Chapter 1736 - Chapter 1736 Chapter 753 Astounding Wealth Purchasing Tao

Chapter 1736: Chapter 753: Astounding Wealth, Purchasing Tao Sword_2 Chapter 1736: Chapter 753: Astounding Wealth, Purchasing Tao Sword_2 For Daoist Fruit Realm Cultivators, owning a high-level Taoist Tool was not uncommon.

“Good, Daoist, please come this way. Our pavilion has countless Daoist Swords, the number of high-level Tao Swords will definitely exceed what you imagine; you are sure to find one you like.”

Wang, the shopkeeper, led Han Yi to the upper levels of the pavilion.

Along the way, Han Yi saw various cultivators and shopkeepers coming and going, including Immortals and Dao Realm Cultivators, among whom those at the Unity Realm Stage were not rare.

His understanding of the strength and foundation of Yutian Pavilion deepened further.

Yutian Pavilion had only nine floors in total, but each floor was quite spacious. Each floor was also divided into many areas, with some selling Talismans, some selling Artifact Refining materials, as well as Immortal Artifacts and Tao Artifacts, with ample variety.

A moment later, Han Yi followed Wang, the shopkeeper, onto the seventh floor to a large hall, which was so expansive it could be described as vast.

Around the walls of the hall, there were numerous mounted boxes, densely packed. Han Yi swept his eyes over them and roughly knew their number.

One thousand three hundred and sixty-five.

He suddenly thought of something, and his breathing momentarily choked up, exhaling slightly with a look of shock on his face, “Are all the boxes around here high-level Tao Swords?”

The mounted boxes on the walls didn’t reveal any aura, not even a hint.

But as Han Yi had moved up from the first floor, his understanding of Yutian Pavilion had increased. As the floors went higher, the grade of treasures sold also correspondingly increased. Based on his calculations, the level on this seventh floor should have reached high-level Taoist Tools.

As Han Yi was in need of a Tao Sword, this was his guess.

Wang, the shopkeeper, nodded, observing Han Yi’s shock but being accustomed to it.

“That’s right, all the boxes that the Daoist sees are indeed high-level Tao Swords.”

“Please follow me here.”

Wang, the shopkeeper, led Han Yi to the center of the hall, where there were compartments flashing with bright lights.

As Han Yi walked into one of the compartments, he noticed that from the outside you couldn’t see inside, but from the inside, you could see outside. The compartment did not feel cramped, but spacious enough.

“Daoist, please have a seat here.”

Wang, the shopkeeper, led Han Yi to sit down and then took out a gold token the size of a palm. With a thought from his Tao Thought, it touched the token, which then emitted a glow.

Following that,

Han Yi saw one of the boxes mounted on the wall of the hall being pulled towards his location, passing through the compartment, and landing directly on the jade table in front of him.

The shopkeeper placed the token on the box, which emitted a Spirit Light and then slowly converged. Subsequently, the box opened automatically, revealing a long sword placed inside.

Wang, the shopkeeper, summoned the sword with a gesture and suspended it in front of Han Yi.

“This sword, the Heavenly Blade Dao Sword, is of a high-level grade. Please inspect it carefully.”

This scene stirred Han Yi’s heart; the last time he formally purchased a Sword Tool was when he’d just advanced to True Immortal, at Zhengyang Pavilion where he bought a Sword Tool from Li Zhengyang.

The scenarios similar to the current one were even further in the past, tracing back to before he had become an Immortal.

He reined in his wandering thoughts, focusing his gaze on the Dao Sword before him.

The blade of the Dao Sword was silver, while the hilt and handle were black. The silver sword-light pulsed with extremely small amplitudes, akin to the breathing of a person, which slightly surprised Han Yi.

There were no characters engraved on the sword body, and without the shopkeeper’s introduction, one couldn’t tell the name of the sword from its body.

However, from the aura of the sword-light and the response of Han Yi’s probing Tao Thought, this sword was undoubtedly a high-level Taoist Tool.

However, it was just an ordinary high-level Tao Sword, slightly weaker than his own Qiushui Sword.

“How much is this sword?” Han Yi asked.

Wang, the shopkeeper, didn’t answer directly but explained, “Tao Artifacts are divided into initial, middle, and high stages.”

“If settled with Tao Crystals, the price of initial-stage Tao Artifacts ranges from ten thousand to one million Tao Crystals, middle-stage Tao Artifacts range from one million to one hundred million Tao Crystals, and high-stage Tao Artifacts are over one hundred million Tao Crystals, with no upper limit.”

Han Yi nodded his head. Although he had never purchased a Taoist Tool from any trading pavilion, he was very clear about the price, as it was the standard rate in Chaos.

Additionally, Taoist Tools were only classified into three stages. As for the Unity Realm, the tools used were also High-level Taoist Tools, just possibly the most top-notch ones, thus they were often referred to as Peak Taoist Tools. However, in reality, there was no such tier as “peak” in the division of Taoist Tools.

Seeing that Han Yi had no objections to the pricing tier of the Taoist Tools, the shopkeeper continued to speak,

“The Heavenly Blade Dao Sword is the most common High-level Taoist Sword, priced at one hundred and twenty million Tao Crystals.”

“What do you think, Daoist?”

Han Yi shifted his gaze away from the Tao Sword. He was indifferent about this sword, but the aura of slaughter on it was slightly weaker, which did not meet his requirements.

His current path of cultivation required that the Tao Sword he used must be a sword of slaughter–ferocious, sharp, and meant for killing.

Before buying the sword, he needed to exchange all the treasures he didn’t need for the common currency of the Tao Realm, namely Tao Crystals.

Because if it was just about buying one or a few High-level Tao Swords, the Tao Crystals he had gathered would suffice. However, if he were to buy a dozen, or even up to a hundred High-level Tao Swords, it would be far from enough.

Therefore, he needed to clear out some of “inventory” to exchange for a huge amount of Tao Crystals.

“Shopkeeper, the Tao Crystals required for the Tao Swords I want to purchase might not be sufficient on me. Could I perhaps sell other Dao-level treasures on me to your pavilion first? After I have enough Tao Crystals, then I can buy the Tao Swords?”

Wang, the shopkeeper, understood Han Yi’s intentions and nodded normally. It was a frequent occurrence for Han Yi, and Yutian Pavilion did not only buy but also sold goods. In fact, both buying and selling could be profitable.

Thus, cultivators entering the pavilion to sell items were also welcome.

With a wave of his hand, he returned the Heavenly Blade Dao Sword back into the box, then took off a token, and the box automatically flew outward to its original position.

“Of course, that’s feasible. Daoist, bring out your items first, let me assess them, give an evaluation, and if you are agreeable, the transaction can proceed. The obtained Tao Crystals will be recorded under your name, and we will settle the payment after your final purchase.”

When Han Yi heard this, he took out a jade box, which he had obtained from the secret vault of the Mechanical Divine Clan among the nine major affiliated races in the Wisdom Realm. Inside the box, a metallic three-petal flower was placed. The flower appeared ever-changing in color as if fluttering in shades and even seemed to emit subtle sounds of wind and thunder.

Mister Wang’s eyes brightened as he gently picked up the jade box, opened it, and used various Immortal Skills and even Tao Skills to identify it before closing it back.

“This object is indeed unique, crafted from the rare Wind and Thunder Illusion Stone in Chaos. Though it’s an Initial Stage Taoist Tool in ranking, its effects are remarkable. Once deployed, it can cast Attack Illusion Skills. Even Daoist Fruit Realm Cultivators might be caught off guard.”

“Thirty thousand years ago in Yutian Pavilion, a similar treasure appeared, priced at eight hundred thousand Tao Crystals.”

“How about this, I’ll evaluate it at seven hundred thousand; what do you think, Daoist?”

Han Yi felt quite satisfied with this appraisal. After all, even if Yutian Pavilion later sold it for eight hundred thousand Tao Crystals, the service fee of a hundred thousand Tao Crystals was quite reasonable.

“Alright, let’s settle at that estimate.”

He placed the jade box on one side, looking expectantly at Han Yi, who did not disappoint him and took out another Dao-level treasure for Wang to gladly assess.

As time passed, more and more treasures were assessed, already exceeding a thousand pieces. These treasures were clearly distinct in features and evidently from different forces or worlds.

This increasingly astonished Mister Wang inwardly.

Previously, Han Yi had mentioned exchanging the treasures to purchase High-level Tao Swords. According to the current appraised Tao Crystals, they had already reached six hundred million Tao Crystals.

Did that not imply, based on the sales price of the Heavenly Blade Dao Sword, that he would purchase at least five High-level Tao Swords?

How could a cultivator at the Daoist Fruit Realm possibly wield five High-level Tao Swords?

After finishing the appraisal of one item, he finally voiced his inner doubts, “Daoist, the number of treasures you wish to sell seems vast; it wouldn’t possibly still be doubled, would it?”

“And the High-level Tao Swords you wish to purchase, surely it’s not just one?”

Han Yi’s expression remained calm, “Of course not just one. The High-level Tao Swords I want to buy are thirty-two.”

“Among them, there also needs to be one Peak Tao Sword.”

“Rest assured, the treasures I carry are absolutely enough to exchange for these Tao Swords.”

Upon hearing this, Mister Wang’s face slightly changed, and his heart surged with shockwaves.
