Shennong Dao Master

After Wang Shuning’s reminder, Zhao Xing and his companions had a direction for the exchange.

Meanwhile, in Xialing Blessed Land, many people had already arrived, and powerful figures setting up stalls for trading were everywhere.

This was one of the features of the Dharma Assembly; some people might not come seeking the Medicine King Realm, but the Rare Treasures Conference was also a treasure hunting event, where they might exchange for something they needed.

"Ji Si, it’s up to you now." Yang Baihe said, "The Purple Ganoderma Holy Spring Water and the Nine Shining Heart Pearl mentioned by Wang Shuning, I have never even heard of them. It’s up to you to find them."

Wang Shuning only knew which types of treasures might be selected, but he did not teach Zhao Xing where to find them. Zhao Xing would have to rely on his own skills. It was impossible for someone to smoothly arrange everything.

"You are a Fate Master of the Heavenly Master Mansion, you should know the Qiankun Treasure Hunting Technique, right?" Yang Baihe asked.

"The Qiankun Treasure Hunting Technique is indeed a calculation method, but it is mainly applied to ’retrieving lost items’, and not used at this moment." Ji Si said. "At this time, we apply the Ten Directions Divinations."

"You’ve already learned the Ten Directions Divinations?" Zhao Xing looked at Ji Si with some surprise.

He was quite knowledgeable about the profession of Fate Master. The Ten Directions Divinations was created by the Imperial Heavenly Master who climbed to the top of the Ten Directions Mountain and obtained the first hexagram after comprehending the Ten Directions Life Pattern.

It has great power but little fame; many people do not even know of the existence of this spell.

Only the direct disciples of the Heavenly Master Mansion can learn it. Zhao Xing did not expect that after entering the mansion for three hundred years, Ji Si had already reached such a level.

"I’ve only learned just a bit of it." Ji Si said modestly.

"Omens with the Burning Turtle, Heavenly Strategy, Star Divination, Bird Divination, Dream Divination, Protection Divination, Sign Divination, Heavenly Mechanism Disc... how much have you learned?" Zhao Xing asked curiously.

"I have a rough understanding of each."

Zhao Xing excitedly clapped: "Marvelous, Mr. Ji!"

No wonder the Fate Master ’Tang Menghe’ in the other team was scared off by Ji Si. Even if subjected to the hits of cause and effect, he preferred to avoid direct confrontation with Ji Si.

Ji Si’s ability to learn the Ten Directions Divinations was akin to a cultivator like himself in the Tao Domain Realm learning the Heart Sealing Technique.

Strictly speaking, Ji Si was not being modest when he said he only learned a bit.

Because the Ten Directions Divinations is just a portion of the Ten Directions Divinations.

However, by learning only one-seventh of its Law Chapter, I achieved a qualitative leap. Extending this to others, Ji Si’s strength could not be judged by superficial realms anymore.

"Zhen Yi Li Bing Xin Kun, Ding Qian Wu Kan Ji Xun Gate."

"Lost objects on Geng Day can be found on Dui, Ren and Gui can be sought on Gen."

Ji Si took out the Heavenly Mechanism Disc with a black and white base, and a sun and moon needle to start casting a spell.

Standing by the side, Yang Baihe was somewhat confused and nudged Zhao Xing: "What’s happening? Didn’t he say that the Qiankun Treasure Hunting Technique couldn’t be used? This seems like the Qiankun Treasure Hunting Technique."

Yang Baihe, who was also a man of wide experience, had collaborated with Fate Masters from the Heavenly Master Mansion and knew at once that this was the formula of the Qiankun Treasure Hunting Technique.

"Don’t forget, we have competitors." Zhao Xing’s lips curved up slightly.

Yang Baihe immediately understood: "You mean Ji Si is setting a trap? Like a Karma Maze, or a Heavenly Mystery Trap?"

Zhao Xing nodded.

The deduction by Fate Masters consumes mental power, but the mana and mental power to set up a Karma Maze is generally less than the cost for strangers to crack it.

It’s like empty granaries and fake military camps on the battlefield.

Ren Qiu or Tang Menghe, no matter how hard they strive, might just end up going in circles for nothing.

Going in circles would be a good description.

A Fate Master’s Cause and Effect Trap could very well cause someone to fall into a pit.

"Your Great Zhou truly has no shortage of talents." Yang Baihe sighed again.

...

"On Jia Day, seek east in Zhen Hexagram, on Yi Time, southward find the drifting Li Fire. Bing Xin, southwest on Kun’s firm ground, Ding Qian, northwest asking the firmament."

In the Medicine King Realm, within the palaces of an ancient city in Xialing Blessed Land, the plump Ren Qiu looked at the words revealed in the Cause and Effect River and couldn’t help but sneer.

"The Qiankun Treasure Hunting Technique of the Heavenly Master Mansion is mostly used to retrieve lost items, just a little trick, trying to deceive me."

"There’s no need to go northwest; it’s certainly a trap." Ren Qiu waved his hand, erasing the scene before him.

"Ren Qiu, how should we proceed?" Lord Sang Yu asked.

"We look for our own while they look for theirs." Ren Qiu said, "At this time, prioritize the tasks of the lord to make the subsequent exchanges smoother. There’s no need to deal with them now."

"Then where should we search for the treasure of the Medicine King Banquet?"

"The treasure is natural, and the benefit lies in the southeast." Ren Qiu said, "Heading southeast, we will surely gain something."

"Okay, we’ll follow your advice." Lord Sang Yu nodded.

"Hold on." Ren Qiu suddenly closed his eyes, and waves of green gas emanated from his body, merging into the void, forming scenes.

"What’s he doing?" Lord Sang Yu asked Lord Fengyang.

"Setting traps." Lord Fengyang explained, "Ren Qiu thinks Ji Si set a trap, so instead of being fooled, she sets up a few traps herself, one to interfere with others, and two to protect herself."

...

In Xialing Blessed Land, Haodong City.

The usually quiet Haodong City was now bustling, with many cultivators setting up stalls in town.

"Buying my treasure will surely get you into the Medicine King Mansion for the banquet!"

"I have a complete set of Feather Emperor Coins! Including the Mother Coin, this is a limited edition!"

"Fellow Daoist, how about buying a piece of Pear Heart Wood? A variant Pear Heart Wood, comparable to the Life and Death Dao Domain Realm, for just thirteen Feather Emperor Coins, you won’t regret it!"

"Do you even know what you’re talking about, claiming my Li Emperor Cup is fake?"

"Lived for hundreds of thousands of years and still can’t fork out ten thousand Five Emperors’ Money, humph, pauper!"

"..."

Ji Si pushed along a floral chair, accompanied by Yang Baihe, walking along the broad street, looking around.
