I Practice Farming While the Rest Cultivates-Chapter 572 - 570 This is My Most Treasured Possession_1
Chapter 572: Chapter 570 This is My Most Treasured Possession_1
“Taoist friend, please wait for a moment, and first taste our Chamber’s self-developed Spiritual Tea.”
The courteous female cultivator handed Lu Xuan a cup of fragrant spiritual tea.
“Not bad.” ƒrēewebnoѵёl.cσm
Lu Xuan took a sip and the spirit-filled aura went down his throat, spreading to his limbs, and staying for a long time, making him feel extremely comfortable.
The two chatted for a bit, and the female cultivator tried to probe Lu Xuan’s background but was smoothly avoided by him.
“Cultivator Wen, you said you found a treasure that has never been seen before? I’m curious, let’s see what it is.”
A rough voice sounded from outside the room. Just as his voice fell, a tall elderly man hurry a huffed in.
The elder had a pair of fiery red eyes that were particularly striking on his face, with the appearance of pure white flames quietly burning within them.
“Brother Mu, it’s that Jade Lock.”
The female cultivator pointed at the Qingwei Jade Lock on the table while introducing him to Lu Xuan.
“Brother Mu is fond of collecting all sorts of strange treasures. He’s seen a lot and knows a lot. In our Chamber, his eyes are the sharpest.”
Lu Xuan just nodded and watched the elder who was engrossed with the Qingwei Jade Lock.
The elder levitated the Qingwei Jade Lock with a thin layer of spiritual light in his hands while observing every corner of this treasure carefully.
“It is indeed a fourth-grade treasure.”
Pure white flames surged within his eyes, covering almost the entirety of his eyeballs while thin threads stretched out to the depths of his eyes.
“These spirit marks seem to have the effect of sealing their target and changing its size. It should be a support type of treasure that can bind the target object once activated.”
“From its material, it should also have an enhancing effect against Demon Envoys.”
The elder, surnamed Mu, continued to speculate.
“Friend, you have a keen eye!”
Lu Xuan praised aloud.
“This treasure is called Qingwei Jade Lock and its functions don’t differ much from your speculations.”
Although this elder doesn’t possess Lu Xuan’s ability of obtaining the attributes directly from light orbs, he was able to figure out the functions of the Qingwei Jade Lock in a short time which is quite impressive.
“Hahaha, your praise is too much. The cultivator who was able to forge this treasure is the truly capable one!”
The towering man with red eyes felt greatly pleased by Lu Xuan’s compliment and laughed heartily.
“Alright, now that the treasure has been identified, I’ll take my leave.”
“If there’s a chance, we can talk again. I’d like to meet the cultivator who created this Jade Lock.”
The elder was of an impatient nature. After finishing his task, he gave Lu Xuan a salute, his figure flashed, and he disappeared.
“Taoist friend, let’s discuss the price for the Qingwei Jade Lock and the other artifacts.”
The gentle female cultivator turned her head to look at Lu Xuan.
“This fourth-grade Red Flame Sword, in perfect condition but with some wear, I am willing to offer five thousand five hundred low-grade spirit stones.”
“This third-grade protective artifact…”
The female cultivator individually priced each artifact collected from the Tribulation Cultivator, and the prices were all fair.
“As for this fourth-grade treasure, the Qingwei Jade Lock, it’s quite practical and rare, making it highly sought after among Foundation Establishment Cultivators.”
“The Sea Tower Chamber of Commerce is willing to offer nine thousand low-grade spirit stones, I wonder if you may accept, friend?”
The female cultivator said softly.
Her price was already quite a markup from a standard fourth-grade treasure, mainly because the Qingwei Jade Lock’s function is quite unique and practical, plus it’s quite rare, hence the high initial offer.
“Not to withhold anything from friend, this fourth-grade Qingwei Jade Lock is my treasured possession and I truly do not wish to part…”
Lu Xuan sighed.
“Ten thousand low-grade spiritual stones.”
“I really don’t want to part with it, but I have no choice.”
“After all, my family has been declining for many years, and the primary concern now is the continuation of the family. Things like the family treasure being leaked to the outside, aren’t that much of a concern anymore.”
“Handing it over to someone deserving is also a good choice.”
When Lu Xuan heard the female cultivator raise the price to ten thousand low-grade spirit stones, he very naturally changed his tone.
“Then the total is thirty-five thousand low-grade spirit stones, what do you think, Taoist friend?”
“Cultivator Wen, I have one more Qingwei Jade Lock on me, I wonder if you have an interest in it?”
Lu Xuan laughed, taking out another pure white Jade lock from his storage bag.
“How many more do you have?”
The female cultivator was stunned, and asked.
“This is the last one.”
Lu Xuan still knew the principle of scarcity enhancing value. Although he still had a few Qingwei Jade Locks, the chance that the Jade Dew Fruit light orb would give this kind of treasure was not low, but if he admitted it truthfully, he would not be able to sell it at such a high price of ten thousand spirit stones.
“Alright, I will still use the same price and will purchase it together.”
Upon hearing this, the graceful female cultivator exhaled, fearing that Lu Xuan would pull out a large number of the so-called family treasures.
In that case, she would have seemed like a bit of a fool.
“Here are four hundred and fifty middle-grade spirit stones, please check, Taoist friend.”
After receiving the second Qingwei Jade Lock, a pile of shimmering spirit stones floated over to Lu Xuan.
Lu Xuan scanned it with spiritual sense, and upon confirming there were no issues, he put them all into his storage bag.
“I would like to purchase some spiritual seeds from your Chamber. Could I trouble Cultivator Wen to introduce me to some?”
He spoke out. The Sea Tower Chamber of Commerce, as the second power in the Liyang Region, jointed with the Heavenly Star Cave, should have some good spiritual seeds stored.
“I wonder what Taoist friend’s requirements are?”
The two walked out of the elegant room, the female cultivator leading Lu Xuan to a spacious room. The room housed many shelves carrying various spiritual seeds, kept in different containers.
Some special spiritual seeds were even surrounded by simple restrictions to prevent the loss of vitality.
“The rank of the seeds should be no lower than fourth-grade, and the rarer the species, the better.”
“Like Brother Mu, I have a peculiar habit and like to collect and cultivate all sorts of strange spiritual plants.”
Lu Xuan smiled slightly.
He has been in the late stage of Foundation Establishment for quite a long time and is very close to the Foundation Establishment Perfect Realm. Ordinary third-grade spiritual plants are somewhat redundant for him now.
Cultivating plants across grades would have more abundant rewards, and naturally, cultivating lower grades would affect the grade of the rewards from the light orb, with the Spirit Firefly Grass being the perfect example.
Therefore, except for the Water Glow Grass in the spirit field which can be harvested for cultivation, the second and third-grade spiritual plants are generally ones for which he has mastered the method of seed condensation, which significantly lowers the cost, hence the mass cultivation.
In contrast, there’s a big difference in the rewards obtained from ordinary fourth-grade spiritual plants and rare fourth-grade ones. Lu Xuan doesn’t shy away from complex cultivation conditions; the only concern is not finding rare spiritual seeds.
“Rare spiritual seeds that are no lower than fourth-grade, we do have a few of those in this room.”
The female cultivator had a reminiscent look.
“However, they are all fourth-grade spiritual plants, fifth-grade spiritual seeds are quite rare.”
“Those kinds of seeds are generally born from heaven and earth, requiring a snatch from the creation of heaven and earth to breed, so they’ve always been rare.”
“However, the Sea Tower Chamber of Commerce should be able to find some, it depends on your offer, friend.”
“Those rare fifth-grade spiritual seeds are usually sold at auction events held by the Chamber of Commerce and rarely come out to the market.”
The female cultivator explained in detail.
“Then, could you please take me to see the fourth-grade rare spiritual seeds?”
Lu Xuan was eager to see.
