Volume 1 Chapter 554 Exchange
Seeing Kong Yun directly ask for more Golden Wind Jade Dew, Seventh Mother only needed a few more buckets.
"How many barrels? Do you want me to give you a few barrels of divine wine that can directly break through to the Undying Immortal Realm?" Seventh Mother crossed her waist, her eyes filled with anger. Kong Yun felt that if he answered any questions, he would be pulled out by Seventh Mother to dismember the corpse.
"I don"t dare, I don"t have a few barrels. I can just put on a few wine jugs."
Seventh Mother still underestimated Kong Yun"s shamelessness. Although it sounded a lot less, this Golden Wind Jade Dew was a divine wine that increased her comprehension of Laws. It took her five years to obtain almost two jugs of ingredients. Otherwise, the banquet would not have to be held once every five years.
""A few pots? I"ll give you one at most. The 36 cups of Golden Wind Jade Dew at the banquet were mixed with one cup of original juice. You just need to use the diluted juice of Fu Ze"s own faction. There"s no need to use the original juice at all. This is a requirement. Otherwise, too many people with different temperaments will lose their consciousness and the world will be in chaos."
Kong Yun did not expect that Seventh Mother would really agree to give him a pot of Golden Wind Jade Dew"s original juice. This Golden Wind Jade Dew"s original juice was even more precious than the Divine Fruit rewarded by the Universe City Grand Compet.i.tion. To be able to obtain a pot of it now was a complete surprise.
"Thank you for your gift, Seventh Mother. Remember what Seventh Mother taught you. If you need any help in the future, don"t disobey me."
Kong Yun had already confirmed that Seventh Mother knew that the person at the Great Perfection of the Universe was him. These things were like cooperating with the Shi Clan. They were all investments in him. Originally, he wasn"t prepared to accept the cooperation of other forces, but the Golden Wind Jade Dew that Seventh Mother had given him was really hard to refuse.
With the investment of the Shi Clan and Seventh Mother, Kong Yun decided not to accept the cooperation of other forces. The more he gained, the more he would pay. Therefore, as long as he had enough resources, too much investment in himself would become a drag.
The most important thing was that Seventh Mother had asked him to return the same favor as the Shi Clan did. They had all done something after he broke through to the Undying Immortal Realm. Kong Yun couldn"t help but wonder if the requirements of the two of them were similar. One sheep was to be chased, and the other two sheep were to be chased. That was why he agreed.
Qi Niang personally went to the inner storeroom to retrieve a pot of Golden Wind Jade Dew Original Paste. Just this wine jug was a rare treasure. It seemed that the materials needed to brew the Golden Wind Jade Dew Divine Wine were not cheap. Even the wine barrels were wooden barrels made from ethylwood oak. The value of this kind of wood was that it would never rot, and it could guarantee the effectiveness of the materials.
Kong Yun had seen boxes made from the wood of the Eastwood Oak in the Shunjin Trading Firm, but there weren"t many Eastwood Oak Wood in the Shunjin Trading Firm.
Shi Xueren smiled and brought the wine jug over. She turned around and had a grieved expression, "Brother, you have to give me two cups. Perhaps Father and Uncle Cai can make a breakthrough again."
"Your father and your Uncle Cai have already drank the essence of my Golden Wind Jade Dew. There"s no need to give it to him anymore. This little girl is quite filial."
Shi Xueren lowered her head in embarra.s.sment. This was originally given to Big Brother Kong by Seventh Mother, but in the end, she wanted to cut off the beard and s.n.a.t.c.h away two cups of wine.
"Big Brother Kong, I"m sorry."
"Silly girl, what nonsense are you saying? Call me big brother. What are these things?"
Hearing Kong Yun"s forgiveness, Shi Xueren immediately jumped up and down again.
"Seventh Mother, when did my father drink your Golden Wind Jade Dew? Why haven"t I ever heard of it from my father?"
Although she already knew that Seventh Mother"s age was probably her grandmother"s, she had never heard of anything related to Seventh Mother. Moreover, the reason why she and Kong Yun could drink the original juice was a special reason. Since her father and Uncle Cai could drink the original juice, they should be very close to Seventh Mother. How could they never mention the matter of Seventh Mother?
"Then you haven"t been born yet. If you want to know, ask your father." Seventh Mother returned to her lazy appearance.
Kong Yun and Shi Xueren did not say anything else. After bidding farewell to Qi Niang, they left the Spring Pavilion. Today"s trip was definitely worth it.
As for Shi Xueren, she was thinking of going to Shunjin Trading Firm to gossip about Uncle Cai"s father and Seventh Mother. She thought that father never mentioned Seventh Mother, it must be some kind of story.
Kong Yun returned to his residence. After breaking through his barrier of consciousness, he had to give it a good try. When he switched to the metal heart, the metal laws would definitely advance by leaps and bounds.
"Young Master Kong, this is bad!"
When he opened the door, he saw Hai Zi running over hurriedly. He stood at the door panting and couldn"t even say a word.
Kong Yun activated the life force in the green metal to help Hai Zi recover his strength. Otherwise, he would have to breathe for a long time. It would be bad if he was delayed because something big must have happened to him.
"Young master, Young Master Wu Cheng brought a divine object that contained a trace of the power of Laws to the market to exchange for that old man"s metal heart!"
"d.a.m.n it!"
Originally, he didn"t want to get help from the trading house because he didn"t want to owe the Shi Clan too much. That was why he had to partic.i.p.ate in the Universe City Tournament, take down the Divine Fruit and exchange it with the old man for a metal heart.
That old man only wanted to be called a sage, but he didn"t have any requirements for the types of Laws. Now that Shi Wucheng was directly exchanging a divine object that contained a trace of the power of Laws with the old man, that old man would definitely agree to the exchange!
The Metal Heart was a must for Kong Yun. Previously, he had always tolerated Shi Wu Cheng"s actions against him because of the friendship of the Shi Clan. However, he didn"t expect that Shi Wu Cheng would become even more fierce. He would have to challenge his bottom line one time at a time.
"Let"s go. I"d like to see how he trades for the Metal Heart."
Hai Zi followed Kong Yun to the market. Shi Wu Cheng had just finished picking up the divine object when he ran over to notify Kong Yun. There must be time.
After arriving at the market, he paid for the tickets for the two of them and walked deeper into the market along the way he came last time. The old man"s stall was at the innermost part of the market.
Kong Yun walked in slowly. The transaction took time, and the old man also needed to verify the authenticity of the goods. Therefore, Shi Wu Cheng could not complete the transaction so quickly. As long as the transaction was not completed, he would have the opportunity to intervene.
Until he had no other choice, he would not go to the head of the Shi Clan.
When they arrived at the old man"s stall, they happened to see Shi Wucheng pa.s.s the shining divine object in his hand to the old man for examination. This was a coincidence.
"I took a fancy to this first."
Shi Wu Cheng saw that Kong Yun was here, and Hai Zi was standing beside him. He knew that Hai Zi was the one who went to inform Kong Yun, and his disgust for Hai Zi flashed in his heart.
Anyway, after buying the Metal Heart, he also wanted to look for Kong Yun to show him the feeling that the thing he was thinking about was in someone else"s hands. It just so happened that Kong Yun had delivered it to him.
At the Seventh Mother"s banquet, he challenged Kong Yun, but Kong Yun did not dare to answer. It could be seen that Kong Yun"s strength was definitely average. Otherwise, there would be no reason why heavenly prodigies did not cherish their reputation. As long as other heavenly prodigies were challenged, they would all stand up to him, unlike Kong Yun who had thick skin and hid behind Shi Xueren.
Therefore, Shi Wu Cheng was looking at the defeated general"s expression with a complacent expression.
"So what if you took a fancy to it first? Do you have anything to exchange with the old man now?"
The rules of the bazaar were that whoever traded first would own the item, and there was never a reason why whoever favored the item first would be the one to do so.
It was precisely because of this that he realized that he had picked up something from the store and rushed to the bazaar. As the young master of the Shi Clan, he still had the authority to pick up something in the store of his own store.
As long as the metal heart was exchanged and sold, then the value of the divine object would be filled with the divine bead, and the interests of the trading company would not be harmed at all.
At present, the store only had this divine object that could help people comprehend a trace of the power of Laws. Kong Yun was useless even if he was looking for Uncle Cai. It would take a long time for the store to find more goods. At that time, he would have no idea where the Metal Heart would be sold to.
"Who said I don"t have anything to exchange? Old sir, could you excuse me for a moment?"
Seeing that Kong Yun"s expression wasn"t fake, the old man put away the metal heart on the stall and followed Kong Yun to the side to discuss.
Shi Wucheng"s expression turned slightly bad. Kong Yun was just an outsider. How could the resources he grasped compare to the Shunjin Trading Firm? He definitely couldn"t have a divine object that could be called a sage. Otherwise, he would have exchanged it with this old man long ago.
Kong Yun walked to the side and directly set up a formation to hide the scene. His voice could not penetrate the formation, so it was extremely convenient for him to discuss matters. After returning from the Wanlai Restaurant, he asked Uncle Cai to help him find such a secret art book and learn it.
"Old sir, I know that person took a divine object that can help you call a sage in exchange for a metal heart, but I don"t know if the attributes of this divine object are consistent with your abilities."
The old man had a good impression of Kong Yun. Every time Shi Wucheng appeared, he would look down on everyone and show no respect to himself. If he could sell the Metal Heart to Kong Yun, then of course it would be good. It was just that he needed the strength to be called a Sage too much!
""To tell you the truth, I don"t care if my abilities are the same as mine anymore. I just want to master a trace of the power of Laws to be called a sage. I can feel that I have practiced to the end. If I don"t rely on such a divine object, I might not be able to comprehend the Laws for the rest of my life."
"What if I can help you improve your affinity with the Laws and allow you to comprehend the Laws by yourself?" Kong Yun"s interspatial ring contained a pot of Golden Wind Jade Dew in a second wood wine jug. There was no need to wait any longer.
"Is what Young Master said true? Can I break through by myself, old man?" If he could break through by himself, of course the old man would be willing. However, now that he was cultivating, he could no longer feel the power of the Laws floating in s.p.a.ce. What else could he talk about comprehending?
Now that the kind young man in front of him said that he could help him increase his affinity with the Laws and help him break through, how could he not be tempted?
This meant that the ceiling of his path of cultivation had increased by another level. As long as he could comprehend the power of the Laws, he could enter the Divine Dao. The limit of his cultivation had changed from an ordinary cosmic power to a great perfection of the Laws.
"Of course it"s true. Drink it and you"ll understand very quickly. But after verifying the effects, if you don"t trade the Metal Heart to me, you"ll know what will happen."
