Longevity: My Talents Are a Bit Abundant

Shen Xuan took out six high-quality Golden Transformation Pills this time, equivalent to the value of twelve regular Golden Transformation Pills.

As for the Tier Three Inner Core, its value doubles or triples with each minor tier advancement.

A rough estimate shows that using six high-quality Golden Transformation Pills can exchange for one Tier Three Upper Grade Inner Core.

On the surface, Shen Xuan actually suffers a loss.

However, in the Cultivation Realm, the key to pricing is the supply-demand relationship.

He is the active buyer, and the other party holds the scarce resource.

A slight premium is entirely normal.

After repeatedly weighing the options, Shen Xuan finally selected three offers in the token restriction.

One Cloud Crane Core, one Purple Lightning Eagle Core, and one Dark Moon Wolf Inner Core Essence Blood.

All are Tier Three Upper Grade.

After selecting, all he had to do was wait for a response.

After an incense stick’s time, a rhythmic knocking sound came from outside the box.

Shen Xuan waved the token, releasing the restriction.

The door opened, and Wen Yuanhao walked in with a smile, holding three jade boxes about a square foot each.

"Zhēng Daoist Friend, thank you for waiting!"

Wen Yuanhao placed the jade boxes on the table and said seriously, "These are the three Spiritual Objects you just selected for your offer. True Monarch Wu Wei personally inspected them; their condition is perfect, with absolutely no hidden issues. Daoist friend can rest assured about the transaction."

Shen Xuan nodded, opened each jade box, and meticulously scanned inside with his Divine Sense.

The objects inside were brimming with Spiritual Qi and full of original energy, definitely Tier Three Upper Grade, with good appearance.

"Not bad, the goods are correct."

Shen Xuan closed the box lids, speaking in a satisfied tone.

"Congratulations Zhēng Daoist Friend for finding the desired items."

Wen Yuanhao laughed heartily, "Which of these three treasures will Daoist Friend finally choose to settle the transaction?"

Shen Xuan looked up at Wen Yuanhao, smiling slightly, "I will take them all."

"All?"

Wen Yuanhao’s smile froze, eyes flashed with astonishment, and then reminded, "Zhēng Daoist Friend, each offer you selected specifically required exchanging six high-quality Golden Transformation Pills."

"I know."

Shen Xuan’s expression remained unchanged, as he lightly flicked his sleeve.

On the table, two identical medicine bottles appeared out of thin air.

"Shopkeeper Wen, kindly take these two bottles to True Monarch for appraisal. If quality and quantity are correct, then these three..."

His gaze swept across the three jade boxes, smiling without speaking.

Wen Yuanhao suppressed the surge of shock in his heart.

Taking out eighteen high-quality Golden Transformation Pills in one go for a transaction, Zhēng Weicheng Pill Master’s ability far exceeded his imagination.

"Very well! Zhēng Daoist Friend, please wait. I will deal with it right away and return quickly!"

Saying that, Wen Yuanhao deftly collected the three jade boxes and carefully picked up the two new medicine bottles on the table, cupped his hands to Shen Xuan, and hurriedly turned to leave.

The box returned to silence.

Shen Xuan calmly sat back in the chair, closed his eyes for a moment of peace, waiting quietly for good news.

Half an incense stick’s time later, Wen Yuanhao returned.

This time, his face was overflowing with a warm smile of closeness.

He placed the three jade boxes in front of Shen Xuan again.

"Zhēng Daoist Friend, the transaction is complete!"

Wen Yuanhao congratulated, "True Monarch Wu Wei personally authenticated, everything is correct. These three treasures now belong to Zhēng Daoist Friend!"

"Thank you Shopkeeper Wen, thank you True Monarch."

Shen Xuan bowed and collected the three jade boxes.

Transaction complete, according to the rules, a commission must be paid.

Shen Xuan pondered briefly, then took out a small jade bottle containing two high-quality Golden Transformation Pills and handed it to Wen Yuanhao.

"This transaction involves eighteen pills, with a required commission of ten percent, equating to one pill plus eight percent. I ask Shopkeeper Wen to pay the commission for me. The small difference is for Shopkeeper Wen to enjoy some tea."

Wen Yuanhao took the small jade bottle, probed with Divine Sense, and wore a face of delight.

"Zhēng Daoist Friend, thank you!"

Wen Yuanhao’s smile was beaming.

"This kind of small matter is on me! I will definitely handle it perfectly for Daoist Friend! If Daoist Friend has any needs in the future, just come find me, and I will surely serve wholeheartedly!"

"Hmm. My identity?"

"Zhēng Daoist Friend, rest assured! Besides True Monarch Wu Wei and myself, no one else knows Daoist Friend’s identity."

Wen Yuanhao assured, patting his chest.

"That’s good."

Shen Xuan nodded slightly, "In the future, Zhēng Daoist Friend will have many dealings to collaborate with Shopkeeper Wen."

Upon hearing this, Wen Yuanhao could hardly contain his delight.

This also means that he holds a long-term financial vein.

...

"The next auction item is the qualification to enter the Yang Desert Secret Realm, totaling eighteen slots!"

On the auction stage, True Master Puyang announced loudly, "The Yang Desert Secret Realm is one of the nine major Secret Realms controlled by our Myriad Phenomena Daoist Palace, opening every one hundred years. It will open in three years. In this Secret Realm, countless Heavenly and Earthly Treasures, rare Spirit Medicine, uncommon mineral treasures, and even various Nascent Soul Formation Spiritual Objects have appeared multiple times!"

Upon hearing this, the boxes on the third and fourth floors fell silent instantly.

"Anyone interested can submit their intention through the box token."

True Master Puyang looked around the box area and said seriously, "Final qualification requires personal review by True Monarch Wu Wei and signing a Spirit Contract. Details have been sent to each token, please check yourself."

Inside the box, Shen Xuan immersed his mind into the token, lines of golden small text emerged before him.

Bidding for [Yang Desert Secret Realm Qualification] requirements: First, True Pill Middle Stage, Golden Core Early Stage or above. Second, disclose true identity and Realm, verified by True Monarch Wu Wei. Third, pay five million Spirit Stones as deposit and sign a Divine Soul Spirit Contract. Fourth, inside the Secret Realm, life and death is one’s own responsibility, unrelated to Myriad Phenomena Daoist Palace. Fifth, half of the gains from the Secret Realm are to be paid to Myriad Phenomena Daoist Palace.

If those passing review exceed the number of slots, then Spirit Stone bidding will occur, with the highest price winning.

Shen Xuan quickly scanned through, his heart unshaken.

The conditions are too stringent.

Especially the last one, giving up half.

Risking life and death, but working for Myriad Phenomena Daoist Palace.

It can be imagined, even if one luckily obtains Nascent Soul Formation Spiritual Objects and other High Tier Spiritual Objects, they would be cheaply acquired by Myriad Phenomena Daoist Palace.
