Seeking Immortality In The World Of Cultivation
Chapter 1167 - Chapter 1167 Chapter 785 Void Stone_2

Chapter 1167: Chapter 785: Void Stone_2 Chapter 1167: Chapter 785: Void Stone_2 As for the subsequent True Monarch Miaotian, that was purely a coincidence.

However, regarding this matter, He Song also silently reminded himself.

In the future, he definitely must not act this way again.

This incident, had it not been for He Song’s great strength and his status as a Treasure Pavilion Guest Elder,

had it been someone else.

They might have harbored other thoughts about He Song’s previous actions.

By then, trouble would have been inevitable.

As various thoughts flashed through his mind, He Song sighed to himself.

Then, he finally spoke.

“So it turns out you two are fellow disciples, a brother and sister in Cultivation.”

“It seems that I was shortsighted, unable to notice it.”

“However, the matter you spoke of, I merely had some slight interest in it.”

“If I can obtain it, that would naturally be best.”

“But if the price is indeed too high, I am powerless.”

“This time, I am traveling here, and I will be moving on to other places afterward.”

“To prevent myself from encountering other opportunities along the way, I have no more spirit stones at hand.”

“This Void Stone.”

“If the price is too high, I can only reluctantly let it go.”

Having said that, He Song shook his head and sighed.

A look of regret painted his face.

True Lord Yun Tian, who knew True Monarch Miaotian standing before He Song at this moment,

and furthermore, they were fellow disciples, a brother and sister in Cultivation.

Moreover, before He Song arrived here, True Lord Yun Tian had already informed True Monarch Miaotian about He Song’s situation.

Thus, what these two planned was likely clear to anyone.

It was nothing more than attempting to get more spirit stones from True Monarch Miaotian.

As for other matters, it was unlikely for the two, being Pavilion Masters of the Treasure Pavilion, to engage in them.

Therefore, He Song was also not likely to be aware of this yet keep off his guard.

This was the reason why He Song spoke up as he did.

Since these two fellow disciples had already thought of siphoning off a layer of profit from him,

then he certainly could not simply watch himself jump into a pit.

Now as He Song declared that if the price was too high, he could only reluctantly let it go, it was merely a bargaining tactic.

What he meant was to inform the True Monarch Miaotian before him,

that he could not be easily exploited, and if True Monarch Miaotian set the price too high, he would simply turn away and leave.

In such a case,

True Monarch Miaotian naturally could not demand an exorbitant price recklessly anymore.

And True Monarch Miaotian, naturally understood He Song’s intention as soon his words ended.

However, regarding this, True Monarch Miaotian had already anticipated it.

Any Golden Elixir Master who could become one must definitely have their exceptional aspects.

Some have a huge backing behind them.

Some possess extraordinarily powerful Spiritual Root Aptitude.

Some have astonishing fortune, even capable of finding Golden Congealing Elixir Pills on the road.

And there are even those powerful cultivators who gather all these exceptional aspects together.

Otherwise, ordinary mortals or low-ranking cultivators almost have no chance of entering the Golden Core Realm.

And once a cultivator truly steps into the Golden Core Realm,

it also indirectly proves that this person is definitely not simple.

And He Song, who is a Treasure Pavilion Guest Elder displaying an external facade of Cultivation in the Golden Core Middle Stage,

in the eyes of True Monarch Miaotian, was naturally not someone who could be easily manipulated.

Therefore, He Song speaking up in such a way, advising her against asking for an outrageous price, seemed very normal to True Monarch Miaotian.

No one wishes to be the fool who overpays,

especially not someone like He Song, a powerful Gold Core Cultivator.

Given these circumstances, True Monarch Miaotian, upon hearing what He Song had said, showed no significant change on her face.

Instead, she simply added another cup of tea for He Song.

She then spoke softly,

“This is our first meeting today, Fellow Daoist.”

“I cannot speak of finding an instant connection.”

“However, I was already aware that you, Fellow Daoist, wanted that piece of Void Stone.”

“This is not a difficult matter.”

“As long as you, Fellow Daoist, are interested, I have the Void Stone at hand.”

“However.”

“You must have also heard some things about me from your brother Yun Tian.”

“I have many disciples, and my expenditure of spirit stones is enormous.”

“Therefore, I can only increase my sources and cut costs to ensure my Cultivation is not affected.”

“If Fellow Daoist wishes to obtain this Void Stone, I still require the rightful benefits,”

“However, since the news has spread over the past half month,”

“more than ten Fellow Daoists have been here.”

“Moreover, several Fellow Daoists have already made their offers.”

“As of now, the highest bidder, who has agreed to my benefit fee, has reached eighty thousand mid-grade spirit stones.”

“Unfortunately, all these people are outsiders.”

“Unlike Fellow Daoist, who is an inside member of our Treasure Pavilion.”

“Therefore, after much deliberation, I still feel somewhat uneasy.”

“Tens of thousands of spirit stones are good,”

“but if it were to be publicized, I fear the consequences would be unpredictable.”

At this point, True Monarch Miaotian paused slightly, her gaze then turning to He Song.

At this moment, He Song,

had an expression on his face that showed no change at all.

It was as if he hadn’t heard what she said.

Seeing this,

True Monarch Miaotian felt slightly reassured.

She quickly resumed speaking, pressing her demands.

“Fellow Daoist is an insider of our Treasure Pavilion.”

“You must have checked, in the Treasure Pavilion’s treasury, the price of that Void Stone.”

“In the treasury, the price of the Void Stone is two hundred thousand Contribution Value.”

“Although I do not know why you wouldn’t just exchange it directly in the treasury with Contribution Value,”

“but if it were traded in the outside world, the price of a Void Stone would mostly be around three hundred thousand mid-grade spirit stones.”

“This, Fellow Daoist must also be clear about.”

“The price for the Void Stone in my possession is also three hundred thousand mid-grade spirit stones.”

“As for the benefits,”

“since Fellow Daoist is one of our own,”

“it’s different from others.”

“So, five thousand mid-grade spirit stones will suffice.”

“In total, three hundred and fifty thousand mid-grade spirit stones, and Fellow Daoist can take the item.”

“I absolutely won’t go back on my word.”

“What do you think, Fellow Daoist?”

Three hundred and fifty thousand mid-grade spirit stones,

were the price mentioned by True Monarch Miaotian.

This price included three hundred thousand mid-grade spirit stones for the Void Stone and an additional benefit of fifty thousand mid-grade spirit stones for True Monarch Miaotian herself.

Now, according to what True Monarch Miaotian had said,

as long as He Song could produce three hundred and fifty thousand mid-grade spirit stones,

then, the Void Stone in her hands would be his.

However, this price,

in He Song’s view,

was not reasonable.

The price of a Void Stone was roughly around three hundred thousand mid-grade spirit stones.

This matter, actually, was not an issue.

As long as the Void Stone in True Monarch Miaotian’s hands was a standard one, or even if it did not need to be of superior quality, just meeting the standard line would be enough,

then He Song wouldn’t question the price of three hundred thousand mid-grade spirit stones.

However,

True Monarch Miaotian at this moment, even without showing the Void Stone to He Song for a glance, was mentioning three hundred thousand mid-grade spirit stones.

Moreover, she wanted an additional benefit of fifty thousand mid-grade spirit stones.

There was no way He Song would agree to this.

Previously, with True Monarch Ruo Yun, he paid only two hundred seventy-five thousand mid-grade spirit stones for a standard, and superior quality Void Stone.

Now, he was being asked for three hundred thousand mid-grade spirit stones without even having seen the specific appearance of the Void Stone,

plus an additional benefit of fifty thousand mid-grade spirit stones.

How could that be possible?

Did she really think he had never seen a Void Stone?

With such thoughts flashing through his mind, He Song slightly extended his hand.

“Three hundred thousand mid-grade spirit stones, to purchase a standard Void Stone, indeed isn’t too pricey,”

“However, could Fellow Daoist bring that Void Stone out for me to inspect it first?”

“That way, I can better understand its quality,”

“After that, we can discuss the price further.”

And facing He Song’s behavior at this moment,

True Monarch Miaotian’s face did not show any surprise,

instead, she looked at He Song with approval, and under his gaze, quickly took out a Void Stone from her storage bag.
