Global Lords: Me and My Calabash Kiddos

”Wealthiest in the World, thank you for helping me look for my family at the personal auction last time,” Mo Chuchen began with thanks right away.

”It was nothing, not worth mentioning,” Yi Tian also remembered who Mo Chuchen was.

To bring two Element Cores as a gift upon meeting—turns out he’s a Level 8 powerhouse!

”I happen to have a Venerable Treasure Chest. But I don’t think your Quasi-Demonic Artifact is equal in value to the Venerable Treasure Chest. Judging from what comes out of King’s Treasure Chests, a Venerable Treasure Chest could definitely yield something unimaginable.” Mo Chuchen was straightforward this time.

As a veteran with an Eighth-Level Territory, Mo Chuchen had his own considerations and was not as forthright as he appeared when interacting with Yi Tian.

”If you give me something like a Yin Yang Sacred Fruit, I’ll pay ten times the price for it. Because I need it, to me it’s priceless.” Yi Tian hinted with a deeper meaning.

The same item can be a treasure to one, and just dead grass to another.

”They say no Lord can get the better of Wealthiest in the World, and now I believe it. I entered the Celestial Dao World with nothing but myself, and the only thing I have that can attract you is the Venerable Treasure Chest.” Mo Chuchen acknowledged the deal with Yi Tian.

Judging from what other levels of treasure chests produce, the Venerable Treasure Chest can only contain SS-level Divine Weapons.

”Demon Refining Mirror or Spirit Demon Bead?” Yi Tian asked Mo Chuchen, giving the customer the right of first refusal.

”Spirit Demon Bead is a treasure too, but on a Lord’s turf, it’s really not worth a Venerable Treasure Chest. I’ll take the Demon Refining Mirror.”

When making his choice, Mo Chuchen also gave Yi Tian a reminder.

The meaning was clear—Demon Cultivators would never exchange a Venerable Treasure Chest for the Spirit Demon Bead.

The Spirit Demon Bead can control demons, open pathways, and advance demon cultivation, all still within the Celestial Dao Rules.

It’s a great treasure, just hard to fully make use of!

Demon Cultivators can only use it as a weapon—take the Spirit Demon Bead and bash people with it.

That way, the Quasi-Demonic Artifact’s value is weakened a lot.

The Demon Refining Mirror is different.

Leaving aside other functions—it triples cultivation speed, refines magic power, and heals Heart Demon wounds.

All of these are exactly what Demon Cultivators crave most.

Magic power is domineering—above S-level, Demon Cultivators are prone to attracting Heart Demons.

The wounds from Heart Demons greatly affect the path forward.

With this Demon Refining Mirror, Mo Chuchen could significantly speed up his transformation into a true demon.

In terms of the value of Divine Artifacts and Demonic Artifacts, support-type Divine Artifacts are often more valuable than defensive or offensive Divine Artifacts or Demonic Artifacts.

”The Spirit Demon Bead is easy to sell! Go ahead and draft up the trade!” Yi Tian replied casually.

After all, he wouldn’t trade the Spirit Demon Bead for a King’s Treasure Chest—that would be too demeaning.

If nothing else, he could just sell the Spirit Demon Bead to Bright Island!

”[Venerable Treasure Chest*1] traded for [Demon Refining Mirror*1].”

After Mo Chuchen sent the trade offer, Yi Tian immediately accepted.

On the second floor of Wealth Tower, with a flash of white light, the Demon Refining Mirror vanished from the display stand.

This signified a successful trade!

If a Lord had retrieved it, the second floor would temporarily close. That sort of phenomenon wouldn’t occur.

Countless Lords who had been watching the Quasi-Demonic Artifact were stunned.

Did Wealthiest in the World just get a Venerable Treasure Chest that quickly?

Many Demon Cultivators gritted their teeth. Damn, the Demon Refining Mirror they had their eyes on, the most valuable Demon Refining Mirror—

Wealthiest in the World, I will never forgive you!

And there was another Demon Cultivator who hated Wealthiest in the World even more. He and Mo Chuchen both had Eighth-Level Territories. On the Celestial Demon Continent, they’d always been rivals, neck and neck.

He didn’t even have to think—he knew Mo Chuchen had acquired the Demon Refining Mirror.

Mo Chuchen’s strength would now surpass his by a great margin.

Upon acquiring the Venerable Treasure Chest, he opened it immediately. He wasn’t even eligible to chat with Wealthiest in the World—requesting a chat was ignored by Wealthiest in the World.

”Pleasure doing business!”

After getting the Venerable Treasure Chest, Yi Tian and Mo Chuchen wrapped up their conversation.

Both were eager to study their new treasures and had no interest in further small talk.

”Open the Venerable Treasure Chest!”

Yi Tian opened the Venerable Treasure Chest right then and there.

”Stone of Ultimate Venerability*5, Celestial Dao Coin*5 million, Bloodline Summoning Gate*1, Intermediate City Building Order Design Map*1, Super Castle Design Map*1, SSS Spirit Herb Ten-thousand-year-old Golden Ginseng*3, Elemental Arcana Study Scroll*1, SS-level Pill Dragon Tendon Tiger Bone Pill*10, S-level Pill Celestial Leopard Blood-Rush Pill*100, Top-level Fog Scroll*5, Five Elements Core*3.”

Looking at this haul, Yi Tian didn’t know what to say.

Stone of Ultimate Venerability +5.

Celestial Dao Coin +5 million.

The Bloodline Summoning Gate was likely the guaranteed item from a Venerable Treasure Chest.

The meaning of being a Lord—

At this moment, it was made perfectly clear.

Intermediate City Building Order Design Map—he could store that for later use. Yi Tian wasn’t interested in more cities for now; a Basic-level City was already enough.

Still, getting it was a nice surprise!

Super Castle Design Map—eighteen stories in total, massive in scale; purely based on rooms, it rivaled a royal palace.

Even more imposing in terms of grandeur. This could be sold for a hefty sum.

SSS-level Ten-thousand-year-old Blood Ginseng—its effects weren’t much different from Thousand-Colored Cloud Flower; a single ginseng tendril could bring someone back from the dead.

Already ripe for use, too bad there were only three. For Thousand-Colored Cloud Flower, he had five stalks.

He’d replant two of them, and give one to Gu Qianqiu to use for healing his territory members.

Elemental Arcana Study Scroll—now he had three of them!

SS-level Pill Dragon Tendon Tiger Bone Pill—consuming it increases Strength by 50, Constitution by 50, and Agility by 50.

Effect-wise, it’s not as good as the Wind God Pill from last time.

Celestial Dao Stone’s description: this is a potent drug, only one can be taken; taking more causes the body to explode and death.

Yi Tian knew some pills could be consumed multiple times.

Still, ten SS-level pills—not bad at all.

Big Child and Third Child could each take one as well.

The rest could be given as rewards to his subordinates.

The other kiddos were focused on Spiritual Power, not close combat.

Might as well use them for maximum value.

S-level Pill Celestial Leopard Blood-Rushing Pill—even from the name you could tell it was a powerful pill, and could only be taken once.
