Chapter 313: Obtaining 3 Lightning Essences and Divine Oath Plan
Tang Yin pondered for a moment before making his decision.
He bought 2 small vials of Void Lightning’s Lightning Essence, 2 small vials of Soul Lightning’s Lightning Essence and 1 small vial of Holy Lightning’s Lightning Essence.
The reason why he bought 2 vials for each Lightning Essence instead of 1 was because a small vial was only around half of what he needed. The Tribulation Lightning’s Lighting Essence that he had was twice the quantity of 1 small vial of Lightning Essence.
So, purchasing 2 vials of Lighting Essence for each type of lightning was equivalent to the quantity of Tribulation Lightning’s Lightning Essence that he possessed.
Unfortunately, he did not have enough contribution points left, so he could only purchase 1 small vial of Holy Lightning’s Lightning Essence.
Tang Yin then checked his Personal Identification Token.
’Name: Demonic Asura’
’Contribution Points: 25,500’
’View Exchange Market’
’Current Mission: None’
"Brother Asura, the items that you have purchased will arrive in a few days." Liu Hao stated. As the Keeper of the seventh floor, he was informed of all the purchases that cultivators on the seventh floor made from the Exchange Market.
Although he did not know why Tang Yin required so much Lightning Essence, he did not particularly care. His job was not to snoop around other people’s business.
Tang Yin nodded and walked to the black altar at the centre of the seventh floor. He picked up an emerald jade token and inspected the available missions.
After a few moments, he found a suitable mission. He only needed to slaughter some Mid-tier Rank 7 Demonic Beasts. He could keep their corpses and would receive 20,000 contribution points as a reward.
Tang Yin left the Neutral Cultivation Alliance Branch to complete his mission. The location was also not that far away, only around 5 Regions away from the Neutral Cultivation Alliance Branch.
5 days flowed by quickly.
Tang Yin returned to the Neutral Cultivation Alliance Branch. There were no unexpected surprises, everything went calmly.
He killed 4 Mid-tier Rank 7 Demonic Beasts per the mission’s request before returning. He also killed another 2 Rank 7 Demonic Beasts on the way to the location and back to the Branch.
Tang Yin swiftly cashed in all of the corpses for contribution points.
"2 Low-tier Rank 7 Demonic Beasts and 4 Mid-tier Rank 7 Demonic Beasts. Including their Demonic Beast Cores, Beast Souls and valuable parts, the total amount of contribution points amounts to 87,500. If we include the mission’s rewards, the total is 107,500 contribution points." Liu Hao calculated and announced to Tang Yin.
Tang Yin nodded and gave his Personal Identification Token to Liu Hao. He transferred the contribution points into the token before handing it back to Tang Yin.
Tang Yin immediately rushed to the Exchange Market.
’Holy Lightning’s Lightning Essence: 1 Small Vial = 100,000 Contribution Points.’
Upon seeing that nobody else had bought the item he wanted, he let out a sigh of relief. He quickly purchased it before something unexpected happened.
"Brother Asura, the 5 vials of Lightning Essence have arrived." Liu Hao took 5 small white vials out of his storage ring before presenting them to Tang Yin.
Tang Yin took them and inspected them one by one without showing any respect.
There was no trust between Rogue Cultivators and the Neutral Cultivation Alliance. Everything operated on benefits and mutual agreements.
Liu Hao did not mind. He had witnessed scenes like this many times, he was not surprised.
Tang Yin carefully inspected every vial with his divine sense.
2 of the vials contained black particles, and the black particles emanated an intense aura of destruction. The vials contained the Void Lightning’s, Lightning Essence.
2 of the other vials contained invisible particles with a blue hue. The aura of the particles was ethereal as if they were beyond human comprehension. The vials contained the Soul Lightning’s, Lightning Essence.
The last vial contained white particles that radiated a holy aura. It obviously contained the Holy Lightning’s, Lightning Essence.
"Hm? Brother Asura, you could have told me that you wanted another vial of Holy Lightning’s Lightning Essence. I would have pre-ordered it for you." Liu Hao spoke with a frown.
He could have pre-ordered an extra vial of Holy Lightning’s Lightning Essence and then given it to Tang Yin at the exact moment he purchased it from the Exchange Market.
However, since Tang Yin did not inform him, the single small vial containing the Holy Lightning’s Lightning Essence would take another few days to arrive.
"Well, it doesn’t matter. I have time. I’ll be sure to remember in the future." Tang Yin was not too bothered, he could wait a few days. Liu Hao only nodded.
Tang Yin approached the black altar and chose another mission. It was quite similar to the previous mission with similar rewards.
He only needed to kill 2 High-tier Rank 7 Demonic Beasts. He would be rewarded with 40,000 contribution points and could also keep the corpses. The location also wasn’t too far away. Tang Yin only needed to travel through 6 Regions.
Another week trickled by.
Tang Yin returned, and a similar scene repeated itself.
He gave Liu Hao a storage ring containing 3 High-tier Rank 7 Demonic Beasts and 2 Mid-tier Rank 7 Demonic Beasts.
He had encountered another High-tier and 2 Mid-tier Rank 7 Demonic Beasts during the journey to the location of the mission and back to the Neutral Cultivation Alliance Branch.
"The 2 Mid-tier Rank 7 Demonic Beasts are worth 48,000 contribution points, and the 3 High-tier Rank 7 Demonic Beasts are worth 140,000 contribution points. If we include the reward of the mission, the total is 188,000 contribution points." By now Liu Hao’s continual shock had subsided. This was just a regular occurrence for him every time Tang Yin came back to the Neutral Cultivation Alliance Branch.
After transferring the contribution points into Tang Yin’s Personal Identification Token, he gave the token back to him.
’Name: Demonic Asura’
’Contribution Points: 220,000’
’View Exchange Market’
’Current Mission: None’
"Oh, by the way, the vial of Holy Lightning’s Lightning Essence has arrived." Liu Hao remembered. He took out a small white vial from his storage ring and gave it to Tang Yin.
Tang Yin opened the vial, only to be greeted with a familiar sight. The vial was full of white particles that radiated a sacred, holy aura. Tang Yin nodded and put the small white vial into his storage ring.
Now, Tang Yin had already collected 4 Lightning Essences. Tribulation Lightning, Void Lightning, Soul Lightning and Holy Lightning.
The next type of lightning that Tang Yin planned to obtain was Divine Retribution Lightning. After that, he would need to decide on the remaining 4 types of lightning. After all, there were numerous types of lightning in the world.
By now, a month had already passed since leaving the Moonlit River Sect.
Tang Yin had a month and 2 weeks left if he counted the 2 week travel time required to return to the Moonlit River Sect.
This was more than enough time to obtain Divine Retribution Lightning’s, Lightning Essence. The only problem would be to decide on which thing he would swear a Divine Oath on.
Tang Yin decided to browse through the available missions to obtain some inspiration. After a few minutes, his eyes shone. He emerged from the jade token before leaving the Neutral Cultivation Alliance Branch. He had not accepted a mission.
Instead, he was heading to the place where he would swear a Divine Oath.
He also changed his appearance. He now appeared as a middle-aged man with a goatee, a handsome face and long black hair. His frame was not too muscular, but his strength was apparent.
Tang Yin crossed 6 Regions before arriving at his destination. During the short journey, he encountered a single Rank 7 Demonic Beast which he swiftly killed and stowed away in his storage ring.
Currently, Tang Yin was standing before a huge mountain. Numerous palaces and celestial buildings could be spotted all over the mountain. There were also a few cultivators coming and leaving the mountain. Each cultivator was above the Spirit Vein Condensation Realm. Clearly, this place was the location of a powerful sect.
With a devious grin, Tang Yin disappeared, only to reappear somewhere inside the sect.
He was inside a pinkish-purple room that reeked of a female’s residence. On a large, luxurious bed, sat a beautiful young woman with blue hair and a well-developed curvaceous body. Her beauty was almost on par with Xu Yun.
The faint fluctuations around her body clearly displayed that she was a Late-stage Principle Comprehension Realm cultivator.
The blue-haired, beautiful woman seemed to notice something. She opened her eyes only to notice a middle-aged man standing before her. His left eye shone with a golden flash whilst his right eye glimmered with a blue sparkle. Sun-Moon Great Illusion Art!
The blue-haired woman’s eyes rolled over, she fell unconscious. Her weak soul could not resist Tang Yin’s powerful illusion Martial Skill.
