Chapter 1216: Chapter 515: Lifebound Dharma Treasure Complete [8000-word Mega Chapter Subscription Request]_2

The cultivator who possessed the Red Essence Ganoderma seemed unwilling to give up, and immediately spoke again: “Taoist friend, are you not aware that the Jade Marrow Ganoderma, with a medicinal age of over three thousand years, is the universal primary ingredient for refining Spirit Pills that enhance cultivation? This item can only be cultivated in the Medicine Gardens of major powers and is communal property of sects and families, making it impossible for anyone to trade it away!”

“That’s not something Chen needs to consider.”

The blue-robed man replied indifferently, leaving the other speechless.

Zhou Chun, who had initially been extremely eager to make the trade, now hesitated.

If he were to produce the Jade Marrow Ganoderma with a medicinal age of over three thousand years now, he could indeed obtain this Phoenix-Tailed Flame Sparrow egg. However, doing so might reveal the fact that he had been to a certain hidden cave dwelling or Secret Realm.

But just as Zhou Chun was hesitating, Huangyun True Person, seated at the upper position, suddenly spoke: “A Jade Marrow Ganoderma with three thousand years of medicinal age–I happen to have a few stalks in my Medicine Garden. This Phoenix-Tailed Flame Sparrow egg and the Demon Core in your possession, swap them with me.”

Hearing this, the blue-robed man was overjoyed and hurriedly bowed to offer his thanks: “It is an honor for a junior like me to exchange with True Person.”

He then directly handed over the Demon Bird egg and a jade box containing the Demon Core to Huangyun True Person.

Seeing this, Zhou Chun could only let out a gentle sigh in his heart, extinguishing his interest completely.

He had always wanted a fire-attribute Spirit Pet. If the Phoenix-Tailed Flame Sparrow could be nurtured properly, it would have been perfect for him.

Alas, a moment’s hesitation ultimately made him miss the opportunity, and he could only hope there might be another chance in the future.

The trading continued, and when only one-third of the participants remained, Zhou Chun finally had his turn to present.

He first took out the Green Wood Malevolent Banner and introduced it: “This Dharma Treasure, Green Wood Malevolent Banner, has previously been refined into a middle-grade magical treasure by its last owner’s sacrifices. However, it later fell to an inferior-grade magical treasure due to wear. Since its attributes don’t align well with me, Zhou Mou wishes to exchange it for a fire-attribute or metal-attribute inferior-grade magical treasure.”

He then added, “If any fellow Taoists offer a better treasure, Zhou Mou is willing to supplement the exchange with thousand-year Spiritual Medicine or Dharma Treasure materials.”

After finishing his statement, he displayed a list of supplementary spiritual objects he had prepared.

He had prepared thoroughly for this event and took it very seriously.

As expected, a few cultivators presented their treasures for mutual inspection.

However, after a round of mutual examination, the results were not particularly ideal.

Among them, two cultivators brought treasure blades or swords, but Zhou Chun, knowing Zhou Mingde’s Lifebound Dharma Treasure was already of the same type, was reluctant to trade for them.

Another cultivator had a treasure that fit the criteria–a metal-attribute magical treasure–but it still wasn’t quite what Zhou Chun truly desired.

Just as Zhou Chun was hesitating over whether to settle for the metal-attribute treasure, the cultivator surnamed Hong, who held the Three Suns True Flame Pot, suddenly spoke.

“Taoist Friend Zhou, if you can include that piece of Ink Cloud Stone, then Hong will make the trade with you.”

The Ink Cloud Stone he mentioned was a type of material for Dharma Treasures and had been a trophy Zhou Chun acquired from a battle.

Zhou Chun felt that trading it would put himself at a disadvantage, so he replied, “If Hong Taoist Friend wants Zhou Mou to include the Ink Cloud Stone, then you’ll also need to compensate me with fifty thousand Spirit Coins.”

“Alright, Hong agrees.”

Without much deliberation, the cultivator surnamed Hong immediately accepted.

Thus, after rounds of negotiation, the two completed their exchange.

Successfully acquiring the Three Suns True Flame Pot, Zhou Chun’s baseline goal for attending the trading event was finally achieved, and he felt a sense of relief.

However, he did not immediately end his trading activities. Shortly thereafter, he presented two stalks of thousand-year Treasure Medicine and some Dharma Treasure materials, aiming to exchange for a third-order Demon Core suitable for Spirit Pets, or materials that could enhance the power of Dharma Treasures.

As a result, he did manage to use one stalk of thousand-year Treasure Medicine to acquire a third-order middle-grade earth-attribute Demon Core and to trade one piece of Dharma Treasure material for a third-order inferior-grade metal-attribute Demon Core.

With these results, Zhou Chun’s participation in this trading event turned out to be worthwhile.

One Golden Core Stage cultivator after another took their turns until the very last Golden Core Early Phase cultivator completed their exchange, at which point all eyes shifted to Huangyun True Person.

Seeing that everyone’s attention was now focused on him, Huangyun True Person chuckled lightly and said, “This time, I’ve prepared three treasures. Let’s see if you have the skill to claim them!”

With that, he waved his sleeve, and three treasures immediately appeared before him.

The items were a pale-gold ruler, a yellow talisman emitting an oppressive spiritual pressure, and a white jade bottle.

While everyone studied the three treasures, Huangyun True Person proactively began introducing their origins and functions.

“This is the Golden Mountain-Breaking Ruler, a middle-grade magical treasure and the masterpiece of a Refiner Grandmaster. Its might in a single strike can cleave mountains and shatter earth!”

“This Secret Talisman seals thirty percent of the defensive Divine Skills of mine. Breaking through it would require even a Golden Core Late Stage cultivator to expend at least an hour!”

“The jade bottle holds a portion of refined Wutu Element Essence, which is incredibly versatile. Whether for cultivating earth-attribute Divine Ability Arts, enhancing the power of earth-attribute Dharma Treasures, or assisting in breakthroughs during small realm advancements, its value is boundless!”
