I Have A Cultivation World

Chapter 1981: Chapter 961_3

Although Chen Mobai’s words were not explicitly stated, Zhou Ye understood immediately and nodded.

“With the great war approaching, the prices of various magic artifacts, talismans, and elixirs are bound to skyrocket. Let’s take advantage of this Beidou Conference and have the disciples below spare no Spirit Stones for a good purchase.”

Chen Mobai said this to Mo Douguang and Zhou Ye again. After they went out, besides E Yun and others, even the two Nascent Souls went shopping.

Chen Mobai himself equipped with top-notch magic artifacts, only those of the fifth rank could catch his eye, but Mo Douguang and Zhou Ye were not as wealthy.

Both of them had just achieved Nascent Soul Formation not long ago, and even fourth-rank magic artifacts were scarce to them.

Before the Beidou Conference began, many Nascent Soul cultivators organized some private trade fairs. Although the Five Elements Sect had no connections, its reputation was well-known, and the Star Heaven Dao Sect even proactively offered introductions.

Chen Mobai was too lazy to go, so he gave the invitations to Mo Douguang and Zhou Ye.

Upon returning, the two had rather serious expressions.

Upon inquiry, it was learned that the prices of items at the trade fair were more than twice as expensive as the market prices in the East Land.

“Some people left directly after exchanging for what they needed without participating in the Beidou Conference. Brother Mo traded for a Sword Cultivator technique from a major sect of the West Continent. I traded for a set of Sunfire Liquid and Spirit Ice Profound Liquid at the trade fair, hoping Green Pearl can successfully form her Core Formation.”

Zhou Ye lamented, having thought of himself as quite well-off, but realizing he was the poorest at the trade fair.

Fortunately, what he wanted to exchange was merely a Golden Elixir Spiritual Medicine, something Nascent Soul cultivators, especially alchemists of the Dao Morale Sect, could produce with ease.

“By the way, Sect Leader Junior Brother, we asked around about the Blazing Heaven Crystal and the Nine Yang True Fire Stone you wanted, but no one possessed these Spirit Materials at the trade fair. It’s possible they just weren’t present in the circle we attended. There’s another fair the day after tomorrow; we will check again.”

Although Chen Mobai did not attend, he still asked Mo Douguang to keep an eye out for what he needed.

“Thank you, both senior brothers.”

The time soon arrived for the day of the Beidou Conference.

Despite the primitive means of transaction, Chen Mobai and Qing Nu thoroughly enjoyed their browsing, especially Qing Nu, who saw many precious herbs that were not available in the Eastern Wilderness.

With a large amount of Spirit Stones on her, she placed bids on everything she fancied.

Zhuo Ming, also roaming the Earth Attribute district of Stone City, found the cultivation technique following Ninefold Law Body, the highest-level item discovered. After placing her bid, she waited anxiously for a response.

Mo Douguang bid on all sword cultivator techniques related to the Metal Attribute.

Most who attended the Beidou Conference were Nascent Souls and Core Formations, so the techniques available were at least capable of cultivating to Perfect Core Formation, with a few enabling Nascent Soul Formation. Only a scant few could be cultivated to the Great Perfection of Yuan Infant.

Chen Mobai selected ten Five Elements Cultivation Techniques capable of cultivating to the Nascent Soul Realm, precisely two for each element, intending to expand the Five Elements Sect’s library.

The prices, however, were genuinely steep. The starting bid for Nascent Soul Cultivation Methods was a thousand Superior Grade Spirit Stones.

Those capable of cultivating to Great Perfection of Yuan Infant demanded ten thousand Superior Grade Spirit Stones.

The ones Chen Mobai chose were all the least expensive, priced at a thousand Superior Grade Spirit Stones per book.

Zhuo Ming’s Ninefold Law Body, capable of cultivating to Nascent Soul Middle Stage, started at three thousand Superior Grade Spirit Stones. She had just saved up that amount over the years, and upon learning of this, Chen Mobai supported his treasured disciple with an additional two thousand Superior Grade Spirit Stones.

This kind of resource might be earned again, but missing out on a cultivation technique means not knowing when the next opportunity will arise.

Just with these cultivation techniques, Chen Mobai nearly exhausted all his Spirit Stones.

Not only him, but Mo Douguang as well; the Metal Attribute, being of the sword cultivator type, peaked at the Beidou Conference with a technique that could be cultivated to the Nascent Soul Late Stage, reportedly originating from the Eastern Emperor Court, called “Imperial Extreme Sword Path,” initially able to reach the Spirit Transformation Stage.

Mo Douguang lacked the Spirit Stones and sought Chen Mobai for help.

Chen Mobai assisted Mo Douguang by advancing a hundred years of sect salary, overdrawing ten thousand Superior Grade Spirit Stones.

Upon learning of this, Zhou Ye also sought such an arrangement, as he fancied a Fourth Rank Middle Grade defensive magic artifact but lacked the Spirit Stones.

“Senior Brother Zhou, what kind of defensive magic artifact do you desire? Provide me a list of materials, and I’ll refine it personally for you.”

Chen Mobai felt this expenditure should remain in-house. For something as minor as a Fourth Rank weapon, he could easily refine it using Stat Fire, even with his eyes closed.

“Thank you, Sect Leader Junior Brother!”

Upon hearing this, Zhou Ye beamed with delight.

Previously, when he and Mo Douguang attended a trade fair together, the latter mentioned that after his Nascent Soul Formation, his life-bound Longevity Sword had been refined by Chen Mobai into a Fourth Rank Superior Grade sword artifact.

Zhou Ye wondered why such a refinement had not been extended to him upon his own Nascent Soul Formation—was there favoritism? Thus, he subtly reminded Chen Mobai today of this disparity.

It turns out the Sect Leader Junior Brother was fair and impartial, evidently just too busy to remember before.

In the Tianhe Realm, the price of defensive magic artifacts far exceeded that of offensive and functional ones. Knowing that Chen Mobai would personally help him refine it, Zhou Ye promptly articulated his long-considered requirements.
