Chapter 283: Chapter 275: Flowers Immortal City

Translator: 549690339

Since Master Bi Shui had already started to probe.

He Song naturally wouldn’t obediently reveal everything.

After selling the Earth Spirit Elixirs, he turned around and left, heading elsewhere to buy various spirit medicine for refining Earth Spirit Elixirs.

This was what He Song should do next.

As for how Master Bi Shui would view the way he was doing things.

He Song didn’t care about his opinion.

Since you want to probe, you should be prepared for possibly losing.

As for the extra spirit stones, he would gladly accept them.

Heeding an extra fifty spirit stones for every elixir bottle.

It would be five hundred for ten bottles.

One hundred bottles would make a total of five thousand spirit stones.

He could make a clear profit of five thousand spirit stones! This was almost equivalent to He Song’s two-year annual salary.

Now, all he had to do was nod his head and take the money.

Earning spirit stones seemed to be too easy.

With this thought flashing through his mind, He Song waved his hand casually, and more than ninety jade bottles suddenly appeared on the table in front of him.

Together with the ten jade bottles that had already been taken out, there were a total of one hundred and five jade bottles.

“Fellow Taoist, please look, these are all of them.”

“These are 105 Earth Spirit Elixir bottles. Calculated at the rate of one thousand and fifty spirit stones per bottle,”

“The total would be 110,250 spirit stones.”

“Let’s round it down to an even 110,300 spirit stones.”

“I wonder what you think?”

With this reverse rounding strategy from He Song, Master Bi Shui’s cheek twitched.

However, after seeing the more than 100 Earth Spirit Elixir bottles in front of him, Master Bi Shui’s expression changed.

He became even more interested in He Song’s identity.

An ordinary Early Foundation Establishment cultivator.

How could he get so many Foundation Establishment Elixirs?

Over a hundred Earth Spirit Elixirs were worth about 100,000 spirit stones.

Could an ordinary Early Foundation Establishment cultivator afford to spend that many spirit stones casually?

Even an evil cultivator couldn’t match this.

Therefore, He Song’s identity must be extraordinary.

Either,

He was a core disciple of a Golden Elixir force, and these items were given to him by his elders, or,

He was a master of elixir refining cultivated by a Golden Elixir force, and he had refined these elixirs himself,

Or,

There was a master of elixir refining behind him who entrusted him with selling these elixirs, allowing him to bring so many Foundation Establishment Elixirs to the table during the Early Foundation Establishment stage.

Or,

In summary, He Song’s identity would be extraordinary if he could bring out so many Earth Spirit Elixirs.

No matter what kind of identity, it would be highly beneficial to get acquainted with He Song.

If He Song was really the core disciple of a Golden Elixir force and just wanted to sell these items to get some spirit stones,

Wouldn’t it be possible for He Song to come back to him when he needs spirit stones again, selling other things to get more spirit stones?

If He Song was a master of elixir refining or had the support of a master of elixir refining behind him, this time selling elixir at his place would be very profitable.

Wouldn’t he choose to sell elixir at his place again the next time he comes around?

As long as He Song came here, he would naturally find a way of making a profit from He Song.

That was also the reason why he decided to offer a generous amount of spirit stones to He Song after his subordinates had confirmed the quality of the elixirs in his possession.

Sternly scolding his subordinate was just an act to make He Song feel justified in accepting the benefits.

However ,

He didn’t expect He Song to be so shameless.

Not only would he take advantage of the situation, but he would also audaciously ask for a favor in return.

This…

Although it was only an extra fifty spirit stones, he felt like he was at a loss somehow.

But as Pavilion Master of this Subordinate Treasure Pavilion, Master Bi Shui was naturally capable of adjusting his emotions.

The thought of being on the losing end only lingered in his mind for an instant.

Then he responded with a smiling face.

An extra fifty spirit stones were nothing.

As long as He Song continued to come here, he could easily earn them back.

At this price, he would not lose money by buying these Earth Spirit Elixirs from He Song. He could just say it was like pulling teeth from a tiger’s mouth, only with a little less profit. And if it would make He Song have a better impression of him, why not?

“That’s fine, fellow Taoist. If that’s what you say, let’s make it 110,300 spirit stones. ”

“Fellow Daoist, if you have leisure time, you can come here for tea with me, and I will definitely be ready to welcome you.”

“The food in Ghost Road Immortal City is well known far and wide, so if you ever come, you’re welcome to find me.”

“Just think of it as me fulfilling my duty as the host.”

As Master Bi Shui’s voice continued to spread, He Song kept nodding his head in agreement and cooperatively said he would come often.

However, in his heart, he remained calm.

Moreover, he had already made up his mind that as soon as these spirit stones were in his possession, he would immediately leave.

It wasn’t that he was annoyed by Master Bi Shui’s words.

It was only because Master Bi Shui’s actions had made him sense a hint of danger.

When someone is overly attentive for no reason, they’re either scheming or stealing.

Master Bi Shui’s actions constantly reminded He Song of this.

It was not wise to linger here.

Master Bi Shui took He Song’s one hundred and five bottles of Earth Spirit Elixir.

Then, he handed over 110,300 spirit stones to He Song.

Once both the payment and the goods were exchanged, their transaction was complete.

Seeing this, He Song quickly excused himself.

He Song was eager to leave.

Master Bi Shui did not stop him but, when they reached the entrance of the Treasure Pavilion, he once again invited He Song to come back in the future.

Without hesitation, He Song agreed, saying they were friends, and that he would definitely visit regularly.

Afterwards, Master Bi Shui left, satisfied.

He Song, too, took his leave, transforming into a crimson tunneling light that pierced the sky.

The crimson light streaked across the sky.

Heading south, towards the Jade Flower Sect’s territory.

However, after flying tens of miles southward, he rapidly descended to the ground when there was no one around.

At the same time, He Song’s figure sank into the ground. After using his mana to cleanse himself and destroy his robe,

He Song altered his appearance and controlled his cultivation at the Qi-refining late stage.

Having done all this and making sure that no tracking mark could remain, He Song finally let out a sigh of relief.

He then headed towards the three arrays he had set up before entering the city.

Soon,

He Song’s figure appeared in an empty space.

But now, as he stood in this empty space, his figure was completely invisible to the outside world.

At this moment, he was inside the Smoke Array, with the array concealing his aura and figure.

As he arrived at the array’s location, He Song’s eyes looked at Ghost Road Immortal City from afar, but the vigilance in his heart did not fade at all.

He had left so ostentatiously,

Perhaps someone had been tailing him.

Although he had cleansed himself with mana before coming here, he could not guarantee that there were no tracking marks left on him that were difficult to eliminate.

For example, the Seven Fragrance Tracking Skill, even if the mark is washed away, the scent can linger on the target for seven days.

Thus, once inside the range of the array’s cover, concealing all his aura, He Song did not dare to let down his guard.

On the contrary, he fully activated the three arrays, ready to face any attackers at any moment.

However,

He Song waited for a long time,

But no one came after him.

Until several days later, when no one had followed him,

His plan to purchase spirit medicine in the Jade Flower Sect’s Immortal City had been decided even before he sold the Earth Spirit Elixirs at Ghost Road Immortal City.

He would buy spirit medicine in the Jade Flower Sect’s territory, then return to Heaven Power Immortal City to continue refining Earth Spirit Elixirs.

Now, He Song was merely executing his plan.

In doing so, He Song journeyed onward.

After leaving the array’s cover, he headed south toward the Jade Flower Sect’s territory.

But, just one day after He Song left,

His figure silently returned to the range of the array’s cover.

After observing his surroundings closely,

And discovering that no one had followed,

Only then did He Song relax his vigilance, dismantle the array, and tunnel underground, heading towards the Jade Flower Sect’s territory.

His previous actions, leaving without dismantling the array, were meant as a test.

If someone had the patience to wait for He Song to leave without taking action,

Then that person would definitely act swiftly once He Song left the range of the array and headed south.

In this way, as long as someone tried to harm him, He Song could immediately return to the location of the array to use its power to resist the enemy.

Whether he fought or fled, He Song would have the support of the array and not fall into a deadly trap.

But if no one followed, He Song’s actions would not create too much trouble for him.

At most, he would have wasted some time.

Between time and safety, He Song naturally knew which was more important.

Through his testing, he had also ascertained that no one followed him.

For this reason,

He Song dismantled the array and started heading towards the Jade Flower Sect’s territory.

However, this time, as he went to the Jade Flower Sect’s Immortal City, he did not reveal his cultivation to be in Foundation Establishment Realm as he did previously when selling Earth Spirit Elixirs.

Instead, he displayed his cultivation at the Qi-refining late stage. After making thorough preparations outside the city, he entered the Flowers Immortal City, which was controlled by the Jade Flower Sect.

He Song entered this Immortal City called Flowers Immortal City.

From its name, one could tell that Flowers Immortal City was an Immortal City under the control of the Jade Flower Sect.

He Song didn’t pay much attention to other things in Flowers Immortal City, but the places selling various spirit medicines couldn’t escape his eyes. After entering the city controlled by the Jade Flower Sect,

He Song quickly began to buy Earth Spirit Ginseng and auxiliary medicinal ingredients for refining Earth Spirit Elixirs one shop at a time.

After each purchase, He Song would enter the city’s inn to shake off anyone who might be following him.

So, in a cyclical manner,

He Song quickly bought the spirit medicine needed to refine several hundred Earth Spirit Elixirs.

These several hundred sets of spirit medicines for refining Earth Spirit Elixirs cost He Song a total of 100,000 spirit stones..
