Chapter 15 Bronze Tier 4, Selling Card Crafting MaterialsHowever, he could go find that person. Gu Ye suddenly remembered the person who had told him about the gui blood crystal. The day before the Card Domain Trial, he had been wandering around the card-making materials market, seeing if he could pick up a bargain.

He had learned about the gui blood crystal from a vendor; the gui blood crystal was an extremely rare pseudo-heavenly treasure.

However, it wasn’t used on Card Masters, but on cards. It could increase the star level of any card without any side effects. Although it was only half a star, it was still extremely precious.

For a Card Master, an increase in their cards’ star levels meant a reduction in spiritual energy consumption, more room in their natal card’s capacity, and a corresponding increase in the number of cards the Card Master could use.

Moreover, there were other benefits, such as an increase in the card’s power. One could only imagine how significant an increase in card star levels was for boosting a Card Master’s combat prowess.

With a plan in mind, Gu Ye decided to go find that person tomorrow to see if it would work. Furthermore, when that person told Gu Ye about the gui blood crystal, it was with the condition that Gu Ye would provide the gui blood crystal as payment once he obtained it; the two had even signed a ”Demon Contract” for this.

A ”Demon Contract” was a type of card born from the vows binding two Card Masters. When one Card Master broke the vow, the other Card Master could obtain all of their cards.

Furthermore, the oath-breaking Card Master’s natal card would shatter, their soul would be devoured by the Heavenly Dao, and their physical body would dissolve and return to nature. Thus, the ”Demon Contract” was also known as the ”Heavenly Dao Contract.”

Gu Ye took out those forty Breath of Spiritual Energy cards and picked out the ones he needed from the pile of cards before starting the next order of business.

He sat cross-legged on the bed, picked up a Breath of Spiritual Energy, injected spiritual energy into it, and then consumed and refined it. Repeating this process, all forty Breath of Spiritual Energy cards were fully refined within three hours, and his cultivation level rose to Bronze Rank 4, with progress reaching 70%.

”Awesome!” Gu Ye couldn’t suppress his joy. This method of constantly increasing his cultivation level without any side effects was truly addictive.

He calmed his mood, put away the cards, got out of bed, and sat in a chair to start the next task. He took out the armor drawing he had made last time from the drawer and continued to detail it. He worked for several hours, but fortunately, it was Saturday tomorrow, so he could sleep until he woke up naturally.

A night without dreams...

Gu Ye arrived at a famous attraction in Yunlin City—the card-making materials market. What met his eyes were various stalls and shouting vendors one after another.

”Freshly baked Thorn-faced Dragon dung, hot dragon dung...”

”A remnant card-making sequence from a thousand years ago. As long as you can deduce it, you can become rich overnight!”

The market was crowded every day. Many people wanted to pan for gold in the filth to get rich overnight, but the probability of actually finding gold was shockingly low.

Gu Ye ignored the various vendors’ sales pitches. When he came, he had used a one-time disguise card. Relying on the deceitful map, he barely managed to find a shop selling card-making materials. The name was quite abstract, called ”There’s a Shop Here.”

The vendor from last time had told Gu Ye to find him at this address. The shop door was tightly closed, so Gu Ye tapped on the door three long times and one short time, following the vendor’s instructions.

Before long, the door was opened a crack, and a small head poked out from inside. She wore her hair in two small buns and had a face full of baby fat. Gu Ye estimated she was a little girl of seven or eight years old.

The little girl looked at Gu Ye curiously and asked, ”Who are you looking for?”

”Yang Fu!” Gu Ye stated the vendor’s name. Upon hearing it, the little girl turned her head and shouted:

”Dad, someone’s looking for you!” Seeing that there was no reply from inside for a long time, the little girl helplessly let Gu Ye enter the shop first. She opened the door a little wider, just enough for Gu Ye to enter, and gestured for him to come in.

Gu Ye walked into the shop. The little girl continued to poke her head out, looking around vigilantly, as if confirming something before pulling her head back in.

The little girl led Gu Ye into the shop. Upon entering, Gu Ye observed the situation inside; it could only be described as a very normal shop selling card-making materials. Many unknown cards were displayed in the counter. Just then, a hurried voice came:

”Go, go, initiate the team fight, initiate the team fight.”

”The Baron is about to be stolen.”

”Damn it!”

”Bang!” A sound of a fist slamming onto the table rang out.

Gu Ye turned his head to look. A man was sitting on a chair in front of the counter, wearing a pair of sci-fi glasses, his mouth occasionally spewing curses greeting family members and ancestors eighteen generations back. The man was none other than the vendor he had met last time, Yang Fu.

From Gu Ye’s perspective, the screen displayed on the glasses showed that Yang Fu was playing the currently popular ”card Battle Alliance.”

”Dad, someone is looking for you, it’s not that group of people.”

The little girl stepped forward and took off Yang Fu’s glasses.

”Who?”

Yang Fu was a bit annoyed at having his glasses taken off, but seeing Gu Ye standing in front of him, he immediately demonstrated what a ”change of face” meant. Gu Ye was still using the same disguised face, and Yang Fu recognized him at a glance.

”Brother, you finally came.” Yang Fu’s face beamed with a smile.

”Sit down quickly!” Yang Fu’s daughter brought over a chair.

”This is my daughter, Yang Tongrui.” Yang Tongrui walked to the side, put on the glasses, and continued the battle for Yang Fu.

”Li Feiyu.”

After Gu Ye sat down, he took a card out of his pocket and handed it to him. Yang Fu excitedly took the card with both hands.

After checking it, it was indeed the gui blood crystal he wanted:

”Brother Li, thank you!”

Yang Fu stood up and bowed to Gu Ye. Gu Ye quickly dodged and stood to the side, speaking:

”This was what we agreed upon.”

”It’s just an equivalent exchange.”

Yang Fu said gratefully, ”Although we signed a contract, I am still very grateful to you.”

After speaking, Yang Fu took a card from the counter in front and handed it to Gu Ye. Gu Ye didn’t reach out to take it, looking at him with confusion.

”This is a thank-you gift for you.”

”Not needed.” Gu Ye didn’t want to take it, but before he could react, Yang Fu had already placed the card in his hand.

”Accept it. I only gave you a piece of information. I know it wasn’t easy for you to get the gui blood crystal, and the gui blood crystal is too important to me.”

Unable to refuse the kindness, Gu Ye had no choice but to accept it. Next, it was time to talk about business.

”Shopkeeper, do you buy card-making materials?”

”I do.” Yang Fu replied affirmatively. He carefully put away the gui blood crystal card and turned to look at Gu Ye:

”I buy all types of card-making materials.”

Hearing him say this, Gu Ye did not hesitate and took out ten cards and handed them over. Yang Fu took them, checked the grade of the cards, and quickly gave an offer:

”White card-making materials for 20,000, green card-making materials for 180,000.”

Hearing his quote, Gu Ye was a bit surprised because his quote was basically the highest price for each type of card-making material.

Gu Ye shook his head at him: ”You don’t need to do this. The price should be what it is.”

Gu Ye reached out to take the cards and leave. After all, he wasn’t someone who liked to take advantage of others, and if he agreed to Yang Fu’s quote, he would really owe a favor.

Seeing that he was about to leave, Yang Fu quickly pressed down on the cards and smiled sheepishly: ”Alright then.”

Yang Fu had no choice but to re-quote. After hearing the price, Gu Ye nodded in agreement.

Gu Ye looked at Yang Fu, sensing with his spiritual perception that he was also a Bronze-rank Card Master, so he took out all the cards and placed them on the counter.

Seeing so many card-making materials, Yang Fu’s pupils shrank suddenly. As someone who specialized in selling card-making materials, he not only had an extreme understanding of customer psychology but also possessed a sharp, discerning eye.

Placed at the top of the pile of cards was impressively a Blue-grade card-making material. This was very rarely seen in the Yunlin City card-making materials market. Every time a Blue-grade card-making material appeared, it was basically sold by some influential person. He knew that this time might be a huge transaction.
