Seven Nascent Soul Spirit Materials!

The very thought of this made Zhou Chun’s breath coarse as well.

Not counting the Five Elements Spirit Fruit, nor the Golden Toxin Dragon Fruit, and not even the Holy Spirit Blood Pill.

The Zhou Family currently still possesses three Nascent Soul Spirit Materials.

They are the Yin Yang Integration Spirit Pill, the Extreme Yang Fire Spirit Liquid, and the Extreme Cold Ice Marrow Liquid.

If Zhou Chun could exchange for another seven Nascent Soul Spirit Materials, the Zhou Family would then have ten such materials!

This could almost allow all the Purple Mansion Phase Cultivators of the Zhou Family to attempt a breakthrough to the Golden Core Stage!

However, Zhou Chun only entertained that beautiful thought for a moment before proactively snuffing it out.

He could not do that!

A man without guilt becomes guilty when in possession of a jade.

If he truly dared to exchange that many Nascent Soul Spirit Materials, even if the Heavenly Spirit Alliance exchanged them for him, it would be very difficult to safeguard these items, and the Zhou Family could even attract tremendous troubles because of it.

After all, the Zhou Family currently only had Lin Hongyu, a Golden Core Stage Cultivator, who alone was insufficient to deter those attracted by the seven Nascent Soul Spirit Materials.

Not to mention seven Nascent Soul Spirit Materials, even exceeding three could pose a significant threat to the Zhou Family.

Therefore, Zhou Chun quickly calmed down and extinguished that thought.

"I can exchange for two Nascent Soul Spirit Materials myself, and have the Supreme Elder exchange for one, although this may still be quite eye-catching, as long as we announce that the Zhou Family is now under the protection of the Moon Wheel Sect, we should be able to manage."

Thinking this, Zhou Chun’s gaze continued downward, checking out other treasures in the second category.

Besides Nascent Soul Spirit Materials, the list included Dharma Treasures, Dharma Treasure Spirit Materials, and Fourth Grade Talismans, all with different prices.

Unfortunately, strategic treasures such as Fourth Order Puppets were not included!

For Zhou Chun, while Dharma Treasures could certainly be very effective after Core Formation, their high exchange prices were beyond what he could afford, and could be completely disregarded.

As for Dharma Treasure Spirit Materials, he did find several kinds that could be used in refining his Myriad Transformations Golden Cauldron.

However, these materials, unlike the Earth Mother Profound Gold, were not so rare and hard to find. He could slowly trade other Dharma Treasure Spirit Materials he had after successfully forming his Nascent Soul, so there was no need to waste precious Battle Merits and Demonslaying Command Tokens on them.

It was the same rationale with the Fourth Grade Talismans.

Hence, Zhou Chun quickly turned his attention to the Spirit Materials that assist in opening the Purple Mansion.

Any Spirit Materials that assist in a breakthrough to a higher realm attribute are strategic resources.

While there were quite a few types of Spirit Materials that could be exchanged with Battle Merits this time to help in opening the Purple Mansion, it did not mean you could freely exchange as long as you had enough Battle Merits.

Otherwise, individuals with outstanding Battle Merits like Zhou Chun, as well as other eligible exchangers, would all rush for these materials, which would be difficult to supply even if all nations and sects operated at full capacity to refine them.

Therefore, it was specially regulated that cultivators above the Purple Mansion Phase could not exchange for more than three of such materials, and moreover, the priority of Purple Mansion Phase Cultivators to exchange for these materials was not as high as that of Foundation Establishment cultivators!

Zhou Chun, seeing the familiar Spirit Pill, the Mysterious Heart Purple Return Pill, did not hesitate to decide to spend 300,000 Battle Merits and 300,000 Spirit Coins to exchange for three of these pills.

He couldn’t help but want to criticize the unseemly appetite of the Heavenly Spirit Alliance.

Back then, when the sects of Jingguo Country were rewarding those who had made significant contributions in the battle against the Dragon Transformation Sect, the Mysterious Heart Purple Return Pill could be exchanged with just 100,000 Battle Merits, and no Spirit Coins were needed.

But this time, not only did the Heavenly Spirit Alliance require the expenditure of Battle Merits, but also the payment of Spirit Coins for the exchange.

Even though, when killing the enemy, every enemy’s head had Spirit Coin rewards, the greed was still unseemly!

Including the prices for Nascent Soul Spirit Materials, which were obviously much higher than market value, the same was true!

Zhou Chun guessed that this was the Alliance’s upper echelons knowing that the pressure of inflation to come would be great, so they took advantage of this opportunity to give rewards in order to first suck up some money from those who had made a fortune off the war.

And even though he saw through this, he could only comply.

After all, even in the Great Zhou Kingdom, the Purple Mansion Spirit Materials like the Mysterious Heart Purple Return Pill with excellent effects were not something you could buy at will.

However, by doing so, Zhou Chun’s purse, which had been hard to fatten, would suddenly deflate quite a bit.

Zhou Chun continued to look further down, and when he saw the Foundation Establishment Pill, he couldn’t help but frown.

It’s unknown whether it was an anticipation that this time the Foundation Establishment Pill might be in great demand or a desire to use it to win the hearts of the low-level Loose Cultivators and small Cultivator Families.

Generally, the Foundation Establishment Pill was not open for exchange to Foundation Establishment cultivators and Purple Mansion Phase Cultivators, and they could only exchange a guaranteed minimum of one pill if they wanted to.

Additionally, Cultivator Families that had lost Foundation Establishment cultivators could use the family’s name to get one extra exchange slot.

The exchange price for a Foundation Establishment Pill was 12,000 Battle Merits plus 10,000 Spirit Coins, which was not as outrageous as the price for opening Purple Mansion Spirit Materials or Nascent Soul Spirit Materials.

"Thankfully, I asked Taoist Friend Luo to take Elder Lin to the Great Zhou Kingdom to pre-order the purchase of Foundation Establishment Pills. Otherwise, we would probably be staring in dismay at this moment!"

Zhou Chun couldn’t help shaking his head, silently grateful for his foresight.

Otherwise, with the Zhou Family’s current situation, at most, they would only be able to exchange for seven or eight Foundation Establishment Pills.

If he does the math, if he uses the Demonslaying Command Tokens for exchanging Nascent Soul Spirit Materials, Zhou Chun would still have 300,000 Battle Merits at his disposal!

Thus, he cast his gaze towards the elixirs that help in breaking through the minor realm barriers.
