What's your name?
Lu Qingshan casually pointed to a Master of Laws was slightly older and looked rather composed.
"My lord, my name is Shi Ling. I have lived on Great Marsh Island for hundreds of millions of epochs and am very familiar with everything here." The Alien Race hurriedly stepped forward, his attitude respectful but not servile.
Lu Qingshan casually tossed out a Chaos Stone, a spoils he'd obtained from True God Level -level beast he'd slain on the road, found in a cave. In the Jin World, it was considered a fairly reliable currency. "Take me to a place where I can trade True God Level biological materials."
Shi Ling took the Chaos Stone, a hint of surprise flashing in his eyes, and quickly put it away. "My lord, please follow me."
He led Lu Qingshan through several streets to a large stone building.
Above the main entrance of the building hangs a huge stone plaque with the Elder Gu characters " Great Marsh Chamber of Commerce " engraved on it.
The entrance was bustling with people, clearly indicating good business; those coming and going were all at the True God Level.
"My lord, the Great Marsh Chamber of Commerce is the largest trading company in this sea area, with a very powerful background. Almost all kinds of rare materials can be found here. They accept both barter and Chaos Stone transactions," Shi Ling explained. "If you have a large amount of materials that you want to sell, or if you want to exchange them for certain specific items, you can't go wrong by going to them."
"I understand. Just wait for me here." Lu Qingshan walked into the Chamber of Commerce.
The interior of the Chamber of Commerce was much more spacious than the exterior. The entire hall was like a separate space, filled with all kinds of counters and display shelves, displaying various True God Level materials, finished Supreme Treasure, and rare ores.
Lu Qingshan glanced at the price tags. A complete scale armor of a True God Level beast was priced at several hundred, or even several thousand Chaos Stone.
Those strange ores have varying values; some are just a few pieces of Chaos Stone, while others are worth tens of thousands.
Lu Qingshan only glanced at it for a moment.
A merchant guild leader with pointed ears and wearing a long robe approached with a smile, "Esteemed guest, are you looking to sell materials or purchase treasures?"
Lu Qingshan glanced at him, casually took out a storage box and threw it on the ground, saying...
"Can you tell me how much these things are worth?"
The shopkeeper raised an eyebrow, revealing an interested expression. He clapped his hands, and two servants ran over, opened the box, and he examined the contents one by one.
Much later.
The shopkeeper then spoke:
"Sir... there are too many of these treasures, but they are all very ordinary items, with a total value of 39,800 Chaos Stone. How about I round it up to 40,000 Chaos Stone for you?"
The shopkeeper's voice carried a hint of probing.
"Sure." Lu Qingshan answered decisively, without haggling. Those treasures were merely spoils of war from hunting True God Level beasts; he kept the useful ones and exchanged the useless ones for Chaos Stone, which would be more convenient. "Please wait a moment, sir. I'll fetch the Chaos Stone for you now."
The shopkeeper revealed a hint of joy and ordered his assistant to fetch the Chaos Stone.
Lu Qingshan shook his head and said, "I still need to buy a few things; we can settle the bill at the end."
"Please make your selection, sir."
The shopkeeper smiled.
He was naturally very happy to make two profits from buying and selling.
Lu Qingshan pointed to the True God Level scales and other materials he had just picked out on the shelf and said, "Pack these up. I also need some other unusual ores, True God Level blood, and bones. The price is negotiable."
As the largest business association on the island, the Great Marsh Chamber of Commerce naturally has a considerable amount of inventory.
The shopkeeper took out all the materials Lu Qingshan needed, one by one. When it came time to settle the bill, 40,000 Chaos Stone weren't enough, so Lu Qingshan took out a True God Level weapon as a discount. In the end, he successfully took away all the biological materials and Wonder ores.
After the transaction was completed, Lu Qingshan turned and left.
Having completed such a large transaction, the manager of the Great Marsh Chamber of Commerce and his servant escorted him to the door. The short servant watched Lu Qingshan's departing figure, a hint of excitement flashing in his eyes, before quickly lowering his head.
The shopkeeper noticed this scene as well. He walked behind the young servant and whispered, " Tugu, don't interfere." "Shopkeeper, I'm just looking," the young servant named Tugu grinned. "A Master of Laws buying so many True God Level materials without even flinching, and possessing extra True God Level Supreme Treasure... this person is probably a core disciple of some powerful force, or perhaps has some connection to the military. I don't have the guts."
The shopkeeper didn't say anything more, but silently glanced at him.
Within their Great Marsh Chamber of Commerce, there is an array capable of detecting powerful beings. They can sense the approximate strength of their guests within it. The fellow in the blue robe just now, although possessing a powerful aura, did not actually have the True God Heart, so he could only be a Master of Laws.
Although ordinary Master of Laws wouldn't be able to produce so many good things.
"It's good that you know. Although our Great Marsh Chamber of Commerce has some background, it's nothing compared to the military and those major powers. Try not to cause trouble."
The shopkeeper gave him another reminder before turning and walking into the hall.
The young servant glanced again in the direction where Lu Qingshan had disappeared, and then followed him inside.
Outside of the Chamber of Commerce.
Lu Qingshan also noticed that the spying from behind had disappeared.
Possessing Wings of Life and Eye of Wisdom, he has an extremely keen sense of danger; he sensed it the moment the servant glanced at him.
However, Lu Qingshan didn't care much.
Behind the Great Marsh Chamber of Commerce is at most only a Void True God. Void True God obviously wouldn't attack just because of what he's offered; anyone below Void True God would be no different from offering themselves up as food.
Even when facing Void True God, Lu Qingshan was confident that he could use the Lesser World-Breaking Teleportation Technique to leave. Although he did not sense the power of the One Thought Void, it was clear that breaking through the One Thought Void was much simpler than breaking through the dimensions of the universe.
Shi Ling was still waiting at the crossroads. Seeing Lu Qingshan come out, he came up to him and asked, "Sir, did the transaction go smoothly?"
"Not bad," Lu Qingshan said. "Are there any suitable caves for cultivation nearby?"
"Yes, there are." Shi Ling nodded quickly. "There are many cave dwellings for rent on Great Marsh Island, divided into three grades: superior, middle, and inferior. As someone of your status, I suggest renting a superior cave dwelling. Superior cave dwellings are located deep within the island, undisturbed by the outside world, and they also have a small Time Acceleration array inside, which can save a lot of time."
"Take me to rent a superior cave dwelling."
A moment later, Lu Qingshan arrived at a secluded cave. The exterior of the cave looked like ordinary stone walls, but the interior space was quite spacious and had an independent Time Acceleration array that could maintain a speed of about a hundred times.
Don't be fooled by the fact that it's only a hundred times.
This 100x acceleration corresponds to the True God level. Even if the consumption were increased by 100,000 times for Immortal, it wouldn't be as effective as it is now.
"Not bad." Lu Qingshan paid the rent and sent Shi Ling away.
He went deep into the cave, closed the door, and sat down cross-legged.
Immediately afterwards, he separated a Xue You Clone, which was far away at the Core Land the Universe Boat. Synchronizing with the Xue You Clone, which was undergoing One Hundred Thousand Times Time Acceleration, he began to study the True God Level biological materials he had collected in the Jin World. The genetic structure of the creatures in the Jin World differed greatly from that of the Universe Ocean, and their life essence seemed to be a level higher. Each piece of material was like a thick book, waiting to be deciphered by him.
With the combined benefits of One Hundred Thousand Times Time Acceleration and the Eye of Wisdom, his research efficiency was extremely high.
"The materials from the Jin World are indeed more suitable than those from the Universe Ocean, and they are having a good effect on me right now."
Lu Qingshan was immersed in his research, and time slowly passed.
Deep within Great Marsh Island, a short figure stealthily approached the exterior of a superior cave dwelling.
He took out the token in his hand, exchanged a few words, and soon the door to the cave opened.
" Tugu, you brat, what are you doing here with the three of us instead of working for the Great Marsh Chamber of Commerce?"
A cold-looking man with a fierce face like a hungry wolf asked.
Under this man's gaze, the servant named Tugu couldn't help but shiver. He cautiously said, "Second Brother Beihai, I've found a fat sheep. You'll definitely be interested."
"A fat sheep? Tell me about it."
A burly voice rang out. It belonged to a man with disheveled hair, resembling a lion, who was the leader of the three and also the strongest among them.
Tugu immediately began to recount what had happened.
After he finished speaking, the three True God inside the cave became interested.
"You mean, a Master of Laws actually traded for treasures worth 40,000 Chaos Stone with your Great Marsh Chamber of Commerce, and even offered a True God Level treasure as collateral?"
" The Master of Laws wouldn't have so many treasures. Even most True God couldn't produce this many."
"It's absolutely true. I saw it with my own eyes, how could it be false? Our Great Marsh Chamber of Commerce's detection array clearly detected that that guy doesn't have the True God Heart, he must be Master of Laws."
Tugu said with absolute certainty.
"This isn't the first time we've worked together, so we certainly trust you. However, the Master of Laws possessing so many treasures might have some powerful connections..."
"Or perhaps one of the lucky ones stumbles upon the lair of a True God Level beast."
"At least 40,000 Chaos Stone, it's definitely worth the three of us making a move. Tugu, go back and wait for news. Once we've dealt with him, you'll get your share."
"Thank you, brothers."
Tugu smiled broadly, bowed respectfully, and then slowly left the cave. He knew that as long as these three agreed, the matter was basically settled.
The Three Fiends of the North Sea?
How incredibly powerful!
These three were all extremely powerful beings among the True God, and they had even served in the military. During a disaster mission, only the three of them survived. After retiring, they became sworn brothers and stirred up trouble near the Great Marsh Sea, earning them a fearsome reputation.
Being targeted by them would mean certain death even for True God, let alone someone who is merely a Master of Laws...
