Chapter 1121: Chapter 1029: Trade_2
Li Zhirui aimlessly walked on the main street until he saw Zhuge from before, calculating silently in his heart and then smiled, “I didn’t expect your efficiency to be quite fast.”
It hasn’t even been half an hour, and the negotiations are already settled, such speed is indeed astonishing.
“Who is this?”
“Jiang Heng, the Top Imperial Exam Scholar of the previous session, also responsible for negotiating with you,” replied Zhuge Qing.
Zhuge Qing said, “This matter is not convenient to discuss here, please follow us to another place.”
“Alright.” Li Zhirui followed the two n without any worry, eventually entering a restaurant near the royal palace.
After the three were seated, Zhuge Qing didn’t waste ti with unnecessary probing and directly conveyed the king’s ssage, his gaze intently fixed on Li Zhirui, “May I ask what you are willing to exchange for the complete Human Dao dynasty?”
He was very eager to see what soone of unknown cultivation level, but who gave him a strong sense of oppression, ensuring his cultivation could not be low, would be able to offer.
Li Zhirui pondered for a mont, then took out a Pill Recipe, insights, along with all corresponding Spirit Seeds and various Spiritual Objects, among which, the most valuable were ten Cultivation Techniques that could cultivate to the Void Refinent Realm!
The Precious Pill made according to that Pill Recipe was used for healing wounds with extrely good effects, only the Grade was sowhat high, it was a Seventh Rank Pill Recipe.
After thinking for a while, Li Zhirui took out a blank Jade Slip and inscribed a lot of content within it.
“What do you two think of my offer? Are the items I presented enough to exchange for the Human Dao dynasty’s thods?” asked Li Zhirui with a smile, after withdrawing his Divine Sense an hour later.
Zhuge Qing took the Jade Slip and examined it, although he was not a Cultivator, with luck’s empowernt, his strength was pretty formidable, and his Divine Sense was not weak either.
After a few glances, Zhuge Qing imdiately secured the Jade Slip, his expression quite solemn as he said, “With just this Jade Slip, your excellency could trade for a significant portion of the thods!”
“I need to go back and report, please excuse .”
Li Zhirui watched his hasty departure with a slight smile on his lips, the content in the Jade Slip was disjointed and very chaotic, written based on his own previous experiences and observations.
It didn’t transcend the era, and combining with the cultivation civilization, it was various asures to strengthen mortals.
To the Cultivation forces, such asures were just like chicken ribs – of little value, but for this small dynasty, they were a marvelous strategy for rapid growth.
As long as the dynasty could progress further, the king becoming emperor, their Human Daoist magic network would be even stronger, by then they too would obtain nurous benefits.
Jiang Heng, who was watching the excited departure and was left behind, was full of curiosity about the contents of the Jade Slip, what kind of content was it that made the ever composed Zhuge panic?
“Sir, since you have ti to spare, why not tell about the Human Daoist magic network, and the major affairs of the dynasty?” Li Zhirui interjected, interrupting Jiang Heng’s thoughts.
“Alright.” Jiang Heng gladly agreed, he also wanted to know about Cultivators.
anwhile, Zhuge Qing, who reached the king in just a few breaths, imdiately passed the Jade Slip over.
The king, who had been calm and collected, showed visible excitent upon examining the Jade Slip — this was indeed a grand gift for them!
Indeed, the content within the Jade Slip was not written in full by Li Zhirui, only describing half, after all, he hadn’t received the thods yet.
The king quickly cald down and said, “This man could not possibly be unaware of how much these thods could benefit the dynasty, yet he still offered them; one wonders what he is thinking.”
“But whatever the case may be, we must not let this great opportunity slip by!”
A sharp light flashed in the king’s eyes, regardless of the other’s intentions, as long as one possesses a great power, any sche or trickery could be forcefully overthrown!
“Tomorrow, please have this Cultivator enter the palace, I shall deal with him personally and test this man!”
“Yes!” Zhuge Qing responded and silently withdrew.
At the sa ti, Li Zhirui continued to discuss with Jiang Heng, exchanging their knowledge on various topics that were not secrets.
For example, Li Zhirui learned that this small dynasty had already mobilized troops, preparing to expand their borders through exploration.
As said before, although there weren’t powerful forces in the State Domain where the dynasty was located, because of this, the strength of the Devil Race was quite substantial, and their biggest issue at the mont was the several Sixth Rank Great Devils blocking their path.
With the current strength of the dynasty, it wasn’t that there was no way to deal with Sixth Rank Devil Beasts, but if there were too many, the casualties would be heavy, and no one wanted to take responsibility for that.
Hence, there was much fanfare, but not much gain.
“Your excellency, the king invites you to enter the palace tomorrow for a personal trade,” said Zhuge Qing, arriving at just the right mont with good news.
“Very well.”
Li Zhirui also wanted to et the reigning king who had greatly advanced the Human Daoist magic network, so he naturally accepted the invitation.
As for the royal palace being the place where the kingdom’s luck was most abundant and the Human Daoist magic network was strongest, Li Zhirui didn’t care whether it would pose a threat to him.
Because he was confident he could leave safely, and if he really angered him, the dynasty would definitely be in for trouble!
A night without words.
In the early morning, Li Zhirui followed Zhuge Qing into the royal palace that had stood for hundreds of years.
The mont he stepped through the palace gates, he felt a powerful pressure; his strength was once again reduced to less than forty percent of his original power!
Soon, Li Zhirui saw the stately and imposing young king.
“Please have a seat, Your Excellency.”
Li Zhirui was not at all courteous; after all, he was not this person’s subject, and it was enough to give face.
“This is the complete Human Dao royal thods, please do not spread them recklessly.”
“Understood.” At the sa ti, Li Zhirui also took out a Jade Slip and other Spiritual Objects that he had promised.
“Your Excellency, please take back these Spiritual Objects, this Jade Slip alone is sufficient!”
Li Zhirui shook his head; he didn’t want to take advantage, or to put it another way, he didn’t want to owe any karma to the dynasty. What if the dynasty t with disaster? Wouldn’t he be dragged down too?
Seeing his insistence, the king could only order them to be accepted.
“I have a question for Your Excellency. You had noticed sothing ten years ago; why didn’t you directly co to the Capital but instead chose to reside in Yi City as a teacher?”
“It’s part of my training.”
Li Zhirui did not elaborate on the other half of the reason; he was worried about encountering danger.
It was only after confirming the existence of the Human Daoist magic network through a student and roughly determining the strength of the dynasty that Li Zhirui set off for the Capital.
“We’re even with the trade, I’ll take my leave now!”
Before his voice faded, Li Zhirui had vanished without a trace.
This move instantly intimidated so of the officials.
You see, they had conducted tests before and knew that the royal palace greatly suppressed Cultivators. A typical Lianxu Cultivator could barely use Divine Powers, and their potency was greatly diminished.
If one had even lower Cultivation, upon entering the royal palace, they would beco like mortals, completely unable to muster their Mana.
So, for Li Zhirui to be able to cast spells with ease in the great hall and leave, it was a truly astonishing feat for them, indicating his imnse strength.
“So that’s how it is! The concept is so ingeniously crafted!”
The king was engrossed in the contents of the Jade Slip, his words sounding cryptic to most present, yet Zhuge Qing had a slight understanding of the matter.
Soon, edicts started flowing from the royal palace, spreading out to various places.
At the sa ti, the original expansion efforts in all directions were put on hold. As for the territories already captured, people were naturally sent to manage them.
“I’ve gotten what I wanted, and the effect of refining my heart amidst the mortal world is gradually weakening. It’s ti to leave.” Directly leaving the Capital, Li Zhirui contemplated his next move.
A map of the surrounding area surfaced in his mind; not long after, he ca up with an idea.
“Falling Star State!”
It was over fifty thousand miles away, a place rich with dense Spiritual Energy.
But what was most noteworthy was that occasionally, Spiritual Objects would fall from beyond the skies!
Because these falling Spiritual Objects would twinkle with bright Spirit Light, hence the na.
Furthermore, Falling Star State was right at the edge of Mount Kunlun. Li Zhirui could first gain experience in Falling Star State to acclimate to the environnt and then enter Mount Kunlun.
