Chapter 411: 411 This deal is worth it

“Don’t be in a hurry to refuse.”

After the old man ate the flat peach that only ripens every ten thousand years, there was no change in his aura. It was as if he had just consumed a regular peach.

Despite being rejected by Gu Yang, he wasn’t agitated. Still smiling, he said, “I heard that you’ve obtained a flat peach at the Yaochi Conference. But what about the women around you?”

“You are charming and romantic, quite like myself in my youth. With the mortal realm on the brink of unprecedented changes, haven’t you thought of improving their strength?”

“The flat peach can do more than prolong life. For a mortal, consuming one can result in immediate ascension to immortality. Although the flat peaches of today no longer hold the divine effects of the ancient times, it’s not hard to ascend to the realm of Human Immortal with a few years of effort.”

A notion struck Gu Yang. From the old man’s words, he was willing to exchange a number of flat peaches for the Book of Life and Death.

Although the flat peaches weren’t particularly beneficial to him anymore, Su Qingzhen and the others were indeed his weaknesses.

As his cultivation level continued to rise, the gap between him and them continued to widen.

There is a serious distinction between mortals and immortals.

The Mortal Realm and the Divine Power Realm belong to the domain of mortals.

When the gap widens to a certain extent, the relationship naturally changes. He has already reached the Celestial Being realm while the highest among Su Qingzhen and her companions was just at the Divine Power realm. The lowest were still in the Mortal Realm.

In the next ten years, only two people, Ye Lingbo and Chu Xiyue, have the chance to break through to the Celestial Being realm.

The rest, who were considered talents in the Mortal Realm, could only rely on time after reaching the Divine Power realm. Without one or two hundred years, they would have no chance at all.

Gu Yang didn’t have a better solution as the ancient resources that could enhance cultivation levels, wonderful elixirs, and treasures had disappeared.

The two things that he had on hand that could directly enhance cultivation were the peach from the Red Moon Great Saint and the other was the flat peach.

But these two things were not enough to share among everyone.

If he could trade this spirit treasure for several flat peaches and each woman could receive one, it would indeed be a tempting proposal.

It wouldn’t necessarily be a loss. This was about meeting each other’s needs.

Gu Yang asked, “What use does senior have for this Book of Life and Death?”

Seeing that Gu Yang’s stance had changed, the old man knew he was in. He said, “In fact, what you have is a replica. The Black Emperor of ancient times created this spirit treasure when he captured a Soul-hooking messenger. Perhaps through this replica, you can find the real Book of Life and Death.”

Hearing that it was a replica, Gu Yang was somewhat disappointed, but soon realized that it was normal. How could the real Book of Life and Death end up in the hands of someone like Great Shaman?

The old man continued, “Since the Soul-hooking messenger couldn’t hook your soul, it means that you can’t use this spirit treasure. It’s useless to keep it. After all, using it once would reduce your lifespan. Using it too often might cause death.”

Gu Yang couldn’t help but laugh, “If you encounter an unbeatable enemy and can’t even keep your life, why worry about reducing your lifespan? This is a thing for saving lives. Even if I can’t use it, there’s still the dean.”

His implication was clear. A life-saving spirit treasure wasn’t something that could be traded away for just anything.

Seeing that the negotiation was almost complete, the old man made his offer, “Ten thousand-year-old flat peaches.”

Gu Yang looked troubled, “Too few… Ten won’t be enough to share.”

“Fifteen, no more.”

“Look, now Lord Chi Ming can create a third-stage Celestial Being avatar at any time. If he brings a few avatars to round up on me, I won’t be able to stand it…”

“You audacious boy, asking for so much! Plus a ten thousand years’ flat peach, okay?”

“Deal!”

Gu Yang spoke so much just to bargain. Since he decided to sell the Book of Life and Death, he had to sell it for a good price.

Fifteen thousand-year-old flat peaches and one ten thousand-year-old flat peach met his expectations.
