Asura Emperor Venerable-Chapter 751: Arrogance
Chapter 751: Chapter 751: Arrogance
Actually, if Shi Hao were willing to reveal the secret of the Immortal Abode, he could have definitely sold a portion of the World Tree Essence for a high price, as I believe there would have been plenty of peerless great entities willing to purchase it for their descendants.
But a greater possibility was that both the Immortal Abode and the World Tree Essence would have been stolen, with Shi Hao meeting a violent end.
There was no helping it—without sufficient strength, but possessing a treasure that others coveted, was of course asking for hostility.
Expect others to be kind?
Hehe.
Indeed, there are good people in the world, but there are also bad ones.
So, what about Immortal Stones?
The Purple Gold Rat said that these are used for the cultivation of Immortals, containing the secrets of the great Dao, but the problem is that this stuff is too high-end, and even for those capable of building the Sky Ladder, it’s garbage, completely useless.
Then how much can you expect the Sky Ladder builders to pay for it?
Besides, you face the same issue—aren’t you afraid of being robbed?
Of course, you could entrust it to an auction house, but the key is, if no one rushes to buy it, can you sell it for a high price?
"If I could get in touch with those few from the Immortal Realm, it might be worth a try," Shi Hao muttered. However, it was not easy for those from the Immortal Realm to come down, and the longer they stayed, the more time they would have to spend in the Immortal Realm washing away the influence of the Mortal Realm in order to cultivate. Who would be willing to do that?
Coming down to the Mortal Realm occasionally to show off and have some fun was fine, but if they frequently did so, he guessed the senior members of their sect might kill them.
"So, this path is also unworkable."
Shi Hao murmured, sighing.
He clearly possessed treasures of immense value, each of which could make him incredibly wealthy with just a casual sale, but he was unable to act, too afraid to act, and could only watch over them himself. Isn’t that a sad state of affairs?
"All right, then I will find my own way to make money."
Shi Hao immediately perked up.
"What to use to make money?"
"Alchemy technique?"
"Array Path?"
"Talismanic Soldier?"
After thinking for a long time, Shi Hao decided to start with the Array Path.
This was because when he went to Yunding Star, he had purchased a large amount of formation materials, originally intended to repair the Teleportation Arrays, but since the Liu Family had "prepared" it for him, these materials naturally ended up being saved.
Now, he just had to process them a bit and sell the Formation Bases, which should allow him to earn quite a bit of money.
"That’s settled then."
Shi Hao began to study the Array Path. He had previously focused on studying Teleportation Arrays, but now he was not making that kind of Formation Base, so he naturally had to start over.
"Third Kings Great Ta Formation."
Shi Hao pulled out a formation technique from his memory—it was a six-star level formation that could be deployed quickly, then draw power from Spirit Stones to unleash an attack at the Supplementing Divine Temple level; its power was astonishing.
The difficulty of crafting this formation was quite high, but Shi Hao’s Soul Force was so strong that when he inscribed the Formation Patterns, he achieved perfection, which greatly enhanced the explosive power of the Third Kings Great Ta Formation.
Of course, it still hadn’t broken through to the Great Sacrificial Heaven level, but Shi Hao believed that there were plenty of rich second generations willing to spend a fortune on it.
With the Formation Base in hand, he headed to the Formation Store.
He chose the largest Formation Store in the city, which was founded by a six-star Formation Master. Since the city’s martial arts standards were not very high, and the Great Sacrificial Heaven was the strongest, a six-star Formation Master was certainly very impressive.
As Shi Hao entered the store, he saw that each of the emboldened employees acted superior, with not a single one coming up to greet him.
You should know, he hadn’t even mentioned that he was actually there to sell a Formation.
Is this how you treat guests?
Shi Hao had stood for at least three breaths of time, yet all the clerks still treated him as if he were invisible, exuding an arrogance as if their store’s Formations were not in need of sales, but rather, it was he who would need to kneel and beg.
Hmph.
Shi Hao shook his head, walked over to a clerk, and said, "I have a Formation I want to sell to you."
"What?" The clerk immediately let out a scoff, his face showing disdain, "Our esteemed JW Formation Store needs to purchase Formations made by others? Do you not know that our store owner is a Six-Star Formation Master? Have your dog eyes gone blind? Get out of here at once." freewёbnoνel.com
Shi Hao’s expression darkened. What kind of quality was this?
"Call over your person in charge," he demanded.
"Ha, you think you can intimidate me by calling for the person in charge?" the clerk sneered, "Fine, I’ll call him for you."
Soon enough, he brought over a fat middle-aged man.
"This is our person in charge," the clerk introduced.
Shi Hao looked at the middle-aged man, who wore an impatient expression, full of reluctance.
He suppressed his anger and said, "I want to sell a set of Formation—"
"What a joke!" Before Shi Hao could finish his sentence, the middle-aged man jumped up, "Are you blind? How dare you come to our JW Formation Store to hawk Formations, it’s a supreme insult!"
"Someone, throw him out!"
Now, the clerks became enthusiastic, all of them bristling with aggression, rolling up their sleeves as if ready for a fight.
Shi Hao chuckled, then boomed with an air of authority, instantly knocking everyone to the ground.
In this small city dominated by the Great Sacrificial Heaven, his status as an unmatched being from the Supplementing Divine Temple was akin to that of a deity.
He pulled out a damaged Formation Base and tossed it onto the ground: "Have your store owner take a look at this."
Despite being damaged, the Formation Base still showcased Shi Hao’s crafting level—absolutely that of a master.
With that, he left with an air of confidence.
"Person in charge!" a few clerks scrambled to their feet, looking toward the person in charge, the middle-aged man, "What do we do now?"
The middle-aged man, surnamed Jin and named Jin Dongli, was the nephew of the Jin Wu Formation Master, and his expression was extremely unsightly.
Thanks to his relation to Jin Wu, he was someone who straddled the skies, a man whom the young masters of prominent families in the city would give face to.
But now, he had been slapped in the face!
"Hmph, I will go find He Heng," decided Jin Dongli immediately, "He has always wanted to purchase the Sky Gathering Spirit Array, but it’s too troublesome to create and uncle has always been unwilling to make it. I believe He Heng will certainly be willing to take action in exchange for this array."
He hastened outside, obviously unable to swallow this blow lying down.
It wasn’t long before he arrived at the He Family.
The He Family was a prominent household in the city, their family patriarch a being of the Supplement God Temple Level, and even though they were not on par with the Zhang Family, they could still be considered a top force; after all, in the Great Sacrificial Heaven, there was only one Zhang Family.
Upon hearing of Jin Dongli’s visit, He Heng immediately ceased his cultivation and hurried out to meet him.
The Sky Gathering Spirit Array was capable of Gathering Heavenly and Earthly Spiritual Energy, accelerating cultivation, but its cost was exorbitant, and only wealthy households like the He Family could afford it.
However, the creation of this array was quite complicated, with a high rate of failure, hence Jin Wu was not willing to construct it.
Though he was the next heir of the He Family, he simply could not force Jin Wu to create a Formation for him—a Six-Star Formation Master was an entity who could sit on an equal footing with the He Family patriarch, and if he dared to press him, the patriarch would not hesitate to chop him up and apologize to Jin Wu.
Therefore, Jin Dongli’s visit was naturally a cause for great joy.
