Chapter 238: Chapter 236: Consecutive Breakthroughs in the Soul Path Realm
「Three days later.」
Su Qing received quite a few visitors at the Golden Core and Nascent Soul Realms.
To give Luo Xingya some experience, Su Qing had her go out and receive them.
These Golden Core and Nascent Soul Cultivators were generally looking to acquire Spirit Medicines.
And Su Qing, it seemed, had no shortage of them.
Over the three days, he closed three deals.
Even though his reputation had spread far and wide, not everyone dared to actually show up.
Four Cultivators had come.
Two Nascent Soul and two Golden Core.
One of them didn’t have enough Spirit Stones, so the deal fell through.
Su Qing was a man of his word.
When these Cultivators came, regardless of whether they were Immortal Cultivators or Demon Cultivators, Su Qing would only trade for Spirit Stones.
However, it was true that all four of them were a bit intimidated by Su Qing.
Three deals.
He had earned tens of millions of Spirit Stones.
Today, however, a particular guest arrived at Su Qing’s island.
Su Qing immediately instructed his Array Plate to be on high alert.
It was that Tribulation Cultivator.
Su Qing still remembered him.
The one who had shaken his small island.
Naturally, Su Qing went out to greet him.
"To what do I owe the pleasure of a visit from a venerable master of the Tribulation Crossing Realm?"
"If you want to seize my Immortal Realm, I’m afraid you’re not qualified," Su Qing said with immense arrogance.
But he had the victories to back up his words.
"Was it you who tampered with my clan’s Immortal Stone?" Cang Qingjian asked, keeping his composure.
It was the first time he had ever been thwarted by a junior cultivator at the Nascent Soul Realm.
"Would I ever offer up an Immortal Stone without doing something to it?" Su Qing chuckled.
"But you, venerable master, what brings you to my island?"
"I can’t recall a Great Cultivator of the Tribulation Crossing Realm needing to purchase Tier Four Spirit Medicine from me." Su Qing maintained his smile, his voice steady and full of confidence.
Cang Qingjian’s expression darkened. He knew he was helpless against the Nascent Soul Realm Cultivator before him.
But now both Immortal Stones were gone; how could Cang Qingjian possibly accept this?
"Qingjian, is this kid’s Immortal Array really that terrifying?"
Another Cultivator at the Tribulation Crossing Realm appeared beside him, looking down with displeasure at the Nascent Soul Cultivator.
This was another Tribulation Crossing Realm ancestor of the Cangqing Immortal Race, Cang Qingyi.
"Don’t, Qingyi." Cang Qingjian knew how terrifying the Grand Array was, so he reached out an arm to stop him.
Su Qing raised an eyebrow. ’Another old geezer?’
"Two Tribulation Cultivators are useless against it. This is an Immortal Array. Do you even know what that is?"
Su Qing laughed. "You can give it a try. I believe a Tribulation Crossing Realm cultivator from the Zhiyang Race was devoured in one bite, his physical body destroyed."
"His soul escaped, though. This time, I’ve added a Soul Path Attack and Kill Immortal Array. By all means, come and test it."
Cang Qingjian’s heart leaped when he heard that.
"Qingyi, not another word," he said to the Tribulation Cultivator beside him.
Then he turned to Su Qing. "I believe we can mend our relationship."
"My Cangqing Race needs Immortal Stones!"
"And what does that have to do with me?" Su Qing said flatly as a lounge chair appeared from his Storage Ring.
And he sat right down.
’Yes, what did it have to do with him?’
’What did it have to do with Su Qing?’
A while ago, so many families from the Abyss Sea had sent out their members, all searching for this very person: Su Qing.
Now he had appeared out in the open, and no one dared to make a move against him.
"Hah. While it’s true it has nothing to do with me, you can always trade for them," Su Qing chuckled.
Su Qing shot back, "Otherwise, why would I be having such a pleasant conversation with the two of you?"
"I would have ordered my Grand Array to kill you long ago," Su Qing said matter-of-factly.
Cang Qingjian froze for a moment, then looked to Cang Qingyi at his side. He said, "Are we negotiating or not? If not, we’re leaving."
"We must negotiate!" Cang Qingyi certainly wasn’t going to pass up the chance to acquire Immortal Stones.
"Why not come down to my island and talk?"
Cang Qingjian shook his head firmly. "No, we can talk just fine like this. What do you want?"
Cang Qingjian had no desire to go down there. If the Grand Array activated, not even two Tribulation Crossing Realm cultivators like them could escape.
’This little Nascent Soul Realm fellow absolutely cannot be underestimated.’
"Seeds. Spirit Medicine Seeds. Tier Five, Tier Six, Tier Seven and up—even Tier Nine Spirit Medicine Seeds, I want them all!"
"You can scramble for the Immortal Stones I just toss out, but if you want to trade for them properly..."
"...well, you know what you need to do."
"For Tier Five Spirit Medicine Seeds, you need at least two seeds of each type. To trade for a single Immortal Stone, you must provide over one hundred different types of seeds."
Su Qing had no idea if more than a hundred types of Tier Five Spirit Medicine even existed; he was just throwing the number out there as an opening bid.
"For Tier Six, same rule about pairs, but you’ll need no less than fifty different types."
"For Tier Seven, no less than thirty types."
"For Tier Eight, no less than ten types."
"And for Tier Nine, no less than five types."
"Trading for Spirit Medicine Seeds. That’s not too much to ask, is it?" Su Qing smiled.
"That price is far too high! We can’t afford it!" Cang Qingyi began to haggle.
"Enough!" Cang Qingjian stopped Cang Qingyi before he could say more.
"The Tier Nine seeds, we can do. But only one seed of each type."
Tier Nine!
This was Tier Nine.
Su Qing fell silent. "Tier Nine seeds are indeed quite rare, but I must have a pair of each."
"If you can’t afford it, I’ll just spread the news across the Abyss Sea. Plenty of families can."
"Don’t you worry about it." Su Qing had no desire to haggle.
"How about this? My race possesses three types of Tier Nine seeds. We can give you three pairs."
"And we’ll add pairs of seeds for five types of Tier Eight Spirit Medicines on top of that. How about it?"
"Deal!" Su Qing beamed. Just like that, he had obtained seeds for incredibly High Tier Spirit Medicines.
He’d struck it rich. He wouldn’t be lacking Spirit Medicine anymore. After all, the cost of an Immortal Stone was just a few hundred Spirit Stones.
"Qingyi, go back and retrieve them."
"No worries!" Su Qing tossed an Immortal Stone over to them.
Cang Qingjian caught it and held on tight, but the Immortal Qi was still steadily dissipating from it.
"You have three days. I want to see the seeds. Otherwise, all the Immortal Qi in this stone will be gone."
"Go on. If you take the Immortal Stone and don’t deliver the goods, your entire race can forget about ever getting another one."
"Alright, we’ll head back at once. By the way, are those other offers you mentioned still valid?"
"We can gather some more seeds to bring over."
"Of course. As long as they’re seeds I don’t already have, all those terms still stand," Su Qing said.
He had barely finished speaking when the two Tribulation Cultivators vanished.
It was as if they had teleported from right under Su Qing’s nose; he couldn’t track their movements at all.
’My Realm is still too low.’
Su Qing chuckled inwardly.
An Immortal Stone like that could be synthesized for less than 200 Spirit Stones.
The cost was laughably low.
Completely unprecedented.
The Synthesizer was just that powerful.
Spirit Medicine.
Right now, all Su Qing wanted was to collect Spirit Medicines.
As for Cultivation Techniques.
He hadn’t even broken through to the Divinity Transformation Realm yet.
There was no use in having such a high-level Cultivation Technique.
When the time came, he could just use Immortal Stones to tempt those families from the Abyss Sea.
He would have everything he needed.
Su Qing felt much freer now.
Who could possibly do anything to him?
Su Qing felt incredibly relaxed, as if a great weight had been lifted from his shoulders.
Even the air he breathed felt sweet, and his whole being felt refreshed and invigorated.

Dustless Sixth Layer [God Demon Devouring Universe Map: Mastery (193.24/1000)]
...
Seventh-Layer of Dustless
...
Dustless Eighth Layer
...
Ninth-Layer of Dustless [God Demon Devouring Universe Map: Mastery (193.24/1000)]
Just as this blissful feeling crested, Su Qing felt his Soul Realm suddenly erupt, as if a long-suppressed power had finally burst forth.
In an instant, his Soul Realm soared to the Ninth-Layer of Dustless.
But Su Qing remained lost in that wondrous sensation.
He felt that everything in the world was beautiful—the Spirit Medicines in his fields, the worms wriggling in the soil, the countless tiny creatures in the air.
Su Qing perceived all of this, yet remained completely unconcerned, lost in the feeling of total relaxation.
He didn’t snap out of it until late at night.
He sat dazedly on the ground, his legs splayed out, his body leaning back and propped up by his hands.
He only came to his senses when he looked up and saw the starry night sky.
’I can’t believe it’s already so late...’
