"Mm!"
Fang Chen nodded. "If I really need help, I won't stand on ceremony with you. I'll let you know when the time comes. I'll leave you to your cultivation!"
With that, Fang Chen turned and left the Swallowing Heaven Tower. He waited for Little Crane and the Myna bird in his Cave Abode.
Two hours later, Little Crane and the Myna bird returned.
"Master, we're back!" Little Crane said to Fang Chen excitedly.
"Thanks for the effort!" Fang Chen said with a smile.
The Myna bird said, "Those treasures were worth more than we expected. We sold them for over 2.12 billion Emperor Origin Stones. Together with the more than 380 million we already had, that gave us over 2.5 billion. We bought five bottles of Dreamlike Immortal Dew!"
"Dreamlike Immortal Dew?"
Fang Chen's eyes sharpened. The name alone told him this treasure was no ordinary thing.
Little Crane opened her mouth and spat out five black bottles. "Master, Dreamlike Immortal Dew is incredibly effective at strengthening the soul. It's easily absorbed after you drink it. You enter a wondrous dream, and your Soul Origin grows stronger on its own while you sleep. You don't even have to circulate your cultivation to absorb it. It works much better than the Essence of Thousand Yuan Immortal Grass. Its only drawback is the price—five hundred million Emperor Origin Stones a bottle!"
Little Crane's heart ached as she spoke. Two and a half billion Emperor Origin Stones could have formed a hill if piled in front of her, yet they had bought only five tiny bottles of Immortal Dew.
"You two certainly know how to spend big!" Fang Chen couldn't help saying. Two and a half billion Emperor Origin Stones for just five bottles of dew.
Still, they had stolen the money.
