Chapter 1359: Chapter 1359: Impressive Strength
Helian Ziyu’s words truly startled Jing Yan.
In the God Realm, the value of an Acquired Spiritual Treasure is extremely astonishing. There are many ordinary Main Gods, even True Origin Main Gods, who may not possess an Acquired Spiritual Treasure. Even for an intermediate Domain Master like Hao Yuntian, owning an Acquired Spiritual Treasure is rare.
Yet Helian Ziyu said he was willing to exchange an Acquired Spiritual Treasure for just a jar of Green Bamboo Wine!
"Brother Jing Yan, there’s no need to be surprised. Even Brother Helian, as well as us, would likely agree. It’s not just our group; other martial artists from the God Realm trapped here would probably be willing to exchange, too!" Che Gu’s expression became significantly graver.
Indeed, they were willing!
All this time, they had been trapped in this Land of Descent for a very long time.
Some had even entered the Land of Descent before the Great Devastation War. Trapped here for such a long period, how could they still have any consumables left? It wasn’t just wine and such items; even elixirs and similar resources had long been depleted.
To them, resources like Acquired Spiritual Treasures and precious minerals held no actual value. While these things might be priceless in the God Realm, in the Land of Descent, what use did they have?
It was wiser to trade for a jar of Green Bamboo Wine.
After Che Gu and the others briefly explained the situation, Jing Yan suddenly understood.
Che Gu and the others had been trapped here for too long and were incredibly lonely.
Fortunately, in this Land of Descent, newcomers occasionally appeared, usually every few million or ten million years. These newcomers often had a lot of consumables on them.
Previously, Che Gu and the others were so welcoming to Jing Yan not just because he was a martial artist from the Seventh Divine Domain, but because of the consumables he carried.
There was already an agreement among the martial artists of the Nine Great Divine Realms here: no matter which Divine Realm a newcomer to the Land of Descent came from, others from the various Divine Realms were not allowed to rob the newcomers of their resources.
Jing Yan didn’t feel any regret for giving each person here a jar of Green Bamboo Wine, knowing that it could exchange for an Acquired Spiritual Treasure. Honestly, even if he had known earlier about the huge value of Green Bamboo Wine here, he would have given some away without hesitation.
Because of the Green Bamboo Wine, Che Gu and the others became even more enthusiastic about Jing Yan.
"Brother Jing Yan, why do I feel as though you are quite young? Your Divine Soul Aura feels very youthful! You seem to be only a few thousand years old? Could I be sensing this wrong?" Che Gu looked at Jing Yan with a puzzled expression and asked.
Others also turned their curious eyes towards Jing Yan. They all felt Jing Yan was very young.
"I’ve been cultivating for a little over two thousand years," Jing Yan said with a smile to the crowd.
"Over two thousand years?" Che Gu shook his head gently and said, "Brother Jing Yan, you must have stumbled into the Land of Descent by accident, haven’t you? You know you must not approach the Land of Descent, or else you’d be sucked in. You were too careless."
"Brother Jing Yan, you indeed were too careless! Even though you’ve been cultivating for a short time, you’ve attained the Nine Tripods Main God Realm. How could you not know not to get near the Land of Descent?" Helian Ziyu and the others also shook their heads and said.
They assumed that Jing Yan had inadvertently been swallowed into the Land of Descent.
Jing Yan gave a bitter smile and looked at everyone, saying, "I entered of my own will!"
"What?"
"You wanted to come in on your own?"
"What’s going on, why would you want to enter the Land of Descent? At such a young age, you’ve already reached the Nine Tripods Main God Realm; your talent must be extremely high, and you must have had great encounters. Why would you seek danger and come to the Land of Descent?" Che Gu and the others called out in disbelief upon hearing that Jing Yan voluntarily entered the Land of Descent.
It’s no wonder they were surprised.
The Land of Descent is easy to get into, but leaving is extremely difficult. Most who entered were of significant age and had tried many ways to harmonization without success. As a last resort, they decided to enter the Land of Descent to take their chances.
They’d never seen a young cultivator of a few thousand years like Jing Yan voluntarily enter the Land of Descent.
In the past, the youngest martial artists entering the Land of Descent were at least several million years into cultivation. Anyone who felt they still had a hope of harmonization outside would never easily enter the Land of Descent.
The Jing Yan before them was clearly not in a state of hopelessness concerning reaching harmonization. Having cultivated for just over two thousand years and becoming a Nine Tripods Main God, what was the possibility of harmonizing into a God Lord one day?
Why take the risk of coming to the Land of Descent?
"I had no choice! I offended a great figure in the God Realm. The other party wanted me dead! With no other option, I had to take my chances in the Land of Descent," Jing Yan shook his head, his expression somewhat gloomy.
"Since you’re here now, there’s no use talking about it anymore. Nevertheless, brother Jing Yan, you don’t have to worry about your safety now. Those great figures from the God Realm can’t enter here unless they’re Heavenly Venerates," Che Gu patted Jing Yan’s shoulder, reassuring him.
"Brother Jing Yan, your strength is impressive! An ordinary Nine Tripods Main God wouldn’t be able to reach this inner area through those perilous regions," Weng Quan looked at Jing Yan with a smile.
"Are you referring to the Flame Land, senior?" Jing Yan asked as he looked at Weng Quan.
"Oh? You came from the Flame Land? It appears that your Main God Core must be of the Fire Attribute!" Weng Quan nodded and continued, "Entering the Land of Descent, a martial artist will end up directly in a perilous area. The perilous area one enters depends on the attribute of their Main God Core. Those with a Fire Attribute Main God Core enter the Red Flame Land while those with a Water Attribute Main God Core enter the Weak Water Land, and so forth!"
"Being able to traverse the Red Flame Land shows Brother Jing Yan’s abilities must be formidable. An ordinary Nine Tripods Main God couldn’t make it through those perilous regions!" Che Gu also said with a smile.
Typically, Nine Tripods Main Gods entering the Land of Descent are those who have cultivated for a long time and see little hope of advancing to become a God Lord outside. Their powers and abilities are formidable, allowing most to get through the perilous regions and reach this place.
Young Nine Tripods Main Gods like Jing Yan rarely enter the Land of Descent voluntarily. Of course, if they accidentally entered, they would mostly perish in the perilous regions.
"I was fortunate. The Red Flame Land is indeed perilous, especially those red flame shadows; their attack power is quite terrifying!" Jing Yan nodded, agreeing wholeheartedly.
In the end, when he faced an encirclement of five red shadows in the Red Flame Land, it was through the power of the Gravity Domain that he barely managed to escape.
"Red shadows? Are you referring to the Red Flame Spirits? Did you encounter Red Flame Spirits in the Red Flame Land?" Che Gu’s tone shifted slightly.
