Big Data Cultivation-Chapter 1243: Buying Family Information

Gong Yiyun wasn’t too worried about the fire poison; later, everything went smoothly, and his cultivation level gradually improved.

During this period, the fire poison recurred three times, each time weaker than before, so he didn’t take it seriously anymore.

But now, this secret has been revealed by someone, and the fire poison might affect his progression to a Higher Being, leaving him dumbfounded.

Feng Jun could judge that Gong Yannan was unaware because the residual fire poison in Gong Yiyun’s body was not a major concern, but Gong Yannan, as a transcendent being, letting his grandnephew progress under such circumstances was indeed a big deal.

It’s fine for young people to be ignorant, but you don’t understand either? So he judged that this was Gong Yiyun’s personal action.

When Gong Yannan heard his grandnephew say this, he let out a long sigh.

Twelve years ago, he didn’t remember his grandnephew being affected deeply by the fire poison, but he clearly remembered how the clan almost fell apart at that time, so he immediately understood—if he were Gong Yiyun, he wouldn’t dare to say the fire poison was severe back then.

Indeed, he could understand why his grandnephew chose to deceive him at the time.

But bringing up such an old matter, especially by an outsider, and more importantly... he paid for this information.

Gong Yannan didn’t know what it felt like to have ten thousand alpacas trampling through one’s heart, but he obviously felt something close to it now—damn, is this your answer to me?

Simultaneously, he also had a feeling that Feng Jun was likely telling the truth.

Such secrets aren’t something ordinary people would know.

In other words, when his grandnephew steps onto the Higher Being’s stage, there’s a high probability something will go wrong.

Understanding this, he felt that the trip was worthwhile, whether it was worth six thousand Spirit Stones was hard to say.

To put it in perspective, Gong Yiyun was only eighty years old and had a chance to progress to a Higher Being. Considering the Gong Family’s wealth, spending six thousand Spirit Stones was not much; not only is he young, but he is also the strongest genius the Gong Family has seen in nearly two hundred years.

Now the crucial question is, how significant is the fire poison’s impact on him? Considering this, Gong Yannan asked solemnly, "May I ask, Feng Jun, to what extent has the fire poison reached?"

Feng Jun knew what he wanted to ask, so he smiled, "Fire poison has entered the marrow, but it doesn’t matter."

Poison in the marrow doesn’t matter? This isn’t just idle talk; in the Earth Realm, it might be awful, but for cultivators on the Mobile Plane, dealing with toxins in the bone marrow isn’t difficult. For instance, if the fire poison entered the Yin Meridian, it would be more troublesome than if it affected the marrow.

There are even more troubling cases... for example, if the fire poison entered the sea of knowledge.

Of course, poison in the marrow is already quite troublesome, at least with Gong Yannan’s experience, he knew progressing to a Higher Being wasn’t realistic without proper remedies—otherwise, there’s a 99% chance of failure.

If entering the Higher Being realm were so easy, each of the Four Great Sect would have hundreds of thousands of disciples, and yet the count of Higher Beings per sect wouldn’t exceed a thousand.

Gong Yannan felt relieved upon hearing it entered the marrow—such things aren’t difficult to handle; the fearful part is being unaware.

Even so, he couldn’t let Gong Yiyun progress within the next decade; the difference between being eighty years old and ninety years old in transcendent initial phase is quite significant.

Hence he asked, "May I ask Mountain Master Feng, does my six thousand Spirit Stones only buy a diagnosis? Don’t you think you should offer some suggestions for our reference?"

Feng Jun smiled again, "Haha, of course, your clan has poor communication, pointing that out is no big deal."

Gong Yannan only felt his face grow hot and thought he had never met such an annoying smile in his life.

But what could he say? He still relied on the other party to propose some reasonable suggestions, "Then I am eager to hear Mountain Master Feng’s insights."

"No particular insights," Feng Jun waved his hand and spoke calmly, "Just progress steadily."

What are you saying? Gong Yannan was directly baffled, progress steadily?

Feng Jun hadn’t finished speaking; he continued, "You inclined to have him progress by using the Mysterious Iron Body Gu, right? This Gu is fine, combined with Ice Spirit Gu Egg and Thousand-Year Fire Essence Grass, the fire poison will become his aid."

The Gu insects offered had Mysterious Iron Body Gu and Ice Spirit Gu Egg, but these are two different paths of development, both compatible with Gong Yiyun; however... progressing with Mysterious Iron Body Gu, combined with Ice Spirit Gu Egg, what kind of situation is this?

Gong Yannan’s first reaction was to retort sarcastically, but he thought Feng Jun was unlikely to be so frivolous, so he pondered. After a long time, he tentatively spoke, "Use Mysterious Iron Body Gu... to absorb the Ice Spirit Gu Egg?"

Feng Jun smiled and applauded, "You see, I knew you’d figure it out, this design is pretty good, right?"

"To be honest, I don’t think it’s that great," Gong Yannan wasn’t someone who minced words, "it will cause serious attribute conflicts, and while I don’t mind trying it out myself, it’s a bit sudden to have it fall on Yiyun."

"Your intelligence is somewhat lacking," Feng Jun casually countered, "I didn’t push you; you were the one asking for my advice... you can, of course, choose not to agree."

Gong Yannan fell silent, carefully reassessing his own intelligence and felt that this matter seemed somewhat unreliable. Of course, he didn’t say this outright, but instead tactfully asked, "The Thousand-Year Fire Essence Grass wasn’t on the table, was it?"

Fire Essence Grass is a common herb with a wide range of uses. Fire Essence Grass that is one or two years old can fetch a good price, while those that are ten years old can sell at a high price.

Let’s put it this way, the Crimson Phoenix Sect primarily cultivates the rigid Yang Fire System, and they have a large demand for Fire Essence Grass. They take in as much as they can get—provided it is at least fifty years old to qualify for the Crimson Phoenix Sect’s purchase.

A Thousand-Year Fire Essence Grass is extremely rare, with each plant worth over a hundred Spirit Stones and capable of treating some attribute issues. Its rarity is somewhat similar to that of bezoar on the Earth Plane.

Feng Jun collected two Thousand-Year Fire Essence Grasses from the Lantern Town Pan Residence’s storeroom and specifically scanned them. With the related virtual data, he could easily arrive at a conclusion.

The most crucial point is that he came up with this solution on his own, without matching several Natural Treasures to reach a conclusion. He was quite proud of himself—feeling a sense of intellectual superiority.

So, he smiled nonchalantly and said, "It wasn’t on the table, but I have it with me."

Gong Yannan was taken aback again... so he had to buy the Thousand-Year Fire Essence Grass? fɾeewebnoveℓ.co๓

Although he doesn’t usually engage in trading, he still knows the going prices. One or two hundred Spirit Stones isn’t too expensive, but... he doesn’t have the money.

Of course, the key concern is whether this solution is suitable, "Could I trouble Mountain Master Feng to explain the principle?"

"Let me explain," Kong Ziyi spoke up. She wasn’t sure how to address the other party’s ailment, but retrospectively deducing from the result, it became easier. "The Thousand-Year Fire Essence Grass is an introverted fire element, perfect for drawing out the marrow fire..."

"So, having the Gu Insect that has swallowed the Ice Spirit Gu Egg... what’s that Gu called? Never mind, let’s not discuss this. Let me make a simple judgment, your grandnephew likely has a Yin-Yang Physique, am I right?"

Gong Yannan was dumbfounded... just like that... Yiyun’s physique was determined? Major sect disciples are truly terrifying?

She couldn’t determine the subcategories of the Yin-Yang Physique, but even so, it was already incredibly impressive, wasn’t it?

After some hesitation, he asked, "Kong Immortal, can he directly advance?"

"How can you..." At this point, even An Yuhong understood, "You don’t get it? First, take some Fire Essence Grass, and the rest will be addressed during the advance."

Gong Yannan mulled it over and understood, "First take some Fire Essence Grass to connect the internal and external, and then take more during the advancement process, is that the procedure?"

All three nodded simultaneously, silently marveling: Gu Cultivators’ cultivation knowledge really is lacking.

Even without them saying it, Gong Yannan could see their expressions but he was helpless. Gu Cultivators are indeed different from the mainstream. After pondering, he asked, "I wonder if Immortal Feng would be willing to part with the Thousand-Year Fire Essence Grass he has?"

Feng Jun chuckled and shook his head, "You should buy it at the Fang Market; it’s not exactly rare."

Gong Yannan hesitated for a moment before speaking, "I know I made a mistake before, but I still hope to borrow it from Mountain Master Feng on credit."

"That’s over the top, right?" Feng Jun spoke with a half-smile, "You still owe me five hundred Spirit Stones, and now you want to borrow more? Let me make it clear... I absolutely will not accept the pledge of Green Silk Spirit Grass Gu again."

Gong Yannan really had such intentions, but hearing the outright refusal, he couldn’t help but ask, "Why not?"

But as soon as he asked, he regretted it, and immediately followed up, "I would like to inquire with Mountain Master Feng, since you buy this Parasitic Insect to treat mortals, would you be interested in purchasing some other Gu Insects that can also treat mortal illnesses?"

Gong Yannan wasn’t sure why Feng Jun had sympathy for mortals, but considering that there were many mortals in Mount Zhige, he had thought about helping Feng Jun collect some other medical Gu.

However, after arriving, the business went smoothly, his assets skyrocketed immediately, and he temporarily didn’t want to mention it—because if the other party really needed it, he would need to go out collecting, which not only took time but could also expose the previous "gouging price."

Later, as negotiations became a bit tense, he never brought up the matter again, until now when his Spirit Stones were depleted and he needed to procure other things. That was when he had no choice but to bring up this topic.

Huh? Feng Jun gave him a surprised look, thinking that among the cultivators on the Outdust Stage, there were indeed few easy ones. He hadn’t even said anything yet, but Gong Yannan had figured it out himself. Without revealing his emotions, he asked, "What kind of ailments can it treat?"

Gong Yannan had also considered this question, so he mentioned that the Gu Insects could help mortals stop bleeding and could also nourish energy and blood—provided nutritional intake is sufficient. There is also a Stench Gu, which can even parasitize in the kidneys, replacing the kidneys’ original functions.

Feng Jun was quite interested in such Gu Insects because if handled well, they could save patients with kidney failure. In his impression, there was a considerable number of kidney disease patients in the country.
