Furthermore, Jia Mu Zhenren possesses a cultivation level as high as the Golden Core Middle Stage and is also a Body Cultivator, making him exceptionally powerful.

With the combined efforts of him and Jia Mu Zhenren, it was indeed feasible to kill a Demon Beast at the first or second level of the Golden Core stage.

Most importantly, he had already joined forces with Jia Mu Zhenren once, and after that collaboration to kill a powerful enemy, they got along very well. Jia Mu Zhenren was a trustworthy person.

Of course, Ling Pengyun's own strength is not weak either. His Divine Sense and spiritual power are comparable to Golden Core Third Layer expert, and the power of his Lifebound Magic Treasure Azure Sea Heavy Yuan Treasure Pearl, is also comparable to Third Rank Low Grade Law Treasure.

With the addition of the Burning Yuan Lamp, which Magic Treasure Prototype, Ling Pengyun currently has no problem fighting against a Golden Core Third Layer cultivator.

If Ling Pengyun hadn't possessed such strength, Jia Mu Zhenren wouldn't have sought Ling Pengyun out to hunt Demon Beast together.

As for the Second Rank High Grade Ghost Control Long Banner in Ling Pengyun's hand, its grade is still somewhat low. It will only be of some use to Ling Pengyun, who has already reached the Golden Core realm, once its grade is restored to the level of Magic Treasure Prototype.

"It's possible to kill Golden Core Demon Beast together, but I won't stay in Wood Origin Marketplace for long. If you find a suitable target, Jia Wood Jiamu, just let me know."

After responding with a smile, Ling Pengyun spoke again.

"However, I have come to Wood Origin Marketplace to seek out Jia Wood Jiamu because I have an important request to make. I wonder if you could obtain any ordinary Golden Core Spirit Object?"

"If it's feasible, I'm willing to buy it at a price 50,000 yuan higher than the market price."

"However, this matter needs to be kept safe; it's best if no one knows about it."

The matter of seeking the Golden Core Spirit Object was discussed many times by the Spirit Talisman Old Ancestor with Ling Pengyun during the Golden Core Ceremony.

In addition, finding the Golden Core Spirit Object for the Spirit Talisman Old Ancestor will also yield a substantial amount of spiritual rewards.

Ling Pengyun naturally took this matter to heart.

Ling Pengyun's bid was the price he agreed upon after several detailed discussions with the Spirit Talisman Old Ancestor during the Golden Core Ceremony.

After all, what the Spirit Talisman Old Ancestor wanted was safety.

If he really wanted to get a bargain, he would have come alone to this resource-rich, Boundless Sea Region to purchase items during the various market auctions long ago.

If you want security, you will naturally have to pay a higher price.

Upon hearing this, Jia Mu Zhenren's eyes trembled.

A typical Golden Core Spirit Object typically fetches between 250,000 and 300,000 Spirit Stone Spirit Stone, with 300,000 Spirit Stone being the safest price.

The price is 50,000 Spirit Stone higher than the market price, which is 350,000 Spirit Stone.

Such an expense, just to buy a common type of Golden Core Spirit Object, is already considered an extremely high price.

Jia Mu Zhenren was indeed moved by such a high price. After all, even ten thousand Spirit Stone was a considerable sum for a Golden Core cultivator.

Moreover, it's 50,000 Spirit Stone.

Jia Mu Zhenren is Body Cultivator, and what he lacks most is Cultivation Resources.

"If this succeeds, I can earn 50,000 Spirit Stone directly. This is safer and more profitable than hunting Golden Core Demon Beast."

A thought struck Jia Mu Zhenren.

However, he did not agree to the matter, but instead asked a question in return.

"Ling Daoyou, is this true? And can you really produce that many Spirit Stone? This is no laughing matter."

Ling Pengyun solemnly said, "This matter is indeed true. I certainly cannot produce Spirit Stone now, but as long as you have Golden Core Spirit Object, I can provide them. I have sworn an oath regarding this matter based on my cultivation."

After saying that, he began to make a vow regarding his cultivation level.

Seeing Ling Pengyun's sincerity, Jia Mu Zhenren Jiamu was certain that the matter was true.

At the same time, he became even more certain that Ling Pengyun's identity was definitely not as simple as it appeared on the surface.

Six months ago, during the battle where he and Ling Pengyun joined forces to kill that old Old Devil in the Pseudo-Core Realm, he guessed from Ling Pengyun's top-grade Higher Vehicle Lifebound Magic Item that the Cultivation Method Ling Pengyun practiced could at least reach the Nascent Soul Realm.

Those who possess such Cultivation Method are all people of extraordinary status, or have powerful forces or strong individuals behind them.

At least that powerful force was comparable to his sect Wood Origin Immortal Sect; otherwise, the natal Lifebound Magic Item attached to Ling Pengyun's cultivation Cultivation Method wouldn't be so strong.

Of course, he had also investigated Ling Pengyun's identity over the past six months and knew that he came from a Foundation Establishment Family.

How could Foundation Establishment Family possibly possess such a powerful Cultivation Method?

If it were someone else, they might have obtained that powerful Cultivation Method through a fortuitous encounter, but Jia Mu Zhenren didn't believe it when it came to Ling Pengyun, who had broken through to the Golden Core realm at just over seventy years old.

According to his guess, Ling Pengyun, whose Spirit Root was somewhat inferior but whose comprehension was recognized as extraordinary, was probably valued by that master, which is why he was bestowed with that Higher Vehicle Cultivation Method.

After all, even within the Nascent Soul Great Sect like the Wood Origin Immortal Sect, it is quite rare for someone to break through to the Golden Core at the age of seventy.

He was at least over a hundred years old when he broke through to the Golden Core realm.

As for plotting to steal Ling Pengyun's valuables, judging from Jia Mu Zhenren's current situation, the risk is extremely high.

Rather than doing that, it's more stable to earn a brokerage fee from selling Golden Core Spirit Object.

Although he lacked resources, he had only lived half his lifespan and still had two or three hundred years left to enjoy. He didn't want to fight a younger one only to have an older one appear, leading to his untimely death.

Of course, he has powerful backers, but if he were to actively covet Ling Pengyun's wealth and bring trouble upon himself, his backers would probably have no reason to help him.

After all, this is something only Evil Cultivator would do.

"To be honest, I can actually get my hands on Golden Core Spirit Object. Since I entered the Golden Core stage, I have been qualified to exchange for ordinary Golden Core Spirit Object in my sect once."

"I have never taken on any disciples, so I have always retained my qualification to exchange for Golden Core Spirit Object."

"In five years, our sect's Fourth Rank sect-protecting spirit Wood Origin Spirit Tree, will be able to produce several 300-year-old ordinary Golden Core Spirit Object, the Wood Origin Spirit Fruit."

"If Ling Daoyou still intends to buy Wood Origin Spirit Fruit from me five years from now, I can get it for you," Jia Mu Zhenren said with a smile.

"Thank you very much, fellow Daoist." Ling Pengyun nodded with delight upon hearing this.

"It's nothing, it's nothing. How about we talk about hunting Golden Core Demon Beast? I already have a target in mind, but the Alchemist co-manages the market with me is too old and doesn't like fighting anymore. I'm not confident that I can kill that target on my own, so I've had to keep putting it off."

"Now that I have Ling Daoyou's help, I am quite confident in slaying that Golden Core Demon Beast," Jia Mu Zhenren said with a smile, waving his hand before asking.

"Since that's the case, fellow Daoist, please tell me about the target's situation," Ling Pengyun said, intrigued.

"Millions of miles away from the market town, there is a deep trench thousands of feet deep, inhabited by thousands of Red Armor Crab, the king of which is a Red Armor Crab King at the second level of the Golden Core Realm."

"Although that Red Armor Crab king's cultivation level is not high, its red armor is extremely sturdy, making it the best at physical combat. Even if I were to fight it one-on-one, I could only suppress it at most."

"In addition, among the thousands of offspring under this Crab Demon King, there are three crabs at the Pseudo-Core Realm, and the rest are all at the Qi Refining Realm and Foundation Establishment Realm."

"This group of demons is quite troublesome. If Ling Daoyou is willing to take action, I can dispatch three hundred Qi Refining cultivators and fifty Foundation Establishment Realm cultivators from the market to travel with us on a Third Rank Low Grade medium-sized Furious Wrathful Whale Flying Boat that my sect left behind in the Wood Origin Marketplace. This Flying Whale Flying Boat is equipped with a Third Rank Array Formation."

"In this way, those Qi Refining and Foundation Establishment Cultivator can also help us defend against those Foundation Establishment Realm and Qi Training Stage Red Armor Crab Demon."

"We can also focus on dealing with that Red Armor Crab Demon King, who is at the Golden Core Second Layer."

Ling Pengyun's brows twitched slightly when he heard that the Red Armor Crab Demon horde was so large, numbering in the thousands.

It should be noted that the area where those Red Armor Crab Demon were located was in the Wood Origin Sea Region, which was under the rule of the Wood Origin Immortal Sect and belonged to the human race.

Although the Boundless Sea Region Cultivation World sea is vast and interconnected, Demon Beast often enter human territory by following the seawater.

But the Red Armor Crab Demon ' clan was far too large, which was somewhat unusual.

"The place where those Red Armor Crab Demon are located is only a million miles away from here. In this vast sea area, that place is relatively close to this Wood Origin Marketplace."

"Could it be that the group of Red Armor Crab Demon that Jia Wood Jiamu is trying to annihilate was arranged by his sect?"

With this in mind, Ling Pengyun immediately made up his mind.

After all, who would want a huge herd of Demon Beast in their own territory?

Once his thoughts returned to normal, Ling Pengyun asked the crucial question.

How are the profits divided afterward?

Jia Mu Zhenren said with a smile.

"After the deed is done, the most precious demon core on that Golden Core Second Layer Red Armor Crab King will be mine, and the less valuable body will be yours. As compensation, the bodies and inner cores of the three Pseudo-Core Realm in the crab demon horde will also be yours."

"As for the remaining Qi Training Stage crab demons, 70% of them will go to the Qi Training Stage Foundation Establishment Cultivator of our sect who participated in the battle, and the remaining 30% will be divided equally among us."

"I wonder if this is a good idea?"

Jia Mu Zhenren explained in detail.

"Let's do as you say, fellow Daoist. I wonder when you plan to set off?" Ling Pengyun was quite satisfied with Jia Mu Zhenren's plan to divide the interests.

While the Golden Core of Demon Beast offer numerous benefits to cultivators, and can even be used to refine fake cores and achieve the realm of a fake Demon Beast Golden Core, the golden cores of demonic beasts can be used to refine Pseudo-Core True Person.

The Ling Clan currently has no Foundation Establishment Completion, so obtaining Demon Beast Golden Core would be of no use for the time being. In fact, keeping Demon Beast Golden Core for too long would deplete their essence.

Moreover, to achieve the Pseudo-Core Realm, one needs at least one ordinary Golden Core Spirit Object to make success easier; otherwise, there is a high probability of failure.

While the Red Armor Crab King's sturdy body was worth tens of thousands of Spirit Stone less than its Golden Core, it was still worth around twenty thousand Spirit Stone.

Ling Pengyun happened to be Artifact Refiner, so he valued the Red Armor Crab King's sturdy body quite a bit.

He could also rely on the body of the Red Armor Crab King to try to forge a Magic Treasure Prototype Law Treasure at the prototype level.

In addition, there was a complete corpse of the Pseudo-Core Realm crab demon, with three heads totaling 15,000 Spirit Stone, as compensation.

In terms of the value of the Demon Beast alone, Ling Pengyun still made a profit.

The corpse of a Golden Core Demon King is worth about 20,000 Spirit Stone, and the complete corpses of three Pseudo-Core Realm Demon Beast are worth about 15,000 Spirit Stone. Adding the two together, the profit becomes 35,000 Spirit Stone.

However, the Golden Core Demon Beast that Jia Mu Zhenren possessed was only worth about 30,000 Spirit Stone.

However, Jia Mu Zhenren was not stupid; he had his reasons for wanting that Demon Beast Golden Core core.

He was a third-tier Alchemist, and afterwards he could have used that Golden Core stage crab king's inner core to refine expensive third-tier pills.

It can only be said that each party has its own needs.
