Chapter 61 His Dao Heart is Shattering
Zhong Qi: Of course, I've left some room for things, such as for Ji Se and Cheng Nan, yourself, or others.
Tu Shan: Why do you need five by yourself?
Zhong Qi: Give them away!
Tu Shan: You have friends?
Zhong Qi: Are you being polite?
Zhong Qi certainly wasn't doing this to give away; it was for his grand scheme of acquiring ten thousand mid-grade spirit stones.
If he were to produce five top-grade Foundation Establishment Pills, even the stingy sect leader would waver.
Geng Yu: Little mute, are you telling the truth?
Geng Yu: Little mute, you're so kind. Did you know I'm about to reach the Foundation Establishment stage?
Geng Yu: Where are you? I need you. Where are you now? I'm coming to find you.
Tu Shan, seeing Geng Yu's words, was speechless and replied: "Do you have spirit stones? Then come on. One stone costs ten thousand low-grade spirit stones."
Geng Yu: I have it. Where are you? I'm coming right now.
Tu Shan: You and Zhong Qi discuss it, and get back to me when you've made up your minds.
Upon seeing Tu Shan's reply, Geng Yu flew off to find Zhong Qi.
"Zhong Qi, Zhong Qi, your good friend Geng Yu is looking for you! Come out quickly!"
Zhong Qi: "Shut up!"
Geng Yu felt wronged and wanted to speak out.
"No, come with me!"
Geng Yu grabbed Zhong Qi's arm and dragged him toward Zhong Qi's room.
Zhong Qi said helplessly, "Don't get agitated. I know what you're trying to say. We have a business deal to do right now."
Geng Yu asked in confusion, "You know? What kind of business are you going to do?"
Zhong Qi: "I've decided to buy five, have your master pay for them, and then have him give them to my master. That way, we'll get our commission of ten thousand mid-grade spirit stones much faster."
Geng Yu clapped his hands and laughed loudly, "How come I didn't think of that? Since the little mute can refine top-grade Foundation Establishment Pills, there must be a lot of high-grade ones too. Let's take them and talk to that old geezer to give him a good whack."
Zhong Qi smiled and nodded, a slight upturn at the corners of his mouth: "Let's find out the price first, then we can act as a middleman to make a profit."
Geng Yu: "Yes, yes, we also need to find out the quantity."
Zhong Qi took out his communication jade: How many top-grade Foundation Establishment Pills and how many high-grade Foundation Establishment Pills do you have that you can sell to us?
This was a question that not only Zhong Qi could think of, but Jian Wu, a veteran cultivator, had already asked Cheng Nan about it.
A total of 1,265 high-grade Foundation Establishment Pills and 15 top-grade Foundation Establishment Pills were refined.
Five each from Lingyun Sect and Tianyi Sword Sect.
Five hundred each of the superior Foundation Establishment Pills, and the remaining two hundred and sixty-five to the Spirit Treasure Pavilion.
Tu Shan sent messages to Zhong Qi and Cheng Nan respectively.
"Five top-grade Foundation Establishment Pills, 10,000 each; five hundred high-grade Foundation Establishment Pills, 1,000 each."
Jian Wu: ...Five hundred? Is this even human?
They've only been out of the secret realm for a month, not ten years, right?
He knew that the two from Lingyun Sect had a better relationship than his disciple and that rogue cultivator, so wouldn't they have given him more?
Even if we count them as the same, that would be ten top-grade and a thousand high-grade.
You should always keep some for yourself.
Jian Wu looked at his disciple, whose neck was still red. How could there be such a big difference between people?
That one isn't human; this one is too human.
I wonder if that rogue cultivator still accepts masters.
Jian Wu: "Yes, the price is acceptable. A third-grade high-quality item sells for 1,500 outside, so we'll still make a profit. Let's arrange a time and place to trade."
Tu Shan was frantically calculating the profits. If this deal went through, he would get 1.1 million low-grade spirit stones.
Thinking of this, she couldn't help but chuckle!
This also gives me more motivation to refine elixirs.
Send the address and add a note: I suggest you bring more spirit stones, and there are other pills you can buy.
Lingyun Sect.
Zhong Qi and Geng Yu found Mu Sen, who had just been arguing with Zhou Yuntian. After explaining the situation to him, Mu Sen finally lost his temper.
Jian Wuhui was good at calculations, but he was even better at them.
The stingier a person is, the more calculating they are.
Considering that this wave involved 1.1 million low-grade spirit stones, an alchemist could never refine only one type of pill.
It's only been a month, and this is only a third-tier pill.
If it were a fourth-tier, fifth-tier, ..., eighth-tier spirit stone, would his one million high-grade spirit stones be far away?
Mu Sen and Zhou Yuntian's previous squabbles were just minor squabbles, but now, although the facts aren't immediately apparent, they're predictable.
"Uncle-Master, think about it, a mid-grade Foundation Establishment Pill costs 1,500 low-grade spirit stones on the market. If we buy it for 1,000 and sell it for 1,200, we can still make a profit. If we auction off a top-grade Foundation Establishment Pill, wouldn't that be even more profitable?"
You know my master; he'd definitely be tempted if he saw us making spirit stones.
Although I don't earn much, I'll come more often.
Zhong Qi felt that he had changed; he would never have said or thought so much before.
His resolve to follow the Dao is crumbling.
Before, all I wanted to do was cultivate; now, all I want to do is earn spirit stones.
But aren't spirit stones appealing?
With enough spirit stones, he could buy a sixth-tier spirit weapon, or even a seventh or eighth-tier one.
It's not that he's changed; it's just that he didn't have enough spirit stones before.
Mu Sen kept nodding; the little brat was right.
Zhong Qi continued to tempt him, "I suggest that you come with us, Master Uncle. Geng Yu and I can build our foundations outside while you protect us. We can also check if that person's full furnace is real."
It has to be said, Mu Sen was tempted.
“Alright, I’ll go with you. I’ll advance the spirit stones first. You can sell them later. After you’ve sold them, you can return the principal to me. I’ll take 40% of the profits, and you two can each take 30%. Don’t say I’m treating you unfairly.”
Zhong Qi realized that he would have to give 20% to Tu Shan, leaving him and Geng Yu with only 20%.
But they didn't invest any capital, so even if they take 20%, it's still free money.
High-grade pills can be sold even with eyes closed in the sect.
"Okay, I'll listen to my senior master."
"Okay, I'll listen to Master."
Musen: Pretending to be so innocent, everyone knows who you are.
"Let's go now."
Musen grabbed one in each hand and threw them onto his greatsword.
Meanwhile, Jian Wu and Cheng Nan also set off.
After sending the address, Tu Shan didn't check the communication jade again; take it or leave it.
Continue refining the elixir.
It's still a fourth-tier Rejuvenation Pill.
Three hours later, a medicinal fragrance wafted out.
Jian Wu, who had just arrived, greeted Mu Sen, who had been waiting for some time.
Mu Sen's cultivation level was higher than his, and he was one of only two eighth-order alchemists on the Misty Continent, so he was worthy of respect.
"This is a fourth-grade Rejuvenation Pill, at least a high-grade fourth-grade pill. I just don't know if it's as full as you say."
"Master, are you telling the truth? This is a high-grade fourth-tier item?"
Mu Sen glanced at Geng Yu; this disciple was no longer acceptable.
Is it really necessary to ask such a simple question?
"Cough cough, Master, it's not that I don't believe you, it's just that I didn't expect that the little mute could already refine fourth-grade high-quality pills."
Mu Sen: "Little mute?"
"No, she's not talkative. When we first met, she never spoke, so I thought she was mute, so..."
Zhong Qi: Are you sure you don't like to talk?
Cheng Nan: I just don't like talking to you.
Musen: What are you talking about with people you don't know well? Are you going to curse God with people you know well?
Jian Wu: I never expected Master Mu's disciple to be so dim-witted.
Zhong Qi took out the communication jade and left a message for Tu Shan.
Tu Shan was in better condition after this refining process; he was fully conscious.
Upon receiving Zhong Qi's message, he put away the defensive array and then fainted.
Seeing that the defensive formation had disappeared, the group did not go in immediately, but waited for Tu Shan to appear.
