Chapter 848: Chapter 844: Encountering Xiang Mingzhi

Looking at the Nine Yang Spirit Jade Beds in each room, Liu Yun sighed, “Having money is indeed good.”

Everyone laughed.

Then, each person chose a courtyard.

With a place to stay, Huang Xiaolong could cultivate peacefully, waiting for the competition day to arrive.

Huang Xiaolong took out the Heavenly God Mountain and flew into the Heavenly God Cave Mansion at the peak of the Heavenly God Mountain to cultivate.

Thus, every day, Huang Xiaolong swallowed a Purple Crystal Water Soaking Divine Pill, absorbing the power of the three major Star Rivers to continuously temper his body.

More than a month quickly passed.

During this month, Huang Xiaolong stayed in the courtyard to cultivate without stepping out. He lost count of how many Purple Crystal Water Soaking Divine Pills he had consumed.

After more than a month of cultivation, Huang Xiaolong’s strength increased significantly.

On this day, Liu Yun and Qi Wen came to Huang Xiaolong’s courtyard.

“Junior Brother, it’s only three days until the competition day. How about we go out for a walk? I heard that the Eternal Ancient Trading House in Wangu City released a booklet that lists the names of all galaxy disciples who signed up with strength above the Divine-level Third Rank,” Liu Yun said. “These are all geniuses with a chance to rank in the top thousand this time.”

Names of disciples above Divine-level Third Rank? Huang Xiaolong’s interest was piqued, and he nodded, “Sure.”

Even though he was confident in his strength, it wouldn’t hurt to understand others’ abilities before the competition.

After all, there were only three days left until the competition, so a short outing for relaxation would be good.

Wangu City was the largest and most prosperous city in the Ancient Star River, perfect for a stroll.

Thus, the three of them left the Blue Waves Mansion and headed towards the Eternal Ancient Trading House.

The Blue Waves Mansion was located in the center area of Wangu City, not far from the Eternal Ancient Trading House. Soon, the three of them arrived at the trading house.

There were already many galaxy disciples gathered in the Eternal Ancient Trading House, seemingly here to buy the booklet and gather information.

Huang Xiaolong and the others entered the hall.

At the counter, Huang Xiaolong explained their purpose, only to be stunned that the booklet recording the names of the galaxy disciples with strength above Divine-level Third Rank cost twenty million Eternal Coins!

Even Huang Xiaolong was amazed, thinking the Wangu Clan had some nerve, charging twenty million Eternal Coins for a thin booklet.

If ten people bought it, that’s two hundred million, a hundred people would be two billion, a thousand people, twenty billion.

The number of disciples signing up wasn’t one billion, but there were at least tens of millions.

If everyone bought a copy, the wealth the Wangu Clan could amass from just this thin booklet might surpass the accumulation of the Xuanwu Academy over thousands of years.

Huang Xiaolong paid the twenty million Eternal Coins and bought a book, storing it in the Asura Ring to look at later.

“Would you like to purchase some battle armor or weapons?” a female disciple from the Wangu Clan approached Huang Xiaolong and asked. “Our Eternal Ancient Trading House has all sorts of battle armor and weapons. Having a powerful set could help you achieve a better ranking in the competition.”

Huang Xiaolong’s interest was piqued, though he did not need battle armor or weapons, as he had the Water God’s Light, Heavenly God Mountain, and Mulberry Wood Sword. However, he could buy some healing elixir pills.

Although his Asura Ring lacked nothing, including Spring and Autumn Hundred Life Divine Pills, it was always better to have more.

So, Huang Xiaolong asked, “Do you have any healing elixir pills, like the Spring and Autumn Hundred Life Divine Pill?”

The female disciple from the Wangu Clan smiled, “We do, and we have even better healing elixir pills than the Spring and Autumn Hundred Life Divine Pill. Please follow me.” She led Huang Xiaolong and the others to the Elixir Medicine Hall.

Huang Xiaolong’s eyes lit up. Better healing pills than the Spring and Autumn Hundred Life Divine Pill? Could it be the Undying Divine Pill?!

The Undying Divine Pill did indeed have better healing effects than the Spring and Autumn Hundred Life Divine Pill. However, the materials for crafting it were exceedingly rare, and its recipe was lost in the Four Great Star Rivers. Could the Wangu Clan have it?

Before long, Huang Xiaolong and the others followed the female disciple from the Wangu Clan to the Elixir Medicine Hall.

Though smaller than the main hall, the Elixir Medicine Hall was still quite large, with bottles of elixir pills lining the walls, dazzling Huang Xiaolong and the others.

There were at least thousands, if not ten thousand varieties of these elixir pills.

Most were Holy-level, with some from the Xuanwu Star River and Four Great Star Rivers already long lost.

At the healing elixir pills cabinet, Huang Xiaolong saw the Spring and Autumn Hundred Life Divine Pill, but there were three other types above it.

One of the jade bottles had the words “Undying Divine Pill” inscribed on it.

Besides the Undying Divine Pill, the other two were called the Absolute Divine Pill and the Ten Thousand Spirit Divine Pill.

Huang Xiaolong was familiar with the Undying Divine Pill but had never heard of the Absolute Divine Pill and the Ten Thousand Spirit Divine Pill. However, since these two were placed on the top shelf alongside the Undying Divine Pill, their effects must be comparable.

“All healing elixir pills are here. These are better than the Spring and Autumn Hundred Life Divine Pill: the Undying Divine Pill, Absolute Divine Pill, and Ten Thousand Spirit Divine Pill,” the female disciple from the Wangu Clan said. “Which would you like to buy, and how much?”

Huang Xiaolong smacked his lips and said, “How many Undying Divine Pills, Absolute Divine Pills, and Ten Thousand Spirit Divine Pills do you have? I’ll take them all.”

All of them?

The female disciple from the Wangu Clan was dumbfounded, then let out a small laugh, “Sir, you must be joking. You probably don’t know the price of the Undying Divine Pill, Absolute Divine Pill, and Ten Thousand Spirit Divine Pill. Each of these Divine Pills costs hundreds of times more than the Spring and Autumn Hundred Life Divine Pill, nearly a hundred billion per bottle.”

A bottle, nearly a hundred billion!

Liu Yun and Qi Wen swallowed hard.

If the average family disciple heard this price, they might be scared out of their wits, knowing that a hundred billion could buy ten nice mansions in Xuanwu City, and even some outskirt mansions in Wangu City only cost one to two hundred billion.

Huang Xiaolong was surprised, not expecting the price of one bottle of the Undying Divine Pill, Absolute Divine Pill, and Ten Thousand Spirit Divine Pill to be nearly a hundred billion. However, he was happy; the higher the price of these three pills, the better their effect. He wasn’t afraid of high prices but of low ones.

Huang Xiaolong took out a Space Ring and handed it to the female disciple from the Wangu Clan, saying, “There are twenty thousand top-level divine-grade divine stones inside. However many of these three Divine Pills your trading house has, I want them all.”

The female disciple from the Wangu Clan was stunned, then looked at the twenty thousand top-level divine-grade divine stones inside the Space Ring with a face full of shock.

Twenty thousand top-level divine-grade divine stones, that’s 1.6 trillion!

At a price of a hundred billion per bottle, this could buy one hundred and sixty bottles!

The female disciple hurriedly contacted a high-level deacon from the Elixir Medicine Hall. Upon learning that Huang Xiaolong had come with two thousand top-level divine-grade divine stones wanting to buy the Undying Divine Pill, Absolute Divine Pill, and Ten Thousand Spirit Divine Pill, the deacon was extremely shocked, and quickly came to Huang Xiaolong, personally handing over one hundred ten bottles of the Undying Divine Pill, Absolute Divine Pill, and Ten Thousand Spirit Divine Pill.

The Eternal Ancient Trading House didn’t have much stock of the three healing elixir pills like the Undying Divine Pill, only a little over a hundred bottles.

The extra five hundred billion was used by Huang Xiaolong to purchase Spring and Autumn Hundred Life Divine Pills.

After buying the elixir pills, Huang Xiaolong and the others left the Elixir Medicine Hall and went to the hall, preparing to leave the Eternal Ancient Trading House when unexpectedly, they ran into an old acquaintance of Huang Xiaolong’s.

Xiang Mingzhi!

Xiang Mingzhi was apparently also there to buy the booklet and was also surprised to see Huang Xiaolong. He then smiled and walked toward Huang Xiaolong. (. Mobile users, please visit m.qidian.com to read.)
