Cultivation: From Servant to Revered Immortal

Chapter 395: Chapter 4: Solution Magic

”This!”

The female cultivator smiled without saying anything!

Seeing this, Zhou Xun instantly understood her meaning and chuckled softly:

”I wonder, how many Spirit Stones are needed for information about the Blood Shadow Technique?”

”It depends on what kind of information you want about it. If it’s a simple introduction, only five thousand Spirit Stones are needed. If you want to know which forces have cultivated this technique, that’s a different price,”

”For example, if you want to know which forces in our Zheng Country have cultivated this technique, it only requires twenty thousand Spirit Stones. The larger the scope, the higher the price!”

Fang Liu talked confidently.

Upon hearing this price, Zhou Xun couldn’t help but click his tongue; the information trade is indeed highly profitable,

Zhou Xun spoke:

”Is there information on how to deal with this technique?”

”Of course there is!” Fang Liu glanced at Zhou Xun, nodded, and said:

”There are two ways to deal with this technique. The first is a prevention method, and the second is a solution after being hit by the technique. Which one does Brother want?”

”How much is the prevention method, and how much is the solution method?” Zhou Xun asked calmly.

”Five thousand Spirit Stones per piece for both!” Fang Liu said with a smile.

Five thousand Spirit Stones is already a considerable amount, allowing her to earn a very good commission, up to several thousand in total!

”Of course, if Daoist Brother buys both, I can make it nine thousand Spirit Stones together!”

For their Wind and Cloud Tower, the cost of the obtained information is fixed, and the more they sell, the more they earn,

The shopkeepers have significant bargaining power.

”Five thousand Spirit Stones, two pieces!” Zhou Xun took a sip of Spirit Tea and said lightly.

”That’s impossible!” Fang Liu decisively refused, shaking her head.

Upon hearing this, Zhou Xun smiled faintly and continued:

”Nine thousand Spirit Stones is too high. Besides, for information like this, it costs very little for you because, the more it sells, the more you earn,”

”Moreover, as for the Red Shadow Technique, I assume the Hundred Techniques Tower should also have it for sale,”

”Therefore, no matter how much you sell, you still earn. Conversely, if I leave, you wouldn’t earn a single Spirit Stone!”

”Considering Daoist Friend’s face, I can add another five thousand Spirit Stones. If that doesn’t work, I have to leave!”

”This...” Upon hearing this, Fang Liu bowed her head in thought, seemingly weighing the options.

After a long time, she finally raised her head, sighed, and said:

”Alright, since it’s Daoist Brother’s first visit to my tower, let’s make friends; fifty-five hundred Spirit Stones!”

”By the way, is Daoist Brother interested in purchasing the cultivation method for the Blood Shadow Technique as well? Only five thousand Spirit Stones!”

She looked at Zhou Xun with anticipation.

Upon hearing this, Zhou Xun smiled wryly, waved his hand, and said:

”These five thousand Spirit Stones have already emptied most of my assets; how could I afford it!”

”If that’s the case, it’s quite a pity... I’ll go retrieve the corresponding Jade Scroll, please wait for a moment!”

The young woman sighed, took out a Token, and whispered a few words.

In an instant, a section of the surrounding wall lit up with white light, and a wooden box appeared.

Seeing Zhou Xun’s curious gaze, the young woman explained:

”This is a small transmission restriction; it can directly send the information from the storage room to the private suite, thus preventing leaks and avoiding the risk of others spying!”

”Indeed impressive!” Zhou Xun praised.

Then he tapped his storage bag, counted out fifty-five Middle-Grade Spirit Stones, and handed them to Fang Liu.

Fang Liu then handed the wooden box to Zhou Xun.

Zhou Xun opened the wooden box, took out two Jade Scrolls, quickly checked them, and, once confirmed correct, stored them in his storage bag.

”Since the transaction is complete, I shall take my leave!”

Zhou Xun stood up and walked toward the door!

”Daoist Brother, take care!” Fang Liu smiled and waved her hand, and the suite door automatically opened.

”Senior, come with me!”

The servant from earlier was waiting at the door, and under his guidance, Zhou Xun left Wind and Cloud Tower via the back door.

...

”Xiaoyun, send a message to Elder Zhu saying that there’s news on the Blood Magic Technique!”

After Zhou Xun left, Fang Liu entered a room and summoned a woman to give orders.

”Aunt, is it the person affected by Blood Magic as True Monarch of Profound Control mentioned!”

”That’s right, the True Monarch of Profound Control has set a reward of five million for finding the person affected by Blood Magic. Now, the Wind and Moon Towers in the surrounding countries have all received this task to gather information,”

”It seems I’ll be the one to complete it!” Fang Liu expressed joy.

”Aunt, are you saying the person who purchased the Blood Magic solution is...” Xiaoyun exclaimed.

”That must be someone who escaped from True Monarch of Profound Control’s grasp; isn’t he a Foundation Establishment cultivator?”

”Certainly, he concealed his cultivation—being able to produce tens of thousands of Spirit Stones to purchase a solution for Blood Magic, combined with True Monarch of Profound Control’s reward,”

”There’s a high probability this person is the one being sought!”

Fang Liu’s eyes were sharp, revealing shrewdness.

”If I pass this information to Elder Zhu, that would be another twenty thousand in earnings; plus, being the first to complete this report, my commission and reward alone would be at least two thousand Spirit Stones!”

”Given that the person managed to escape from True Monarch of Profound Control, can Elder Zhu handle him?” The young woman asked worriedly.

”That’s a matter for Elder Zhu to consider. We just need to inform him of the report, and the prepaid twenty thousand Spirit Stones can be received!”

...

Meanwhile, in a Tier Three Cave Mansion at Qingyang Square.

A burly man with whiskers was sitting in the hall, holding a Sound Transmission Talisman, anxiously looking toward the door.

Before long, a knock on the door rang out.

”Brother Zhu, Brother Zhu!”

Upon hearing this, the man was delighted; he quickly stood up and hurried to the door of the cave mansion to open it.

”Brother Qin, you finally came!”

”Why were you so eager to summon me?”

The visitor was extremely tall, wearing a Feather Crane Daoist Robe, with gray hair, fair complexion, and two strands of long whiskers hanging down, exuding an air of immortality.

”Do you still remember the True Monarch of Profound Control’s reward!” The man quickly said.

”Of course, do you... Brother Zhu have news?” The old man moved upon hearing this, naturally guessing.

”Yes!”

”It’s about that person’s news. Upon hearing the reward, I immediately went to the Wind and Cloud Tower to purchase information. Unfortunately, even the Wind and Cloud Tower didn’t have this person’s information then!”

”So I reserved twenty thousand Spirit Stones; once they had the information, they’d notify me!”

”Just now, I received a message from Wind and Cloud Tower saying someone purchased the Blood Magic solution in their tower,”

”Tell me, at this time, who would buy this technique?”

”It must be the person True Monarch of Profound Control is looking for!” The old man asserted.

”Correct!”

”If you and I make a move, capture this person, and present him to True Monarch of Profound Control,”
