Two Hundred Eighty-Four Thousand Seven Hundred!

"Big brother, come with me."

Lu Qingyu closed the shop and, acting mysteriously, led Lu Qingfeng to the third floor of the attic.

Then he took out a Storage Bag, handed it to Lu Qingfeng, and looked smug, as if he was waiting for praise.

Lu Qingfeng took the Storage Bag and saw that it was full, probably containing three to five hundred jade pots. Lu Qingfeng reached out and took out a jade pot, opened the mouth of the pot, and a rich fragrance wafted out, as mellow and intoxicating as a fine aged wine.

"Bluegold Pure Essence?"

Lu Qingfeng looked at Lu Qingyu.

Lu Qingyu's smugness only grew stronger. "Yes, it's Bluegold Pure Essence. There are 390 jugs in total, with 365 drops of Bluegold Pure Essence in each jug. There should have been 412 jugs. But to fool those people in Gathering Immortals Market, I drank 22 jugs in front of them."

"Three hundred and ninety pots."

"142,350 drops of Blue Gold Alcohol Liquid".

Lu Qingfeng gripped the Storage Bag, a look of surprise on his face.

Seeing her elder brother's delight, Lu Qingyu smiled smugly, "They all thought I was a real spendthrift, squandering my elder brother's Spirit Stone without a care in the world. Little did they know that this Bluegold Pure Essence is a real treasure."

"Good."

"Good."

Lu Qingfeng nodded in praise.

Lu Qingyu's smile grew even brighter.

Bluegold Pure Essence is indeed a wonderful product.

Lu Qingfeng was unaware of the entire Three Mountains and Nine Rivers region, but based on what Yan Pingshu and Lu Qingyu had learned, the Bluegold Tree had only recently been discovered, at least within the Mystic Origin Realm.

In the vast Mystic Origin Realm, only the Illusory Wave Sea has Bluegold Tree growing, and it is located in the deep sea abyss. Foundation Establishment cultivators can go down there to collect the Bluegold Pure Essence flowing from the Bluegold Tree.

As for the Mystic Origin Realm, there has been no trace of Bluegold Tree or Bluegold Pure Essence, which seem to be unique products of the Mystic Origin Realm.

According to Yan Pingshu, the Bluegold Tree of the Illusory Wave Sea was only discovered a few thousand years ago. While it's said to be unique to the Mystic Origin Realm, it's actually inferior to the Frostspirit Clam, Cold-Lantern Fish, and Ice-Flesh Fish of the Frostwater Marshes.

The latter three kinds of spiritual creatures have delicious flesh and contain Spiritual Qi.

For ordinary cultivators, in addition to enjoying the pleasures of food, it can also improve their cultivation to some extent.

For cultivators practicing frost-attribute Cultivation Method, it is even more beneficial to their cultivation.

But Bluegold Pure Essence is purely a product of enjoyment.

It tastes better than many fine wines, which is why it's so expensive, but it offers no benefit to cultivation, only a slight improvement in eyesight. Only cultivators with abundant Spirit Stone and a particular fondness for fine wines are willing to buy it.

In addition, cultivators and sects interested in the Bluegold Tree and Bluegold Pure Essence will purchase some for research, hoping to discover other uses for the Bluegold Pure Essence and develop more value from the Bluegold Tree and Bluegold Pure Essence.

But after thousands of years, nothing has been gained.

It is still being sold as a special kind of spiritual wine.

"A pot of Millennial Pure Essence is only sold for 150 Spirit Stone Fragments."

"Big brother was right after all."

"With the Grand Luo Insight, 'Peak Rain Mountain' can operate for three years without opening, but once it opens, it will feed us for three years. With this Bluegold Pure Essence, Brother, whether you are cultivating the Grand Luo Insight or other Spirit Eye Technique Method and Divine Ability, you will no longer need to search for Bluegold Pure Essence everywhere."

Lu Qingyu had been secretly enjoying the thrill of finding bargains for three years. Now that her older brother was back, she finally had someone to share it with. Her cheerful demeanor completely dispelled the intellectual air she had seen when Lu Qingfeng first returned.

However, Lu Qingfeng could understand.

[Spiritual Item: Pure Essence (Bluegold Pure Essence)]

[Quality: A Thousand Years]

[Note: Every two hundred years, the spiritual liquid flowing from the roots of the Spirit-Eye Trees (Bluegold Tree) can be mixed with Clearbright Spirit Water. It can enhance divine eyes, Spirit Eye- related Technique Method, and Divine Ability.]

Bluegold Tree.

In the Five Directions Realm and Chiyan Realm the Primordial World Era, it is known as the 'Spirit-Eye Trees'. The spiritual liquid flowing from it is called 'Pure Essence'.

The Spirit-Eye Trees wasn't called by this name when it was first discovered.

The flowing spiritual liquid was only enjoyed as akin to fine wine.

However, many years ago, some cultivator, after numerous experiments, inadvertently discovered that by using Pure Essence as the main ingredient, combined with seven other common spiritual liquids and thirteen other spiritual waters, 'Clearbright Spirit Water' could be prepared.

The quality of the Pure Essence varies depending on the age of the Spirit-Eye Trees, resulting in differences in the Clearbright Spirit Water produced. Different spirit liquids and spirit waters will also have different emphases in the final Clearbright Spirit Water.

Even the lowest quality Clearbright Spirit Water can increase the power of various Spirit Eye and magic eye Technique Method by 20%!

A magical Technique Method!

The fact that one can enhance their cultivation by 20% with the help of external objects makes the value of Clearbright Spirit Water self-evident. As a result, the value of the essential ingredient for preparing Clearbright Spirit Water — the Pure Essence —is also skyrocketing.

It has become a commodity with a high price but no market.

Lu Qingfeng had only heard of this material and the Clearbright Spirit Water, a Divine Ability item that could enhance the abilities of the Spirit Eye and Dharma Technique Method, in the Chiyan Realm.

Upon arriving in the Five Directions Realm, it was only after a hundred years in the Shattered Star Sea that I finally witnessed the Pure Essence and the Clearbright Spirit Water.

In the Shattered Star Sea, the Spirit-Eye Trees is controlled by major immortal sects. Its Pure Essence is extremely valuable and sold by the drop. A single drop of the lowest quality Millennial Pure Essence is worth approximately two Spirit Stones. A single drop of Millennial Pure Essence, combined with different spirit waters and liquids, can be used to create a Clearbright Spirit Water of varying properties.

A bottle of Clearbright Spirit Water, of ordinary quality and attributes, is worth ninety Spirit Stone. Including the Pure Essence, the total cost is no more than four Spirit Stones.

In just three years, Lu Qingyu amassed 142,350 drops of Pure Essence!

"It's been sent."

Lu Qingfeng and Qingyu exchanged a glance, and for a moment they also felt a tremendous surge of joy.

While the materials in "Primordial World" are mostly the same as those in the real world, there are still some differences in the details.

All materials, elixirs, and Law Artifact are essentially the same.

Lu Qingfeng had previously dealt mostly with common materials.

For example, materials for crafting Law Artifact.

Such as medicinal materials and spirit medicine used in the refining of elixirs.

The quality of materials used to craft Law Artifact is immediately apparent. Even rare or newly discovered materials can be quickly identified and their uses and value discovered.

Needless to say, medicinal herbs and spirit medicine are also abundant.

With the medicinal properties already established, many Alchemists and pharmacists are constantly searching for and discovering new varieties of medicinal materials. There will never be a situation where precious medicinal materials or even spirit medicine are treated as useless waste.

In addition, Lu Qingfeng focused his energy on cultivation and "Primordial World," leaving him no time for anything else.

To date, no materials or spiritual objects have been found that have unique value in "Primordial World" but are commonplace in the Three Mountains and Nine Rivers.

Lu Qingyu is different.

During these three years, she practiced the Grand Luo Insight while also reading the various records and materials left to her by Lu Qingfeng. At the same time, she strolled around Gathering Immortals Market, practicing the Grand Luo Insight.

In the past three years, I have reviewed at least 80,000 to 100,000 pieces of material.

Perhaps it was luck, perhaps it was inevitable.

She actually discovered a spiritual object whose value had been temporarily overlooked—

Pure Essence!

Even in the Five Directions Realm and the Chiyan Realm, the true efficacy of the Pure Essence was only discovered many years after its appearance.

Three Mountains and Nine Rivers, it seems they are still in the process of researching the effects of the Pure Essence.

The true value of Pure Essence has not been fully realized.

So Lu Qingyu pretended to enjoy life and squander money, borrowing money everywhere and hoarding large sums of cash.

The price difference earned in just three years reached 486 times.

The information asymmetry between the two worlds is enough for Lu Qingfeng to earn a profit of more than 100,000 to more than 1 million Spirit Stone in a short period of time!

Lu Qingfeng clutched the Storage Bag, which contained 390 jars, totaling 142,350 drops of Pure Essence. If calculated based on the market price of the Shattered Star Sea, it would be worth a full 284,700 Spirit Stone.

Lu Qingyu only spent 618 Spirit Stone, including the 22 pots he drank!

On the way back to Sunset Peak, Lu Qingfeng would unconsciously reveal a smile.

The value of Pure Essence.

More than 200,000 Spirit Stone.

For Lu Qingfeng, who was at the Foundation Establishment stage, it was actually of little use.

First, one should not flaunt one's wealth.

Excessive wealth can be a curse before one has sufficient strength.

Secondly, with Lu Qingfeng's expertise in alchemy and weapon crafting, he could earn enough resources for the three siblings' cultivation by simply taking some time out of his schedule.

Similar to Ironfire Ants and Refined Crystal.

At this stage, the effect of the Pure Essence is mainly reflected in its enhancement of Lu Qingfeng's own cultivation. It is used to prepare Pure Essence Clearbright Spirit Water, thereby strengthening the power of the Grand Luo Insight.

You can also learn more Spirit Eye and magical Divine Ability in the game to increase their power.

Only when Lu Qingfeng reaches the Spirit Void or even the Core Formation will he be able to protect the extremely profitable deal of the Pure Essence and the Clearbright Spirit Water.

It's still a long way off.

But--

"Qingyu has become more independent."

Lu Qingfeng's eyes held a smile, yet also contained a hint of complexity.

If it were any other time, after being separated from her elder brother for three years, Lu Qingyu would not only pester Lu Qingfeng to spend more time with her, but now that Lu Qingfeng has returned to Sunset Peak, she would probably follow him.

But not this time.

Lu Qingfeng suggested that he return to Sunset Peak to pay respects to his master first. Although Lu Qingyu was reluctant to part with him, she did not whine or pester him, nor did she want to come along.

This is a good thing.

The path of spiritual practice ultimately requires learning to be independent.

Lu Qingshan had been aware of this for a long time.

Lu Qingfeng had always felt sorry for Lu Qingyu, who was a girl and the younger sister he had raised since childhood. Although her being banished to the Profound Yin Cavern for three years was an undeserved misfortune, it was a tragedy he couldn't bear.

But fortune may be a harbinger of misfortune, and misfortune may be a harbinger of fortune.

The workings of the world are truly mysterious and beyond words.

The appearance of the Pure Essence will bring even greater benefits to Lu Qingfeng after he achieves the Core Formation. But for now, it is the key to helping Lu Qingyu realize her self-worth, build self-confidence, and thus move towards independence.

While pondering.

We've arrived at Sunset Peak.

"Disciple Lu Qingfeng greets Master."

Hall of Masters, Lu Qingfeng bowed deeply to Gu Buyan, who sat at the head of the table. Three years had passed, and Gu Buyan seemed unchanged, yet also appeared to have aged considerably.

"Get up."

Gu Buyan his sleeve, and a Qingfeng lifted Lu Qingfeng to his feet.

"Thank you, Master."

"Greetings, Senior Brother."

Lu Qingfeng stood up and bowed to Di Zhao beside him.

Di Zhao seemed indifferent to everything and had no particular relationship with him. However, during the three years he was imprisoned in the Profound Yin Cavern, this senior brother, with whom he had no connection, lent Qingyu fifty-two Spirit Stone over time.

You need to know.

Previously, the Sunset Glow Sect only earned fifty or sixty Spirit Stone a year.

Please vote for me!

Double monthly passes! It's the end of the month again, everyone should check if they have any left and not waste them.
