Chapter 596: Chapter 387 Soul Nourishing Wood_1
Chen Mobai followed Wang Gongdao to a seemingly inconspicuous shop in the Tiankui Market.
Inside, there were already a good number of Foundation Establishment cultivators either sitting or standing, among them Chen Mobai recognized a man with a refined appearance, Fu Xiuzuo.
Soon after, the white-haired and elderly Liang Jinggui entered the shop, and the three men naturally formed a small group.
“That’s Yuan Hongyuan.”
Liang Jinggui pointed to a middle-aged cultivator in a black robe who was in the corner, introducing him to Chen Mobai.
“Such a grand demeanor, he truly lives up to his reputation as a powerful foundation establishment expert.”
With preconceived impressions in mind, Chen Mobai had extremely high praises for Yuan Hongyuan.
Due to the presence of the Divine Wood Sect in Jian Country, there were fewer conflicts within the country, therefore neither Fu Xiuzuo nor Liang Jinggui had tested Yuan Hongyuan’s abilities. They believed he was a formidable character based on usual rumors.
“Hong Xu has arrived.”
After a while, a square-faced cultivator with large ears entered the shop, and Liang Jinggui identified him as the leader of the Loose Repair Alliance in Jian Country.
Apart from Hong Xu, the Tang siblings whom they had encountered at the entrance of the Tiankui Market also entered.
A while later, two Foundation Establishment cultivators, a man and a woman from Star Heaven Merchant Association, arrived, and Wang Gongdao immediately went up to greet them.
“Ladies and gentlemen, as the host, I’m fortunate to gather everyone here with the help of this sale. Without further ado, let’s begin.”
When Wang Gongdao saw that almost everyone he had invited had arrived, he no longer wasted everyone’s time and took out a golden fruit.
“This King Kong Fruit just ripened in my Wang family’s medicinal field. It is a Rank-3 treasure for cultivators who practice Body Forging. If any of you are interested, you can whisper your bids to me.”
Chen Mobai cast a glance around and saw that three or four Foundation Establishment cultivators seemed quite interested and they went up to examine the Rank-3 King Kong Fruit in Wang Gongdao’s hand.
Eventually, the male Foundation Establishment cultivator from Star Heaven Merchant Association offered a price that satisfied Wang Gongdao the most. The two of them then went to the back hall to plete the transaction.
“We have some Rank-2 Mountain Suppression Stones and Rank-2 Fire in Stone Seeds. Those interested can speak to us in detail.”
After buying the King Kong Fruit, the cultivator from Star Heaven Merchant Association also brought out his spiritual objects. Mountain Suppression Stones are generally indispensable in the setup of large formations. In large formations, it can make the connection between the formation and the Spiritual Energy of the earth tighter, unleashing its true power.
A few Loose Foundation Establishment cultivators seemed quite interested in the Mountain Suppression Stones. They had plans to turn their bloodline into cultivator families, so the formations of spiritual lands were key.
A formation with a Mountain Suppression Stone possessing it is a primary condition for a long-lasting heritage.
However, the price of this Mountain Suppression Stone was just too astronomical, these Loose Cultivators individually couldn’t afford it, and after discussing with the representative from the Star Heaven Merchant Association, they all were tactfully declined.
“May I ask fellow Daoist, what is the price for the Fire in Stone Seed?”
Chen Mobai approached and asked, the man from Star Heaven Merchant Association whispered back that it was ten thousand Spirit Stones, or an equal grade True Fire Seed in exchange.
This was a similar price to Qingyang Fire Seed.
Chen Mobai nodded his agreement, as this condition was quite suitable for him.
Although he didn’t have ten thousand Spirit Stones, he did have refined Qingyang Fire.
Upgrading the Qingyang Fire Seed to a plete Qingyang Fire took him a lot of time and resources, but downgrading the Qingyang Fire back to its seed form was relatively easy.
For other cultivators in the Divine Wood Sect, however, this process would typically take more than a year.
But under the aid of the Enlightenment Tea, Chen Mobai had already grasped the essence of the Pure Yang Ignition Technique, enabling him to ignite the Qingyang Fire from nothing.
Using the remaining Qingyang Fire after condensing Sword Demons as raw material, he was confident he could ignite a fire seed within a few days.
“I have a Qingyang Fire Seed in the sect, but it will take a few days to retrieve it. I wonder if Daoist friend can wait for a while.”
Upon hearing this, the man from Star Heaven Merchant Association couldn’t help but light up his eyes and asked Wang Gongdao about Chen Mobai’s identity.
“So it is Daoist Chen from Divine Wood Sect. I’m Lou Xuelong. Your sect’s Qingyang Fire is a famous spiritual object even in the neighboring territories. I’ll reserve this Fire in Stone Seed for you.”
Lou Xuelong, whether out of courtesy or because he really heard of Chen Mobai’s reputation, smilingly beckoned to the other Foundation Establishment cultivators in the guest hall, signaling that the Fire in Stone Seed was off the market.
After leaving each other’s Message Talisman, it was the turn of the third Foundation Establishment cultivator.
“I accidentally obtained a fragment of an Elixir Scripture. It contains two plete formulae that can refine two types of pills, respectively, to increase the cultivation levels at the early and middle stages of Foundation Establishment.”
As soon as Hong Xu of the Loose Repair Alliance spoke, he caught the attention of all Foundation Establishment cultivators in the hall.
In the Tianhe Realm, pill formulas are hard currency.
Some cultivator families rely on a few pill formulas and refining methods to pass on their legacy. For instance, the Bai family of Snow Peak, their Tea Dan Method can enlighten one’s spirit and increase Divine Sense, making them extremely popular among Qi Practitioners.
By virtue of this, they even prospered in the White Moon Market. Every spring, when there is a bountiful harvest of spiritual tea leaves, Loose Cultivators from neighboring countries, even those from Snow Country, flock there to buy Tea Dan. They cultivate their Divine Sense with these Tea Dans.
The Bai family of Snow Peak, by selling Tea Dan, firmly controls a part of the Qi Practitioner market. This makes them one of the richest among the seven major families of Jian Country.
