Invincible Divine Sword - Chapter 199 - Chapter 199: Chapter 199: Must Take First Place?

Chapter 199: Chapter 199: Must Take First Place?

Gu Shaozong nodded. He also knew that it would be difficult to convince Yang Xiaotian to give up the supreme Innate Sword Spirit.

After all, it was a supreme Innate Sword Spirit.

“However, everything has a price, even the supreme Innate Sword Spirit,” Gu Shaozong said confidently. “As long as what I offer is of equal value to the supreme Innate Sword Spirit, I believe Yang Xiaotian will make the exchange.”

Moments later, Gu Shaozong, with a group of subordinates, headed towards Xiaotian’s Azure Dragon Residence.

So, not long after Xiaotian returned to the Azure Dragon Residence, Gu Shaozong and his subordinates also arrived.

“Gu Shaozong of the Ancient Divine Palace is outside asking to see you?” Xiaotian was about to assimilate the Innate Sword Spirit when he heard Luo Qing come in to report.

“Yes,” Luo Qing said. “He brought quite a few people with him. It looks like they’re here to see the young master.”

“Bring them in,” Xiaotian said after thinking it over.

He had just arrived in the hall when he saw Luo Qing leading Gu Shaozong and his group inside.

Gu Shaozong was very handsome and tall. His movements were swift, giving off an oppressive aura.

Gu Shaozong possessed one of the ten ancient bloodlines, the Roc Bloodline.

The Roc Bloodline was stronger than Guo Wei’s Ancient Dragon God Bloodline, and the oppressive feeling came from his Roc Bloodline.

Gu Shaozong was very polite when he met Xiaotian. He exchanged a few cordial words with Xiaotian and after sitting down, he got straight to the point.

“Oh, you want to exchange something for my Innate Sword Spirit?” Xiaotian said impassively after hearing the purpose of the visit.

Gu Shaozong smiled and said, “Correct. I have been searching for an Innate Sword Spirit for many days. It’s extremely important to me. I hope Brother Yang can part with it. If Brother Yang is willing to do so, I would be immensely grateful.”

“I know the supreme Innate Sword Spirit is a treasure. I have some treasures here as well; Brother Yang, feel free to take whatever you like.”

As he spoke, he took out three items.

The first item was a gigantic egg.

The second item was a large, supreme-quality Spirit Stone.

The third item was an ancient book.

Gu Shaozong explained, “This gigantic egg is the egg of an Ancient Roc, and it was left by the Ancient Roc Master.” Then he pointed to a Spirit Stone as tall as a person and said, “This supreme-quality Spirit Stone contains innate lightning energy. It’s the only one in the entire Divine Dragon Empire.”

“This ancient book is the Roc Technique created by the Ancient Roc Master!”

Wu Qi, Luo Qing, and the others standing behind Xiaotian were all deeply shaken by Gu Shaozong’s introduction.

The three items presented by Gu Shaozong were each capable of causing a stir across the Empire.

The Roc Egg, already a rarity, was as precious as a True Dragon Egg, especially since it was left by the Ancient Roc Master.

Once this Roc Egg hatches, it might possess the bloodline of the Roc Master. If it grows up, it will become a Super Divine Beast.

As for that supreme-quality Spirit Stone, it goes without saying that a fist-sized supreme-quality Spirit Stone would be considered a treasure by many Supreme Sects. One as tall as a person and containing innate lightning energy was certainly a rare find.

The Roc Technique, created by the Ancient Roc Master, was no less valuable than the previous two items.

Xiaotian looked at the three items yet remained expressionless and shook his head, “These three items are treasures, Gu Shaozong, but I do not need them.”

Hatching the Roc Egg could take many years, and if one waited for the Roc to grow, it might take thousands of years.

Although the supreme-quality Spirit Stone was a treasure, he already possessed the Blood Dragon Spirit Vein.

Regarding the Roc Technique, he needed it even less, for his Primordial Dragon Art was a hundred times better.

Gu Shaozong, seeing that Yang Xiaotian was uninterested in the three items related to the Ancient Roc Egg, gritted his teeth and took out the Pharmacopoeia of Medicine God: “This is the Pharmacopoeia of Medicine God I’ve obtained.”

“I believe Brother Yang also knows what the Pharmacopoeia of Medicine God is. It can be said to be the most legendary Alchemy book within our Empire Medicine Realm, created by the Medicine God himself.”

He took a deep breath: “This Pharmacopoeia of Medicine God has condensed the lifelong efforts of our ancestor, the Medicine God, and it contains various alchemical techniques and ancient pill recipes.”

“It even includes three of the top ten alchemy techniques.”

“If Brother Yang is willing to let me have that Innate Sword Spirit, this Pharmacopoeia of Medicine God is yours.”

Yang Xiaotian hadn’t expected that Gu Shaozong would actually be willing to trade the Pharmacopoeia of Medicine God for his Innate Sword Spirit.

The Pharmacopoeia of Medicine God was created by Su Dan, the Medicine God of the Divine Dragon Empire thousands of years ago.

Su Dan was also the only Medicine God since the founding of the Divine Dragon Empire.

The Pharmacopoeia of Medicine God is a treasure that all pharmacists in the Divine Dragon Empire dream of obtaining.

Just the three alchemy techniques from the top ten contained within the Pharmacopoeia of Medicine God were enough to drive the pharmacists of the Divine Dragon Empire mad.

But Yang Xiaotian still shook his head: “Indeed, the Pharmacopoeia of Medicine God is the most legendary Alchemy book in our Empire, but I do not need it.”

The Alchemy books left in Hong Feng’s cave abode were no less than the Pharmacopoeia of Medicine God.

Of the top ten alchemy techniques, he had already mastered five.

He simply did not need this Pharmacopoeia of Medicine God.

Gu Shaozong, seeing that Yang Xiaotian had not even thought about it before refusing him, felt a frown forming on his previously confident face.

He hesitated for a moment, and then said, “If Brother Yang is willing to let me have the Innate Sword Spirit, I will give you all four of these treasures.”

Wu Qi and Luo Qing were shocked.

“I’m sorry,” Yang Xiaotian shook his head. “I do not need these four items, and I equally need the Innate Sword Spirit right now, so I will not trade.”

An expert behind Gu Shaozong couldn’t help but say angrily, “Yang Xiaotian, don’t be too excessive! Our young master has already shown enough sincerity by offering these four treasures in exchange!”

“Moreover, what kind of status does our young master have? He came to visit you personally to discuss this, which is already giving you enough face!”

Gu Shaozong, sitting there, did not stop his subordinate. Clearly, Yang Xiaotian’s repeated refusals had already irked him.

Yang Xiaotian glanced at Gu Shaozong and said indifferently, “In your eyes, these four items of the Pharmacopoeia of Medicine God are treasures, but in my eyes, they are nothing but garbage.”

Upon hearing this, the experts behind Gu Shaozong were all enraged.

Even Gu Shaozong’s face darkened.

“What did you say!” exploded the expert behind Gu Shaozong in fury.

Gu Shaozong raised his hand, stopping his subordinate, and looked steadily at Yang Xiaotian: “I must win first place in this Empire Pharmacist Competition! At that time, I will be the successor to the Empire Pharmacist Hall.”

“Young Master Yang, do you really want to offend me over a mere Innate Sword Spirit?”

Yang Xiaotian looked at Gu Shaozong and smiled, “You must win first place in this Empire Pharmacist Competition?”

Gu Shaozong said calmly, “Correct.” His tone was filled with immense self-confidence.

Even Shi Yongping, the Grand Hall Master of Pharmacists, had praised his talent for alchemy. He was confident that, when it came to alchemy, no one among the younger generation could compare to him.

He shook his head at Yang Xiaotian: “Offending me now is not a wise move, Young Master Yang. Once I take over the Empire Pharmacist Hall, you might find no place for yourself within the Empire’s circle of pharmacists.”
