第两千七百九十九章 梦寐以求的宝物

"Important matter, could it be that our sect has run into some trouble again? I would be more than willing to help."

Lin Xuan, the easy-going leader, was indeed comfortable in his role. But if the Cloud Concealment Sect truly encountered a difficult situation, he naturally wouldn't hesitate to offer assistance.

"Ha ha, junior brother, you've misunderstood. This time we called you here isn't because of any trouble for our sect. On the contrary, there's some good news that needs to be announced to you," the silver-eyed maiden said with a playful smile.

"Good news being announced to me..."

Lin Xuan was taken aback and truly surprised. His curiosity was piqued as well.

"What is it? Senior brothers and sisters, no need for any more teasing."

"Do you remember back then when the Heaven Extinction Sect came looking for trouble at our sect?"

"The Heaven Extinction Sect, I naturally remember," Lin Xuan said hesitantly.

Back then, the Heavens Extinction Sect's elders had spared no effort to find treasures for him. Although they worked tirelessly and without rest, he had listed too many materials that were simply beyond their reach. It seemed impossible to gather them all.

"Alas, it seems we still have a long way to go before we can refine the complete version of the Nine Palace Sharp Sword," Lin Xuan sighed inwardly, frustrated with himself for being overly anxious.

"Alright, junior brother, stop joking around."

Just as he was about to say more, the silver-eyed maiden's voice interrupted. "Joking? What do you mean?"

Lin Xuan was taken aback by her words. Could it be...

He had a vague idea but couldn't believe it. It was impossible for the Heaven Extinction Sect to gather all the materials in just a few thousand years.

The silver-eyed maiden seemed to read his thoughts and chuckled, "The Heaven Extinction Sect can't do it alone. What if we add our Cloud Concealment Sect? How does that sound?"

"Cloud Concealment Sect?"

Lin Xuan realized that while the sect was weaker than the Heaven Extinction Sect a few thousand years ago, things had changed. Now, even though they couldn't match the legendary Four Great Sects, their main stronghold alone had tens of thousands of disciples. Add in the branch halls and affiliated forces, how many would there be?

Lin Xuan didn't know, but it was likely to be a massive number.

If both sects worked together for several thousand years, they might just have a chance.

With this thought, Lin Xuan felt elated and bowed to the maiden. "Thank you, senior sister."

"Ha ha, junior brother is too polite. You are our sect's Supreme Elder, and your contributions to us are immense. How could we ignore your request? However..." the silver-eyed maiden smiled.

"What though?"

Lin Xuan was growing impatient.

"The materials you need have many extraordinary items that are extremely difficult to obtain. Our sect and the Heaven Extinction Sect have searched for several thousand years but only managed to gather about eighty percent, with some still missing," the silver-eyed maiden said hesitantly.

"Senior sister is too polite." Lin Xuan quickly returned the bow. He had encountered countless opportunities over the years, and he was well aware that gathering all the materials would be extremely difficult. Eighty percent was far beyond his expectations. He had found many of them through various adventures and coincidences.

The Heaven Extinction Sect and Cloud Concealment Sect had gathered eighty percent, plus what he had collected...

A glimmer of hope shone in Lin Xuan's eyes.

"Senior sister, which materials have been gathered, and which are still missing? Could you list a detailed inventory for me to see?"

"Of course. These were meant to be given to you," the silver-eyed maiden said. As she spoke, she waved her sleeve, and two items appeared on the table: a storage bag and an emerald eye scroll.

The storage bag contained collected materials, while the emerald eye scroll held the inventory list for reference.

"Oh?"

Lin Xuan was elated but didn't bother with the storage bag. Instead, he picked up the emerald eye scroll and lowered his head to immerse his consciousness within it.

Soon, words the size of fists appeared before his eyes.

The records were detailed and presented in a clear table format. He could see what materials had been gathered and which were still missing.

"Indigo-marked wood, phoenix-falling stone, golden flame flower, danxia fruit..."

Lin Xuan's voice echoed as he read the list. The silver-eyed maiden hadn't exaggerated. They had indeed collected over eighty percent of the materials needed to refine the complete version of the Nine Palace Sharp Sword. As for the remaining items, they weren't the most precious ones but were mostly extinct in this world.

It didn't matter. He already had all the missing materials in his momentary bag from various opportunities and adventures.

In other words, he now had all the necessary materials to refine the Nine Palace Sharp Sword, making it no longer a dream.

Lin Xuan's face lit up with joy. He couldn't help but say that his current excitement was even greater than when his main元婴 successfully advanced to the Shen Stage.

After all, he knew his situation well. Even if he couldn't break through for now, it would just take more time and effort.

Advancement was inevitable.

So this wasn't something to be overly excited about. However, refining the complete version of the Nine Palace Sharp Sword was different; there were too many materials needed. Even with his wealth, he had no guarantee of gathering them all. This task required more than one person.

Lin Xuan originally planned to wait until the Cloud Concealment Sect grew stronger before asking his subordinates for help. He never expected that his senior brothers and sisters would be so thoughtful, having already taken care of it before he could ask.

This was indeed a reason for great joy.

Under the big tree, one can cool off. The ancients were right.

His decision to support the Cloud Concealment Sect was too wise.

Lin Xuan thought happily as he didn't bother checking the storage bag. He knew his senior brothers and sisters wouldn't deceive him since the emerald eye scroll listed everything.

Thus, without looking, he put both items in his momentary bag.

Lin Xuan's mood was excellent. As they say, a gift in return for kindness.

He couldn't ignore showing gratitude to his senior brothers and sisters who had helped him so much.

With this thought, Lin Xuan no longer hesitated. He waved his sleeve, and an ancient emerald eye scroll appeared. The surface was slightly damaged, but the content inside was complete. It seemed like a long-lost item.

"Thank you, senior brothers and sisters. This is something I unexpectedly obtained. I planned to give it to you as a gift. Now that we have this, let's use it as a token of appreciation," Lin Xuan said with a smile.

"A gift? Why are you so polite, junior brother?"

The boy named Long wasn't impressed but was curious: "What is in here?"

It was indeed strange. Lin Xuan didn't give him elixirs or treasures; instead, he gave an emerald eye scroll. What could be inside?

Even if it were a powerful cultivation technique, they were already at the Shen Stage and had no reason to change their main cultivation method.

Lin Xuan's junior brother knew this well. If it was a gift, it must be of great value. What could it be?

Both the boy named Long and the silver-eyed maiden were curious.

"Ha ha, why not just take a look? It will be clear," Lin Xuan said with a playful smile.

"Let's see, okay."

The silver-eyed maiden picked up the scroll, lowered her head, and immersed her consciousness within it.

Sure enough, it was a cultivation technique. Although she had doubts, she continued reading, growing increasingly surprised and delighted.

Her expression of anticipation was indescribable. The boy named Long, unaware of the situation, became even more curious about what this item could be.
