Chapter 1161: Chapter 1161
"No problem, no problem, my old self will send you a thousand beauties, allowing you to indulge every night and practice your Big and Small Ruyi Skill every day," Hua Qing said.
"..." Li Yi didn’t want to bother with this old man.
After finalizing the deal, he quickly acquired a Mutton Fat Jade Bottle, containing ten pounds of Nine Heavens Divine Water.
This was an enormous fortune.
"I need the Reversed Scale Armor, Heavenly Dragon Fighting Heaven Skill, and Five-Colored Divine Light Technique. All these together come to one hundred and twenty thousand, but I’ll settle the bill with this," Li Yi, feeling confident after receiving a sum of money, started to spend lavishly.
As he spoke, he placed the Mutton Fat Jade Bottle on the crystal table in front of him.
The beautiful Fish Demon maintained her expression, hurriedly bowed, and said, "I apologize, sir. This matter is beyond my authority; I must fetch someone in charge."
Ten pounds of Nine Heavens Divine Water converts to about two million in Nine Heavens Jade Dew, a significant deal. For origınal chapters go to novel•fire.net
"Quickly," Li Yi waved his hand and said.
After the beautiful Fish Demon left, he asked, "Will flaunting my wealth bring about danger?"
"There might be danger in other places, but not in the Dragon Palace Treasure Pavilion. Ten pounds of Nine Heavens Jade Dew isn’t enough to target you, at most, you are just a big customer," Hua Qing said.
"That’s good to hear," Li Yi relaxed upon hearing that.
A short old man leaned on a coral stick, swaying as he walked over. Although his movements were slow, his speed was fast, crossing the room in just a few steps and entering the quiet chamber.
"A Heavenly General level demon," Li Yi sensed that the power of the other was not simple.
"Old me, one of the stewards of the Dragon Palace Treasure Pavilion, you can call me Elder Xuan Gui," the short old man smiled, squinting his eyes.
Li Yi nodded slightly, "I am Taiyi, here at the Dragon Palace Treasure Pavilion seeking treasures. That maid earlier couldn’t make decisions; I’m hoping Elder Xuan Gui can bring me what I desire."
"Hehe, Reversed Scale Armor, True Dragon Heaven-Fighting Technique, Five-Colored Divine Light Technique, indeed all great items, especially the latter one, it’s a Heavenly Emperor level magic, within the Sunset Country, except for the Dragon Palace Treasure Pavilion, no place is willing to put it up for sale," Elder Xuan Gui stroked his beard and smiled, "Friend, you came to the right place."
"Although magic doesn’t have a cost, since ancient times, magic cannot be lightly passed on, so charging a higher fee is also reasonable. Since you’re interested in buying, I believe there are no objections to the price. If you regret now is the time, after all, some magic bought might not be learned, and Dragon Palace Treasure Pavilion doesn’t offer refunds."
Li Yi said, "You are willing to sell, I am willing to buy, nothing to regret. Just bring it over."
"Straightforward friend," Elder Xuan Gui at this moment took out a brocade pouch from his sleeve.
Clearly, this was a space treasure,
Soon, he took out two Treasure Beads, with Primordial Spirit Power sealed inside containing spells, along with a Reversed Scale Armor, more expensive than other Heavenly King Soldiers, but its defensive power was indisputable, crafted from True Dragon Reversed Scales.
Only the Dragon Palace Treasure Pavilion has such armor, you can’t buy it elsewhere.
"Three treasures, please have a look, and if you’re settling the bill with Nine Heavens Divine Water, I’ll only charge six pounds," Elder Xuan Gui said.
Li Yi nodded, "This price is acceptable."
Though one hundred thousand Nine Heavens Jade Dew can only refine a pound of Nine Heavens Divine Water, because it requires a Heavenly Emperor level battle power to act, along with the loss in refining, the value of Nine Heavens Divine Water is higher, with an added premium.
And this premium fluctuates in different regions and places within the Heavenly Realm.
In the Dragon Palace Treasure Pavilion, paying with Nine Heavens Divine Water is equivalent to a fifty percent discount for Li Yi.
Seeing Li Yi pay so readily, Elder Xuan Gui added, "I heard earlier from maid Jin Ling that you’re planning to go to the Third Layer Heaven? It’s a long journey, I wonder if you are interested in buying some specialties to take back?"
"What kind of specialties do you have here?" Li Yi collected the three treasures and asked again.
Elder Xuan Gui laughed, "Dragon Girls, are you interested?"
"Dragon Girls?" Li Yi’s expression shifted, "Can you even sell such things?"
Elder Xuan Gui waved his hand, and countless scenes appeared, revealing exceptionally beautiful women, each adorned with dragon horns, vertical pupils, and various forms.
"In the Sea of Gui Xu, lacking nothing except the Dragon Clan. But these Dragon Girls are all mixed-blood, not pure-blood True Dragons. If you’re interested in pure-blood Dragon Girls, the price will naturally be higher," Elder Xuan Gui said.
Li Yi initially wanted to refuse, but then reconsidered. If he could purchase a Dragon Girl, it could help him learn more about Heavenly Realm matters. Hua Qing, though knowledgeable, often slept and frequently came up with bad ideas.
"How powerful are these Dragon Girls?" he asked.
"If you want a Dragon Girl with powerful strength, the price will be higher," Elder Xuan Gui said.
"That’s not a problem," Li Yi said.
Elder Xuan Gui understood, then waved his hand again, changing the scene. The previously extraordinarily beautiful Dragon Girls disappeared, replaced by skilled fighters.
"Heavenly Soldier level Dragon Girls, mixed-blood for ten thousand, pure-blood for thirty thousand, Heavenly General level, much more expensive, mixed-blood Dragon Girls starting at five hundred thousand."
Though only a level difference, it was like the difference between clouds and mud.
Heavenly Soldier level Dragon Girls could be trained, but Heavenly General level was hard to cultivate, as they inherently possessed remarkable cultivation potential, plus their Dragon Girl identity and rarity, so the price multiplied several times.
Selling Dragon Girls is more profitable than selling Heavenly General Soldiers.
Li Yi’s gaze swept over and saw many of these powerful Dragon Girls wearing shackles, and several seemed to have suffered through bloody battles, covered in wounds.
"No need to mind, within the True Dragon Clan, there are various Dragon Kings and Dragon Emperors, they often fight among each other. These Dragon Girls were captured as prisoners of war and sold to the Dragon Palace Treasure Pavilion," Elder Xuan Gui explained.
"It seems even the True Dragon Clan is not necessarily united," Li Yi thought to himself.
"If I want to buy a Heavenly General level Dragon Girl, I need to make sure I can overpower her. Otherwise, buying her would be useless, as she might not submit and could even turn against me."
He considered the risks.
It’s not a matter of price, but risk consideration.
Of course, the Dragon Palace Treasure Pavilion must have methods to restrain the Dragon Girls, but if a Dragon Girl is fierce enough to try and kill him even at the cost of her life, then it would be wasted money.
However, having a Heavenly General level Dragon Girl would indeed be of great assistance, as traveling in the Heavenly Realm with a partner would be much safer.
After a brief consideration, his eyes swept over the images before him, then pointed to one Dragon Girl and said, "I’ll take her."
Elder Xuan Gui looked over; it was a Heavenly General level Dragon Girl, though not a pure-blood True Dragon but mixed-blood, priced at sixty thousand, requiring three pounds of Nine Heavens Divine Water if converted.
"And a set of Heavenly General level armor, I’ll settle with Nine Heavens Divine Water."
"Generous of you, sir, old me admires such." Elder Xuan Gui replied with a smile.
Evidently, the Heavenly General level armor was for the Dragon Girl, quite a good treatment, and the mixed-blood Dragon Girl was lucky. Many Dragon Girls are bought not for battle but for breeding, Dragon Children, Dragon Grandchildren.
The power of a True Dragon is coveted by all races in the Heavenly Realm.
"I also need to buy some Elixirs. How about you recommend a few?" Li Yi planned to use up the remaining pound of Nine Heavens Divine Water.
After all, he was going to the Third Layer Heaven, a long journey, unpredictable events might occur, he had to be well prepared.
Elder Xuan Gui’s smile grew broader, promptly recommending some expensive Elixirs to thoroughly exhaust the last pound of Nine Heavens Divine Water from Li Yi.
Though pricey, some Elixirs were indeed good, just not cost-effective.
But Li Yi wasn’t concerned about cost-effectiveness. After his experience with the Rakshasa Clan’s matters, he felt the Heavenly Realm was full of danger and must maximize his armament.
