Chapter 256: Choices of Divine Artifacts, Future Prospects!

“Good.” Meng Changqing nodded.

At the same time, a slight shift in his heart occurred. It seemed that Senior Brother Master’s strength was even higher than he had imagined.

This was no longer the Southern Region. This was Central Province!

Here, even the Grand Elder had such confidence.

Without further thought, Meng Changqing took out the divine items he obtained from the Wild Sea, except for the third-tier Wish Spirit Fruit.

He placed all the others one by one on the table. The sheer number of divine items appearing at once stunned even the experienced Grand Elder. Especially the nine second-tier Wish Spirit Fruits, the second-tier Silver Vein Grass, and the second-tier Divine Flower.

“The Demon Path is as ruthless as always. They always deplete resources without regard.

“However, it is because of this that we were able to obtain nine second-tier divine items, and they even belong to the Wish Spirit Fruit species.”

The Grand Elder opened his eyes wide, his gaze shining.

Currently, there were fourteen items in total. This meant that they could create fourteen individuals with the strength of the Marquis!

However, this was just an ideal. Not everyone who used them would necessarily succeed. And since these were brought back by Meng Changqing, the precious items were for him to decide on.

The Grand Elder put away three ordinary divine items, one second-tier Wish Spirit Fruit, and one second-tier Divine Flower.

He didn’t touch the rest.

Upon seeing this, Meng Changqing raised an eyebrow.

With the third-tier Spirit Fruit, these items didn’t really have much use for him. At most, he could trade them for something else.

But for the sect, they were extremely valuable, capable of creating many powerful individuals.

“The sect doesn’t have that many Life and Death Realm peak experts right now.

“Those who should have ascended, already have.”

The Grand Elder said, “This second-tier Divine Flower can be traded for several ordinary divine items, helping many individuals break through in the future.”

Generally speaking, the top prodigies had the potential to reach the Marquis. It wasn’t that difficult.

But the number of top prodigies was incredibly small.

Most of the world’s top talents were prodigies and top prodigies. However, the potential of prodigies was low.

Whether it was their root bones or comprehension, their limit was often the Life and Death Realm.

As for top prodigies, the most they could achieve was the first stage of the Marquis, and they would remain there forever.

Even with third-tier divine items, there would be no change. So it was better to use ordinary divine items.

It saved resources and gave others more opportunities.

“As for the second-tier Wish Spirit Fruit, I plan to give it to Yun Bujue,” the Grand Elder said.

His expression changed slightly.

Yun Bujue had also appeared on the square. Covered in a gloomy and deathly aura, he came last, and after returning, went straight to his room. He didn’t come out again.

It seemed that he had suffered real injuries and harmed his origin in the Wild Sea.

His lifespan was already limited, and now he was like a candle in the wind, on the verge of extinguishing at any moment. The only solution now was to use this second-tier precious divine item to help him break through!

Although, with his current physical potential, the best he could achieve was the first stage of the Marquis.

But at least it would extend his life by one or two hundred years. He could continue to live.

Back then, nearly half of the eighteen disciples died, and he didn’t want to lose anyone else.

“Good.” Meng Changqing nodded.

He actually had the same thought. But with Senior Brother Yun’s stubborn nature, he felt that his words would likely be ineffective.

Only the Grand Elder might have a chance to persuade him.

“Also, here are some Marquis resources.” The Grand Elder took out a jade box. “Some are from the sect’s inventory, and some were obtained from the Genius Battle.”

“With your root bone absorption rate, it’s enough to support you reaching the fifth or sixth stage of the Marquis.

“As for the future, the sect is still coordinating and will send resources gradually.”

Hearing this, Meng Changqing’s eyes brightened.

It was already a certainty that he would step into the Marquis, so resources for this realm were now crucial. And currently, he had none.

It seemed that the sect had truly made preparations for him, arranging everything in advance. Once he reached a new realm, corresponding resources would be provided.

The Marquis was already the late stage of cultivation. Thus, the consumption of resources was extremely high, both in quality and quantity.

It far exceeded the requirements of previous stages.

Ordinary cultivators, without the support of a sect, could never grow strong.

This was one of the main reasons there were no strong loose cultivators in the vast cultivation world.

“These days, I’m afraid the top forces of the Four Regions will come looking for you.” the Grand Elder said, “They will want to trade for your second-tier Wish Spirit Fruit.”

As an elder with rich experience, the Grand Elder naturally knew what would happen next. There were only ten divine items in the entire Wild Sea, and Meng Changqing had obtained five of them, as well as all the nine second-tier Wish Spirit Fruits.

The other forces would surely have designs on these Wish Spirit Fruits.

“Senior Brother, what do you think?” Meng Changqing raised an eyebrow.

“From the sect’s perspective, naturally, we should keep them and cultivate more powerful individuals,” the Grand Elder said, “But right now, the sect’s focus is on cultivating you. If we can exchange them for precious resources and speed up your cultivation, that would be ideal!”

“Mm.” Meng Changqing nodded.

In this respect, the sect’s attitude was very commendable.

Unlike some forces that would hoard valuable items for themselves and not consider their disciples, his own sect was the opposite.

They always considered him first, and then themselves.

“If we really want to trade, what should I ask for?” Meng Changqing asked.

He was quite inexperienced in this area.

The Grand Elder smiled and began to explain, greatly increasing Meng Changqing’s knowledge and experience.

“Actually, trading with these forces has a benefit,” the Grand Elder said with a smile, “That is, making connections. These people are all future pillars of the major forces and have a lot of influence.

“For you, this is also a network, an invisible power.

“In critical moments, it can provide great assistance.”

Hearing this, Meng Changqing fully agreed.

The people he met now were becoming increasingly extraordinary, and it was indeed worth cultivating deeper connections with them, rather than just one-time acquaintances.
