Chapter 1217: Chapter 1216: Purple Gold Stone

”Damn, you’re crazy!” Qi Rongfeng said, unable to hold back after seeing Zhang Tian’s madness.

”To tell you the truth, I brought Ji Yunduo here to lure people from the Qi Family down here, and eventually have you all rest in peace here forever. Hahaha.” Zhang Tian seemed completely deranged at the moment.

Jiang Cheng was surprised at Zhang Tian’s twisted plans, realizing he was willing to hurt both the Ji Family and the Qi Family. This person truly had malevolent intentions.

”Though I didn’t expect Jiang Cheng to come, it’s you, your presence disrupted my plans,” Zhang Tian sneered at Jiang Cheng, ”But later, Qi Rongfeng also appeared, Zhao Shuai’s son also showed up, which made me happy, hence the subsequent collapse,” Zhang Tian said proudly.

Qi Rongfeng and Zhao Shuai were extremely angry at Zhang Tian’s malice. However, due to the bomb in his hand, they dared not act rashly.

”That collapse didn’t manage to kill you all. But now you’ve come to me voluntarily, haha.” Zhang Tian grinned ferociously. Jiang Cheng watched Zhang Tian’s madness, unsure if the bomb threat was real, but he had to steady Zhang Tian. ”Zhang Tian, what do you want?” Jiang Cheng asked.

”What do I want? You already know, don’t you? The writing on the wall, Purple Gold Stone aiding Body Refining, I’m about to refine my body, but I can’t fully understand it, and I don’t have enough Purple Gold Stone,” Zhang Tian said, glancing at Jiang Cheng, ”But now that you’re here, Scientist Jiang, I see you have plenty of treasures, you should have enough Purple Gold Stone, give me some to help with body refining, I can assist you here, but you’ll have to let those two leave first.” Jiang Cheng did not expect Zhang Tian to be so greedy, but Zhao Shuai and Qi Rongfeng’s safety was the priority now.

Zhang Tian chuckled, ”Oh, Scientist Jiang, your plan is quite clever. If they leave, with your capabilities, could I even trap you here? It’s good enough that you recognize my skills. It’s best not to push too far, let them go first, I’ll help you here.” Jiang Cheng felt Zhang Tian was truly poisonous yet cowardly, wanting to trap him on one hand while fearing him on the other.

”No way, Jiang, we can’t leave you alone here, who knows what this madman will do?” Zhao Shuai felt touched that Jiang Cheng wanted them to leave first, but on the other hand, he was deeply concerned about Jiang’s safety.

”Indeed, Jiang, we can’t leave first,” Qi Rongfeng said.

”Oh dear, look at this, Scientist Jiang, they really don’t want to leave,” Zhang Tian said with an insidious grin.

Jiang Cheng walked to Zhao Shuai and Qi Rongfeng, whispering, ”You leave first, I’ll get out soon, keeping all three of us here would be very dangerous.”

”But...” Zhao Shuai started to speak, but Jiang Cheng interrupted him, ”Enough, listen to me, you leave first, I won’t be harmed.”

Qi Rongfeng considered the situation, realizing staying with Zhao Shuai might burden Jiang Cheng, as he would have to consider Zhao Shuai and himself in every action. So, Qi Rongfeng pushed Zhao Shuai slightly, saying, ”We should leave first, staying here will only be detrimental and not beneficial.”

Clearly, Zhao Shuai also realized it was not suitable for them to stay longer, so he nodded in agreement.

Jiang Cheng saw Zhao Shuai and Du Rongfeng agree to leave first, finally feeling some relief, ”Zhang Tian, let them leave.”

Zhang Tian looked at Jiang Cheng’s resolute expression, knowing Jiang Cheng might turn hostile if he didn’t let Zhao Shuai and the others leave, which could ruin his plans.

”Okay, let them go, but they can’t bring anyone in. If they do, you know what will happen,” Zhang Tian raised the remote control in his hand as he spoke.

”Relax, they know I’m in your hands, they won’t act rashly.”

While talking, Jiang Cheng nodded at Yan, Zhao Shuai, and Qi Rongfeng.

Qi Rongfeng also nodded at Jiang Cheng. Zhao Shuai looked somewhat confused; he initially intended to bring rescuers after going out, but now he was uncertain about what to do.

Jiang Cheng saw Zhao Shuai’s perplexed look and couldn’t help laughing, knowing Zhao Shuai would be clueless after leaving. But with Rongfeng there, there was no need to worry too much.

”Jiang, we’re going out first. Be careful here,” Qi Rongfeng glared at Zhang Tian while speaking to Jiang Cheng.

”Mm, hurry and get out,” Jiang Cheng watched Zhao Shuai and Qi Rongfeng’s departing figures, feeling the weight lift from his heart; he would not have to be overly cautious now.

”Alright, Jiang Cheng, now that they’re gone, can you help me?” Zhang Tian said, clearly displeased seeing Zhao Shuai and Qi Rongfeng leave; his intention was to keep them here, but now that they were gone, he had to use the remote control to intimidate Jiang Cheng.

Jiang Cheng looked at the remote in Zhang Tian’s hand with disdain, convinced Zhang Tian wouldn’t dare perish alongside him, but still curious about Zhang Tian’s intentions.

”What do you need me to do?” Jiang Cheng asked.

”Do you have any Purple Gold Stone? I need something this big,” Zhang Tian said, gesturing the size of a fist with his hands.

Jiang Cheng looked at Zhang Tian’s request for such a large piece of Purple Gold Stone. ”I don’t have one that big.”

”Don’t have one? Then give me all you have,” Zhang Tian sneered at Jiang Cheng with disbelief.

Zhang Tian took out two fingernail-sized pieces of Purple Gold Stone from his Jiezhi Bracelet and handed them to Zhang Tian, ”That’s all I have.”

”Really? Can you let me see your Jiezhi Bracelet?” Zhang Tian looked at Jiang Cheng’s Jiezhi Bracelet with envy.

Jiang Cheng replied, ”That may not be possible. My bracelet can only be seen and used by me; others cannot use it even if they get hold of it.” Jiang Cheng spoke truthfully; the Jiezhi Bracelet on him recognized its owner.

Zhang Tian didn’t insist further and took the Purple Gold Stone from Jiang Cheng. ”Now, I just want you to help me understand the writing on the wall.”

Zhang Tian looked at the Purple Gold Stone handed by Jiang Cheng, thinking it met his expectations; the purity and quality were excellent.

Jiang Cheng didn’t expect Zhang Tian couldn’t read the wall’s writing either but said nothing, ”Alright.”

Jiang Cheng and Zhang Tian entered the secret chamber outside, Jiang Cheng looking at the familiar writing on the wall, which he intended to cultivate once he got out. Zhang Tian pointed to a section, speaking.

The wall outlined a Body Refining Technique divided into ten realms, each realm with three grades. A talented normal person would take three years to complete one realm, meaning each grade would require a year to master. Zhang Tian sought to practice the first realm, Sea Barrier, among the ten realms, followed by Other Shore, Immortal Platform, Present Base, and the fifth realm, Dragon Transformation, Wangxian, Ascension to Immortality, with the eighth realm Immortal Transformation. As its name implies, mastering the eighth realm enables one to fly like a deity, though most people can’t achieve this realm in their lifetime. The ninth realm is Returning to Purity, and the tenth — Immortal Transformation. When this tunnel was constructed, supposedly no one reached the tenth realm, Immortal Transformation, thus there is scant description of it.

Jiang Cheng looked at the first realm Zhang Tian pointed out, considering Zhang Tian might have just discovered this tunnel. However, as a Li People, he wondered why Zhang Tian didn’t understand Li Country writing.
