Chapter 266: Chapter 235:1000 Top Grade Spirit Stones_1

“Top Quality Dustfall Pills and Haoyuan Pills! How is it even possible?!!” The shopkeeper exclaimed in shock.

These two types of pills are excellent for assisting in the breakthrough from the Foundation Establishment Stage to the Golden Core Stage. They were rarely seen in the market, and even at the lower-grade level, they would be swiftly snapped up whenever they appear.

As for the middle and high grades, they are usually only available in big sects.

The value of Dustfall Pills and Haoyuan Pills for the big sects is similar to Foundation Establishment Pills, and they are strictly controlled.

Because if these two types of pills are lost in large quantities, it can easily affect their control over their subordinates.

The shopkeeper, who had lived over a hundred years, saw this top-grade Dustfall and Haoyuan pill for the first time.

What Xu Mu said next left him speechless in surprise.

“This is not top quality, it’s ‘beyond-top-grade’, simply put, is one grade higher than top quality,”

Xu Mu’s tone was indifferent, but to the shopkeeper, it was like a shock to his senses.

“Beyond top-grade? Is there really someone in this world who can refine beyond-top-grade tier seven pills? Could it be a tier ten Alchemist?”

The shopkeeper’s mind was a bit muddled.

The status of a tier ten Alchemist is even higher than that of an average Nascent Soul Stage cultivator.

Why would such a person be selling pills in the black market?

As long as the party is willing, many sects would eagerly seek their alliance.

“May I ask senior, where these pills came from…”

“Hmph! When did this place start to pry into buyers’ backgrounds? Or are you saying you don’t want to take it?”

As he spoke, Xu Mu began to put away the pills, preparing to leave.

“Senior, do not be angry! It’s all my fault, all my fault!”

The shopkeeper immediately became anxious, realizing his mistake and promptly apologizing, with an exceedingly humble attitude.

Honestly, he was so tense looking at these pills that for a moment he lost his sense, and instinctively asked the question.

For him, at the late Foundation Establishment Stage, these pills were nothing short of divine lifesavers.

If he were to consume them, there would be a high probability of breaking through to the Golden Core Stage.

The Foundation Establishment Stage and the Golden Core Stage are completely different levels. If he could break through to the Golden Core Stage, his status would immediately leap forward, becoming a member of the black market management.

In the face of such an opportunity, it was hard to keep full composure.

Seeing the shopkeeper behaving in this way, Xu Mu reluctantly sat down again. “I wonder what price the senior has in mind for these pills?”

The shopkeeper asked with a smile.

“What do you think?” Xu Mu replied indifferently.

“Well, that…, that…”

The shopkeeper timidly rubbed his hands, as if summoning some courage, and then proposed, “How about twenty high-grade spirit stones a pill?”

“Hehe!”

Xu Mu chuckled and rose again, preparing to leave.

“Senior, don’t be hasty! Isn’t negotiating prices part of doing business? We ask for the moon, then haggle down to the earth! Senior, if you think it’s acceptable, five high-grade spirit stones!”

The shopkeeper hurriedly explained.

This price for a typical tier seven pill would be a hefty sum.

Even the high-grade Yuan Yang Pills used to enhance the Golden Core Stage cultivation, only sell for 150 middle-grade spirit stones, equivalent to one and a half high-grade spirit stone.

Yet, the price for Dustfall Pills and Haoyuan Pills is twenty times greater.

Despite this high price, Xu Mu still showed no interest.

“Senior, senior, could you please name your price!”

The shopkeeper quickly chased after him, breaking into a cold sweat.

He had no choice; these pills were of great importance to him.

If he could handle this business, he might likely receive a reward which would give him the opportunity to break through to the long-desired Golden Core Stage.

Not only would his powers be greatly enhanced, he would also live several centuries longer, a chance anyone would go mad for.

“Fifty high-grade spirit stones per pill! I have ten of each type of pill here, adding up to exactly one thousand high-grade spirit stones! I don’t need to explain how precious these pills are, honestly, beyond-top-grade pills are several times better than top-grade. If I weren’t in need of spirit stones, I wouldn’t even consider selling them. If you are willing, we can make the transaction now. If not, then I’ll take my leave! But you should know, if you wish to buy pills of this grade in the future, you can only dream of it!!”

Xu Mu cut to the chase when he spoke.

He understood better than anyone the value of these two types of pills.

Honestly, the price he was asking for was not high at all.

If he wasn’t selling on the black market, and if he wasn’t trying to avoid attracting too much attention, even if he sold for sixty high-grade spirit stones, people would still want them.

As long as the foundation isn’t too bad, with the help of the beyond-top-grade pills he refined, one could nearly achieve a 100% promotion.

Imagine, for just a hundred spirit stones one could advance to the Golden Core Stage, how many people wouldn’t be moved.

“One thousand high-grade spirit stones!!”

The shopkeeper was so nervous that he began to sweat from his palms.

He had been working in this shop for many years and had never come across such a large transaction.

One thousand high-grade spirit stones, it would be enough to buy dozens of decent magical treasures!

Moreover, Xu Mu directly doubled the price of the pills, which vastly exceeded his expectations. However, if these pills truly had the effect Xu Mu claimed, of being several times better than top-grade, then this price wasn’t high at all.

No wonder Xu Mu rose and was just about to leave when he heard his price.

“This is a big matter; I can’t make this decision on my own. Could I get permission from my superiors?” The shopkeeper asked cautiously.

The price that Xu Mu gave was far beyond his authority, and he didn’t dare to make a hasty commitment without getting approval from his superiors.

“I don’t have a lot of time, you better be quick.” Xu Mu stood with his hands behind his back, his tone still indifferent.

“Yes, yes, yes!”

The shopkeeper nodded repeatedly, then quickly left the room to use a jade talisman to contact the Golden Core Stage who was in charge of the black market.

Xu Mu calmly stood in the room waiting.

Dustfall Pills and Haoyuan Pills were frighteningly valuable, especially at the beyond-top-grade level.

If Xu Mu hadn’t broken through to the Golden Core Stage and didn’t have many backups, he wouldn’t dare to casually sell them.

“I just hope they won’t pull any tricks!” Xu Mu secretly thought.

If the pills could be smoothly sold, that’d be best, as he already had enough troubles and didn’t want any more.

If it weren’t for the need to quickly improve his cultivation and his lack of other ways to earn money, he would not risk selling beyond-top-grade pills.

Of course, he could also sell the high-grade and top-grade Dustfall Pills and Haoyuan Pills, but the profit margin of these two grades of pills didn’t meet his demands, and the other one wasn’t much different than the beyond-top-grade.

Rather, the beyond-top-grade pills might intimidate his prospective counterpart a bit.

Not long after, three Golden Core Stage presences appeared in the shop.

However, only one of them, the most potent Golden Core Stage person, came in.

He was dressed in a green robe, slightly short, wearing a white mask similar to Xu Mu’s, with a long black beard extending from underneath the mask.

His eyes, like that of exquisite gems, gave off a soft, subliminal glow, emitting a sense of profundity and weightiness.

“I am Liu Wuheng! Greetings, fellow Daoist!”
