Chosen Man
Core Dao Seed

Other than Zu Qingtian who was smiling was relieved in his heart.

The expressions of the great figures of the Zu Family also became more relaxed.

For them, it was better to pay using those useless weird jade instead of having to pay five times over, this deal ended up not bad.

They're not stupid.

Since Feng Zun had been willing to make such an exchange, they would have already understood that the value of the mysterious jade far exceeded five times the value mentioned.

To the Zu Family, this strange jade was useless, no matter how precious it was. They would not feel the pinch even if they exchanged it.

Feng Zun would naturally not explain how rare and precious the strange jade was inside the wooden box.

In terms of value, it was not something that could be measured by the number of spirit stones or piles of treasures!

Immediately, Zu Qingtian handed the large-sized treasure chest to Feng Zun along with the strange jade that had been stored within it.

The treasure chest contained previously agreed resources for the Ocean Spiritual Cocoon.

And it contained, 70 high grade spirit stones, 800 high quality spiritual herbs, 100 top quality Ocean Stones to refine spiritual and other talismans.

Such wealth would probably not be able to be obtained even if one emptied the treasure room of some cultivation power!

"Your Zu family is indeed very lucky. I hope you won't do something stupid like this in the future. Otherwise, no matter how much luck you have, it won't be able to stop the destruction of your Zu Clan."

Feng Zun said calmly.

He actually had no intention of forgiving Zu Qingtian and the others so easily. That's why he had previously asked them to pay five times the deal.

But he had never expected that the Zu Clan actually possessed something so mysterious and rare!

It was even able to make Feng Zun change his mind.

"Let's go."

Feng Zun turned around and left without seeing the ugly expressions on the faces of those great figures.

Yin Ying and Zhuan Long immediately followed behind him.

Shuoxue, on the contrary, was rather confused. He clearly still felt that there were many hidden details in this killing, but it seemed that Feng Zun had no intention of investigating it. Could he have other plans?

On the other hand Huo Sheng, Qian Long, and Sun Jian heaved a sigh of relief.

Previously, they were very worried that Feng Zun would take revenge on them if this matter was revealed.

But now, it seemed that Feng Zun still did not know who was the mastermind behind this murder.

"Brother Qingtian, we'll leave as well."

Yuntian clasped both of his hands forward and bid farewell to Zu Qingtian and the others.

Since the Zu Family was in trouble, outsiders like them could not stay any longer.

"I'm sorry for what happened today, Brother Yuntian. If possible, I hope Brother Yuntian does not spread the word about what happened today. If no... My Zu Clan probably won't be able to raise our heads in this Ocean Prefecture …"

Zu Qingtian sighed. The patriarch of the Zu Clan at this moment looked like a helpless old geezer.

Yuntian nodded.

Just as he was about to step away, he suddenly thought of something and said, “Brother Zu Qingtian, it is sometimes not bad to be able to spend the possessions in order to avoid disaster. If one had to die, then there would be nothing left. In my opinion, if this problem ends like this, then this could be considered a good result.”

Zu Qingtian was stunned, and his face seemed to be digesting something.

How could he not realize that Yuntian was reminding the Zu Family to give up and not advise him to take revenge?

"Thank you for your advice."

Zu Qingtian cupped his hands.

After watching Yuntian and the others leave, Zu Qingtian could only sigh.

This time, the Zu Family has really paid a heavy price!

"Fortunately, Feng Zun was able to keep his promise and did not bring this Ocean Spiritual Cocoon..."

Zu Qingtian could only comfort himself like this.

"Patriak, the Third Elder was killed and the strange jade had also been taken away. We even still have to pay a very expensive price to buy that Ocean Spiritual Cocoon...

This problem...really...we're just going to let it go?"

One of the elders stepped forward and spoke with a somewhat pale face.

"In my opinion, we should tell Elder Zu Qingyong about this. With his status as an elder of the Zen Buddhist Temple and his Immortal realm cultivation, killing Feng Zun was definitely not a problem!"

The Zu Family suffered a huge setback today, which made the higher-ups of the Zu Family very angry.

"Shut up!"

Zu Qingtian scolded with an ice-cold expression. “God Killer once killed dozens of Mortal, even he could also kill Daoist Ming, but it was most likely that he had died at the hands of Feng Zun. Do you really think that my younger brother Zu Qingyong will succeed?"

"Even if we ask Zu Qingyong for help to resolve this matter, I'm not entirely sure it will work. Then if Zu Qingyong fails to kill Feng Zun, how can our Zu Clan bear the consequences?"

His voice was filled with dignity and was engulfed in great anger.

Everyone was silent because of fear.

"Taois Yuntian was right. It's not a bad ending, so we have to put an end to today's problems. Our Zu family can't drown to handle this anymore…"

Zu Qingtian muttered.

How could he not want revenge?

How could he not want to kill Feng Zun?

However, he was even more aware that once he did this, then it would be difficult to predict the fate of their Zu Clan in the future.

…

Under the boundless vault of the sky, the gigantic luxurious ship flew through the air.

Inside the room, Feng Zun sat on the rattan chair and examined the strange jade in his hand.

Upon further observation, it turned out that this was not a stone, but a seed.

This was a seed born from the power of the World's Saripati!

Within a book of knowledge he had read, this strange jade had another name for the Core Dao.

The Dao Core belonged to the category of Natural Divine Artifacts, it was born from the essence of the world. Existence is extremely rare, it can only be found by chance and luck is high.

For example, the Sea of Cosmic Chaos, the Sacred Fetus, the Hun World, and others. They were all Artifacts that were born naturally and were categorized as Natural Divine Artifacts.

Since this is a seed, then to get the benefit one must plant it first. It would only require a land filled with Qi energy density, life vitality, and some other minor conditions.

On the other hand, the time required to cultivate this Core Dao seed, it would probably take countless years.

"Maybe it would be better if the teacher knew this Core Dao Seed first. If I were rash, it would probably ruin this rare treasure."

Feng Zun was deep in thought.

No matter what, these Core Dao Seeds were too rare, and their value could not be calculated using spirit stones. And he would not waste such an incredible thing.

Therefore, when Feng Zun saw the Core Dao Seed in the Zu Family, his attitude towards them instantly turned soft.

If not for that, he would not have let go of the Zu Family easily.

He wondered what the Zu Family would think if they knew that the strange jade was a divine treasure.

Will they feel sorry?

Or will they go back to fighting with him?

However, that Feng Zun knew that this Core Dao Seed was not destined to be useful in the hands of the Zu Family.

The reason for that was that nurturing this Core Dao Seed required a unique secret technique, a very long time and painstaking effort, even the environmental conditions had to be met by Qi energy and life vitality !

Naturally, an ordinary cultivation faction would absolutely not meet all the requirements to take care of this Core Dao Seed, let alone having to endure fatigue in the long wait.

As for the Zu Family, they were merely a cultivation faction in the Luo Mainland. Even if they knew the secret behind the Core Dao Seed, they would definitely give up taking care of him and be destined to retreat alon-alon.

“With my current ability, it is impossible for me to nurture this Core Dao Seed in a short time.”

"However, when the teacher has returned, then everything will probably be a little easier.''

"With this round of time in the small world, in less than two years, this Core Dao Seed would definitely grow and bear fruit!"

Feng Zun thought and got more excited.

"Sister Feng, why are you looking for me?"

As Feng Zun was pondering, Shuoxue had arrived. Her beautiful face that was as beautiful as a painting carried a trace of doubt.

Feng Zun stored the Core Dao Seed and looked at Shuoxue. "I have confirmed that the person who hired the God Killer is in this Profound Ark, so I would like to ask for your help."
