"If I had stayed on the Eastern Continent, I would probably be dead by now."
The Primordial Talisman Pen was very angry.
Apparently, it too was on the run and finally arrived at a mortal realm on the Southern Continent.
Fortunately, its destiny was indeed quite good; just as it was about to perish, it encountered Jiang Fan.
As a result, its injuries are now completely healed.
Even the future of this generation's inheritor is limitless, and there might be a chance for revenge.
"If the Ten Thousand Talisman Daoist is from the Celestial Secret Mansion, why would he appear here?"
Jiang Fan asked.
"Heh, do you even need to ask? Surely he covets the last inheritance of the Primordial Talisman Sect."
"That's why he's stayed here and refuses to leave."
"Of course, it could also be that the Celestial Secret Mansion is not giving up and still wants to find the inheritor of the Primordial Talisman Sect."
"So you need to be careful and by no means reveal the power of the Primordial Talisman Sect."
"Otherwise, the Celestial Secret Mansion might come knocking."
The Primordial Talisman Pen reminded.
It was constantly wary of the Celestial Secret Mansion, as the opponent was proficient in divination and exceptionally skilled at tracking enemies. If even a trace was leaked, they might come immediately.
Even though it wanted revenge, it knew that now was not the best time for it.
The saying goes that a gentleman's revenge is never too late even after ten years.
If Jiang Fan becomes a Divinity Transformation Cultivator, seeking revenge against the Celestial Secret Mansion would be a matter of minutes.
So there's no need to rush.
"Hmm."
Jiang Fan nodded, but he wasn't too worried.
If any real danger appeared, the Fortune-Telling Talisman would certainly warn him.
Even if the Celestial Secret Mansion was formidable, it couldn't match his overwhelming destiny.
"By the way, why were you being hunted by three Golden Core Demon Cultivators?"
At this point, Jiang Fan looked at Yuan Hongming and asked directly.
"Master, that's just my bad luck."
"I wanted to explore the Ancient Ruins just now."
"Who could have expected that three Golden Core Demon Cultivators were already lying in ambush nearby?"
"After a fierce battle, I managed to escape here."
"Thankfully, Master rescued me in time, or I would have been dead long ago."
Yuan Hongming said very gratefully.
Because this Ancient Ruins place not only sees Righteous Cultivators appearing but also Demonic Cultivators.
The righteous and demonic sides frequently battle each other in the Ancient Ruins.
Once they meet, it's a battle to the death.
You could say the struggle between the Righteous Dao and Demon Dao on the Eastern Continent is much more intense than on the Southern Continent.
Moreover, both sides are evenly matched and cannot overpower each other.
"Hmm, let's find a place to rest first."
Jiang Fan was also a little worried that these Demon Cultivators might have companions searching for him. To avoid unnecessary trouble, it would be best to leave this place first.
"Master, let's go to Ten Thousand Talisman City."
"I happen to have a residence in Ten Thousand Talisman City that can provide Master with a place to rest."
Yuan Hongming immediately proposed.
"Alright."
Jiang Fan also wanted to see this city built near the Ancient Ruins. Although Ten Thousand Talisman Daoist controlled Ten Thousand Talisman City, he couldn't possibly know that Jiang Fan was the inheritor of the Primordial Talisman Sect.
As long as he didn't expose himself, the risk was minimal.
So, he naturally wasn't afraid to go to Ten Thousand Talisman City.
More importantly, the Fortune-Telling Talisman hadn't warned of any danger, indicating this venture is indeed without peril.
...
Several hours later.
With Yuan Hongming leading the way, Jiang Fan quickly arrived at Ten Thousand Talisman City.
This was a giant Tier Four city built on a Tier Four Upper Grade Spirit Vein, with incredibly dense spiritual qi.
Moreover, it was much more prosperous than Xuanjian City.
It is said that more than a million cultivators live in Ten Thousand Talisman City, suggesting its bustling nature.
"The cultivators of the Eastern Continent are indeed stronger than those of the Southern Continent."
After entering Ten Thousand Talisman City, Jiang Fan noticed that the average level of cultivators on the Eastern Continent was quite high, and even Qi Cultivation Stage Cultivators each possessed a Magical Artifact.
Unlike the Southern Continent's Qi Cultivation Stage Loose Cultivators, most of whom are struggling and can't even afford one Magical Artifact.
Moreover, the number of Foundation Establishment Cultivators and Golden Core Cultivators was also greater.
However, even so, Golden Core Cultivators are still considered the backbone of the Eastern Continent.
Regardless of the faction, they would be highly valued.
Thus, Yuan Hongming could purchase a residence in Ten Thousand Talisman City.
Additionally, the residence's location had very dense spiritual qi, making it very suitable for Golden Core Cultivators' cultivation.
It didn't take long for Jiang Fan to familiarize himself with Ten Thousand Talisman City.
He quickly found a quiet room in the residence to review his recent gains.
"No way, are the Demon Cultivators on the Eastern Continent this wealthy?"
Jiang Fan's eyes widened as he opened the three Golden Core Demon Cultivators' storage bags, sensing the abundance of treasures inside, with just the number of Spirit Stones reaching one million—this was somewhat outrageous.
He had slain Demon Cultivators before, but those were all dirt poor.
Presumably, they had been chased by Righteous Cultivators too ruthlessly, leaving them no opportunity to acquire any treasures.
But it was different on the Eastern Continent, where demonic influence was no less than righteous influence.
So Demon Cultivators were wealthier than those from other places.
Of course, Spirit Stones aren't the main gain, serving mainly to offset some of the losses from opening the Gate of the Void.
The most important gain was definitely that Fifth-Grade Opportunity.
"What is this?"
Jiang Fan blinked, seeing a fist-sized Five-Colored Crystal Stone inside a storage bag, indicating it was a Fifth-Grade Opportunity and indeed a rare material.
"Master, this is a Five-Colored Exquisite Stone."
"It can exactly help me repair some injuries."
Seeing this material, the Exquisite Tower was instantly excited.
After all, it had also suffered considerable damage and had not fully recovered even now.
This was because materials to repair its injuries were extremely scarce.
"Really?!"
"Then take this material and use it."
Jiang Fan was overjoyed.
To be honest, the Ancient Treasure Exquisite Tower had provided him with great assistance.
If its injuries could be fully repaired, it would be like adding wings to a tiger.
Originally, he had been pondering how to repair the Ancient Treasure, but unexpectedly, fortune smiled upon him.
He suddenly acquired such a rare material.
"Yes, Master."
The Exquisite Tower was very excited and quickly devoured the material.
Boom~~
Instantly, some cracks on the Exquisite Tower were swiftly repaired after obtaining the Five-Colored Exquisite Stone.
The entire treasure tower exuded a powerful aura, seemingly restoring numerous formidable restrictions.
An invisible force spread from it, seemingly twisting the surrounding space-time.
Thud~~
The next second, Jiang Fan sensed the Exquisite Tower's internal space further expand.
The diameter of the first-layer space expanded to one thousand kilometers.
It had grown countless times compared to before.
What shocked Jiang Fan more was that the second-layer space of the Exquisite Tower was instantly opened.
"The second layer of the Exquisite Tower world has finally been opened?"
Jiang Fan clenched his fists, feeling very excited.
He sensed that the second-layer world was also nearly the same size as the first-layer world.
"What's going on? Why is the second-layer world all fire?"
At this time, Jiang Fan noticed that the second-layer world was a fiery world, covering over a thousand kilometers, shrouded in void flames filled with a destructive aura.
It seemed that any creature entering would be incinerated to ashes.
This was completely different from the first-layer world.
"Master, the second-layer world is indeed a world of flames, filled with Exquisite Tribulation Fire."
"These flames can incinerate all things in the world; numerous evil demons entering here would be burned to ashes."
"Although the Exquisite Tower is a medicinal garden, it is also a huge prison."
"If many demons are captured, they would be imprisoned and refined in the world atop the second layer."
The Exquisite Tower explained with excitement, as it was elated that the second-layer world was opened after many years, indicating that its injuries were gradually healing—a very good sign.
It felt its past power slowly returning.
Being with this master was the right choice; otherwise, it couldn't have recovered its injuries so quickly.
After all, rare materials like the Five-Colored Exquisite Stone are not easy to come by.
