Exotic Battlefield: I Can Activate Dual Talents Chapter 966 - 601: I Want Lu Lin, Not Some Strange Spark

The scene is as follows.

Cui Baohe calmly holds the treasure box in his hand, listening to Elder Long's praises.

Though the complints are cliché, the important thing is not the content but the person giving them.

A thousand years ago, when Elder Long heard Cui Baohe arrogantly claim his refining skills were the best in the world, he devised a plan to curb Cui Baohe's arrogance. As a result, he gave Cui Baohe a custom order that was impossible to complete, which led to Cui Baohe's change in character over these five thousand years, spending every day on his mountain peak pondering crafting techniques.

Now, although this box of 10,081 tallic sand grains wasn't crafted by him, Mi Yue is his disciple.

A strong disciple implies a strong master.

At monts of joy, Cui Baohe even clapped in response. After a while, seeing Elder Long run out of things to say, Cui Baohe had Mi Yue serve him a pot of tea.

This old fellow has been talking for so long, he's probably parched.

"Alright, Elder Long, since my disciple crafted this box of tallic sand, it's definitely for you, but..."

Cui Baohe squinted slightly, a smile playing at the corner of his mouth. "But, the price certainly isn't the sa as the initial order; you must know, this set of 10,081 tallic sand grains, each one is a top-grade Grade 6 Star Tool. Moreover, they can freely combine, and once combined, the power of this Star Tool is far beyond the ordinary Ninth Grade Star Tool, almost reaching the level of a King-level Star Artifact."

"Haha, Master Cui Baohe, Master Mi Yue, rest assured, money is not an issue. The five million Starstones paid for the order five thousand years ago were only a deposit; they can't match a treasure worthy of a King-level Star Artifact."

"Here's an idea: I happen to have a private country with a net annual inco of about ten million Starstones. If Master Cui Baohe doesn't mind, I will transfer this country to Master Cui."

"No, no, no."

Cui Baohe waved his hand repeatedly, "I'm just a Refiner, I hardly set foot outside my door in ten or eight years, what use do I have for a kingdom, it would only add to my worries. I can offer you a friendly price of five hundred million Starstones."

"Five hundred million? Starstones!"

Dragon elder couldn't help but exclaim.

Now, his assets amount to just a few tens of millions, though he is already a top Star Emperor master at General Mountain, earning quite a lot, but spending even more. Under his command, there is a special team and subordinates. Besides, he has an extensive family, not to ntion his own cultivation, which incurs considerable costs.

Not everyone can be like Lu Lin, just absorbing Star Power to enhance their cultivation.

Star Pills, Star Devices, Secret thod, Soul Power, weapons, Flying Boat... each is a gold-devouring household, only Dragon Elder still has so fortune, that kingdom can annually give him a contribution of around ten million Starstones; otherwise, Dragon Elder would likely rely on loans for cultivation.

"What, Dragon Elder, don't you think this set of tallic sand isn't worth it?"

"Worth it! Of course, it is!"

Dragon Elder promptly replied upon hearing Cui Baohe's question.

The custom of Star Tool must fit one's own usage preferences.

The Dragon Elder himself is adept at using various types of weapons, and having such a set of versatile tallic sand comparable to King-level Star Artifact would be incredibly beneficial.

Don't say five hundred million, even five billion, as long as Dragon Elder has the money, he would surely buy it.

But the problem is, he doesn't have money now.

"However, Master Cui, you know I usually operate alone, with few friends, and my inco is just this small kingdom. The five hundred million price is indeed worth it, but... I can't afford it."

Actually, Dragon Elder has many treasures on him, if he sells a part, he can definitely gather the five hundred million cost.

But the treasures, like this versatile tallic sand, are custom items. Finding a suitable buyer could take forever.

"Understood."

Cui Baohe readily agreed and then sat up straight, "If you don't have that many Starstones, it's okay. I have another proposal for you, just listen."

"Alright." Dragon Elder's face showed a hint of joy, he had a premonition that this second proposal should be advantageous for him, otherwise Cui Baohe wouldn't bring it up now.

"That disciple of yours nad Lu Lin, I think is pretty decent, you can let him follow here, to learn for a First Stage..."

Dragon Elder felt a sudden jolt in his heart.

He knew, the second proposal isn't that simple. Indeed, Cui Baohe continued saying.

"If Dragon Elder is willing to let go and allow Lu Lin to join my door, then this box of tallic sand will be my gift to you."

Just as expected.

Just as expected.

Dragon Elder knew Cui Baohe wasn't acting out of pure generosity.

Ordinary cultivators carry quite a few Starstones for expenses, but there's a limit. A Star Emperor Level master, it's normal to carry several million or even tens of millions with them.

Dragon Elder, as one of the Seven Great Elders of General Mountain, his assets aren't the richest but not the poorest; the treasures all over him amount to approximately 2 billion Starstones, but the cash, he never had more than one billion Starstones.

Cui Baohe set such a high price, which ordinary people can't afford; only so powerful forces, with their large scale, independent finances and inco channels, can swiftly co up with not only 5.5, but even 10, 20 billion in cash.
