Top-level Qi Luck: Leading My Clan to Cultivate-Chapter 2055 - 1053: Reaching Cooperation (2)

Moreover, the Tianshan Snow Fox, being a mighty Demonic Beast of the Fourth Order Middle Stage, finds the Ten-Thousand-Year Cold Marrow not as beneficial as it was initially perceived.

In this way, the Ten-Thousand-Year Cold Marrow, coveted by Human Cultivators, holds little value for the Tianshan Snow Fox, its owner.

Therefore, once the Tianshan Snow Fox has reclaimed the Ten-Thousand-Year Cold Marrow, it will certainly seek an opportunity to trade it away.

Among its prospective trading partners, every cultivator entering the Ancient Demon Secret Realm is a potential collaborator.

This includes those like Situ Jian, whom it repelled, and even includes itself.

Of course, to avoid misunderstandings with the members of the Yulan Sect, the Tianshan Snow Fox will surely avoid conducting such dealings in front of Wang Jinshan and others.

Because of this, Lin Tianming must seize the opportunity to complete the transaction with the Tianshan Snow Fox as quickly as possible.

Otherwise, if Situ Jian and his group return and preemptively strike before them,

then from the Tianshan Snow Fox’s standpoint, collaboration with anyone is possible as long as it yields benefits and profits.

Even if the previous opponent was Situ Jian, the Tianshan Snow Fox probably wouldn’t mind.

Similarly, facing Situ Jian, a little misstep shouldn’t cause hesitation in collaborating with the Tianshan Snow Fox.

After all, their initial purpose of coming here was to accomplish the task set by the Blood Red Alliance leaders — to collaborate with the Tianshan Snow Fox and obtain a certain amount of Ten-Thousand-Year Cold Marrow.

It’s just that their plan failed because Wang Jinshan and his group got ahead of them.

And later on, Wang Jinshan and his team were at a definite disadvantage.

In a moment of crisis, to secure the intervention of the Tianshan Snow Fox, Wang Jinshan did not hesitate to offer all of the Ten-Thousand-Year Cold Marrow along with three Fourth Order Heaven and Earth Treasures to persuade the Tianshan Snow Fox to assist them.

These terms were witnessed firsthand by Situ Jian.

Thus, with the Ten-Thousand-Year Cold Marrow back in the hands of the Tianshan Snow Fox, Situ Jian, knowing this, will most likely not pass up the chance to obtain the Ten-Thousand-Year Cold Marrow.

At the very least, regardless of whether he can collaborate with the Tianshan Snow Fox, Situ Jian will certainly give it a try.

If he can obtain the Ten-Thousand-Year Cold Marrow, the task instructed by the Blood Red Alliance leadership will be completed.

For Lin Tianming, with only a bit of thought, he can roughly anticipate this.

However, when Situ Jian will return to the Glacier Valley and what terms they might use to move the Tianshan Snow Fox, Lin Tianming is temporarily unable to ascertain.

Precisely because of this understanding, Lin Tianming has considered various factors before daring to appear openly at this moment.

According to his perspective, he must avoid Wang Jinshan and others spotting them to prevent unnecessary misunderstandings, and also prevent Situ Jian from seizing the treasure before them.

In such circumstances, Lin Tianming weighed various factors and chose to appear at this moment, presenting his ideas to the Tianshan Snow Fox.

In response to Lin Tianming’s proposal for cooperation, the Tianshan Snow Fox is not actually opposed.

From the perspective of the Tianshan Snow Fox, trading with any party is feasible as long as the Human Race offers something sufficiently enticing, even if it involves someone like Situ Jian, an old adversary.

With its Spirit Wisdom, the Tianshan Snow Fox is naturally clear on this.

In person, the Tianshan Snow Fox also thinks this way, which is why it directly asked Lin Tianming about his trade terms when he proposed the exchange.

At that moment, upon hearing the Tianshan Snow Fox’s remarks, Lin Tianming already understood that the Tianshan Snow Fox was not opposed to trading with him.

However, to meet the conditions of the Tianshan Snow Fox, he would need to present something enticing enough.

Otherwise, the transaction would likely fall through.

Understanding this, Lin Tianming began to calculate his assets carefully to select a few items that could pique the Tianshan Snow Fox’s interest without causing him significant loss.

After pondering for a moment, Lin Tianming came to a decision.

Subsequently, Lin Tianming gazed at the distant Tianshan Snow Fox and then patted his sleeve, causing several Jade Boxes to appear before him.

Immediately, these Jade Boxes opened on their own, revealing the treasures inside.

These treasures were among Lin Tianming’s prized collections over the years, each one a Fourth Order Treasure.

Among these treasures, they all shared a common trait, which was that they contained abundant energy and could directly or indirectly help the Demonic Beast that consumed them to enhance its power and accelerate its cultivation level.

These items were acquired over the years by Lin Tianming through considerable effort.

Included are items he obtained through independent exploration and significant battles, where he defeated Golden Core Cultivators and claimed them from their spoils.

In addition, there are parts he retrieved from the Treasure Vaults of obliterated Golden Elixir Forces within the Cultivation World of Jin Feng Country.

Initially, Lin Tianming intended to use these treasures, once he broke through to the Nascent Soul Stage, to refine them into Fourth Order Elixirs, supporting his cultivation.

Currently, to obtain the Ten-Thousand-Year Cold Marrow, though it was a sacrifice for him, Lin Tianming felt compelled to offer them.

He believed that with the Tianshan Snow Fox’s level and perspective, ordinary Fourth Order Treasures might not draw its attention.

If that were the case, naturally this transaction request wouldn’t succeed.

Understanding this, Lin Tianming mulled over his decision for a moment and resolved to part with these hard-earned treasures.

Now, these treasures were laid before the Tianshan Snow Fox.

At this, the Tianshan Snow Fox took a careful glance.

After a considerable pause, the Tianshan Snow Fox calmly remarked, "Young one, although these things may not be greatly useful to me, they are barely worth a look!"

"If that’s the case, I can trade with you!"

"However, your treasures’ worth, in my view, can at most equate to thirty pieces of Ten-Thousand-Year Cold Marrow." 𝘧𝓇ℯ𝑒𝓌𝑒𝑏𝓃𝘰𝘷𝘦𝘭.𝒸ℴ𝓂

"So, if you don’t mind, shall we exchange them for this quantity?"

Upon hearing these words, Lin Tianming immediately nodded.

In his opinion, although these few Fourth Order Treasures carried significant value, outside the secret realm they would undeniably cause a considerable stir.

Particularly in the eyes of those at the Golden Core Stage, these Fourth Order Spiritual Objects would surely ignite fierce competition.

Yet within the Ancient Demon Secret Realm, before the Tianshan Snow Fox, these treasures would barely be slightly useful.

In this context, the Tianshan Snow Fox’s reasoning seemed sound to him.

Furthermore, engaging in trade with such a powerful beast as the Tianshan Snow Fox, regardless of right or wrong, or any value disparity, he knew he had no capital to negotiate terms based on his cultivation level and strength.

Thus, within his heart, Lin Tianming found no opposition to the Tianshan Snow Fox’s words.

Accordingly, Lin Tianming promptly expressed, "Senior Snow Fox, your discerning eye knows quality; this junior has no objections to the exchange quantity you proposed."

"Additionally, I hope for your promise that when the Secret Realm opens next time, my family will send people in again."

"When the time comes, I hope to trade more Ten-Thousand-Year Cold Marrow with you."

Having spoken, Lin Tianming earnestly looked at the Tianshan Snow Fox, seemingly keenly anticipating its response.

Upon hearing these words, the Tianshan Snow Fox directly indicated its willingness to consider establishing a long-term collaboration with Lin Tianming’s forces.

However, to exchange for Ten-Thousand-Year Cold Marrow, whether it is Lin Tianming or others, one must present items enticing enough.

Otherwise, even for a small equivalent trade, the Tianshan Snow Fox would reject it without hesitation.
