Chapter 1915: Chapter 1918: Required Materials
"Is the young master now looking to settle the spirit stones?"
The Fallen Sea King looked at Chu Fengmian and spoke.
His gaze towards Chu Fengmian had become much more respectful.
Although he was a formidable half-step Heavenly Human Realm warrior, exterminating the Ling Long Dynasty was simply an impossible task.
Dealing with just Ling Long Jie was exceedingly troublesome for the Fallen Sea King.
Ling Long Jie, like the Fallen Sea King, is an old and powerful figure in the Canghai Star Domain, with countless cards in hand.
If engaged in a battle outside, the Fallen Sea King might have some chance, but within the Ling Long Dynasty, which is Ling Long Jie’s lair, laden with endless traps, the Fallen Sea King would find it incredibly hard to retreat unscathed.
But now, Chu Fengmian had single-handedly eradicated the Ling Long Dynasty, and although Chu Fengmian was only at the Nine Tribulations Ancient Emperor realm, his true strength was even more terrifying.
In this light, Chu Fengmian’s strength was almost on par with the third young master of the Sea Sword Sect, Hai Changge, and he certainly had the capability to compete for the position within the sect.
He was now endeavoring to forge good relations with Chu Fengmian, with the foresight of potential future benefits.
"No rush, I still need to purchase some items,"
Chu Fengmian slowly spoke.
"I obtained a batch of elixir recipes from the Ling Long Dynasty’s treasury and am planning to refine a batch of sacred pills."
Chu Fengmian spoke while simultaneously waving his palm, and a jade talisman appeared in his hand, flying towards the Fallen Sea King.
Recorded in this jade talisman were nine sacred herbs required for crafting the Immortal Ascension Pill.
For Chu Fengmian to step into the half-step Heavenly Human Realm, he needed the Immortal Ascension Pill, not just one or two but a multitude.
While he had some sacred herbs required for the Immortal Ascension Pill, they were still not enough, and he definitely needed to acquire more.
Chu Fengmian had just sold the entire Ling Long Dynasty treasury, gaining a substantial fortune, so even if he were to spend lavishly now, it wouldn’t raise anyone’s suspicion.
Moreover, this Immortal Ascension Pill was not only useful for Chu Fengmian but also very beneficial for those around him, and he could distribute them when returning to the Nine Domains.
If not, selling these Immortal Ascension Pills would surely drive numerous half-step Heavenly Human Realm warriors into a frenzy.
For those half-step Heavenly Human Realm warriors aiming to overcome the Heavenly Human Tribulation, the Immortal Ascension Pill, which can enhance the chances of success, is something they would fight for no matter what.
Even if it increases their chances by just one percent, it’s worth fighting for.
For Chu Fengmian, refining the Immortal Ascension Pill would always be profitable, so he intended to purchase as many ingredients as possible.
"These materials?"
The Fallen Sea King received the jade talisman, infusing it with spiritual power, revealing the names of the sacred herbs within.
The Fallen Sea King, being one of the tributors of the Moon Sea Commerce and having conducted numerous transactions, was well-acquainted with the names of these sacred herbs.
Carefully examining the recorded materials in the jade talisman, the Fallen Sea King’s expression grew increasingly grim.
"Young Master, even our Moon Sea Commerce cannot gather such a quantity of ancient-grade sacred herbs."
The Fallen Sea King hesitated for a moment, looking towards Chu Fengmian and speaking.
His intention was to build good relations with Chu Fengmian, so even if Chu Fengmian wanted to buy some extremely rare sacred herbs, he considered selling them to foster goodwill.
However, the latter part of the elixir recipe, the numerous ancient sacred herbs listed, left him helpless.
Ancient-grade sacred herbs, even just one appearing, could host an auction, attracting powerful warriors from Canghai Star Domain and countless surrounding star domains to vie for them.
Many names of ancient-grade sacred herbs Chu Fengmian noted were only documented in ancient texts and had never been heard to appear.
"No matter, I’ll buy whatever is available,"
Chu Fengmian replied to the Fallen Sea King with a smile.
Aside from the nine sacred herbs required for the Immortal Ascension Pill, the jade talisman also included numerous ancient herbs necessary to craft the Immortal Ascension Nirvana Pill.
One Immortal Ascension Nirvana Pill possesses an effect far stronger than a thousand Immortal Ascension Pills, and with one for Chu Fengmian, he has a tremendous chance of succeeding in the Heavenly Human Realm breakthrough.
Thus, Chu Fengmian keen to try gathering the materials to craft the Immortal Ascension Nirvana Pill, even if it’s only a few types.
Initially, Chu Fengmian wasn’t expecting the Moon Sea Commerce to possess such ancient sacred herbs.
Yet, from what the Fallen Sea King mentioned earlier, the Moon Sea Commerce surprisingly has several ancient herbs essential for crafting the Immortal Ascension Nirvana Pill.
This made Chu Fengmian regard Moon Sea Commerce with slightly higher esteem, realizing that they even possessed ancient-grade sacred herbs.
"Many of these herbs are in our Moon Sea Commerce’s warehouse; I must check firsthand,"
After reviewing the jade talisman, the Fallen Sea King looked up at Chu Fengmian and spoke.
The variety and quantity of sacred herbs listed in the jade talisman were too extensive for immediate confirmation.
"All right,"
Chu Fengmian nodded.
The Fallen Sea King’s figure flickered, departing the room.
Chu Fengmian sat quietly on the chair within the room, sipping tea as he waited. However, subtly, Chu Fengmian expanded his spiritual sense to probe the secrets of the Moon Sea Commerce.
The secrets within the Moon Sea Commerce were far more plentiful than Chu Fengmian had imagined, even the ancient sacred herbs that might be scarcer within the Sea Sword Sect.
Even if the Sea Sword Sect acquired ancient sacred herbs, they would likely be divided among the sect’s ancestors and not left intact.
Chu Fengmian broadened his spiritual sense, immediately detecting the Fallen Sea King.
The Fallen Sea King didn’t proceed to the warehouse as he mentioned but headed to the depths of the Moon Sea Commerce’s space, appearing eager to meet someone.
"Oh? The Fallen Sea King, who is he intending to meet?"
Observing the Fallen Sea King’s actions, Chu Fengmian smirked coldly, yet he didn’t act recklessly, continuing to follow the Fallen Sea King with his spiritual sense.
He watched as the Fallen Sea King entered a room in the deepest part of the Moon Sea Commerce, where a middle-aged man was seated.
The Fallen Sea King, upon entering, exhibited great respect towards this middle-aged man.
"Is this person the shopkeeper of Moon Sea Commerce?"
Chu Fengmian, observing through spiritual sense, deduced the possible identity of the middle-aged man, considering that he could only be the shopkeeper of Moon Sea Commerce to earn such deference from the Fallen Sea King.
