Chapter 792 - 792 Resolve An Old Grudge (2)

''What did you say?''

Murong Tian no longer restrained his killing intent, as his aura at the peak of the Dao Emperor realm exploded out of his body, immediately submerging the entire 'Burning noble restaurant'.

It wasn't just the manager who was standing outside of the private room who was stunned when he sensed Murong Tian's aura, but every single person who was dining inside the restaurant, as they all started trembling uncontrollably.

The aura of a peak Dao Emperor was enough to stun every single expert inside the restaurant.

In fact, even a couple of early-stage Dao Emperors who were present were completely terrified, as they all turned their attention towards Murong Tian's location.

And yet, the target of this outburst, Shun Long who was just standing a few meters away from Murong Tian seemed completely unaffected, almost as if the aura of a peak rank 9 Dao Emperor had no effect on him.

Pointing at the plain-looking scroll on the table, Shun Long then continued

''Since I received Huo Wuyi's legacy, I know everything about you and him, as well as Yi Qianyu. Everything started with her, so I am willing to trade an immortal-grade cultivation technique for her.'' Murong Tian was momentarily stunned, to the point where even his killing intent subsided for a brief moment, as he turned his attention towards the plain-looking scroll on the table.

The moment that his eyes landed on the scroll in front of him, Murong Tian was taken aback, as he hurriedly stretched out his hand and grabbed it, while his eyes focused on the words at the very top of the scroll. 

'Immortal-grade cultivation technique, Ice Kingdom'

Naturally, this was the same immortal-grade cultivation technique that Shun Long had given to the Grand Elder, the 'Ice Kingdom'.

However, the difference between this scroll in Murong Tian's hands and the scroll that Shun Long had given to the Grand Elder was the amount of information recorded in each of them.

After reading through the scroll, Murong Tian soon realized that more than half of the information needed was missing.

Of course, he understood that Shun Long would only give him the rest of it if he agreed to his terms.

Silence filled the private room soon after, as Murong Tian stared at the scroll in front of him with a deep look in his eyes before he turned his attention towards Shun Long.

As the patriarch of the Murong family, Murong Tian knew very clearly how rare an immortal-grade cultivation technique really was.

Even the entire Murong family didn't have an immortal-grade cultivation technique for themselves.

The only one who owned an immortal-grade cultivation technique was the old ancestor of the Murong family, but even his own cultivation technique was one that the old ancestor had obtained through an expert's legacy and he couldn't transmit it to others.

At the same time, although it was possible to find some immortal low-grade cultivation techniques in the high-level auctions in the central part of the central region, Murong Tian knew that even the cheapest of those cultivation techniques would go for, at least 1 million high-grade spirit stones, and most of the time, their actual price would easily exceed what he had just paid for the earth flame by a substantial amount.

The Murong family had tried to obtain a cultivation technique through one of those auctions in the past, but each time, the price ended up going past 10 million high-grade spirit stones and they had to give up.

Although some of the peak powers in the northern part of the central region like the 'White ice city' and the 'Northern Sovereign's city' could afford that price, the Murong family wasn't capable of taking out 10 million high-grade spirit stones at once.

Even now that Murong Tian had managed to win the bid for the earth flame, he had ended up spending almost half of the total amount of spirit stones accumulated by the Murong family inside their treasury.

After a moment of silence, Murong Tian stared at Shun Long with a profound look in his eyes before he asked

''You want to trade an immortal-grade cultivation technique for Qianyu? Interesting. Even if you obtained Huo Wuyi's legacy, I am sure that the treasures that Huo Wuyi left behind aren't close to the value of a complete immortal-grade cultivation technique.

Fine then. Since you want Qianyu, you can have her-''

The moment that he finished speaking, Murong Tian suddenly lunged forward with his right arm stretched out in the shape of a claw, heading straight for Shun Long's neck.

It was obvious that Murong Tian was aiming to take Shun Long by surprise and kill him before he could activate any of his treasures.

In the first place, the private room wasn't big while Shun Long and Murong Tian were sitting opposite each other, making the distance between the 2 of them practically non-existent.

Forget about an early-stage Dao King like Shun Long, even a late-stage Dao Emperor wouldn't be able to react to a sneak attack from Murong Tian from such a close distance!

And yet, what Murong Tian didn't know, was that right before he made his move, Shun Long's golden eyes flashed with a bright blue light, before a scene of Murong Tian lunging forward had already appeared in his mind.

Shun Long could feel a large amount of his qi being sapped at that moment, but he didn't pay any attention to it, as he merely stared at the incoming hand that was filled with killing intent and was heading for his head,

At that moment, an enormous black claw covered in black scales seemed to have torn space apart, appearing in front of Shun Long seemingly out of thin air, as it blocked Murong Tian's hand.

BOOOOOOOOM!
