107 Will I Get Rich Today? (1/2)

”My master, he really doesn't like challenges... And...” Speaking of this, Ye Xiao sighed.

”What?” Gu Jinlong noticed that Ye Xiao's expression was unusual, so he asked.

”Brother Gu, we are like old friends. You and I are truly congenial. I won't treat you as a stranger. Let me talk honestly.” Ye Xiao played sincere.

”Yes, please, Brother Feng.” Gu Jinlong acted like he also thought they were like old friends with a bright smile. Ye Xiao frowned and spoke bitterly, ”The so called dan-making... Brother Gu, you see, all the masters of dan-making have a great force supporting them. Right? Let's just think about those endless amount of failed dan beads. What are they? They are countless of precious treasures, aren't they?!”

Gu Jinlong nodded and agreed, ”Exactly. That's true.”

”And what is the price for all those wasted treasures? They are rare. And even if they are normal, it will still have a cost to collect them all, right? It needs money to buy them, right? Me and my master, how can we afford all those materials?”

Ye Xiao was upset.

”It is hard especially for my master. He has been keeping his purity so that he can produce the supreme dan beads. He doesn't want to meet people. He doesn't want to get into the society. He doesn't want to love a woman... He will rather die than become a dan-maker in the big sects. How can he possibly get supply for himself?”

While Ye Xiao was speaking, Gu Jinlong nodded.

”So... to produce some supreme dan beads, dan-makers might have to give up faster improvements with their capability! A dan-maker wants to improve, so he needs massive amount of materials that are offered by the powerful sects... Only with countless materials can the dan-makers produce more and more dan beads... But if he wants to produce supreme dan beads, he has to stay away from the martial world...”

”That is the main reason why all the so called 'masters of dan-making' have never truly achieved the pure top range!”

Ye Xiao sighed.

”It is a serious contradiction... A contradiction that can never be solved...” Gu Jinlong sighed too.

Because of what Ye Xiao just said, Gu Jinlong completely lost faith on what he had been thinking in mind.

”So...” Ye Xiao smiled bitterly, ”My master had no other choice, so he only made Pei-Yun Dan. He couldn't make other kinds of dan because we don't have enough materials, or because...”

Ye Xiao suddenly humphed and spoke proudly, ”If the materials were enough, Firm Spirit Dan, Spirit Gathering Dan, Bone Ablutionary Dan, Mai Converting Dan, Limit-breaking Dan, Earth Essence Dan, Cyan Cloud Dan, Sky Vessel Dan, Five Element Dan, Seven Emotion Dan, Spirit Cutting Dan, even the Nine-rolled Golden Dan... are all easy jobs for my master. When he becomes practiced enough, he can even produce the supreme Nine-rolled Golden Dan...”

Ye Xiao had just named out over seventy names of different kinds of dan from lower grade to higher grade. Gu Jinlong and Wan Zhenghao were surprised with lights in their eyes. It was like they were watching the most precious treasures in the world!

”Really?” Wan Zhenghao asked hurriedly.

”Humph!” Ye Xiao smiled and took out a purple jade bottle. He spoke blandly, ”You should know that not only Pei-Yuan Dan can be developed to the supreme level... Brothers, look... Tell me what this is?”

Gu Jinlong seriously took over the bottle and opened it. Suddenly, a thick white cloud rushed out and then completely covered his face.

Gu Jinlong had his sensations filled with a certain comfort that seeped deep into his bones.

A dan bead shining in golden glow actually flew out and stayed in the air. It was rolling slowly and shining brightly!

”... The Bo... Bone Ablutionary Dan!” Gu Jinlong's neck was trembling, and he spoke like he had difficulty in speaking. His mind blanked out as he looked straight at the dan cloud permeating in the air.

”Dan cloud... It truly is dan cloud...” Wan Zhenghao looked around the cloud and mist in the room. He was astonished. It was like he was watching a gold mountain coming to him.

”That's right. My master only used the minimum amount of materials he had to produce this supreme Bone Ablutionary Dan Bead!” Ye Xiao smiled proudly.

The next moment, he casually took over the bottle from Gu Jinlong and put the supreme dan bead back into the bottle. After that, he sealed the bottle.

Looking at the way Ye Xiao did that, Gu Jinlong and Wan Zhenghao's face quivered.

[How can you be so rude to the supreme dan bead? Do you want to break it?]

Gu Jinlong's eyes lit up with feverous glow.

[The Supreme Bone Ablutionary Dan Bead!

I just can't believe this is happening to me. We truly do not know what we will get to in our lives!]

Gu Jinlong had been cultivating for so many years. He was truly an experienced and farseeing man. Even though he wasn't able to match the Xiao Monarch's prowess, he was still better than all the residents in the Land of Han-Yang. However, even he himself had never seen such a treasure, not even in the Qing-Yun Realm!
