"I was fortunate enough to obtain this Battle City deep in the North Sea, but I do not know its origin."

Lu Qingfeng shook his head, then asked curiously, "May I ask Fairy Han, what is the origin of this Ice-Snow Divine Palace?"

Upon hearing this, Han Ling'er neither pressed for details nor answered Lu Qingfeng's question.

A glance swept across Yuan Gui City.

Seeing that there was nothing in the city, she stopped where she was and looked at Lu Qingfeng, saying, "You have done a great job in nipping the demonic calamity in the bud. I would like to give you a piece of advice: when you are in the Human Realm, you should not provoke too many people. The power of Azurewood Valley and Six Dust Temple in the Spirit Domain is beyond your imagination. Also, this battlefield comes from the Ice-Snow Divine Palace. If it is exposed, it will cause you a lot of trouble."

Between words.

Most of them seem to be admonitions.

But then he revealed his true colors, "Rather than keeping this dilapidated Battle City, which is impossible to repair and may be targeted by the Ice-Snow Divine Palace in the future, why not sell this city to me and get real immortal Immortal Crystal in return? Wouldn't that be wonderful?"

Han Ling'er's face remained calm and expressionless, yet it revealed her sincerity.

"Even a True Immortal would find a Battle City hard to come by. What price is Fairy Han prepared to offer to acquire my 'Yuan Gui City'?"

Lu Qingfeng looked at Han Ling'er and asked.

If she can offer enough benefits, selling this dilapidated Yuan Gui City would be worthwhile.

"The purest Immortal Crystal, formed from the condensation of immortal spiritual energy, takes a Mahayana True Immortal a thousand years to condense."

How about ten dollars?

Han Ling'er flipped her hand, revealing a fist-sized, translucent crystal in her palm, radiating waves of light from all six sides. A single glance was enough to draw one into it, to be swept away by its boundless energy, losing all sense of direction.

It is indeed Immortal Crystal.

"..."

"The foundation of the Battle City is the Immortal Soil. Only when Mahayana True Immortal cultivates in one place and sits in meditation for ten thousand years can he create a place."

"The Immortal Soil is created by True Immortal and bathed in the aura of immortal spirits. It is an excellent treasure land for cultivating spirit medicine and Spirit Plant, building spiritual structures, and even for cultivators to practice. If a sect acquires it, it can serve as an unshakeable foundation for all eternity."

"This Immortal Soil, spanning only twenty or thirty miles, is worth no less than thirty Immortal Crystal."

Lu Qingfeng looked at Han Ling'er, not knowing whether to laugh or cry.

This cheap senior sister is far too ruthless. She's taking advantage of his being from the lower realm, assuming he doesn't understand the concepts and values of True Immortal, Immortal Soil, and Immortal Crystal, and is trying to rip him off.

If Lu Qingfeng is ignorant.

Upon first seeing such a wondrous object as the Immortal Crystal, I was astonished by the rich and pure immortal spiritual energy within it.

A deep longing in my heart.

If they really sold it for ten Immortal Crystal, or even haggled down to Immortal Crystal, wouldn't those who ascend to the upper realms be filled with regret upon finding out?!

Hearing Lu Qingfeng's words and seeing the mocking look in the eyes of the Daoist Du Tian, Han Ling'er felt her face burning. If she weren't Mahayana True Immortal who could control herself, she would have blushed with shame on the spot.

"Whoosh!"

Caught off guard, Han Ling'er secretly adjusted her mindset, but on the surface remained as unmoved as a mountain. She said calmly, "The origin of this city is unknown. If I were to buy it, I would also have to bear the risks, and its value would naturally be greatly reduced."

She said.

After a moment's thought, he continued, "Thirty-five Immortal Crystal are the limit I can offer. In this Mountain-Water Realm, you will find it difficult to attack this city except for me. Moreover, you have made many enemies. Obtaining Immortal Crystal to enhance your strength is better than stubbornly defending this dilapidated Battle City."

"..."

Lu Qingfeng listened and shook his head, "I have no intention of taking action in this city, regardless of the amount of Immortal Crystal."

Then why are you spouting all this nonsense?!

Han Ling'er almost felt a surge of anger.

Fortunately, he was well-mannered and did not show it. "The Battle City is difficult to build and repair. When you understand the difficulties in the future and want to take action, you can use this item to summon it."

"Price is negotiable."

Han Ling'er took out a jade talisman and handed it to Lu Qingfeng.

He turned around and pretended to leave.

Lu Qingfeng took the jade talisman and, seeing the situation, hurriedly called out, "Fairy, please wait."

"Um?"

A surge of joy welled up in Han Ling'er's heart, but her face remained calm and composed. She turned around and looked at Lu Qingfeng, "Is there anything else?"

"I have no plans to sell the Battle City at the moment, but I have other businesses that I would like to cooperate with you, Fairy."

Lu Qingfeng smiled.

"Other businesses?"

Han Ling'er's gaze shifted, landing on the Seven-Star Tower and the Black Tortoise Tower.

Upon seeing this, Lu Qingfeng knew that this cheap senior sister had gone astray again, so he quickly got straight to the point, "Fairy, you may not know, but more than a thousand years ago, I was fortunate enough to refine a kind of spiritual water called 'Clearbright Spirit Water'."

Wiping one's eyes with this water can grant cultivators who haven't practiced Technique Method like the Spirit Eye or Dharma Eye the ability to develop 'Clearbright Spirit Eye,' allowing them to perceive minute details and gain a significant advantage in combat. For cultivators who have practiced Technique Method like the Spirit Eye or Dharma Eye, a single dose of Clearbright Spirit Water can directly increase their power by 20%. With prolonged use, this can increase their power by up to 70-80%.

Bluegold Pure Essence.

Clearbright Spirit Water.

This was the business opportunity that Qingyu discovered through the 'Grand Luo Insight,' and it was also the main source of financial resources for Lu Qingfeng's rise to prominence. However, the market in the Three Mountains and Nine Rivers region was ultimately limited, as were his financial resources. When Lu Qingfeng sold 'Clearbright Spirit Water,' he not only had to control the quantity but also suppress the price.

Only then can sales be guaranteed.

The losses were considerable.

If Han Ling'er, True Immortal of the Spirit Domain, could open up a channel within the Spirit Domain, then a massive amount of 'Clearbright Spirit Water' could continuously provide Lu Qingfeng with Spirit Stone and refining materials.

Moreover, earning Spirit Stone by selling 'Clearbright Spirit Water' is secondary.

The key is to use the Clearbright Spirit Water as a stepping stone to open up channels to the Spirit Domain, and then use Han Ling'er to earn Immortal Crystal and precious materials to repair Yuan Gui City.

At that time.

Even amidst Three Mountains and Nine Rivers, he could rapidly improve his strength.

It used to take two or three thousand years to reach the Primordial Spirit Peak, but with the support of Immortal Crystal and various Spirit Domain resources, it might be possible to achieve it in less than a thousand years.

On the path of spiritual practice.

Especially for Lu Qingfeng, being one step ahead is always a good thing.

"Clearbright Spirit Water?"

"At least increase the power of various Spirit Eye and magic eye Technique Method by 20%?"

Han Ling'er showed no shock, clearly possessing exceptional knowledge due to her background in the Spirit Domain. She nodded slightly and said, "Most cultivators in the Spirit Domain practice such Technique Method to some extent. If this Clearbright Spirit Water truly has the effects you describe, and it doesn't have any similarities, overlapping effects, or conflicts with other similar spiritual pills and waters commonly circulated in the Spirit Domain, then there's no need to worry about its sales."

Although Han Ling'er is True Immortal of the Spirit Domain, she herself is quite poor.

His own cultivation was already barely enough on a regular basis, and now he had been bestowed a Battle City by his teacher. The basic infrastructure in Han Ling City was already completed, but it was all just ordinary facilities.

Like a powerful weapon for attack.

Apart from a set of the "Violetstar Northern Dipper Judgment of Heaven's Fortune, there were only forty-eight " Star-Annihilating Crossbow ".

Outer Dao soldiers.

Only the second-tier Dao Soldiers 'Astral Elf', who is responsible for construction, and the fourth-tier Dao Soldiers 'Star-Seizing Giant', who takes into account both combat and construction.

It's already difficult to deal with a Fifth-Tier Star-Sucking Lord, let alone going to the front lines to fight against countless Devil Creature in the future.

In the future, it will be inevitable to add Dao Soldiers buildings, formation buildings, and various offensive and defensive weapons to enrich the offensive and defensive system of Han Ling City.

All of these require substantial financial support.

Even.

Even without expansion, once the Battle City, "The sound of cannons is worth a fortune." Not to mention how expensive the Star-Annihilating Crossbow is, just driving the Star-Annihilating Crossbow and the "Violetstar Northern Dipper Judgment of Heaven's Fortune" array alone consumes countless amounts of energy.

Han Ling City's storage and recovery capabilities alone are simply insufficient to support this.

When caught in a protracted battle, one must prepare Immortal Crystal for safety.

Therefore.

You can never have too much money.

This is also why Han Ling'er wanted to buy Yuan Gui City at a low price and sell it at a high price, making this unscrupulous and greedy money.

There was nothing I could do.

Han Ling City was starving and needed food, so Han Ling'er could only think of ways to raise the money.

In the past, if a cultivator from the lower realm like Lu Qingfeng wanted to do business with her, Han Ling'er might not have paid any attention. But right now, she had plenty of patience.

Seeing that Han Ling'er was quite interested, Lu Qingfeng was also delighted and quickly said, "If you're worried, Fairy, we'll know once we try."

The Clearbright Spirit Water) was extremely profitable.

Lu Qingfeng also had other ways to make money, but when it came to being simple, direct, and reliable, 'Clearbright Spirit Water' was the top choice.

"There are three grades of Clearbright Spirit Water."

"The first tier is a thousand years old, which can help Core Formation who have reached the Core Formation or below, and increase the power of Spirit Eye -type Technique Method by 20%. Long-term wiping can increase the power by 70% to 80%."

"The second tier is ten thousand years old, which still increases power by 20%, but it is effective for both the Primordial Spirit True One. Long-term wiping can increase power by 40% to 50%."

"The third tier is 100,000 years old, with a 20% increase, effective for Mahayana True Immortal. Long-term wiping can increase power by about 30%."

Lu Qingfeng took out one hundred portions of thousand-year-old Clearbright Spirit Water, ten portions of ten-thousand-year-old Clearbright Spirit Water, and one portion of one hundred-thousand-year-old Mingqing spiritual water from his sleeve and handed them all to Han Ling'er. "Fairy Han can test them first. If they are satisfactory, we can discuss the price. These three grades of Clearbright Spirit Water are just the basic versions. Over the years, I have devoted myself to research and have developed several advanced versions with even stronger effects and extremely difficult to analyze. Fairy, you don't need to worry about others stealing this unique business from you."

This is to Mind Settling Han Ling'er.

It was also out of concern that with so many channels in the Spirit Domain, someone might have already figured out the Clearbright Spirit Water formula from the Pure Essence, thus discouraging Han Ling'er from cooperating. Or perhaps Han Ling'er was considering analyzing the liquid and going it alone, so they were trying to put pressure on her in advance.

After all, the Spirit Domain is far away and not under Lu Qingfeng's control.

However, what he said was true.

The Clearbright Spirit Water are already difficult to analyze. The so-called basic version he provided is a formula that he enhanced once with the Yellow Court Scripture, making it nearly perfect and extremely difficult to decipher.

Even if immortal sects and alchemy grandmasters spend time, energy, and money to crack it, Lu Qingfeng still has countless versions that can be enhanced twice, three times, four times, and so on, enough for his 'Clearbright Spirit Water' to seize the market.

"I will reply to you as soon as possible."

Han Ling'er understood the meaning behind it, nodded slightly, and then transformed into a rainbow and left.

Seeing this, Lu Qingfeng called out loudly to the sky, "This humble Daoist awaits the fairy's return in the city."

Before he could finish speaking...

Han Ling'er has disappeared without a trace.

"Such a black-hearted and greedy person can still generously give away three Immortal Crystal."

"This senior sister is indeed worth getting close to."

Lu Qingfeng watched Han Ling'er leave, his fondness for her growing stronger as he thought of the three Immortal Crystal. Only after Han Ling'er disappeared did he turn and head towards the City Lord's Mansion.

As he walked, he was still scheming in his mind. "Han Ling'er, who owns the Battle City, is a money-devouring glutton and will not give up any path to wealth. I will use 'Clearbright Spirit Water' as a way to pave the way, and in the future I can also sell enhanced versions of Yellow Dragon Pill, Clear Spirit Powder and other basic pills."

"The profit margin is substantial, and the demand for sales is extremely high."

"If managed well, the profits will be no less than those of 'Clearbright Spirit Water'."

It has gone through many generations.

Lu Qingfeng naturally knew that the demand for these basic, low-grade pills was the greatest. Thinking of the vast market in the Spirit Domain, Lu Qingfeng's smile widened even further—

"The Alchemist trained by the Du Tian Lineage for many years can finally be put to good use."
