Chapter 664 - The White Melted Planet Metal



Chapter 664: The White Melted Planet Metal

After everyone was seated, Ji Hongsen clapped his hands and said, “Thank you, everyone, for giving me face. Some friends that I did not invite also came. Everyone must have guessed why I asked you over. That’s right. It’s because of a connate treasure. However, I won’t talk about this connate treasure first. I’m worried everyone will be too excited after hearing its name and it will affect our following interactions.”

Upon hearing Ji Hongsen’s words, everyone was spirited. They knew clearly how much good stuff Ji Hongsen had. Back when Guang Yuan Palace’s Palatial Lord Su Guang had yet to perish, he had been publicly recognized as the wealthiest cultivator in this void. Ji Hongsen had always had the best relationship with Su Guang and stood by his side. The two of them had often gone to the void to strike rich, so nobody would believe he was poor. If Ji Hongsen had mentioned that this was good stuff, it would definitely be something extremely good.

“We’ll do this according to age. The youngest shall do it first. How’s that?” Ji Hongsen looked at Di Jiu with a smile.

Di Jiu knew very well that Ji Hongsen meant according to cultivation and not age. Whoever had the lowest cultivation would go first.

In a general trade meeting, the first person should have the absolute advantage. Di Jiu knew very well that the first person at a trade meeting here would definitely not have an advantage. He had heard from Tang Xitan that when two people were trading, as long as someone else took a fancy to the thing taken out, he could also join by force.

Despite knowing this, Di Jiu had to get the Melted Planet Metal, which was a treasure he urgently needed.

He took out a basin-sized black material. Before he said anything, someone exclaimed in surprise, “The Nirvana Black Metal Stone...”

The Nirvana Black Metal Stone was definitely a top-notch priceless treasure. If it was used to refine a praying mat and one sat on it to cultivate, not only could they meditate, but they could also expand their Spiritual Sea. If it could be incorporated into one’s Dharma treasure, that Dharma treasure would be even more suitable for warming and nourishing oneself and would also be even more perfected when activating the Dao rune divine power.

However, the Nirvana Black Metal Stone was extremely rare so even a fist-sized piece was hard to obtain, not to mention the basin-sized piece that Di Jiu had taken out.

Many people were envious and stared at the big piece of Nirvana Black Metal Stone in front of Di Jiu. They decided that they definitely had to obtain this.

Tang Xitan clenched her fists as well. As a top-notch Blacksmith Grandmaster, this was truly good stuff in her opinion. If she had known Di Jiu had the Nirvana Black Metal Stone, she would definitely have not allowed him to take it out and would instead have traded with him in private.

Nobody spoke, but they all stared at Di Jiu and the Nirvana Black Metal Stone before him. At the moment, it was time for Di Jiu’s offer. Everyone wanted to know whether they had something he needed.

What amazed everyone was that Di Jiu did not make an offer. Instead, he took out two more items.

“More than one nomological fragment...” This time, a few cultivators gasped simultaneously. If he could also take out nomological fragments, how many treasures did a mere Primordial Dao Sacred Emperor have on him?

After Di Jiu took out the Nirvana Black Metal Stone, he indeed took out two pieces of nomological fragments. One of them was metal-element, while the other was earth-element.

He knew very well that the Nirvana Black Metal Stone could not be traded for the Melted Planet Metal even if he added two pieces of nomological fragments. Since this was a trade, he could not take out all his trump cards at once. He would hear the offers of the others after taking it out.

“Daoist Di, may I ask what you need?” a mid-stage Primordial Chaos Sacred Emperor who could no longer hold it in asked with cupped fists.

Di Jiu replied with cupped fists, “Fellow Daoists, I have a piece of Nirvana Black Metal Stone here and two additional pieces of nomological fragments. I want to trade them for some Melted Planet Metal and a piece of Falling Silver Ice Sulfur.”

Upon hearing that, many of them were disappointed. They did not have such a thing but they knew that Ji Hongsen had a piece of Melted Planet Metal. It looked like they had no way of fighting over these items. After all, Ji Hongsen was the owner here. Wouldn’t anyone who fought over Di Jiu and his trade be causing trouble?

Once Ji Hongsen heard that, he knew what Di Jiu wanted.

To be frank, he needed the Nirvana Black Metal Stone urgently, much more than the Melted Planet Metal. However, he was also aware deep down that even though the item that Di Jiu had taken out was of high value, it could not be traded for the Melted Planet Metal.

“I have a piece of Melted Planet Metal. However, your item can’t be traded for it, let alone for the Falling Silver Ice Sulfur,” Ji Hongsen said faintly. He wanted the item that Di Jiu had taken out because he had an earth-element Spirit Root.

He did not think that Di Jiu had seen the Spirit Root element he cultivated before taking out the earth-element nomological fragment. Di Ji had probably unintentionally taken out what happened to fit his exact needs.

Di Jiu laughed softly. “As the saying goes, something you urgently need can’t be bought with a thousand pieces of gold. If you lost your cultivation, it would be better to have a cup of water than 1,000 pieces of gold in the desert. We must work harder to cultivate the Dao. If you don’t work hard, you might think that it’s not worth your hard work, but other people might catch up.”

Ji Hongsen silently sighed. Although he knew that and wanted to make him trade at a lower price, he had to admit that Di Jiu was right.

If someone traded for the nomological fragments and the Nirvana Black Metal Stone today instead of him, they might surpass him.

Ji Hongsen hesitated for a while. “You should add some more things. These are insufficient for a trade.”

Exactly at that moment, an abrupt voice transmission echoed beside Di Jiu’s ears. “Friend, I have some Melted Planet Metal and Falling Silver Ice Sulfur. I can trade with you in private if you don’t want to do it here. I only want one nomological fragment and the Nirvana Black Metal Stone. I’ll even give you both things without anything else from you.”

No matter how secretive this voice transmission was, Di Jiu immediately knew who it was. It was the narrow-eyed Gou Zibi.

Di Jiu instantly realized that only he was aware of Gou Zibi’s voice transmission. The other Primordial Chaos Sacred Emperors and Ji Hongsen had not realized that Gou Zibi had sent a voice transmission to him.

His narrow eyes made him seem like he was half-alive and half-dead. He appeared to be at the early-stage Primordial Chaos, but Di Jiu was sure that he was a sheep in disguise. He was either not an ordinary early-stage Primordial Chaos expert or a sinister cultivator who concealed his cultivation.

Di Jiu did not care about Gou Zibi at all. While he set up nomological array flags, he took out a small jade bottle and said, “This is half a bottle of Pure Yin Chaos Qi. However, if you want this, you can’t have the Nirvana Black Metal Stone.”

“It’s a deal. I’ll take the Pure Yin Chaos Qi instead of the Nirvana Black Metal Stone.” Ji Hongsen did not seem to wait for Di Jiu to continue. He took out a jade box and threw it to him without hesitation.

There was a fist-sized white stone in the jade box. Di Jiu was ecstatic at the sight of it. This was Melted Planet Metal of the highest level. If Ji Hongsen knew that the white Melted Planet Metal was of the highest level, he definitely would not have said that he did not want the Nirvana Black Metal Stone anymore.

Di Jiu swept up the jade bottle and threw it along with the two nomological fragments to Ji Hongsen without hesitation. Even though Ji Hongsen had not mentioned the Falling Silver Ice Sulfur, Di Jiu did not bring it up.

He could even sense a few Spiritual Forces with intense auras landing on him. The items that he had taken out just now were simply too heaven-defying. Each of the three items was a heaven-defying treasure.

“I have a piece of Falling Silver Ice Sulfur that I want to trade for your Nirvana Black Metal Stone.” After Di Jiu and Ji Hongsen were done trading, a mid-stage Primordial Chaos expert spoke. Meanwhile, he took out a piece of Falling Silver Ice Sulfur.

Without hesitation, Di Jiu cut the basin-sized Nirvana Black Metal Stone into half before saying, “Your Falling Silver Ice Sulfur is only worth half of this.”

Upon seeing this, a few Primordial Chaos experts who had been thinking of ways to meet with Di Jiu muttered silently. Even they could not have cut Nirvana Black Metal Stone into half like that. Could Di Jiu also be a Primordial Chaos expert who had concealed his cultivation?

Without hesitation, that mid-stage Primordial Chaos expert threw the Falling Silver Ice Sulfur in his hands to Di Jiu. “It’s a deal.”

Unless he was a fool, he would not trade. After all, he had earned it this time.

“Not bad, friend. You even have the Dao fire and you advanced it to a low-grade divine flame. Very impressive. It’s no wonder you don’t want my Melted Planet Metal and Falling Silver Ice Sulfur.” Gou Zibi chuckled and once again sent a voice transmission to Di Jiu.

Gou Zibi had not expected that everyone would unexpectedly hear his voice transmission. Thus, his face instantly changed. He then understood that Di Jiu had set up a restriction in a short time that caused all the voice transmissions sent to him to turn into real voices for everyone to hear.

Deep down, Di Jiu sneered. He hated sinister people like Gou Zibi the most. Things would have been slightly better if Gou Zibi had really had the Melted Planet Metal and Falling Silver Ice Sulfur. However, Di Jiu was certain that he had neither. This person had sent a voice transmission to him because he’d wanted to rob him. Even though he was not afraid of Gou Zibi, he was not in the mood to waste his time on such a person.
