802 The Exchange of Life Essences! (2/2)
Worried that the donkey couldn't control its mouth and would eat something it wasn't supposed to, thereby bringing trouble to himself, Wang Baole thought for a moment and stored the donkey, who was visibly excited, into his storage bag.
Little Wu is fine, this child doesn't eat anything he sees. Wang Baole coughed. As he was about to ask the females more questions, their gazes turned towards Little Wu, and their eyes became visibly brighter. There were even some who were whispering to one another. This scene made Wang Baole feel displeased in his heart. As for Little Wu, he was also visibly trembling with fear. Looking towards Wang Baole, he wanted to speak, but he stopped himself.
Just like that, under the invitation of this place's female cultivator, Wang Baole brought Little Wu to the nearest fruit-like planet. That place wasn't very different from a real planet. There were mountain valleys and rivers, the air was clear, and Spirit Qi was abundant. Green plants covered the entire planet, causing the place to be covered with fog perennially, as though it was a paradise.
Through the fog, one could faintly make out many treehouses on the ground. Besides that, Wang Baole also saw the mountain ranges on the planet. They even contained some minerals that were extremely valuable in the Divine Eye civilization. There was such a huge amount of minerals that many were exposed to the elements.
At the same time, many trees bore fruit. Although Wang Baole didn't do much research on elixir refinement, he still saw what some precious herbs looked like in the Divine Eye civilization's ancient literature. With a simple sweep of his gaze, he actually saw seven to eight different extremely valuable medicinal fruits.
So rich! Wang Baole's heart beat faster. After blinking, he pondered about whether he could trade for some here.
Bringing this thought with him, Wang Baole also saw some winged children on the way to the planet. Their little faces peeked out from the fog occasionally as they looked towards Wang Baole and company curiously before quickly going back into the fog. As they did so, sounds of frolicking spread in waves.
This scene would make anyone's soul calm down unwittingly. Wang Baole also heaved a sigh of relief. He noticed that the general atmosphere of the vine civilization was the same as what he scouted out previously. According to the records of the ancient literature that Wang Baole read in the Divine Eye civilization, when meeting such kind civilizations, so long as one didn't do anything taboo, they would normally not be in any danger.
This was actually true. Wang Baole was invited onto that planet and entered a palace meant for welcoming guests on one of the mountain peaks out of the many mountains. When he entered, spirit fruit, wine, and other delicacies that Wang Baole hadn't seen before and couldn't name but felt could be eaten were served by the vine civilization's female cultivators.
Those female cultivators still all had huge arms, round waists, and majestic auras. After becoming used to it, Wang Baole's previous feelings of shock and fear lessened. So after pondering for a moment, he cupped his fists courteously while speaking towards the Spirit Immortal female who received him.
”Senior Ling Shan, is it possible to trade for some materials here?”
Hearing that, the Spirit Immortal female laughed. After raising her right hand, a jade slip appeared in her giant hand, and she passed it to Wang Baole.
”Fellow Daoist Long Nanzi, while our vine civilization remains a neutral civilization, we also provide fair trade deals for visitors from all civilizations. So long as you have enough plant stones, you can exchange them for any of the items listed here.”
After hearing that, Wang Baole's eyes shone. After taking a look at the jade slip, his heart unwittingly beat faster. Truly, the types of items listed in the jade slip were so comprehensive that it exceeded his knowledge. He hadn't heard of many of the materials listed inside.
And every type had a corresponding number of plant stones required to exchange for it. It could range from one to thousands and even to hundreds of thousands. The most expensive item of all was an Eternal Star Pill!
It was worth more than three million plant stones!
Wang Baole blinked, raised his head to look at the female, and asked courteously, ”Senior Ling Shan, may I know the exchange rate between plant stones and Spirit Stones?”
Faced with Wang Baole's inquiry, Ling Shan smiled and shook her head while saying, ”Fellow Daoist Long Nanzi, Spirit Stones cannot be exchanged for plant stones. Plant stones are an item unique to the vine civilization. There's only one way to exchange for them. That is… exchanging for them using your life essence!”
