Chapter 660 Sky-high Price
Ye Xiaoman comforted everyone calmly, "It's okay, I'm well prepared."
Xiao Chujing is the person who would come out to calm people's hearts at times like this.
"We have made sufficient preparations and will definitely ensure the safety of our junior sister."
His aura of being calm in the face of adversity gives people a sense of security that he can turn the tide even if the sky falls.
"Besides, I have prepared a backup plan."
Sikong Qing and Xiao Chujing looked at each other. They usually fought to the death, but they always reached a consensus when dealing with Ye Xiaoman.
He said lazily: "Well, don't worry, I have a backup plan."
"Very good, that's our agreement," said the eldest sister, "First seek stability, then seek a breakthrough."
The eldest sister still hopes that Ye Xiaoman can at least establish a solid foundation.
Otherwise, the lowest level of human foundation building, the highest achievement can only be to the Golden Core stage.
With Ye Xiaoman's current achievements, she could soar to great heights as long as her cultivation level matched, otherwise it would be a pity.
Ye Xiaoman is not as pessimistic as everyone else.
Yes, she is the pseudo five spiritual roots at the bottom of the contempt chain.
However, the fundamental reason why the pseudo-five spiritual roots in the past generations have been unable to break through is that they have been regarded as abandoned children by the world of immortal cultivation for a long time, have not received any resources to support them, and have been excluded from all peerless skills.
But she had already accumulated the skills and solved the long-standing problem of the mixed spiritual power of the pseudo-five spiritual roots. She also plundered a considerable amount of wealth and collected a large number of natural treasures that could increase the success rate of foundation building.
She is fundamentally different from all those who are falsely endowed with the five spiritual roots, and will definitely be able to achieve accomplishments that her predecessors could not.
Speaking of rare treasures, Ye Xiaoman remembered that the treasures she had collected were still missing one crucial thing.
The five elements of gold, wood, water, fire and earth, the top-grade black ore of gold attribute, the ancient Taotie beast of fire attribute, 108 kinds of high-level spiritual herbs of wood attribute, and the Xiyi treasure of earth attribute - she already has them.
What is still missing is the Hanhai Ginseng and Water Spirit Pearl that represents the water attribute.
The five elements must be complete, otherwise nothing will work and all previous efforts will be wasted.
Ye Xiaoman immediately told Si Kongqing and Xiao Chujing: "I remembered that I'm still missing a water-attributed foundation-building material."
Her fellow disciples had no idea what incredible treasures she had saved up, so they just treated them as ordinary water-attribute items and started emptying their pockets.
He contributed many things to her, such as rootless water, sea shells, sapphire ore, and polar snow.
Ye Xiaoman shook her head and didn't answer.
She collected the first four materials for herself according to the highest standards of the world of immortal cultivation, and she also wanted to collect the last material according to the most perfect standards.
Ye Xiaoman scratched her head, glanced longingly at Sikong Qing and Xiao Chujing, and said sheepishly, "I want the Hanhai Ginseng Water Spirit Pearl."
"What sea?"
"What kind of beads?"
The fellow students didn’t hear clearly the first time, and after asking again to hear clearly, their tongues seemed to be tied.
"You said you wanted the Vast Sea Ginseng Water Spirit Pearl? The most premium water-based material in the entire cultivation world?"
Ye Xiaoman nodded, and the senior sisters and brothers held their breath.
It is understandable that when children grow up and enter society, they will begin to want to own luxury goods after realizing that there are many good things in the world.
But this ginseng water spirit bead is not an ordinary thing, it is the most luxurious among the most luxurious.
The Shenhe Water Spirit Pearl is a treasure that can only be exported from the sea. It is born from the spiritual energy of heaven and earth in the sea. The conditions for its creation are very harsh. Only the only pure sea deep in the holy land of the sea can give birth to its origin.
After the origin is born, the goddess needs to go there in person to bring it out from the deep sea.
After that, it would take a hundred Nascent Soul cultivators with water-type spiritual roots to infuse super-pure water-type spiritual power for ten consecutive years to stimulate the essence of the Water Spirit Pearl and make it take shape from nothingness.
After it is formed, Haiyu will hire a team of craftsmen with more than two hundred years of experience per person, composed of famous weapon refiners from the six realms. They will carve the patterns purely by hand and infuse the spiritual array with ingenuity. The entire production process will be recorded on the photo stone.
——Whether this is true or not, at least that’s what the Huantian Chamber of Commerce’s promotional advertisement says.
Only three Canhe Water Spirit Pearls are sold in the entire sea area every year, and are sold exclusively by the Huantian Chamber of Commerce.
It is said to be very effective for monks.
Every once in a while, an elder from a major sect would come out and tell of a story, saying that after using the Water Spirit Pearl, their cultivation, which had stagnated for over a hundred years, had finally reached a new realm.
A few days later, another swordsman who had gone astray in his cultivation and was paralyzed in a wheelchair came out to publish a short essay, saying that after drinking a cup of tea brewed with a water spirit bead, he stood up from his wheelchair and walked briskly.
There was even a thousand-year-old cultivator nearing his death who reported good news, saying that since using the Water Spirit Pearl, he had gone from being bedridden to controlling ten furnace cauldrons at night...
There are few pearls and many buyers, so the Water Spirit Pearl, which is priced at 100 million high-quality spirit stones every year, is usually auctioned at a sky-high price of 200 to 300 million at the special auction of the Huantian Chamber of Commerce.
What does one to three hundred million high-grade spirit stones mean in the world of immortal cultivation?
It is the annual revenue of a medium or large sect.
The premise for this revenue must be that the overall operation of the sect is effective, there are powerful people in charge, there are talented new blood to fill the talent pool, the territory is expanding steadily, the influence radiates to countless cities around, and the many businesses under its jurisdiction, such as palaces, catching monsters and eliminating evil spirits, selling peripherals, and elixirs and magic tools, are carried out smoothly. This money can only be earned through hard work.
Even though Huantian Chamber of Commerce is such a giant conglomerate, its annual revenue is only over 200 billion high-quality spirit stones.
Therefore, under the publicity of Huantian Chamber of Commerce, the Canhe Water Spirit Pearl became the social currency of the top families, the dream of the middle-level cultivators, and an existence that the lower-level cultivators could only hope for and dare not even imagine.
Now that Ye Xiaoman suddenly said that she wanted the Water Spirit Pearl, how could the fellow disciples of Qingzheng Sect not go crazy?
The way everyone looked at Ye Xiaoman was as if she had been poisoned after eating the Pinjia meal and had not sought medical treatment in time, causing damage to her brain.
"Junior sister is still not sober after drinking fake wine."
"When the Sect Master achieved a breakthrough, he borrowed money from the Huantian Chamber of Commerce to buy a replacement for the Water Spirit Pearl, called the Shattered Ling Pearl. He paid off the debt for three hundred years, and he still hasn't paid it off."
"The sect leader is already the richest and most promising cultivator in the entire sect, and he can't afford it."
"Junior sister, hey, do you want to go back and lie down for a while to sober up?"
"Yes, even if the Huantian Chamber of Commerce grants you a loan because you're number one on the Heavenly Ranking, you'll have to work like a slave for them for a thousand years to pay off your debt. It's unnecessary, really unnecessary."
Ye Xiaoman thought to herself, "I know everything you are talking about. If she sells the contents of her storage bag together, she will probably be able to raise the money."
The main reason is that she doesn't want to spend her own money until the last step.
Aquaman is a very fragile creature, and needs regular gifts from fish to find the motivation to survive.
So she lowered her head in disappointment, as if she had realized, after being persuaded by her fellow students, that she was not worthy of the best things.
