Chapter 600: Chapter 410: Closed-door Cultivation!_2
Speaking of which,
with a thought,
[Ding… -15 trillion Ingots!]
As the Ingots were deducted, his Game Backpack gained a thousand Devouring Heaven Fruits.
“Yes, yes, a total of four hundred and seventy-fiveplete Small Thousand Worlds. Please check them, Xuanqing, to see if anything is missing,”
the ck Bird Merchant hurriedly stacked the ck boxes filled with Small Thousand Worlds neatly in the corner.
Upon hearing this,
Xuanqing enveloped them with his God Soul and carefully checked to ensure there were no issues before taking out the newly-exchanged Devouring Heaven Fruits.
“One thousand Devouring Heaven Fruits, take them!”
“Alright, thank you, Lord Xuan,”<div>
the ck Bird Merchant said gleefully, pocketing the thousand Devouring Heaven Fruits before bowing slightly and speaking,
“Then I shall not disturb you any longer, Xuanqing. You are busy, so I will take my leave!”
…
After the ck Bird Merchant had left,
he gathered all the neatly stacked ck boxes from the corner into his Game Backpack.
“It seems… coborating with Xuan Wu from the Nine Skies Xuan Bird n was a good decision after all,” Xuanqing remarked.
He hadn’t even used up the five hundred Small Thousand Worlds from thest trade, and here was the second batch already delivered.
As long as this continued, installment payments were nearly no different from a one-time transaction.
“Continue the practice!”
Xuanqing’s eyes were calm.
Seeking a higher realm was not only about strengthening his own power but, more importantly, about the pursuit of a creature’s life metamorphosis.
He flipped over his hand and took out a ck box from the Game Backpack, taking out the Small Thousand Worlds inside.
“Refine!”
He activated the Heaven Devouring Saintly Art.
Xuanqing closed his eyes, as the Heart of Chaos within his body began to function, slowly refining it.
…
Time slowly passed.
As each of the Small Thousand Worlds was refined one by one,
the power contained within Xuanqing’s Heart of Chaos in his body became increasingly formidable; even his entire Physical Body emanated an imposing aura of the World Origin’sw.<div>
Unconsciously,
all nine hundred and fifty Small Thousand Worlds had beenpletely refined by him.
“Hoo~”
“The Heart of Chaos is indeed the energy source driving the Chaos Shell, and now I… am several times stronger than before!”<div>
Xuanqing opened his eyes and felt the state within his body.
At this moment,
within his Chaos Shell, the powerful Heart of Chaos was surrounded by numerous Crystal Balls quietly suspended around it.
Each Crystal Ball was a Small Thousand World.
Although these Small Thousand Worlds did not give birth to creatures, each one contained a strand ofw from the Endless Chaos.
Once the number reached three thousand, the Chaos Rules of these Small Thousand Worlds would interconnect, forming a protective stance around the Heart of Chaos, thereby providing it with an even greater driving force.
“However… it has been a year now, and the Nine Skies Xuan Bird n has not delivered the Small Thousand Worlds as agreed upon.”
“Could there be some problems?”
Xuanqing felt it was a bit strange.
ording to the agreement, a trade should happen every half a year, with one thousand units each time,pleting the entire trade for six point five hundred Devouring Heaven Fruits in the third year.
However,
an entire year had passed since thest trade of four hundred and seventy-five Small Thousand Worlds, and they had still note.
…<div>
Another month passed,
and he still hadn’t seen anyone from the Nine Skies Xuan Bird Business Alliance.
“Forget it, I’ll have to figure out another way,”
Xuanqing shook his head.
If push came to shove, he would have to check the mission hall for simple, fast tasks to earn some Contribution Points and then exchange them at the Treasure Pavilion for Small Thousand Worlds.
In fact,
as the Sovereign of the Northern Gxy Domain, the Ancient God n’s Treasure Pavilion had everything one could imagine, andplete Small Thousand Worlds were nothing unusual.
Unfortunately,
the treasures of the Treasure Pavilion couldn’t be bought with Lower Grade Chaos Crystals; they could only be exchanged for with Contribution Points.
Given the Ancient God n’s status, they naturally didn’t engage inmerce. The use of Contribution Points existed to better motivate their nsmen.
Just at this moment,
hum~
the formation at Pan God Peak was triggered once again.<div>
Xuanqing extended his senses and spotted the figure of the ck Bird Merchant at the Foot of the Mountain.
Momentster,
“Lord Xuan~ I am truly sorry.”
“Originally it was agreed to trade every half a year, but this time there’s been such a dy. I owe you an apology,”
The ck Bird shopkeeper spoke with a hint of helplessness.
However,
Xuanqing sensed a chaotic aura ofws emanating from his body, and upon closer inspection…
Well, I’ll be damned~
The organs inside this little ck bird were nearly all damaged, and although his life wasn’t in immediate danger, his injuries were certainly not light. Without proper care, he probably wouldn’t live much longer.
From this, one could deduce that something major had befallen the Nine Skies Xuan Bird n, otherwise, the ck Bird shopkeeper wouldn’t be in such a state.
“You’re injured?” Xuanqing raised an eyebrow and asked in puzzlement.
“It’s nothing..no big deal, Xuanqing sir, thank you for your concern!”
The ck Bird shopkeeper forced a smile.<div>
Then,
just like thest transaction, he respectfully ced the ck box containing the Small Thousand Worlds neatly in the corner.
“Xuanqing sir, here are five hundred Small Thousand Worlds. The extra twenty-five are for thete apology, and I hope you can excuse my tardiness!”
The ck Bird shopkeeper bowed deeply, his voice full of apology.
“Hmm, that’s thoughtful of you.”
Xuanqing waved his hand, indicating he wasn’t taking it to heart.
But,
“What’s your name?” Xuanqing asked.
“Your servant would like to say, given that I am as ck as ink, just call me Wuhei!”
Wuhei?
Hearing this name,
Xuanqing couldn’t help but chuckle, the little creature’s name was indeed quite unique.
“Wuhei,e here.”
“Ah…? Okay!”
The ck Bird shopkeeper…no, Wuhei the shopkeeper, initially startled, obediently stepped forward and approached Xuanqing.
“Though our mutual dealings have been purely transactional, in light of your repeated efforts to deliver, I will treat your injuries,” Xuanqing said.
With that,
Xuanqing activated his cultivation technique.
In an instant,
Wuhei felt an irresistible suction and his body began to spin uncontrobly.
Just as he began to panic,
Huh?
he felt the chaoticws wreaking havoc within his physical body being stripped away slowly, like unwinding silk from a cocoon.
In just a short time,
Wuhei felt the injuries inside his body heal, and although he was still very weak, at least his condition would no longer worsen.
Immediately following,
he heard Xuanqing’s voice by his ear.
“Here are one thousand Devouring Heaven Fruits, now go back. Tell Xuan Wu to try not to bete next time,” Xuanqing said calmly.
Upon hearing these words,
Wuhei finally came to his senses and, feeling the state of his body, was filled with joy.
“Thank you, Xuanqing sir, many thanks!”
“I will surely deliver your words to Miss Xuan Wu just as you said, and not disturb your cultivation any longer. I take my leave.”
….
…
After Wuhei had departed,
Xuanqing shook his head.
The struggle for resources is unavoidable, even in the Endless Chaos.
It was also fortunate that when he created his game character, he chose the Ancient God n, a dominant force. Otherwise, he would likely have ended up in a simr plight to Wuhei.
“Continue refining,”
Xuanqing muttered softly to himself.
With these five hundred Small Thousand Worlds, he could sustain his practice for some time longer.
All he needed was for the Nine Skies Xuan Bird n to be more reliable. Regarding the next trade, there was no need to worry about dys as long as the delivery went smoothly.
Otherwise,
he would either have to look at tasks from the Ancient God n or travel far torger marketces in distant ces to try his luck.
….
Before long,
half a year had passed.
This day,
Xuanqing was refining a Small Thousand World.
Of the five hundred Small Thousand Worlds delivered by Wuheist time, he still had over a hundred left.
Buzz~ Buzz~
The ripples of the Pan God Peak’s formation echoed, waking Xuanqing from his closed-door cultivation.
“They’re right on time this time!”
