Only oneself knows the hardships endured.
However, the effects have been tangible. Not only have the four skills of Pill Array Talisman been honed, but even four Flying Swords have been crafted.
As for the remaining four, it will have to wait until next year.
Just when Ji Yuan managed to accumulate 100,000 Mid-grade Spirit Stones for the first ti, he unexpectedly received a ssage from Zhou Jin.
Zhou Jin’s ssage was simple, just giving him an address and asking if he had ti to co over for a visit.
Ji Yuan didn’t worry about them acting in Lindong City, but he didn’t want to let them take the initiative, so he agreed, but proposed a new eting place.
Zhou Jin readily agreed.
On that day.
In a restaurant in the center of Lindong City, not far from the Black and White Divine Hall, Ji Yuan t with Zhou Jin, the Young Master of the Zhou Family.
"Speak, what’s the matter? As for the Void Nether Stones, discuss it next year. The ones from last year haven’t been used up yet."
Ji Yuan said straightforwardly.
Of course, he mainly could only buy 10 pounds of Void Nether Stones right now.
These 10 pounds of Void Nether Stones... can only be used to accommodate the [kitchen].
The Void Nether Stones are precious, Ji Yuan didn’t want to waste them on trivial buildings like the [kitchen].
"Oh, that’s no problem. This ti I called you out to discuss other matters."
Zhou Jin forced a smile.
"Other matters? What other matters do we have to discuss?"
Ji Yuan asked bluntly.
His aggressive words left Zhou Jin sowhat at a loss.
After forcing a few smiles unsuccessfully, he decided to drop the act.
Showed his cards.
"May I know which of the Eight Holy Lands you hail from?"
"Why, do I need to investigate backgrounds just to buy a Void Nether Stone? Why not talk about the origin of your Void Nether Stones, Young Master Zhou?"
Ji Yuan sneered.
He portrayed a domineering and unreasonable Demonic Cultivator to perfection.
"I didn’t an it like that."
Zhou Jin tugged at the corners of his mouth and hurriedly added, "Our Zhou Family’s situation now, you must have heard sowhat about it. I won’t say much. I just want to ask if the Holy Land behind you has any intentions regarding our Zhou Family?"
At this, the disdain and ridicule on Ji Yuan’s face eased a bit.
Indeed, during his ti in Lindong City.
He befriended a few acquaintances after the Heaven-Supporting Pill, earning from them many Spirit Stones and much information.
The Zhou Family... was one he had been particularly curious about, so he did know sothing about them.
The Zhou Family was originally an elder of the Bone Nightmare Sect, but unfortunately, after the founding elder, they never produced another Nascent Soul Cultivator.
Gradually, the Zhou Family was slowly being eaten away by new forces within the Bone Nightmare Sect, and they had no recourse.
Over ti, this has led to the current situation.
So when Zhou Jin spoke, Ji Yuan understood his intention imdiately. He wanted to change allegiance to another faction.
If Ji Yuan really had such connections, he could make a recomndation.
But as a Loose Cultivator, he was about to refuse when he heard Zhou Jin say:
"If you would help us, from now on, the Void Nether Stones... how about 90,000 for ten pounds?"
Zhou Jin said, rubbing his fingers together, instantly offering a profit of 10,000.
The original ten pounds of Void Nether Stones would have cost 100,000 Spirit Stones, now only 90,000.
So what about the extra 10,000 Spirit Stones?
Naturally, it would fall into Ji Yuan’s pockets as the middleman, at least according to Zhou Jin.
At this, the words at Ji Yuan’s lips were swallowed back.
If it really goes like this, the profit would be significant. Ji Yuan needed a large quantity of Void Nether Stones, and if he could get them all from the Zhou Family, he might save tens of thousands of Mid-grade Spirit Stones.
Such a big deal...
"This... is rather difficult." Ji Yuan frowned and said in a deep voice, "Given the present condition of your Zhou Family, you must be more aware than anyone else. One misstep, and it could damage our relationship with the Bone Nightmare Sect."
"How about this, 85,000 for ten pounds!"
Zhou Jin gritted his teeth and said, "This is the bottom line of our Zhou Family. If you genuinely help, upon success, there will be extra gratitude!"
"Alright! I’ll head back to the sect in a mont, discuss with the Sect Leader, and engage with so other Elders, but if it succeeds, the Zhou Family..."
Ji Yuan left his sentence vague.
"Rest assured, we will not scrimp on what’s essential."
"Good, then this ti, bring ten pounds of Void Nether Stones to tide over."
Ji Yuan, saying this, took out a Storage Bag.
In one go, not only did he obtain ten pounds of Void Nether Stones, but he also had 15,000 Mid-grade Spirit Stones left over.
How could such a deal not be made?
As for the future, just drag it out. First, get as much Void Nether Stone as possible.
In fact, Ji Yuan had an even bolder idea: to find a chance to kill Zhou Jin and see how much Void Nether Stone he had on him.
It’s a pity if he did that, it would only be a one-ti deal.
After the transaction, Ji Yuan didn’t linger and left imdiately.
After leaving the city for the north, he changed his identity and swaggered back to his Cave Mansion.
Conveniently using this chance to avoid the Zhou Family, waited until the next year to accumulate more Spirit Stones, then transact with them again, to see if he can acquire more Void Nether Stones to allow for more buildings.
On that day.
About half a month after eting Zhou Jin, while in the Celestial Craft Square refining a batch of Water-like Pills, Ji Yuan suddenly noticed soone lingering outside his Cave Mansion.
