Southern Xinjiang, the border region.
A bronze gate appeared out of thin air, and a young man of exceptional temperament and appearance walked out of it.
He put the Anywhere Door into his body.
Gao Yan then flew on his sword toward Hu Xianxian's mountain stronghold.
Hu Xianxian has now passed the Six-Nine Heavenly Tribulation and advanced to the Nascent Soul stage.
Actually, among the demon race, they call the Nascent Soul stage the Demon Infant stage; they are essentially the same thing.
Upon learning that the human merchants had visited again.
A look of excitement appeared on Hu Xianxian's face. After breaking through to the peak of the ninth level of the Golden Core realm, she didn't have much sword intent energy left.
After breaking through to the Nascent Soul stage, the speed at which one absorbs and refines sword intent energy becomes even faster.
Within a few days, the remaining sword intent energy was completely exhausted.
As the saying goes, it is easy to go from frugality to extravagance, but difficult to go from extravagance to frugality. After getting used to the rapid increase in cultivation level, Hu Xianxian was very dissatisfied with the current cultivation speed.
Now that the human merchant has arrived, he has most likely brought with him that sword intent energy again.
"Greetings, Miss Xian'er!"
"Fellow Daoist Gao, there's no need for such formalities, please have a seat!" Hu Xianxian said gently and politely.
"Miss Xian'er, are you satisfied with the sword intent energy you traded earlier?" Gao Yan asked with a smile after taking his seat.
Although Hu Xianxian was satisfied, she still said, "It's acceptable."
"What a coincidence! I've brought some sword intent energy with me. Would Miss Xian'er be willing to trade with me?"
"Excellent!"
Hu Xianxian was delighted, but immediately asked, "How many drops did Fellow Daoist Gao bring this time?"
"Ten thousand drops!"
Gao Yandao said.
One drop is worth five million, ten drops are worth fifty million, a hundred drops are worth five hundred million, a thousand drops are worth five billion, and ten thousand drops are worth five hundred billion!
The current upgrade requirement is 20 billion in revenue.
According to the upgrade pattern, each upgrade only increases by 10 billion. Therefore, after selling 10,000 drops of sword intent energy, one can upgrade two levels in a row.
"Ten thousand drops?"
Hu Xianxian's expression was slightly shaken, and she was immediately tempted, but she also had some reservations, after all, 50 billion spirit stones was no small amount.
If she easily takes out 50 billion, will this human merchant be tempted by greed and try to steal it?
Seeing Hu Xianxian's hesitant expression, Gao Yan vaguely guessed her worries.
So he smiled and said, "Miss Xian'er, I'm a man of integrity and honesty in business. I wouldn't do something like this, where I'm tempted by money. Here are ten thousand drops of sword intent energy. Check them first, and if there are no problems, then give me the spirit stones!"
As he spoke, Gao Yan threw Hu Xianxian a hundred jade bottles filled with sword intent energy.
The opponent scanned the sword intent energy with their divine sense and found nothing wrong with it.
So he waved his hand to put it away and tossed a storage ring to Gao Yan.
After Gao Yan inspected it, he found it filled with spirit stones of different grades, worth exactly 50 billion spirit stones!
"Miss Xian'er, the spirit stones are correct. I'll take my leave now!"
Gao Yan put away his storage ring, stood up and spoke to Hu Xianxian, but the other woman's eyes revealed wariness.
"Alright, Fellow Daoist Gao, let's continue our trade next time!"
Gao Yan nodded, then turned and left!
After leaving the mountain stronghold, Gao Yan couldn't help but show a very bright smile.
We made a fortune this time.
Not only did he earn 50 billion in profit value, the system also returned 200 billion spirit stones, so his total number of spirit stones has exceeded 340 billion.
Although he is still not as good as Hu Xianxian, the amount of spirit stones he possesses is probably beyond the reach of most Dao Integration cultivators!
Gao Yan did not immediately return to Lingyue Peak.
Instead, they continued to venture deeper into southern Xinjiang.
The souls of the monsters we captured earlier have been completely depleted, so we need to replenish them this time.
While Gao Yan was capturing third- and fourth-tier monsters with eight assistants.
Hu Xianxian, however, quietly left the mountain stronghold with two guards.
Although Gao Yan hadn't turned against her during their previous transaction, her easy offering of 50 billion spirit stones might ignite the human merchant's greed.
What if they bring people to surround and kill her afterwards?
Therefore, the best solution is to leave.
Actually, she was overthinking it.
Gao Yan really had no such intention.
More than twenty days later, Gao Yan captured a large number of third and fourth-order demonic beasts, and even a fifth-order demonic beast.
It was a pleasant surprise.
The captured monsters were enough for Gao Yan to successfully forge his soul nine times, so he returned directly to Lingyue Peak through the Anywhere Door.
Even though the Xuanming Sect was humiliated by the Blood-Clad Tower some time ago, they have no intention of letting Gao Yan go.
The Xuanming Sect even issued a bounty on his head.
Anyone who discovers his whereabouts outside the Nine Saints Sect and reports it to the Xuanming Sect will receive a reward of 1 million spirit stones.
If you can capture him alive and hand him over to the Xuanming Sect, you will be rewarded with ten million.
If you bring his body to report, you'll receive a 5 million reward.
How did Gao Yan know that?
It was naturally learned through the soul seed dormant within the soul of a rogue cultivator.
However, he didn't take it seriously.
It just so happens that he needs to cultivate the Divine Demon Art during this period.
During the time it took to capture the monsters, the system completed two upgrades.
Because he was busy capturing monsters, Gao Yan didn't bother to deal with the rewards.
This time, they returned to Lingyue Peak.
He needs to take care of the reward issue.
I was promoted two levels in a row and was rewarded with 12 super lottery draws and 6,000 free attribute points.
I thought about it.
Gao Yan merged the 12 super draws into four deluxe draws.
Last time, I won a top-tier divine and demonic cultivation technique in the grand prize draw.
I wonder what good stuff I'll get this time.
