Chapter 484: Transaction with Qing Yuanzi
Ye Changsheng now has elixirs that can assist him in breaking through to the middle stage of the Refinement Realm, so he has a great chance of entering the middle stage of the Refinement Realm.
Of course, if he was given a few more kinds of elixirs, he would accept them all.
Although the resources that can assist in breaking through to the late stage of the Refining Void realm are hard to find in this world, it should not be a problem with Qing Yuanzi.
The price of a pill that helps break through to the late stage of refining emptiness is about 100 million spirit stones, while the price of a golden thunder bamboo is more than 100 million spirit stones.
With this golden thunder bamboo, it should not be difficult to exchange it for several kinds of elixirs from Qing Yuanzi.
After Ye Changsheng made up his mind, he immediately said: "Please rest assured, senior, as long as I can return to the human race, I will find a way to collect all the golden thunder bamboos in that world!"
When Qing Yuanzi heard this, he nodded with satisfaction, and a hint of relief appeared in his eyes.
However, he was somewhat confused as to why he found nothing when he was in the human world.
What kind of Golden Thunder Bamboo? There weren't many of them found, but Ye Changsheng was able to find so many in the human world.
It seems that after I ascended to heaven, many changes happened in that human world.
"Mr. Ye, as long as you help me find the Golden Thunder Bamboo, I can agree to some of your requests!" Qing Yuanzi said with a smile.
Ye Changsheng smiled when he heard this, took out a box from his storage bracelet, and said:
"Let's talk about the affairs of the human world later. I will give this golden thunder bamboo in my hand to you first!"
Ye Changsheng handed over the jade box and looked at Qing Yuanzi with a smile on his face.
Qing Yuanzi's expression suddenly darkened, and he asked in a voice full of displeasure: "Why, do you think that I can't afford the price of this golden thunder bamboo?"
Ye Changsheng quickly smiled and said, "No, no, how dare this junior question your financial resources!"
"It's just that I'm lucky to meet you in a foreign land. I'll give you this golden thunder bamboo as a gift. How dare I ask for any reward?"
Qing Yuanzi shook his head repeatedly when he heard this: "Young friend Ye, you are too polite. I can't take something as precious as the Golden Thunder Bamboo for nothing. How about this, if you have any requests, just let me know!"
"If you say something like it's free again, don't blame me for being rude!" Qing Yuanzi said with a gloomy face.
Ye Changsheng smiled helplessly upon hearing this, and said, "Since Senior is determined to buy this Golden Thunder Bamboo, then I can't insist any longer!"
"The juniors do have some things they want!"
"Senior, you can see my cultivation clearly. I am a cultivator in the early stage of refining emptiness. I am nothing in this vast continent. If I want to return to the human race, this level of cultivation is not enough!"
"So, I want to exchange some things from you that can help me break through the bottleneck, so as to improve my cultivation and make it easier for me to return to the human race in the future and fulfill your instructions!" Ye Changsheng said with a serious expression.
"I see. Resources to improve your cultivation? With your cultivation at the Void Refining Stage, I happen to have some things suitable for you to take. Take them all!"
As Qing Yuanzi spoke, he flicked his sleeves and four jade bottles appeared in front of him, floating up and down.
He first picked up one of the green jade bottles and said, "This contains a bottle of dark essence. This is a secret medicine of the Changyuan clan. It is extremely effective in breaking through the bottleneck of the late stage of refining emptiness!"
"This bottle alone can increase your chance of breakthrough by 30%!" Qing Yuanzi said with a smile.
Ye Changsheng was shocked when he heard this. If something could increase the chance by 30%, then the value of this dark essence would be inestimable!
If it is put on any auction, it can easily be sold for more than 100 million spirit stones.
Qing Yuanzi was indeed generous. This bottle of dark essence alone was equivalent to a golden thunder bamboo.
Ye Changsheng's gaze turned to the other jade bottles.
Grabbing one of the white jade bottles, Qing Yuanzi said, "This is the Yuan Refining Pill, which can increase the mana of cultivators in the late stage of the Void Refining Realm, and even has a certain effect on cultivators in the early stage of the Fusion Realm!"
"This is also the elixir that I took before. I even relied on this elixir to break through the middle stage of the Void Refining Realm. In other words, this elixir is also useful for breaking through the bottleneck of the middle stage of the Void Refining Realm!" Qing Yuanzi introduced with a smile.
Then, he picked up the remaining two jade bottles and said, "These two jade bottles contain the Heavenly Fire Pill and the Spiritual Cloud Pill, both of which are useful pills for cultivators in the late stage of Refining Void!"
"I see that although you are an early cultivator, your magical power is far beyond that of cultivators of the same level. When you advance to the middle stage of the Void Refining Realm, you can directly take these two kinds of elixirs!"
"Thank you for the gift, senior. I will definitely live up to your trust!" Ye Changsheng said as he quickly took the four jade bottles.
With Qing Yuanzi's move, he no longer lacked resources when he cultivated all the way to the peak of the Refined Void Realm. This was truly a great gift.
Seeing Ye Changsheng accept these resources, Qing Yuanzi chuckled and suddenly asked, "By the way, since you have the Golden Thunder Bamboo magic weapon, you should have obtained a lot of Golden Thunder Bamboo leaves back then."
"I do have some golden thunder bamboo leaves on me. This thing is very strange. It looks like neither gold nor wood. I have never found any use for it, but it doesn't look like an ordinary thing either, so I put them all away properly." Ye Changsheng said immediately with an idea in his mind.
"Okay! Okay! Are you willing to make a deal with me for these golden thunder bamboo leaves?" the old man asked with a hint of joy in his eyes.
"The resources that you gave me just now are more than the price of a Golden Thunder Bamboo. I hope you won't mention the transaction. I will just give you these leaves!"
"But, please help me, senior. What are these leaves used for? I'm very curious!" Ye Changsheng asked with a hint of curiosity on his face.
Qing Yuanzi chuckled upon hearing this and said, "Few people in the human race know about this, but in the Chang Yuan clan it is known to everyone, so it's okay to tell you."
"These Golden Thunder Bamboo leaves have two uses. One is to refine a kind of divine thunder called Golden Gang Demon-Exterminating Thunder. When it comes to dealing with monsters, its power is even greater than that of the Divine Thunder that Exorcises Evil."
"When you have to deal with the extraterritorial demons in the future, you will know how important this golden demon-killing thunder is!"
"Another use is that these bamboo leaves can be consumed by some spirit insects, which have a high chance of causing mutations. Of course, this requires swallowing a considerable amount of Golden Thunder Bamboo leaves."
As Qing Yuanzi spoke, a light flashed on his hand, and he said, "Since we're talking about this, I'll also give you the method for refining the Golden Gang Demon-Slaying Thunder!"
As he spoke, he handed over a green jade slip.
The old man knew that Ye Changsheng would most likely keep some golden thunder bamboo leaves for him, but he didn't care about it as he wouldn't need many golden thunder bamboo leaves in a short period of time.
It will be enough as long as I can cope with the next heavenly tribulation.
With this thing, you don't have to worry about the threat of extraterritorial demons.
Ye Changsheng took the jade slip and a hint of joy flashed across his face.
The demons from outside the realm are a huge threat. They are invisible and colorless, like the demons in one’s heart, but they are a hundred times more powerful than the demons in one’s heart.
They always like to appear when one is undergoing a tribulation. If the cultivator fails to resist, their physical body will collapse, their spirit and soul will be polluted, and they will become a member of the demons.
With the method of refining the Golden Gang Demon-Slaying Thunder, there will be an additional means to deal with extraterritorial demons or demon cultivators in the future.
After taking the jade slip, Ye Changsheng flicked the storage bracelet with one hand, and suddenly a green light flashed, and two light green wooden boxes appeared in his hand.
Then he shook his wrist and threw the wooden box to the other side.
The old man did not move his hands or feet, but a strange light flashed in his eyes. As the two wooden boxes arrived in front of him, they strangely stopped in mid-air.
Then the lid of the box opened by itself in the white light with two "pop" sounds, revealing piles of golden bamboo leaves inside that looked as if they were made of pure gold.
"Yes, it is indeed the leaves of Golden Thunder Bamboo." After the old man glanced at the box, he instantly identified the real one and a look of satisfaction appeared on his face.
He shook his sleeves, and the lids of the two wooden boxes closed again, and disappeared out of thin air.
After getting the Golden Thunder Bamboo and its leaves, the old man was in a good mood for a while. He said to Ye Changsheng with a smile: "Although this place is not suitable for you to live here for a long time, it is not a problem for you to stay for a while!"
"Why don't you stay here for a few days, my friend? I have many things I want to discuss with you!"
Qing Yuanzi spoke politely, but Ye Changsheng knew that the old man was in a good mood and wanted to give him some benefits and some advice.
The guidance of a Mahayana cultivator was something he had been looking for for a long time. Ye Changsheng immediately nodded with a smile on his face and said, "I just want to listen to your teachings, senior!"
Qing Yuanzi chuckled twice when he heard this, and suddenly clapped his hands.
Just as the applause died down, a white light flashed outside the side door of the hall, and a translucent white shadow appeared from the void.
"Yingnu, take Fellow Daoist Ye to the room I specially use to entertain guests to have some rest. Just satisfy any needs he has." The old man instructed Baiying.
"Yes, master!" Bai Ying bowed slightly and replied with extreme respect.
Ye Changsheng swept his spiritual sense over the white shadow and raised his eyebrows slightly. The aura of the white shadow was already at the late stage of the Void Refinement Realm.
Ye Changsheng saluted Qing Yuanzi, and then followed the white shadow named Yingnu to leave the hall. After passing through several passages and side halls, he was brought to a courtyard.
This courtyard consists of more than ten stone houses of varying sizes.
Although it cannot be said to be exquisite and gorgeous, it looks clean and tidy.
The white shadow pointed at the courtyard and said, "Fellow Daoist, please rest here. Also, I advise you not to wander around here. If you want to find me, just call me."
After Bai Ying finished speaking, his figure flashed and disappeared mysteriously.
Ye Changsheng smiled faintly, walked into the yard, and went into a house to rest.
A day later, Qing Yuanzi invited him over, and taking the opportunity of the conversation, he inadvertently gave him some pointers on several of his problems in cultivation, which immediately benefited Ye Changsheng a lot.
This went on for three days, and every day Qing Yuanzi would invite him over for some pointers and talk with him for several hours.
In just a few days, Ye Changsheng's cultivation improved a lot, and his face was shining, obviously he had gained a lot of benefits.
After that, Qing Yuanzi's frequency of guidance became less frequent. He would only call Ye Changsheng over for a discussion every two or three days.
This went on for half a month. When Qing Yuanzi called Ye Changsheng over again, he did not mention anything about giving him advice.
"Young Master Ye, you probably don't have any plans to stay here forever, right?" Qing Yuanzi asked kindly.
"The yin energy here is too strong, which is not conducive to the practice of the younger generation. I naturally don't want to stay here for a long time. It's a pity that it is quite difficult to get out!" Ye Changsheng said with a sigh.
"How difficult is that? I can personally send Young Friend Ye out!" Qing Yuanzi stroked his long beard and said with a smile.
"Thank you very much, senior!" Ye Changsheng immediately thanked with a smile on his face.
"Don't remember to thank me yet. What I do is not free. I have to make another deal with you." The old man said with narrowed eyes.
"Senior, please speak!"
"My friend, are you interested in the Styx Divine Milk?" the old man asked in a serious voice.
"The divine milk is such a precious thing, I definitely want it!" Ye Changsheng said without hesitation.
"That's easy. I told you before that I can't leave . But there are some things that are very important to me that can only be found in the outside world."
"As long as you help me collect them outside and send them to me within a thousand years, I will exchange them with you for a bottle of Styx Divine Milk. What do you think of this deal, young man?" asked the old man.
"Senior, could you please let me take a look at what I need to collect first?" Ye Changsheng asked after a moment of hesitation.
Seeing his cautious attitude, the old man showed satisfaction on his face.
He shook his sleeves and a green jade slip flew out.
Ye Changsheng grabbed the jade slip, looked at it for a while, shook his head and said: "Senior, although the contents of your jade slip are not much, I only know or have heard of one tenth or one twelveth of it."
"But even among those we know, they are all extremely rare and precious. Without some luck, you won't even have the fortune to see them once."
"The Styx Divine Milk is not a simple thing. Don't underestimate it, my friend Ye. And you don't need to find all the things on the list. As long as you can find two-thirds of them, I will exchange the Divine Milk with you." The old man said calmly.
"Two thirds? If that's the case, then there's hope of achieving it!" Ye Changsheng thought about it for a moment and nodded.
"So, you agree to this deal, young man? If so, I will take your departure from the Styx as my advance payment."
Ye Changsheng chuckled upon hearing this and said, "Thank you very much, Senior!"
What he had in mind was not to exchange these precious materials just for a bottle of Styx Divine Milk. In the future, when negotiating a deal with Ming Luo , he would have to rely on Qing Yuanzi's support.
However, this is all a matter for the future. If I can advance to the fusion stage, it won’t be too late to come here and discuss with Qing Yuanzi.
