he returned to the Northern Domain, the sect established by Chu Fengmian might not stand on equal footing with Beimang Academy and the Demonic Sect, these two great powers, but it would surpass numerous Martial Arts families to become the third-largest power in the Northern Domain.

However, Chu Fengmian did not have such intentions; founding a sect usually is a choice made by a martial artist whose realm has stabilized to increase their strength.

But Chu Fengmian doesn’t need that. He still has the drive, and his goal is to reach the pinnacle of the Nine Domains. Unless he ascends to the peak of the Nine Domains, he won’t choose to establish a sect.

"I really must thank the Tianquan Patriarch this time."

Chu Fengmian couldn’t help but sigh.

If it weren’t for the Tianquan Patriarch coming to attack him, Chu Fengmian wouldn’t have had such an opportunity to directly plunder the Tianquan Merchants Association.

The majority of the sacred medicines needed to refine the Jade Dew Life-breaking Pill are already prepared.

If not for this opportunity, Chu Fengmian would have had to expend countless methods, but this time he found a shortcut.

Only one of the elixirs needed to refine the Jade Dew Life-breaking Pill remains.

"Jade Dew Holy Fruit."

Chu Fengmian murmured this name.

This last sacred medicine is the most important one needed for the Jade Dew Life-breaking Pill – the Jade Dew Holy Fruit.

The Jade Dew Holy Fruit is the innate origin fruit, stemming from the first Divine Tree of the Ancient Times, the Jianmu, which bore this fruit.

The Jianmu has long since been destroyed countless ages ago, with only some branches remaining, just like the one Chu Fengmian obtained.

However, the Jianmu Divine Tree, though shattered, still left behind some branches, unlike the Jianmu branch Chu Fengmian acquired.

The Jianmu branch Chu Fengmian obtained only contains the life-force power of the Jianmu, without any young leaves.

However, back in the Ancient Times, when the Jianmu Divine Tree shattered, some branches retained young leaves. These Jianmu branches were later acquired, growing into small Divine Trees.

Though they cannot compare to the original Jianmu Divine Tree, they are still treasures of the world. From these Divine Trees, the Jade Dew Holy Fruit might also grow.

At least in Chu Fengmian’s memory, he knows of a place where there is a Divine Tree that bears the Jade Dew Holy Fruit.

However, the location of this Divine Tree is an extremely dangerous place for Chu Fengmian.

Ancient Desolate Sect.

This Divine Tree is located within the Ancient Desolate Sect, a place that rose to prominence because of this very Divine Tree.

Before the rise of the Ancient Desolate Sect, this Divine Tree was its greatest secret, unable to be revealed to the outside world, unknown to anyone.

After all, everything the Divine Tree produces, from each leaf to each twig, is a treasure of the heavens, of immense value to any martial artist.

Whoever possesses the Divine Tree effectively owns a massive treasure trove that everyone desires, with countless strong individuals vying to seize it.

Hence, this secret remained unknown to anyone until the Ancient Desolate Sect became one of the Seven Great Sects, after which some martial artists learned of its existence.

Now, the animosity between Chu Fengmian and the Seven Great Sects is one of irreconcilable enmity. Even without any animosity, given Chu Fengmian’s current wealth, he would be viewed as a mortal enemy by the Seven Great Sects.

An innocent man harbors a treasure; that logic has always been a recognized truth within the Nine Domains.

If Chu Fengmian were to venture into the Ancient Desolate Sect, it would be akin to walking into the jaws of death. The patriarchs within the Ancient Desolate Sect are numerous times more powerful than Beimang Academy, and those who have stepped into the Destiny Realm, called Emperors, surpass even the Seven Great Sects.

If Chu Fengmian were discovered, he could very well be hunted by countless powerful individuals of the Ancient Desolate Sect, placing him in an extremely perilous situation.

But throughout the Nine Domains, as far as Chu Fengmian knows, the only place where the Jade Dew Holy Fruit exists is within the Ancient Desolate Sect.

Chu Fengmian wants to obtain the Jade Dew Holy Fruit to refine the Jade Dew Life-breaking Pill, and beyond that, there are virtually no other choices.

"It seems I have no choice but to go, to the Ancient Desolate Sect."

Chu Fengmian’s eyes glimmered as they gazed in the direction of the Ancient Desolate Sect.

This journey to the Ancient Desolate Sect appears to be inevitable for him. As long as he obtains the Jade Dew Holy Fruit, Chu Fengmian will then have enough to refine the Jade Dew Life-breaking Pill.

At that time, it will be the moment Chu Fengmian breaks through realms, surpassing life and death, and stepping into the Fragmented Life Realm.

Chu Fengmian’s figure skimmed through the air, flying above the clouds, while also observing the surroundings.

What Chu Fengmian was doing was precisely seeking the location of the Ancient Desolate Sect.

In his past life, Chu Fengmian had only heard of the Ancient Desolate Sect’s location but had never been there himself.

Thus, along the way, Chu Fengmian flew above the clouds, searching for a route.

As Chu Fengmian flew through the air, his appearance had undergone a complete transformation, a total makeover.

Chu Fengmian’s visage had become that of an exceptionally ordinary-looking man; his aura remained unchanged, still at the peak of the Life and Death Realm, but he concealed the potent and terrifying Spiritual Power within him.

He appeared no different from an ordinary martial artist at the peak of the Life and Death Realm. frёeweɓηovel_coɱ

Chu Fengmian didn’t desire to brazenly approach the Ancient Desolate Sect, fearing that before obtaining the Jade Dew Holy Fruit, he might be killed by the sect’s powerful individuals.

So now, Chu Fengmian disguised his appearance, transforming into a genius martial artist from the Western Domain’s Twilight Dynasty.

Given Chu Fengmian’s current strength, even an Emperor of the Destiny Realm would find it difficult to see through his disguise. Thus, he chose to take the risk and venture into the Ancient Desolate Sect.

As long as he avoids those true ancients within the sect, Chu Fengmian will have nothing to fear.
