“With the large-scale and bulk shipments, the market prices of these spiritual plants and herbs continue to plummet. Rumor even has it that near the Wood Attribute spiritual energy cave, there are two more caves of the same scale hidden.”
Jiao Xiuyuan shook his head and sighed.
“Imagine this, you painstakingly cultivate these spiritual plants and herbs for more than half a year before they finally mature. Excitedly, you reap them in hopes of fetching a good price.”
“But when you enter the market, prices have plummeted to that of cabbages, making it impossible to even recoup the costs.”
“Who can bear this!”
“In such a situation, who would be willing to grow their own? It’s better to buy directly from the market!”
Li Fan nodded, “So that’s how it is. Then this Little Pharma Sovereign
Cauldron, if I buy it, will also be useless.”
“Don’t buy, don’t buy!” Li Fan then said impatiently.
Jiao Xiuyuan quickly discouraged him: “Fellow Daoist, reconsider. Although the prices of spiritual plants and herbs have dropped for now, what about in the future? Who can guarantee they won’t rise again?”
“Items like this Little Pharma Sovereign Cauldron are rare to find! If you miss this opportunity, there won’t be another.”
“Even if you don’t plant any herbs, simply having some flowers and plants around is good!”
Jiao Xiuyuan fully demonstrated his eloquence in persuading Li Fan.
“Well…” Li Fan seemed tempted.
Jiao Xiuyuan seized the opportunity and continued to increase his offer: “I see that you, fellow Daoist, seem to be a regular customer of the Thousand Miles Hall. So today, I’m offering a ‘buy one, get one free’ deal at a loss.” As he sD0ke. he Dulled out another small cauldron from somewhere and slammed it onto the table.
Looking at the two identical cauldrons on the table, Li Fan cast a doubtful glance at Jiao Xiuyuan: “You wouldn’t be fooling me, would you? Are these Little Pharma Sovereign Cauldrons really from the ruins of the Medicine King Sect?”
Jiao Xiuyuan became anxious: “Of course, they’re authentic! Our business of Thousand Miles Hall spreads across the Immortal Cultivation World, how could we jeopardize our reputation!”
“Look, there’s still dirt on them that hasn’t been cleaned off properly!” Jiao Xiuyuan patted the two small cauldrons, causing dust to fall.
“500 contribution points, and it’s ‘buy one, get one free’! You won’t lose on this deal, fellow Daoist!”
Seeing Jiao Xiuyuan’s assurance, Li Fan pondered for a moment but still shook his head: “Forget it, I don’t have many contribution points to spare. I came here with other matters to attend to. I can’t afford these Little Pharma Sovereign Cauldrons now!”
“Wait, what other matter? Speak up! Maybe I can help. After all, you’re my regular customer, right?” Jiao Xiuyuan became anxious as Li Fan changed his mind.
Only then did Li Fan explain his purpose of being there.
“Oh, looking for a place in the world where cultivators breaking through the
Refining Energy phase to the Foundation Establishment phase are plentiful.
That’s no challenge! If you buy these two Little Pharma Sovereign Cauldrons, I’ll give you this information for free!” Jiao Xiuyuan generously proposed.
“Alright, since you put it that way.” Li Fan took out five top-grade spirit stones he had prepared from his storage ring and handed them over.
“Very straightforward!” While afraid that Li Fan might change his mind, Jiao Xiuyuan quickly pocketed the spirit stones.
He then took out a blank jade scroll, held it in his hand for a while, then handed it over together with the two small cauldrons to Li Fan.
Li Fan put away the Little Pharma Sovereign Cauldrons and started to read the content of the jade scroll.
“A Foundation Establishment Master? Interesting.” Having accomplished his objective, Li Fan was ready to go directly to his destination.
As for the two Little Pharma Sovereign Cauldrons, they were only 500 contribution points so he bought them on a whim. Jiao Xiuyuan’s words did make some sense; the cauldrons might come in handy someday.
After walking a few steps, Li Fan suddenly remembered something.
Turning around, he stared at Jiao Xiuyuan intently, deep in thought.
Then he quietly left.
Jiao Xiuyuan didn’t pay attention to Li Fan’s action and mumbled to himself, “Digging out thirty-six small cauldrons cost me several days’ worth of labor, yet I’ve only managed to sell ten. What rotten luck…”
Southeast region of the Misthaven Ocean.
This area is quite spacious, apart from an unnamed island in the center, there are no other islands within a radius of thousands of miles.
As for the Foundation Establishment Master that Jiao Xiuyuan mentioned, he resides on this island.
Although he is only at the Late Stage of Foundation Establishment, it is said that he has a deep understanding of the foundation establishment process.
He can guide cultivators to shorten the time required for foundation establishment.
Many cultivators visit him for guidance with the mind to give it a try.
And sure enough, his guidance is very effective.
However, cultivators generally like to maintain appearances. After successfully establishing their foundation, most of them are unwilling to admit that they relied on someone else’s help for their foundation establishment.
Therefore, they rarely discuss this matter with others.
The fame of a Foundation Establishment Master is only spread among certain crowds.
Just when Li Fan was heading towards the island where the Foundation Establishment Master resides, a wisp of spiritual consciousness left with Zhang Haobo returned feedback.
Li Fan’s mind stirred, his attention back on Zhang Haobo once again.
At this moment, the wind and rain gradually dispersed, and the sky had already cleared up.
“Wind…”
Zhang Haobo opened his eyes, murmured softly, his eyes seeming to gather a storm.
A breeze brushed past.
“Rain…” Zhang Haobo said quietly again.
Drizzling raindrops once again fell from the heavens.
“When both wind and rain come together…”
Zhang Haobo’s eyes flashed brilliantly as he announced.
As the fresh wind blew past, the rain gradually intensified.
The rain fell from the sky like curtains of broken strings.
Rainfall brought gusts.
The wind howled, becoming louder and louder, further fueling the rain to fall more heavily.
Gradually, the clouds in the sky were attracted from the west and seemed to converge into dark clouds.
Bringing heavy rain again.
A gale wind whipped up monstrous waves which continuously churned.
An unstoppable momentum.
The rain borrowed the might of the wind, and the wind aided the rain’s ferocity.
This cycle went on, constantly enhancing each other, seemingly unending.
Bearing witness to a new storm about to be born between Heaven and Earth.
But abruptly, the clouds dispersed.
The wind suddenly ceased.
The strange phenomenon noticeably disappeared on the spot.
Zhang Haobo let out a hearty laugh, then lost his strength and fell backwvard.
He plunged from the heights into the sea, causing a towering splash.
He sank to the bottom, completely silent.
“When both wind and rain come together…”
Li Fan, who had seen everything under heaven and earth, couldn’t help but marvel at all this.
This Divine technique, although Zhang Haobo couldn’t fully execute it due to exhaustion.
But it was enough to faintly discern the ensuing power once it is fully executed. “I hope from now on, you can bring me more surprises.”
With his mind back to his main body, Li Fan continued on his way to his destination.
Three days later.
The island where the Foundation Establishment Master resided was already within sight.
It seemed that there was only a small courtyard-like building on the island.
Li Fan reduced his flying speed and slowly landed in front of the courtyard.
The gate was wide open, and a listless young man was leaning against it. He glanced at Li Fan and lazily said: “The Master will lend a hand, guaranteeing Foundation Establishment, no tricks involved.” “Provide your own Natural Treasures.”
“Price: 2000 contribution points, or equivalent Spirit Stones..”
