I Have A Cultivation World

Chapter 2775 -

[How much?]

[The preliminary valuation is 10 Dao Merits, but we will need you to send it to us for our store’s treasure appraisers to confirm the actual value.]

[Who covers the shipping costs?]

[The customer pays upfront; if the magic artifact is not accepted, it will be returned to you, but the shipping cost will not be reimbursed. If we accept the artifact, the shipping cost will be split evenly.]

...

Chen Mobai discussed with customer service representatives from stores involved in buying magic artifacts inside the portal, and the prices offered varied significantly; Demon Dao Artifacts with no provenance were generally halved to begin with.

The rest of the process was similar.

Online transactions only provide a preliminary valuation; for actual sales, the item must be sent for offline appraisal.

After all, a Sixth Rank Peak artifact isn’t cheap, and video or photos alone won’t suffice.

Chen Mobai currently wants to sell the Hell Disk because it’s been refined by the Black Fly Demon God and contains the demon god’s will, making it troublesome.

However, the shipping cost is prohibitive, so he hesitates.

He’s considering looking for a shop from Xuanhu Dojo and asking the Spiritual Venerable to make a trip; negotiating as a Nascent Soul cultivator is less likely to be disadvantageous.

Apart from the magic treasure, Chen Mobai also inquired about the Kui Beast carcass.

Since it’s not alive, there’s little interest; the True Spirit Bloodline of the Kui Beast isn’t very high level, and the one Chen Mobai has lost control during the Heart Demon Tribulation, exhausting its essence and dying, making it nearly the worst Sixth Rank.

Chen Mobai contacted several beef shops, but none were interested, fearing it died of illness. Finally, professional Qi Yuheng advised selling it to pet food stores instead.

This area is less regulated, and those making money there tend to be less scrupulous.

After approaching several stores, over half showed interest, and he chose one closest to Fushang Star that offered doorstep delivery.

The selling price was half a Dao Merit; Chen Mobai felt it was low but was satisfied it sold.

Besides Kui Beast meat, the hardest ox horn was bought by an artifact refining shop for half a Dao Merit. The horn contained the essence of the Kui Beast, and Chen Mobai thought that if it didn’t sell, he would keep it for his own artifact refining in the future.

All shops he sold to were local to Xuanhu Dojo, so he saved on shipping by asking the Spiritual Venerable to deliver.

The remaining Kui Beast skin wasn’t deemed worthy of Dao Merit by the artifact refining shop, willing to offer only Xuanhu Coin.

Chen Mobai decided to keep it.

He could use it to upgrade his Pure Yang Spell Robe or refine a separate Sixth Rank Taoist Robe.

Of course, he also extracted the Kui Beast’s essence blood.

Before turning the meat into pet food, it needed to be bled, which Chen Mobai handled for the store.

Once Qing Nu finished using the old Flood Dragon and Civet Power’s essence blood, he could attempt using Kui Beast’s essence blood to refine Longevity Great Dao Pill.

Though the Kui Beast exhausted its essence before dying, the remaining True Spirit’s Blood was sufficient to refine Fifth Rank Elixir in five to six batches.

It could serve as the foundation for Five Elements Sect’s rise to Ancient Sacred Land.

Additionally, the Kui Beast’s Sixth Rank inner core was fed directly to the Purple Electric Sword, absorbing the essence of the Power of the Great Dao, potentially allowing the sword to advance to Sixth Rank Lower Grade Peak. The next step was continuous refinement within the Great Tao, hoping to elevate it as a Treasure of Dao along with his Harmonization.

However, this possibility was very slim.

Since Chen Mobai doesn’t practice the Great Dao of Destruction.

[Why not gift it to Bai Guang one day?]

Chen Mobai thought of his wife working abroad and realized he hadn’t given her any valuable gifts. The Purple Electric Sword seemed perfect and matched her attributes.

He’s unsure if Bai Guang would want it, as she already owns the Heartless Sword.

Next, Chen Mobai investigated Fushang Star’s aerial defense, finding that the alarm only triggers with unreported entrance using Void Secret Technique.

Flying directly from an uninhabited area into space isn’t regulated.

However, the outermost Heaven and Earth Placenta of Fushang Star is surrounded by Meridian Cold and Hot Gang Wind from Xuanhu Dojo’s depths, containing hot and cold energies, dissolving the Primordial Spirit and corroding flesh of God-Transcending cultivators.

Only pathways opened by Nascent Soul cultivators allow safe passage through this Meridian Cold and Hot Gang Wind.

There are some smuggling routes too.

But since the Spiritual Venerable is a Nascent Soul being and practiced Wind Great Dao, attempting to enter and exit the Meridian Cold and Hot Gang Wind felt like returning home.

Chen Mobai shared his situation with the Spiritual Venerable, who didn’t hesitate and silently flew out of Fushang Star with the handled Kui Beast carcass.

A month later, Chen Mobai’s account was credited with 1 Dao Merit.

Seeing his balance increase from 3 to 4, Chen Mobai sighed deeply, realizing Dao Merits are not easy to earn.

He still had three Daoist Talismans from the Spiritual Venerable, needing just 2 more Dao Merits to purchase the Xuanxu Pill.

Regarding the magic treasure business, he inquired at several shops in Xuanhu Dojo, all requiring formal procedures for acceptance. Any Sixth Rank Artifact transaction at Xuanhu Dojo must be registered due to taxation obligations.

Of course, there are untaxed dark markets like the Demon Market Platform.
