Chapter 307: Feng Qingya’s Countermeasure

Luo Yuebai muttered to herself, unsure if she was making excuses for herself. In any case, she didn’t wait for her words to fade away before taking a step forward.

At this moment, she had disguised herself, and none of the many cultivators in the first-floor grand hall recognized her.

She walked straight towards the stairs leading to the second floor at the far end of the hall.

Perhaps in the future, as Linjiang City developed, Foundation Establishment cultivators would be able to reach the second floor, and this point would change.

But for now, there were no new rules.

So, under normal circumstances, Luo Yuebai should have been able to ascend to the second floor without any obstacles.

However, just as she reached the stairs, the prohibition array at the entrance suddenly fluctuated, gently pushing her back.

Luo Yuebai’s eyebrows furrowed instantly.

She had successfully formed her Golden Core and reached the Golden Core period.

She far exceeded the basic requirements for the second floor of Linjiang City’s Treasure Gathering Pavilion.

After thinking for a moment, she took out a token.

This was her Evil Moon Sect’s Linjiang branch sect master token.

It had been recorded in the Treasure Gathering Pavilion before, but it seemed to be of no use.

The prohibition array in front of her seemed to have become an insurmountable obstacle to reaching the second floor.

“What’s the meaning of this?

Is it targeting me, or has the threshold been raised entirely?

Even if the array’s restrictions were raised to the Nascent Soul Stage, I shouldn’t be unable to ascend with my identity.

Hehe…Feng Qingya really has some tricks up her sleeve.”

Luo Yuebai thought to herself.

But she didn’t choose to force her way through.

After all, she had sneaked out alone this time.

With her Golden Core cultivation, she wasn’t capable of forcefully breaking into the Treasure Gathering Pavilion.

If news of this got out, that the esteemed Evil Moon Sect branch sect master couldn’t even ascend to the second floor, it would be too laughable.

She, of course, knew that this was Feng Qingya’s revenge against her after being blocked by the Evil Moon Sect.

But in this situation, it seemed that there was no other good method.

“Hmph! You just wait and see.”

After thinking for a moment, Luo Yuebai could only leave behind a fierce remark before departing.

If she lingered any longer, she might attract the attention of the many cultivators on the first floor.

But she didn’t believe that, with Linjiang City already under her control, she couldn’t handle a single Feng Qingya!

On the other side, on the second floor of the Treasure Gathering Pavilion, Feng Qingya’s lips curled up into a smile.

She had, of course, sensed the situation below.

After all, this was all her doing.

Even though Luo Yuebai had disguised herself, her aura would still reveal itself when she tried to ascend.

And the prohibition array at the stairs was completely under Feng Qingya’s control, allowing her to decide who could ascend.

Feeling Luo Yuebai’s departure, Feng Qingya didn’t hesitate and nodded directly at Su Jingzhen.

“No matter what Master Su wants to do, Qingya will naturally provide full support.”

Everyone had their own secrets.

Since Su Jingzhen had already made his stance clear and didn’t want to inform her, she wouldn’t force the issue.

Many times, asking too many questions would only lead to trouble.

Without waiting for Su Jingzhen’s response, she continued, “Actually, Master Su should also know the principle of the Spirit Awakening Tower.

The key is to arrange the spirit stones inside into an array, which can then stimulate the spiritual roots within children of suitable age.

So, the array plate and spirit stones can be used to simulate a miniature Spirit Awakening Tower.

However, the effect would be greatly reduced.”

Upon hearing Feng Qingya’s words, Su Jingzhen’s expression changed again, with a hint of excitement in his eyes.

Yan Xia seemed to have a lot of confidence this time.

Perhaps having a miniature Spirit Awakening Tower’s effect would be enough. Seaʀᴄh the NôᴠelFire.net website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

The array plate and spirit stones could be secretly used, and no one would discover that he was doing this for Yan Xia.

Moreover, even if it didn’t succeed, he wouldn’t lose anything.

As the saying goes, “A family with a foundation will not be poor, and a family without a foundation will not be rich.” With this foundation, he could directly test suitable children in the future.

He could store the array plate and spirit stones in his storage ring, and they wouldn’t consume any spirit stones.

And if it succeeded, that would be even better.

Su Jingzhen immediately looked at Feng Qingya and asked, “Miss Feng, how can I purchase the array plate and spirit stones for the Spirit Awakening Array?”

Feng Qingya had already mentioned it, so the Treasure Gathering Pavilion must have them.

With his current wealth, it shouldn’t be a problem to obtain the array plate and spirit stones.

Not to mention the dozens of Superior-quality Breaking Through Adversity Pills he still had on hand, which were a treasure trove of wealth.

Moreover, he could now refine Heart-Calming Pills, and if he were in a strange land, refining Rebirth Pills shouldn’t be too difficult either.

And just two days ago, he had defeated the three demonic beasts on Clear Wind Mountain.

The three demonic beast crystals, purified and refined, would likely be highly valued by Feng Qingya.

“There’s no need to discuss buying or selling between us, Master Su.

The Spirit Awakening Array is not a profound array, and the spirit stones, although rare, are not too precious.

I’ll give you both of these items as a gift.

You might just need to wait a few days, Master Su.

Because Linjiang City rarely uses these things, we don’t have them in stock.

I’ll have them delivered to you within ten days. What do you think?”

As Feng Qingya spoke, her lips still wore a faint, charming smile.

Su Jingzhen raised an eyebrow, but ten days was a small price to pay, and he could wait.

“Very well, I’ll entrust it to you, Miss Feng.”

Feng Qingya still wore a charming smile: “Isn’t this just a small favor between us?”

But before her words could fade away, the storage ring on Su Jingzhen’s hand suddenly flashed a faint light.

The next moment, the silvery-gray, translucent demonic beast skin appeared on the table in front of them.

“There’s one more thing I’d like to ask of you, Miss Feng.

This is a third-level demonic beast skin.

I believe Miss Feng is very clear about the abilities of Phantom Beast.

This animal skin seems to contain some special energy. I wonder if Miss Feng can turn it into a spiritual weapon?

It would be great if I could inherit his ability to become invisible.”

When Su Jingzhe killed the phantom beast, he already had this thought in his mind.

Although the phantom beast couldn’t achieve perfect stealth at close range, even half of its ability would be incredible in Su Jingzhen’s eyes.

It might have an extraordinary effect in critical situations.

Although there were spiritual artifact shops in Linjiang City, they mostly catered to the lower-level cultivators.

Naturally, he would not be interested in things that people in the Qi Refining Stage would like.

In the Treasure Gathering Pavilion, there must be a master craftsman with a high level of expertise.

Handing it over to Feng Qingya, he would still feel a bit more at ease.

Upon hearing Su Jingzhen’s words, Feng Qingya’s face revealed a hint of surprise.

She, of course, knew that Su Jingzhen had already reached the level of Flesh Body Golden Embryo.

But according to her knowledge, Su Jingzhen should only be at the first or second layer of Flesh Body Golden Embryo.

To be able to capture a third-level phantom beast was truly astonishing.

She immediately reached out to flip over the phantom beast’s skin.

The next moment, Feng Qingya furrowed her brow: “As far as I know, phantom beasts should all have innate spiritual patterns.

Their core abilities and core energy are all derived from these innate spiritual patterns.

Could it be that the innate spiritual pattern of this phantom beast was destroyed by Master Su?”

Feng Qingya had previously seen Su Jingzhen’s fighting style.

She had also seen the corpses of Liu Jinfeng and other assassins arranged by Feng Mingyan, most of whom were killed by Su Jingzhen with a single brick to the head.

If the phantom beast had died in the same way, it was possible that the innate spiritual pattern had been blown up along with its head.

That would be a real pity.

Upon hearing this, Su Jingzhen was stunned again.

He then took out a palm-sized piece of beast skin from his storage ring.

On it was a prominent ice-blue spiritual pattern.

Seeing this, Feng Qingya’s face suddenly lit up with joy!

“The spiritual pattern is still intact, that’s great!

This spiritual pattern is well-preserved, and the phantom beast’s spiritual pattern seems to be quite complete.

With this spiritual pattern and the relatively complete beast skin, creating a spiritual artifact would be more than sufficient.

However, Qingya, cannot guarantee that it will definitely possess the phantom beast’s stealth ability.”

Su Jingzhen nodded, his heart filled with expectation, but he didn’t think it was certain to succeed.

At this time, Feng Qingya opened her mouth again: “I suppose the phantom beast’s demon beast crystal core is also in Master Su’s hands, right?

Why not hand it over to me as well? With the demon beast crystal core embedded, it might be possible to take your spiritual artifact to the next level.”

As if afraid that Su Jingzhen would misunderstand, Feng Qingya explained further: “Master Su, don’t misunderstand, I’ve seen many methods of artifact refinement before.

One of the functions of demon beast crystal cores is to be used in the refinement of various spiritual artifacts. If we can get a matching demon beast crystal core, that would be the best.”

Upon hearing this, Su Jingzhen nodded.

There was no need to hesitate, and he directly took out the phantom beast’s crystal core.

As for the purification process, Feng Qingya was already aware of it, and there was no need to hide it.

Feng Qingya, of course, knew that Su Jingzhen had the ability to refine the demon beast crystal core’s violent intent.

But after trying several times without success, and that being Su Jingzhen’s secret, she didn’t take it to heart.

At this time, seeing the demon beast crystal core that had become extremely pure, Feng Qingya’s heart was once again shocked.

After all, the previous attempts she had asked Su Jingzhen to try were only with second-grade demon beasts, and the phantom beast in front of her had reached third-grade.

【Emotional Connection+6】

【Remaining usable points: 131】

At this time, Su Jingzhen suddenly saw golden words floating in front of him.

And it was a double hit.

This was slightly unexpected for Su Jingzhen.

“This is complete.

With these things, Master Su can rest assured that Qingya, will definitely return a spiritual artifact that will satisfy you.”

Feng Qingya’s promise made Su Jingzhen feel at ease.

Not to mention his kindness towards the Feng Family, but simply the potential within himself and the value he might bring to the Feng Family in the future.

It wasn’t something that a single third-grade demon beast could compare to.

In this matter, he believed that Feng Qingya and the entire Feng Family would definitely do their best.

Having lived two lives, Su Jingzhen had a clear understanding of human nature.

Feng Qingya then smiled again and said, “Master Su, are you willing to sell the method of refining this demon beast crystal core?

Qingya, or Treasure Gathering Pavilion, is willing to cooperate with Master Su.

We’ll split the profits from this technology, and I’m willing to give you three-tenths as a reward.

What do you think, Master Su?

The benefits this technology can bring will be enormous and endless, and I’m sure Master Su won’t be disappointed.”

As she said this, Feng Qingya’s eyes were filled with expectation.

She was extremely eager to get her hands on Su Jingzhen’s ability to refine demon beast crystal cores.

She could see the unparalleled value in this.

She had brought it up with Su Jingzhen before, but he hadn’t agreed, so this time she was willing to offer more.

Although she knew that Su Jingzhen had failed many times before.

But even if Su Jingzhen’s technology could only perfectly refine one crystal core out of ten, it would still be enough.

However, Su Jingzhen could only shake his head in response to this proposal.

Feng Qingya’s face fell.

She then said, “How about this, Master Su, you can train a group of warriors who have signed a spiritual seal contract with you and pass this technology to them.

Then, they can work with my Treasure Gathering Pavilion’s alchemy workshop to refine the demon beast crystal cores.

We’ll provide the resources and other materials needed to make items with demon beast crystal cores.

This way, Master Su won’t have to worry about your technology being leaked.

And we’ll split the profits… directly, 50-50!

This is a win-win situation.

What do you think, Master Su?”

As a core member of Treasure Gathering Pavilion, Feng Qingya was not only a talented cultivator but also a talented businesswoman.

She didn’t need to grasp others’ core technologies; she just needed to let this technology create value for her.

If Feng Qingya were born in Su Jingzhen’s previous life on Earth, she would probably become a business magnate.

However, even though Su Jingzhen was really tempted, he could only shake his head.

It wasn’t that he was unwilling to sell his core technology, but that he couldn’t sell it at all.

After all, he himself didn’t even understand the secrets of the black brick.

He couldn’t even handle this overwhelming wealth.
