Cultivating for a hundred lifetimes to ascension

Chapter 1679: Chapter 903: Stone Spirit Recognizes Master, Tianyunzi’s Breakthrough Accomplished

For a moment, the atmosphere grew oppressive.

After a period of silence, the black-robed stranger finally questioned: “This old man wants to trade for some longevity items and elixirs that can nourish the primordial spirit. How much can you procure?”

Zhao Sheng smiled slightly: “Whatever amount you desire, I can provide. There are numerous longevity items; I have treasure medicines that grant ten years, a hundred years, a thousand years, and even several elixir pills that extend life by ten thousand years.

As for elixirs that nourish the primordial spirit, there are even more. From the lowest First Rank Loose Pill to the Eighth Rank Doumu Soul Stabilizing Pill. Each has a different price based on grade and rarity.”

The black-robed stranger was quite tempted but suppressed his excitement and said in a deep voice: “Then… what do you want?”

Upon hearing this, Zhao Sheng laughed loudly: “Immortal bone! Besides immortal bone, I also want the refining method for the Filthy Immortal Arrow. If the senior has rare items like ancient immortal techniques, immortal artifacts, or heaven and earth treasures, I am willing to trade at a high price.”

The black-robed stranger said: “No Wind Immortal Bone! Do you want immortal bones of other attributes?”

Zhao Sheng’s eyes lit up, and he decisively nodded: “I want them, regardless of the attribute of the immortal bone, I want them.”

“One pill that extends life by ten thousand years for one immortal bone!” The black-robed stranger hardened his heart and suddenly shouted a high price.

Zhao Sheng’s smile froze, and he slowly shook his head: “The senior is too insincere. How many years will you have to wait after missing me as the best trading partner? Even if a new Immortal Ruins Guest arrives, can you be sure he can acquire the spirit pills you want?”

“For one immortal bone, at most, I can only offer three treasure pills that extend life by a thousand years. To show sincerity, I guarantee that these three treasure pills are different from each other.”

Longevity elixirs are different from other elixirs; only one of each kind can be ingested, and ingesting a second has no life-extending effect.

It is unclear which sentence moved the other party. After hesitating for a while, the black-robed stranger actually nodded in agreement.

Seeing this, Zhao Sheng was filled with enthusiasm and hastily asked about the refining method for the Filthy Immortal Arrow.

However, this time, no matter how he tempted the other, the black-robed stranger refused to budge.

After entangling for an hour, Zhao Sheng, helpless, finally resorted to his trump card.

“…I have a “Demon Refining Heart Fire Technique”, acquired from an Ancient Golden Immortal, it is extraordinarily miraculous. Even a true immortal level devilish thought can be easily refined. Does the senior desire it?”

“Hmm? Is this true!” The black-robed stranger suddenly raised his head to look over, his black robe slightly trembling, seemingly reflecting the owner’s unsettled mood.

Zhao Sheng admitted he exaggerated a bit, but “Demon Refining Heart Fire Technique” can indeed refine true immortal demons.

Zhao Sheng solemnly said: “I won’t ruin my reputation for the sake of a single transaction. If the senior doesn’t believe me, I can write down the first thirty percent of the technique right now.”

Having said that, he took out a jade pupil scroll, and his will and heart light flowed into the scroll like water, instantly engraving more than seven hundred immortal seal characters.

Then, he tossed the jade pupil scroll over.

The black-robed stranger flicked his sleeve, instantly taking the jade pupil scroll into his sleeve.

After one breath, the hem of the black-robed stranger’s clothing moved, and his voice, surprisingly, was somewhat trembling.

“Deal!”

Zhao Sheng, hearing this, was delighted in his heart, though he maintained a calm demeanor outwardly.

At that moment, a three-foot square golden plate and the jade pupil scroll suddenly floated out from the black-robed stranger’s sleeve.

The golden plate and jade pupil scroll flew over smoothly, quickly hovering in mid-air.

Seeing this, Zhao Sheng understood immediately and quickly released a strand of will heart light, enveloping the jade pupil scroll.

In an instant, the complete “Demon Refining Heart Fire Technique” was engraved into the jade scroll.

With a thought, the jade pupil scroll swiftly floated towards the black-robed stranger, while the golden plate was drawn to him.

As soon as it landed in his hand, Zhao Sheng’s heart light was instantly affected, and the golden plate suddenly revealed densely packed Tao true texts.

The truly miraculous aspect was that these Tao true texts naturally merged with his will heart light, then vividly imprinted themselves into his spirit, impossible to forget.

Zhao Sheng immediately realized he had gained a great bargain.

The mere one thousand four hundred ninety-six Tao true texts were enough to achieve the status of a Tribulation Crossing Realm Venerable, let alone the additional refining method for the Filthy Immortal Arrow.

The proverbial “buy the box and keep the jewel” applied perfectly.

The black-robed stranger had lived in the Burial Immortal Ruins for far too long, likely overlooking the hardships of mortal cultivators in the lower realm.

Zhao Sheng’s determination was unyielding, quickly regaining composure.

“Senior, are you willing to sell one or two immortal bones?” he asked again.

“Next time!” The black-robed stranger put away the jade pupil scroll but unexpectedly said: “This old man needs some time. Young friend, when you come next, why not bring more elixirs for longevity and nourishing the primordial spirit?”

Zhao Sheng thoughtfully nodded and then set the time for the next transaction.

The black-robed stranger seemed eager to leave; as soon as the time was set, he transformed into a mass of black mist and vanished into the hazy skies.

Just as he left, the Stone Spirit suddenly emerged from the ground.

It sneakily glanced around and whispered: “Has the old fellow left?”

Zhao Sheng replied: “Just left!”

Upon hearing this, the Stone Spirit immediately jumped out of the ground, bounced before Zhao Sheng, and exclaimed loudly: “Good riddance! That dead bone is too annoying, just because we owe him a five-colored stone, every time he comes, he nags incessantly.”

With a thought, Zhao Sheng suddenly smiled: “I also want five-colored stones! Stone Spirit senior, can you procure a few?”

Five-colored stones are earth element strange objects of immortal treasure level, divided into several grades, of which earth is the lowest grade.
