In the quiet room on the second floor of Gathering World, Yi Tian waited for a moment before a female cultivator in a brocade robe knocked on the door and entered.
Yi Tian sized her up. Her cultivation was around the intermediate stage of the Deity Transformation Stage. She should be able to make a deal with an early stage cultivator like him. From this, it could be seen that the owner of Gathering World was very good at doing business.
After the female cultivator came forward, she slowly bowed and sat down on the empty seat opposite him. Then she said, "I am Qiu Moying, the third shopkeeper of Gathering World. Nice to meet you." This woman's voice was very pleasant, and it seemed to contain a bit of a soul-sucking sound. It was needless to say that this was the result of cultivating a charm technique.
"Rogue cultivator Yi Tian greets Fellow Daoist Qiu." Yi Tian said lightly. After sizing up the other party, he found it funny in his heart. The boss behind this' Gathering the Heavens' had probably specially found some cultivators who cultivated charm techniques to be the shopkeepers. It seemed like this business was done exceptionally smoothly.
Unfortunately, it had no effect on a cultivator like him. He then took out a jade slip that he had already prepared and handed it over. "Here are some of the treasures I need. Shopkeeper Qiu, please take a look first. If you have enough goods, I hope you can buy them all in one go."
Shopkeeper Qiu took the jade slip and checked it with her divine sense. There were indeed a lot of treasures written in the jade slip. What was even more shocking was the number of treasures marked on Qiu Moying's back.
Yi Tian seemed to have known that she would react like this. He just waited quietly on the side and didn't say anything.
After a while, Shopkeeper Qiu calmed down and closed the jade slip in her hand. Then she asked, "Brother Yi, are you a tool refiner? How good is your memory?"
"I was originally an Earth Grade Weapon Refiner, and after traveling to Asura Imperial City, I wanted to purchase some special precious materials from this place for future use," Yi Tian said. He reckoned that with his own cultivation level, it was about the same as an Earth Grade Weapon Refiner. If he said that it was an even higher grade weapon refiner, it would probably draw suspicion.
Many of his jade slips contained refining materials. These were the results of his inquiry in the historical records of Di Luo City.
Of course, the names of many Heaven Grade precious materials were also added to it, but they were only listed in the jade slip as being within the scope of selection.
Shaoqing Shopkeeper Qiu lowered his head and pondered for a moment before replying, "To tell you the truth, Brother Yi, I have most of the list of precious materials recorded in your jade slip."
"That's great. Price isn't a problem. Shopkeeper Qiu, please don't stand on ceremony," Yi Tian said with a smile.
"Ninety percent of the Earth Grade treasures in this list are Earth Grade treasures. I can directly set a price for them with Brother Yi," Qiu Moying said, then paused.
Yi Tian knew that there was a hidden meaning in her words, but he wasn't in a hurry. He then asked in a deep voice, "So you're saying that Heaven Grade treasures are traded using another method, right?"
"That is indeed the case," Qiu Moying said with a smile, "Our company's Heaven-rank treasures are all traded using barter. However, there are still some items on Fellow Daoist Yi's list that are banned from the market. Please forgive us."
"Oh, I don't know if those things are banned?" Yi Tian asked.
"This Spirit Wine 'Blood Jade Wine' is originally a Spirit Wine used by the imperial family. There is no chance for it to flow out of the market. If Fellow Daoist Yi wants to taste this wine, you'll have to befriend the nobles of the Asura Dynasty. However, as long as Fellow Daoist shows sufficient strength, I'm sure many of the major clans in the dynasty will be willing to treat you as an honored guest, "Shopkeeper Qiu explained.
This' Blood Jade Wine 'was originally added by him at zero time. His purpose was to test the circulation of this wine in the market. However, he didn't add it to taste it. He just wanted to see how much Luo Yao had spent to compete with him.
Now that he understood the situation, he had a plan in mind. Soon after, he replied with a smile, "I know what I'm doing. Thank you for your advice, Shopkeeper Qiu. May I know what other materials in this list can't be traded? As for those treasures that can be traded, how are they priced? "
Qiu Moying's face revealed a disappointed expression. She probably felt a little frustrated because she didn't arouse his curiosity. After a while, she listed a few materials that were banned on the jade slip. They were Ghost Faced Flower Bud, Demonic Stem Vine, and Blood Caltrop Root.
After hearing this, Yi Tian naturally understood. To put it bluntly, he had deliberately written down these things and listed them in the Heaven Grade materials at the end of the jade slip. Without a doubt, these treasures were all products of the 'Asura Blood Vine'. It seemed that the Asura Dynasty's imperial family had explicitly banned the trade of this kind of spirit plant.
Apart from the three treasures that couldn't be traded, Qiu Moying continued to list a few other treasures, including Wind Luan eggs and young Wind Luan birds. Qiu Moying's explanation was that Wind Luan birds were spirit beasts used to pull imperial carriages. Ordinary people couldn't ride them, nor could they raise them. This was the embodiment of imperial power and couldn't be trampled on.
In truth, Qiu Moying had already tested these things. When he mentioned them in the jade slip, he was more or less probing. However, what he didn't expect was that the 3,000-year-old Iron Tree Spirit was also listed. It could be considered a primary material among Heaven Grade treasures. However, it couldn't be considered a specialty of this realm. He had seen many of them in the Spirit Realm, but they hadn't reached the 3,000-year-old level.
After thinking for a moment, Qiu Moying pointed and said, "Could it be that the Iron Tree Spirit is a material that is in high demand? If that's the case, then I really overestimated your company."
Shopkeeper Qiu glanced at the jade slip and revealed an awkward expression. "Actually, it wasn't considered that before. It was just that Prince Wei ordered a large amount of these treasures to be collected. That's why it was added to the list of prohibited items. "
"Prince Wei ordered it," Yi Tian thought to himself. "It seems that this matter is quite strange. I didn't know that the 3,000-year-old Iron Tree Spirit could only be used as a tool refinement material. It seems like Prince Wei must be secretly preparing for the Fire Essence Mystic Realm trial. A Steel Tree Spirit that is over three thousand years old can effectively resist Innate Astral Fire. I'm afraid he's starting to suppress his two opponents by issuing such a ban. "
Yi Tian didn't beat around the bush and directly asked for the price. He took out the Earth Grade spirit tool he had prepared and exchanged it with Shopkeeper Qiu. After inspecting the spirit tool, Shopkeeper Qiu was full of praise. The two sides quickly completed the transaction.
Four hours later, the transaction was completed. Yi Tian finally cleared out a batch of useless spirit tools and exchanged them for a large amount of treasures. After bidding farewell to Qiu Moying, he slowly walked out of the room and walked toward the hall.
Suddenly, his eyes flashed and he saw seven or eight people walking in from the door. There seemed to be two familiar figures among them. With a thought, he turned around and pretended to be checking with his back facing the door to avoid their line of sight.
