Immortal Taoist Lord: My Cultivation Have No Limits

Chapter 518: 157 Four-tier Dao Body Puppets, Black Jiao Daoist Submits (10K Monthly Tickets Needed)_5
This is an acquaintance!

His heart was filled with relief. It was good to see a familiar face, he was afraid that some old Nascent Soul freak wanted to cause trouble for their Black Year Dragon Commerce Association.

That was a close call.

Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh.

Daoist Black Flood Dragon led a group of his followers to the Dao Body Puppet, and they all bowed respectfully before it.

“Daoist Black Flood Dragon pays respects to senior.”

“We all pay respects to senior.”

“Hmm.”

The Dao Body Puppet responded lightly, looking past Daoist Black Flood Dragon towards a black immortal palace below. The black immortal palace was situated on an island in the midst of a lake. Apart from the cultivators of the Black Year Dragon Commerce Association, there were also quite a few people relying on the commerce association for survival.

A few docking spaces were set up on the island, with quite a number of vessels from the Black Year Dragon Commerce Association docked, which were used to transport the resources of the Black Year Dragon Commerce Association.

The trading between these large commerce associations was not all done by magic artifacts like Qiankun Bags or spatial rings.

After all, some resources, such as low-grade Spirit Rice, low-grade spirit stones, low-grade Spiritual Medicine, and the like, were available in large quantities and occupied significant space.

If they were to rely entirely on Qiankun Bags or spatial rings for the transaction, how many Qiankun Bags and spatial rings would be needed?

Therefore, large cargo-carrying magic artifact vessels were still a standard feature of the cultivator commerce associations.

Large quantities of low-grade resources were transported and handled by these vessels and ordinary cultivators.

Compared with the recently established Gong Yue Commerce Association, which had only been in existence for twenty or thirty years, the Black Year Dragon Commerce Association, accumulated for over two hundred years, was undoubtedly more formidable.

In addition, the Black Year Dragon Commerce Association was originally from the ‘water bandits’ of the Black Flood River.

The resources of the other ordinary cultivator forces and cultivator families in this area were almost monopolized by the Black Year Dragon Commerce Association.

Therefore, it seemed that the trade scene of this home base of the Black Year Dragon Commerce Association was even more prosperous than that of the Gong Yue Immortal City.

Daoist Black Flood Dragon noticed the gaze of the Dao Body Puppet, feeling a sense of tightening, and carefully asked in a low voice, “Does senior have any orders for visiting the Black Year Dragon Commerce Association?”

“If there is anything senior needs, and if the Black Year Dragon can help, feel free to speak out——”

The Dao Body Puppet shifted its gaze back to Daoist Black Flood Dragon.

The Dao Body Puppet asked, “How long have you been cultivating here, Black Flood Dragon?”

Daoist Black Flood Dragon was taken aback, then cautiously replied, “More than three hundred years.”

The Dao Body Puppet asked, “With more than three hundred years of accumulation, are you confident to attack the Nascent Soul Realm?”

Daoist Black Flood Dragon’s pupils contracted slightly, his heart feeling somewhat shaken. Attack the Nascent Soul Realm? Why ask this?

Daoist Black Flood Dragon showed bitterness on his face and replied, “Senior is joking, crossing the Nascent Soul Realm is not a minor matter. My cultivation base is only mediocre compared to those talents from major forces. Attacking the Nascent Soul Realm—I naturally have no confidence.”

“Perhaps, it is impossible for me to accomplish the Nascent Soul Realm in this lifetime.”

The Dao Body Puppet contemplated for a moment, then asked, “Do you want to attack the Nascent Soul Realm?”

Daoist Black Flood Dragon became more perplexed. After hesitating for a moment, he gritted his teeth and said, “Of course, I want to! Who wouldn’t want to ascend to immortality in the path of cultivation and defy Heaven’s will?”

“If the Core Formation Realm is fully cultivated, it could only prolong my life for up to five hundred years.”

“But if I could break through the Nascent Soul Realm, I could live up to a thousand years! That’s twice as long!”

“A thousand years, such a long time, is enough for me to enjoy life again.”

He paused.

Daoist Black Flood Dragon lowered his head in apprehension and said, “Please forgive me, senior. I, Black Flood Dragon, was born poor and have humble ambitions. All I want to do is merely to enjoy life on this small Black Flood Dragon Island. I have no other aspirations.”

“Besides, I only dare to think about this. If it really comes to attacking the Nascent Soul Realm, I do not have the courage.”

The Dao Body Puppet gently shook its head, looking at him and said, “If you rely solely on your own strength to attack the Nascent Soul Realm, you might not succeed. But what if you could have a Nascent Soul Opportunity?”

Nascent Soul Opportunity?

Daoist Black Flood Dragon’s eyes widened in disbelief as he looked at the Dao Body Puppet.

A moment later, Daoist Black Flood Dragon trembled as he asked, “Senior, are you planning to give me a Nascent Soul Opportunity?”

The Dao Body Puppet: “…”

He thought too much.

Where would he get such a Nascent Soul Opportunity?

Even if it did exist, there was only one, ahem.

The Dao Body Puppet chuckled and replied, “I don’t have a Nascent Soul Opportunity, but if your Black Year Dragon Commerce Association is willing to work for me, I could strive to get you a Nascent Soul Opportunity in the future.”

“If you only rely on your own power, it might be very difficult to get a Nascent Soul Opportunity. But if you pledge allegiance to me, there might be a chance to compete for a Nascent Soul Opportunity in the Sangmu Mansion and even in the sea area.”

Upon hearing these words, Daoist Black Flood Dragon’s face turned quite pale, and he stared dumbly at the Dao Body Puppet.

Damn it——

So, this was his original intention?

The Dao Body Puppet gazed at him, saying, “Think it over and then answer me. If I didn’t value your talents and our previous encounter, I might not be discussing this matter politely with you today.”

Daoist Black Flood Dragon shuddered on the spot, feeling a chill run down his spine.

Gurgle!

Daoist Black Flood Dragon secretly swallowed a few times, his heart a blend of frustration, anger, and fear. He was used to being free and unbound since he established his Black Year Dragon Commerce Association on this territory and had been rampant for many years.

How could he easily accept a new boss?

At this moment, Daoist Black Flood Dragon’s face went through a myriad of changes, his hands even unconsciously clenched into fists.

But with the next second, Daoist Black Flood Dragon’s eyes contracted sharply, and he instantly loosened his clenched fists while cold sweat rolled down his forehead. He gazed in fear at the Dao Body Puppet in front of him.
