Cultivating for a hundred lifetimes to ascension-Chapter 258 - 220: Once Tasted, It’s Tasteless the Second Time_2

Chapter 258: Chapter 220: Once Tasted, It’s Tasteless the Second Time_2

“Senior, this is an ancient exotic species I obtained from an ancient cave mansion. Can it be traded for a Golden Core Formation Pill?”

Getting closer,

Zhao Sheng clearly saw that the female cultivator’s smooth face was also covered with densely packed wormholes. Countless thin, transparent nematodes poked their heads out of the holes, constantly contracting and expanding, resembling living “body hairs,” instinctively disgusting to behold.

As soon as the stone box was opened, clusters of gray nematodes awakened from their stillness. Their slender limbs slowly began to wriggle, and their heads, resembling earthworms, slightly lifted, appearing like flesh sticks.

The Gu Cultivator suddenly widened her eyes and exclaimed, “This is… the Original Ancestor Worm!”

As she spoke, a massive number of transparent nematodes buzzing out from her face and hands, as if in reverence to something sacred.

Countless tiny nematodes frantically flew out of her body, eagerly burrowing into the stone box to mingle with the gray nematodes.

In a moment, large and small nematodes filled the stone box carved from Pure Yin Spirit Stone, writhing and mating excitedly like clusters of snake balls.

Bang!

The female Gu Cultivator quickly closed the box, flicked her finger, and a Golden Core Formation Pill flew up into the air, landing in Zhao Sheng’s hand.

“Exchanged!”

Zhao Sheng flipped his hand, and the Golden Core Formation Pill disappeared.

Then, he frowned slightly and tentatively said, “Senior, just one pill… is not enough!”

“How dare you, don’t be greedy!”

With this cold rebuke, a burst of red mist suddenly appeared in front of Zhao Sheng, and a strange fragrance instantly filled his nostrils.

Zhao Sheng’s pupils contracted, and he hastily retreated a dozen feet, still with lingering fears as he stared at the buzzing red mist.

“Senior, you dare to make a move here!”

No sooner had Zhao Sheng spoken than four incredibly powerful Divine Thoughts enveloped him. The Golden Core Gu Cultivator’s face turned red, and fear was evident in her eyes.

She quickly stood up, bowed deeply and knelt to the four Nascent Soul grandmasters seated at the head.

Only then did the four Nascent Soul Divine Thoughts withdraw.

The female Gu Cultivator turned around, her complexion ashen as she coldly said to Zhao Sheng, “Your Gu Worm is only worth one Golden Core Formation Pill!”

Seeing that he couldn’t get a better deal, Zhao Sheng bowed and turned to leave.

After that, Zhao Sheng walked to a table and saw a group of bluish water droplets in a golden bowl on the table.

Although only the size of a ginkgo nut, it made Zhao Sheng secretly delighted.

Trouble gone through for nothing, easily found!

“Primordial Heavy Water, long time no see! I’ve missed you!”

Zhao Sheng walked up and asked, “How can this glob of Primordial Heavy Water be traded?”

The person behind the table also wore a hooded robe and a faceless mask, clearly unwilling to reveal their identity.

“Free Spirit Stones, Magical Treasures, and talismans; anything that matches the value not less than a hundred thousand Spirit Stones. Priority given to equally valued spiritual items.”

Upon hearing this, Zhao Sheng didn’t hesitate, immediately took out a spirit stone bag, and handed over a thousand Mid-grade Spirit Stones to the other party.

“I have ten million pounds of Kui Water as well. Do you want it? If you can buy it all, I’ll sell it to you cheaply.”

Zhao Sheng decisively said, “Yes! No matter how much Kui Water you have, I’ll take it all.”

“Good deal! How about one Spirit Stone per pound of Kui Water?”

“Okay!” Zhao Sheng immediately agreed.

A pound of Kui Water was worth more than this, the offer clearly showed the seller didn’t know the market price, or perhaps it was a no-cost trade for them.

“Hehe! I wonder who the unfortunate soul was that was robbed of this. It’s my gain now!” he thought to himself.

Kui Water is extracted from seawater, slightly spiritual pure water.

Naturally occurring Kui Water is often found in deep-sea trenches and canyons thousands of fathoms deep.

It is typically used to irrigate thousand-year-old spiritual medicines, to water-breed elixirs, and temper spiritual artifacts and treasures.

For Zhao Sheng, Kui Water was an essential spirit material for refining the Sea Suppressing Pearl.

The more Kui Water that is integrated, the greater the power of the Sea Suppressing Pearl.

And let’s not forget, Primordial Heavy Water is also known as Kui Water Essence.

A large amount of Kui Water, specially processed, is likely to yield Primordial Heavy Water.

Therefore, his demand for Kui Water was limitless, with no upper limit.

After the trade, Zhao Sheng turned and left without hesitation.

In the next hour, he only made two transactions: first, he exchanged a Foundation Establishment Pill and sixty thousand Spirit Stones for a top-grade Spiritual Flying Sword, the Chongtao Sword, and finally another Defense Talisman Treasure.

After these trades, his Storage Bag shriveled up, and he could only drool over the myriad treasures.

Sitting back at his own spot, Zhao Sheng thought for a moment and took out some Illusion Shadow Escape Talismans, Water Mine Talismans, and other Second-level talismans, along with Bone Marrow Spirit Pills, Soul Condensing Pills, and Second Transition Jade Dew Pills, and placed them on the table.

Opportunities are rare!

Though these talisman and spirit pills couldn’t compare to other treasures, they were still practical.

Surprisingly, the items he set out were quite popular.

Before long, three different people came by to purchase a batch of talisman and pills.

At that moment, Skeleton Boy stumbled over to Zhao Sheng’s table and asked in a deep voice, “Young Master would like to buy a few bottles of Bone Marrow Spirit Pills, how much for one bottle?”

“One bottle, ten pills, a total of three hundred Spirit Stones!” Zhao Sheng said coolly, while secretly heightening his vigilance.

From the start, this individual bore ill intentions toward him, his gaze occasionally betraying a deep murderous intent.

“Quite expensive, just one bottle then!”

Saying this, Skeleton Boy threw down a small bag of Mid-grade Spirit Stones, picked up a bottle of Bone Marrow Spirit Pills, and turned to leave the place.

Zhao Sheng watched his retreating figure, then looked down at the spirit stone bag on the table, his eyes thoughtful.

…

An hour later, the trade meeting gradually drew to a close.
