Rebuilding the Immortal Cultivator Clan Chapter 2079 1508: Transaction (Part 2)

Observing that individual's stance, it seems they'll snatch up plenty of Spirit Seeds, amounting to a vast fortune in Spirit Crystals!

"What?!"

Qing Si's expression twisted in shock as he burst out, "Jiu, you lack sufficient Spirit Crystals right now—how could you accept such a deal?"

"Opportunities arise and vanish; you ought to grasp that by now."

Should those Spirit Seeds remain undamaged, they would scarcely end up in Li Zhirui's grasp.

"Yet if you fail to produce enough Spirit Crystals for the exchange, the contract will burden you with enormous debt plus steep interest, potentially lasting tens of thousands of years to repay!" Qing Si warned in panic.

"No need to fret."

With a assured grin, he responded, "I may not possess abundant Spirit Crystals at present, but since I took on the deal, I'm certain I can amass that vast sum within seven days."

Qing Si remained skeptical. Though Li Zhirui possessed talents, they didn't extend that far in his eyes.

"I've concealed some deadly secrets from you until now, but the moment has arrived for you to learn them."

Qing Si grasped this point yet doubted those secrets alone could yield such a fortune in Spirit Crystals so swiftly.

Still, out in the street, probing deeper proved unwise, so he held his tongue.

Shortly after, they stepped into an inn, secured a basic room, and depleted Li Zhirui's remaining Spirit Crystals.

Inside the chamber, his initial move was erecting a Formation to sever all links with the outer world.

Moments later, both he and Qing Si vanished without trace.

"Where are we?"

As vision returned to Qing Si, he gaped in awe at a domain brimming with countless rare Spiritual Objects.

"This is my ultimate hidden treasure—a Mysterious Space that expands alongside my Cultivation progress."

Once Li Zhirui detailed the space's core abilities, Qing Si's instant response was utter disbelief. How could a realm this defying to the heavens truly exist?!

Simply by channeling Spirit Stones, one could hasten the maturation of Spiritual Objects.

Yet having beheld it personally, acceptance became inevitable.

"Even selling every Spiritual Object here wouldn't yield that enormous pile of Spirit Crystals."

Though the Spiritual Objects numbered impressively, their Grades were too modest for The Void market, save a handful of Heavenly Immortal Rank ones fetching minor Spirit Crystals.

"Who mentioned peddling Spiritual Objects?"

Li Zhirui eyed Qing Si in mild astonishment, remarking, "After all these years by my side, you still haven't realized I'm a Heavenly Immortal Rank Great Alchemy Master?"

"I'm well aware, yet even if they turned into full Heavenly Immortal Rank Pills, it wouldn't cover that staggering quantity of Spirit Crystals."

He gave no more words, merely declaring, "Behold my craft."

Without pause, he conjured a Pill Furnace and commenced Pill refining.

The procedure flowed seamlessly with grace, subtle Dao Rhyme shimmering around it, betraying profound expertise.

Unwittingly, Qing Si became entranced by the display.

This batch yielded seven Pills upon completion, each of excellent Grade.

Next, Qing Si watched Li Zhirui skip storing them in a Jade Bottle, instead cradling them while a white glow poured forth into the Pills.

Soon, thin strands of black vapor seeped out, transforming the Pills' quality to far greater worth.

Then, before Qing Si's bulging eyes, a supreme top-grade Heavenly Immortal Spirit Pill emerged fresh from refining!

This skyrocketed the Pills' overall value.

"This... this... what's happening?!"

Having observed every step, Li Zhirui's techniques seemed ordinary—yet how did mid-grade Pills upgrade to top-grade so abruptly?

"Purification Principle."

With those words, Li Zhirui launched into refining a second batch.

Qing Si snapped to enlightenment, grasping the method fully.

"Maybe Jiu truly can fulfill that deal."

As for aid, spectating was his sole role.

...

Meanwhile, in another location.

Once the stall owner departed, he hustled to collect vast quantities of valuable Spirit Seeds.

His endeavors quickly amassed dozens of heavily impaired Spirit Seeds across ranks, netting one to two hundred Spirit Crystals with ease—a windfall that thrilled and spurred him onward.

This fueled his deepening obsession with the task.

Soon after, he no longer had to dash around seeking contacts, for word of his buying damaged Spirit Seeds quickly spread through the merchant networks.

Thus, owners of damaged Spirit Seeds started selling them directly to him.

Though worthless and fetching just a dozen or so Spirit Crystals, people gladly turned those junk items into quick cash.

Yet certain folks watched the stall owner closely, puzzled by his bold purchases of flawed Spirit Seeds.

A few even guessed he held a Secret Technique capable of repairing damaged Spirit Seeds, forcing them to take root and bud!

Ludicrous as the gossip seemed, in the boundless Universe, who could say impossibilities didn't exist? Such Methods could very well be real.

When Li Zhirui struck that deal earlier, he offered hundreds of Spirit Crystals as a commission fee since he was a novice in the Commerce, unable to orchestrate massive buys on his own.

His other motive was dodging wicked gazes; true, deals in the Commerce carried zero threats or sneaky traps, yet he preferred staying hidden.

In the end, amid The Void's endless expanse, chance encounters could still happen.

Should that occur, endless chases might follow, harming his cultivation path.

"With this pile of Spirit Seeds, can that fellow scrape together enough Spirit Crystals to seal the deal?"

After tallying the Spirit Seeds clutched in his palm, unease suddenly gripped the stall owner.

Despite the contract's strict penalties, Spirit Crystals don't appear from nowhere—they were all fronted by him!

...

The Void lacks suns or moons, yet the Ten Thousand Treasures Hall featured a crafted Sun and Taiyin overhead, marking time distinctly.

Essentially, the Ten Thousand Treasures Hall resembled a world, though lacking full Laws to claim the title, it sprawled inside a Magic Artifact's domain via special Methods.

Merely half a day shy of Li Zhirui's seven-day pact with the stall owner, he wrapped up alchemy and stepped back into the inn room from his private space.

"Time to go—hawk these Pills I slaved over these past days. Their sale should yield enough Spirit Crystals to finalize the exchange."

"Got it." Qing Si brimmed with assurance, having witnessed Li Zhirui's stunning prowess in the Tao of Alchemy up close!

Without that firsthand view, he'd never credit such a lavish technique—one boosting any Pill's Grade straight to top-grade.

They flung the door wide and strode swiftly into a Chaos Commerce-run shop.

"Greetings, honored customers. Seeking specific Pills? Our store doesn't boast everything, but our selection's vast, from everyday Heavenly Immortal Rank Pills to fair deals all around."

A mere lowly clerk of the Chaos Commerce radiated such fierce self-assurance and loyalty to the Commerce.

"We're not buying Pills; we're selling them," Li Zhirui declared their intent.

"Ah, so the honored guest is an Alchemist?! Once the Appraiser clears your items, we'll buy those Pills at market rates too."

"This way, please."

The clerk then guided them forward.
