Chapter 2288: Chapter 163: Exchange_3
A beam of light shot out from the list, scanned it once, and then trembled slightly, not showing any words for a long ti.
Wang Ba frowned slightly.
At this mont, a cautious voice suddenly ca from outside the quiet room:
“Taoist Friend Taiyi, I am the guardian of the treasure chamber. I wonder if I could have a word with you?”
Upon hearing this, Wang Ba instinctively glanced at the armband hanging on the list and imdiately understood, softly saying:
“Please co in.”
He raised his hand to open the door of the quiet room. An elderly man with long whiskers, wearing a cloud-patterned reddish-brown robe, stood outside the quiet room, greeted Wang Ba with a gesture, and carefully walked in.
As soon as he entered, his gaze involuntarily fell on the Dao Treasure armband on the list page, and a look of mixed delight flashed in his eyes.
However, he did not forget his purpose and quickly spoke to Wang Ba:
“Taoist Friend, are you intending to exchange this treasure for cloud beads?”
Wang Ba nodded:
“That’s right. You ca here, do you have anything to say?”
The old man with long whiskers quickly shook his head:
“There’s nothing to say, it’s just that I’ve never encountered soone willing to exchange a top-grade Dao Treasure, so our treasure chamber hasn’t much expertise in this area…”
Wang Ba understood his aning, raised his hand to lightly summon the armband into the other’s hand.
The old man’s face was full of uncontrolled joy. Not daring to delay, he quickly took out a few treasures, activated the Innate Cloud Ban, and conducted several checks on the armband.
After a brief mont, the old man finally rubbed his hands, nodded, and said:
“It is indeed a top-grade Dao Treasure… but its power is average, and the Innate Cloud Ban just barely ets the threshold for a top-grade Dao Treasure. If you still want to exchange it for cloud beads, I can, on behalf of the Sect, offer a price of eighty million.”
“Only eighty million…”
Hearing this price, Wang Ba felt a hint of disappointnt.
He had expected at least one or two hundred million, but it turned out to be only that much.
Even with this eighty million deducted, there was still a gap of over seven hundred million.
“Forget it, let’s exchange for the most needed items first; we can talk about the others later if the opportunity arises.”
Wang Ba silently made a decision, then said:
“Then exchange it for cloud beads.”
The old man’s face was filled with joy as he quickly accepted the armband Dao Treasure. The number of cloud beads before Wang Ba increased by eighty million.
Wang Ba then selected what he needed most from among them, such as the Tribulation Crossing Divine Pill, Nine-Colored Divine Soil, a dozen Unification Spirit Beasts, and world bones.
He exchanged them all.
These items swiftly flew out from the list one by one.
Wang Ba’s gaze swept over the Nine-Colored Divine Soil. Although it was nad Nine-Colored, it actually appeared to be a re hint of black and about the size of a millstone.
And among the eight world bones collected by the Cloud Sky Sect, each had a different color and size, indicating that the rules contained within them varied significantly.
Looking at the few world bones before him, Wang Ba felt a stirring in his heart:
“This item can indeed also help comprehend different rules and continue to perfect my Dao Domain.”
Though he had just entered the early-stage Crossing Tribulation, his expertise in rules far surpassed that of his peers. Previously, in the Illusory Realm cast by Heavenly Monarch Chao with the Silkworm Dragon Staff, he had comprehended Divine Beast Rules for a full eight thousand years. Although it was an Illusory Realm, the rules were genuine. Now, it was only a matter of ti before his Dao Domain grew completely from these rules, allowing him to successfully break into the Ninth-Tier Dao Domain, after which nurturing his Primordial Spirit would be sufficient to step into the middle-stage Crossing Tribulation.
It was rely a matter of ti.
However, the old man with long whiskers, seeing that Wang Ba had forgone so of his originally chosen items, suddenly spoke up:
“Taoist Friend, do you need more cloud beads?”
Wang Ba slightly nodded upon hearing this:
“Do you have a way?”
The items he selected were all ones he or the Little Cang World could use, and if possible, he certainly wanted to obtain all the treasures he had selected.
Though the old man was the treasure chamber’s guardian, he seed to know about Wang Ba’s recent feats and suggested:
“Taoist Friend, having already slain several Bodhisattvas and erged victorious in magical combats, there is likely none in the sa realm superior to you. Recently, Supre True Buddha has been frequently inviting duels outside, and the disturbances after losing are quite nurous. Given your skills, you could consider taking action, and our Sect would offer cloud beads in return.”
“Magical combat?”
Wang Ba’s expression remained unchanged, calm and composed.
Since coming to the Cloud Sky Realm, engaging in magical combat with others was expected, and he was not opposed to it.
But still, as the saying goes, being a newcor, it’s often better to observe and listen more, and speak and act less.
At present, he rely nodded and asked:
“Can the items I haven’t exchanged yet be left for now?”
The old man showed a slightly troubled expression:
“I can temporarily hold them for you, but other Taoist friends may also co to exchange. It’s best if you don’t delay too long.”
Wang Ba said nothing.
He couldn’t say for sure how long the delay would be, and without significant assurance, he wasn’t prepared to act rashly.
The previous lilight was due to necessity, and once was enough.
He then took his leave and left the treasure chamber.
However, he found Chen Zhongqi still waiting outside.
“Sorry for the wait.”
“Not at all.”
Hearing this, Chen Zhongqi withdrew his gazing eyes, quickly waved his hand, but his face still bore a few traces of barely concealed anxiety.
Wang Ba slightly moved his gaze, looking in the direction Chen Zhongqi had been watching, which was outside the Cloud Sky Realm. There, he saw light flowing, and Dao Domains overlapping, and faintly heard a commotion, causing him to slightly furrow his brows:
“Is the magical combat still not over?”
Hearing Wang Ba ntion it, Chen Zhongqi couldn’t hide his emotions and angrily said:
“Indeed, each ti they invite a duel, the rules are set by those from the Supre True Buddha. This ti, the rule is that the first to win six out of ten matches is the victor. Three matches have already passed, with only one victory. It’s feared this round won’t succeed either… It’s regrettable that I cannot personally go; otherwise, I would surely cut that demon monk down with my sword!”
