Chapter 717: Chapter 429 Ten-thousand-year Warm Jade_2
âWen Bo, you should learn from Bai Brotherâs steady style,â
Chen Mobai looked appreciatively at Bai Dingxianâs retreating figure. Such a person could survive well in the Eastern Wilderness, no wonder the Bai family under his leadership was gradually gaining the reputation of being the first family of Jian Country.
White Moon Market was located at the far north of Jian Country, bordering Snow Country, and the Bai familyâs business extended there. Therefore, when Lan Lingping visited, Bai Dingxian had to greet her, as she was someone he couldnât afford to offend.
However, after taking care of both sides, he promptly excused himself and withdrew, an action that Chen Mobai admired greatly.
âOuter gate disciple Lan Lingping pays her respects to Divine Wood Sect Elder Chen,â
In the South Mountain Shop at White Moon Market, a beautiful woman in blue bowed to Chen Mobai.
Behind her stood a female cultivator in a light blue dress, who appeared to be her disciple. Her face was veiled, so her features were not visible, but her eyes were as spectacular as a painting, her skin like snow, and her figure tall. She was likely another breathtaking beauty.
âIâve heard a lot about Elder Lan; having seen you today, your charm is truly unmatched,â
Lan Lingping was famous as a fairy in the Eastern Wilderness in her youth. Now, although she was a mature woman, she was even more attractive. However, Chen Mobai was not interested in such charms. After exchanging courtesies, he led them to the meeting room upstairs.
As the Town Guard of Jian Country, the South Mountain Shop in White Moon Market occupies a prime location and is a three-story building.
The third floor is the warehouse, the second floor is the meeting room, and the ground floor is the normal selling area.
After Chen Mobai and Lan Lingping took their seats, Liu Wenbo skillfully began to brew tea. The veiled female cultivator kneeled to the side, listening attentively.
âI need the Cold Ice Condensing Crystal, Elder Lan, please name your price. What will it take to sell?â
Chen Mobai was a candid man and spoke directly about the reason he had invited Lan Lingping.
âPlease allow me to speak straightforwardly. This Cold Ice Condensing Crystal was obtained by our sect from the Snow Mountain Cold Pond. It is very useful for our cultivation in the Snow-blowing Palace, but it should not be of use to the Divine Wood Sect, Elder Chen. As a sword cultivator, why are you so obsessed with this item?â
Lan Lingping didnât answer directly, but instead asked about her own doubts.
âDoes this have anything to do with the trade?â
Chen Mobai was puzzled, but Lan Lingping nodded solemnly, her face serious.
âNot to conceal, my mastery of the Red Flame Sword Jue has reached a high level, and the Red Flame Spirit Power has undergone a metamorphosis, becoming extremely fierce and fiery. I need to use cold attribute spiritual objects to balance it out, remove the dry heat, in order to continue making progress. After asking around, I found that your sect has the Cold Ice Condensing Crystal, which I seek,â
Chen Mobai naturally wouldnât tell the truth, he recalled a television series about Grandmaster Yuan Yang that he had watched when he was young.
This Divinity Transformation True Monarchâs Pure Yang Spiritual Power had once encountered a great tribulation because it was too domineering. He was always unable to integrate his spirit into his Qi and form the Nascent Soul.
Later, he used the portal to go to Taiyin Star, absorbed the Taiyin Profound Qi, neutralized the Pure Yang Spiritual Power, and was able to proceed to the Nascent Soul Formation stage.
Chen Mobai slightly modified this and applied it to himself. He initially thought that the Snow-blowing Palace might not believe him, but found that Lan Lingping seemed enlightened after hearing his explanation.
âSo thatâs it, I didnât expect Elder Chen to encounter this kind of problem,â
âWhat?â
Chen Mobai was puzzled after hearing these words. He just made it up on the spot.
âItâs like this, our Snow-blowing Sectâs practice of âIce Clearing Heaven Heart Methodâ allows us to cultivate Ice Spirit Power from the Water Spirit Root. However, if one does not possess a true Ice Spirit Root, the physical body will become rigid as one advances the cultivation,â
Lan Lingping laughed and explained to Chen Mobai. This situation was exactly the opposite of his situation but achieved the same end results. While speaking, she signaled her veiled female disciple to approach and extend her hands hidden in her long sleeves.
Chen Mobai saw her hands, as pale as snow and without any blood, as if the blood in her veins had lost their heat and had become light green.
âXue Ting is an example. If she doesnât resort to absorbing the gentle Fire Spiritual Power every year, with the advancement of her cultivation level, her physical body will slowly become cold and lose sensation. This is the trade I want to discuss with Elder Chen,â
Upon hearing this, Chen Mobai shifted his gaze from Xue Tingâs pale hands to Lan Lingping and had a vague understanding of why she had sought him out.
âElder Lan, feel free to make your request!â
After hearing Chen Mobaiâs words, Lan Lingping nodded. She then reached into her storage bag and took out a handful of substance which, when she opened her fingers, revealed Spirit Rice that lay on the tea table, shining like crystal jade but with a faint hint of scarlet.
Chen Mobai was very familiar with this, it was the Fire Spirit Rice from their South Mountain Shop.
âIs this rice useful for you?â
âAfter Qi Cultivation disciples practice, eating a bowl of this rice revitalizes their blood and energy,â
As Lan Lingping spoke, she took out a small rice pot. She put the Fire Spirit Rice from the tea table into the pot with water, and after a short while, there was a faint aroma of rice.
The female cultivator named Xue Ting, in front of Chen Mobai, lowered her head and ate the cooked Fire Spirit Rice through her veil.
In a short while, the pale hands of Xue Ting slowly became rosy, giving them a lifelike feel.
âI see, so itâs only useful for Qi Cultivation disciples?â
âItâs already quite remarkable. For Foundation Establishment cultivators, they would wear a Thousand-year Warm Jade to activate their Qi and blood. Since there are not many people in this stage, every elder in our Snow-blowing Palace can have one,â
