Twenty Heavenly Crystals

"Meanwhile, the Daoist Zixu suddenly rose to power, and after making a three-point agreement with the Liu Clan, he seized control of the Spirit Vein of Heavenly Lake Island."

"Of the seven disciples of Daoist Zixu, five are members of the Liu Clan clan. Each of them has been nurtured by Daoist Zixu to the Golden Core realm stage, and can be considered to be under Daoist Zixu's protection."

"But since True Lord Liu Clan died fighting for the Human Race, the Human Race Dao Lord of the Eastern Wilderness would not allow other Nascent Soul True Lord to go too far, so they presupposed that Daoist Zixu would take over Heavenly Lake Island."

"I see."

Chen Nianzhi nodded, finally understanding the Karmic Retribution behind it.

At this moment, the Daoist Zixu said, "I urgently need some Origin Celestial Crystal and Tier 4 High-Grade Law Treasure. If you have any Heavenly Crystal or Supreme Magical Treasure, you can choose any of these treasures I have."

Upon hearing this, everyone showed delight, and several people immediately took out items such as Heavenly Crystal to exchange for their desired treasures with Daoist Zixu.

After exchanging for sixteen or seventeen Heavenly Crystal and obtaining two Tier 4 High-Grade Law Treasure, Daoist Zixu walked off the stage with satisfaction.

The second person to step forward was Huo Zhenyan. He also took out several treasures, all of which were extremely valuable and of at least the middle grade of the Tier 4 Mid-Grade.

Compared to Daoist Zixu's wealth, his treasures were somewhat inferior, but they were still quickly exchanged.

After Huo Zhenyan completed the transaction, Chen Nianzhi and Jiang Linglong were the third to go on stage.

Looking at the Golden Core realm cultivators present, the two felt a surge of joy. The earlier the Exchange Fair began, the greater the chance of obtaining their desired treasures.

They were the third to take the stage, a truly rare opportunity.

Thinking of this, Chen Nianzhi raised his hand and released a string of precious light. Among these precious lights were five Fourth-order Heavenly Material, three Tier 4 low-grade Law Treasure, several scrolls of Golden Core realm offensive Divine Ability, and three Tier 4 Spirit Apricot.

In particular, the Tier 4 Spirit Apricot is a treasure for prolonging life. Taking one apricot can add two cycles of sixty years to one's lifespan, which is enough to make most of the Golden Core True Person present extremely envious.

As expected, Golden Core True Person immediately asked, "May I True Person, how much do you sell these Tier 4 Spirit Apricot?"

"Please don't be in a hurry."

Chen Nianzhi smiled slightly and used his magic Law Power to display the extra treasures in his hands, "Everyone, I would like to exchange them for the Bing Fire and Wu Earth divine light Divine Ability, as well as the Ji Earth and Kui-Water divine Divine Ability."

"If you have any, feel free to contact me for a replacement."

"Besides, I also urgently need Origin Celestial Crystal. You can exchange Heavenly Crystal for the treasures I have. I am also willing to pay a 20% premium and use Spirit Stone to purchase the Heavenly Crystal."

"The Bing-Fire Divine Radiance?" A Golden Core True Person revealed a look of delight, then said, "I do have one."

As he spoke, he bargained with Chen Nianzhi Chen Nianzhi, exchanging the Bing-Fire Divine Radiance for a magic escape Divine Ability.

Following this transaction, someone else brought out the Ji-Earth Divine Thunder and exchanged it with Chen Nianzhi for a Cultivation Method.

After that, the Wu-Earth Divine Radiance and the Kui-Water Divine Thunder became so rare that they seemed to have been lost in the Eastern Wilderness, and no one could produce them anymore.

However, Chen Nianzhi and Jiang Linglong were still very satisfied, as they exchanged three Life-Extending Spirit Apricot for six Heavenly Crystal in one go.

In addition, the other treasures were also bought by others with Heavenly Crystal, and Chen Nianzhi obtained twelve Heavenly Crystal in one go.

Adding to the eight they had already obtained, they now possessed twenty Heavenly Crystal.

Unfortunately, the plan to acquire the Heavenly Crystal with Spirit Stone did not go smoothly. Even with a 20% premium, the Golden Core realm cultivators present still waited for a better price.

Because there are many treasures at this Exchange Fair, only hard currency like Heavenly Crystal can be used to exchange for desired high-level treasures.

Left with no other choice, the two stepped down from the platform. Chen Nianzhi said with some disappointment, "What a pity. It's such a rare opportunity, but no one is willing to exchange Heavenly Crystal for Spirit Stone."

"The Heavenly Crystal is exceptionally precious; this was to be expected."

Jiang Linglong spoke calmly, then smiled and said, "We've already collected twenty Heavenly Crystal, and we only have thirty million Heavenly Crystal Spirit Stone left to exchange for them."

"Later, we'll travel to several continents, searching for suitable Golden Core Immortal Clan to trade with, and we'll surely be able to exchange them all for Heavenly Crystal."

"That's the only way."

Chen Nianzhi nodded and sighed.

The Exchange Fair lasted for three days. After the conference ended, Chen Nianzhi and Jiang Linglong walked out of Zixu Tower.

"Please wait a moment, both of you."

Just as they were about to return to their cave, they heard a voice coming from there.

Chen Nianzhi looked up and saw that the visitor was none other than Huo Zhenyan. This person's cultivation had reached the Nascent Pseudo-Nascent Soul realm stage, so Chen Nianzhi naturally wouldn't be negligent. He cupped his hands and said, "Brother Huo, what brings you to keep me here?"

"Hahaha."

Huo Zhenyan laughed and looked at the two of them, saying, "I see you're looking to buy Heavenly Crystal, so I wanted to have a talk with you."

"Oh?"

Jiang Linglong's eyes flickered slightly, but she said calmly, "Could it be that you are willing to exchange Heavenly Crystal for Spirit Stone with us?"

"Exactly."

"But the price..."

Huo Zhenyan paused, then smiled and flicked her folding fan, saying, "I'm afraid we need to suggest a few more things."

Chen Nianzhi and Jiang Linglong exchanged a glance, a thought flashing through her mind. She quickly said, "If your quantity is large enough, I'm willing to pay a 25% premium."

A 25% premium means that's already a 25% markup on the value.

Huo Zhenyan shook her head and nodded, then closed her folding fan and said, "My Huo Clan has seventeen Heavenly Crystal in our collection, which I originally intended to use to purchase Nascent Soul Formation Pill."

"How about this, if you're willing to pay a 30% premium, I'll sell the Heavenly Crystal to you."

Chen Nianzhi's heart skipped a beat. Although the price was 30% higher, it was still a good deal if it could save them a lot of time.

After all, if they traveled to each state one by one, it would take them several years on average to reach each state, which would delay their cultivation in the long run.

With this thought in mind, Chen Nianzhi said, "The deal is done."

"Okay." Huo Zhenyan showed a look of joy, then frowned and said, "That Heavenly Crystal is extremely precious, and there are no Nascent Soul Formation Pill for sale this time, so I didn't bring any."

"To complete this deal, you'll need to come with me to the Dawn Continent."

Jiang Linglong's eyes narrowed, and she said with a slightly cold expression, "Going to the Dawn Continent is too far and difficult; it's probably not suitable. Why don't you send the Heavenly Crystal to the Heavenly Lake Continent, and we'll wait for you here?"

Huo Zhenyan shook her head and said firmly, "Dawn Continent is millions of miles away from here, and the Qilian Mountains are in between. It would take at least half a year to cross it, and a round trip would take one or two years."

"I am only sixty years away from my next attempt to break through to the Nascent Soul. This constant back-and-forth travel is not only dangerous but also a waste of my Law Power. It's not worth it to earn such a small profit."

Upon hearing this, Chen Nianzhi frowned, and after a long pause, said, "Acting across continents is of great importance; please allow us to discuss it further."

"Alright." Huo Zhenyan cupped her hands in greeting and said, "Then I will come to see you both again in three days."

He said this, then turned and left.
