Eternal Tale

Chapter 355: Nine Heavens Celestial Sound Formation Disk

“Moo~~~” Brother Ox’s eyes widened as he let out a long, forceful snort.

Xiao Chi was equally dumbfounded. "A single batch of pills can yield such a significant return? Imagine the possibilities with multiple batches!"

“Sister Crane, you’re clever, but your mind is still five points short of your second brother’s. Don’t get complacent,” Chen Xun remarked with a smile.

“Understood, big brother.” Sister Crane nodded earnestly, her bright eyes full of determination. “I’ll keep studying diligently.”

Brother Ox nudged Chen Xun with satisfaction, his tail wagging happily. Chen Xun patted him lightly in return, their silent brotherly bond evident.

<hr>

“Heh… heh…” Mo Fuyang let out an awkward chuckle before speaking cautiously. “Senior, high-tier pills are notorious for their losses during production. You’re assuming a 100% success rate, which is unlikely.”

“And refining high-tier pills is often handled by Void Refinement cultivators. Deity Transformation experts typically don’t have the lifespan to spare for such endeavors.”

“Mo Fuyang.”

“Yes, senior?!”

“Your presence is evident without you constantly speaking,” Chen Xun said with a faint smirk.

“...” Mo Fuyang quickly shut his mouth, beads of sweat forming on his brow.

<hr>

“So, what of ten-thousand-year-old spirit herbs? You haven’t mentioned their classification,” Chen Xun inquired, his tone calm. “I’ve gathered quite a few such herbs. Surely, they’re abundant in this great world?”

“Senior...” Mo Fuyang hesitated, choosing his words carefully. “Such herbs are referred to as ‘treasure herbs’ here. Their value isn’t fixed and is typically determined through auctions. Prices depend on their effects, as not all herbs can reach a ten-thousand-year maturity.”

“I see,” Chen Xun nodded thoughtfully, already forming plans in his mind. “Interesting.”

<hr>

“Little friend, may I see the spirit stones you’re accustomed to using? Preferably mid-grade,” Chen Xun asked, adopting a tone of mild curiosity.

Mo Fuyang rummaged through his storage ring, pulling out an assortment of items with visible embarrassment. “Senior, I’m currently low on resources. Between purchasing my ship passage and advancing to Nascent Soul, I’ve spent most of my savings.”

Chen Xun observed the assortment of tools and trinkets until Brother Ox’s gaze fixated on a particular object: a small black formation disk.

“Moo?!” Brother Ox’s interest was piqued.

Mo Fuyang noticed and quickly explained, “That’s the Yellow-Rank ‘Nine Heavens Celestial Sound Formation Disk.’ It broadcasts regional news and alerts. It’s invaluable for independent cultivators like me to avoid disasters and stay informed.”n/ô/vel/b//jn dot c//om

Chen Xun raised an eyebrow. “How intriguing. Can you demonstrate?”

<hr>

With a nod, Mo Fuyang activated the disk, channeling a thread of spiritual energy into it. Immediately, a voice emanated:

“Xuanwei Heavens, Southern Yu Continent, Mengmu Sea Domain…”

“Today, heavenly fire descended, obliterating Luoyan Island. Countless lives were lost. Divinations suggest this calamity may occur again. Cultivators nearby are urged to evacuate immediately.”

“A fleet has returned to find their homeland destroyed. They are now seeking refuge with other forces.”

“The price of Mengmu wood continues to soar, reaching record highs! Merchants from the Southern Yu Continent’s coastal regions are flocking across the seas to secure trade deals. Many forces have profited immensely, reaping substantial rewards.”

“To support these merchants, sea-dwelling clans have dispatched numerous Deity Transformation experts to escort them, fostering long-term alliances.”

“Meanwhile, the Youlong Dao Academy has announced a new Dao Child. Senior True Lord Ying Xuan personally declared this prodigy to be of a sacred spiritual root—a rarity surpassing heavenly roots. In three thousand years, this Dao Child will compete with others across the academies.”

“This revelation has sparked widespread discussion. Sacred spiritual roots are said to appear once in tens of millions of individuals, marking this individual as an unparalleled genius.”

<hr>

Chen Xun, Brother Ox, Sister Crane, and Xiao Chi listened intently, their expressions a mix of fascination and awe. The sheer breadth of information was astounding.

“What a sophisticated civilization,” Chen Xun muttered, his voice tinged with admiration. “This level of information sharing is transformative. It elevates cultivation beyond mere survival into an interconnected system of progress.”

The profound implications of such a system were clear to him. Their small domain’s practices now seemed outdated—a relic of a simpler time.

<hr>

“Little friend, that will suffice for now,” Chen Xun said with a nod.

Mo Fuyang deactivated the disk, silencing its updates. “Senior, this formation disk continuously receives real-time updates. It’s a treasure for staying informed.”

“Moo?”

“Ah?”

“Wait, why did it stop?”

Brother Ox, Sister Crane, and Xiao Chi were visibly disappointed. The revelation that they were in the Mengmu Sea Domain had only deepened their curiosity.

Brother Ox’s eyes gleamed with newfound interest in the formation disk. Its intricate craftsmanship—especially the core crystal—left him both puzzled and impressed.

<hr>

“Little friend, if this Yellow-Rank disk covers the sea domain, what about the higher ranks?” Chen Xun inquired.

“A profound-grade disk broadcasts news across the Xuanwei Heavens,” Mo Fuyang explained. “An earth-grade disk covers the entire Taiyi Great World, while a heaven-grade disk can relay events from all three thousand great worlds, including the Central World, Wujian.”

Mo Fuyang’s voice carried an undercurrent of reverence. “I’ve never seen an earth-grade disk, let alone a heaven-grade one. My knowledge is limited to what’s said about them.”

“The Taiyi Great World truly lives up to its name,” Chen Xun mused, his tone a mix of awe and anticipation. “And where might one acquire such a formation disk? Are they produced by a particular sect?”

Brother Ox exhaled sharply, his gaze steady on Chen Xun. The possibilities seemed endless, and they had only scratched the surface of this vast world.
