Seeking Immortality In The World Of Cultivation
Chapter 1126 - Chapter 1126 Chapter 765 Insider Trading

Chapter 1126: Chapter 765: Insider Trading Chapter 1126: Chapter 765: Insider Trading Without status or position, one could only await the occasional Foundation Establishment Elixir that would trickle out from the various sects every few years.

Of course,

if one’s cultivation reached the Foundation Establishment Realm, they naturally could purchase Foundation Establishment Elixirs from their own sects.

Or acquire them through other channels.

And for someone like He Song, who had reached the Golden Core Realm and held the position of a Guest Elder within the Treasure Pavilion,

it was naturally possible to obtain Foundation Establishment Elixirs at will from any of the main or branch pavilions of the Treasure Pavilion.

Although these Foundation Establishment Elixirs were controlled by the major sects,

to put it plainly, they were nothing more than Qi Refining stage spirit elixirs with slightly more precious refinement materials.

The difficulty of their refinement wasn’t actually all that great.

With the right materials and a cursory knowledge of alchemy, one could naturally refine them on their own.

And for the current He Song, the materials needed for the refinement of Foundation Establishment Elixirs,

were actually no longer of much concern to him.

In such circumstances, how could He Song, at the Later Stage of Golden Elixir, be troubled by a mere Foundation Establishment Elixir?

A Foundation Establishment Elixir,

at the time when He Song was at the Foundation Establishment Stage, was already not a big deal.

Back then, He Song could freely exchange for Foundation Establishment Elixirs from the treasure vaults of the Thick Earth Sect.

Even during the Qi Refining stage, the only constraint for He Song purchasing Foundation Establishment Elixirs was some spirit stones.

By saving up, he could always exchange for them.

Sitting in the living room,

He Song’s mind raced with thoughts.

Zhou Ruo deserved a reward indeed.

The reason He Song had obtained the Foundation Establishment Elixir from True Monarch Yue Hua was that he felt Zhou Ruo really deserved a reward.

If it weren’t for Zhou Ruo timely passing a message to He Song, he might still be in seclusive cultivation, oblivious to the existence of an advanced tunneling skill in the outside world.

Now,

since the advanced tunneling skill was in hand,

it was time to reward Zhou Ruo and let him continue to pass on messages for him in the future.

One Foundation Establishment Elixir,

in exchange for a continuous stream of various messages from this place,

was actually quite worthwhile for He Song.

After all, when he obtained the Foundation Establishment Elixir from the hands of True Monarch Yue Hua,

it didn’t cost too much.

An ordinary Foundation Establishment Elixir, if it appeared in an auction, would cost at least tens of thousands of low-grade spirit stones.

Even if it were exchanged within a sect, it would likely cost around twenty thousand low-grade spirit stones.

But He Song,

because he had an enjoyable discussion on the Dao with True Monarch Yue Hua and due to his identity as a Treasure Pavilion Guest Elder,

so True Monarch Yue Hua just made a gesture of goodwill and let He Song have several dozen mid-grade spirit stones, that is, a few thousand low-grade spirit stones,

and allowed him to take away the Foundation Establishment Elixir.

And now, for He Song,

these few dozen mid-grade spirit stones were nothing but a drop in the bucket.

Such spirit stones didn’t count for much to He Song.

Thus, it could even be said that,

He Song had merely spent a few thousand low-grade spirit stones to completely win over a person, securing their willing commitment to continuously relay all kinds of messages to him.

Moreover, this person would be deeply grateful to He Song,

because his appearance had given them a true chance to step into the Foundation Establishment Realm.

And He Song,

without having made much of an effort on his part, was able to gain this person’s willing, substantial contributions.

It was the best of both worlds.

Zhou Ruo was given the opportunity for Foundation Establishment,

while He Song had gained a cultivator who could provide him with a ceaseless stream of messages and who might even break through to the Foundation Establishment Realm later.

So, as these thoughts flashed through his mind,

He Song also opened his mouth and spoke.

“Previously, I told you that if you could help me find an advanced tunneling skill, I would bestow upon you many treasures and would not treat you unfairly,”

“This, I have not forgotten,”

“and now I call you here”

“mainly because of this matter,”

He said this much,

and He Song’s gaze turned to Zhou Ruo.

Only to see confusion written all over Zhou Ruo’s face,

she did not understand why He Song mentioned this matter at this moment, what his intention was.

You should know,

that in these several months, she had not received any information about advanced tunneling skills in the Treasure Pavilion.

And the information she had obtained in the Treasure Pavilion about a high-level tunneling skill emerging,

was retracted by the owner for some unknown reason before the auction even started.

It might seem uncommon for auction items to be taken back by the consignor before the auction begins,

but actually, it also makes sense.

If the consignor suddenly doesn’t feel like selling, taking the items back is normal.

However, once the advanced tunneling skill was retracted by the consignor, the information Zhou Ruo could find about high-level tunneling skills in the outside world

naturally became even scarcer.

And one could even say completely vanished.

Therefore,

after informing He Song several months ago that someone wanted to auction a high-level tunneling skill,

for the several months that followed,

Zhou Ruo had not found any information concerning high-level tunneling skills.

Yet under such circumstances,

He Song suddenly called her over today, months later from the previous incident, and brought up these matters.

He Song’s words naturally left Zhou Ruo puzzled,

with no clue as to why he would bring up these matters.

And He Song,

seeing the confusion on Zhou Ruo’s face as he was only halfway through speaking,

had anticipated Zhou Ruo’s confusion and didn’t wait for her to ask before he took out a small jade bottle from his storage bag.
