As the Venerable Immortal saw the words on the light screen, a cold smile slowly crept onto his lips.
This is an open strategy; he didn’t need to look for it himself.
He only needed to spread enough bait, and many people would naturally be willing to risk their lives for him.
He raised his hand and waved it, and the golden light screen turned into countless light dots, flying like fireflies and spreading out in all directions.
Dots of light penetrated the dome of the main hall, passed through the restrictions of the Heavenly Palace, penetrated the sky of the Northern Territory, and flew to every corner.
Prizes have been announced.
Next, all we need to do is wait.
Just wait for those greedy evil cultivators, those small forces who want to curry favor with the Heavenly Palace, and those desperate criminals who want to get rich overnight to bring David’s soul before him.
The Heavenly Venerate sat back, leaned back on the throne, and closed his eyes.
His fingers began tapping lightly on the armrest again, once, then again.
In the main hall, only monotonous beats echoed, like the sound of an ancient timer calculating something.
Outside the window, three blazing suns hung high in the sky, their golden, silver, and red rays interweaving and spreading, dyeing the entire earth a dark golden color.
The reward was announced in less than half a day, and the entire Northern Region was in an uproar.
In the Tianque City tavern, the wild cultivators sat together, whispering among themselves.
The walls of the tavern were made of rough gray stone, with several lamps hanging from them, emitting a faint light.
The air was filled with the aroma of cheap liquor and grilled meat. The sound of clinking glasses, shouting, and laughter mixed together, creating a noisy and chaotic atmosphere.
But right now, everyone’s conversation revolved around the same thing—the reward order from the Heavenly Palace.
Some people were amazed by the splendor of the Heavenly Palace, some were jealous of the abundant gifts, and some were eager to go and find that purple divine soul.
The owner of the tavern was an old man at the ninth level of the True Immortal Realm. He leaned against the counter, listening to the crowd’s discussion, with a mocking smile on his lips.
He didn’t speak, but just played with the beads on the abacus, producing a jingling sound.
“Three Golden Immortal Pills! One Golden Immortal Cultivation Technique! Ten million spiritual stones! Guest Elder position! Has the Heavenly Palace gone crazy?”
A heretical cultivator with scars on his face slammed his fists onto the table, his eyes wide open, his voice filled with shock and greed. “All these treasures combined alone are enough to make an ordinary cultivator leapfrog to become a powerful figure in the Northern Region! If it were me, I would definitely laugh in my sleep!”
“Tsk, you’re just dreaming! Do you think you’ll live to be able to accept it?”
An old man sitting in the corner sneered. He wore a tattered Daoist robe and held a rusty long sword in his hand.
His voice was hoarse, containing a hint of mockery and a hint of helplessness.
“That purple divine soul was able to escape from the hands of four Golden Immortal Elders, so it must be something ordinary.”
The Heavenly Palace offered such high rewards, which meant that the value of the divine soul far exceeded these rewards. Do you think the Heavenly Palace is stupid?
They used these heretical cultivators as tools to search for divine souls. If they found it, credit would go to the Heavenly Palace; otherwise, it wouldn’t be their people who died.
“So what?” the scarred wild cultivator replied. “Luck favors the brave! If we find that soul and hand it over to the Heavenly Palace, we will be guaranteed a lifetime.”
“You don’t even know what a soul looks like, where are you going to look for it?” The old man sneered, shook his head, and said no more.
In front of the teleportation array in Tianque City, a cultivator in black hurriedly handed over a spiritual stone and stepped into the teleportation array.
He was a spy for a small faction in the Northern Territory, specializing in gathering intelligence and then selling it to those who needed it.
Less than an hour after the reward was announced, he had already copied the message hundreds of times and sent it to various regions via secret channels.
He was gambling, gambling in the hope that this information would bring him great rewards.
In Blackwind City’s underground black market, several sinister-looking cultivators were gathered together, whispering among themselves.
They are an organization that specializes in killing and capturing; they will do anything for the right reward.
The rewards listed on the reward poster tempted them, but what they cared more about was the “position as guest elder”.
Becoming a guest elder of the Heavenly Pole Palace meant being able to utilize the resources of the Heavenly Pole Palace and act with impunity in the Northern Territory.
This power was more tempting than any spiritual stone or cultivation technique.
But they are also careful.
They didn’t know where the purple divine soul was, what it looked like, or what abilities it had.
Everything that was able to escape the clutches of the four Golden Immortal Elders of the Heavenly Palace was not something simple.
They need more information and intelligence before they can decide whether to take action or not.
There was a lot of discussion, but very few people actually dared to go and investigate.
That doesn’t mean I’m not jealous, it’s just that I don’t dare to be jealous.
The four Golden Immortal elders of the Heavenly Pole Palace had lost their tracks. If these heretical cultivators chased them, wouldn’t that be the same as courting death?
However, news of the reward spread throughout the Northern Region very quickly.
The news spread to major cities, major sects, and even to the Guiyuan Sect.
The day after the reward was announced, the Heavenly Palace received a secret report.
