“Void Black Soil?” Paragon Huo Cheng looked at Xue Ying with puzzlement.
“I want to make a Sun Star Nucleus Stone, and I have no other ways than to purify it from Void Black Soil.” Xue Ying explained, “This Void Black Soil is something I’m requesting Big Brother Huo Cheng for help.”
Paragon Huo Cheng frowned, “The Void Black Soil is a minor matter and not worth a mention! But to eventually purify it, the Void Black Soil is only considered the most fundamental material. There are still 12 other precious materials needed, and also an expert to personally purify it with great efforts…”
“But other than this, what can I do? Unless someone is willing to trade their Sun Star Nucleus Stone?” Xue Ying helplessly said.
“Mn.”
Paragon Huo Cheng nodded.
The Sun Star Nucleus Stone, other than purifying it arduously, the other way was to obtain it from the Sun Star Nucleus! That was a perilous place, and even Rulers would turn into ashes if they entered. The ‘Sun Star Nucleus Stone’ was extremely precious, and the size of a fingernail… was enough to cause many powerful existences to use all their treasures in exchange for it. It was more valuable than the Cultivation Eden. Thus, Forefather Scarlet Flame felt guilty the moment he requested for one. He had no other ways, and only with Xue Ying would he have some hopes.
“I’ve never heard of anyone willing to exchange for it. I originally have one piece, but it’s a pity that my true body died that time and it has long been lost.” Paragon Huo Cheng said, “Exchanging is fine, but those who are willing to do so would set such exaggerated prices.”
“Right.” Xue Ying nodded.
“There are three difficult tasks when purifying it. One, there must be enough Void Black Soil. Second, there must be 12 precious materials. Third, find an expert to purify it.” Paragon Huo Cheng said, “Amongst them, finding the Void Black Soil is the easiest. It is slightly harder finding 12 materials, though finding an expert to purify it is the most troublesome matter.”
Xue Ying laughed, “I’ll solve them one by one.”
“You can leave the Void Black Soil to me. How much do you need?” Paragon Huo Cheng asked.
“At least 5 million kilograms of Void Black Soil.” Xue Ying said. 5 million kilograms of Void Black Soil was enough to purify 0.5 kilograms of a nail-sized Sun Star Nucleus Stone.
“I’ll get a million kilograms for you!” Paragon Huo Cheng forthrightly declared.
“Many thanks.” Xue Ying laughed.
“We are brothers, so there’s no need to say thanks. This is something elementary for me either way.” Paragon Huo Cheng chuckled.
Xue Ying nodded.
To obtain the ‘Void Black Soil’, the best way was to directly enter the ‘Void Black Soil Layer’, the fourth layer of the Sun Star. Everywhere was filled with Void Black Soil over there, and however much one wanted could be procured! And according to the degree of danger, the fourth layer of Sun Star was one where most Rulers could safely enter as the flames emerging within the Void Black Soil were insignificant.
However, some apex Paragons could enter as well.
Like Monarch Green, he could do it.
And amongst the apex Paragons, Paragon Huo Cheng who specialized in flame could do so as well! Paragon Huo Cheng entering the Void Black Soil was practically like returning home–something simple. Thus, getting one million kilograms of Void Black Soil was only spending a little more time.
“Getting the 12 precious materials is slightly more troublesome.” Paragon Huo Cheng said, “Requesting an expert to purify should be the most troublesome one. Other than Bloodshed God Emperor, Empress Qian He, the next who specialized in refining should be ‘Ripple Lady Planet Master’ who knew how to purify it. Purifying it was something extremely complicated, and one could not relax during the entire process. The moment one loses concentration, the purification would fail… requesting a Ruler would most likely be very difficult. We could only directly seek for Ripple Lady Planet Master, but he was the only Paragon under Empress Qian He, and Empress Qian He liked her very much. She specialized in refining for long periods of time, and rarely move outside of her places. Even to other cultivators, she was quite cold so requesting for her help is very difficult.”
Xue Ying nodded.
This was indeed the most challenging point.
Seeking a Ruler?
Even though his teacher treated him very well, he could not rely on the pampering of his teacher and ask his teacher to do this and that! It would cause his teacher to find it burdensome since giving an inch and asking for a mile was something excessive!
Amongst powerful existences, it was more important to consider a fair trade.
