Chapter 811: Chapter 774: The First Step of a Thousand Miles (Additional Update for 6000 Monthly Votes)
“Perhaps reaching the legendary realm of being without desires and wants, one might be able to ignore Mr. Bai’s contamination,”
“But then again, if one really had no desires for anything…”
“They wouldn’t persistently demand [Real] either.”
Li Fan shook his head slightly, casting aside such impractical thoughts.
He tapped his index finger lightly, fixing the Dissociation Disc in the air, and then took out eight shining white crystals from his Storage Ring.
“In a critical mont, wanting to attract the attention of the Tianxuan Mirror by infusing the Array Technique into the Dissociation Disc will certainly not afford the luxury of ti to do so leisurely. Preparation in advance is necessary.”
...
With that in mind, Li Fan’s eyes narrowed slightly as he began to inject the information of the [Great Array of Life-Death Reversal] into each of the eight gleaming crystals.
These crystals, similar in function to the Array Crown, were known as Array Crystals. They could record and preserve Array Techniques, but unlike Array Crowns that could be used repeatedly, Array Crystals were single-use only.
Each Array Crystal was inscribed with a part of an Array Technique. Then, Li Fan manipulated them to hover around the Dissociation Disc.
“With just a thought from , these Array Crystals will simultaneously burst open and inject the Array Technique information into the Dissociation Disc,” he said.
Li Fan observed the eight flickering white crystals and laid down another Array to bind them, to prevent any accidents.
Next was the [Tian Xuan Soul Locking Array].
After completing these repetitive actions, the Dissociation Disc, now shrouded in the center by sixteen shining crystals, was no longer visible in its original form.
Li Fan carefully stored it in a blank Storage Ring.
“It’s still uncertain whether the Tianxuan Secondary Life Entity is really still connected to the Tianxuan Mirror. This is just a backup asure.”
“I must make full preparations and give it my best effort.”
Having left the secret room, Li Fan first headed to Thousand Miles Hall in Tian Quan City.
The place was deserted, even the signboard was hanging crookedly, and Jiao Xiuyuan hadn’t co out to deal with it.
“I had heard that Thousand Miles Hall’s business had plumted; it is indeed the case,” Li Fan thought to himself as he stepped inside.
Due to the gradual proliferation of the Tianxuan Treasure Mirror, Cultivators could conduct unobstructed transactions even if they were separated by dozens of state regions.
Transactions could happen anyti, anywhere, with almost no restrictions.
Furthermore, due to the public availability of a great deal of information, the prices of all goods were almost transparent.
For rchants like Jiao Xiuyuan, this was like being hit by a dinsion-reducing attack. Practically overnight, countless shops had vanished.
Fortunately for Jiao Xiuyuan, his business ventures were only for the sake of Cultivation. As long as he didn’t make a loss, the issues weren’t significant. Making a real profit wasn’t a life-or-death necessity for him.
But obviously, suddenly losing the basis for his Cultivation wasn’t easy for Jiao Xiuyuan to endure either.
“What should I do…”
Jiao Xiuyuan lay listlessly behind the dust-laden wooden counter, muttering under his breath.
So engrossed was he in thought, he didn’t even notice soone had walked in.
Li Fan gave a light knock.
Jiao Xiuyuan suddenly jolted upright, “A custor has co?”
He looked at Li Fan with so suspicion and disbelief on his face.
Li Fan, anwhile, was slowly scrutinizing Jiao Xiuyuan’s puppet body, making the latter feel sowhat creepy.
“You…” Jiao Xiuyuan said uncertainly.
“Fellow Daoist Jiao, I wonder if you’re willing to sell this puppet body. We can negotiate a good price,” Li Fan said with a smile.
Jiao Xiuyuan’s expression changed dramatically, he slamd the table ready to retort fiercely, but then he abruptly stopped.
He stared intently at the object Li Fan had quietly taken out in his hand.
“This is…” With his broad knowledge, he almost imdiately recognized the aura similar to that of the Tianxuan Mirror.
“Tianxuan Secondary Life Entity?” Jiao Xiuyuan was shocked.
In the entire Xuanhuang World, there were definitely no more than fifty Tianxuan Secondary Life Entities.
Each had unique functions and were essentially priceless. No cultivator would ever put them up for sale.
The data about different Tianxuan Secondary Life Entities flashed through Jiao Xiuyuan’s mind, but none matched the item before him.
Jiao Xiuyuan’s heart surged with desire; he waved his hand to close the shop door and began to treat Li Fan with utmost enthusiasm.
“No problem, no problem! Just a puppet body, that’s not an issue at all,” he declared.
“I’m just curious about what exactly is in your hand…” Jiao Xiuyuan whispered, trying to inquire.
Li Fan replied quite readily, “Tianxuan Secondary Life Entity, Terminal Disc.”
“It can shield against the perception of the Tianxuan Mirror and the Tianxuan Treasure Mirror.”
Upon hearing Li Fan’s first sentence, Jiao Xiuyuan’s eyes shone brightly.
But as soon as Li Fan uttered the second sentence, he shuddered violently.
Subconsciously glancing around, he wiped the cold sweat from his forehead.
“Is this true?”
However, he soon showed his true colors.
A glint of greed flashing in his eyes, Jiao Xiuyuan reached out to touch it.
To his surprise, Li Fan didn’t try to prevent him from touching this treasure at all.
Instead, he let him take the Terminal Disc in his hand.
“Hmm?” Jiao Xiuyuan looked at the white jade-like disc with so confusion.
He turned it over and over.
After a mont, his face showed shock.
Clenching it tightly, he looked up at Li Fan, whose expression was inscrutable.
“Fellow Daoist…”
Li Fan interrupted with a gesture, “What does Fellow Daoist Jiao think this object is worth?”
“Imasurable! The stronger the Tianxuan Mirror, the more urgently cultivators need this object, and the higher its value will be!” Jiao Xiuyuan blurted out.
“What price would Fellow Daoist like to sell it for?” Of course, Jiao Xiuyuan wouldn’t think that the other party would take out such a precious treasure just for the sake of his puppet body. He quickly asked.
But in an instant, he had already thought of a way to survive in the future.
That would be to follow a path of boutique and monopolized rchandise.
You’re saying product information is open and public, right?
If I’m the only one in the entire world who has this item, isn’t the price still completely up to to decide?
With his own shops spread across the world and unparalleled promotional capabilities.
If every fine product was sold through auction…
The scale of the business might be smaller, but the profits might not only be unaffected, they could even increase further.
Jiao Xiuyuan’s head was filled with the future.
Yet, a single sentence from Li Fan pulled him back to reality.
“Haven’t I made it very clear? A puppet body from Fellow Daoist.”
Li Fan’s indifferent words left Jiao Xiuyuan sowhat stunned.
Since doubts arose.
“Could it be that I’ve made a mistake? Is this thing actually a fake?”
Jiao Xiuyuan quietly observed the Terminal Disc in his hand again.
“Fellow Daoist Jiao need not worry, the effects of this item are absolutely without issue.”
“Therefore, my request might be a bit special,” Li Fan said in a ghostly tone.
Jiao Xiuyuan’s face showed alternating expressions of shadow and light.
But as Li Fan continued to transmit his voice, Jiao Xiuyuan beca sowhat astonished.
And then he nodded repeatedly.
Within the Thousand Miles Hall, the two talked for quite so ti.
Afterward, Li Fan didn’t take back the Terminal Disc and quietly left.
He also didn’t take the puppet body with him.
