"So it is Manager Sun, my respects, Zhang Liang at your service."

Zhou Chun returned the greeting with a clasped-hand salute, taking the opportunity to introduce himself by name.

He was then invited by Sun Yuanjing to take a seat in the elegant private room on the third floor, where they settled in as host and guest.

Soon after, two maidservants came forward with trays to offer spiritual tea to the two of them.

"This Fragrant Snow Spirit Tea is one of the four types of spiritual tea used by our pavilion to entertain distinguished guests like Taoist Friend Zhang. Its flavor is sweet, cool, and refreshing, best brought out by brewing it with Snowspring Water. Taoist Friend Zhang, why not try it and savor its taste?"

Sun Yuanjing took a sip from his cup first, then turned to Zhou Chun with a slight smile, inviting him to enjoy the tea together.

However, Zhou Chun, having been tricked once in Tianyuan Immortal City, no longer trusted the credibility of these so-called big shops.

At this moment, he calmly replied, "Manager Sun, I’m grateful for your kind intentions. However, it’s not my habit to drink tea outside; let’s proceed to discuss business first!"

Hearing this, Sun Yuanjing showed no displeasure, merely giving a slight nod to the maidservants to take the tea away and withdraw.

Then he turned to Zhou Chun and said, "Taoist Friend Zhang seems quite new here, is this your first visit to our pavilion?"

"Indeed, it is my first visit since my successful Core Formation," Zhou Chun replied calmly, not hiding the fact that he had recently formed his Golden Core.

There was no need to conceal such a fact because, from now on, the identity of Zhang Liang would be his frequently used persona within the Great Zhou Kingdom.

As for his original identity, of course he would avoid revealing it as much as possible.

After all, even if he was not afraid of the enemies he might provoke outside, he still had to worry that if his true identity was known, they would take revenge on the Zhou Family in Jingguo Country.

Basically, cultivators like him from families at the Golden Core Stage generally wouldn’t reveal their true origins when traveling abroad.

Having heard his reply, Sun Yuanjing immediately laughed and said, "So Taoist Friend Zhang is a newly advanced Golden Core Stage cultivator. In that case, I must first extend my congratulations to you."

After speaking, he looked at Zhou Chun and asked, "But I’m curious, what kind of transaction does Taoist Friend Zhang wish to make today at the Heavenly Treasure Pavilion?"

Zhou Chun, upon hearing this, promptly replied with composure, "Having recently achieved Core Formation, naturally, I need to toil for my Lifebound Dharma Treasure and cultivation of Divine Skills. Therefore, I wish to exchange with your shop to purchase some Dharma Treasure Spirit Materials and high-quality Metal Element Essence Qi!"

So saying, he listed the related Spirit Materials needed for refining his Lifebound Dharma Treasure.

However, after listening to his request, Sun Yuanjing quickly shook his head and said, "The Dharma Treasure Spirit Materials that Taoist Friend Zhang mentioned are not common items. Even our pavilion currently only has Heavenly Mystery Goldsand and Goldstar Stone in stock, and both are only available for exchange with Spiritual Objects of equivalent value."

"As for high-quality Metal Element Essence Qi, our pavilion does have some in stock, though I’m not sure if it meets Taoist Friend Zhang’s requirements."

Upon hearing this response, Zhou Chun was not disappointed, but rather showed a pleased expression.

The materials needed to refine the Myriad Transformations Golden Cauldron were many, and Zhou Chun had not anticipated being able to collect them all at once at the Heavenly Treasure Pavilion; hence, having two types was already cause for joy.

Immediately, he readily agreed, "No problem, I happen to have prepared some Dharma Treasure Spirit Materials and Spiritual Medicine for exchange. As for the Metal Element Essence Qi, please have Taoist Friend Sun bring some out for me to examine."

He then presented some items he had prepared for exchange, allowing Sun Yuanjing to select from them.

Such barter was naturally not about who gained or lost, but rather about who had the need.

The items Zhou Chun brought out were, in terms of value, often even higher than the two types of Spirit Materials he requested, so Sun Yuanjing quickly chose two of the most valuable items from them.

After making his selection, he turned to Zhou Chun with a slight smile and said, "Please wait a moment, Taoist Friend Zhang. I will arrange for someone to fetch the Spiritual Objects for you."

He then discreetly sent a message with a slight movement of his lips.

About half an hour later, the doors to the private room opened, and a beautiful woman dressed in a green garment entered.

This beautiful woman, with a cultivation level of Middle Stage Purple Mansion, only glanced briefly at Zhou Chun before giving a respectful bow to Sun Yuanjing and said, "Subordinate greets Manager Sun. I have brought the items you ordered me to retrieve."

With that, she gave a pat to her Storage Pouch and handed over two Jade Boxes and several bottles to Sun Yuanjing.

"That’s enough, you may leave now."

Sun Yuanjing took the items, waved his hand to dismiss the woman in the green garment, and then passed the items to Zhou Chun, saying, "Here are the things, Taoist Friend Zhang, please verify them for yourself!"

Zhou Chun, upon seeing this, immediately began to inspect the Heavenly Mystery Goldsand and Goldstar Stone contained in the two Jade Boxes.

After confirming that the quality and quantity of the two types of Spirit Materials met his needs, he then picked up the bottles with Metal Element Essence Qi and examined each one.

These bottles only contained samples of Metal Element Essence Qi, so if Zhou Chun was satisfied with a particular type, he could then specify the quantity for purchase.

However, after inspecting the various types of Metal Element Essence Qi, he frowned slightly and turned to Sun Yuanjing, saying, "Although the quality of these Metal Element Essence Qi is decent, they do not meet the expectations I had in mind. Does your pavilion possess any Metal Element Essence Qi of higher quality?"

"None of these are suitable?"

Sun Yuanjing was slightly taken aback, then gave him an odd look and pondered for a moment before responding, "If you are seeking Metal Element Essence Qi of even higher quality, although we don’t currently have any in stock, our pavilion can indeed procure it for you. However, simply purchasing it with Spirit Coins will not suffice!"

Zhou Chun’s eyes brightened immediately as he replied, "Manager Sun, please be assured, as long as it meets my requirements, I am naturally willing to pay with other precious Spiritual Objects!"

Upon hearing this, Sun Yuanjing had no further doubts and immediately nodded, "Very well, since Taoist Friend Zhang has said so, please allow me half a month’s time. Return after half a month to inspect the goods!"

"I shall return in half a month," Zhou Chun said, rising and taking his leave with the two newly acquired Spirit Materials.
