Chapter 1058 A Trade

Sometime after leaving his world that was connected with the Myriad of Techniques, Senior Bai went to meet with Xu Jiaqi.

"Lady Xu, I apologize for keeping you waiting. The young man came to the Myriad of Techniques again and I couldn't help myself and went to speak with him. He's changed a lot since our last meeting— both his appearance and strength." Senior Bai said to Xu Jiaqi shortly after arriving.

"Young man…? Are you talking about 'him'? What did you talk about with him?" Xu Jiaqi's interest was immediately piqued.

Senior Bai couldn't help but smile at her reaction.

'She normally keeps herself out of other people's business, but when it comes to Yuan, she always wants to be involved…'

"You're not going to believe me when I say this, but he managed to defeat a Spirit Sovereign as a Spirit King during a trial to access the fifth floor of the Myriad of Techniques, and it was an overwhelming victory on his end."

"Not bad, I suppose." Xu Jiaqi said in a nonchalant manner, seemingly not impressed by it.

'That kind of talent is only natural for someone with the Heaven Refining Physique,' she thought to herself.

"After the match, we had a small conversation, and he wanted me to help him look for a soul cultivation technique."

"Did you agree to help him?" She asked.

He nodded, "Yes, I did, but only after I tested him."

"Don't be too shocked when you hear this, but that young man… He somehow acquired the technique that the Celestial Overlord's founder used— the G.o.d of War's Astral Arts."

"HE WHAT?!?!?!" Xu Jiaqi suddenly exclaimed in a voice so powerful that it literally shook the entire place.

"Are you sure it was the G.o.d of War's Astral Arts?!" She quickly asked him.

"Yes, I am certain, since he used it on me as part of the test." Senior Bai nodded.

"G.o.d of War's Astral Arts…" Xu Jiaqi took a few steps back and stared at the ground with a dazed look on her face.

Over the next several moments, she would recall the memories of the G.o.d of War's Astral Arts being used by the founder of the Celestial Overlord.

"Where… Did he tell you where he found it…?" Xu Jiaqi suddenly asked in a low voice.

"I tried asking, but he didn't want to tell me. I don't blame him, considering how valuable that technique is."

"..."

After another moment of silence, a resolute look appeared on Xu Jiaqi's ethereal face as she spoke, "Bring me to the Myriad of Techniques. I want to speak with him."

"Eh? What about the meeting? The Celestial Emperor will be at the meeting this time as well. It wouldn't be wise to…"

Xu Jiaqi glared at him with a sharp gaze that could literally pierce one's body. Fortunately for Senior Bai, his cultivation was high enough to block the gaze.

"Alright…" Senior Bai quickly gave up and sighed with a bittersweet smile on his face.

He then opened a portal to his world and entered it with Xu Jiaqi.

Meanwhile, Yuan had just returned to the Myriad of Techniques and entered the fifth floor with the others after showing the guard Senior Bai's medallion.

"I can't believe it… Did he really beat a disciple from the Gates of Heaven?" The guard that stayed behind asked the other guard who led Yuan to the arena.

The guard nodded with a nervous look on his face, "Not only did he defeat the disciple, he completely destroyed her."

"Did they give him a super weak opponent because of his Spirit King cultivation?"

The guard shook his head, "No… You probably won't believe this, but his opponent wasn't an Outer Court disciple but an Inner Court disciple, and it was the famous Disciple Ling."

"Disciple Ling?! You don't mean—"

"Exactly that Disciple Ling."

"Unbelievable… No wonder why Senior Bai gave him the medallion…"

At the fifth floor, Yuan said to the ladies, "Go ahead and look around. Let me know when you're done because I will also be looking around."

"Okay."

However, shortly after he started looking at the techniques, Senior Bai's voice resounded inside his head as a portal appeared beside him.

"Yuan, I'm sorry, but can you come back for a moment? Xu Jiaqi would like to speak with you, and she won't take no for an answer."

'Xu Jiaqi…? What does she want from me?' Yuan wondered to himself.

"Xiao Hua, Feng Feng, Yingying, can you wait for me here?" He said to them, as he didn't want to risk Xu Jiaqi meeting with Xiao Hua, and not wanting her to be left out, he asked the others to stay with her.

Once they left his body, Yuan said to them, "Thank you. I will be right back. And if the others ask where I am, let them know where I went."

Yuan entered the portal shortly after, disappearing from the Myriad of Techniques and appearing in Senior Bai's world literally minutes after he just left.

When he arrived at the platform Senior Bai and Xu Jiaqi were waiting, Yuan bowed to them.

"Greetings, Lady Xu and Senior Bai."

Xu Jiaqi raised an eyebrow after noticing the way he addressed her had changed from Miss Xu to Lady Xu, implying that he was no longer as ignorant as before.

"Yuan, I won't waste your time and get straight to the point. I want the G.o.d of War's Astral Arts." Xu Jiaqi suddenly said.

"Eh?" Yuan looked at her with widened eyes, clearly surprised by her sudden demand.

Seeing his reaction, Xu Jiaqi continued, "Of course, I am not asking you to hand over the technique for free. You're looking for a soul cultivation technique, right? In exchange for the G.o.d of War's Astral Arts, I will give you the strongest soul cultivation technique that I can acquire."

'She wants to trade a soul cultivation technique for my G.o.d of War's Astral Arts? Why does she want this technique? What does it mean to her?' Yuan silently wondered to himself.
