Could it be that the East Sun Sect has a large amount of Purple Cloud Qi internally?
The "Thousand Cloud Sword Scripture" he cultivated, according to his physique and Qi power, suited the Chi Xiao Sword Qi. However, both Purple Cloud Qi and Jiang Xiao Qi could also be transformed into Chi Xiao Sword Qi. If he could obtain large amounts of Purple Cloud Qi from the East Sun Sect, perhaps he would no longer need to worry about these resources in the future.
While Luo Chen pondered, Deng Taiyue from the Taishan Sect below took something out.
"Seven Spirits Jade, a Fourth Order mineral, with the effect of Spirit Melt. It's suitable for making sect soul tokens, sensing the life and death of disciples and clan members."
"I wish to exchange for some resources beneficial to the Divine Soul. Is any friend interested?"
This immediately sparked interest among many people.
In general, top forces invest a lot of effort into training their disciples.
Especially those with outstanding talent, who are often lavished with resources.
If such existences fall, even Nascent Soul Stage Cultivators would feel the loss.
Therefore, top forces usually create soul tokens, soul lamps, or use various secret techniques to sense them.
The Seven Spirits Jade is one of the best materials for making soul tokens.
Not only does it have excellent sensing effects, but it also has a very low demand for Soul Blood, without damaging the Divine Soul endowment of talented disciples.
Unfortunately, over the years, the Seven Spirits Jade in the Thirty-six Realms of the Eastern Wasteland has been exhaustively mined, and few major forces still make soul tokens, having to opt for ordinary soul lamps instead.
And the soul lamp method, though common, is evidently damaging to the Divine Souls of disciples.
To keep the soul lamp alight, it requires not only a relatively large amount of Soul Blood but also periodic supplements from cultivators, making it very troublesome overall.
Now with the appearance of Seven Spirits Jade, these Nascent Soul True Masters immediately showed interest.
Elder Lu was the first to speak, "Master Taiyue, did you also extract this Seven Spirits Jade from the Mist Swamp of the Million Mountains?"
Deng Taiyue did not shy away, answering frankly, "Indeed. Ten years ago, when the demon beasts had all left their nests, I took advantage of the opportunity to enter the mountains for herb gathering. Besides the harvest of a young Demon Emperor, this Seven Spirits Jade was the greatest find. Unfortunately, there isn't much, only enough to make about a hundred soul tokens."
As he said this, he patted his storage bag, indicating that apart from the piece in his hand, there were still some remnants.
Hearing the number "about a hundred," others were slightly disappointed.
Their ancient sects have disciples numbering in the thousands, if not tens of thousands among their core members, so a mere hundred pieces are far from sufficient.
Moreover, what Deng Taiyue sought was resources beneficial to the Divine Soul!
Such treasures, if possessed by anyone, why would they exchange them for Seven Spirits Jade, which only works for lower-order cultivators?
For a moment, the interest of the previously intrigued True Masters waned, and they fell silent.
It was Mr. Yao, who had been silent for a long while, who showed some interest.
The Seven Cave Mountain has been in decline for a long time, with not many disciples, and barely any outstanding ones.
If this batch of Seven Spirits Jade were taken back, it would suffice for this generation.
"Ahem!"
After a light cough that drew everyone's attention, Mr. Yao slowly stated, "Deng Taiyue, how about selling this batch of Seven Spirits Jade to me?"
Though Deng Taiyue was used to being addressed directly, he still frowned in public.
"Mr. Yao, what would you offer in exchange?"
Without hesitation, Mr. Yao replied, "I have researched that fragmented Ti Hu Pill formula for you for a long time. If truly refined, it would surpass any elixir beneficial to the Divine Soul by millions."
Hearing this, Deng Taiyue frowned even more.
If it's only refined—that means it hasn't been refined yet—doesn't that mean it's still an empty promise?
Luo Chen blinked, seeing Elder Lu beside him with a grin as if watching a good show, he couldn't help but ask via transmission, "What exactly is a Ti Hu Pill?"
Elder Lu paused, instinctively retorting, "The Alchemy Sect doesn't know about the Ti Hu Pill?"
Quickly, he remembered that Luo Chen hadn't been cultivating for more than three hundred years, so not knowing some things was normal.
He immediately explained, "The Ti Hu Pill is a pill formula that an ancient Qi refiner stumbled upon. Though it is Fourth Order, it is known as a Pseudo Fifth-Order Divine Pill. Its effect aids Nascent Soul Stage Cultivators in achieving sudden enlightenment, allowing for early comprehension of the Law's True Intent."
"Unfortunately, such a divine pill invites jealousy from the heavens. The ancient Qi refiner ascended after using the pill to advance to Divine Transformation. However, the remaining pill formula was fought over and destroyed by various forces, leaving it fragmented."
"Over thousands of years, despite efforts from Eastern Wasteland Cultivators to piece it together, only a partial formula, about fifty to sixty percent, has been reconstructed, still missing the most crucial main ingredient."
"After expending enormous costs to research and attempt refinement, success remained elusive, and gradually, no one pursued the formula anymore."
"I heard that Alchemy Saint Chu Yan was once interested in this fragmented formula and researched it for many years. Unfortunately, no results came before she left for Zhongzhou, and her research outcome is unknown."
"I didn't expect Master Taiyue to still be so persistent and painstakingly seek someone to refine this pill."
As he spoke, Elder Lu suddenly recalled something.
"Could the Alchemy Sect perhaps restore this formula?"
Luo Chen chuckled awkwardly.
He waved his hand, "If even the Alchemy Saint hasn't yielded results, how could our sect possess such capabilities? Yet..."
Luo Chen's eyes narrowed slightly, focusing on that Seven Spirits Jade.
This item was one of the most suitable materials for refining the Heart Inquiry Mirror!
He spoke up.
"Master Taiyue, how about selling this item to me?"
