CHAPTER 786: CHAPTER 319 PURCHASE CONDITIONS
"The second showstopping treasure is a century-old Jade Marrow, known as one of the purest sources of Star Power in the world. It can directly absorb and refine Star Power to enhance one’s Cultivation Level without any side effects. The contained Star Power exceeds five hundred Fifth Order Star Jade Tablets.
This item is only exchangeable for Purple Ghost Ginseng or other Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures that significantly enhance Divine Soul Power, with a consignment period of one year."
"The third showstopping treasure consists of five Red Sparrow Feathers. Most esteemed guests are aware of its uses—it’s a prized possession for Fifth Tier Fire Series Star Skill cultivators to greatly advance their progress in the Gathering Battle and can also be used to refine Sixth-tier Star Devices, as well as being one of the primary materials for Spiritual Treasures.
Similarly, this treasure is not for sale but only for exchange, solely for an identical number of Earth Dragon Ganoderma or double the quantity of various Gathering Battle treasures from other series."
Upon hearing about the appearance of the necessary Red Sparrow Feathers—even though it was anticipated—Xu Jin still felt somewhat helpless when he heard the specific requirements for trading.
At this moment, Xu Jin fully understood what Teacher Kou Jing meant; real treasures cannot be measured by material wealth, as they are often traded for goods.
Any treasure that can be bought with money, if found, is considered a steal.
It seems, for Xu Jin to obtain these Red Sparrow Feathers, he must first acquire the Earth Dragon Ganoderma to trade.
But where could he find the Earth Dragon Ganoderma?
In fact, Xu Jin also desired the century-old Jade Marrow.
The amount of Star Power it contained exceeded five hundred Fifth Order Star Jade Tablets—a reference for estimation.
Xu Jin currently cultivates six two-hour periods a day, using one Fifth Order Star Jade Tablet each period, and at this rate, he can enhance his Cultivation Level by one layer in just over 25 days.
That is to say, every 150 pieces of Fifth Order Star Jade are approximately sufficient for Xu Jin to advance one Cultivation Layer.
Five hundred pieces would increase Xu Jin’s Cultivation Level by more than three layers.
By this calculation, it could save Xu Jin almost three months of cultivation.
This is definitely a powerful tool for accelerating progress.
Unfortunately, it’s not for sale!
Only trade.
And what they want to trade for is even more precious Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures that enhance Divine Soul Cultivation.
These items are even more valuable.
Xu Jin has some, but he can’t bear to exchange them.
He can only make a note and search slowly.
"The fourth showstopping treasure is the Nine-leaf Golden Lotus Seed, which can heal hidden injuries of the Divine Soul and replenish the Divine Soul Origin; it also contains abundant Divine Soul Power, helpful for breaking through the bottlenecks of Divine Soul Cultivation, and even more effective when used for Condensing Primordial Spirit!
This treasure is also only available for exchange, not for sale.
The owner of this treasure is willing to trade it for a Dragon Fish Cinnamon or other Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures that can bring the dead to life or reattach severed limbs."
Xu Jin actually owns the fourth treasure,
given to him by the State Preceptor.
Realizing it’s a showstopping treasure at the auction that’s only available for trade, Xu Jin couldn’t help but feel more gratitude.
The State Preceptor treated him with true sincerity.
Such a precious treasure, and he just handed it over without any hesitation.
Lucky that Xu Jin brought back the sealed Divine Soul Power in the Star Jade, or else he might have felt uneasy.
But what Xu Jin didn’t expect was that the trade involved Dragon Fish Cinnamon, which can reattach severed limbs.
It shows how rare and in demand such Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures are.
But it makes sense; on the battlefield, no one can predict accidents, and injuries are common, making these types of treasures particularly sought after.
After the four main treasures were auctioned, the auction came to an end.
Manager Liu arrived early at Xu Jin’s private room and handed over a Jade Tablet, which contained the settlement list for Xu Jin’s participation in this auction.
With just one glance, Xu Jin was slightly astonished.
The earnings were even more than he had expected.
The Emblems he consigned actually sold for 267,000 threads of Starlight, at a price two to three times higher than normal.
Through the process, Xu Jin had witnessed that the Emblems from Fifth Tier Lower and Fifth Tier Middle were the most popular.
The Fifth Tier Middle Emblems were auctioned at prices up to forty percent over the normal.
One transaction had made Xu Jin quite a fortune.
Of course, not every Emblem Master can make such money.
Xu Jin earned so much for two reasons; first, the Star Jade Tablets he used were seized by himself, almost cost-free.
Second, Xu Jin used Warm Dream to restore Divine Soul Power; other Emblem Masters usually had to use Three Yin Clearing Mind Pills and long periods of sleep to recover.
There’s also the risk of exploding Emblems.
Now that Xu Jin’s Divine Soul Power had reached Fourth Rank Ninth Layer, far stronger than most Emblem Masters, the risk of exploding Emblems was much reduced.
Also, practice made perfect.
Other Emblem Masters were dependant on using Star Jade Tablets.
A Fifth Tier Emblem Master who wanted to reliably produce Fifth Tier Emblems would need at least a thousand to fifteen hundred Fifth Order Star Jade Tablets, a substantial cost.
But this cost was something Xu Jin could address with Star Lamp.
Otherwise, the profit Xu Jin would have made from today’s sales would at best be about twenty percent.
Today, Xu Jin had bid for ten Dragon Turtle Soul Refining Pills, a thousand-year turtle shell, and a Sixth-tier lower-grade Star Device, spending a total of 154,000 threads of Starlight.
After deducting commissions, Xu Jin had over 100,000 threads of Starlight left.
Suddenly, his financial situation was much more comfortable.
"Manager Liu, about that first showstopper, the one with the Thunder Series Heaven and Earth Star Will, can we discuss the price?" Xu Jin asked suddenly after completing the transaction, which accelerated Manager Liu’s heartbeat.
The young master before him asking such a question likely had the means to purchase the showstopper treasure.
