The Mighty Mage
Chapter 74: Solar Elemental Vein

Chapter 74: Chapter 74: Solar Elemental Vein

We can see that you are a girl and your cultivation level is...well not talk about that, we also know that your real name is not Su Jin.

Could you please tell us your real name at least?"

Gu Jin was a bit taken aback, but she had expected it so she wasn’t as shocked as she should have been...

And knowing that they accompanied her

Gu Jin’s tensed brows relaxed and she only said,

"Gu Jin. Orphan. Don’t know my origin."

There was silence for a long time.

Old Xiang, Old Wu, and Old Fan were stunned to hear that such a talented girl was an orphan.

Old Wu suddenly asked,

"So have you joined any family?"

"Nope!" Gu Jin said nonchalant.

"Why?" Old Fan asked.

Does she not have talent in Magic cultivation?

But that is impossible.

An excellent Mage may or may not be a good alchemist but a good alchemist is always an excellent Mage.

"Have you awakened your first element?" Old Wu asked.

He thought that maybe Gu Jin wanted to first awaken her element before joining any wealthy family.

"Yes." Gu Jin replied lazily. She only told about things that can be known with simple investigation.

"What is it?" Old Xiang asked curiously.

"Fire element."

"That is a rare good element." Old Wu praised and Old Fan and Old Xiang nodded their need.

"So why did you not join any wealthy family? From as far I know your conditions are enough to become a middle-circle disciple of any wealthy family.

And once you become more proficient in alchemy you could even apply to become an inner circle disciple." Old Fan asked.

"I don’t want to rely on anyone." Gu Jin said.

Old Wu said with a helpless smile,

"Child you may think that with 300 million you will able to support yourself, but let me tell you, you have to keep investing money on your cultivation with no return till you reach the Advance Rank."

Old Xiang continued,

"First for the primary level you will need Mystic Seed that will cost you 10 to 20 million and a Solar Elemental Vein that will cost you around 50 million..."

"Solar Elemental Vein?" Gu Jin asked.

She didn’t hear about such a word.

"Yes. Solar Elemental Vein helps a person to break through from the Primary Level to the Intermediate Level.

It is a must because without Solar Elemental Vein you can almost reach a pseudo breakthrough or half breakthrough but not any further. "

Gu Jin’s eyes flashed.

Solar Elemental Vien...

So that was the reason why she wasn’t able to break through?

Gu Jin asked,

"So where I should buy this Solar Elemental Vein from? For how much money."

"That depends on the element."

"What?" Gu Jin’s right eyelids twitched.

God!

No!

As she expected she heard Old Xiang say,

"If you want a fire element Solar Elemental Vein, then it will cost around 70 million."

Gu Jin gulped and asked,

"I...wish to awaken Dark Element in the future...so what will the Solar Elemental Vein price then?"

"Dark Element Solar Elemental Vein is rare, so the average price to buy it is around 150 or 200 million."

Gu Jin: "..." I don’t want to live.

Gu Jin took a deep breath and smiled with gritted teeth as she asked,

"I have heard about Mutated Elements, so are there Solar Element Vein for that too?"

"Why do you ask that? Have you awakened a Mutated Fire element?" Old Fan asked suspiciously.

Gu Jin nodded her head,

"I am planning to awaken a Mutated Element..."

"Don’t!" The three elders shouted at the same time.

Gu Jin was taken aback and asked,

"Why?"

Old Wu coughed and said,

"The mutated element’s awakening is very difficult and many die because of the unbearable pain."

"Not only that, the resources for mutated elements are very less..." Old Fan said.

"Just now you asked for a fire and dark element, don’t say that you want to awaken the Dark Fire element." Old Xiang said suspiciously.

Gu Jin looked at him innocently and asked,

"What do you mean?"

Old Xiang narrowed his eyes and warned,

"Girl, let me be very clear. Dark Fire element is very tempting and powerful indeed, but there is almost no awakening stone made for Dark Fire Element.

There are some shady business that claims to have awakening stones for Dark Fire Element but they are just fooling people.

Not to mention almost no resources for Dark Fire Element have been found for such a long time.

Do you that currently, only a few countries like China, United States, India, Philippines, Malaysia, Nigeria, Australia, United Kingdom, Canada, and Indonesia have Dark Fire Resources and that is too in few amount."

Gu Jin’s eyes brightened and she asked,

"China has it too? Where? What if I could awaken the Dark Fire Element if I come in contact with the Dark Fire Resources."

Gu Jin’s acting was on point. The three elders had seen many such scenes so they didn’t doubt thing and Old Wu said,

"Child, even if China has Dark Fire Resources, they are heavily guarded and strictly regulated by the government.

It’s not something that an ordinary person can access easily.

Besides, even if you manage to find the resources, awakening the Dark Fire Element is an extremely risky endeavor.

The process is fraught with danger and the chances of success are slim.

I would advise against pursuing the Dark Fire Element unless you are absolutely certain that it is worth the risk."

Gu Jin nodded but in her heart, she was thinking about how to infiltrate the government body to get her hands on Dark Fire Element resources.

Suddenly Old Xiang asked,

"Wait...so that formula wasn’t..."

"They were true, I stumbled upon them, I have a treasure-seeking body constitution if not a super heaven-defying luck." Gu Jin said.

But this time the three elders didn’t find her narcissist.

Without luck can you find such a precious formula?

Gu Jin instantly made a sad face when she saw Old Xiang opening his mouth to ask further questions,

"Maybe the god is compensating me for putting me in such a situation."

The three elders felt their hearts break and they instantly changed their tune,

Old Fan spoke up,

"Well, regardless of how you acquired the formula, it’s clear that you have a talent for alchemy."

Old Wu added,

"Indeed. Your resourcefulness and dedication are commendable."

Old Xiang chimed in,

"You may not have the backing of a wealthy family, but with your skills and determination, you may surpass even those who do."

Old Wu looked at Gu Jin kindly and said,

"Go and open the stall, we will support you. A person from Alchemy Tower will visit you tomorrow and you just need to put the mark on your Alchemy Tower on your stall."

Suddenly Old Fan interrupted,

"I have a shop you can rent it. Since you are not bad I will rent the place to you for 20,000 yuan per month. Take the first month as the trial and pay only for 11 months."

20,000 yuan a month? If you want to rent a shop in Fujio City the minimum rent is 50,000 yuan per month

Old Xiang nodded and said,

"I have a herb garden of my own if you need any rare herbs or herbs in bulk quantity, I will give you a 50% discount."

Old Wu looked at Gu Jin and said,

"If you need a backer, or any other force is trying to bully you, you can come to me. I will take care of them."

Gu Jin paused and looked at the kind elder in front of her.

Their giving their alchemy tower mark to her was a part of a business deal but whatever they were offering now was not a business deal but their kindness...

Gu Jin stood up and said,

"Wait a minute."

Then she left the room without looking back.

"What happened?" Old Fan asked.

"I don’t know." Old Xiang shook his head.

"Maybe she was feeling sad." Old Wu guessed.

Even though Gu Jin’s remained calm the entire time he was able to see a hint of sadness in her eyes.

Just as the elders were discussing among themselves, they heard the sound of footsteps.

Gu Jin entered the room with 4 papers and passed each elder a paper.

"What is this?" Old Wu asked. Even he who was wise among all the three elders was surprised by Gu Jin’s action.

"Shares. I am giving you 10% shares of my shop. The dividend you will get at the end of this year may not lot, but I assure you that once my alchemy shop is very well known, you will be able to earn billions just by sitting."

Gu Jin was cold-hearted but not ungrateful.

The elders were doing so much for her, how could she not reciprocate their kindness?
