Chapter 260: Hmph, a Scheming and Stingy Woman
"Prepare for the Great Calamity?"
As soon as these words left his mouth, the Dark Deities in the room turned solemn.
The Great Calamity was a double-edged sword hanging over every Dark Deity's head.
When the sword fell, not a single Dark Deity believed they could escape unscathed.
Martial Lord Venerable's expression tightened as he turned to Qi Yuan, "Please elaborate, Senior!"
If it were the Bloodrobe Sword God speaking, he would have brushed it off without a second thought.
But the strength Qi Yuan displayed was undoubtedly mythical.
Moreover, it seemed to be more than just ordinary, reaching the pinnacle of the Canglan Realm, worthy of discussing the Great Calamity.
"Actually, the techniques we cultivate are toxic..." Qi Yuan began, revealing the toxicity of the techniques to the Dark Deities in the room and explaining the original intent behind the establishment of the Origin Spirit Sharing Society.
Hearing Qi Yuan's words, the Dark Deities exchanged glances, each with their own thoughts, but none responded.
Martial Lord Venerable, having witnessed the power of the Bloodrobe Sword God, believed Qi Yuan's words to some extent. His expression changed slightly, "There's actually such a thing."
"Don't you have any opinions to share?" Qi Yuan turned to the six Dark Deities.
"This matter is of great importance. This old man needs to return and verify it," replied a Dark Deity Venerable. "Once verified, I will certainly give you an answer, Senior!"
Obviously, he didn't believe Qi Yuan's words and was unwilling to hand over the techniques to Qi Yuan.
Returning to verify was just an excuse; he would take a million years to verify if he wanted. The other Dark Deities echoed similar sentiments.
Qi Yuan turned to Jasmine Great Venerable, his face full of anticipation. "You love me so much, why don't you bring out the Mythic Treasure to support my venture? Once I succeed, I'll definitely treat you well!"
Qi Yuan was trying to sweet-talk Jasmine Great Venerable.
Jasmine Great Venerable smiled politely, "This matter is of great importance, and I alone cannot make the decision. I'll have to go back and ask the others for their opinions before giving you an answer."
Qi Yuan was quite disappointed, "It seems you don't love me enough."
This Jasmine Great Venerable, who kept claiming to love him, turned out to be so stingy.
Hmph, what a scheming and stingy woman!
At this moment, Seven Wounds Elder narrowed his eyes and spoke softly, "I'm quite interested in this Origin Spirit Sharing Society and am willing to donate some techniques."
Qi Yuan's eyes lit up. "You've got vision, my friend. Joining me will never be a loss!"
Seven Wounds Elder chuckled, "In a few days, I'll send someone to deliver the techniques to the Pathfinding Palace."
"No problem," Qi Yuan said, feeling quite pleased.
Finally, the Origin Spirit Sharing Society had found a customer.
"After some time, we'll prepare jade slips for the Origin Spirit Sharing Society, containing the techniques I've uploaded.
The techniques you give me will be converted into points, which you can use to exchange for useful techniques," Qi Yuan enthusiastically explained to his customer.
Naturally, the task of creating the jade slips was assigned to the Pathfinding Palace.
With just Wind Lord's financial resources, they couldn't compare to the Pathfinding Palace.
"Sure, sure," Seven Wounds Elder said amicably, but in truth, he didn't seem to care about the techniques Qi Yuan mentioned on the jade slips.
"Seven Wounds Elder, if you have any friends, please spread the word about this. I'll give you points," Qi Yuan remained enthusiastic.
All beginnings are difficult.
But on Blue Star, even without tangible products, they could build such a large pyramid scheme. The Origin Spirit Sharing Society, with the reputation of the Origin Spirit, should have no problem spreading its influence in the Canglan Realm. If it couldn't... it would only mean... the Origin Spirit was incompetent.
Next, Qi Yuan explained the point system to Seven Wounds Elder.
The techniques given to Qi Yuan were divided into two types. One type was publicly accessible, placed in the society's jade slips for others to exchange, and these techniques earned higher points. The other type was only viewable by Qi Yuan, and these also earned higher points.
Everyone chatted happily, the atmosphere warm and friendly.
...
About two hours later, Seven Wounds Elder and Jasmine Great Venerable, along with the other Dark Deities, left the Pathfinding Palace.
Seven Wounds Elder, clad in a hemp robe, stooped over, slowly transformed into a stream of light and disappeared.
At this moment, Jasmine Great Venerable's figure appeared, causing Seven Wounds Elder to halt in his tracks.
"Seven Wounds Elder, do you believe the Bloodrobe Sword God's words?" Jasmine Great Venerable asked curiously.
The toxicity of the techniques was too shocking to believe.
Initially, Jasmine Great Venerable had her doubts, but remembering what that person had said about the Dark Sun, she became suspicious again.
Could it be true? But even if it were, Jasmine Great Venerable wouldn't dare to get involved in this mess.
The Dark Sun had already made its move, and Qi Yuan's death was certain.
Joining the Origin Spirit Sharing Society now might also invite retaliation from the Dark Sun. Of course, even if she knew this, she wouldn't warn the other Dark Deities.
She secretly wished for more of them to die.
"Believe it or not, what does it matter?" Seven Wounds Elder said nonchalantly, "I don't have many years left. I might not survive the next Great Calamity, so giving away the techniques is no big deal."
"I never expected you to be so carefree, Senior. It's admirable," Jasmine Great Venerable exclaimed.
Seven Wounds Elder seemed to have thought of something and blurted out, "Since you admire me so much, why not give me the Mythic Treasure? With it, perhaps I can survive the Great Calamity!"
Jasmine Great Venerable was stunned by his words.
She never expected to hear such a phrase again.
"Farewell." Jasmine Great Venerable frowned inwardly and let out a cold harrumph before leaving.
The Elder of Seven Wounds chuckled, his expression profound, and in that moment, his figure disappeared from sight.
...
Five days later.
In the Quest for Dao Palace, Qi Yuan opened his eyes and looked at the jade slip sent by Martial Lord Venerable.
Within the jade slip, the progress of the Origin Spirit Shared Society was recorded.
"Our Origin Spirit Shared Society finally has its own home!" Qi Yuan thought excitedly.
These days, the Quest for Dao Palace had been working tirelessly to create the jade slips that Qi Yuan desired.
"This is the master jade slip, and all techniques will be recorded and stored here," Martial Lord Venerable said solemnly.
The master jade slip was a Dark Deity magical artifact, extremely precious, and it was personally refined by Martial Lord Venerable himself.
"Yes, it's great. With this, I finally won't have to worry about being muted again," Qi Yuan said, recalling his experience of being muted in the Divine Flower Society.
He remembered the Divine Flower Society's Grand Master well.
"The rest of the jade slips have already been sent to all the Dark Deities in the Phoenix Heavenly Domain. These Dark Deities will each receive one," Martial Lord Venerable explained.
"Any medium-sized or larger sect who wants a jade slip can have one sent to them."
At this point, Martial Lord Venerable had already resigned himself to this fate.
Qi Yuan was simply too powerful for him to defeat.
Since that was the case, it was better to let Qi Yuan have his way.
Being a servant to a Mythic powerhouse wasn't something to be ashamed of.
Qi Yuan nodded and turned to Martial Lord Venerable, "You've done a good job. By the way, how is the Origin Spirit activation ceremony going?"
One of the main reasons Qi Yuan came to the Quest for Dao Palace was not only to obtain techniques but also to utilize their influence to spread the reach of the Origin Spirit Shared Society to other realms.
The Quest for Dao Palace had a presence in twenty realms across the Waveless Ocean Realm, covering more than half of the entire realm.
Martial Lord Venerable's expression turned complex, "I have already informed the headquarters about this matter, and they said that during the celebration, someone will come to announce the results."
"Is it tomorrow?" Qi Yuan murmured, "I hope everything goes well for the Origin Spirit Shared Society."
Time flew by, and in the blink of an eye, the day of the Origin Spirit Shared Society's celebration arrived.
The Wind Lord, as the administrator of the Origin Spirit Shared Society, was all smiles as he greeted every guest.
Even when he encountered Jasmine Great Venerable, he maintained a cheerful demeanor, not letting their past conflicts affect his hospitality.
The celebration was a joyous occasion, with a total of fifteen Dark Deities in attendance.
These Dark Deities were mostly from the Phoenix Heavenly Domain, with a couple of them from the Demon and Fiend Domain.
At this moment, the Seven-Injury Elder sat by the side, resembling a lazy old turtle.
"Seven-Injury Elder, this Bloodrobe Sword God is truly extraordinary. There are several top-grade Heaven-grade techniques within this jade slip." A young Dark Deity spoke up.
This Dark Deity was named Long Can, from a noble background, and his father was also a Great Venerable.
"Top-grade Heaven-grade?" The Seven-Injury Elder was surprised upon hearing this.
The technique he cultivated was mid-grade Heaven-grade.
Top-grade Heaven-grade techniques, he had seen them but never obtained them.
Hearing that the Bloodrobe Sword God possessed top-grade Heaven-grade techniques and was even willing to share them, this indeed surprised him.
"Jasmine Great Venerable, could it be that you gave your Mythic Treasure Vault to the Bloodrobe Sword God?" The Seven-Injury Elder joked.
The Jasmine Great Venerable smiled faintly, "My Mythic Treasure Vault is the foundation of my standing, how could I possibly give it away?"
Perhaps, if not for the Mythic Treasure Vault, then the Pure Love Warrior would not have been so easily subdued by her."
The Seven-Injury Elder heard this but didn't respond, instead, he probed with his divine sense into the jade slip.
He revealed a complex expression, "If only I had encountered these techniques when I was younger, what a pity. Now, these techniques are of no use to me."
The techniques were indeed good, but they were of no use to him.
Top-grade Heaven-grade techniques were already the limit of the Waveland Realm.
The Dark Deity's path was already set, and he couldn't easily change techniques.
Therefore, Qi Yuan took out the Origin Spirit Shared Society's name, but it didn't attract much attention from the other Dark Deities.
At most, he could exchange some techniques for the benefit of his subordinates' factions.
However, upon reaching the Dark Deity realm, what they cared about was the Great Calamity, who would care about subordinates? Perhaps only the legendary Divine Techniques could stir the hearts of these Dark Deities.
But... there were no Divine Techniques in the Waveland Realm.
Divine Techniques only existed in legends.
The fact that the Bloodrobe Sword God could bring out top-grade Heaven-grade techniques was already surprising enough.
He glanced at the techniques and merely sighed in admiration.
Unlike these Dark Deities, the sect masters of medium-sized factions who obtained the jade slips were filled with excitement upon seeing the techniques inside.
Before reaching the Dark Deity realm, changing techniques was a normal occurrence.
In the Quest for Dao Palace, everyone was in high spirits.
The Purple Mansion Cultivators also had smiles on their faces.
In their own territory, they had to serve as waiters for others' opening ceremonies, and they felt bitter inside but had no choice but to comply.
Just at this moment, Qi Yuan stepped forward with a smile, "I didn't expect so many people to come, it seems that everyone has high hopes for the prospects of my Origin Spirit Shared Society."
With so many people, if they were to offer their techniques, coupled with the Divine Techniques that Shen Wushen brought from the Upper Realm, Qi Yuan felt that his 'Qi Yuan Scripture' could now simulate the Divine Infant section.
Of course, for the Golden Core section, the more, the better.
"Greetings to the Bloodrobe Sword God!"
"The Origin Spirit Shared Society has gathered techniques together, this is the blessing of the Waveland Realm.
These Dark Deities also flattered appropriately.
The atmosphere on the stage was harmonious and pleasant.
After some small talk, Qi Yuan finally got to the point.
"The purpose of establishing the Origin Spirit Shared Society is clear to everyone, it is to prepare for the Great Calamity.
Therefore, I need an endless supply of techniques, and I also need everyone to offer some techniques! The techniques of our Origin Spirit Shared Society can also be exchanged for others!"
Qi Yuan said earnestly, his smile radiant.
"I wish to offer a hundred Heaven-grade techniques."
"Three Xuan-grade techniques!"
"Seven Xuan-grade techniques!"
These Dark Deities chimed in.
However, the techniques they offered were at most Xuan-grade, and none of them offered Heaven-grade techniques.
The Seven-Injury Elder saw this and his eyes flickered, "I wish to offer eight Heaven-grade techniques, along with other techniques."
Eight Heaven-grade techniques, this had already emptied his entire collection.
Hearing the Seven-Injury Elder's words, the other Dark Deities' expressions changed slightly.
However, they still didn't change their minds, apparently not convinced by the Origin Spirit Shared Society.
The Jasmine Great Venerable smiled lightly, "The Phoenix Palace lacks techniques, I have no techniques to offer.
I specifically created a Jade-grade technique and offer it to the Origin Spirit Shared Society."
Qi Yuan heard this and was taken aback, glancing at the Jasmine Great Venerable.
For some reason, Qi Yuan thought of those on the Moon Gazing Continent who criticized their boyfriends or girlfriends for giving cheap handmade gifts online.
At this moment, he also felt like criticizing the Jasmine Great Venerable.
Hmph, such a stingy woman! The other Dark Deities saw this and also wanted to laugh but dared not.
The Jasmine Great Venerable... what did this mean? Qi Yuan restrained himself from looking at the Jasmine Great Venerable, he had high emotional intelligence and managed his emotions well, never losing his temper in important situations.
He turned his gaze to the Dark Deity messenger from another domain in the Quest for Dao Palace, his face revealing a hint of anticipation.
In truth, what he anticipated the most was for the other Dark Deities from different domains to understand his good intentions, and for them to unite together to prepare for the Great Calamity.
At this moment, the Dark Deity messenger stood up, his face showing a hint of regret, "The Bloodrobe Sword God, the Dark Sun's Lei Family Four Generals are on their way here, and the ceremony is about to begin."
