At eighty, the Holy Sect's enchanting woman aided in achieving longevity.

On the edge of the Great Wilderness, at the Crescent City branch of the Wanbao Chamber of Commerce.

Behind the counter stood a gray-clad shop assistant who looked to be over thirty. He lazily raised his eyelids.

He glanced at Chen Changsheng, who was dressed in a black robe, with an overly youthful face but a cold expression.

Even with the faint scent of blood emanating from Chen Changsheng, the shop assistant's eyes remained unmoved, and he spoke dryly:

"Buy or sell?"

Chen Changsheng was too lazy to waste words with him. He raised his right hand slightly, accompanied by three crisp sounds.

Three crimson spirit stones, with faint fiery threads flowing across their surfaces, were slammed directly onto the counter.

His voice was cold:

"Three top-grade Fire Source Spirit Stones, name your price."

These three spirit stones were pure yang fire source crystals that he casually mined and refined with his own yang energy when he killed a second-tier fire demon beast deep in the wilderness.

"Fire Source Spirit Stone?"

The shop assistant's stiff face finally twitched.

He casually picked up one of them, but when his fingertips touched the pure, scorching energy on the crystal's surface, his expression changed drastically, and he cried out in alarm:

"This...this quality! Absolutely flawless, not a single trace of its original essence was lost during mining? This is a top-grade Fire Source Spirit Stone!"

In the Great Wilderness, cultivators practicing fire-attribute techniques are as numerous as hairs on a cow.

However, most of the fire crystals that are commonly circulated are rough and contain a lot of fire poison. A purity of 60% to 70% is considered top-grade.

The three gems before us were as clear and translucent as rubies, and the fire elemental energy within them was frighteningly pure, making them top-quality gems that were almost one in ten thousand!

What made the shop assistants even more horrified was that the three stones were of exactly the same quality, as if they had been peeled off from the same monster.

He could easily imagine that if this thing were presented to the fire cultivators of those great immortal cultivation clans, they would fight tooth and nail over it.

Name your price.

Chen Changsheng repeated it coldly, expressionless.

The shop assistant shuddered and nodded repeatedly, hurriedly and clumsily pulling out a fine jade box.

He carefully put the three spirit stones away, afraid that even a trace of their spiritual energy would escape.

When he looked at Chen Changsheng again, his eyes were filled with awe.

The fact that he can casually produce three top-grade fire crystals, and that he has such an arrogant demeanor, shows that he is definitely a formidable character who is not to be trifled with.

The shop assistant swallowed hard and cautiously held up three fingers:

"My esteemed master, these three Fire Source Spirit Stones are the finest of the finest. As for the price... I'll offer you one thousand low-grade spirit stones per stone, for a total of three thousand spirit stones. How about the deal?"

"..."

Chen Changsheng remained silent for a moment, without saying a word.

Seeing that Chen Changsheng remained silent, the shop assistant felt uneasy and secretly cursed himself for being too conservative with his offer.

They've even prepared to raise prices at any time.

However, he never expected that Chen Changsheng's silence at this moment was entirely due to being somewhat stunned by this number.

Three thousand low-grade spirit stones!

This sudden windfall made him an unexpected millionaire!

Having spent eighty years in the Hehuan Sect, he received only a few spirit stones as his monthly stipend due to his low aptitude.

Three thousand spirit stones—that's a fortune that an ordinary Qi Refining cultivator would need to save for most of their life!

He thought his casually crafted gadgets would sell for at most a few dozen spirit stones, but the other party asked for three thousand.

It's not entirely Chen Changsheng's fault, after all, he had been forced by Mu Qing'er to engage in crazy, cross-level combat for the past month.

His vision had already been elevated, but he underestimated the terrifying allure of top-grade pure yang items to ordinary fire cultivators.

"Immortal Master, if you are not satisfied with this amount of spirit stones, we can discuss it further..."

Seeing that Chen Changsheng still had a cold face, the shop assistant became impatient and wanted to back down.

"make a deal."

Chen Changsheng interrupted the other person by uttering two words in a hoarse voice.

The shop assistant was overjoyed and quickly completed the transaction. A moment later, he respectfully handed over a crystal card that shimmered with a faint spiritual light.

"This is your spirit stone card, containing three thousand low-grade spirit stones, not a penny less. Please keep it safe, Immortal Master. If you ever receive such a treasure again, please be sure to patronize my shop."

Chen Changsheng calmly accepted the crystal card and put it away, but his heart was pounding wildly.

Three thousand spirit stones! This huge sum of money is enough for him to squander on his cultivation for a long time to come.

After putting the crystal card into his pocket, Chen Changsheng did not move immediately.

He stood there, slammed his right hand on the counter again, and said in that unchanging, cold tone:

"I'll show you something else. Name your price."
