“I’m rather glad that you didn’t devaluate its value.” Davis let out a chuckle, “For the next ten milliliters, I’m willing to exchange as long as the item you brought out is Low-Level King Grade in terms of value on top of catching my eyes.”
Drake’s eyes lowered as he descended into contemplation.
“I’m willing to take out the Bone-Chilling Ganoderma Tree Sap!” Kara answered instead, causing Drake’s eyes to go wide.
“What? Are you sure?”
Kara solemnly nodded her head as she turned to look at Davis, “Bone-Chilling Ganoderma Tree Sap is a nutrient sap that helps to temper one’s meridians to yin attribute. It is beneficial to women, especially if you for a woman who trains in Yin Laws like me.”
Davis’s expression brightened. He instantly became interested as he knew this ingredient.
“Davis, you know how changing the attribute of our meridians is a difficult task. However, once you changed your meridians to match your cultivation manual, the flow of energy in the meridians, the prowess of the techniques, all will experience a qualitative change. I’m sure you know that I’m not exaggerating this for-“
“I know! I’m sold!” Davis did not drag it out as he already knew the effects, “Its grade in terms of value is a bit lower, but it can be compensated with quantity. How much are you willing to trade? It’s better if it can temper all the meridians in the body.”
Kara became taken aback. She looked at Davis, not expecting this to be easily settled. However, her expression fell. The quantity was the problem.
“By any chance,” Davis narrowed his eyes, “Is the Bone-Chilling Ganoderma Tree Sap an ingredient for increasing your Exquisite Nine Yin Body?”
Kara’s rosy lips rose agape before she nodded her head, “It’s a sub-ingredient but important nonetheless. It is at least useful to me until I reach the Law Dominion Stage.”
“As for how much is required to refine the meridians of the whole body to the yin attribute, that depends on what stage your woman is at…”
“High-Level Law Seed Stage…”
Kara smiled as she relaxed, “If that is the case, fifty milliliters should suffice-“
“Also, she is at Peak-Level Martial Ascendance Stage…” Davis couldn’t help but awkwardly remind.
Kara’s words were caught in her tongue, becoming dumbfounded at his words. She sighed, feeling that he had used this mysterious nectar to feed his woman to the Peak-Level Martial Ascendance Stage.
“Well, at least, it’s a good thing that she’s not at the Martial Master Stage like you. Otherwise, the Bone-Chilling Ganoderma Tree Sap would not be able to temper her meridians into possessing the yin attribute as its efficacy is limited to the peak of the sixth stage, Peak-Level Sky Grade…” Kara wryly smiled.
“Hehe… Damn…” Davis couldn’t help but scratch his head in awkwardness.
He had long been hitting with a few bottlenecks that people wouldn’t usually encounter because a cultivator’s Body Tempering Cultivation wouldn’t be greater than their Essence Gathering Cultivation. Now, due to the nectar, almost everyone with him would start facing the same problem, including Natalya.
“We have hit a wall…” Kara frowned as she looked at Drake, “Drake, there’s no way even five hundred milliliters of Bone-Chilling Ganoderma Tree Sap would help. We need to have at least a liter of Bone-Chilling Ganoderma Tree Sap to help his woman temper her meridians. For that, I need your lotus points.”
“Sure! Take it all!!!” Drake readily passed his genuine core disciple plate, and Kara did the same.
Once their core disciple plates made contact, Drake’s core disciple plate glowed before Kara’s core disciple shone before both of their lights faded.
“Davis, after visiting the Treasury, I can secure more Bone-Chilling Ganoderma Tree Sap. Until then, I request you to wait for some time.”
“No problem, as I’ll be here for a while, analyzing the information I got from the Passion Library.”
Kara nodded her head as she stood up and quickly made her way outside.
Davis watched her leave before he turned to stare at Drake.
“What do you think the exchange rate should be?”
Drake descended into contemplation before his lips moved, “I assume that you’ve decided to keep the exchange rate at ten milliliters of nectar per hundred and fifty milliliters of Bone-Chilling Ganoderma Tree Sap?”
Davis shook his head, “Ten milliliters of nectar for a hundred milliliters of Bone-Chilling Ganoderma Tree Sap.”
Drake blinked before he appeared to be inwardly moved. It wouldn’t be strange if Davis decided to keep the exchange rate at one milliliter of nectar for twenty milliliters of Bone-Chilling Ganoderma Tree Sap, but he didn’t.
If Davis did so, he wanted to at least bring it down to a hundred and twenty milliliters for ten milliliters of nectar, but it was unexpected that Davis directly dropped it to 10:1 instead of 15:1.
“Damn, man. You’re gonna make me cry…” Drake facepalmed.
“Well, friends get special privileges in trade…” Davis laughed in a devious manner, “Right?”
Drake laughed with him, “Alright, alright. If I get a rich resource, I’ll sell it to you at a low price…”
“Damn, you really don’t have something that extraordinary like the nectar?”
“I don’t!” Drake hurriedly shook his head. However, his expression became solemn, “In a year, I would be going to a mini-realm along with Kara. There, I might have a few lucky chances to gain some extraordinary resources.”
“Mini-realm!” Davis exclaimed in astonishment.
The Forsaken Phoenix Realm was also designated as a mini-realm but also a danger zone due to the unbreakable entrance.
“Is there an Immortal Inheritance there?” Davis openly asked.
“Of course not…” Drake laughed, “It is said that it once held an Immortal Inheritance. However, after a legendary person managed to become its inheritor, the mini-realm changed into one of a tempering zone that would only open once in a century. However, the limit is still in place, and only experts below the seventh stage can enter.”
“I see…” Davis uttered with a bit of disappointment. If it held an Immortal Inheritance, he really would’ve considered breaking into this particular mini-realm, but the moment he heard about its entrance limit, he forgot about it and instead focused on another curious point.
“Who is that legendary person? The first Ancestor of the Dual Lotus Manor?”
“I have no idea, but it’s probably some old fart from ancient times…”
“Hahaha…”
Davis laughed along with Drake, both knowing that they had no respect for ancient times’ ancestors.
“Drake, since you have nothing else to offer, I want you to check if the Dual Lotus Abode’s Treasury has this ingredient.”
“Oh?” Drake narrowed his eyes, “If it’s something you’re asking, it sure must be priceless.”
Davis wanted to say that it might not be exaggerated, but he continued, “Perhaps… In any case, it’s a rather dangerous cultivation resource, capable of turning the surrounding ten kilometers into an icy hell when threatened!”
“What the fuck!? Dude, you’re asking me about an Emperor Grade Ingredient? I’m not even at the Seventh Stage…” Drake looked as if he was going to cry but possessed no tears.
Davis nodded his head as he chuckled, “Indeed, it’s a Low-Level Emperor Grade Ingredient, to be exact. It grows and blooms in a greater yin environment, and possibly in icy environments too…”
“The name of this ingredient is… the Forsaken Yin Lotus.”
“Forsaken Yin Lotus…” Drake repeated these words, recalling if he had seen these words in the Dual Lotus Abode Treasury before.
Davis frowned in anticipation.
If the Dual Lotus Abode didn’t have it, he planned on asking Ancestor Tirea Snow for this important ingredient.
Natalya importantly needed this main ingredient to cultivating her manual, the Forsaken Yin Lotus Manual. Once she reaches a bottleneck at the very peak of the Sixth Stage, she would need the Forsaken Yin Lotus to continue.
Otherwise, her breakthrough into the Law Dominion Stage would be weaker than the ultimate prowess she could reach.
The manual itself was named the Forsaken Yin Lotus Manual, so one could see the importance of this particular ingredient needed in order to circulate her energy with this specific manual.
Furthermore, according to the Forsaken Yin Lotus Manual itself, it is a Peak-Level Emperor Grade Manual that seems to proceed, possess a smooth transition into the fabled Immortal Stage. Fallen Heaven also seemed to possess the Immortal Section of it, but since he set the condition to Emperor Grade when he asked for the manual, he only received the mortal manual.
If Natalya was able to absorb the Forsaken Yin Lotus, it was little of doubt that she would align with him and Evelynn in Essence Gathering Cultivation’s prowess!
In truth, if he did not work on his Essence Gathering Cultivation and Lightning Laws anymore, it was possible that Natalya would become way stronger than him with all these resources he had gathered for her.
While Davis was thinking all this, Drake seemed to have contacted Kara using a messaging talisman and told her to check if the Treasury possessed the Forsaken Yin Lotus.
Davis helped explain the specifics, details, and characteristics of the Forsaken Yin Lotus since he had seen it in the manual.
Kara searched for that grand-sounding ingredient in the Treasury for a few seconds before her voice echoed.
“I found it…”
Davis’s expression became one of excitement as he stood up and raised his hand before pulling it back in victory.
The Nethersnow Spirit Tear Drops, Low-Level Emperor Grade Yin Essence, and the small lake with its diluted essence.
These resources were all something that would greatly help Natalya!
Now, if he could obtain the Bone-Chilling Ganoderma Tree Sap and Forsaken Yin Lotus, Natalya’s path till the peak of Law Sea Stage was basically set!
Drake assuredly smiled at Davis and asked, “How many lotus points is it?”
“…”
On the other side, Kara went silent for a moment before she uttered, “Two million…”
“…”
Drake’s face became blank!
Looking at him, Davis’s expression also became blank as a bad feeling enveloped him!
