Chapter 1197: Chapter 510: The Mysterious Silver-Faced Man [8000-Word Mega Chapter - Subscription Requested]_3
Here is the translation:
The Great Zhou Kingdom was vast and rich in resources, with countless marketplaces. If he were to visit and investigate each marketplace individually, who knows how much time it would consume.
At times like this, the role of the Tianzhi Tower became apparent.
As a specialized shop for selling intelligence, they naturally wouldn’t overlook information regarding various exchange assemblies or underground treasure exchange conventions, updating relevant information every month.
This type of information was also one of their best-selling items. Many mid-to-high-level cultivators like Zhou Chun, who wanted to save time, were willing to spend some Spirit Coins to purchase such intelligence.
Zhou Chun wasn’t lacking in Spirit Coins and directly spent several thousand Spirit Coins to purchase information about various exchange assemblies and auctions.
It’s worth mentioning that Tianzhi Tower also sold entry tokens for certain exchange assemblies and underground treasure exchange conventions or offered methods to acquire such tokens. frёewebηovel.cѳm
Zhou Chun reviewed the purchased information and quickly selected three trips worth prioritizing.
One was an auction assembly to be held at Xiandu Marketplace six months later, another was an underground treasure exchange convention near Tianyuan Immortal City two years later, and the last was an exchange assembly hosted at the estate of the Nascent Soul Stage loose cultivator, Huangyun True Person, three years later.
These three events were relatively high-end and were guaranteed to feature Dharma Treasures, Spirit Materials, or even peerless treasures.
Zhou Chun had another matter to handle during this trip to the Great Zhou Kingdom—exchanging the Green Wood Malevolent Banner, a Dharma Treasure, for a fire attribute Dharma Treasure for Zhou Mingde to refine and use.
Having finalized the three must-attend trips, Zhou Chun then chose some secondary trips to visit casually.
Since he couldn’t cultivate for the time being, wandering around wasn’t an issue.
As for visiting the "Master Qianji," Zhou Chun decided it would be better to wait until he crafted his Lifebound Dharma Treasure before making the visit.
The bow-wielding Warrior Puppet originated from a secret realm island. If the "Master Qianji" studied this item, he would certainly want to uncover its origins, and Zhou Chun couldn’t guarantee that the master wouldn’t use coercive means to acquire it.
Being cautious was never a mistake.
In the following three to four months, Zhou Chun traveled ceaselessly, attending one underground auction and exchange assembly after another.
His Golden Core Stage cultivation rendered his participation in these events quite relaxed.
Most hosts were happy to welcome an additional Golden Core Stage cultivator to the events.
After attending several auctions and exchange assemblies, Zhou Chun successfully exchanged for some thousand-year-old Spirit Grass and managed to bid on Flame Core Iron, a Spirit Material required for Zhou Mingde’s Lifebound Dharma Treasure, for a price of eighteen thousand five hundred Spirit Coins.
As Zhou Chun contemplated attending more auctions and exchange assemblies, Luo Qingni brought good news from her side, prompting him to rush back to Tianyuan Immortal City.
"Taoist Friend Zhou, you’re quite fortunate. The owners of those two thousand-year-old Spiritual Medicines have both agreed to exchange with you, and someone has offered to sell the Fourth Order Demon Beast’s Essence Blood. The crafting of the Ancient Dust Pill should proceed smoothly soon," she reported.
"Additionally, Qingni helped investigate for you. Within Tianyuan Immortal City, the only master capable of refining the Soul Heart Fruit into Purple Mansion Spirit Pills is Master Ge Yun, but he mentioned that he has agreements with major sects, prohibiting him from accepting commissions to refine this type of Spirit Pill for others."
"However, if Taoist Friend Zhou is willing to sell the Soul Heart Fruit to him, he is willing to offer a discount on one or two Purple Mansion Spirit Pills!"
In Qingni Residence, Luo Qingni didn’t bother keeping Zhou Chun in suspense upon his excited arrival and promptly explained the outcomes of the matters he had entrusted to her.
Upon hearing her words, Zhou Chun’s expression fluctuated between joy and concern, revealing mixed feelings.
Only after his face changed several times did he bow slightly to Luo Qingni and say, "Zhou Mou understands. Thank you, Taoist Friend Luo, for your time and effort on Zhou Mou’s behalf."
Luo Qingni, noticing his shifting expression, had an inkling of what he was thinking and gently suggested, "If Taoist Friend Zhou is available, Qingni can begin refining the pills in a few days, and you’re welcome to observe the process."
Upon hearing this, Zhou Chun immediately shook his head and replied, "Observing the pill refinement isn’t necessary. Taoist Friend Luo’s character is trustworthy to Zhou Mou."
As he spoke, he patted the Storage Pouch at his waist and retrieved a Jade Box, handing it to Luo Qingni. "This Bluewave Heart-Cleansing Tea is an exceptional Spiritual Tea that Zhou Mou stumbled upon by chance. When brewed and consumed, it can slightly enhance the Divine Sense of Golden Core Stage cultivators like us. Consider it a token of appreciation for your help, Taoist Friend Luo. Please accept it."
"Thank you, Taoist Friend Zhou, for your trust. Qingni won’t stand on ceremony," Luo Qingni said with a faint smile, casually accepting the Jade Box and storing it away.
After concluding the matter of pill refinement, Zhou Chun handed over all the Spiritual Medicines for refining the Ancient Dust Pill and the materials for crafting Foundation Establishment Pills to Luo Qingni before departing.
With two to three months remaining before the major auction at Xiandu Marketplace, Zhou Chun needed to hurry there to participate.
However, after barely settling in at Xiandu Marketplace for a few days, Sun Yuanjing from the Heavenly Treasure Pavilion suddenly sent someone to contact him.
Receiving Sun Yuanjing’s message, Zhou Chun had no choice but to rush back to Tianyuan Immortal City once more.
Fortunately, as a Golden Core Stage cultivator, his traveling speed was far superior to before. Otherwise, this back-and-forth journey might have caused him to miss the major auction.
