Chapter 787 - 325: I’m Planning to Kill a Tier Eight Demon Beast (Part 2)

"Is Fellow Daoist Sun now residing in the Immortal City?"

Chu Ning vaguely remembered that although the other party was a Loose Cultivator, he cultivated overseas.

The middle-aged cultivator with the surname Sun nodded and smiled:

"I settled in the Immortal City fifteen years ago, originally intending to become neighbors with you, but I didn’t expect you had already left.

Fellow Daoist Chang Lingshan often mentions your name, quite nostalgic.

I imagine he would be very pleased to know you’re back in the city."

Chu Ning smiled and said:

"I have some matters to discuss with Fellow Daoist Wu first, and once that is settled, I will visit Fellow Daoist Chang’s cave mansion."

"In that case, Mr. Sun will take his leave first." The middle-aged man with the surname Sun cupped his hands and left first.

Wu Lingwei led Chu Ning into the trading room.

Bai Ruo naturally stayed outside to wait.

Seeing this, Chu Ning said, "Miss Bai, why not come inside? I’m going to purchase some things this time.

Later, I have something to inquire about from Fellow Daoist Wu, so it would be convenient if Miss Bai could help me fetch some items."

Upon hearing Chu Ning’s words, Wu Lingwei invited Bai Ruo to enter the trading room as well.

Chu Ning casually took out a Jade Scroll from the Storage Bag and handed it to Wu Lingwei.

Seeing the contents recorded in the Jade Scroll, Wu Lingwei’s face immediately showed a hint of surprise.

"Fellow Daoist, you need so many things this time?"

No wonder Wu Lingwei was surprised, as the items recorded in Chu Ning’s Jade Scroll were indeed numerous.

In terms of variety, it wasn’t particularly special, but for each category, he required over a hundred units.

For example, for the Tier Seven Demon Pill, he requested a hundred pills.

Even with Frost Moon Pavilion’s vast resources, they couldn’t immediately provide a hundred Tier Seven Demon Beast Demon Pills.

After all, hunting Tier Seven Demon Beasts requires a Golden Core Late Stage Peak cultivator or higher.

And even if such cultivators hunted them, they might not necessarily trade them.

Upon hearing Wu Lingwei’s words, Chu Ning said, "Prepare as much as the pavilion can, and for the rest, I’ll gather from other places."

He intended to use these for alchemy.

After fifteen years of cultivation, his elixir supply had already been exhausted.

Though he still had Snow Crystal Mushroom Spiritual Liquid, his Dantian also held a Gold Spirit Seed.

However, he still needed to stockpile some elixirs, as he was now residing in a cave mansion on an island.

Collecting materials for alchemy isn’t that easy, either.

Wu Lingwei nodded and then handed the Jade Scroll to Bai Ruo.

"Go and talk to Junior Brother Tang, and try your best to meet Fellow Daoist Chu’s material needs."

"Yes!" Bai Ruo took it and promptly went out.

Only then did Chu Ning ask Wu Lingwei:

"Fellow Daoist Wu, does your pavilion have any storage of Tier Eight Water-Attribute Demon Beast Essence Souls, or do you know of any channels to obtain them?"

"Tier Eight Demon Beast Essence Soul?"

Upon hearing Chu Ning’s question, Wu Lingwei appeared more surprised than when she saw the Jade Scroll.

She then gave a wry smile:

"You surely think highly of our pavilion; a Tier Eight Demon Beast is on par with a Nascent Soul Cultivator.

Such treasures are surely in the hands of a Nascent Soul Senior."

Upon hearing this, Chu Ning raised an eyebrow slightly.

"I wonder if Changkong Hall has any, do you know?"

Frost Moon Pavilion is backed by Changkong Hall, which isn’t a secret.

After a moment of hesitation, Wu Lingwei said:

"I doubt it. The Hall’s Guardian Elders haven’t been out for years and seem to be in secluded cultivation recently."

At this, Chu Ning couldn’t help but feel slightly disappointed.

Of course, no expression was shown on his face; he only smiled faintly and said:

"Then let’s forget it, I was merely asking casually."

Then, Chu Ning turned to ask:

"By the way, Fellow Daoist Wu, I’ve heard that many Tier Eight Demon Beasts have recently appeared in the Central Sea Region.

I wonder if Frost Moon Pavilion has collected any information on this.

If I ever go to the Central Sea, I can avoid any Great Demons beforehand and not fall into any traps."

Wu Lingwei’s face lit up with a smile:

"Fellow Daoist, you indeed asked the right person; our pavilion has recently collected and organized some information."

Saying this, Wu Lingwei casually took out a piece of Jade Scroll and handed it to Chu Ning.

"It not only records information about the Tier Eight Great Demons in the Central Sea Region but also some Tier Seven Great Demons.

However, it’s only been half a year, so the information might not be complete."

Hearing Wu Lingwei’s words, Chu Ning curiously took it, scanned the Jade Scroll slightly, and was slightly surprised:

"So many?"

Indeed, the Jade Scroll provided by Wu Lingwei recorded no less than six Tier Eight Demon Beasts in the Central Sea Region.

And near a hundred Tier Seven Demon Beasts were documented.

Though the Endless Sea is vast, and these demon beasts are scattered across various sea regions, all quite distant from each other.

But with so many Tier Seven and Tier Eight Demon Beasts in the Central Sea Region, it’s no wonder Golden Core Cultivators would be afraid to venture out to sea.

Wu Lingwei nodded with a serious expression.

"The Endless Sea is too large and connected to the Boundless Sea; we always thought there might be no demon beasts within the Boundless Sea.

Now it seems that might not be the case, and there are likely demon beasts in some deep-sea areas.

So who knows how many Great Demons there are in the Northern Cold Land."

With a sigh, Wu Lingwei said:

"Thirty years ago in the Snow Mist Valley battle, we thought the Demon Race had suffered significant losses.

But now it seems, the demon beasts in these sea regions are still numerous.

This doesn’t even account for the demon beasts in the strait and the interior of the three land masses."

While listening, Chu Ning browsed the information on demon beasts in the Jade Scroll one by one, then discreetly stored the Jade Scroll in his Storage Bag.
