Chapter 1036: Chapter 802: A Request for 500 Billion!

Wang Zijia nodded when he saw that the other party understood his situation and said, "I can solve your ’illness’."

As soon as he spoke, the Great Hall suddenly fell silent, so quiet you could hear a pin drop.

Even Yi Chenglin, who had been sipping tea nonchalantly, paused in his actions, his gaze sharply turning to Wang Zijia.

Yi Yunhui was even more stunned; after a few moments, he seemed to come to his senses, his eyes bursting with Strong Spiritual Light as he looked at Wang Zijia and asked, "Is that true?"

Wang Zijia smiled and said, "Do you think I would joke about something like this?"

"Junior didn’t mean that, junior was saying..." Yi Yunhui hurriedly explained, but he broke off in the middle of his sentence, not knowing what to say. Caught up in his excitement, he seemed somewhat incoherent.

Wang Zijia understood this reaction well. After all, anyone who aimed for supreme status but hadn’t even reached the Peak Stage Profound Immortal would be considered firm in his Taoist heart if he wasn’t driven mad.

"But..." Wang Zijia said, then stopped himself.

Yi Yunhui, who was overjoyed a moment before, now tensed up and hastily asked, "But what?"

Yi Chenglin also inquired, "Is there a need for any Natural treasures for healing? Fellow Daoist, please speak freely, and we will seek them out!"

Wang Zijia waved his hand with a smile and said, "It’s not that. I wanted to say that the charge for this might not be cheap."

Yi Chenglin and Yi Yunhui were both stunned at once.

Seeing this, Wang Zijia said, "You wouldn’t happen to think I’ll handle this matter for you free of charge, would you?"

"Fellow Daoist jests," the two of them immediately snapped back to reality. Yi Chenglin said, "It’s just that we’ve never encountered someone like Fellow Daoist in all these years of seeking treatment. Valuable things like this always have a clear price tag, instead of involving favors or tasks in exchange. We’re just a bit surprised, that’s all."

This was the normal situation. Apart from show-offs like Wang Zijia, many people, after Becoming Immortal, didn’t have a high demand for money, or rather, for Magic money.

It wasn’t that they didn’t rely on resources, but that they didn’t rely on money.

Because the two started to show a trend of being disconnected.

The higher the circles, the more precious the Spiritual Objects and Immortal Treasures became, and everyone preferred barter trade.

It was no longer about traditional buying and selling with currency because some things couldn’t be measured that way.

Just like in this case, if Wang Zijia could solve the problem and thus create a Supreme Profound Immortal, it might indirectly lead to the emergence of a Golden Immortal, or even a Grandmaster Taiyi. How could one measure that?

In any case, whether it’s Magic money or Spirit Essence, in Immortal-level and above circles, its circulation wasn’t very wide.

Add to that, most of the Immortals were part of Factions, and as their lives stretch over tens or even hundreds of thousands of years with time, could anyone really be short of money?

Of course, this refers to normal amounts of money!

An amount like several tens of millions of Spirit Essence or billions of Magic money was still quite terrifying.

For a First-class Force to have one or two hundred billion in liquid assets and five hundred billion in resource Assets, a net worth of over a trillion was considered normal.

The Fiery Flame Sect probably had a net worth of thirty to fifty trillion, right?

Well, there was quite a bit of fluctuation in that estimate, even greater when including people!

In short, starting from the Immortal level, people’s demand for resources tended to lean toward bartering and not currency transactions, but exaggerated amounts of money still had power!

Thus, although the two of them were momentarily stunned, they didn’t relax. Instead, Yi Yunhui asked anxiously, "May I ask, how much money would make it worthwhile for senior to make a move?"

Wang Zijia pondered for a moment, then estimated the Fiery Flame Sect’s limit based on the information in his head and said:

"I can offer you two options; thirty million Spirit Essence for one, and fifty million Spirit Essence for the other. You can choose for yourselves."

Upon hearing this fee, both of their expressions stiffened.

For the Fiery Flame Sect’s finances, thirty million was a stretch; fifty million would indeed require them to empty their coffers and sell off their assets.

It wasn’t that they only had that much money, but that it was extravagant to come up with that amount in a short time.

It’s like in the Previous Life: there were many companies with market values of several trillion, but this market value and being able to put forth three to five hundred billion in liquid funds at a moment’s notice for an investment were completely different concepts.

After exchanging glances, Yi Chenglin cautiously asked, "Friend Chiyang, what’s the difference between these two options...?"

Wang Zijia took a sip of tea, then replied indifferently, "Friend Yunhui, although you have been delayed in your Cultivation due to some issues, it’s also a blessing in disguise; your body has accumulated a significant foundation, and it’s a classic case of building up strength over time."

"If you choose the fifty million Spirit Essence treatment, I can guarantee that not only will you, Friend Yunhui, recover fully, but you will directly Breakthrough to Profound Immortal and even advance to the Peak Stage Profound Immortal to a certain extent."

"If it’s thirty million, then I’ll only guarantee to solve the main problems with your body. As for the rapid progress after the buildup, that will be all up to you, Fellow Daoist."

Both of them, upon hearing this, simultaneously showed wry smiles. With Wang Zijia putting it that way, did they really have a choice?

After looking at each other again, without the need to communicate further, their many thousands of years together made them understand each other’s thoughts.

Yi Chenglin fell silent for a moment, then asked Wang Zijia hesitantly, "Fifty million Spirit Essence is indeed a large amount."

"Of course, I’m not saying it’s not worth it. On the contrary, it would be we who are getting a great deal if things are as you say."

"But to come up with such a large sum of Spirit Essence in a short period, we really can’t manage it. Could Fellow Daoist perhaps accommodate us by allowing instalments? Or we could sell a few Floating Islands, or even outside the Flame Palace, a couple of the Endless Volcano mountains to Fellow Daoist?"
