Rebuilding the Immortal Cultivator Clan

Chapter 2079 1508: Transaction (Part 2)

Looking at that person's posture, I'm afraid they'll get hold of a lot of Spirit Seeds, which would be a huge amount of Spirit Crystals!

"What?!"

Qing Si's face changed dramatically, exclaiming, "Jiu, you don't have that many Spirit Crystals on hand, how dare you agree to this transaction?"

"Opportunities come and go; you should understand that by now."

If those Spirit Seeds were intact, it would be nearly impossible for them to fall into Li Zhirui's hands.

"But if you can't come up with that amount of Spirit Crystals to complete the transaction, according to the contract, you'll be saddled with a massive debt with high interest, which you might not be able to pay off for tens of thousands of years!" Qing Si said anxiously.

"Don't worry."

He replied with a confident look, "Although I don't have many Spirit Crystals right now, since I dared to accept it, I naturally have the confidence to gather such a large amount of Spirit Crystals within seven days."

Qing Si wasn't very convinced. In his view, Li Zhirui had some skills, but not to that extent.

"I've been keeping some life-threatening secrets from you, but now, I think it's time for you to know."

Qing Si could understand this, but still didn't believe that with just those hidden secrets, he could gather a large number of Spirit Crystals in such a short time.

However, being on the street, it was inconvenient to inquire further, so he remained silent.

Before long, the two entered an inn, booked a standard room, and spent the last bit of Spirit Crystals that Li Zhirui had.

Upon entering the room, the first thing he did was set up a Formation to isolate and shield them from the outside world.

Soon after, he and Qing Si abruptly disappeared.

"Where is this place?"

When light reappeared before Qing Si's eyes, he was astonished to find himself in a realm planted with numerous rare Spiritual Objects.

"This place is my greatest secret, a Mysterious Space that grows with the rise of my Cultivation."

After Li Zhirui explained the main function of this space, Qing Si's first reaction was disbelief. How could such a heaven-defying place exist?!

Just by investing Spirit Stones, the growth speed of Spiritual Objects could be accelerated.

But after witnessing it with his own eyes, he had no choice but to believe.

"But even if you sold all these Spiritual Objects, you wouldn't be able to gather such a large amount of Spirit Crystals."

Despite the considerable number of Spiritual Objects, their Grade was too low to be sold in The Void, with only a few Heavenly Immortal Rank Spiritual Objects worth some Spirit Crystals.

"Who said I was selling Spiritual Objects?"

Li Zhirui looked at Qing Si with some surprise and said, "You've been with me for so many years, and you still don't know I'm a Heavenly Immortal Rank Great Alchemy Master?"

"Of course I know, but even if they were all Heavenly Immortal Rank Pills, it wouldn't make up for that amount of Spirit Crystals."

He offered no further explanation, simply saying, "Watch my skills."

Before he finished speaking, he summoned a Pill Furnace and began refining Pills.

The entire process was fluid and elegant, with an air of Dao Rhyme faintly appearing, indicating a high level of mastery.

Unbeknownst to him, Qing Si found himself captivated.

When the Pill came out of this batch, there were actually seven of them, and their Grade was quite good.

Then Qing Si saw that Li Zhirui didn't store the Pills in a Jade Bottle but held them in his hand, a white light emanating from them and entering the Pills.

Before long, he saw wisps of black gas escape from the Pills, and their quality changed, becoming more valuable.

Then, under Qing Si's wide-eyed gaze, a top-grade Heavenly Immortal Spirit Pill was freshly refined!

This increased the value of the Pills significantly.

"This... this... what is going on?!"

Having seen the whole process, there appeared to be nothing unusual about Li Zhirui's actions, yet how did mid-grade Pills suddenly become top-grade?

"Purification Principle."

Saying that, Li Zhirui immediately started on a second batch of Pills.

Leaving Qing Si in sudden realization, understanding how it was done.

"Perhaps, Jiu can really complete that transaction."

As for helping, all he could do was watch.

...

Meanwhile, elsewhere.

After the stall owner left, he began to reach out, looking to gather a large number of precious Spirit Seeds.

Through his efforts, it didn't take long before he managed to gather dozens of severely damaged Spirit Seeds of various ranks, easily earning one to two hundred Spirit Crystals, which made him overjoyed and encouraged.

He became even more engrossed in the matter.

Moreover, before long, he didn't need to run around contacting others, because his purchase of damaged Spirit Seeds became widely known among the business circles.

Consequently, those who had damaged Spirit Seeds simply sold them to him.

Although not valuable, only worth a dozen or so Spirit Crystals, they were happy to make use of otherwise useless items.

But some were eyeing the stall owner, curious to know why he was daringly buying up damaged Spirit Seeds.

Some even suspected he possessed a Secret Technique that could restore damaged Spirit Seeds, make them root and sprout!

As ridiculous as the rumor sounded, given the vastness of the Universe, anything is possible. Such Methods might just exist.

Back when Li Zhirui made this deal, he was even willing to offer hundreds of Spirit Crystals as a handling fee because he was new and unfamiliar at the Commerce, making it impossible for him to mobilize large-scale acquisitions.

The second reason was to avoid attracting malicious attention, as even though trading within the Commerce posed no danger, nor left any hidden risks, he still didn't want to expose himself.

After all, even in the vastness of The Void, he might run into someone by chance.

If that happened, he feared a relentless pursuit, unfavorable for his own cultivation.

"With so many Spirit Seeds, I wonder if that guy can muster enough Spirit Crystals for the trade?"

Having counted the Spirit Seeds in his hand, the stall owner suddenly felt a bit anxious.

Even though the contract contained the necessary penalties, Spirit Crystals couldn't be conjured out of thin air - they were all advanced by him!

...

There are no sun or moon cycles in The Void, but in the Ten Thousand Treasures Hall, artificial Sun and Taiyin existed high above, providing a clear distinction of time.

In a way, the Ten Thousand Treasures Hall could be seen as a world, albeit one without the proper Laws to qualify it fully as such, expanding within a Magic Artifact's space using Methods.

With only half a day left before Li Zhirui's seven-day deadline with the stall owner, he finally finished his alchemy and returned to the inn's room from the space.

"Let's go, sell these hard-earned Pills from the past few days. The Spirit Crystals from that should be enough to complete the transaction."

"Alright." Qing Si was also full of confidence because he had seen Li Zhirui's extraordinary mastery in the Tao of Alchemy firsthand!

If he hadn't seen it himself, he wouldn't have believed such an extravagant method existed, one that could elevate any Grade of Pill to top-grade.

The two of them pushed open the door and quickly walked into a store managed by the Chaos Commerce.

"Welcome, esteemed guests. What kind of Pills are you looking for? I won't claim our shop has it all, but we do have a wide array, including common Heavenly Immortal Rank Pills, all priced fairly."

Even just a small store clerk from the Chaos Commerce could exude such strong confidence and pride in the Commerce itself.

"We're not here to buy Pills; we're here to sell them," Li Zhirui stated their purpose.

"So, the esteemed guest is an Alchemist?! As long as your goods pass the Appraiser's inspection, our shop will purchase the Pills at a fair price as well."

"Please, follow me."

With that, the clerk led the way.
