Chronicles of Ascension: The Path to Immortality

This time, the transaction with the merchants from the upper clan was indeed sold at a good price.

"Okay, these rare spiritual materials are estimated to be worth 21.3 million spiritual stones in total. Tell me what you want to exchange."

Zhang Yuhuai's fingers trembled when he heard the sky-high price of 21.3 million spiritual stones.

This is what the Zhang family of Xianmao Valley has accumulated through hard work and spent 10 years.

This is the highest value of spiritual materials sold in hundreds of years.

Of course, there is a component of luck here, that is, successfully withstanding the beast tide.

These second-level monster materials alone sold for a sky-high price of 8 million spiritual stones.

Moreover, after the beast tide, the Zhang family took advantage of the decrease in monsters in the Black Domain Forest and went deeper into the Black Domain Forest to obtain a lot of high-level resources.

It can be said that the value brought by this beast tide accounted for more than half.

If there was no beast tide, the accumulation in the clan library would not exceed 10 million spiritual stones.

With 20 million spiritual stones, more precious elixirs, talismans, formations and even exercises can be purchased.

Zhang Yuhuai suppressed his excitement as he had so much wealth at once.

"We want three sets of second-level defense formations."

In the process of defending against the beast tide last time, all defense formations except the Nine Lakes Sword Formation were destroyed.

Now there is a new first-level medium-grade spirit vein, so we need to purchase more second-level formations.

"What you want is a formation to defend the entire clan land. Only second-level medium-grade and second-level high-grade defense formations can meet the requirements. Here we can trade you two sets of second-level medium-grade defense formations and one set of second-level high-grade defense formations, which require a total of 5 million spirit stones."

"So expensive?" Zhang Yuhuai was shocked.

I didn't expect that these three formations alone would consume a quarter of the spirit stones.

"The clan land defense formation is difficult to refine, and it is particularly popular among the affiliated forces. This is already the lowest price."

"Okay... change." Zhang Yuhuai gritted his teeth and agreed to the exchange.

"Deal."

"We also need second-level talismans, with defensive and offensive attributes, and plan to purchase 50."

"You can trade them to Zhangjiaji for 10 Liujia Qimen Talismans, 10 Zhenshanhandi Talismans, 10 Shenxing Tengyun Talismans, 10 Zhanmo Shijie Talismans, and 10 Hubao Vajra Talismans, totaling 1 million spiritual stones."

50 second-level spiritual talismans for 1 million spiritual stones, an average of 20,000 spiritual stones per talisman, which is acceptable.

"Agree." Zhang Yuhuai said directly, "500 bottles of first-level high-quality elixirs with various effects."

Elixir is a consumable, so Zhang Yuhuai had to prepare more.

Qingyun Sect explicitly prohibits merchants from selling second-level elixirs, including foundation-building elixirs, to affiliated forces, so Zhangjiaji can only buy first-level elixirs.

The alchemists trained by Zhangjiaji can refine at most first-level medium-quality elixirs.

First-level medium-quality elixirs and low-quality elixirs do not need to be purchased.

There is no choice but to purchase first-grade high-quality elixirs in large quantities.

"30 bottles of Heyuan Dan, 30 bottles of Jinsui Dan, 30 bottles of Qusha Dan, 30 bottles of Zixu Dan... a total of 20 first-grade high-quality elixirs with different effects, a total of 10,000 elixirs, and a total of 12 million spiritual stones."

"It's really dark!" Zhang Yuhuai said in his heart.

The first-grade high-quality elixirs have reached 1,200 spiritual stones each.

However, there is no way, these high-grade elixirs cannot be refined by Zhangjiaji itself.

For the late stage of Qi Refining and even the foundation building, they have a significant effect and are rigidly needed.

Even if the price is expensive, you have to buy it.

"Agree to the deal." Zhang Yuhuai swallowed his saliva and said.

"There are still 3.3 million spiritual stones available for exchange." The third elder took a sip of spiritual tea and said.

"Only 3.3 million spiritual stones are left?"

Zhang Yuhuai thought it was a lot when he got 21.3 million spiritual stones just now.

But most of it was spent just to purchase some formations, talismans, and elixirs.

However, he knew there was one more thing he had to purchase - a top-grade magic weapon.

Zhangjiaji can only refine mid-grade magic weapons at best.

It is also forbidden to sell spiritual weapons to the affiliated forces of Qingyun Sect, so only top-grade magic weapons can be purchased now.

Especially in order to resist the last wave of beast tide, many magic weapons were damaged, and there are a lot of gaps in this area.

Moreover, Zhang Yuhuai also plans to cultivate more clansmen in the late stage of Qi Refining, so there must be enough magic weapon reserves.

"We need to purchase 50 more top-grade magic tools."

"So many?" The third elder was stunned, but then said: "4 million spiritual stones, there is still a gap of 700,000 spiritual stones."

"The price of top-grade magic tools has doubled compared to the last time?"

"Qingyun Sect will probably have a big move later, and the price of magic tools has already risen."

"Can the gap of 700,000 spiritual stones be made up with spiritual stones?"

"Since you sell so many spiritual materials, I will make an exception this time and make up 1 million spiritual stones. This transaction can be completed."

Zhang Yuhuai asked Zhang Yingda to collect all the existing spiritual stones in the clan treasury, and barely make up 1 million spiritual stones.

After all, in order to resist the beast tide, the clan treasury almost used up all the spiritual stones.

These spiritual stones were collected from recent taxes.

All these rare spiritual materials accumulated for 10 years, plus 1 million spiritual stones, were handed over to the third elder.

Finally, the scarce materials in Zhangjiaji were exchanged.

This exchange opportunity only comes once every ten years.

Fairy Cat Valley will rely on these exchanged resources to survive for the next ten years.

"I still have a second-level alchemy secret technique here, but it's a pity that Patriarch Zhang can't exchange it." The third elder said intentionally or unintentionally.

"Second-level alchemy secret technique?" Zhang Yuhuai was shocked, "Didn't the upper sect ban it?"

"It's only forbidden to sell second-level elixirs, but not to sell second-level alchemy secret techniques." The third elder said lightly.

In fact, the second-level alchemy secret technique is not something that ordinary alchemists can achieve.

Even an old alchemist who has been refining elixirs for sixty years may not be able to advance to the second level unless he has a large amount of second-level spiritual medicine for him to practice.

But second-level spiritual medicine is so precious that a second-level early-stage elixir takes a hundred years to mature and is extremely rare.

Unless it is a large sect like Qingyun Sect, it is absolutely impossible for ordinary affiliated forces to cultivate a second-level alchemist.

"There are three second-level elixir recipes in it, one of which is a foundation-building pill." The third elder continued.

"Foundation Building Pill?!" Zhang Yuhuai was shocked and asked immediately, "How many spiritual stones do you want?"

"Not expensive, 3 million spiritual stones."

"Indeed not expensive..." Zhang Yuhuai pondered.

"It's a pity that you Zhangjiaji can't come up with anything decent to exchange."

Zhang Yuhuai pondered for a moment and said, "I wonder if the third elder is interested in the blood cloud essence ore?"

"Blood cloud essence ore can be used to refine cloud essence. If it is added during the refining process, it can increase the power of the magic weapon by 10%. It's barely acceptable."

"I wonder how much the third elder would offer for 20,000 jin of blood cloud essence ore?"

"Blood cloud essence is rare, but it can only increase the power of the magic weapon, not the spiritual weapon. For 20,000 jin of blood cloud essence ore, it will cost 2 million spiritual stones."

"There is still a gap of 1 million spiritual stones..."

Zhang Yuhuai felt a little sorry.

After discovering the blood cloud essence spiritual mine, the Zhang clan mined it day and night, and only mined 20,000 jin so far.

I didn't expect that there was still a gap of 1 million from the exchange price.
