Conferred God: Started from Swallowing the Heaven-Repairing Stone

Chapter 38: Want to Exchange Treasures

After all, it was his own business, and he couldn't let others express it on his behalf. After Bixiao started, Zhao Gongming immediately said:

"That day after I met my junior brother on Jin'ao Island, I don't know why my magic weapon, the twenty-four Dinghai Divine Pearls, began to tremble inexplicably. No matter what I did, I couldn't suppress it. It was not until I left my junior brother that they regained their calmness."

"At that time, I wanted to ask you about the reason, but my master had something to tell me, so I couldn't disturb him, which delayed me."

"Until recently, I heard that Junior Brother had left Jin'ao Island, so I asked Junior Sister Shiji to take me here to visit him."

After listening to what Zhao Gongming said, Ao Bing finally figured out why he came to see him, which was for the twelve Dinghai Divine Pearls in his hand.

Apart from them, Ao Bing has no other treasures in his hands that can resonate with the twenty-four Dinghai Divine Pearls.

Thinking of this, Ao Bing did not hide anything and directly took out the twelve Dinghai Divine Pearls and placed them in front of Zhao Gongming.

"I think the strange behavior of the twenty-four Dinghai Divine Pearls in Senior Brother's hand was caused by them."

As soon as the voice fell, twelve Dinghai Magic Pearls appeared in a row, strung together and suspended in front of Zhao Gongming. They were crystal clear and emitted five-colored rays of light.

"This……"

"It's the Dinghai Divine Pearl!"

"But how is this possible?!"

Looking at the twelve Dinghai Divine Pearls in front of him, Zhao Gongming stood up in shock.

He always felt that there was some opportunity related to him in Ao Bing, which caused the abnormality of the twenty-four Dinghai Divine Pearls.

This matter involved opportunities and could not be delayed, so he asked Shiji to introduce him to Ao Bing. He had repeatedly shown his goodwill in the past in order to gain opportunities related to him from Ao Bing.

Although he guessed that Ao Bing had an opportunity related to himself, he did not guess that this opportunity would be the Dinghai Divine Pearl.

Not only Zhao Gongming was shocked, but the others were also shocked when they saw Ao Bing take out the Dinghai Divine Pearl.

Because in their impression, there were only 24 Dinghai Shenzhu. But it turned out that Ao Bing still had 12.

What's going on? When Master Tongtian passed down the Dinghai Divine Pearl, he didn't say that there were not twenty-four, but thirty-six.

"When the world was first created, the four seas were surging and turbulent, and it was difficult to calm down the vast wilderness."

"When the Heavenly Dao saw this, it moved the heavens and derived thirty-six divine beads, which fell on the four seas. One could see the five-colored rays of light were dim and heavy, suppressing all things. At this point, the four seas were settled!"

“And these thirty-six magic beads are therefore named as the Dinghai Magical Pearls.”

"After the Ancestral Dragon descended to the world and unified the four seas, the Dinghai Divine Pearl fulfilled its destiny and appeared in the four seas. Twelve of them were presented to the Ancestral Dragon and passed down to the Dragon Palace of the Four Seas. These are the twelve beads in my hand."

"The other twenty-four fell into the hands of Daozu. They were then placed on the Dividing Treasure Rock and obtained by Master. These are the twenty-four in Senior Brother's hand."

Seeing that everyone was confused, Ao Bing explained.

The history of the dragon clan is much older than that of the Jiejiao. Even before the Taoist Patriarch established the Xuanmen, the dragon clan was already the overlord of heaven and earth, truly coexisting with the world.

Therefore, even the disciples of the three religions do not know as many secrets of the world as Ao Bing, the descendant of the Ancestral Dragon.

"I see!"

After coming to his senses, Zhao Gongming looked at Ao Bing embarrassedly, not knowing how to start the conversation.

He wanted to ask Ao Bing for the twelve Dinghai Divine Pearls. It would have been fine if he didn't know about it before, but now that he knew, he would not let the twelve Dinghai Divine Pearls slip away from him no matter what.

The twenty-four Dinghai Shenzhu were almost at the level of the best innate spiritual treasures. The thirty-six Dinghai Shenzhu were definitely the best innate spiritual treasures.

And it is the best quality among them, powerful enough to rank in the top thirty, or even the top twenty!
If he missed such a treasure, Zhao Gongming felt that he would never be able to let it go in his life.

Moreover, Zhao Gongming also felt that his chance to break through to the Quasi-Saint level might depend on these thirty-six Dinghai Divine Pearls.

First of all, his entire path is placed on the Dinghai Divine Pearl. Naturally, the stronger the Dinghai Divine Pearl is, the higher his cultivation will be.

Secondly, if the Golden Immortal wants to break through to become a Quasi-Sage, he needs to use the innate spiritual treasure to entrust the three thoughts of good, evil and self, and kill the three corpses. And the innate spiritual treasure used to kill the corpses is not just any spiritual treasure. It is best to have something of the same origin, so that there will be no accidents when merging in the future.

The Dinghai Divine Pearl was definitely enough to kill the corpses, but because Zhao Gongming only had 24 Dinghai Divine Pearls, he could only use them to kill two corpses at most.

If he wanted to kill the third corpse, he would need to find another innate spiritual treasure. But if he got the twelve Dinghai Shenzhu in Ao Bing's hand, he would not need to find another innate spiritual treasure.

Thirty-six Dinghai Divine Pearls were enough for him to kill the three corpses. And because the thirty-six Dinghai Divine Pearls were of the same origin, it would not be too difficult to use them to kill the three corpses and then fuse them together.

The fusion of the three corpses is the key for a quasi-saint to break through and become a Hunyuan Daluo Jinxian.

Therefore, the innate spiritual treasure used when beheading the three corpses is extremely important. It is related to the future breakthrough of the Hunyuan realm. Unless it is absolutely necessary, you must not compromise.

Zhao Gongming didn't want to compromise, so he was eager to get the twelve Dinghai Divine Pearls in Ao Bing's hands to save himself.

If these twelve Dinghai Divine Pearls were in the hands of someone else, then in order to achieve enlightenment, Zhao Gongming would snatch them away even by force.

But Ao Bing is his junior fellow apprentice. If he dares to steal Ao Bing's treasure, even without Tongtian's intervention, the other disciples of Jiejiao will not let him go.

Attacking fellow disciples is a big taboo in Jiejiao.

There are so many disciples in Jiejiao, and the difference in their cultivation is huge. If there is no such rule, they can attack their fellow disciples at will. Wouldn't that make everyone in danger? How is it different from the Demonic Path?

Since they were from the same sect, Zhao Gongming could not take any action. He could only discuss with Ao Bing to see what price he would have to pay to get the Dinghai Divine Pearl from him.

But this was the first time that Zhao Gongming had to ask for help from someone, and for a moment, he really didn't know how to start the conversation.

Seeing this, the three sisters standing by couldn't help but feel anxious. They wanted to speak up for him, but since Zhao Gongming didn't take the initiative to initiate this matter, how could they speak up for him?
Fortunately, Ao Bing noticed Zhao Gongming's thoughts and took the initiative to say, "Big Brother, do you want these twelve Dinghai Divine Pearls in my hand?"

"Yes, I won't hide it from you, Junior Brother. This item is related to my path and is extremely important to me. As long as you are willing to give it up, I will do it no matter how much it costs."

Seeing that Ao Bing gave him a way out, Zhao Gongming straightened his face and spoke very solemnly.

When it comes to the Dao, it means that you must get it. After all, the Dao is above everything else. No matter how good the magic weapon and elixir are, or even life, they are not worth mentioning in front of the Dao.

"Brother, don't be so nervous. The twelve Dinghai Divine Pearls are only mid-grade innate spiritual treasures. They are not important to me, so I can't give them up."

"I heard that you have a magic weapon called the Dragon Binding Rope. Since you want the Dinghai Divine Pearl, I will use this treasure to exchange for it. What do you think?"

The Dinghai Shenzhen Pearl is not the Yiyuan Dao Fu and the Xiantian Four Symbols Pearl. For Ao Bing, it is not something that cannot be parted with.

Since Zhao Gongming wants it, he just needs to take out something of equivalent value and exchange it for it. Just consider it as doing him and Sanxiao a favor.

Otherwise, would he really offend the four strongest outer sect disciples of Jiejiao, Zhao Gongming and Sanxiao, just for the dispensable Dinghai Divine Pearl?

It’s not a question of whether or not you can do it, but it’s simply not worth it!

"Dragon Binding Rope?"

Zhao Gongming was a little surprised and didn't agree immediately. It wasn't because the conditions were too difficult, but because they were too simple. He was ready to bleed heavily, but he didn't expect that the conditions proposed by Ao Bing were so simple.

"Why, can't it?"

Seeing his expression, Ao Bing frowned and asked.

"It's not that I can't do it, but the conditions offered by Junior Brother are too low. This kind of exchange makes it seem like the elder brother is deliberately taking advantage of the younger brother."

Afraid that Ao Bing might misunderstand, Zhao Gongming hurriedly explained.

The Dragon Binding Rope, like the twelve Dinghai Divine Pearls, is a mid-grade innate spiritual treasure with the power to capture dragons and bind immortals. It only needs to be thrown out to automatically bind the enemy.

If Zhao Gongming didn't have the twenty-four Dinghai Divine Pearls, then exchanging them for the Dragon Binding Rope would be fair. But since he had them, this exchange would be unfair.

After all, Ao Bing only gained a mid-grade innate spiritual treasure when he got the Dragon Binding Rope, but Zhao Gongming gained an extra superb innate spiritual treasure, or even a top-grade innate spiritual treasure, when he got the twelve Dinghai Divine Pearls.

Compared like this, the gap is too big.
