Chapter 1469: Chapter 1469: i Jiushan’s Choice
Feng Jun’s question left i Jiushan quite desperate. So, no matter what you’re simulating, you need to use existing resources as a reference?
He took out a small box and placed it on the table, answering sluggishly, “Inside is a wisp of Earth Fire Gang Wind… Mountain Master Feng, if you want the Demon Core of the Bat Winged Tiger again, I truly have none left.”
“That’s enough,” Feng Jun nodded, continuing to scroll on his mobile phone. He indeed had information on the Demon Core of the Bat Winged Tiger.
Watching him scroll while pondering, i Jiushan felt a burst of unease in his heart: I have laid out so much information, what do I do if this guy can’t simulate a result?
Or rather… if the treatnt plan the other party simulates is too expensive, beyond what he can afford, he’d be caught off guard!
He inadvertently glanced at Jiang Shangen. If your recomndation is too unreliable, don’t bla for ssing up your Tiantong Comrcial Alliance’s affairs.
Sword Forging Peak has always cooperated with the Tiantong Comrcial Alliance. Initially, Sword Forging Peak wanted to establish its own brand and didn’t want to develop distributors, but facts proved this wasn’t feasible, as the Cultivation World is indeed too vast.
Just think about it, Feng Jun transmitted from Mingsha Fang Market to Qiuchen, spending over three thousand Spirit Stones. For an average cultivator, who would be willing to spend Spirit Stones like this?
So, no matter how famous Sword Forging Peak is, except for those who are especially wealthy or those who are not pressed for ti, there really aren’t many who would co specifically to buy weapons and magical treasures—the geographical reach is just a hundred thousand miles or so.
Sword Forging Peak has also considered opening branches to sell weapons in various places but after operating for a century, they found it not cost-effective.
For one, Sword Forging Peak doesn’t have the corresponding talents; they have people for forging and artifact refining, but really none for comrce.
Secondly, Sword Forging Peak isn’t without competition—from the Refining Hall of the Four Sects in Wutai to the specialized forging clans in every area—Sword Forging Peak opening stores locally would be cutting into others’ livelihoods!
The professional level of Sword Forging Peak is indeed high, but is it so high that it’s unparalleled? That’s a joke!
The Four Great Sects aren’t inferior to them, except that the Four Great Sects’ magical treasures and weapons do not flow out, and those small forging clans, even if they are inferior, aren’t far behind.
Especially, all the major families at Sword Forging Peak know that their ans of living rests on forging and artifact refining, so the best talents won’t focus on comrce, and they are justified in their confidence—no matter how bad we are at business, people will co to buy.
Therefore, cooperation with Tiantong is inevitable, and Tiantong can manage to completely handle Sword Forging Peak’s products—from the low-end standard weapons to high-end custom treasures, Tiantong can take it all.
However, Sword Forging Peak also has a sense of crisis, knowing not to rely solely on Tiantong’s channels. They don’t have modern business concepts but absolutely don’t want to beco a subsidiary of Tiantong, so they won’t unconditionally satisfy Tiantong’s demands—supplying you depends on my mood.
For example, the top-level customization is impossible through Tiantong’s channel—co to Sword Forging Peak instead; after all, you’re not short of money.
Therefore, if i Jiushan wants to make trouble, causing so losses to Tiantong is not a problem.
The Tiantong clan is vast and may not care about these losses, but he wants to indicate that it was retaliation because a certain Guest Elder at Mingsha Fang Market wasn’t doing things correctly—can Jiang Shangen handle it?
i Jiushan didn’t know how long he was lost in thought when he suddenly felt a change in the atmosphere; it was Feng Jun raising his head.
Feng Jun had a strange look on his face, but in the end, he said, “Since Elder i has explained so much, I’ve deduced two plans: one that costs more Spirit Stones, and one that takes more ti… each plan costs ten thousand Spirit Stones.”
Jiang Shangen’s mouth twitched as if he wanted to say sothing but eventually turned his head to look at i Jiushan—he really didn’t even have the right to offer an opinion, as the other party casually ntioned ten thousand.
But i Jiushan, deserving of being from a wealthy family, after being stunned for a mont, said, “Then let’s hear both.”
Spending an additional ten thousand Spirit Stones to buy a choice, that’s just how impressive it is.
However, in fact, he had already planned that if today’s matter doesn’t satisfy him, he must create so trouble for Tiantong to earn back that ten thousand Spirit Stones—even if I can’t achieve anything, can’t I at least cause so trouble?
Feng Jun placed down two pieces of Obsidian, “Take a look yourself.”
i Jiushan picked up an Obsidian piece and casually glanced at it, feeling a cold chill in his heart. Not to ntion the densely packed list, just the first line made him feel a bit overwheld—hell, ten hearts of the Shen She Wang… are you sure this isn’t a joke?
The attack power of the Shen She Wang isn’t high, rely a wild beast, but its illusion skills are truly formidable.
The key is… that’s a Shen She Wang, among thousands of Shen Snakes, only one king might erge.
During Spirit Beast sieges, if you’re lucky, the heart of a Shen She Wang might only be worth three to four hundred Spirit Stones—if you can even acquire it!
As for ten hearts of the Shen She Wang, nobody can acquire that many; there simply aren’t that many Shen She Wangs!
Gathering slowly over ti could yield such a number, but it would depend on ti accumulation, and it’s estimated that the price for one heart would be seven to eight hundred Spirit Stones—don’t think it’s expensive, this is material from a wild beast, and the sac of phlegm from a Shen She Wang starts at three thousand Spirit Stones each.
So i Jiushan, after just one glance and seeing the next line was “tail of the Gold-Eating Rat,” directly gave up.
The second obsidian tablet had a simple ssage, just one line, “Perform the Grand Circulation continuously three thousand six hundred tis.”
i Jiushan was also a person of strong will, but even he felt unsettled upon seeing this suggestion.
He raised his hand to pick up the obsidian tablet, looking skeptically at Feng Jun, “Grand Circulation?”
He had to be skeptical. The Grand Circulation is sothing you can simply practice at ho during cultivation. As for performing it three thousand six hundred tis, is that really sothing?
Strictly speaking, it is sothing. In the interdiate level of Qi refining, performing one Grand Circulation takes at least an hour or two—if it’s the initial stage, it takes even longer, perhaps four or five hours.
It’s the sa in the Qi Refinent Realm; in the early stage, performing a Grand Circulation takes four to five hours each ti. Doing it three tis a day would already be quite diligent—you’d still need ti for other activities.
However, at the mid-stage of Qi Refining, performing six or seven Grand Circulations a day poses no problem; the level is different.
At the high tier of Qi Refinent, one can perform twelve Grand Circulations a day.
This is during the Qi Refinent Realm. Once you reach the next realm, although the cultivation technique changes, the speed of the Grand Circulation can refer to the Qi Refinent Realm—won’t be too different.
For soone like i Jiushan, who is at the interdiate level—or let’s say halfway to the high level of the next realm, diligently doing the Grand Circulation in a day… can also reach twelve tis.
So he thought, if using the Seven Yang Snow lting Technique to advance, doing three hundred sixty Grand Circulations in succession would take a month.
In fact, he tried exactly that. He secluded himself for a month but didn’t reach the seventh level of the next realm, which made him a bit embarrassed… strictly speaking, it was quite passive, and he had so doubts himself.
Now Feng Jun suggests that performing three thousand six hundred Grand Circulations can advance to the high tier of the next realm, which made him quite confused.
Performing three thousand six hundred Grand Circulations continuously isn’t a problem for him; it’s simply a matter of not eating or drinking and cultivating continuously for ten months—the Fasting Pill, Purification Technique, who do you think those are for?
However, this suggestion sounds absurd—three hundred and sixty Grand Circulations don’t work, but three thousand six hundred will?
In comparison, i Jiushan is more inclined to believe the content on the first obsidian tablet—although it definitely costs a lot, it seems relatively more reliable.
However, the biggest problem is… no money.
The i Family isn’t poor. Compared to those loose cultivators, the seven major families of Sword Forging Peak are very wealthy, but i Jiushan is not the i Family; he’s just a mber of the clan, and can only access so resources, but just so.
Aside from lacking Spirit Stones, ti remains an issue. He thinks that gathering the resources listed by Feng Jun would take at least ten years—even if the whole i Family helps, it might take two or three years; alone, he can’t do it.
Moreover, if it all ends up failing to advance after a grand fuss… it would be too embarrassing for him.
He knows that with Feng Jun’s reputation, the list shouldn’t be wrong, but if he fails to advance, he’d be the laughingstock of the entire clan.
So, continuously performing three thousand six hundred Grand Circulations seems to be the best choice, but… is it really possible?
While he was tangled in thoughts, Feng Jun spoke up, “The deduction is over, I’m heading back.”
Don’t just stand there—pay up quickly.
i Jiushan hesitated; he brought plenty of Spirit Stones, more than enough—over fifty thousand—but is it wise to give away thirty thousand just like that?
After hesitating for a mont, he spoke sternly, “Mountain Master Feng, I ca out in a hurry and only brought over twenty thousand Spirit Stones. I could sell so things to make it up to thirty thousand…”
“Then go make it up,” Feng Jun interrupted him directly, “I’ve finished the deduction, and now you tell you don’t have money? This behavior can’t be tolerated, “I can wait… for how long would it take?”
i Jiushan felt a bit humiliated being interrupted, but considering the other party’s strength and influence, and his powerful deduction ability, he ultimately suppressed his anger and spoke apologetically.
“Alright, mainly you did ntion there were issues with my clan’s cultivation technique, and I wish to verify that. Let give you twenty thousand now, and once I confirm the situation, I’ll make up the remaining ten thousand. Please give a chance to verify.”
Feng Jun was rather irritated to hear this, “It’s your clan’s cultivation technique that has a problem, not mine, so why deduct my money?”
But the next mont, he realized the whole situation today was quite inexplicable, with all sorts of vague information.
In the end, he sighed, “Fine, I understand you’re in a bad mood, and we’ve discussed a lot of sensitive issues. I don’t want to argue. Okay, you may owe ten thousand Spirit Stones… ensure they’re delivered within two months, alright? Longer and I’ll be charging late fees.”
Even in the mobile phone realm, where can you go to reason if soone owes you money?
