"To exchange for Fire Snake Fruit, you need 500,000 Sect Contribution. Our Sage-Proving Mountain Treasure Pavilion only has eight Fire Snake Fruits."
"I wonder if I can exchange this Medicinal Pills for it?"
Lu Changsheng took out a Purple-Gold Eight Trigrams Gourd containing Fourteenth-Grade Immortal Pill called the "True Martial Fire Essence Pill".
The disciple of Sage-Proving Mountain suspiciously took the Purple-Gold Eight Trigrams Gourd, opened the wooden stopper, and the scorching heat of the True Martial Fire Essence Pill rushed towards him, almost suffocating the Sage-Proving Mountain disciple who was at the Dao Integration Realm!
The Elders and disciples of the Treasure Pavilion all looked over at the same time.
The commotion caused by the Fourteenth-Grade Immortal Pill is no small matter.
The Elders of the Treasure Pavilion personally came to appraise the value of the True Martial Fire Essence Pill.
"This is Fourteenth-Grade Immortal Pill — the True Martial Fire Essence Pill. It's more than enough to exchange for eight Fire Snake Fruits. Not only that, you can also choose some other treasures."
The Elders of the Treasure Pavilion exchanged eight Grade 12 Fire Snake Fruits for one Fourteenth Grade True Martial Fire Essence Pill from Lu Changsheng, getting a great deal. However, their consciences were not clear, so they let Lu Changsheng choose several other treasures.
Lu Changsheng put away the Fire Snake Fruit.
What Lu Changsheng valued was not the Fire Snake Fruit itself, but the heavenly materials and earthly treasures that might be returned when the Fire Snake Fruit was given as a reward.
Lu Changsheng tried his best to reward his disciples with various things, hoping to get something in return.
"This stone..."
Lu Changsheng then set his sights on a stone stained with demonic blood.
Even a single drop of demonic blood emitted Devil Qi that sent chills down Lu Changsheng's spine.
The Devil Qi in this stone is suitable for Dugu Aotian's cultivation.
The Elder of the Treasure Pavilion said, "This is a stone stained with a drop of demonic blood from High Antiquity Great Demon. It is said that the sect Sect Master accidentally found it in the Nine Serenities Forbidden Land. Although it is only a drop of blood and has been worn down by countless years, it still possesses astonishing Devil Qi. Ordinary Xiuzhenzhe should not use this treasure, otherwise their Dao heart will be eroded by the Devil Qi. This item is not a common heavenly materials and earthly treasures, therefore its grade cannot be classified."
"Can I exchange three True Martial Fire Essence Pills?"
"This..."
Five.
"Longevity Daoist, this..."
Ten.
"That's enough, that's enough."
The Elder of the Treasure Pavilion rubbed his hands together and grinned foolishly.
Lu Changsheng's offer of three True Martial Fire Essence Pills had already surprised him, but before he could even finish speaking, Lu Changsheng mentioned ten True Martial Fire Essence Pills. He couldn't have been happier and immediately agreed.
Although Demon Bloodstones are rare, only those with special Demon Bodies can use them. Xiuzhenzhe of the Sage-Proving Mountain used Demon Bloodstones Demon Bloodstone, it backfired. The Demon Bloodstones had been idle for a long time. Lu Changsheng exchanged them for ten True Martial Fire Essence Pills, and the Treasure Pavilion couldn't get them.
Lu Changsheng didn't care about these few Immortal Pill; he had plenty of them.
Lu Changsheng had never seen the Demon Bloodstone before, so exchanging it for it would definitely not be a loss.
This is a treasure brought from the Nine Serenities Forbidden Land.
Lu Changsheng used his Xuanqing True Qi to envelop the Demon Bloodstone and put it into the Purple-Gold Eight Trigrams Gourd.

Lu Changsheng exchanged for another batch of treasures he had never seen before, and then returned to Changqing Cave.
Lu Changsheng summoned Lu Qinglian and gave Lu Qinglian Body-Tempering Potion.
Lu Qinglian began cultivating the Saint-tier High-grade Cultivation Method, the Three Thousand Gods and Devils Visualization Method.
After the Martial King Divine Physique absorbed the Body-Tempering Potion, Lu Changsheng took out the Fire Snake Fruit and gave it to Lu Qinglian as a snack.
Lu Qinglian excitedly ate the Fire Snake Fruit.
The Fire Essence power of the Fire Snake Fruit surged forth and was once again absorbed by the Martial King Divine Physique.
[Ding! You have rewarded your Disciple Lu Qinglian with a Grade 12 heavenly materials and earthly treasures, the "Fire Snake Fruit," and received a reward equal to one hundred million times the Disciple-Teaching Rebate: Sixteenth Grade heavenly materials and earthly treasures, the "Phoenix Fruit."]
[Today's Disciple-Teaching Rebate count -1.]
[Phoenix Fruit: Grown in the habitat of Phoenixes, it absorbs some of the Phoenix's aura. Extremely yang in nature, it is suitable for Xiuzhenzhe Fire Spirit Roots, allowing their True Qi to merge with the Phoenix's fire.]
Hundred-Millionfold Return?
Lu Changsheng was stunned.
The probability of triggering Hundred-Millionfold Return is extremely low, but this time it was unexpectedly triggered. A mere 12th-grade heavenly materials and earthly treasures was returned as a Sixteenth Grade heavenly materials and earthly treasures!
Phoenix Fruit is a Sixteenth Grade heavenly materials and earthly treasures. Lu Changsheng didn't know when he would bestow it upon his disciple in Disciple-Teaching Rebate, so he might as well give it to Lu Qinglian in advance.
The Phoenix Fruit seems to enhance Lu Qinglian's Fire Lotus True Qi.
The Fire Lotus True Qi is quite strange; it's a special True Qi that Lu Qinglian comprehended at Fire Lotus Peak, and even Lu Changsheng's Innate Dao Body couldn't cultivate it.
Lu Changsheng is currently cultivating the Limitless Profound Pure Dao of Qingyue Immortal Maiden, and has refined Xuanqing True Qi, which also carries Taiqing purple qi Xuanqing True Qi.
Lu Changsheng took out the scorching Phoenix Fruit, from which the faint shadow of Phoenix could be seen.
Lu Qinglian saw the Phoenix Fruit and wiped the drool from the corner of her mouth.
Phoenix Fruit is an extremely rare and precious heavenly materials and earthly treasures, with an astonishing grade of Sixteenth Grade.
A grade sixteen rare and precious material is already a treasure of the sacred mountain sect.
"This item is extraordinary; it needs to be refined and cannot be processed directly..."
Just as Lu Changsheng was about to explain the situation, Lu Qinglian had already swallowed the Sixteenth Grade Phoenix Fruit in one gulp.
Even Lu Changsheng was startled.
These two disciples, Lu Qinglian and Ning Qianqian, consume all sorts of heavenly materials and earthly treasures, completely disregarding whether they can withstand the effects of the medicine.
After swallowing the Phoenix Fruit, the immense Phoenix Fire Essence filled her meridians, causing Lu Qinglian's face to turn bright red, as if her meridians were about to be torn apart by the terrifying medicinal power.
Lu Changsheng quickly used his Xuanqing True Qi to help Lu Qinglian refine the astonishing Phoenix Fire Essence.
"Use your Fire Lotus True Qi to refine the Phoenix Fire Essence."
Lu Changsheng worked hard to maintain the balance of True Qi within Lu Qinglian's body, giving Lu Qinglian time to refine the Phoenix Fruit.
Lu Qinglian quickly circulated her Fire Lotus True Qi. The Phoenix Fire Essence was absorbed by her Fire Lotus True Qi, which gradually turned golden-red and formed new True Qi.

"What amazing True Qi!"
Lu Changsheng was secretly astonished to find that the Phoenix Fire Lotus True Qi could even burn his Three Souls and Seven Spirits.
The Phoenix Fruit truly lived up to its reputation as Sixteenth Grade heavenly materials and earthly treasures, allowing a trace of Phoenix True Fire to be infused into the Fire Lotus True Qi, transforming it into Phoenix Fire Lotus True Qi Fire Lotus True Qi.
Lu Qinglian also possesses the Eighteenth-Rank Karmic Fire Red Lotus as her main Law Treasure.
Once Lu Qinglian's realm advances to the Half-Step Great Luo Golden Immortal, Lu Changsheng can bestow upon Lu Qinglian the Eighteen-Petal Merit Golden Lotus. At that time, Lu Qinglian will be able to manipulate the Eighteenth-Rank Karmic Fire Red Lotus and the Eighteen-Petal Merit Golden Lotus with her Phoenix Fire Lotus True Qi, possessing boundless Law Power. She will likely be hard-pressed to find an opponent in the Half-Step Great Luo Golden Immortal Realm.
With Lu Changsheng's help, Lu Qinglian spent three days and three nights completely digesting the Phoenix Fruit, and the Phoenix Fire Lotus True Qi took shape.
Lu Qinglian opened her palm, and a golden-red Fire Lotus appeared in her hand, with the faint shadow of Phoenix soaring within.
If this Phoenix Fire Lotus were to hit a master of the Heavenly Immortal Realm, the opponent would be in serious trouble.
"Master, are there any more of these fruits?"
Lu Qinglian stopped practicing her internal energy, the Phoenix Fire Lotus disappeared, and she stared longingly at Lu Changsheng.
The Phoenix Fruit was delicious, and she wanted to eat another one.
Lu Changsheng rolled his eyes. Did they really think a Sixteenth Grade Phoenix Fruit was just an ordinary fruit?
The reward of a 12th-grade Fire Snake Fruit triggered Hundred-Millionfold Return, which was how the Phoenix Fruit was obtained.
"Master has run out of Phoenix Fruits. Here are two Fire Snake Fruits for you. Go and cultivate." Lu Changsheng used two Fire Snake Fruits to brush him off.
In any case, Lu Qinglian eating the Fire Snake Fruit wasn't a waste of rare heavenly materials and earthly treasures; rather, it would genuinely transform into cultivation, making her Martial King Divine Physique even stronger.
Lu Qinglian's treatment was not much different from that of the Saint and Saintess of the Holy Lands.
[Ding! You have rewarded your Disciple Lu Qinglian with a Grade 12 heavenly materials and earthly treasures, the "Fire Snake Fruit," and have received a 30x reward for Disciple-Teaching Rebate: Thirteenth Grade heavenly materials and earthly treasures "Earth Fire Fruit."]
[Ding! You have rewarded your Disciple Lu Qinglian with a Grade 12 heavenly materials and earthly treasures, the "Fire Snake Fruit," and have received a 30x reward for Disciple-Teaching Rebate: Thirteenth Grade heavenly materials and earthly treasures "Earth Fire Fruit."]
[Earth Fire Fruit: A rare fruit that grows beside Earth Fire, absorbing its Earth Fire power. It contains Fire Poison and is not recommended for use by those Xiuzhenzhe do not have Fire Spirit Root.]
Two Fire Snake Fruits will be awarded, but this time the return will only be thirty times the original amount.
It seems that the Hundred-Millionfold Return has exhausted all my good karma today.
Thirteenth Grade Earth Fire Fruits are bestowed upon disciples, and there are also rewards for Disciple-Teaching Rebate.
"Oh, right, I also have an Earth Fire Fruit here."
Lu Changsheng wanted to know what rewards the system would return if he were granted the Earth Fire Fruit.
[Ding! You have rewarded your Disciple Lu Qinglian with the Thirteenth Grade heavenly materials and earthly treasures "Earth Fire Fruit," and received a 100x reward for Disciple-Teaching Rebate: the Fourteenth Grade heavenly materials and earthly treasures "Earth Core Fruit."]
[Earth Core Fruit: A rare fruit that grows at the center of the Earth Fire, absorbing a large amount of the Earth Fire power. It contains Fire Poison, and is not recommended for use by Xiuzhenzhe do not have Fire Spirit Root.]
It seems that the Fire Snake Fruit, Earth Fire Fruit, and Earth Core Fruit are all of the same type of heavenly materials and earthly treasures, which can enhance the Spiritual Qi of cultivators with Fire Spirit Roots.
Of course, none of these spiritual fruits are as good as the Phoenix Fruit, which can directly transform the Fire Lotus True Qi.
"Hehe, thank you, Master."
Lu Qinglian held two Fire Snake Fruits and one Earth Fire Fruit, eating them as she walked out.

"Qianqian, come out."
Lu Changsheng noticed his eighth Disciple Ning Qianqian, hiding to the side, drooling almost dripping onto the ground, so he called Ning Qianqian out.
"Master found out."
Ning Qianqian stuck out her tongue and sat obediently in front of Lu Changsheng, waiting for her master's reward.
Lu Changsheng had no choice but to give Ning Qianqian two Fire Snake Fruits and one Earth Fire Fruit.
The system returned two Earth Fire Fruits and one Earth Core Fruit.
Phoenix Fruit is, after all, a Sixteenth Grade heavenly materials and earthly treasures, and the probability of it being returned is extremely low.
These two gluttonous Disciple are truly money-devouring beasts; they've already consumed quite a few heavenly materials and earthly treasures.
This also means that Lu Qinglian and Ning Qianqian have excellent foundations and their future achievements are limitless.
After dismissing Ning Qianqian, Lu Changsheng summoned his Ninth Disciple, Dugu Aotian.
Lu Changsheng obtained a Demon Bloodstone from the Treasure Pavilion of Sage-Proving Mountain and was eager to know what treasures he could get in return for gifting the Demon Bloodstone.
"This Devil Qi is exceptionally pure; it is the blood of High Antiquity Great Demon."
Dugu Aotian obtained the Demon Bloodstone and was also shocked by its pure Devil Qi.
The fact that a single drop of demonic blood possesses such Law Power makes it hard to imagine what kind of being the owner of that blood must be.
[Ding! You have bestowed the "Demon Bloodstone" upon your Disciple Dugu Aotian, receiving an eight million times reward for Disciple-Teaching Rebate: "Demon Marshal Blood".]
[Demon Marshal Blood: A drop of demon blood from High Antiquity Demon Marshal.]
As expected, the Demon Bloodstone was extraordinary; this time, the system returned the Demon Marshal Blood.
A Purple-Gold Eight Trigrams Gourd sealed with Talisman appeared inside Lu Changsheng's body, containing only a drop of demonic blood.
However, this drop of demonic blood was different from the demonic blood on the Demon Bloodstone that had been consumed over countless years; it was basically intact and extremely terrifying.
Lu Changsheng dared not tear open the Talisman, otherwise this drop of demonic blood might erode Lu Changsheng's Dantian Qi Sea.
"Demon Marshal?"
Upon learning the origin of this drop of demonic blood, Lu Changsheng secretly memorized the name of this High Antiquity Great Expert.
Are you confident you can refine the demonic blood from the Demon Bloodstone?
Lu Changsheng worried that Dugu Aotian would not be able to withstand the power of the demonic blood.
"Why not give it a try?"
Dugu Aotian used his Devil Cultivation Method to extract the demonic blood from the Demon Bloodstone.
A tiny drop of demonic blood was extracted by Dugu Aotian and integrated into his body.
Dugu Aotian let out a low growl, his eyes bloodshot.
Although the Demon Bloodstone's blood of the Demon Marshal has endured countless years, its residual demonic power remains terrifying. Even Dugu Aotian, with his initial cultivation at the Heavenly Immortal Realm, nearly suffered Qi Deviation.

Lu Changsheng quickly used his Profound Clear Qi to help Dugu Aotian stabilize his mind.
Not only that, Lu Changsheng also took out the "Ice Lotus Immortal Dew," Thirteenth Grade heavenly materials and earthly treasures given to him by Shangguan Zhao'er, to help Dugu Aotian maintain his original mind and avoid Qi Deviation.
Ice Lotus Immortal Dew on Dugu Aotian's forehead, creating ripples. Dugu Aotian's crimson eyes gradually regained their clarity, and he began to refine the demonic blood.
The fragments of the Demon Marshal's essence within the Demon Blood were absorbed by Dugu Aotian, making Dugu Aotian's Devil Qi even stronger.
While helping Dugu Aotian stabilize his Dao heart, Lu Changsheng probed the fragment of the Demon Marshal's origin contained in this small drop of demon blood.
Lu Changsheng's Divine Sense seemed to enter Savage Wilderness, where an extremely majestic demonic body stood between Heaven and Earth, waving Demon Banner that blotted out the sky, with billions of Demonic Shadows flickering and the stars in the sky shattering.
This demonic figure looked at Lu Changsheng, but before Lu Changsheng could see its appearance clearly, Lu Changsheng was already destroyed by its gaze!
"What's going on? How can there be such a terrifying being? Could this figure that spans the heavens be the master of the demonic blood?"
Lu Changsheng's Divine Sense returned to the real world; his Daoist Robe was already soaked with sweat.
The High Antiquity powerful being known as the Demon Marshal commands billions of Demonic Shadows, which is truly terrifying. He may be the most powerful being Lu Changsheng has ever encountered.
The Demon Bloodstone originated from the Nine Nether Nine Serenities Forbidden Land. Could it be that the Demon Marshal perished there?
Lu Changsheng shook his head.
Such Great Expert are not a concern for Lu Changsheng.
Dugu Aotian absorbed the fragments of the Demon Marshal's origin, making his Devil Qi even stronger. The shadow of the Devil Ancestor appeared above Changqing Cave, looking down upon all living beings.
Lu Changsheng had set up a magic array in advance to shield the aura of Changqing Cave.
Dugu Aotian is, after all, Devil Cultivator. If the commotion he causes is too alarming, it will inevitably lead to unnecessary trouble.
At the Palace of Seeking the Worthy, Elder Qian, along with his disciples, personally welcomed the disciples from the High Antiquity Han Clan who had come to the Sage-Proving Mountain for training.
"Elder Han, your cave abode is the Bone Spirit Cave of Canglong Peak."
Elder Qian was trying to curry favor with the other party.
Han Jie, a descendant of the High Antiquity Han Clan, is now Half-Step Great Luo Golden Immortal with countless Law Treasures. He has come to the Sage-Proving Mountain for training.
If this leads to a good relationship with the High Antiquity Han Clan, it would be a good thing for Sage-Proving Mountain.
"My purpose in coming here is to Sage-Proving Mountain's wondrous treasure— the Enlightenment Tea —and to use it to ascend to the Great Luo Golden Immortal Realm in one fell swoop."
Relying on his status as a disciple of the High Antiquity Cultivation Aristocratic Clan, Han Jie spoke frankly to Elder Qian.
He was expelled from the Sects by Qingyue Immortal Maiden of Jinglong Immortal Temple. He returned to his Lineage and complained to the ancestor of his branch. He successfully gained the ancestor's support and came to Sage-Proving Mountain to comprehend the Dao.
Elder Qian said, "Enlightenment Tea is extremely rare. Unless you become Grand Supreme Elders of our Sage-Proving Mountain and win the upcoming Nine-Pulse Martial Assembly, you will not be able to obtain a single Enlightenment Tea Leaf."
"I will receive this Enlightenment Tea Leaf."
Han Jie was confident that as long as he successfully entered the Great Luo Golden Immortal Realm, he would eventually return to Jinglong Mountain to take revenge, and it would be useless even if Lu Changsheng fled to the ends of the earth.
Some people died, but they weren't completely dead...
