Sword Sovereign of the Celestial Emperor-Chapter 862 - 861: Cold Light Sword

"Alright, let's make the deal!"

Master Tu had a slight smile on his face. Selling off the Nine Nether Lamp and reshaping it, along with some precious materials, could forge three pieces of Lower Grade Imperial Artifacts.

If he sold those three Lower Grade Imperial Artifacts, he could probably earn a small profit, not much, as hiring an Emperor Level Artifact Refiner to reshape the Nine Nether Lamp would require a considerable expense.

"Here are 1.2 million Lower Grade Spirit Crystals, please count them!"

Master Tu took out a Storage Ring from his bosom and placed it in front of Chu Ming, smiling as he spoke.

Chu Ming picked up the Storage Ring, scanned it with his Spiritual Sense, and examined it thoroughly. It indeed contained 1.2 million Lower Grade Spirit Crystals, accurate without a doubt.

Leaving the round table, Chu Ming said to the red-robed attendant, "I want to buy an Emperor Level Treasure Sword, do you know where I can find one?"

"Please follow me, my lord!"

The red-robed attendant led the way, and shortly, Chu Ming arrived at the western side of the third floor. There, rows of weapons and battle armor were displayed, their brilliance flowing, with some weapons emitting an aura not inferior to the currently sealed Divine Brilliance Sword.

"Sir, this is where the weapons and battle armor are sold. Feel free to take your time to look around, and when you've made your decision, just call for me!"

The red-robed attendant respectfully said to Chu Ming before turning around to attend to other customers.

Chu Ming glanced around briefly. On the third floor of the Purple Gold Trading Company, there were about hundreds of customers, some so profound in their depths that even Chu Ming couldn't gauge them.

"These weapons and battle armor are really trashy. However, given your current circumstances, Chu Ming, you might have to settle for them!"

The Artifact Spirit of the Divine Brilliance Sword, Xiao Ai, spoke disdainfully to Chu Ming in his mind.

"Doesn't Shang Lan have quite a few weapons and battle armor in his possession?"

Chu Ming, recalling his first entry into the Primordial Tower and the sea of treasures he witnessed there, transmitted his voice slightly.

"That's right. When Master perished, most of the treasures remained in the Primordial Tower. Besides many Imperial Artifacts and Sacred Artifacts, there are even a few powerful Divine Artifacts!"

Listening to Chu Ming's inquiry, Xiao Ai replied softly.

"Phew!"

Chu Ming exhaled. Now, in his heart, he had already roughly planned his strategy within the cosmos: First, join the Nine Elements Dao Palace, then strive to enhance his own strength. Upon breaking into the Saint Dao Realm, he would return to the Celestial Martial Continent and head to the Primordial Tower to undergo the Fourth Layer and Fifth Layer trials.

Chu Ming's gaze fell on the rows of weapons and battle armor before him, noting that the price of Lower Grade Imperial Artifacts was indeed as Master Tu had said, ranging between 100,000 Lower Grade Spirit Crystals to 500,000 Lower Grade Spirit Crystals.

100,000 Lower Grade Spirit Crystals was the most ordinary Lower Grade Imperial Artifact, providing very limited enhancement to a martial artist's combat power. As for the ones worth 500,000 Lower Grade Spirit Crystals, they were the pinnacle of Lower Grade Imperial Artifacts, some even rivaling Low-level Middle Grade Artifacts.

Additionally, amongst these weapons and battle armor, Chu Ming also saw over a dozen Middle Grade Imperial Artifacts, though the price was several times that of Lower Grade Imperial Artifacts. Even the cheapest Middle Grade Imperial Artifact required 1.5 million Lower Grade Spirit Crystals, while the best one demanded 4 million Lower Grade Spirit Crystals.

"Looks like I can only buy a Lower Grade Imperial Treasure Sword!"

Chu Ming thought to himself. Though he now possessed 1.4 million Lower Grade Spirit Crystals, upon seeing these Middle Grade Imperial Artifacts priced in the millions of spirit crystals, he still felt quite impoverished.

"However, a Lower Grade Imperial Artifact should suffice for me right now!"

Chu Ming's cultivation was currently only at Emperor Dao First Layer, a Lower Grade Imperial Artifact would be adequate.

Chu Ming navigated through the rows of weapon racks, inspecting them carefully. He discovered that the sword-type weapons had the highest value, with most priced around 300,000 Lower Grade Spirit Crystals. Even the cheapest Treasure Sword was priced at 240,000 Lower Grade Spirit Crystals, and the most expensive reached 470,000 Lower Grade Spirit Crystals, nearly reaching the limit of a Lower Grade Imperial Artifact.

Besides, the axe-type weapons had the lowest value, mostly priced at tens of thousands of Lower Grade Spirit Crystals. Chu Ming thought this was probably because few in the cosmos used axes.

"Cyan Flame Sword, Lower Grade Imperial Artifact, crafted using Cyan Flame Stone, mixed with a bit of Purple Silver, can cut through hair; when swung, it emits a faint sound of cyan flame, killing enemies thousands of miles away! Priced at 370,000 Lower Grade Spirit Crystals!"

"Cold Light Sword, Lower Grade Imperial Artifact, forged from a block of thousand-year Cold Iron, its blade is bone-chillingly cold, not recommended for swordsmen without strong physiques; when facing an enemy, it can trigger the cold energy within the sword, freezing space. Priced at 470,000 Lower Grade Spirit Crystals!"

"Moonlight Sword, Lower Grade Imperial Artifact, one of Master Huangpu Yang's proud creations, when swung, it's like the radiant sunset, dazzling in brilliance, kills invisibly, claiming lives! Valued at 400,000 Lower Grade Spirit Crystals!"

"Celestial Wind Sword..."

Chu Ming's gaze swept over these Treasure Swords, silently contemplating their features. Having already condensed four Flowers of Slaughter Law, although the fourth flower was merely a Rootless Flower, undoubtedly choosing a sword with slaughter attributes would be immensely advantageous for him.

However, to his disappointment, he searched the entire third floor and did not find a single sword with slaughter properties.

"Looks like I'll have to choose the Cold Light Sword!"

In reality, these swords were all quite similar to Chu Ming, but you get what you pay for, and the Cold Light Sword was expensive for a reason.

"I want to buy a Cold Light Sword."

Chu Ming summoned the attendant and spoke to him indifferently. 𝓯𝙧𝙚𝒆𝙬𝙚𝒃𝙣𝙤𝒗𝓮𝓵.𝙘𝙤𝙢

"Please wait a moment, my lord. I'll go fetch the shopkeeper of the third floor!"

The attendant did not dare to hesitate, apologizing to Chu Ming before heading to a corner in the northwest side of the third floor. There, stood a wooden cabin, presenting a stark contrast to the ancient charm of the third floor.

Soon, a young woman stepped out of the cabin. She appeared to be in her twenties, with eyes as deep as water, seemingly capable of seeing through everything. She wore a long cyan dress, resembling a fairy from a painting.

Behind her was the attendant who had just left.

"Is she the shopkeeper of the third floor?"

Chu Ming's face showed a hint of surprise. Having broken into the Emperor Realm, his Soul Power reached around Emperor Dao Eighth Layer, yet in his eyes, the woman still appeared shrouded in a layer of white mist, completely indistinct.

"Her cultivation has reached Emperor Dao Eighth Layer, one layer stronger than Master Tu!"

In his mind, Xiao Ai remarked calmly.
