Fortune Trait: Nirvana Flame Seed

After Qing Luo left, Mu Yunxue turned her head, her clear, cold eyes looking at Lu Yang, and asked softly, "Do you need snake venom?"

Lu Yang said seriously, "I don't need it, but Yingying is Alchemist, and the venom of a Nascent Soul Realm snake demon is a very good material for alchemy. Since I've encountered it, I naturally have to consider it for Yingying's sake."

Upon hearing this, a look of realization flashed in Mu Yunxue's eyes.

She paused for a moment, then nodded silently. "Mm."

Then she whispered, "Is it Lin Ying? You're so good to her."

Lu Yang raised an eyebrow at Mu Yunxue and chuckled, "I'm good to Senior Sister Mu too, and I'll always be thinking of you."

Mu Yunxue pursed her cherry lips, glanced at him, then looked away slightly, saying nothing more.

The sky-blue hair ribbon was gently lifted by the warm breeze in the valley, brushing past the shoulder of her plain white robe. Her expression remained calm on her snow-white profile, though a faint pink tinge seemed to flash briefly at the base of her ears.

Just then, Lu Qingtong flew back with Shen Hongyu.

Lu Qingtong landed in front of Lu Yang, her delicate, pretty face filled with pride and smugness.

She presented the Nine-Mark Vermilion Flame Fruit to Lu Yang as if it were a precious treasure, her childish voice filled with excitement. "Young Master, Young Master! Look! I brought this fruit back!"

The crimson fruit was held in her chubby little hands, the nine golden lines on its skin still slowly flowing, and a rich, exotic fragrance wafted out.

Lu Yang felt a warm current surge through his body after just one sniff.

Lu Yang affectionately patted Lu Qingtong's head, his fingertips tracing her soft golden hair, and praised, "Qingtong is wonderful!"

Lu Qingtong chuckled, her large, blue eyes curving into two crescent moons. "Hehe~ I think so too!"

Watching this scene, Shen Hongyu felt a strange, indescribable feeling welling up inside her.

A powerful demon at the peak of the Nascent Soul Perfection actually acted coquettishly and tried to curry favor with a Late Qi Refining cultivator...

This scene is too unreal.

Lu Yang put the Nine-Mark Vermilion Flame Fruit into his Storage Ring, then looked at Shen Hongyu who was following behind Lu Qingtong.

He was originally planning to find an opportunity to get Shen Hongyu's contact information.

I never expected that they would come over on their own initiative.

Isn't that a coincidence?

Shen Hongyu snapped out of her reverie, a bright smile appearing on her pretty face. She cupped her hands and said, "Hello, young friend, my name is Shen Hongyu."

Lu Yang smiled and returned the greeting, "So you're Senior Shen. Hello, my name is Lu Yang."

Shen Hongyu was a straightforward person, and she didn't beat around the bush, getting straight to the point. "Young friend Lu, I want to trade with you for this Nine-Mark Vermilion Flame Fruit. I can tell you're not Fire Dao cultivator, but rather specialize in Metal Dao and Sword Dao, right? I can use Metal Dao and Sword Dao treasures to trade with you. Or you can state your conditions."

Lu Yang raised an eyebrow, surprised that Shen Hongyu was so straightforward, without uttering a single unnecessary word.

This Nine-Mark Vermilion Flame Fruit is no ordinary heavenly materials and earthly treasures.

This is a priceless treasure that can increase the success rate of breaking through to the Spirit Transformation. Ordinary treasures probably wouldn't even qualify for trading, right?

However... this Nine-Mark Vermilion Flame Fruit isn't really of much use to him right now.

If Lu Yang had any of his consorts who specialized in Fire Dao, he definitely wouldn't trade them away.

However, since none of his concubines cultivated the Fire Dao, keeping them around was indeed of little use.

If you can get some useful and good stuff in return, then it's not a bad deal.

Moreover, the woman in front of them, just like Qing Luo from before, meets the system's criteria for a beautiful woman.

A successful transaction can also increase favorability.

Why not?

Lu Yang smiled and asked, "Senior Shen, what kind of transaction do you plan to use?"

Shen Hongyu had clearly already planned this out. She immediately said, "I don't have any treasures like the Nine-Mark Vermilion Flame Fruit that can increase the chances of a breakthrough, but I do have Spirit Treasures of the Metal Dao and Sword Dao that I can exchange. Besides that, I also have several kinds of rare and heavenly materials and earthly treasures the Metal Dao and Sword Dao paths, some for refining weapons and some for refining pills, all of which are Nascent Soul Realm heavenly materials and earthly treasures. I can exchange several treasures with you."

She paused, her bright eyes fixed on Lu Yang, and said sincerely, "Or, if you need anything, just tell me, and I'll try my best to find a solution!"

Lu Yang pondered for a moment before asking, "Do you have any Cultivation Method in the Metal Dao or the Sword Dao? They must be at the Heaven Grade."

Heaven Grade Cultivation Method are extremely rare and precious, and are generally only found in Immortal Sect Holy Lands.

Lu Yang needs this quality of Cultivation Method because he still has Cultivation Method Synthesis Cards in his possession.

If there are Heaven Grade Cultivation Method, they can be used as materials for synthesis.

The Nine-Mark Vermilion Flame Fruit is no less valuable than Heaven Grade Cultivation Method, and may even be more valuable.

Lu Yang's exchange of the Nine-Mark Vermilion Flame Fruit for Heaven Grade Cultivation Method doesn't count as taking advantage of Shen Hongyu.

Hearing Lu Yang's words, Shen Hongyu frowned and said with some regret, "In the Canglan Realm, Heaven Grade Cultivation Method are extremely rare. If you need Fire Dao Cultivation Method, I do have Heaven Grade. However, Metal Dao and Sword Dao Cultivation Method... I really can't provide them."

Lu Yang shook his head, somewhat disappointed, "I'm not really interested in the other things you mentioned."

He's only at the Qi Refining Realm now, so he has no need for Spirit Treasures.

Moreover, he also possesses Supreme-Grade Spirit Treasures like the Geng Metal Sword Essence Pearl.

As for heavenly materials and earthly treasures... even those at the Nascent Soul Realm heavenly materials and earthly treasures are beyond his reach.

The only thing he needs right now is Cultivation Method.

Upon hearing this, Shen Hongyu immediately became anxious.

She had finally encountered a supreme treasure of Fire Dao, the Nine-Mark Vermilion Flame Fruit. If she missed this opportunity because she couldn't offer what the other party wanted, she would probably regret it for a long time after she returned!

She quickly said, "Is there anything else you need? I have some other heavenly materials and earthly treasures here, not just those of the Metal Dao and Sword Dao paths, but also those of other major paths!"

Seeing Shen Hongyu's anxious expression, Lu Yang chuckled softly and said in a calm tone, "How about this, let's exchange telepathic marks first. If I think of anything I need later, I'll contact you. Right now, there's really nothing I need."

Upon hearing this, Shen Hongyu breathed a sigh of relief.

Since Lu Yang didn't directly refuse, she still had a chance!

She nodded quickly. "No problem!"

As she spoke, Shen Hongyu took out Sound Transmission Jade Token and exchanged communication marks with Lu Yang.

After the exchange was completed, Lu Yang's panel reappeared.

[Host has successfully added Shen Hongyu's contact information and received the following reward: 2 million Mid-Grade Spirit Stones, Fortune Trait: Nirvana Flame Seed]

Lu Yang glanced at the information on the panel, a hint of joy rising in his heart.

A whopping 2 million Mid-Grade Spirit Stones!

There are twice as many as the Qing Luo from before!

This is probably because Shen Hongyu's rating is slightly higher than Qing Luo's, and her cultivation level is also stronger.

Lu Yang guessed that Shen Hongyu's background and resources were probably much stronger than Qing Luo's.

That's why the reward for adding Shen Hongyu's contact information is so generous.

As for what Fortune Trait this Nirvana Flame Seed was, Lu Yang had no idea.

Same as before, I'll check later.

Even after the exchange, Shen Hongyu was still somewhat uneasy, and said earnestly, "Young friend Lu, you mustn't sell this Nine-Mark Vermilion Flame Fruit now! I'll go back and discuss it with my elders, and see if there are any suitable treasures for you. If I find any, I'll contact you immediately!"

Lu Yang glanced at Shen Hongyu with some surprise.

This female cultivator is a top-tier expert at the Nascent Soul Perfection, yet she has elders?

Her elders must be Spirit Transformation cultivators, right?

Judging from the way Shen Hongyu spoke, she didn't seem like a cultivator from Immortal Sect Holy Land.

Could they be from some reclusive Aristocratic Clan?

Or perhaps it comes from one of the other major domains?

Lu Yang pondered this in his heart, but didn't pay much attention to it.

Surely the other party wouldn't send their own elders to steal his things, would they?

Of course, if Shen Hongyu really did that, Lu Yang wouldn't be afraid.

He nodded, his tone calm. "No problem."

Shen Hongyu pressed further, "Then where should I look for you?"

Lu Yang smiled and said, "I usually cultivate at the Golden Rainbow Sword Sect in Qin Province."

Golden Rainbow Sword Sect...

Shen Hongyu silently repeated the name in her heart.

She wasn't familiar with this sect, but since it was a force from Qin Province, finding it shouldn't be difficult.

She nodded, a serious expression appearing on her sharp and spirited face. "I understand."

Having said that, she gracefully cupped her hands in Fire Dao, "In that case, I won't disturb you any longer, young friend. I have other matters to attend to, so I'll take my leave first!"

She plans to go back and talk to her elders first, to see if she can find any leverage in the deal.

In addition, she also wanted to ask her elders if they knew this guy named Lu Yang.

Logically speaking, a young person with such a background and such great talent should not be unknown in the entire Canglan Realm.

Regardless, shouldn't his elders know about him?

Perhaps we can cultivate our relationship a bit then, which would make the transaction more secure.

Lu Yang did not try to stop Shen Hongyu. After they said their goodbyes, a phoenix cry rang out from within Shen Hongyu's body.

A flash of golden flames enveloped her, and she transformed into a streak of light that streaked across the sky, disappearing into the horizon in the blink of an eye.

At this moment, Wang Da had already returned carrying the corpse of the Fire-Treading Savage Bull.

He held the corpse firmly in his fiery giant hand. The shrunken bull's body was only about three zhang long, but the remaining aura of the Nascent Soul level Demon Beast was still so strong that it was terrifying.

The charred fur still bore the marks of the Nine Yang Heaven-Burning Seal's scorching, with occasional wisps of embers flashing across the corpse's surface.

Lu Yang nodded in satisfaction and put the corpse of the Fire-Treading Savage Bull into his Storage Ring.

No way! This is the corpse of the Nascent Soul Realm stage transformed demon, its entire body is a treasure!

Fur and bones can be used to refine Law Treasure, while flesh and Essence Blood can be used to refine Spirit Cuisine and are also excellent materials for alchemy.

Even if they don't need it themselves, taking it back to the sect would be a huge contribution.

It certainly shouldn't be wasted.

After collecting the corpse of the Fire-Treading Savage Bull, Lu Yang glanced at the group of transformed demons and human cultivators still suspended in mid-air in the distance, and smiled kindly at them.

His smile was gentle and harmless, as if he were not the one who had just ordered the seizure of the Nine-Mark Vermilion Flame Fruit.

He then turned to Mu Yunxue beside him and said softly, "Senior Sister Mu, let's go back and continue our journey."

Mu Yunxue nodded silently. "Mm."

As she watched Lu Yang and Shen Hongyu exchange telepathic tokens, she inexplicably thought of the first time she and Shen Hongyu met, when they also exchanged telepathic tokens.

Those two seniors were indeed stunningly beautiful.

They returned to the ancient bronze chariot, and the Cloud Flood Dragons that had been lying prone in the air simultaneously raised their heads and let out a long, drawn-out roar.

The fifty-foot-long dragon's body stretched out gracefully, and the nine bronze ropes instantly taut and straightened.

The Cloud Flood Dragons, with their four claws, stepped on the clouds, pulling the ancient and noble bronze chariot into the air with ease. The array patterns on the nine-layered canopy once again lit up with a soft, pale golden light.

The cloud vehicle turned around and headed towards Jing Province.

Only when the Nine Splendors Cloud Chariot disappeared into the horizon did all the Nascent Soul Realm experts present finally relax.

Those few powerful demons who had transformed into human form felt as if they had just taken a trip through the gates of hell.

They looked at each other, and each saw in the other's eyes the relief of surviving a disaster.
