“The Dragon Palace really offered the Deepsea Nether Iron as a reward?”

“Yes! To be honest, I was quite shocked at first!”

“But it’s true! The Dragon Palace can’t spare any manpower because of the Vortex Mystic Realm!”

“…”

The Seven Star Pavilion was in disbelief after receiving the bounty mission from the Dragon Palace.

That was because the reward was Deepsea Nether Iron, a top-tier material used to forge treasures.

This material had to be formed in the deep sea, and it had to be in a place where there was a lot of resentment.

Under normal circumstances, if one wanted to accumulate resentment in a place, they would need a large number of corpses to pile up.

However, it was not easy to pile up corpses in the sea, not to mention that there were all kinds of aquatic creatures in the deep sea.

The most terrifying thing was that some of the deepsea areas had real monsters guarding them.

A top-tier material like the Deepsea Nether Iron was equivalent to a legend on land.

Only a few aquatic creatures had obtained it.

Therefore, when the Dragon Palace took out such a good item as a reward, the entire Seven Star Pavilion was shocked.

The Seven Star Pavilion’s divination technique had a huge demand for the Deepsea Nether Iron.

Apart from a large amount of it, the Deepsea Nether Iron also had a very powerful function, which was to be able to resist backlash.

In a sense, the practice of divination was to come into contact with the great Dao of Karma.

The great Dao of Karma was known as the most unpredictable great Dao.

Every time you thought that you had mastered the great Dao of Karma, the inexplicable karma would finally make you suffer a great loss.

However, the ability to control karma and predict the future attracted countless cultivators.

Therefore, all kinds of cultivators who practiced the great Dao of Karma began to look for various ways.

At first, these people chose to study all kinds of divine abilities to avoid disaster or to divert karma.

Later, they found that when faced with great karma, this method of avoiding disaster simply didn’t work.

This was because to those great cultivators, they themselves were a huge source of karma. Just changing a little bit would immediately cause them great misfortune.

Therefore, these people began to experiment to see if they could use some kind of item or treasure to replace suffering karmic retribution.

Then, all kinds of karmic treasures appeared. The most famous one should be the substitution treasures that appeared once in a blue moon in ancient times.

It could be said that many substitution treasures today were imitations.

The substitution treasures from ancient times were woven with Sacrificial Grass that interweaved life and death.

The laws of the great Dao of Karma contained within could really resurrect a person, ignoring all restrictions and without any conditions.

“If I get my hands on the Deep Sea Nether iron, then I’ll have gathered the last ingredient of the Seven Star Compass!”

“That’s right!”

“In other words, there is hope for our Seven Star Pavilion to revive?”

“That’s right!”

“…”

The old man and the young man from the Seven Star Pavilion stared with their eyes wide open while the other sighed.

Old Man Seven Stars naturally understood that the Deepsea Nether Iron was the last ingredient of the Seven Star Compass.

However, according to the laws of the great Dao of Karma, obtaining such a top-tier ingredient would require a huge disaster.

The Seven Star Pavilion couldn’t afford to suffer anymore.

There were only two people left in the once-mighty sect.

The entire sect had exchanged for a pile of top-tier refining materials.

“Right! Master! What are the people of the Dragon Palace doing? Why are they willing to take out the Deepsea Nether Iron?”

Looking at the Old Man Seven Stars with a worried expression, Dao Yan quickly changed the topic.

His childish voice seemed to reveal a trace of innocence.

But in fact, Dao Yan was the most talented person among the Seven Star Pavilion’s disciples.

He was born with the Hazard Physique and was most suitable to cultivate divination techniques and pursue the great Dao of Karma.

“What else can happen? It’s those heaven’s favorites left behind from ancient times!”

Old Man Seven Stars looked disdainful.

It turned out that the Dragon Palace originally wanted to use some of their strength to deal with Zhou Feng.

They also wanted to show off in front of the old Dragon King.

However, something unexpected happened in the Vortex Mystic Realm. An unfamiliar space was discovered.

What followed was the surging Azure Qi. A heaven’s favorite from ancient times was discovered.

Moreover, this heaven’s favorite was actually a dragon, a young Azure Dragon!

It was precisely because of this that even the old Dragon King, who had not appeared for a long time, was alarmed.

He only needed to take two breaths of the pure Azure Qi, and his whole body would feel relaxed. It also had the effect of prolonging his life.

But at this time, the news of Zhou Feng causing trouble everywhere reached the Dragon Palace.

After learning that not only did Zhou Feng not hide, but he was also openly robbing the major aquatic tribes’ treasuries, the Dragon Palace immediately exploded with anger. No cultivator had ever dared to behave atrociously in the Eastern Sea.

They knew that they had offended the Dragon Palace, but they still acted so arrogantly. If the Dragon Palace continued to be so indifferent.

In the eyes of the major aquatic tribes, the Dragon Palace’s supreme prestige would probably be lost.

It was because of this background that the Dragon Palace found the Seven Star Pavilion.

They even took out a top-tier material, the Deepsea Nether Iron because Zhou Feng was not easy to deal with. The death of the Black Prince had already shown that those below the Ascendance realm should not provoke Zhou Feng in the end.

Meanwhile, the Ascendants of the Dragon Palace were all gathered in the Vortex Mystic Realm. If they did not find outside help, they would have to wait for a while. After all, the Deepsea Nether Iron was only given after the mission was completed.

If the Seven Star Pavilion did not complete the mission, the Dragon Palace would not need to pay anything.

They only needed to find someone else to accomplish it.

“Azure Dragon?”

Dao Yan seemed to be very surprised, and a chessboard appeared in his eyes.

He started to calculate subconsciously.

But halfway through the calculation, a stone under his feet suddenly exploded.

“Stop! That Azure Dragon is not simple!”

Old Man Seven Stars saw this and immediately stopped Dao Yan.

No matter how much Old Man Seven Stars looked down on the heaven’s favorites left from ancient times, the Azure Dragon was not an ordinary fellow.

If one made a hasty calculation, it might very well cause trouble even though they were on Seven Star Island and had a large number of Karma Stones around them that could transfer karma.

“It’s indeed not simple! He actually plans on faking his death!”

Dao Yan’s bright eyes instantly dimmed as if they were covered with a layer of dust.

Just now, he had used his divination technique to forcefully deduce the information of the Azure Dragon and even triggered the great Dao of Karma, thus prying into some secret information.

Of course, the price he had to pay was this pair of eyes.

In reality, if it weren’t for the fact that the Seven Star Island was made up of Karma Stones, just taking it was enough to take half of Dao Yan’s life.

“Your Calamity-Eluding Technique…”

When Old Man Seven Stars saw Dao Yan’s eyes brighten up again, he couldn’t help but be a little surprised.

He recovered so quickly?

Old Man Seven Stars didn’t expect that this disciple in front of him was actually so outstanding. His Calamity-Eluding Technique had already been cultivated to perfection.

He had even separated it from karma in an extremely short period.

One had to know that the information that Dao Yan had just obtained could very easily affect the Azure Dragon’s destiny. This was huge karma.

Dao Yan used less than ten seconds to completely cut through such huge karma.

‘Such talent…’

“No! I’m still a little short! This is only because I said here on Seven Star Island that if this news were to spread, the karma that I would bear would be even greater!”

Dao Yan did not become complacent but lightly explained.

Even so, Old Man Seven Stars still sighed in his heart.

This was the first time he felt that this disciple of his could already take charge of his destiny.
