Chapter 418 - A Trade

Chapter 418: Chapter 418: A Trade On the eleventh floor of the lightning tower, the Myriad Treasure Pavilion was well-deserved its reputation as a supreme force.
The pavilion lord, Lei Shiyi, was a Void Inquiry Stage expert and he also had five Void Glimpse Stage subordinates. With so many experts in his force, no one had ever dared to enter the Myriad Treasure Pavilion without permission.
The lightning lord of the eleventh floor, Zhu Feng, came depending on the influence of the King Ying Long. Thus, there was certainly no one who dared to stop him.
However, how did Ning Fan who was just a Half-Step Void Refinement Realm cultivator get past the heavy lines of defense of the Myriad Treasure Pavilion and invade the great hall?!
Chu Nanfeng, Mo Feiyun and the other three Void Glimpse Stage experts stood up in surprise and their eyes flashed with cold light.
They recognized Ning Fan. He was the person whom King Ying Long had sent out all his military strength to pursue. He was the person who slaughtered everyone on the first ten floors of the lightning tower on his own. He was a ferocious and ruthless devil.
Ning Fan’s baleful qi subsided as soon as it appeared. It made the five experts be filled with confusion, thinking that what he had felt earlier was just an illusion,
Was it just an illusion? Could that frightening baleful qi be just an illusion?

This young man is just at the Half-Step Void Refinement Realm. It’s certainly impossible for him to kill thirteen Void Refinement Realm beings with his own hands. Yes. That must be it. He is rumored to have three Void Refinement Realm puppets. The baleful qi that we sensed from him must belonged to the spiritual puppets in his hands!


After all, he is still a Divine Transformation Realm cultivator! As long as we don’t give him enough time to summon his spiritual puppets, there’s nothing to fear about him!

When they thought like this, the five experts felt much calmer than before. Because of their own assumption, they could not help but slightly underestimate Ning Fan.
They did not know Ning Fan’s intention of coming to the Myriad Treasure Pavilion. However, judging from his words, it seemed like he had come to trade with Lei Shiyi.
If that’s the case, this man is not considered to be an enemy to us…
With the pavilion lord around, no matter Ning Fan was their enemy or friend, it would not need them deal with him.

Oh? I have just gathered some primordial lightning. Before I have the time to contact Little Friend with the Thunder Sound Jade, you have already come to my Myriad Treasure Pavilion. You’re really a rare customer.

Lei Shiyi put down his golden abacus and gave Ning Fan a deep and meaningful look. Then, his lips parted and formed into a grin.

Little Friend really has a lot of techniques reserved up your sleeves. You can actually get into my Myriad Treasure Pavilion without making any sound. I’m truly impressed!

Please pardon me for my lack of manners.

Ning Fan smiled faintly. He did not talk much about his Heaven Deceiving Cloak. Then, he sat down on his own on a seat which was near to one corner of the hall.
Seeing Lei Shiyi had a friendly relation whip Ning Fan, Chu Nanfeng and the other Void Glimpse Stage experts felt even more composed than before. They then returned to their respective seats.
It seemed that Ning Fan would not harbor any other plots against the Myriad Treasure Pavilion as he had just come to purchase the primordial lightning.
The doubt which had been bothering them had finally gotten its answer.
So it turns out that the reason why Lei Shiyi hurriedly returned to the eleventh floor and spend a great effort to acquire primordial lightning was just to sell all of them to Ning Fan?
Strange. It’s strange.
No matter what, Ning Fan was just a Half-Step Void Refinement Realm cultivator. How did a cultivator with such a lowly cultivation base make Lei Shiyi treat him with politeness? Moreover, how did he manage to get away from the heavy pursuits from King Ying Long?
This young man is nothing more than a Half-Step Void Refinement Realm cultivator. Even though he possesses three Void Glimpse Stage spiritual puppets, he still has no chance of winning at all in the face of a Void Inquiry Stage expert and five Void Glimpse Stage experts.
Why is he so calm? Isn’t he scared to sit down alone in the Myriad Treasure Pavilion which is an extremely dangerous place to him?

All of you seems to be very interested in me, don’t you?
Ning Fan had sensed the faintly discernible spirit sense from the five individuals who were studying him from time to time. He released a bit of his sword sense and then repelled all of their spirit sense. After that, he talked with a faint smile on his face.
Hiss
The expressions of the five Void Glimpse Stage experts changed.
The means that Ning Fan had used to repel their spirit sense was none other than a sword sense. Besides, the strength of his spirit sense was completely not any weaker than an expert of the Void Glimpse Stage!

Calm down, everyone. Little Friend Zhou is my customer!
Lei Shiyi grumpily stared at his five subordinates.
Even Lei Shiyi himself found that Ning Fan’s qi was erratic, making him unable to see through the latter. If his mere five subordinates were able to discover any details about Ning Fan, that would really be preposterous.

My subordinates aren’t really sensible. I apologize on their behalf. Is Little Friend coming to my place this time to buy primordial lightning? As a matter of fact, I have already prepared ten thousand traces of primordial lightning. I wonder Little Friend has brought enough money with you?

Lei Shiyi revealed a faint smile to Ning Fan again. While he was asking Ning Fan, he picked his nose and then sniffed the air gently.
As soon as he did that, his eyes immediately burnt with excitement.

So many lightning jades?! It seems like the rumor about Little Friend wiping out the ten floors of the lightning tower is most probably true!


Ten thousand traces of primordial lightning?

Ning Fan’s expression remained unchanged and he felt slightly astonished inwardly. His lightning armor needed at least another 300 traces of primordial lightning to complete the next minor advancement.
Even though the reason he had come to the Myriad Treasure Pavilion was to buy primordial lightning, he did not expect that Lei Shiyi would have so many primordial lightning in his hands.
Ten thousand trace of primordial lightning were completely enough for his lightning armor to break through to the second level of the golden grade. Moreover, there was a chance that it could even advance to the third level!
Each trace of primordial lightning represented the life of a Divine Transformation Realm undead spirit.
If Ning Fan had to gather ten thousand traces of primordial lightning on his own, he would definitely need to slaughter ten thousand Divine Transformation Realm undead spirits. In other words, it would only be possible for him to gather such a massive amount of primordial lightning by at least killing all the way up to the fifty or even sixty floors of the lightning tower. Obviously, that was unrealistic.
Inwardly, Ning Fan thought to himself.
If Lei Shiyi really has ten thousand traces of primordial lightning, these primordial lightning are certainly not obtained from killing the Divine Transformation Realm undead spirits. They are probably left by the Divine Transformation Realm undead spirits that died in the lightning tower in the past.

Precisely! I have gathered ten thousand traces of primordial lightning. Hehe. According to the price of one lightning jade for thirty primordial lightning and a discount for Little Friend… Hehe… Bottom price, three hundred pieces of silver jades. What do you think?
Lei Shiyi rubbed his hands excitedly.

Three hundred silver jades?!
The five Void Glimpse Stage experts were shocked. Even though they were experts of the Void Glimpse Stage, each of them only possessed one hundred silver jades.
The lightning power contained in three hundred silver jades was nearly equivalent to the total amount of wealth of three Void Glimpse Stage experts.
They could not believe that Ning Fan who was just at the Half-Step Void Refinement Realm would possess so many lightning jades.
Besides, they found it even more difficult to believe that Ning Fan would buy a pile of useless primordial lightning at such an exorbitant price.
However, they would never know that the primordial lightning which were useless to undead spirits were excellent nourishment to Ning Fan for upgrading his lightning armor.

It’s a deal.

Ning Fan uttered indifferently. In just a brief moment, such a trade which involved a huge sum of money was ended.
The final decision was made!
Lei Shiyi took out a few hundred jade boxes where all the traces of primordial lightning were sealed in and handed over to Ning Fan. Then, the latter paid him three hundred silver jades. The whole process of trading was swift and direct!
Chu Nanfeng and the others were left dazed and speechless. Ning Fan actually did not even bargain for a lower price in such a huge dealing. What a courageous man!
Unconsciously, the contempt they had against Ning Fan diminished a little. At least, they were aware that they did not have such courage to do so.
Ning Fan kept the primordial lightning. Once he leaves the Myriad Treasure Pavilion, he would then devour all of them and upgrade his lightning armor.
Lei Shiyi kept the three hundred silver jades. His heart was filled with elation. Once he devours all of these silver jades, his magic power could increase a lot again.
This dealing was of everyone’s delight and satisfaction.

I wonder whether or not Fellow Daoist Lei still have any other good items. It’s rare that I came to Myriad Treasure Pavilion myself this time. I still have some spare money with me and I intend to buy some more excellent items.

Ning Fan still had 10 golden jades and 800 silver jades with him. These lightning jades were useless to him. Thus, he naturally was extremely willing to exchange for some treasures from Lei Shiyi’s hands.
As soon as Lei Shiyi heard his words, he immediately clapped his hands and laughed loudly, as if a harlot who had met her adulterer. Without hesitation, he replied Ning Fan.

Little Friend, don’t worry! My Myriad Treasure Pavilion lacks of everything except for treasures. I assure Little Friend that you certainly will return with satisfaction!

He could smell that there were still a large number of lightning jades with Ning Fan.
He was extremely willing to earn all of those lightning jades away from him.
Suddenly, his eyes flashed brightly, as if he had thought of something.
I wonder if this Zhou Ming will want the Immortal Emperor’s Lightning Bones or not… To undead spirits like us, that item is also an item of no use. However, to a minority of undead spirits who cultivated unique body refinement techniques, it’s a supreme treasure…
This item is useless to me but it’s useful to certain undead spirits. However, those people could not afford to buy this item. Now, that King Ying Long has set his eyes upon it but he is reluctant to spend a single jade to buy it… If it’s a normal business, I, of course, will have sold it to him. However, he wants to seize it from me with force. Humph! Since the day I began doing business, I have never done a loss-making dealing. How can I just give the lightning bones to him for free?!

This Zhou Ming still has 800 silver jades and 10 golden jades… What if I directly sell the lightning bones to him, just as the saying goes: either give up, or go through to the end. There are two benefits in doing so. Firstly, I can shirt my trouble to him. King Ying Long will no longer have any reason to disturb me. Secondly, hehe… I can get all the lightning jades that Zhou Ming has! With so many lightning jades, even if I can’t break through to the Late Void Refinement Realm after refining them into magic power, I will at least become one of the top experts among the Mid Void Refinement Realm experts!
The only thing I have to worry about is whether this Zhou Ming will buy this item…
Lei Shiyi’s eyes rotated from side to side. In terms of business, he quite admired Ning Fan who had a fair attitude while trading.
