Chapter 64: Chapter 62: Compensation: Foundation Establishnt Spiritual Object—Tongbi Talisman Ginseng
Most of the things here had also turned to ash, but so of the Secret Manuals were preserved.
Xiao Chen casually opened a booklet with pages made of Gold. It was a Profound-level Cultivation Technique.
anwhile, Lin Ping’an found five Purple Gold Bamboo Scrolls, which surprisingly recorded five top-tier Yellow-level Techniques.
The two of them quickly searched the entire study.
Lin Ping’an also discovered two well-preserved manuals for Profound-level Magic.
Xiao Chen didn’t find any new magic, but he did find a special Transmission Jade Scroll.
The Jade Scroll had a Restriction on it, allowing one to only view the general outline at the beginning.
He placed it against his forehead and infused it with Magical Power, and was imdiately shocked to find that it was an Earth-level Qin Inference Skill.
When Lin Ping’an, who was standing to the side, saw the Jade Scroll, his eyes imdiately went wide.
After he finished reading the outline, he was so eager he wanted to begin its Refinent right then and there, break the Restriction, and obtain the complete inheritance.
But he managed to calm himself down. Clutching the Jade Scroll tightly, he looked at Xiao Chen. "Junior Brother, I won’t hide it from you. This inheritance is extrely important to ."
"How about we make a trade? All the other manuals here can be yours, and you give this inheritance to ."
"I’ll even add an extra thousand Spirit Stones as compensation."
Xiao Chen glanced at the Purple Gold Bamboo Scrolls and was instantly drawn to the Five Elents Magic within.
After realizing that the Profound Fire Crow was inconvenient to use, he had been in desperate need of suitable magic.
Not only were these five spells all Yellow-level Techniques, but they were also among the very best of them.
This was a godsend.
However, even though he felt the deal was feasible, on the surface, choosing the Yellow-level Techniques seed like a huge loss.
He could definitely ask for more compensation.
So Xiao Chen shook his head. "Lin, all that’s left here is one Profound-level Cultivation Technique, two Profound-level Magic manuals, and five Yellow-level Techniques. I’m clearly getting the short end of the stick."
"This Cultivation Technique is basically useless to , and the magic isn’t high-level either."
"Trading an Earth-level inheritance for just a thousand Spirit Stones... isn’t that a little too cheap?"
Hearing this, Lin Ping’an blushed slightly.
He looked at the manuals and felt that his offer was indeed unreasonable, but he was also reluctant to add too much more to the deal.
So he rummaged through his Storage Bag and took out a fiery red mirror. "Alright, Junior Brother. I’m willing to add a Middle Grade Magical Artifact, this Fla Mirror."
Xiao Chen retorted, "What if I offered you those sa terms? Would you give the inheritance to , Senior Brother?"
"Even though I’m not interested in divination, I’m sure soone who knows its value would pay a high price for it."
Lin Ping’an imdiately grew anxious. He gritted his teeth and took out a storage box.
Then, looking pained to part with it, he opened it. "Junior Brother, what are you saying? I still have sothing else to offer. I heard you have a Wood Spirit Root. This item is perfect for you."
Inside the storage box was a Spirit dicine that looked like a ginseng root.
Its entire body was a vibrant green, like a jade carving.
A snow-white pattern was contained within it, as if it had naturally ford a talisman rune.
This was the top-tier, Tier One Wood Elent Spiritual Object—the Tongbi Talisman Ginseng.
Legend had it that this ginseng was not only extrely rare but also took a hundred years to sprout, two hundred years to grow, and three hundred years to form its rune, for a total of six hundred years to mature.
For all Wood Spirit Root Cultivators, it was a supre tonic, capable of boosting their Cultivation and strengthening their constitution.
Furthermore, regardless of their Spiritual Root, any Cultivator who consud the Tongbi Talisman Ginseng for the first ti would have their lifespan extended.
Those below the Golden Core realm could gain three to five years of life, and even those who had ford a Golden Core could extend their lives by one to six months.
One could say that even for many Foundation Establishnt Cultivators, this was an exceptionally rare treasure.
Fearing Xiao Chen wouldn’t recognize it, Lin Ping’an ticulously explained the benefits of the Tongbi Talisman Ginseng.
Finally, he proposed, "Junior Brother Xiao, I’ll add this to the deal. This can also be used as a Foundation Establishnt Spiritual Object."
"Junior Brother, you are exceptionally talented, but your Spiritual Root is a bit lacking, so the bottleneck you’ll face during Foundation Establishnt will be difficult."
"This Foundation Establishnt Spiritual Object is perfect for you. As long as you can gather all Five Elents Spiritual Objects, achieving Foundation Establishnt will be a breeze."
In the end, to get Xiao Chen to agree to the trade, Lin Ping’an even started making grand promises.
He hoped to use the prospect of Celestial Dao Foundation Establishnt to inflate the value of the Tongbi Talisman Ginseng.
Xiao Chen watched Lin Ping’an with a calm gaze.
This made Lin Ping’an feel a bit unnerved. "Ahem, although Foundation Establishnt Spiritual Objects are indeed hard to collect, you already have one now, don’t you?"
"Junior Brother, you’re blessed by fortune. I’m sure collecting the rest will be smooth sailing."
In truth, the value of all these items was still a little less than that of the rare, Earth-level divination inheritance.
However, Xiao Chen was also keen on the Five Elents Magic. Plus, with this Wood Elent Foundation Establishnt Spiritual Object in hand, he would be one step closer to Celestial Dao Foundation Establishnt, giving him a genuine glimr of hope.
So he nodded. "Then I’ll take your auspicious words to heart, Senior Brother, and strive to achieve Celestial Dao Foundation Establishnt soon."
Lin Ping’an was overjoyed at his words. "It’s a deal!"
He imdiately counted out nine hundred Spirit Stones and one hundred Fire Crystals to seal the exchange.
Then, without even bothering to check the other areas, he sat down on the spot and prepared for the Refinent of the Jade Scroll.
Xiao Chen put away the items and wanted to explore the other areas. "Lin, aren’t you being a bit too hasty? We can go treasure hunting first. It won’t be too late to cultivate when we get back."
But Lin Ping’an couldn’t wait any longer and refused decisively. "You go ahead, Junior Brother. I’ve already gotten what I wanted. Whatever else is here, it’s all yours."
He had a very clear line of thinking.
Judging by the Everlasting Lamp, this place had existed for a very long ti.
Therefore, aside from these gold and jade items that were well-preserved, there couldn’t possibly be anything else of value left.
Besides, relying on his divination, Lin Ping’an wasn’t short on ordinary wealth. He had obtained the opportunity he ca for on this trip and was truly content.
’This is an Earth-level inheritance of the divinatory arts! You can’t find this kind of thing anywhere else. It’s super rare.’
’I’ve made a killing this ti!’
After Xiao Chen left the study, the corners of his mouth finally couldn’t help but curl upward.
’This trip into the palace not only solved my lack of magic, but I also obtained a Wood Elent Foundation Establishnt Spiritual Object.’
’I’ve made a killing this ti!’
’And now, I’m only missing the tal and Earth Elent Spiritual Objects to attempt Celestial Dao Foundation Establishnt.’
To be honest, at first, Xiao Chen hadn’t held much hope for achieving Celestial Dao Foundation Establishnt himself; it was just a passing thought.
But looking at the current situation, it no longer seed impossible.
After all, he had already collected half of the required Foundation Establishnt Spiritual Objects.
He spent six hours ticulously searching the entire palace, passing through the Spirit dicine Garden and the Spirit Beast Cages, and even inspecting every corner of the kitchen and woodshed.
To his regret, Xiao Chen discovered that there was truly nothing left.
Even the Spirit dicine Garden, due to the imnse passage of ti, was overgrown with dead weeds, without a single trace of any Spirit dicine.
Only in a fire-room in the southern corner did Xiao Chen find several boxes of Fire Crystals piled together.
It seed they had been mined, then specially cleaned and collected to be used as so kind of raw material.
’Good. This trip wasn’t a total waste.’
Xiao Chen imdiately put all these Fire Crystals into his Storage Bag.
He even went back and searched the nearby rooms again.
In one of the side rooms, he indeed found another small box hidden under a bed, which also contained a case of Fire Crystals.
In total, there were a full one thousand one hundred Fire Crystals.
Such a large quantity completely filled his Storage Bag.
Fortunately, he had another Storage Bag on him, the one he had taken from Scarface.
It was about a foot longer than his original one, providing enough space to store all the Fire Crystals.
’Lin Ping’an himself was unwilling to search, so it was only natural that all these things belonged to
now.’
After checking the remaining rooms and confirming he hadn’t missed anything, Xiao Chen returned to the study.
As soon as he entered, he saw Lin Ping’an beaming, looking as if he had just found a pile of money.
It seed he was very satisfied with the contents of the inheritance.
Seeing Xiao Chen enter, Lin Ping’an proactively stood up to greet him. "Junior Brother Xiao, you’re back. I really have to thank you for this ti. You’re a true friend."
"You probably haven’t had ti for Body Tempering yet, have you? On my way over here, I discovered a special Fla Lake. The effects of Body Tempering in there should be even better."
"Co on, I’ll take you there."
