"How much?" Yang Fei thought he had misheard and looked at Hai Mo to ask.

Hai Mo could tell from Yang Fei's tone and his shocked expression that the number he had just mentioned had frightened him.

But his father had instructed that it must be this price.

And according to the market value in the cultivation world, this price was already considered quite fair for loose cultivators and small families and sects who urgently needed these elixirs.

So Hai Mo, meeting Yang Fei's gaze, said, "Three hundred thousand spirit stones."

Yang Fei glanced at Qin Yanyang and asked, "How many spirit stones does White Jade City manage to mine in a day?"

Qin Yanyang replied, "Now, with more than two thousand people digging and mining, each averaging around thirty spirit stones, we can extract about sixty thousand spirit stones."

Hearing Qin Yanyang's words, both Hai Mo and Yan Wei couldn't help but show an expression of shock.

Although spirit stones are the most common cultivation resource in the cultivation world, even for some top-grade spirit ore, expecting each miner to successfully dig out more than thirty spirit stones a day is simply wishful thinking.

It's important to know that spirit ore doesn't mean every strike will yield a spirit stone.

The vast majority of miners often cannot extract even a decent spirit stone in a day.

Yet here was this woman claiming that their miners could extract an average of thirty spirit stones each day.

What kind of spirit ore resource was this, with such a high spirit stone content?

Lu Chen and Gan Qian had a certain understanding of this, so they weren't surprised at all.

While Hai Mo and Yan Wei were shocked, they couldn't help but look at their senior brothers, Lu Chen and Gan Qian, who both nodded, indicating that Qin Yanyang was not lying.

Lu Chen even twitched his mouth, wanting to say that the spirit stones mined from White Jade City were mostly mid-grade and top-grade spirit stones, and occasionally a top-grade purple spirit crystal could be found.

But he ultimately held back from saying it.

If he said it, what if Hai Mo and Yan Wei decided to raise the price on the spot?

What would Yang Fei think of him then?

Of course, if he didn't say it, the sect leaders might also have an opinion of him once they found out.

However, regarding this spirit mine, neither he nor Gan Qian hid anything from the sect; the sect just didn't anticipate the mine had such a rich reserve of spirit stones, so it wasn't their fault.

Moreover, he had brought back the genetic liquid medicine for them, which he felt was more beneficial for the Lingxiao Sect seniors, establishing a close cooperation with Yang Fei for a steady supply of genetic liquid medicine, far more cost-effective than earning spirit stones from Yang Fei.

Qin Yanyang knew that Yang Fei would certainly buy these elixirs. Thinking of the price Hai Mo mentioned earlier, she asked, "What do the lower-grade spirit stones you mentioned look like? Let me see them first."

Hai Mo immediately took out a few lower-grade spirit stones.

These lower-grade spirit stones were already sufficient for Qi Refining cultivators to use for cultivation, and even the majority of Foundation Establishment cultivators mostly used such spirit stones to assist in cultivation and speed up the process, so Hai Mo always carried some with him.

When Yang Fei and Qin Yanyang saw the spirit stones Hai Mo took out, they were grayish-white, and the spiritual energy emitted wasn't very intense, seeming to contain a lot of impurities, and they were especially just the size of a pinky finger, so they understood instantly.

Qin Yanyang took out a handful of spirit stones from her storage bag.

There were seven or eight in total, and each spirit stone was the size of a quail egg, with some even larger.

But compared to the spirit stones Hai Mo took out, just the color alone seemed much purer, especially the spiritual power they emitted, which was countless times stronger.

Hai Mo and Yan Wei, who came from distinguished backgrounds, had naturally seen such spirit stones before, and they both carried some of this grade with them.

Yet seeing Qin Yanyang casually reveal such a large handful of top-grade spirit stones still surprised them.

Yan Wei couldn't help but ask, "Are these spirit stones all mined from the Spiritual Ore Mountain Range?"

Qin Yanyang nodded, "Of course."

Seeing their expressions, she guessed that even these two well-connected disciples from the Lingxiao Sect were taken aback by the White Jade City spirit mine, which showed just how important White Jade City was.

"How many lower-grade spirit stones might one of my spirit stones be worth?" Qin Yanyang asked.

Hai Mo glanced at Lu Chen and Gan Qian, thinking that their Lingxiao Sect fellow apprentices likely told these Earth cultivators some basic information about the Southern Domain cultivation world, so he didn't dare speak nonsense and honestly replied, "Your spirit stone is top-grade, and each top-grade spirit stone can be exchanged for a hundred mid-grade spirit stones, and each mid-grade spirit stone can then be converted to a hundred lower-grade spirit stones. So your eight top-grade spirit stones can be used as eighty thousand lower-grade spirit stones."

Qin Yanyang smiled slightly upon hearing this.

Now it was alright.

Upon first hearing the other party mention the price of three hundred thousand spirit stones, she and Yang Fei thought they had misheard and were a bit startled.

Even though they already stored a large amount of spirit stone resources with the extraction speed of White Jade City, three hundred thousand didn't seem like a substantially large amount, but it did feel a bit expensive for just a dozen elixirs.

Now that she knew the quality of the spirit stones they held was so high, with just eight equating to the eighty thousand lower-grade spirit stones the opponent mentioned, Qin Yanyang found these elixirs not expensive at all.

Simply a steal!

Yang Fei thought the same, and he chuckled, saying to Hai Mo and Yan Wei, "Hahaha, alright, it seems the Lingxiao Sect has come with enough sincerity to cooperate with us in this trade. Fine, let's trade based on this market price from now on, and happy cooperation."

Saying this, he habitually extended his hand towards Hai Mo.

Hai Mo looked at the outstretched hand, bewildered.

Only then did Yang Fei realize the other party didn't understand the handshake gesture, so he laughed, withdrew his hand, and took out a handful of top-grade spirit stones from his storage bag.

He counted out exactly twenty-two pieces, and with the eight that Qin Yanyang took out, there were thirty in total.

Qin Yanyang placed her eight in Yang Fei's hand, and Yang Fei handed them together to Hai Mo, saying, "Count them."

For a Foundation Establishment cultivator, merely scanning with divine sense was enough to confirm the thirty spirit stones.

As he took these thirty spirit stones, Hai Mo suddenly felt a bit of regret.

He realized those two Earth cultivators extracted and handed over their spirit stones with such carefree nonchalance.

It was as if they hadn't taken out top-grade spirit stones, but the most rubbish spiritual sand or the lowest-level cultivation resources.

He glanced at Yan Wei, and Yan Wei glanced back at him.

A thought simultaneously crossed both their minds.

The price was too low.

But with the other party already having paid, asking for a price increase wasn't something he could voice.

Hai Mo silently took a deep breath, put away the thirty top-grade spirit stones, and then, with a grand gesture, pushed the bottles of medicine toward Yang Fei and Qin Yanyang.

Yang Fei took the four bottles of medicine and asked, "What are the names and effects of these elixirs? Aren't you going to introduce them?"

Hai Mo promptly introduced each one.

Yang Fei sniffed each type of elixir, noting their names and effects in his mind.

Hai Mo and Yan Wei's task was to facilitate the first cooperation between the two parties, and with the transaction complete, Hai Mo said, "Since the trade is complete, we shall take our leave."

Yang Fei was taken aback and hurriedly called out, "Wait."

Hai Mo and Yan Wei tensed, nervously looking at Yang Fei and asking, "What do you want?"
