"Mo Wen, how is my father's condition?"
Chen Zikuang asked impatiently. Originally, he thought that there was no hope. Now that hope had arrived, it was like a dream.
"He's alright. Continue the treatment. If the conditions are right, there is a possibility of a full recovery," Mo Wen nodded and said plainly.
"What did you say to Old Grandfather? He actually agreed to let you go to the treasure trove! "
Chen Zikuang looked at Mo Wen strangely. His face was a little gloomy. He had only been here for a day and he actually wanted to go to the Intentionless Sect's treasure trove. Who knew what he would do?
"Treating an illness requires resources. The better the medicine, the stronger the effect. As the Deputy Sect Leader of the Intentionless Sect, you should understand this very well."
Mo Wen said earnestly, "Now that Old Grandfather Chen is seriously ill, we naturally don't care about the small details. We must use some things and think of ways to use some things that we don't have."
"What do you want? I can ask someone to go to the treasure trove to get it for you. "
Chen Zikuang looked at Mo Wen cautiously. No matter how he looked at it, this youth's motive was somewhat impure. The nicer he sounded, the more likely he had an ulterior motive.
"There's no need. I am not afraid of trouble. It's no big deal for me to go there personally. However, since I have put in so much effort, if I cure Old Grandfather Chen, your Intentionless Sect should at least give me a consultation fee, right? "
Mo Wen raised his eyebrows and said plainly.
"There is still a consultation fee?" Chen Zikuang's eyes widened.
"Otherwise, do you think that nowadays, when we go out for a meal, we have to tip the waiter? As the dignified Deputy Sect Leader of the Intentionless Sect, you can't even afford the consultation fee, right?"
Mo Wen said plainly. The Intentionless Sect was so rich. If he didn't rob the rich to help the poor, it would be intolerable.
"How much is the consultation fee?" Chen Zikuang asked with a bitter smile. Previously, Mo Wen had already stated his conditions. Now, he actually opened his mouth to ask for a consultation fee. No matter how he looked at it, it felt like he was being taken advantage of.
"You are all otherworldly experts. Don't take out the normal gold and silver items. Just use the spiritual stones to exchange." Mo Wen laughed.
He was concerned about the spiritual stones of the Intentionless Sect. The Intentionless Sect could maintain such a huge Snow Storm Stratagem for half a month. They must have a lot of spiritual stones. If he didn't get some from the Intentionless Sect, he wouldn't be satisfied.
"What!"
Chen Zikuang cried out in shock and shook his head vigorously. "No, I can't give you the spirit stones."
Even in the Intentionless Sect, spiritual stones were very important strategic resources. Every piece of spiritual stone was very important to a sect. Activating the Snow Storm Array this time had consumed a terrifying number of Spirit Stones. It was not enough to begin with, and he was afraid that it would not last long. It was impossible to give it to Mo Wen.
To the Intentionless Sect, spiritual stones were a life-saving item!
"You're not giving it to me? If you give me one spirit stone, I can make Grandpa Chen recover in half a year. If you give me two spirit stones, I can make him recover in five months … If you give me ten spirit stones, I can guarantee that Grandpa Chen will recover completely in a month … "
Mo Wen said slowly as he looked at Chen Zikuang with a smile on his face.
Upon hearing this, Chen Zikuang's mouth twitched. This Mo Wen was obviously extorting him. She could have cured the old master within a month, but she deliberately said so.
"If you can cure the old man in half a month, I can consider giving you ten … spirit stones."
Chen Zikuang said with some heartache. Those were spiritual stones. Although the Intentionless Sect controlled two spiritual stone veins, they could only mine the raw ore and could not smelt the finished spiritual stones. Hence, the only way to obtain spiritual stones was to trade with the Huatian Palace.
However, it was not easy to trade with the Huatian Palace. The two spiritual stone lodes that the Intentionless Sect controlled could only be exchanged for one spiritual stone from the Huatian Palace with the spiritual stone raw ore produced in three days.
Even if the entire sect worked hard for a year, they could only exchange for about a hundred spiritual stones.
However, if Mo Wen could cure the old master within half a month, spending ten spiritual stones was not a big deal. Once the old master recovered, perhaps the crisis of the Intentionless Sect could be easily resolved.
"To cure him within half a month, I need twenty spiritual stones."
Mo Wen shook his head, looking as though there was no room for discussion. Then, he changed the topic and said, "Of course, if Deputy Sect Leader Chen is willing to pay fifty spiritual stones, I am confident that I can cure the old master within a week."
The corner of Mo Wen's mouth curled into a smile. He looked at Chen Zikuang with a smile, looking as though he was not afraid that he would not agree.
"What! A week? Are you serious? "
A glint of joy flashed in Chen Zikuang's eyes. This news was simply too unexpected. If the old master could be cured within a week, the crisis of the Intentionless Sect would most likely be resolved smoothly.
He believed that if the Sacred Flame Sect did not go all out, it would not be a problem to hold them off for another week.
"Of course, I am not joking."
Mo Wen chuckled. If Old Master Chen knew that Mo Wen had just extorted him and was now bargaining with Chen Zikuang, he would most likely be so angry that he would vomit blood.
"Are you confident?" Chen Zikuang asked with a frown. This was simply too important to the Intentionless Sect.
"As long as I have spiritual stones, I am confident," Mo Wen said calmly.
Chen Zikuang laughed bitterly. He shook his head and said, "Alright, fifty spiritual stones. I hope you can keep your word."
"Then it's settled. Let's go. Let's go and see what good things are in the treasure trove of the Intentionless Sect … Hmm, good medicinal herbs."
Mo Wen finally smiled and said very satisfactorily.
Chen Zikuang's face darkened. Right now, he had already somewhat understood Mo Wen's character. Mo Wen's skin was simply too thick. If he were to bring him into the treasure trove now, the consequences … he simply did not dare to believe it …
However, in order to treat the old master's injuries as soon as possible, Chen Zikuang could only bear with the pain in his heart. He gritted his teeth and brought Mo Wen to the treasure trove of the Intentionless Sect.
The two of them walked towards the palace behind the Intentionless Sect, one in front and one behind.
"Huh, what is that?" When they were passing through a square, a glint of surprise flashed in Mo Wen's eyes. It was because he had discovered that there were many stone-like things piled up in the square. They were piled up in different categories. Some of them were simply like a small mountain.
"Raw ore," Chen Zikuang said weakly.
Chen Zikuang said weakly. Although he had yet to reach the treasure trove, he could still imagine the scene that made his heart ache.
"Spiritual stone raw ore."
Mo Wen turned his head slightly and saw a pile of greyish-white stones of various sizes. His pupils shrank slightly and the expression on his face immediately became interesting.
It was actually a pile of spiritual stone raw ore. Didn't that mean that there was actually a spiritual stone raw ore in the Green Ancient Mystery Dimension?
For a moment, Mo Wen felt that his throat was a little dry. It was a spiritual stone raw ore! Even the smallest spiritual stone raw ore was no different from a mountain of gold and silver to him. The Intentionless Sect actually had a spiritual stone raw ore. Previously, he had only asked for fifty spiritual stones. Wasn't that a little too kind?
"You know about spiritual stone raw ore?"
A glint of surprise flashed in Chen Zikuang's eyes. Wasn't this Mo Wen an ancient martial art practitioner from the main space? The main space was lacking in resources. There should be very few things like spiritual stone raw ore.
The spiritual energy in the main space was very rare. It was unknown whether there were things like spiritual stone raw ore.
"Why are you piling these spiritual stone raw ore in the square?"
Mo Wen glanced at Chen Zikuang. He could not be bothered to answer his idiotic question. Looking at the pile of spiritual stone raw ore, he licked his dry lips and asked.
"Originally, these spiritual stone raw ore were supposed to be transported to the Huatian Palace. However, because the Sacred Flame Sect has sealed off the Intentionless City, there is no way out. The spiritual stone raw ore cannot be stored in the warehouse, so it can only be piled outside, "Chen Zikuang said helplessly.
If the Sacred Flame Sect had not sealed off the Intentionless Sect, these spiritual stone raw ore would have long been transported to the Huatian Palace. Who knows, they might have been able to exchange for another batch of spiritual stones.
"How many spiritual stones can these spiritual stone raw ore be exchanged for?" Mo Wen's eyes flashed.
"This pile can be exchanged for about seventeen or eighteen spiritual stones. It is already equivalent to the output of a spiritual stone raw ore for two months."
Chen Zikuang glanced at the pile of spiritual stone raw ore and roughly estimated.
"Blackmail! It is really too blackmail. "
The corner of Mo Wen's mouth twitched. He was speechless. So many spiritual stone raw ore could only be exchanged for a dozen spiritual stones. This was practically plundering and exploitation. In the Immortal Cultivation world, a dozen spiritual stones would not even be enough to pay the miners. It was laughable that the Intentionless Sect was still happily working for the Huatian Palace.
What was a monopoly? This was a monopoly!
Ancient martial arts sects like the Intentionless Sect could only excavate the spiritual stone raw ore but could not refine it into spiritual stones. Hence, they could only exchange it with the Huatian Palace.
Such a pile of spiritual stone raw ore could be refined into at least a few thousand spiritual stones. If the Intentionless Sect knew the value of the spiritual stone raw ore, who knew what they would think.
However, Mo Wen could not say anything about this, nor did he dare to.
"Let's go. The treasure trove is in front."
Along the way, Mo Wen discovered that there were all kinds of spiritual stones piled up in the square. Many of them were materials used by the Immortal Cultivation world for refining weapons. They could be used to refine magical treasures or magical instruments with special functions.
However, they were all basic materials and there was nothing precious.
The two of them walked one after another into an underground treasure trove. There were all kinds of medicinal herbs piled up in the treasure trove. Many of the medicinal herbs in the main space were rare and precious medicinal herbs.
However, in the Intentionless Sect's treasure trove, they were like straw, piled up randomly on the ground.
"Do you have the medicinal herbs you want here?" Chen Zikuang asked.
Mo Wen shook his head decisively. Although the medicinal herbs here were precious, they were not spiritual medicine. He was here for the spiritual medicine and would not do something like picking up sesame seeds and losing a watermelon.
"Normal medicinal herbs won't work. Only spiritual medicine will be useful," Mo Wen said plainly.
"Then follow me …" Chen Zikuang laughed bitterly.
Chen Zikuang laughed bitterly. He endured his heartache and brought Mo Wen to a small door.
Behind the small door, there were layers of defensive measures. The two of them turned here and there before finally arriving at a secret chamber.
The secret chamber was not big. It was about two hundred square meters. There were many shelves made of sandalwood and on the shelves were many wooden boxes.
Mo Wen roughly checked. Almost every wooden box had a stalk of spiritual medicine. There were two to three thousand wooden boxes in the secret chamber!
The smile on Mo Wen's face grew brighter. He had struck gold! He had really struck gold this time! (To be continued.)
