Chapter 1062 Forging the Blade! The Ordeal of Life and Death!
This chapter is updated by JustRead.pl
"The rest who enter the Life-Death Valley... always have a way out, holding a Jade Talisman. When truly faced with certain death, they would be transported out of the Life-Death Valley, but you have no way out... The Jiang Family won’t provide you with a Jade Talisman. Whether or not you enter the Life-Death Valley can only be your own choice."Jiang Shoudao stared at Su Changkong.
Entering the Life-Death Valley was too dangerous. Whether it was the Jiang Family or other Ancient Sects or Clans, those who were qualified to enter the Life-Death Valley were extraordinary prodigies. Yet, even among them, only Holy Emperor Jiang had passed the trial of the Life-Death Ordeal over the past thousand years and came out of the Life-Death Valley.
Others naturally did not go in just to court death without a second thought; they had life-saving Jade Talismans. Once they couldn’t withstand the trials within, the Jade Talisman would save their lives.
But according to the Jiang Family’s intentions, they would not provide Su Changkong with a life-saving Jade Talisman, obviously with purposeful intent.
One reason was, if Su Changkong failed to pass the trial of the Life-Death Ordeal, he would most likely completely become a Demon Monster, posing a great threat. Then, the Jiang Family would have to eliminate him themselves. It would be better for him to perish in the Life-Death Valley.
The second reason was, if there was a way out, one might harbor hope of escaping. How could one truly face a Life-Death Ordeal if there was a way to retreat?
Therefore, the Jiang Family not providing Su Changkong with a life-saving Jade Talisman meant that Su Changkong’s entry into the Life-Death Valley had only two outcomes: die within the valley or pass the Life-Death Ordeal and emerge on his own strength!
Su Changkong was somewhat silent. Given his cautious personality, he never actively put himself in a situation where death was a certainty. The danger of entering the Life-Death Valley was indeed too great!
Yet, if he didn’t take the risk, Su Changkong’s fate would also be to turn into a Demon Monster. At that time, he wouldn’t be the same person anymore, whether it would be his physical body or his soul. He would be a complete Demon Monster, which was not much different from death.
"Holy Emperor Jiang, did he enter the Life-Death Valley with a life-saving Jade Talisman?"
Su Changkong asked.
"No, Holy Emperor Jiang is our Jiang Family’s Holy Emperor, one of the strongest in the Ancient Holy Country today. Born with a divine portent, he was determined to surpass the Nine Great Ancient Sages. Even when entering the Life-Death Valley, Holy Emperor Jiang was very confident in himself and did not bring a life-saving Jade Talisman."
Jiang Shoudao stated.
Holy Emperor Jiang, as the ruler of the Ancient Holy Country today, was naturally an extraordinary entity from a young age. He’s also the only one over the past thousand years who dared to enter the Life-Death Valley without a life-saving Jade Talisman and still managed to walk out alive by his own strength!
Like everyone else who enters the Life-Death Valley, they would bring a life-saving Jade Talisman. After all, the trials of the Life-Death Valley were much too dangerous. No one would gamble on the less than one percent chance. People wanted to break through, but they didn’t really want to die.
"Since someone has walked out of the Life-Death Valley, then why can’t I?"
Upon hearing this, Su Changkong’s eyes turned resolute.
Su Changkong looked up at Jiang Shoudao: "Alright, this Life-Death Valley... I’m willing to enter!"
"Not bad!"
Su Changkong’s reply did not surprise Jiang Shoudao, who nodded in approval.
Given Su Changkong’s current situation, rather than sitting and waiting for the inevitable doom, letting the transformation into a Demon Monster continue, he might as well risk it all and fight for that slim chance of survival!
"But... I fear he will have a hard time exiting the Life-Death Valley alive."
Even so, Jiang Shoudao sighed inwardly. He didn’t hold much hope that Su Changkong could exit the Life-Death Valley alive.
There was no doubt about the extraordinary nature of Su Changkong, but weren’t all those who could enter the Life-Death Valley extraordinary prodigies?
Like Jiang Shoudao, who had also entered the Life-Death Valley before. To cultivate Great Divine Power, he naturally was an exceptional prodigy in the entire Holy Country, but the experiences during his time in the Life-Death Valley were the most difficult in his life, and ultimately, he too had to resort to using the life-saving Jade Talisman, accepting failure and giving up.
And Su Changkong, without a life-saving Jade Talisman and no way back, was very likely to fall during the Life-Death Ordeal!
"I won’t... be worse than Holy Emperor Jiang! What he has done, I can do too!"
Su Changkong’s gaze was firm, and a surge of pride rose in his heart.
"I will take you to the Life-Death Valley in a month. Additionally... could you sell me that Yuan Soul Crystal of yours? I won’t shortchange you on the price."
Having made the arrangement with Su Changkong, Jiang Shoudao then made a request.
Yuan Soul Crystals, undoubtedly very precious, could help some Martial Artists increase their soul potential, giving some at the pinnacle of the Soul Realm a chance to cultivate into the Primordial Spirit. They could only be obtained by slaying a real Demon Monster.
Su Changkong had used his previous Yuan Soul Crystal to feed a True Beast, and he had obtained another after killing the Dragon Snake. However, Su Changkong had naturally not been in the mood to study or deal with it during this time.
Jiang Shoudao was quite eager to buy this Yuan Soul Crystal; he himself didn’t need it, but there were certainly people in the Jiang Family who needed such a treasure.
"That’s fine, Elder Jiang, name your price."
Naturally, Su Changkong had no objection. The Yuan Soul Crystal wasn’t as useful to him, who had already cultivated into the Primordial Spirit, and exchanging it for cultivation resources was a good choice.
"40,000 taels of Primordial Liquid."
Jiang Shoudao also mentioned the price.
40,000 taels of Primordial Liquid was naturally a very generous amount and did not take advantage of Su Changkong.
"Then let’s settle on that price."
Su Changkong did not haggle and agreed, taking out the Yuan Soul Crystal from the Dragon Snake from his Storage Treasure and handing it to Jiang Shoudao.
Jiang Shoudao also paid Su Changkong the 40,000 taels of Primordial Liquid without hesitation.
This large sum of Primordial Liquid was enough for Su Changkong to feed the three Divine Seeds within his body to the limit of the third layer of the Entering Saint Realm.
