Chapter 1063 - Thistle Flower Nation (1/2)
Translator: Chaos_ Editor: Chaos_
The majority of the tenth level graded Mirage and Illusory Realm secret treasures were consigned in shops owned by the apex organizations in the world like the Fan Clan.
Because if they sold to the shops directly, the purchase price would be meager! Secret treasures were much desired by experts, yet to those who did not require it, they would be useless! The Dao of ‘Mirage and Illusory Realm’ was one of the rarer few Dao paths cultivated by cultivators. There were very few who actually reached the ninth level without relying on external materials!
Hence, it was hard to find ‘interested customers’ in treasures of this Dao.
When these secret treasures were sold to the shops, the shops would naturally lower the price.
Those who owned the treasures were not too willing to suffer from the loss. They rather consign it and wait for a ‘buyer’ to appear.
“Thistle Flower Nation.”
A white-robed young man nimbly appeared in midair. He looked at the distant beautiful city. That was the capital of the Thistle Flower Nation.
‘The Thistle Flower Nation is also a tier three little nation. They have just a single Cosmos God and two tenth level experts protecting it.’ Xue Ying thought. In the Realm Heart Great Land, there were quite a lot of tier three nations. Many great organizations disdained from developing in those desolate and dangerous places. Like the Thistle Flower Nation which was located by the dangerous Black Prison Yin Sea, and was a country formed from several hundred thousand islands.
Do not ever belittle a tier three nation!
Even though they might be small, those who dared to start a nation were Cosmos Gods with a solid foundation. Furthermore, these nations would usually help each other, forming a union.
Like the Thistle Flower Nation, it was part of a union located south of the Black Prison Yin Sea formed by many nations, the ‘United Star Union’!
…
The Mirage and Illusory Realm secret treasures were all waiting for buyers who required them. Hence, it was not that important where they were consigned to.
Those who truly seek them would rapidly rush over to another place in the Realm Heart Great Land.
“The food here in the Thistle Flower Nation is quite good.”
Xue Ying enjoyed himself by a pub along the street.
“Sir Xue Ying, the owner of the secret treasure has stated his price. The lowest is 11.5 billion cosmos crystals.” There was a sudden transmission.
“11.5 billion cosmos crystals? That is still too expensive. I’ll have a look at it first. There are eight Mirage and Illusory Realm secret treasures in total after all. I shall find the most appropriate and cheapest one out of them.” Xue Ying transmitted back.
“Alright. I’ll continue to negotiate with the owner of the secret treasure.”
Xue Ying smiled.
The reason why he was enjoying the delicacies and strolled around looking at the secret treasures exasperatingly was all because he wanted to delay and lower the price!
If one said that shops owned by those apex organizations like Fan Clan would always have a bottom line in the price and could not lower it any further, it was different for those who ‘consigned’ the items since it was all an elaborate and refined bargain with the owner of the secret treasure! The appearance of a ‘buyer’ was not often. Xue Ying naturally wanted to lower the price as much as he could. By slightly delaying for a little more time, he might reduce it by a billion cosmos crystals!
‘They are really risking their lives. Most of these are fishes from the Black Prison Yin Sea.’ As Xue Ying enjoyed the delicacies, he was able to make a conjecture that quite a few cultivators actually sacrificed their lives to fish up these fishes.
But for the sake of earning resources and cultivating, they had to risk their lives. Nothing would ever drop down freely from the sky.
‘Of the first two secret treasures, the lowest for one was at 15.6 billion and the other at 11.5 billion cosmos crystals.’ Xue Ying was calculating it. Even if it was appropriate, he wanted to get it at a lower price.
“Wheeze~”
The pub was very crowded.
There were many guests here too. Xue Ying sat by the corner in his white robe. With his void-ification capabilities in hiding his aura, other Primal Chaos experts would have a hard time discerning his real strength.
“Mn?” Xue Ying looked up. His gaze was filled with a strand of astonishment, ‘They said that the United Star Union is very chaotic, and killing is normal. But who would have thought that I would actually meet a huge scene of slaughter here at the Thistle Flower Nation capital.’
United Star Union was formed by many tier three nations, and some of them were utterly controlled by devils behind the scenes!
Killing, chaos…
Those were too frequent in the United Star Union.
Simply speaking, the stronger the country, the more stable it would be. For instance, Summer Wind Ancient Nation and other five great ancient nations, they were much more stable overall! As for the United Star Union? It would depend on the strength of the king. Some were more stable, and some were so messy that it was similar to the Black Devil Great Lake.
“Sou sou sou.”
Even though Xue Ying perceived it, other guests in the pub did not.
Many soldiers stealthily appeared around the pub, forming a vast array as they came. This array had entrapped the entire place.
“Shua.”
An enchanting green-gowned woman brought two subordinates with her and flew over from amidst the army. At this moment, she did not hide her aura at all. That enchanting and cold aura of hers spread over.
“My beloved husband, I have searched for you for a long time.” The enchanting green-gowned woman’s voice reverberated in the world. Her eyes stared at an attendant within the pub.
The moment she finished speaking.
“Hong!”
The surrounding combat array of the army was activated. “Hong~” A huge piece of the region had been covered by it. The army even produced a two-headed mutated beast figure, frightening many other cultivators to feel on the street and in the pub.
“We are doomed! It’s that ‘Demoness Xia Yin’ from the Sky Pillar Clan!”
“Teacher, are we going to be implicated?”
“See our fate!”
“Don’t let out any sound.”
Many cultivators in the surrounding including the attendants of some shops, the managers and even the guests were all scared witless. Living in the Thistle Flower Nation, they were accustomed to the occasional killings within, albeit they never have thought they would actually experience one happening. They only hoped they would not be implicated.
“Xia’er, both of us had bonded together as companions. How about living me a path to live, alright?” The attendant looked up.
