Cultivating for a hundred lifetimes to ascension-Chapter 1533 - 830: The Great Grandmaster Emerges

Ku Rong Ancestor stepped down from the wall and personally handed the pouch to Zhao Sheng.

Zhao Sheng tucked it into his sleeve without even looking, then took out a Sumeru Ring with Divine Thought entwining around it.

In the blink of an eye, seventeen or eighteen treasures flew out, each gleaming with vibrant colors and appearing extraordinarily mysterious.

"Wow, Vermilion Bird Divine Fire, Thousand-year-old Ice Marrow, Ten Thousand Years Thunderstruck Phoenix Wood, Void Meteor Crystal, White Tiger Demon Pill... such treasures, such treasures!" With vast experience, Ku Rong Ancestor quickly listed all the treasures and even verified their authenticity.

Undoubtedly, each piece was priceless and hard to encounter in a thousand years.

This time, Zhao Sheng didn’t wait for the other’s question; he proactively handed a Jade Scroll to Ku Rong Ancestor.

Having reviewed the information within the Jade Scroll, Ku Rong Ancestor’s expression became moved, and he couldn’t help but glance at Zhao Sheng more than once.

"Sumeru Stone, You Tan Golden Core, Mirage Dragon Cloud Crystal, Kong Sang Tree Heart, Sun Crown Fire, Cave Heaven Marrow Jade, Uranium Light Marrow... Great Power Remains, Wind Core, Soul-shaking Stone, Ten Earthly Miasma, Breaking Realm Spirit Boat, Primordial Spirit Treasure Armor... Four Saints True Blood, Breaking Illusion Divine Pill, Million Years Ascension Wood... In total, not less than three hundred kinds."

The first thirty or so are precious but not rare. However, as the list goes on, the treasures described become increasingly rare, with some only appearing in legends, such as the Million Years Ascension Wood. 𝓯𝙧𝓮𝓮𝒘𝓮𝙗𝙣𝒐𝒗𝒆𝓵.𝓬𝓸𝒎

After a moment, Ku Rong Ancestor put down the Jade Scroll somewhat reluctantly, saying with a bitter smile, "Taoist Zhao, are you perhaps playing tricks on this old man? The treasures listed at the beginning of the Jade Scroll, our company can still find a way to procure them. But the hundred eighty or so treasures at the end mostly appear only in legends, almost impossible to find in reality. Please forgive this old man’s inability!"

Zhao Sheng smiled lightly and said calmly, "No worries! I wouldn’t compel anyone. But I wonder, how many of the treasures in the Jade Scroll does your company currently have? And how many can be exchanged for my things?"

Ku Rong Ancestor thought for a moment and immediately stated, "Our company currently has seven Sumeru Stones of various sizes, two pieces of Cave Heaven Marrow Jade, a You Tan Golden Core with a diameter of two inches and seven points... over three hundred Returning Void Jade Bones, one lamp of Ten Muddy Earth Fiends..."

Ku Rong Ancestor listed nearly a hundred Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures, all desired by Zhao Sheng. The last seven or eight were particularly rare treasures of immeasurable value.

It’s clear that the Old Tree Demon intends to showcase the strength of the Wanyou Trading Company to the guest.

Once Ku Rong Ancestor finished, Zhao Sheng said without hesitation, "Very well, I want all these treasures."

"Taoist Zhao, please don’t joke! The treasures you’ve presented aren’t even worth a tenth of the treasures this old man mentioned." Ku Rong Ancestor shook his head and finished, suddenly adopting a much colder demeanor.

Zhao Sheng seemed entirely unconcerned about the change in attitude, boldly claiming, "This time, as many of the treasures can be exchanged, please do. After all, we will still be trading with each other frequently in the future. However, I want to prioritize certain treasures, such as the Cave Heaven Marrow Jade, Sumeru Stone, You Tan Golden Core, and Mirage Dragon Cloud Crystal... No matter how many your company can procure, I can accept them all.

Frankly, Fellow Daoist Ku Rong, I am a Master of Hundred Arts, proficient in Alchemy, Artifact Refining, talisman making, Array setup, among other skills. Not to brag, but I dare say that almost no one in Jiuxuan City can surpass me in Alchemy and Artifact Refining."

Zhao Sheng spoke with great confidence, appearing to completely disregard other Fellow Daoists.

But sometimes, arrogance is a sign of intense self-confidence.

Zhao Sheng is by no means arrogant. If he dares to speak this way, he is naturally full of confidence.

Seeing his confidence, Ku Rong Ancestor is still somewhat skeptical.

Yet, a Divinity Transformation True Monarch daring to boast this way probably has some skills.

Ku Rong Ancestor simply went with the flow, warmly stating, "In advance, congratulations to Taoist Zhao. Currently, Jiuxuan City is in dire need of a Great Grandmaster in the fields of Artifact Refining and Alchemy. If you can refine one or two Spirit Treasure Level Magical Treasures, it will undoubtedly cause a sensation throughout the city. By then, customers will flock, and there will be many seeking treasures. Taoist Zhao will surely accumulate wealth broadly. Our company will also go all out to acquire the items you seek. In such a scenario, both of us will be delighted!"

Zhao Sheng laughed, "What Daoist Rong said is exactly what I intend. Therefore, I ask Daoist Rong to put some thought into helping me find the first customer."

Ku Rong Ancestor’s expression turned serious, and he said in a somber tone, "This is simple! There are countless cultivators in Jiuxuan City, many seeking a Spirit Treasure that they haven’t obtained. This old man knows of at least a dozen Divinity Transformation Fellow Daoists who are lacking a suitable Spirit Treasure. Within two days, this old man will certainly bring someone to visit. But I wonder, Daoist—"

Before he finished, Zhao Sheng suddenly interrupted, "I’m not going anywhere; I’ll just rent a Heavenly Cave Mansion at the Fourth Layer Qunxian Residence."

"Renting a Heavenly Cave Mansion isn’t cheap; the monthly rent is at least ten Top-grade Spirit Stones, with a minimum rental period of one year, without an upper limit."

"Rent for ten years first; rental fee is just a minor matter." Zhao Sheng said without hesitation.

"Good!" Ku Rong Ancestor responded, immediately reaching into his chest and pulling out a palm-sized, lush and verdant wooden token.

On the front of the wooden token were several lines of Spiritual Text, while the reverse naturally grew into a tree diagram, with a vivid and lifelike, ancient towering banyan tree full of life.

Zhao Sheng received the wooden token and left a Divine Thought Imprint within it, then tucked it into his sleeve.

Seeing this, Ku Rong Ancestor said with a smile, "Please wait a moment, Taoist, the treasures will be delivered soon."

Not long after, over twenty "tree tumors" suddenly swelled up from the ground.

The tree tumors varied in size, and they quickly opened to reveal the contents hidden inside.
