After splitting up with Ma Shangsi, Lu Ye wandered around for half a day without any results. Suddenly, he saw a few figures gathered in front of a stall. The stall owner was a dignified woman. Lu Ye didn't know what she was selling, but she had actually attracted so many people.
Lu Ye walked over to join in the fun. As he approached, he glanced at the items on the stall. After listening for a while, he finally understood what kind of good stuff was being sold here.
A White Moon Crystal!
Fundamentally speaking, a White Moon Crystal was a Star Beast's Essence Core. However, it was different from ordinary Essence Cores. Although 99% of Star Beast Essence Cores had many uses, they couldn't be directly refined and absorbed by cultivators. In the entire universe, only a few types of Star Beast Essence Cores could be refined by cultivators. These Star Beast Essence Cores were extremely beneficial to cultivators.
The White Moon Crystal was one of these types of Star Beast Essence Cores. The benefits it could bring were something that almost all Yue Yao scrambled for. This was because it was a treasure that could improve the quality of one's Essence Core.
The quality of one's Essence Core was directly related to the efficiency of a Yue Yao's cultivation. Generally speaking, when a Yue Yao first formed, the quality of their Essence Cores wouldn't be too high. Basically, they wouldn't be able to satisfy the Yue Yao's cultivation requirements. Thus, Yue Yao would have to think of ways to improve the quality of their Essence Cores until they met the requirements.
Although there weren't as many Yue Yao in the universe as there were Star Mansions, there were still quite a few of them. Everyone needed treasures, so the rarer an item was, the more valuable it was.
This piece of White Moon Crystal was about the size of a fist. As soon as the stall owner displayed it, many Yue Yao immediately came forward to inquire about its price. However, after learning about the price, most of them left. Only a small number of them continued to haggle with the stall owner.
However, the woman clearly had no intention of relenting. She insisted on the price, causing the Yue Yao who had their eyes on this White Moon Crystal to feel helpless.
Some of them even revealed vicious expressions. Clearly, they wanted to wait for this woman to leave the market and secretly attack her.
Lu Ye was naturally very interested in this White Lunar Crystal. He had never seen this thing before, mainly because he had no use for it. Now that he had Yue Yao, his needs were even greater than Yue Yao's. He still didn't know what tier his spiritual source had to reach in order to satisfy his cultivation needs.
This price was indeed a little expensive.. a whole 20,000,000 Spirit Jades, which was comparable to the price of an Eight Star Transcendent Treasure.
However, in the end, magic treasures were external forces, while the source of one's art was one's own foundation. Thus, it was not suitable for such a comparison.
However, twenty million Spirit Jades was indeed a lot. Even Yue Yao usually didn't have that much wealth. After all, Yue Yao's cultivation expenditure was much greater than Xingxiu's. Thus, even though it was easier for them to obtain cultivation resources, they actually didn't have much left.
For example, the white-haired old man from the Divine Wind Sect, as a leader of space pirates who robbed people everywhere, only had a net worth of about ten million spiritual jades.
Lu Ye could gather all the Spirit Jades and Spirit Crystals he had on him, but if he did that, he would really become a pauper.
As the saying goes, as long as you have food in your hand, you won't panic. If a cultivator didn't have spare Spirit Jades and Spirit Crystals, they wouldn't be able to find them in case of an emergency.
When the cultivators who were bargaining with the woman stall owner saw that they were unable to gain any advantage, they could only give up and gradually disperse.
Lu Ye stayed behind alone.
The woman glanced at him and said expressionlessly, "Twenty million spirit jades, no bargaining." If it weren't for the fact that she urgently needed Spirit Jades, she wouldn't have taken out such a treasure to sell. She had obtained it by chance and was planning to keep it for her own use.
"I didn't bargain!" Lu Ye replied and continued to wait.
After a while, Ma Shangsi walked over in high spirits and said excitedly, "Holy Sage, do you think this thing will work?"
He had just pledged his allegiance to Lu Ye and received Lu Ye's precious blood, so his future was bright. Ma Shangsi was eager to perform meritorious deeds and was quite lucky. He really did find a good thing on the other side of this market and immediately bought it.
He handed over a storage ring.
Lu Ye took it and probed it with his Divine Sense. He found that it was a black, rock-like object the size of several water tanks.
"What is this?" Lu Ye asked.
Ma Shangsi said, "Reporting to Holy Sage, when some realms shatter, they will leave behind some remains. Of course, most of these remains are worthless, but there are a small number of them that still contain the foundation of that realm. This thing is the remains of a shattered realm. Although its quality doesn't seem to be very good, it has the same effect as the Realm Eater's crystal core."
Lu Ye had asked him to find something similar to the Realm Eater's crystal core, something that could improve the foundation of a realm. However, Realm Eater's crystal core was extremely rare, so it wasn't easy to find one.
In fact, this kind of realm's remains were more common.
Lu Ye nodded slightly and said, "Not bad!" He then put the ring away.
Ma Shangsi was overjoyed to be praised. He was a discerning person, so when he saw Lu Ye standing in front of such a stall, he asked enthusiastically, "Holy Sage, what good thing have you taken a fancy to?"
Lu Ye didn't speak, but the woman stall owner opened her mouth and said in a cold tone, "One White Moon Crystal, do you want to buy it?"
When Ma Shangsi heard this, he immediately understood. The Holy Sage's cultivation was at the early stage of Yue Yao, so she obviously wanted to improve the quality of her art source if she wanted to buy this White Moon Crystal.
Immediately, he cautiously asked for the price.
Then, his face darkened and he shouted angrily, "Something like the White Moon Crystal only sells for around 15 million in the Ten Thousand Elephant Sea. How come it's 20 million here?"
Lu Ye couldn't help but glance at Ma Shangsi. He didn't expect this guy to be so familiar with the prices in the Ten Thousand Elephant Sea. It was obvious that he had been to the Ten Thousand Elephant Sea before.
The woman didn't quarrel with him and only said indifferently, "If you think the Ten Thousand Elephant Sea is cheap, you can buy it there."
Ma Shangsi didn't know what to say.
He gave Lu Ye a look and said, "Holy Sage, there's no need to waste your money. Let's go."
Lu Ye nodded. Although he was interested in the White Moon Crystal, he wasn't interested in it if he was going to be taken advantage of. After all, the difference of five million Spirit Jades wasn't small. It was no wonder that Yue Yao didn't have any intention of buying it even though she was tempted.
He stayed here because he wanted to wait for Ma Shangsi to come and buy it for him. After all, the Spirit Jades of his Blood Warrior were equal to his own.
However, now that he knew the true price of the White Moon Crystal, there was no need for him to buy it. It wouldn't be too late to buy it when he returned to the Ten Thousand Elephant Sea.
After walking for a while, Ma Shangsi suddenly handed over a Storage Ring, "Holy Sage, this humble servant has no use for this thing for the time being. I hope Holy Sage doesn't mind."
Lu Ye took a look and found that it was actually a piece of White Moon Crystal!
Moreover, it seemed to be even bigger than the one the woman had sold him.
Seeing him look at him, Ma Shangsi explained, "This humble servant was planning to use it after breaking through to the Sunshine Realm, but right now, this humble servant is still far from that realm."
It could even be said that before meeting Lu Ye, he didn't have a chance to break through to the Sunshine Realm. Although he had a chance now, it wasn't something that could be done overnight.
Lu Ye was interested in the White Moon Crystal, but he didn't want to waste his money. The main reason was that he couldn't afford it. Now that he had one, he could take it out and show it to the Holy Sage.
"You're not bad!" Lu Ye patted him on the shoulder.
He had made a big profit by taking in this Blood Warrior.
It was just a drop of Treasure Blood, so he could condense another one. As for the loss of Saint Attribute, it was nothing compared to what he already had. Now, not only did he have a peak Yue Yao as his subordinate, but he also obtained a piece of White Moon Crystal worth ten to twenty million Spirit Stones.
In addition, the Domain Fragment wouldn't be cheap. It would cost at least a few hundred thousand Spirit Jades.
Lu Ye couldn't help but want to ask Ma Shangsi to lead the way and find a few more Blood Race Yue Yaos to subdue. Since this guy was a peak Yue Yao, he definitely knew other Blood Race Yue Yaos. Those were all valuable resources …
However, in comparison, returning to the Nine States to settle down the World King Flower was undoubtedly more important. There would be plenty of opportunities to subdue Blood Race Yue Yaos in the future.
"It's this humble servant's duty to share Holy Sage's burdens," Ma Shangsi said sincerely. Compared to these external things, Lu Ye gave him hope of breaking through to the Sunshine Realm. This was the real motivation for Ma Shangsi to sacrifice his life for him.
Moreover, after being accepted as a Blood Warrior by Lu Ye, he would never be able to get rid of it for the rest of his life. Naturally, he had to perform well.
After a short while, master and servant drove the Star Boat out of the market. Under the guidance of the star chart Lu Ye had given them, they headed toward the Cave Void Galaxy.
Ma Shangsi drove the Star Boat. Since Lu Ye had nothing to do, he prepared to condense a few more drops of Treasure Blood.
Treasure Blood had many uses. Naturally, the more, the better. However, with Lu Ye's Late Star Constellation Realm foundation, it was difficult for him to condense more after condensing three drops. Now that he had become a Yue Yao, the situation should improve.
However, before that, he thought of something.
He immediately placed the Mountain Saber across his lap and immersed his consciousness into it.
He had been stuck at Wang Xiu's level for a long time. It wasn't that he couldn't comprehend it completely. In fact, he had already made great progress. Compared to when he was killed by Wang Xiu as soon as he saw him, he could already vaguely see some results. Although he was still killed by a single strike, it was already different from before.
It was just that he had been running around recently, so he didn't have time to comprehend it.
Now that he had become a Yue Yao … he wondered if the situation would improve.
As he immersed his consciousness, he arrived at the familiar green hall. Wang Xiu was in front of him. As usual, he was in an attacking posture. His body was slightly bent as he stood not far away. His left hand gripped the scabbard, and his right hand gripped the hilt. A powerful aura flowed from his body.
Early Yue Yao!
The strength of the projections of the Fang Blade ancestors in the cyan hall was closely related to Lu Ye's cultivation base. Based on Lu Ye's cultivation base, the projections of these ancestors could show the same cultivation base as Lu Ye.
When he entered at the Late Star Constellation Realm, Wang Xiu was at the Late Star Constellation Realm.
Now that he entered at the Early Yue Yao Realm, Wang Xiu was at the Early Yue Yao Realm. It wouldn't decrease because of Lu Ye's cultivation.
This was because the energy that these projections were using came from Lu Ye's Mountain Pan Saber.
Compared to when he was at the Late Star Constellation Realm, Wang Xiu's aura was undoubtedly many times stronger. Lu Ye once again felt like he was being targeted by his natural enemy. His heart palpitated uneasily, as if he would die in the next moment.
In fact, he had already experienced this many times. (End of Chapter)
