Chapter 2871: Transaction with the Treasure

With the support from Holy Dragon City, Lu Ye can rest assured about his practice. In just three months, his strength has been slowly improving.

Thanks to his actions, the situation of Taichu Wutong is now much better. Although the corrosive force accumulated over the years is difficult to burn out because the treasure is too large, it is no longer at risk of falling into a deep sleep at any time.

Under such circumstances, Taichu Wutong will be worry-free for at least ten thousand years.

In the tree hole, Lu Ye was sitting cross-legged and practicing, when he suddenly became aware of something. When he opened his eyes, he saw Taichu Wutong appear and stand in front of him.

"Old Tree!" Lu Ye quickly stood up and saluted.

Taichu Wutong raised his hand and said, "You go about your business. I just came to take a look."

Upon hearing this, Lu Ye sat down again and continued to carve the Dao marks and nourish the fang sword.

After a while, he found that Taichu Wutong was still standing in front of him, so he couldn't help but ask, "Does Tree Master have something to ask me?"

Taichu Wutong opened his mouth and sighed, looking as if he wanted to say something but hesitated.

Lu Ye said: "If you have any problem, please feel free to tell me. I will never refuse to help you if I can."

Taichu Wutong sighed again, and then he spoke: "It's like this, I have some old friends, recently there are a few who heard that I got rid of the erosion state, and wanted to ask me for advice on the method, but you and I know my situation, there is no method to tell, and I can't tell them directly, but they begged me..."

Hearing this, Lu Ye immediately understood: "Old Shu wants me to help them?"

At the same time, I was curious. How did Taichu Wutong get to know him? But since he was an old friend, he must have lived for a long time. The corrosive force accumulated in his body must be extremely huge. Maybe he was just like the Taichu Wutong before, and his intelligence could be extinguished at any time.

"I know that this matter will cost you a lot, so I didn't want to tell you, but they are all miserable... Lu Ye, if you can help, they will give you a thank you gift. If not, I will talk to them, so you don't have to worry about anything."

Lu Ye said readily: "Since he is a friend of the old tree, just bring him here."

To burn away the corrosive power, the price he had to pay was just some Taoist power. Since Taichu Wutong had already asked for it, Lu Ye certainly couldn't refuse.

Although depending on its meaning, it doesn't really matter if you refuse.

"Is it really possible?" Taichu Wutong was a little surprised. It had hesitated about this matter for a long time, and only came to Lu Ye to talk about it today when it could no longer delay it.

Lu Ye laughed: "No problem, Mr. Tree, I will do what I can."

Taichu Wutong was relieved after hearing this: "That's good, then I...will let them come over?"

Lu Ye nodded.

The next moment, branches sprouted out from the tree hole, forming a portal with ripples inside.

Lu Ye looked towards the door and felt quite curious about who could be friends with Taichu Wutong.

As ripples appeared, a long bronze stick slowly emerged from the portal, and the aura of a treasure flowed.

Lu Ye was stunned for a moment, then he suddenly realized.

He had a preconceived notion that the old friends that Taichu Wutong mentioned were cultivators who had lived for a long time, but now it seems that this is not the case at all. His old friends are actually treasures!

Yes, the Taichu Wutong itself is a treasure, how could any cultivator be friends with it?

The only ones who can be friends with it are other treasures.

After the bronze stick emerged from the portal, it stood quietly aside, and the stick shook slightly, as if greeting Lu Ye.

Immediately afterwards, another round plate as big as a washbasin emerged from the portal, also exuding the aura of a treasure.

Then came a long pestle, and finally a sedan chair came out of the door.

Lu Ye looked at the sedan chair with a dazed look on his face. Isn’t this... a ghost sedan chair?

"My friend, we meet again." Just as Lu Ye was shocked, a clear voice suddenly sounded in his mind. The voice sounded like a girl of fourteen or fifteen years old, but the person who spoke was obviously the ghost sedan in front of him.

It was it that suddenly broke into the starry sky, bringing Lu Ye, Jiuyan and others into the Star Abyss and into the Yanjia Starry Sky, allowing them to truly feel the disaster of the starry sky being invaded.

Since entering Xingyuan, Lu Ye has actually been keeping an eye out for news about the ghost sedan, but unfortunately he has gained nothing over the years. He never expected to see it here again today.

It is actually connected to Taichu Wutong, and the relationship is obviously very good, otherwise Taichu Wutong would not have introduced the ghost sedan chair over.

Lu Ye quickly stood up and saluted to Gui Jiao: "It turns out to be Senior Gui Jiao. I would like to thank you for your support back then."

If the ghost sedan had not brought them into the Yanjia starry sky, Lu Ye's subsequent practice would not have been so smooth. Although he could have achieved enlightenment by staying in the starry sky, it might have taken a long time and his strength would not have improved so quickly.

"It's a small matter, no need to worry about it." The ghost sedan responded crisply.

Taichu Wutong was slightly surprised: "So you two know each other?"

Lu Ye briefly recounted his experience, and Taichu Wutong immediately understood that the ghost sedan did like to break into different starry skies, and then take out the cultivators with the best qualifications in this starry sky to let them see the world in advance.

But I didn’t expect that the ghost sedan and Lu Ye had such an intersection before.

What a coincidence.

The ghost sedan said, "My dear friend, Brother Wutong said that you have a way to help us solve our current predicament, so we all came here to find you. But don't worry, my dear friend, we won't let you work in vain, we will pay you."

Lu Ye looked around, but he didn't see any reward coming with these treasures. He originally thought that the people coming were cultivators, but what came was a treasure...

And they are all treasures with complete spiritual intelligence!

If they were all devoured and refined, there would definitely be four more precious fruits on the talent tree.

But the four of Guijiao obviously could not accept such a result. If they forced it, Taichu Wutong would lose his credibility.

After a brief pause, Lu Ye said, "Everyone, I can indeed help you alleviate your current predicament, but in the process, you may suffer some losses."

"Loss?" Gui Jiao heard this and asked in confusion, "What kind of loss?"

"The passage of laws!" Lu Ye said solemnly.

There are rules within the treasures, which are mysterious. If it was just the ghost sedan coming, Lu Ye could still help for free because of what happened in the past.

But now there are three other treasures.

If you can't devour and refine them all, you can probably absorb some of the power of laws from them as your own reward. That should be fine.

Otherwise, if word spreads about this matter and more treasures come to him, he can't just help them all for free.

The several treasures were silent for a moment, and Lu Ye added: "But don't worry, it won't affect your foundation."

Taichu Wutong stood aside without saying a word. It was the one that knew best whether its own laws had been lost in the process of burning away the corrosive force.

However, since Lu Ye said so, it certainly would not expose it. Compared with being completely eroded, it was simply a slight loss of its own laws, and this price was affordable for the treasures.

It could roughly guess what Lu Ye was thinking.

"If that's the case, then it's acceptable." Guijiao spoke first.

"Then who will go first?" Lu Ye looked at the four treasures.

Relying on his acquaintance with Lu Ye, the ghost sedan said without hesitation: "Let me do it." After that, it floated in front of Lu Ye.

Lu Ye nodded, raised his hand and pressed it on the sedan, activating the power of the talent tree.

The ghost sedan immediately cried out in surprise, then after a while, he said happily: "It really works, I feel that the corrosive force is disappearing!"

As soon as these words came out, the other three treasures shook slightly.

Even though there was the precedent of the Taichu Wutong tree before them, they had never experienced it personally, nor had they seen it with their own eyes. It was not until this moment that the ghost sedan confirmed it that it was finally certain.

It didn't take too long to help the ghost sedan burn away the corrosive force. The ghost sedan was different from the Taichu Wutong. The latter was too huge, so the corrosive force accumulated in its body was also extremely powerful. It would take Lu Ye a year or two to completely burn it away.

The ghost sedan is different, and Lu Ye does not need to completely burn the corrosive force in it.

As long as there is the aura of the Star Abyss in this Star Abyss, no person or thing can escape the power of erosion, so Lu Ye only needs to alleviate the situation of the ghost sedan. In this way, it will not have to worry about any problems with its spiritual intelligence for at least a thousand years.

Lu Ye could feel that the other three treasures seemed to be asking the ghost sedan something. Although he couldn't hear it, they were simply asking about the flow of the ghost sedan's own laws.

The ghost sedan's reply should have resolved their concerns.

Immediately after the ghost sedan, Lu Ye helped the other three treasures to burn away some of the corrosive force.

The mysteries he urged the talent tree to absorb from these treasures were not many, just enough for the black coffin to form a flower bud.

However, considering that there may be more treasures coming to him in the future, if he accumulates a little bit, he can gain a lot.

In this way, even if he does not completely devour the treasure, the power of the treasure fruit can continue to increase.

It's a good deal.

After a few days, several treasures solved the difficult situation, Lu Ye also gained something, and both the host and the guests were very happy.

"Thank you for your help, young friend. We will remember your kindness. If you need us in the future, just let Brother Wutong come find us."

After the incident was over, not only the ghost sedan expressed this attitude, but the remaining three treasures also expressed this attitude.

"In addition, I have already informed Brother Wutong of your reward, and he will tell you in detail later!" Guijiao added.

After a moment, the four treasures left the Phoenix Nest, each flew into the depths of the void, and soon disappeared.

Lu Ye turned to look at Taichu Wutong: "What is the reward that Guijiao mentioned?"

Taichu Wutong smiled slightly: "You also know that this guy Guijiao likes to run around all over Xingyuan. In terms of knowledge, no one in the entire Xingyuan can compare to him. He left a treasure for you, but you need to take it yourself!" (End of this chapter)
