Chapter 908 Trading Spiritual Items, Bargaining
"Yes, disciple obeys the instructions of my master."
Wei Jingze felt a strange thought. Could it be that Xuan Yang Mountain possessed some treasure that would make the Grand Master set out to visit it?
This Jade Seal Grand Master is extremely wealthy and has slain a great demon king; ordinary third-tier spiritual objects are hardly worth his attention.
Now they actually bring
He glanced at Liu Jing, whose face was solemn.
Both are at the sixth level of Core Formation, but this one, as a disciple of Grand Master Yuzhao, has a much more prestigious status.
'You bet on the right horse.'
"Jingze, is it true that you informed Fang Yi earlier that Gao Shanfu went to the Zoroastrian headquarters?"
The jade seal spoke in a deep voice, and then with a flick of its finger, auspicious clouds covered with bluebird patterns lifted the three of them and floated towards the Earth Phoenix Pavilion.
Wei Jingze froze, never expecting that the Imperial Seal even knew about this matter.
He respectfully replied, "Reporting to my martial uncle, this is true."
"Afterwards, when we arrive at the Diluan Pavilion, you will be the one to introduce us."
"Do your job well, and I will grant you permission to become my disciple." Auspicious clouds floated beneath the jade seal boots, about to land on the deck of the ship.
"hiss!"
Liu Jing gasped, astonished. His own Uncle Yu Xi was known for his high standards and even stricter requirements for accepting disciples than his master, Yu Zhao.
Now, in order to leave a good impression on Fang Yi, he has actually given up a disciple position.
Previously, Wei Jingze had spent a lot of effort and presented him with generous gifts, but he still couldn't get in touch with him.
'What exactly is this demonic artifact that makes Master and Uncle-Master Yu Xi value it so highly?'
Liu Jing's mind raced. There was no record of such a magical object in the ancient books of the Jinqiong Mountain Scripture Pavilion.
'We bet on the right thing!'
Wei Jingze was overjoyed, his soul felt dizzy, and his face flushed red.
'Haha, Li'er's path to enlightenment looks promising!'
I never imagined that simply doing someone a favor, as is customary, would yield such a reward!
"What, are you unwilling?" Looking at the ship so close at hand, Yu Xi frowned slightly and looked at Wei Jingze.
"No! No! No! I, your junior disciple, am willing!"
"My nephew is willing!"
Wei Jingze was immediately alerted and hurriedly spoke up, saying that not only was the Jade Seal Grand Master himself a top-tier cultivator, but he was also a disciple of the Tongbao True Lord.
Countless Nascent Soul cultivators wished to have their bloodline descendants become his disciples.
He would regret it terribly if he missed such an opportunity due to an inappropriate answer.
“嗯
"Maintain good relations with Sect Leader Fang Yi; I never mistreat anyone."
Yu Xi felt helpless. Fang Yi was too secretive. He hadn't given Fang Yi a good look when they exchanged for spiritual items.
After searching the entire ancient city of Huitong, only Wei Jingze and Fang Yi's lineage had a relatively good relationship.
"Who could have predicted that, apart from the ancient Jianyang Secret Realm, Dayun would have such an opportunity?"
"A demonic spirit creature, a unique demonic spirit creature found only in the Hundred Thousand Mountains, actually managed to open up such a crucial point."
He muttered to himself as he stepped onto the deck of the ship.
“They’ve arrived.” In the Flying Bird Pavilion, Fang Yi, wearing a jade crown and a blue cloud robe, gazed at the scene in the Yin Wood Illumination Mirror.
on the deck.
"Greetings, Jade Seal Immortal."
Li Heng straightened his clothes, bowed respectfully, and then coldly stared at Liu Jing, who was holding a tray, his heart burning with anger.
When will he go to the Jade Palace to beg for food?
If they truly needed the spiritual object to repair the Overturning Heaven and Sea Banner, they would naturally fight for it and try to seize it, rather than begging for mercy like a stray dog.
Li Heng then spoke up: "And Brother Liu Jing, it truly feels like three autumns have passed since we last met."
Li really missed it.
"Fellow Daoist Li Heng, I apologize. It was my poor judgment." Liu Jing sighed inwardly and apologized.
He naturally wouldn't take Li Heng seriously; he was just a cultivator at the second level of the Core Formation stage.
However, he had to be extremely careful and cautious about the attitudes of his uncle and master, keeping them constantly in mind.
With his white hair and beard, Wei Jingze stepped forward half a step and bowed slightly. "Fellow Daoist Li Heng, please forgive my misunderstanding."
"Fellow Daoist Wei, you're too kind."
Seeing Liu Jing lower his head, even though he knew it was because of his master's influence, Li Heng felt as if he had drunk sweet dew, and his magic power circulated faster.
"Fellow Daoist Liu Jing, you've finally met your match."
"Junior brother!"
Qin Yu stepped forward, and a pure white spiritual light descended, blocking Li Heng, who wanted to vent his frustrations.
The Grand Master Yu Xi of the Sihai Chamber of Commerce is still here. How dare a junior act so presumptuously?
Moreover, the Five Extremes Peak lineage holds a slight advantage, which is due to Master Fang Yi's abilities. As disciples, we are merely benefiting from his glory, so how can we be complacent?
The sea of consciousness of "Senior Brother" was swept by the cold and clean air. Li Heng's soul trembled, and he exhaled a breath of turbid air, realizing that his anger was rising.
He didn't have time to ponder why he was so easily angered today, and bowed to the man wearing a bluebird-patterned robe and a star-studded jade seal on his head to apologize.
"Li Heng misspoke; I hope you will forgive him."
"It's nothing."
Yesterday in the Jade Palace, my nephew Liu Jing did indeed perform poorly.
The jade seal has a smile on its lips, and a gentle aura flows from it, making people feel as if they are bathed in a spring breeze.
He never interfered in the affairs of the younger generation, so what if Li Heng harbored resentment? It seemed he was relying on Fang Yi's power.
"click"
The heavy sandalwood doors of the Flying Bird Pavilion slowly opened, and the withered Daoist aura dissipated, transforming into ripples of dim yellow light.
Fang Yi walked out slowly, his gaze sweeping over Li Heng, and he felt satisfied.
'Good temperament; even under the influence of the Soul-Soothing Incense, he was able to maintain his composure and not be overwhelmed by anger.'
His gaze shifted to Liu Jing, his eyes remaining closed. 'Having just entered the sixth level of Core Formation, he won't kill Heng'er because of the matter of the demonic spirit; he's a good whetstone.'
Having a role model to strive for prevents one from squandering their great opportunities and talents like Huo Zhao.
Fang Yi bowed slightly, his demeanor elegant. "Fellow Daoist Yu Xi, it's been over a month since we last met; your charm remains unchanged."
"Hahaha, I can't compare to Fellow Daoist Fang, who actually managed to open up the joints of the Ten Thousand Mountains."
A glint of light flashed in the jade seal's eyes as it probed, "I wonder which person you've managed to get in touch with, friend?"
Fang Yiyun said calmly, flicking his long sleeves. "This place is too crowded and noisy for conversation."
"Fellow Daoist Yu Xi, why don't we go to the Flying Bird Pavilion for a chat, so that I, Fang, can extend my hospitality?"
"Someone is getting impatient."
With a flick of his wrist, the jade seal was tossed, and two spirit pearls landed in Li Heng's hand, rippling with spiritual waves.
“Nephew Heng, these two Spirit Tide Pearls will serve as compensation.”
After saying this, without paying attention to Li Heng's change in expression, he took a step forward and followed Fang Yi into the Flying Bird Pavilion.
on the deck.
Qin Yu patted Li Heng's arm, hesitated to speak, and was filled with apprehension.
He carefully considered his words before speaking.
"Junior brother, you can entertain Fellow Daoist Wei. I'll go serve Master."
"Don't worry, senior brother. Serving our master is the most important thing." Li Heng looked at the white-haired old cultivator at the sixth level of Core Formation and felt a sense of urgency.
"I am a Kui Shui spirit. The Han Hai Jing records a secret technique called Yin Kui Body Tempering Technique, which can temper the body and increase the purity of magical power."
Although he suffered the pain of having his bones scraped off by a hidden blade, but...
We can't afford to slack off any longer!
Wei Jingze smiled as he watched the young man in the Vast Ocean robe not far away. His expression changed several times, but he showed no anger at being left behind.
Seeing that the sandalwood doors of the Flying Bird Pavilion were closed from both sides, he seemed to be deep in thought.
Using Liu Jing as a whetstone, this Master Qingyangzi has such ruthless methods.
Aren't you afraid of sharpening the knife to pieces? "A place of harsh mountains and rugged waters, where the people are fierce and untamed."
Flying Bird Pavilion.
On either side of the warm, smooth mutton-fat jade table, Fang Yi and Yu Xi each lifted their hems and sat down.
Qin Yu and Liu Jing stood with their hands at their sides, serving on either side.
"Sect Leader Fang, name your price. The spiritual herbs and precious materials flowing out of the Ten Thousand Mountains, my Four Seas Merchant Alliance wants them all." Yu Xi went straight to the point, without any politeness.
"Fellow Daoist Yu Xi, please don't be anxious."
"Yu'er, go and fetch my Pine and Crane Spirit Tea," Fang Yi said.
A short while later.
Blue flames licked the bottom of the pot, steam rose, and the fragrance of plants wafted through the air.
Qin Yu, dressed in a dark black robe, lowered his head and looked meek. He tilted the jade pot in his hand, and the crystal spring water was poured into the jade cup.
"Master, Jade Seal Immortal, please have some tea."
Fang Yi picked up the jade cup, took a sip, and the tea in his mouth spun with a bitter taste, followed by a sweet aftertaste, vaguely reminiscent of the longevity of pine and crane.
"Good tea."
The jade seal scanned the teacup with its divine sense, and after confirming that it was non-toxic and harmless, it held the teacup and drank it all in one gulp.
"Master Fang"
Fang Yi put down his teacup and said, "Fellow Daoist Yu Xi, let's speak frankly."
The demonic energy of the Ten Thousand Mountains permeates the spiritual veins, and the spiritual land nurtures spiritual herbs and precious materials, carrying a wildness that allows all things to compete freely under the frosty sky.
When such spiritual objects are used to refine elixirs, or to consecrate magical treasures and arrays, they can be imbued with an extra touch of spirituality.
Whether it's alchemy, talismans, arrays, artifacts, puppetry, cooking, or farming, nurturing future generations is highly beneficial.
Fang Yi's expression was solemn, like a hungry wild beast in the mountains, watching the antelope fall into its claws.
"If we do business with the Four Seas Business Alliance, we can naturally also trade with Medicine King Valley."
"My Xuan Yang Mountain also has juniors to cultivate. I wonder what price you can offer."
Yu Xi had anticipated this, and with a swift movement, the tray covered by silk in Liu Jing's hand fell to the ground.
As the silk was untied, a stream of pure blood and energy transformed into billowing smoke that shot into the sky, threatening to break through the top of the Flying Bird Pavilion in an instant.
"Buzz!"
With long, slender fingers extended, the jade seal's palm pressed down an inch, cutting off the billowing smoke, and a scarlet pearl spun around.
"A third-grade superior spiritual object, the Crimson Essence Pearl."
This treasure was refined from the essence and blood of a savage beast. It required the intervention of a quasi-grandmaster of alchemy, who cleansed and refined it seven times and nine times to completely remove the ferocity from the Crimson Essence Pearl.
Only the purest essence and blood energy, without any impurities, remain, which is best for nourishing the body.
Yu Xi's gaze was intense as he spoke in a deep voice, "What does Fellow Daoist Qingyangzi think?"
"The Crimson Essence Pearl?"
Fang Yi reached out and took off the scarlet pearl, feeling the surging blood energy constantly impacting his palm, which was burning hot.
"Extremely refined and pure, with virtually no impurities"
What a precious jewel!
The Four Seas Chamber of Commerce is indeed profound; to refine this Crimson Essence Pearl, even a quasi-Grandmaster of Alchemy is probably not enough.
At least one spiritual healer skilled in condensing natal medicinal energy and a superior alchemy furnace are needed.
"Fellow Daoist Fang has a good eye for quality." Looking at the Crimson Essence Pearl, Yu Xi felt a pang of heartache and extreme heartache.
In order to refine this Crimson Essence Pearl, a quasi-grandmaster of alchemy, a master of medicine who condenses medicinal qi, and a third-rank high-grade array master were all invited to harmonize the earth fire.
Only three were successfully crafted, two of which were refined by Hu Yuzhao to nourish and temper his physical body.
The last one was originally intended to be one of the grand prizes at the Huitong Grand Trade Fair five years later, to attract visitors from all directions.
Now, for the sake of the demonic spirits, we have no choice but to make a sacrifice.
"This is truly a fine treasure, exactly what I desire." Fang Yi stroked the Crimson Essence Pearl. As a great master who cultivated both medicine and poison, he used his magical power to probe for a moment and knew that refining this pearl was extremely difficult.
It is the finest spiritual item for body refinement and core formation.
If Huo Zhao had possessed this precious pearl before forming his core, it could have replenished his blood essence and even propelled him to the first-grade Golden Core stage.
If he had this pearl to help him lay the foundation, his [Four-Nine Mystic Technique] would surely advance rapidly after he formed his core, greatly making up for his lack of magical power.
Fang Yi put down the precious pearl in his hand, his demeanor gentle and refined. Then, he raised his eyebrows slightly and spoke in a deep voice.
"not enough!
In order to establish contact with the demons in the Hundred Thousand Mountains, I invested more than one third-grade high-quality spiritual item in the early stages.
Then the great demon king Lu Xiaozi intervened to ensure that the spirit item was obtained.
"A certain person, along with Senior Brother You from Tianji Peak, Uncle Hengyi from the Ancestral Hall, and the Nine-Bend True Man from Dadu Ancient City—three Grand True Men in total—lent their assistance."
"Deer Mandrill?"
The doubts in Yu Xi's heart dissipated, realizing that it was Xuan Yang Mountain that had put in its full effort, with four Grand Masters expending considerable energy.
It is not surprising that such spiritual herbs and precious materials, tainted by demonic influence, could be leaked out.
He asked, "What does Sect Leader Fang Yi want?"
"A near-fourth-tier puppet spirit item."
Fang Yi spoke softly, but his words resonated like a booming bell in the Jade Seal's ears, shaking its very soul.
"impossible!
"No matter how rare a demonic spirit is, a third-grade low-level spirit is still a third-grade low-level spirit." His face was dark and gloomy, almost dripping with water.
If it weren't for the presence of the Crimson Eyebrow True Lord at Xuanyang Mountain, providing a powerful backer, it wouldn't be easy to seize it by force.
With such an outrageous demand, Fang Yi has no chance of leaving Huitong Mall alive.
By capturing a cultivator at the fifth level of the Core Formation stage, and then subjecting them to severe torture, one can search their soul and probe their consciousness to obtain information.
"It's absolutely impossible for it to be a near-fourth-tier spiritual item!"
After considering it for a moment, Yu Xi took out a gold-embossed spirit tablet covered with ingot patterns from his sleeve and spoke.
"This is a grand trade fair to be held by the Business Alliance five years from now, and the entry threshold is the Grand Master."
If Sect Leader Fang has sufficient resources, he can give it a try. Every major force participating in the trade fair will prepare a near-fourth-tier spiritual item.
"A grand trade fair that brings together outstanding people from Dayu?"
Fang Yi put away the gold-embossed spirit scroll, and a delicate branch fell from his sleeve, emanating a faint vitality.
"I am not unreasonable. If Fellow Daoist Yu Xi is willing to take a step back, I will also take a step back."
This Crimson Bodhi Branch has been severely damaged, its grade dropping from high-grade. I need the Four Seas Merchant Guild to provide a Wood Elemental Treasure to repair the protective barrier.
Qin Yu glanced at it out of the corner of his eye, and felt a surge of emotion.
"Both are Azure Blood Bodhi Branches. Even if the protective barrier breaks and the branch falls from the rank of a high-grade magic treasure, the Azure Branch in Master's hand is still far superior to the one in mine."
"The Treasure of Wood Element?"
"Master Fang has quite the appetite!" Yu Xi's eyes gleamed. The Four Seas Chamber of Commerce had dozens of masters of the Hundred Arts who were stuck at a bottleneck.
If even one or two people can gain this inspiration and take it a step further, then this treasure of wood will be worthwhile.
The Imperial Seal solemnly agreed. "I agree to this matter."
Within a year, we will collect the Wood Element Treasure for you, fellow Daoist.
"Does Master Fang have any other requests?"
"In addition, I also need the Four Seas Merchant Guild to collect a mid-grade medicine furnace." This shows the attraction of the demonic spiritual plants to the Four Seas Merchant Guild.
Fang Yi understood that because of their different structures, chambers of commerce and sects had a looser sense of cohesion, while their power grew extremely rapidly.
He has connections with countless masters under his command who are involved in alchemy, talisman making, and array formations.
The demonic spirits and magical creatures were nothing special to Xuan Yang Mountain, but they were a completely different story to the Four Seas Chamber of Commerce.
"A mid-grade medicine cauldron?"
"Master Fang is asking for too much; he's too greedy!" Yu Xi frowned deeply.
"A high-quality, mid-grade medicinal cauldron is comparable to a high-grade magic weapon among alchemists, physicians, and even weapon refiners."
Fang Yi, don't push your luck!
