Chapter 351: Main Goal.
One of those things that she has accomplished is enough to be proud. But she had three, so she more than deserved to hold her head high like a pea cock.
Even he, someone from a rival sect, was impressed with her. However, he still didn’t understand why she was telling him all of these when she just stated that most of those who knew about her mutated Life Ability were dead.
That statement of how she had maintained her secret combined well with his suspicion of her going back on her word not to kill him to make him pensive by the time she was done speaking.
So his voice was low as he said, “It seems that you’re a very lucky person. But what does this have to do with me?”
She replied, saying, “I need the coordinates of a world. Your bug-eyed companions can find things better than you, but they are more difficult to find, or I would have approached them for the deal.”
“So the only reason you’re still alive is that I can’t find someone better. You may think of that what you will.”
As soon as he heard this, he relaxed and felt lighter as if a great weight had been lifted off his shoulders.
It is still unclear if she could kill him, as he can always hide from her, but it is always better not to have an enemy that is capable of killing him in his tail, pursuing him.
It is just common sense that fewer dangerous enemies are better. In fact, fewer enemies in general are always a good thing.
So he felt relaxed as he said, “In that case, you’ve come to the right place. I can help you with that. For the right price, of course.”
“But I must ask you this. Why rush for a world now? Why not wait until you’ve converted your Life Ability into a Divine Metac?”
But she smiled in reply and didn’t say anything.
Since she wasn’t willing to tell him her plans, he shrugged and said, “Suit yourself. It is none of my business.”
Then the two of them began to negotiate on a price for information about the coordinates of a world. This is the same request that she made to her rank 5 acquaintance with the Armored Shell Life Ability. So that request was clearly not made on a whim.
The deceiver asked for a high price for the information, which was partly because the information is valuable. But mostly because he doesn’t have the information and will have to buy it from someone who does.
Deceivers are not good trackers, so they are not good at finding things. Seers are the ones who are good at finding things and know a lot. So a rank 5 seer will definitely have the information she wants.
Unfortunately for her, a seer who is worth their salt won’t let her, a forger who belongs to a sect of people who kill others for merits, get close to them at all.
A seer who can find a small world for herself is someone who would definitely not be caught off guard by a meteor falling from the sky, no matter how powerful that meteor is. So she has no choice but to deal with this deceiver, and he for sure has no choice but to rip her off.
As the middleman who helps her contact a seer for the information she wants, he believes that he is entitled to 50% the value of the information. After all, without him, she wouldn’t be able to contact a seer.
To be fair, if not for the beating he just took from her, he would have asked for 100% the value of the information or more. So he is being considerate here even though he is still cheating her.
However, she doesn’t have much of an option in this regard. After all, what is she going to do if she is angry? What other options does she have but to make the deal?
So they came to an agreement with each other and made a deal. To make sure that the deal was valid, they signed a contract backed by the Four Directions Sect.
The deal also forced the two of them to keep the deal a secret, and her mutated Life Ability. When she was sure that everything was in order, she paid the money and left.
She made sure to grumble a lot as she left. And her grumbling wasn’t fake because she really did feel cheated.
But inwardly, she was also happy that she was able to succeed in securing this deal. This is because this is her main goal for participating in the Heavenly Battlefield.
The Five Sects are good at various things. Unfortunately, they can’t work together easily because they live in separate worlds.
The chances for the five sects to meet are either through the Earthly Battlefield or on the Heavenly Battlefield. But during both times, they meet each other to kill each other, so cooperation on anything between them is made further difficult.
As a rank 5 cultivator, she needs a world if she is to become a divine being. But she can’t find a world on her own, and the people of her sect are also bad at finding worlds.
So she needs the help of people who are good at finding worlds. As a rank 5 cultivator, her best chance of getting in touch with the Nexus of Truth Sect and coming to a deal with them is through the Heavenly Battlefield.
There are other ways of transportation between the five domains, but they are unreliable and very expensive because of the danger involved in crossing the world barriers. So she didn’t come to this Heavenly Battlefield to win it. She came to make a transaction.
Now that she has made her transaction, she feels relaxed. It is as if the world has become brighter to her.
So she smiled as she said, “Now, let’s win this.”
