Chapter 752

== World Piercing Jade Talisman ==
Long Chen meets Shui Wuhen and Shui Yuncong.
Yuncong wants the Heavenly Water Pearl and wished to exchange the World Piercing Jade Talisman for it. It allows travel to the Spirit World, where the Forest God had come from.
Shui Wuhen tells LC that Shui Yuncong traded the Shui family's Nine Yang Battle Halberd to get the talisman.
Shui Wuhen was saying this to make sure Long Chen was careful. He had to be clear about everything, because once Shui Guanzhi obtained the Heavenly Water Pearl, the chance of him becoming a rank three Celestial was extremely high. And for the Shui family, they definitely wouldn't make an investment for money.
If Shui Guanzhi advanced to become a rank three Celestial, then once they entered the Immemorial Path, the first person he would kill was definitely Long Chen.
Only 2 people could use the talisman.
Long Chen couldn't help being disappointed. If only two people could use it, then he couldn't bring Tang Wan-er and find her a good housepet too. Currently, their housepets could only be used as mounts. They weren't strong enough to fight alongside them anymore.
On the border of the Phoenix Cry Empire, in a nameless village, he had seen the forest divinity break through the void to return to the Spirit World. And from that spatial channel, he had seen a shocking scene.
There were huge, ancient trees, birds as large as mountains, and countless precious beasts. There would definitely be powerful Magical Beasts to capture there.
First, Meng Qi needed a powerful Magical Beast to protect herself. Otherwise, he really would worry a great deal for her. Although her soul energy was powerful, figures as important as Celestials would all be given soul items to protect themselves if their own Spiritual Strength wasn't strong enough.
Second, Long Chen also needed to go to the Spirit World to find some trees that could hold more life energy to replace his current trees. Otherwise, he would be suppressed when fighting against Celestials in the future.
Third, he wanted to see if he could find some clues about the forest divinity. Last time, the divine life drops it had given Long Chen had saved him and the people by his side several times. That debt was enormous, and he had to find some way to return it.

First LC asks if Shui Yuncong himself ever went to the spirit world. He did not.
"Second, even if I can get there safely, the legends say that the forest there is so huge that it swallows the sky, and that huge beasts roam the land. Won't we find it difficult to take a single step in any direction?" continued Long Chen.
"Third, even if there aren't any Magical Beasts blocking our path and everything goes smoothly, do you think a powerful Magical Beast will allow itself to be captured by us as easily as a pig? In just a month's time, we have to look for and capture powerful Magical Beasts, and then also return to our original location. Just how high do you think our chances are?
"If we aren't able to capture any powerful Magical Beast, it would be better for us to just capture a few weaker Magical Beasts in this world. Then, I won't have to waste this Heavenly Water Pearl.
"So, respected family head, tell me, with your wisdom, just how big do you think my heart would have to be to agree to your proposal?" asked Long Chen.
Shui Yuncong was immediately speechless. According to Long Chen's analysis, it truly seemed like he was the only one losing out.
Shui Yuncong immediately thought of Long Chen's heaven-defying luck. "Then let me hear your suggestion!"
"My suggestion is very simple. I will exchange with you," said Long Chen, causing Shui Yuncong to be delighted.
"But, you have to pay me an additional three million middle grade spirit stones."
Shui Yuncong's smile disappeared.
