The Ancient Serpent rchant Guild, from the outside, appears to have only seven floors.
When Chu Fengmian arrived at the Ancient Serpent rchant Guild, he sensed that there was indeed an eighth floor in existence. However, the eighth floor of the guild was hidden by so sort of restriction, making it invisible from the outside.
Even when Chu Fengmian entered the guild, he hadn’t noticed the existence of the eighth floor.
Clearly, the eighth floor of the Ancient Serpent rchant Guild was set up by a powerful expert, at least a quasi-emperor. Chu Fengmian only realized this hidden floor upon tracking Hong Mu’s movents.
The Ancient Serpent rchant Guild is far more mysterious than it appears from the outside.
Chu Fengmian’s Spiritual Sense had reached close to the eighth floor when he slowly withdrew it, realizing that if his Spiritual Sense recklessly entered the eighth floor, it might be detected by the guild’s powerful experts.
Chu Fengmian did not wish to alert the enemy prematurely, so he withdrew his Spiritual Sense.
It seems that within the Ancient Serpent rchant Guild, at least one quasi-emperor-level expert is guarding it.
After Hong Mu left for a while, he soon returned. The contemplative expression on his face had disappeared, indicating he had made a decision.
"Well?"
Chu Fengmian watched Hong Mu enter and sat calmly, without any tension.
Even if the Ancient Serpent rchant Guild refused to sell blood stones to Chu Fengmian, he could always visit other rchant guilds. Other guilds also sold blood stones, though the Ancient Serpent rchant Guild had the largest stock.
If they didn’t sell, it would rely be a slight inconvenience for Chu Fengmian to visit multiple guilds, not affecting him too adversely.
"Mr. Chu, our Ancient Serpent rchant Guild understands that your wealth is boundless. We are willing to befriend you, and we can sell you the blood stones. However, even if you wish for a large batch, our guild can’t supply it. After all, blood stones are not abundant in our guild."
Hong Mu addressed Chu Fengmian.
"As for the price, you can have them at ten million each, just as a gesture of friendship."
"How many blood stones are there?"
Upon hearing Hong Mu’s words, Chu Fengmian frowned.
To break through to the Heavenly Realm, he would need an astronomical number of blood stones, at least over one hundred thousand, possibly even two hundred thousand to ensure stability.
From what it sounds like, the number of blood stones isn’t large?
"Thirty thousand. That’s the maximum our Ancient Serpent rchant Guild can sell you," Hong Mu replied.
Thirty thousand.
This amount was even less than Chu Fengmian had anticipated. Preparing for his breakthrough required at least one hundred thousand blood stones. These thirty thousand, though not insignificant, were still insufficient.
"Not enough,"
Chu Fengmian shook his head.
For other Martial Artists, thirty thousand blood stones would suffice, but for Chu Fengmian, it was far from enough to aid his breakthrough.
Though Chu Fengmian could use so sacred dicines to make up for the lack of Spiritual Power, it would impede his goal of bloodline advancent.
Bloodline advancent is significantly more crucial than re Realm advancent.
Chu Fengmian could dominate others within the sa Realm and even fight across Realms, relying on his strong bloodline and countless unparalleled encounters.
However, the stronger Chu Fengmian becos, the less advantageous his miraculous encounters seem, especially upon reaching the Emperor Realm range.
Anyone able to step into the Emperor Realm was a genius, each having countless encounters, making them the most dazzling talents of their era, capable of stepping into the Emperor Realm.
Facing such figures, Chu Fengmian’s advantages would not be so apparent, which is why he avoids conflict with the quasi-emperor for now.
Bloodline breakthrough is urgent; Chu Fengmian, once elevating his bloodline, would retain an advantage even when stepping into the Emperor Realm range.
Hong Mu did not expect Chu Fengmian to outright refuse his offer.
Even major family purchases would be on the scale of thirty thousand, being used for the ascension of countless disciples’ bloodlines within a family.
For a breakthrough to the Destiny Realm, hundreds or thousands of blood stones would suffice.
"Mr. Chu, thirty thousand blood stones should be enough for your breakthrough, even for stepping into the Eternal Realm," Hong Mu advised.
He suspected Chu Fengmian might not fully understand the use of blood stones, prompting him to seek such large quantities.
"The power of these blood stones becos useless once reaching the Eternal Realm, and hoarding them would be futile,"
Listening to Hong Mu, Chu Fengmian couldn’t help but smile wryly.
He knew blood stones would be useless past the Eternal Realm, but the thirty thousand offered weren’t even enough for him to reach the Heavenly Realm.
Compared to others, Chu Fengmian needed resources for breakthroughs exceeding thousands of tis those for ordinary individuals, and this need would only grow with his wealth.
Fortunately, Chu Fengmian had Divine Veins, allowing him to condense Spirit Stones anyti, providing him with ample wealth to support his resource purchases.
But even in his current Realm, abundant wealth didn’t guarantee access to necessary resources, the blood stones being one example.
"Surely, the Ancient Serpent rchant Guild has more than thirty thousand blood stones. If you could provide one hundred thousand, I’d pay fifty million per stone,"
Chu Fengmian offered calmly.
He was willing to pay any price for the opportunity of a breakthrough using one hundred thousand blood stones, even if it exhausted his five trillion wealth.
As long as he could break through to the Heavenly Realm, he could restore his wealth within days.
"This..."
A troubled expression crossed Hong Mu’s face; this was the first ti he encountered such a situation.
The Ancient Serpent rchant Guild couldn’t even fulfill his request. Especially hearing Chu Fengmian’s offer of fifty million per stone, which struck like thunder in his mind,
As five trillion wealth exceeded even the assets of the guild, drawing them out in one go was nearly impossible.
"Fifty thousand, Mr. Chu, that’s the limit our Guild can supply, regardless of the price,"
