Chapter 40 Trouble? (1/2)
Supreme Sword Sect.
One of the peaks inside the Sect, there are tens or maybe a hundred gates adorned by gold and jewelry, a majestic aura can be felt surging out of the peak. display might and pressure.
A youth is walking towards one of the gates.
”Master, I've returned.” The youth spoke, kneeling on the ground as he bowed his head in respect.
”You may rise.” A voice of an old man sounded, with a grainy tone.
The youth stood up as he looked at the gate and spoke: ”Thank you, Master.”
After he spoke, there is a period of silence until the gate slowly opened; ”How was your tempering with the outside World?”
The old man is wearing the same robe as the youth, but it has greater designs, signifying his own status within the Supreme Sword Sect, an Elder ranked within the top 10 of their power.
”Master, it has been doing great, I even went to the borders of the Northern Star Sect, I've faced with many Spiritual Beasts, taking at least a hundred Beast Cores of gold ranked demon beast.” The youth replied.
If Mo Xie this young man, he can clearly remember it, maybe, it is Zuo Tian, the one that barged in the Auction weeks ago.
”It has been?” The old man asked, touching his beard, he continued: ”Had there been any accidents that occurred?”
Hearing the old man asked, Zuo Tian smiled, but it immediately vanished as he spoke: ”Yes Master, I visited one of the Cities under the Northern Star Sect, I went to an auction.”
”What happened then?” The old man asked.
”It when a low-ranked Earth Grade skill appeared, they do not know of Demon Beast Core's uses, hence I tried to explain, but then...”
”Then?”
”Then, the esteemed guest from that auction house became enraged, pressuring us with his might, the aura he releases is also on par with Master's, hence I made the decision, to apologize immediately.” Zuo Tian 'explained'.
The old man frowned, clearly feeling enraged; 'his disciple was being kind enough to explain them the uses of the demon spirit core yet that man dare to insult this man's disciple! Unforgivable!'
Zuo Tian smirked, but it immediately vanished and added: ”That senior also told me to leave the most precious thing in my possession before I leave, I have no other choice Master, I left Master's precious gift when I was accepted, the grade 1 soup weapon 'Ten Fragments of Heavens' to appease that senior's anger.”
The old man frowned: ”Hmmp! is there anything else that he had said? His background, his name.”
Zuo Tian nodded his head and replied: ”Master, He said that he came from the Heavenly Samsara Sect, his name is Duan Tian.”
The old man nodded; 'Heavenly Samsara Sect? I have not heard of such a sect before, maybe it is a top sect from another Kingdom, Duan Tian... Duan... DUAN!?'
The old man opened his eyes widely. 'Surnamed Duan, I just wish that it is not that Clan, a famous clan from the far south, the Vermillion Flame Empire's Duan Clan, but I have not heard of a sect that's called the Heavenly Samsara Sect before.'
Zuo Tian smiled, he looked at his Master, seemingly happy at his Master's expression.
The old man looked at Zuo Tian and spoke: ”I will have to talk about it with the Patriarch, go and train, Once I confirm something, I will head there immediately.”
”Yes Master.” Zuo Tian replied as he started to walk out of the Peak.

Alchemy Association, Mu Ye's courtyard.
”Grandmaster Mo, is there anything you need of this old bag of bones?” Mu Ye asked as he massaged his hands.
Mo Xie smiled as he directly went to the point; ”I would like to know if there is a way that I can gain a lot of Spirit Stones.”
”Oh of course, as long as... as long...” Mu Ye's voice stuttered, his brain waves still processing the question.
”Spirit Stones?!”
Mo Xie smiled as he nodded: ”Yes, I will need at least 100 pieces of it.”
”100... 100...” Mu Ye kept stuttering.
A single piece of Spirit Stone would cost at least 1,000 gold taels, and that would be the low quality one, there are three kinds of Spirit Stones, low-quality, mid-quality, and high-quality ones.
A Spirit Stone is filled with Spiritual Energy, uses, of course, is for cultivators, the World is filled with Spiritual Energy, and that is the medium of all Cultivators to possess the power to wield elemental powers.
Spiritual Stones are stones that have an attrition with Spiritual Energy, and for millions of years, these stones are gathering this energy, making them a treasure for Cultivators.
Surroundings with Spiritual Energy and an addition of Spiritual Stones, they will be able to take two times the amount, they will have two sources to gather Spiritual Energy.
”I know that there aren't any Spiritual Stones in this City, all of the people here are trading them to the Sects or the Royal Kingdom in exchange for some resources or treasures, right?” Mo Xie said.
Mu Ye nodded as he replied: ”Yes, that is the case, whenever we find some spirit stones, we would hoard them and trade them with the Sects or the Royal Kingdom.”
”Then, I would also like to buy Spiritual Stones, is there any way I can?” Mo Xie replied.
