Chapter 529: The primordial treasure ’Nine Virtues Phoenix Saber’


    Trantor: GodBrandy Editor: Kurisu


    So, this golden-haired woman is really Venerable Sixth Cultivator of True Virtue? In addition, although she had once reached the Seventh Stage Venerable Realm, her strength decreased and returned to the Sixth Stage True Monarch Realm for some reason. Eventually, she built the grave of Venerable Sixth Cultivator of True Virtue and buried herself within...


    After that, Venerable Seventh Cultivator of True Virtue took the ce of the other Cultivators of True Virtue that had retired and started to represent them in the world...?


    In other words, if I sign this contract and be the Eighth Cultivator of True Virtue, will I also rece Venerable Seventh Cultivator of True Virtue someday in the future?


    At this time, the golden-haired woman asked once again, "So, what about it? Do you want to sign the contract?"


    Song Shuhang replied, "Senior Sixth Cultivator of True Virtue, can you tell me in detail about this matter of bing the Eighth Cultivator of True Virtue first?"


    Song Shuhang had no idea what was going on. How could he casually sign the contract?


    "I knew you would ask this question. Therefore, I prepared myself beforehand." The golden-haired woman took something out of her clothes. It was a precious stone that had several frames recorded inside with the usage of a magical technique. It was one of the several methods that cultivators used in the past to record things, before the invention of cameras and the likes.


    "Here it is. Luckily, I kept this stone with me. Although it’s a bit old, it’s still working," the golden-haired woman said.


    After she finished speaking, Sixth Cultivator of True Virtue activated the precious stone, and the picture of an ancient grave was projected midair.


    It was the picture of a in chamber tomb with no decorations. There was a silver coffin inside, as well as a signboard with the following words written on it: Here lies the body of True Monarch Fifth Cultivator of True Virtue.


    It was the grave of True Monarch Fifth Cultivator of True Virtue.


    In the video, the lid of the silver coffin was slowly pushed to one side, and a figure came out of the coffin. The figure had a faint smile on his face and seemed rather amiable.


    As soon as the man came out of the coffin, Song Shuhang called out, "True Monarch Fallout?!"


    The figure that came out of the coffin was precisely that senior from the Nine Provinces Number One Group, True Monarch Fallout. Song Shuhang remembered that True Monarch Fallout was a very patient senior.


    Not long ago, when the Nine Provinces Number One Group fought against the blood demon, it was precisely True Monarch Fallout that sat next to Song Shuhang and exined to him everything about the battle.


    Afterward, he managed to ce amongst the first five in the hand-guided tractorpetition and went to explore the ancient ruins together with Venerable White.


    True Monarch Fallout is unexpectedly the Fifth Cultivator of True Virtue?


    "True Monarch Fallout? Oh, you must be referring to Fifth Cultivator of True Virtue’s thirty-something generation descendant. That kid is rather hard-working. He reached the True Monarch Realm at such a young age," the golden-haired woman said thoughtlessly.


    "..." Song Shuhang.


    If even his descendant thirty-odd generationster has the same face, this Fifth Cultivator of True Virtue must have some pretty incredible genes, right?


    Such being the case, do True Monarch Fallout’s father, grandfather, and uncles also have the same face?


    ??????


    In the video, True Monarch Fallout’s ancestor, Fifth Cultivator of True Virtue, floated above the silver coffin. From the looks of it, he was patiently exining something to a young cultivator.


    After Song Shuhang looked at the young cultivator, he discovered that it was Venerable Seventh Cultivator of True Virtue!


    Venerable Seventh Cultivator of True Virtue looked very young in the video, but his cultivation realm was still at the Fourth Stage Innate Realm or above. He was riding a flying sword in the video, something that only cultivators of the Fourth Stage could do.


    Is that a picture of Venerable Seventh Cultivator of True Virtue exploring the grave of True Monarch Fifth Cultivator of True Virtue? The picture should have been taken before he signed the contract and became the Seventh Cultivator of True Virtue.


    Right at this time, True Monarch Fifth Cultivator of True Virtue started his exnation.


    "Bing the Seventh Cultivator of True Virtue isn’t rted to a vocation, and you won’t be my disciple after signing the contract, either. To be precise, Fifth Cultivator of True Virtue, Sixth Cultivator of True Virtue, Seventh Cultivator of True Virtue, and so on aren’t dao names of the same lineage or vocation... what links these several names together is a primordial treasure!"


    Just like his descendant thirty-plus generationster, Fifth Cultivator of True Virtue was a very patient man and exined things thoroughly.


    A primordial treasure?


    In the video, the young Venerable Seventh Cultivator of True Virtue was a bit confused.


    Song Shuhang, who was looking at the scene, was likewise confused.


    What links the various XXX Cultivators of True Virtue together is a primordial treasure? Although I don’t know what a primordial treasure is, it should be a type of magical treasure, right? But why are their names rted to a magical treasure?


    True Monarch Fifth Cultivator of True Virtue continued with his exnation, "This primordial treasure is called ’Nine Virtues Phoenix Saber’, and there are ’nine transformation seals’ on its de. After each transformation, the strength of the de would increase by one Stage. When I obtained the ’Nine Virtues Phoenix Saber’ from the Fourth Cultivator of True Virtue, it had already undergone five transformations. Afterward, I refined it until the number of transformations reached six. Afterpleting my mission, I passed it to the Sixth Cultivator of True Virtue, giving them the task to keep refining the saber."


    In the video, the young Venerable Seventh Cultivator of True Virtue said, "In other words, after inheriting the dao name ’Seventh Cultivator of True Virtue’, I’ll inherit the ’Nine Virtues Phoenix Saber’ as well. Then, I’ll keep refining it, and once I seed, I’ll pass it to the ’Eighth Cultivator of True Virtue’?"


    "Yeah, that’s it." True Monarch Fifth Cultivator of True Virtue nodded and said, "Such being the case, do you want to sign a contract with me? After signing the contract, the legendary primordial treasure ’Nine Virtues Phoenix Saber’ would be yours!"


    "No," Venerable Seventh Cultivator of True Virtue refused and said, "After inheriting the ’Seventh Cultivator of True Virtue’ dao name, not only I would have to spent a lot of effort to refine the Nine Virtues Phoenix Saber, but I would also bear its restriction... and someday in the future, I would have to hand it over to someone else? How does any of it benefit me?"


    "Hehe, if there weren’t enough benefits to move the heart of a cultivator, how could they ept to inherit the Nine Virtues Phoenix Saber willingly?" True Monarch Fifth Cultivator of True Virtue said with augh.


    "After you officially inherit the Nine Virtues Phoenix Saber, you will obtain a volume of the ?Nine Transformations Phoenix Technique?. It’s aplete cultivation technique, without a single missing part, that can allow you to the reach the Ninth Stage Tribtion Transcender Realm! In addition, you will inherit the cultivation-rted experiences and other observations of the previous owners of the Nine Virtues Phoenix Saber."


    One could say that the road to the peak would open for whomever got their hands on the Nine Virtues Phoenix Saber.


    True Monarch Fifth Cultivator of True Virtue sighed and said, "As you know, it’s impossible for us to avoid dealing with the heavenly tribtion once we start practicing. The heavenly tribtion is merciless, and just one small mistake while trying to transcend the heavenly tribtion is enough to cause the mes of tribtion to seep into one’s body, dooming them to die."


    In the video, the young Venerable Seventh Cultivator of True Virtue silently nodded.


    The heavenly tribtion was a fearful and unavoidable opponent that all the cultivators had to face on the road to cultivation. Through the ages, at least 25% of the cultivators didn’t die of old age, but perished under the might of the heavenly tribtion.


    "If you be the owner of the primordial treasure ’Nine Virtues Phoenix Saber’, you won’t die even if you fail to transcend the tribtion. Of course, although they won’t die, the owner of the Nine Virtues Phoenix Saber must pay a price to conceal from the Wielder of the Will the fact that they are still alive..."


    As soon as True Monarch Fifth Cultivator of True Virtue said these words, Song Shuhang immediately understood what the ’price’ was.


    The price should be something simr to what the jade white lion Fourth Cultivator of True Virtue had to pay. He received the protection of the Nine Virtues Phoenix Saber, but his cultivation realm was restricted, and he became something akin to a ’clone’.


    However, it was still better than dying directly.


    "But you don’t have to worry. Even if you end up paying the price, there is still a way to redeem it," True Monarch Fifth Cultivator of True Virtue said with a smile.
