Ning Cheng suppressed the surprise in his heart and did not directly agree to Duan Gantai's proposal to exchange the Perpetual Moon Keys. Instead, he still spoke up, "Brother Duan, I'll use my None-to-depend-on to exchange for the Transfer Jade Talisman."
Duan Gantai replied with a dry voice, "Brother Ning must be joking."
How could he leave the Transfer Jade Talisman and the three Perpetual Moon Time Keys on Ning Cheng? Wouldn't that be inviting a wolf into the house?
Knowing that he couldn't take the None-to-depend-on Wine for free, Duan Gantai gritted his teeth and said, "Brother Ning, I'll give you two Starry Sky Essence Qi Spirit Veins in exchange for the None-to-depend-on Wine that Brother Ning gave me."
Ning Cheng's tone turned cold, "Starry Sky Essence Qi Spiritual Veins are good, but there are many of them within the starry skies. But I only have a single pot of None-to-depend-on Wine. Does Brother Duan think that a unique item is cheaper? "
"How much does Brother Ning want?" Duan Gantai gritted his teeth and asked.
"If you have 20 Starry Sky Spiritual Veins, I can consider the exchange ….." Ning Cheng knew that this person was asking for a lot. Wasn't business all about asking for sky-high prices and returning the money on the spot? On Earth, tens of thousands of bottles of wine could be bought for a few hundred yuan. It was just a matter of packaging.
He had experienced this himself. In the market, clothes were priced at more than a thousand dollars, but in the end, they were haggling and could be bought for one-tenth of the price.
Now that Duan Gantai proposed two Starry Sky Essence Qi Spirit Veins, he would multiply it by ten times. At most, they would just bargain again.
Duan Gantai took in a deep breath. He never thought that Ning Cheng would ask for such an exorbitant price. Although he still had about a hundred Starry Sky Essence Qi Spiritual Veins on him, he had saved them for cultivation in the Eternal Realm. How could they take out 20 of them just because of Ning Cheng's casual words?
"Brother Ning, I don't have that many. At most, I can give you three Starry Sky Essence Qi Spiritual Veins. If Brother Ning wants me to exchange something that I can't take out, then I can only refuse the transaction. "Duan Gantai spoke with a decisive tone.
When it came to bargaining in business, Duan Gantai and Ning Cheng couldn't even hold a candle to each other. If Duan Gantai insisted on two Starry Sky Essence Qi Spiritual Veins, Ning Cheng might really lower the price a bit. Not only did this guy not insist, he even added another condition. Even a fool knew that Duan Gantai had at least ten Starry Sky Essence Qi Spirit Veins on him. Otherwise, with Duan Gantai's temperament, it would have been impossible for him to take out three of them.
Ning Cheng once again stood up and spoke, "Since you are not willing to exchange, then forget it. Besides, I do not intend to exchange anything. I don't believe that I can't find Striking Order Heavenly Emperor. Striking Order is my friend. No matter what, I will save him. "
While speaking, Ning Cheng clapped his hands and sealed the Connecting Spirit Silk in front of Duan Gantai.
Duan Gantai felt anxious in his heart. He didn't think that Ning Cheng wouldn't have any leeway. Therefore, he stood up and said, "Brother Ning, I'll tell you the truth. I only have a total of ten Starry Sky Essence Qi Spirit Veins. Even if I gave you three of them, I would still have to grit my teeth. Does Brother Ning want me to go bankrupt? "
"Twenty Starry Sky Essence Qi Spiritual Veins, not negotiable. In addition, you will have to give me the jade talisman to enter the Time Wilderness. "Ning Cheng spoke with absolute certainty. Even if someone told him the truth, he couldn't trust Duan Gantai.
Duan Gantai hesitated for a full half-an-incense stick worth of time before gritting his teeth and speaking, "Okay, twenty is twenty. I'll give you my friend's ten Starry Sky Essence Qi Spirit Veins. It's fine if you want the teleportation jade talisman, but you can't take the spirit vein. "
Ning Cheng's heart sank. He didn't feel even the slightest bit surprised that Duan Gantai agreed to his conditions. He understood that he had fallen into a trap. Duan Gantai definitely had more than 50 Spiritual Veins. Based on his understanding of Duan Gantai, Duan Gantai had less than 50 Starry Sky Spiritual Veins. Therefore, he would never make a promise to exchange 20 Starry Sky Essence Qi Spirit Veins.
Where did Duan Gantai get so many Starry Sky Essence Qi Spiritual Veins? Could it be that this fellow had found a secret realm where a powerful being stored the spirit vein?
Seeing Ning Cheng not speaking, Duan Gantai spoke up again, "Brother Ning, choose one. Spiritual veins or jade talismans? If Brother Ning insists on having both of them, then forgive me for not accompanying you. "
At this point, Duan Gantai also ran out of patience.
Ning Cheng took in a deep breath, he originally wanted the Jade Talisman. The jade platform in the Temple of Time was much better than 20 Spiritual Veins. However, after thinking about it, he still felt that he should choose the Spiritual Veins. He could use the other two keys to exchange for the Jade Talisman with Duan Gantai in the future. Moreover, as long as he advanced to the Eternal Realm, he might be able to find Striking Order Heavenly Emperor in the Ancient Shadow Temple.
Thinking of this, Ning Cheng took out a black Perpetual Moon Time Key and said, "In that case, let's exchange it for 20 Starry Sky Essence Qi Spirit Veins."
Duan Gantai secretly felt disappointed. In fact, he wanted to exchange the teleportation jade talisman with Ning Cheng. He already had two teleportation jade talismans to enter the Time Wilderness. Even if he gave one to Ning Cheng, he wouldn't lose anything.
The two quickly finished the exchange. Ning Cheng gained 20 Starry Sky Essence Qi Spirit Veins, while Duan Gantai took back his Perpetual Moon Time Key.
Only Duan Gantai knew that he made a big profit. He used the Perpetual Moon Time Key as collateral to exchange for the None-to-depend-on Wine. Through the None-to-depend-on Wine, he obtained countless cultivation resources and even comprehended the None-to-depend-on Spirit Technique. As for the 20 Starry Sky Essence Qi Spirit Veins given to Ning Cheng, it wasn't even one-tenth of the resources in the Guardian Temple.
Seeing Duan Gantai about to leave, Ning Cheng suddenly spoke up, "Brother Duan, how about I exchange another key with Brother Duan for 20 Starry Sky Essence Qi Spirit Veins?"
Duan Gantai showed a smile and walked to the door of the room before turning around and saying, "Since I can be friends with Brother Ning, I naturally have no problems with my intelligence. I believe that Brother Ning also has no problems with your intelligence. If Brother Ning is willing to take out two keys to exchange with me, then I'm willing to consider it. "
For Duan Gantai, having one key to the Temple of Time or two keys to the Temple of Time made no difference. As long as he didn't have three keys to the Temple of Time, he would have to cooperate with Ning Cheng. Similarly, if Ning Cheng didn't have three keys to the Temple of Time, he would have to cooperate with him.
This fellow really did have a lot of Starry Sky Essence Qi Spirit Veins. At this moment, Ning Cheng felt an impulse to take out two keys to the Temple of Time and exchange it with Duan Gantai for 40 Starry Sky Essence Qi Spirit Veins and Duan Gantai's jade talisman. If that was the case, then he would have made a huge profit.
However, Ning Cheng didn't lose his rationality. With Duan Gantai's scheming nature, giving away the Temple of Time to the other party would definitely arouse Duan Gantai's suspicions.
Watching Duan Gantai leave, Ning Cheng didn't feel too happy in his heart. Duan Gantai had reached the full-circle of Life and Death Realm, and this time, he went to the auction for the Starry Sky Radish Grass. This fellow was much richer than him, and he couldn't compete with this fellow at all.
After a while, Ning Cheng muttered to himself, "You don't want my second key, but I'll give it to you."
… …
The largest planet in Night Essence Celestial River wasn't the main star, Thousand Cry Star, but Orchid Restraining Star.
Orchid Restraining Star was not only the largest planet in Night Essence Celestial River but also the largest planet in the entire Nine Jewels Starry Sky. Even within Grand Culmination Starry Sky, one couldn't find three planets larger than Orchid Restraining Star.
Although Orchid Restraining Star was huge, there weren't many cultivators living on Orchid Restraining Star. Compared to the entire Night Essence Celestial River, it was relatively small. Orchid Restraining Star not only had a much higher gravity compared to other planets, but the starry sky Spirit Qi here was also extremely thin.
The reason why Orchid Restraining Star became famous was that it had a famous trial grounds called Thorn Tooth Lake. Rather than a lake, Thorn Tooth Lake was more like a swamp. However, this swamp was a bit different from other places. Many places in it were filled with water. Therefore, Thorn Tooth Lake also had another name, Thorn Tooth Swamp.
Thorn Tooth Lake occupied nearly two-thirds of Orchid Restraining Star's area. But unlike the Devouring Bone Sea, Orchid Restraining Star could be inhabited normally. The only drawback was the lack of starry sky Spirit Qi and the high gravity.
Thorn Tooth Lake looked ordinary on the surface, but after entering Thorn Tooth Lake, one would find many places surrounded by natural array formations. Some places were shrouded in thick fog, and even Heaven Seated cultivators could only see within a certain range with their spiritual consciousness.
… …
For many people, Orchid Restraining Star's starry sky Spirit Qi seemed to have concentrated in Thorn Tooth Lake.
Therefore, Thorn Tooth Lake had become a good trial ground for ordinary cultivators in Night Essence Celestial River. In addition to many heavenly treasures, it also contained some high-value demonic beasts. If one was lucky, one could even find one or two Spirit Springs in Thorn Tooth Lake and stay here for secluded cultivation.
At this time, in a small mound in the depths of Thorn Tooth Lake, a black-robed woman curled up. Her aura was very unstable, indicating that she had suffered serious injuries. Even the wounds on her body hadn't healed.
Outside this mound, there was a low-grade concealment array disc. This array disc concealed all traces of her aura. Otherwise, people might have found her a long time ago.
Among the cultivators who came to Thorn Tooth Lake during this period, six out of ten people knew this female cultivator. Because she was called Yan Ji, a person wanted by many guilds in Night Essence Celestial River.
Yan Ji naturally knew that many people were looking for her because she killed a woman named Shangguan Man 'er. In fact, she only learned about Shangguan Man 'er's identity after killing Shangguan Man' er. Shangguan Man 'er was the beloved daughter of Night Essence Celestial River King Shangguan Xiang, and Shangguan Xiang doted on her. Now that Shangguan Xiang's daughter died, it would be strange if he let go of the murderer.
Yan Ji hadn't been in Nine Jewels Starry Sky for a day or two, so she naturally knew about Shangguan Xiang's strength. Shangguan Xiang was a late-stage Life and Death cultivator and one of the most powerful Celestial River Kings in Nine Jewels Starry Sky. Not only that, but Shangguan Xiang was also Shangguan Fei's younger brother. And Nine Jewels Starry Sky's Eternal Starry Sky Emperor was none other than Shangguan Fei.
After learning about this, Yan Ji knew that she would die without a doubt. She fled to the depths of Thorn Tooth Lake, but even so, it only saved her life temporarily. Who could save Yan Ji after offending a Starry Sky Emperor?
In fact, Yan Ji's guess was right. If Shangguan Xiang wasn't in Night Essence Celestial River, Shangguan Xiang would have come to Thorn Tooth Lake to look for Yan Ji in person.
Taking out a starry sky spirit grass and swallowing it, Yan Ji forced herself to circulate qi to heal. Since entering the starry sky, she had put in ten times or even a hundred times more effort than ordinary people. She really didn't want to die like this. But even if she had to do it all over again, she would still kill that perverted Shangguan Man 'er.
