Qinghe Immortal Clan.

Chapter 696 Heading to the East China Sea to Trade Materials

After the monster turmoil, most of the countries surrounding the Floating Cloud Mountains obtained a large amount of monster materials in this great turmoil. What the major markets are not short of at the moment is various low-level monster materials.

Only those relatively rare high-level monster materials above level three are still in great demand in the market.

The Song family also obtained a lot of monster materials from the "Jinshanfang". It was difficult to sell all of them in the surrounding markets in a short period of time, so they needed to take them to a farther place to exchange them for spirit stones more quickly.

Therefore, Song Qingming had already had the idea in his mind to go to the East China Sea Xiuxian World to deal with the monster materials in the family treasury.

Many of the monster materials on the Floating Cloud Mountains are relatively rare in the East China Sea's immortal cultivation world. After being transported to the East China Sea's immortal cultivation world, they can be sold at a higher price.

In previous years, after every monster riot, the immortal sects around the Floating Cloud Mountains, such as the "Xiaoyao Sect", would also send large flying boats to transport monster materials to the East China Sea immortal world to sell in exchange for other spiritual objects.

Hearing Song Qingming's idea, Huang Siyuan also nodded and said, "This is a good idea. I know a few familiar shops in Tiandan City, so it's not a problem to sell these monster materials.

If all the monster materials stored by the family can be transported to Tiandan City, the price will be at least 20% higher than if the family sells them in Chiyanfang. This deal is still very cost-effective for us."

"Senior Sister Li, Seventh Brother, and Sister-in-law all have a Level 3 flying boat. If we don't bring anyone else, it's enough to transport the monster materials stored in the family's treasury pavilion.

It's a pity that we don't have a large flying boat, otherwise we can collect all the monster materials from the vassal families below, so that we can earn a lot of spirit stones in a trip to the East China Sea. "Song Qingyu sighed with some regret.

Both Li Xuanyi and Song Qingming have been in the Jindan stage for many years, and the third-level flying boats they are carrying are both third-level mid-grade flying boats of better quality.

Although Huang Siyuan has not been in the Dan stage for long, she has been traveling to "Tian Dan City" for many years. She has also used her status as an outer sect elder to exchange her merits and spirit stones for a third-grade lower-grade flying boat in the alliance.

Although the quality and flying speed of Huang Siyuan's flying boat are not as good as the third-level intermediate-grade flying boat used by Song Qingming and others, it is sufficient for her, an early Jindan cultivator, for daily use.

Song Qingyu did not go out of his way to collect this item because his natal flying sword, the "Xuanming Golden Light Sword", could be used instead of a flying boat. He basically used it to travel when he went out over the years.

Song Qingming laughed when he heard this: "Haha! Although large flying boats are rare, as long as the family can develop steadily in the future, these things will gradually become available. You don't have to be so greedy for the time being."

The large flying boat controlled by the "Xiaoyao Sect" is much slower than the small flying boats used by Jindan cultivators such as Song Qingming, but the number of cultivators and cargo it can carry is beyond the reach of small flying boats.

Under normal circumstances, a large third-level flying boat can carry thousands of cultivators at a time. Even if the Song family moves the entire Treasury Pavilion on board, it will still be able to accommodate them.

However, the construction drawings of this kind of large flying boat are generally in the hands of large sects above the Nascent Soul stage, and are rarely seen on the market.

Moreover, building a large flying boat requires at least hundreds of cultivators proficient in refining techniques to operate it simultaneously, and it is not something that an ordinary Jindan family like the Song family is capable of building now.

There are also some large sects outside that will sell this kind of third-level large flying boat. When Song Qingming was in the immortal cultivation world of "Donghuang Country", he once saw someone auctioning this item at a large auction.

Although not many people made bids at that time, the item was finally sold at a high price of 70,000 spirit stones, which was much more than the third-grade intermediate "Phantom Boat" on Song Qingming's person. It was indeed not something that an ordinary immortal cultivation family could afford.

Although the Song family does not currently have the ability to own a spiritual object of this level, as Song Qingming said, as long as the family continues to develop slowly and steadily, one day they will be able to own a large flying boat.

"Okay! It's settled then, Junior Brother Song, when you get to the East China Sea, just go about your business. I'll have Qingyu to accompany you.

Don't worry, after we travel around the East China Sea, it will be time for me to go back, and I won't bother you all the time." After Li Xuanyi finished speaking, he glanced at Song Qingming lightly, as if he was still a little unhappy with what he said before.

In this regard, Song Qingming could only look away and felt helpless.

The last time Li Xuanyi helped the sect fight against the monster riot, he had already used the self-defense means left to him by his master Taoist Lingxu on the "Red Cloud Demon King". Now, if she encounters any danger outside, she no longer has this trump card to repel the enemy.

Therefore, after she came out of seclusion, Song Qingming, out of consideration for Li Xuanyi's personal safety, still hoped that she could quickly return to the "Donghuang Kingdom" world of immortal cultivation.

However, the temper of this senior sister of his was indeed a little difficult to understand. Even though she knew that Song Qingming was doing this for her own good, she was not afraid of the dangers and liked to travel around.

After knowing that he could not persuade the other party, Song Qingming did not dare to say any more to Li Xuanyi, for fear that he would make her unhappy if he said too much.

After the four of them discussed in person about going to the East China Sea to cultivate immortals, Song Qingming immediately conveyed instructions to Song Yuanfanghe and Song Yuanqian, asking them to hurry up and sort out all the monster materials in the family's treasury.

Although the monster riot had just passed and the territory of Wei State was still very peaceful, Song Qingming, for safety reasons, personally went to the "Xiaoyao Sect" to say hello to the leader Bai Yuxian and asked the sect to help look after Qinghe County.

Upon hearing that Song Qingming was going to take Huang Siyuan and others to the East China Sea to purchase some spiritual objects, Bai Yuxian guessed that Song Qingming might want to do business.

The Song family obtained so many monster materials from the "Jinshanfang". Bai Yuxian, as the head of the sect, was naturally aware of this. However, these were things that the sect had already tacitly agreed to, so she did not say much and quickly nodded in agreement.

After Song Yuanfang and his companions prepared for several days, they finally sorted and organized all the monster materials and moved them out one by one from the family's treasury.

After moving all these materials onto the flying boat that Song Qingming and his team had already prepared, several beams of light soon flew out from "Funiu Mountain" and headed eastward through "Chiyanfang" and entered Yunwu Mountain.

This time, on their trip to the East China Sea to cultivate immortals, in addition to Song Qingming and his four companions, there were also Song Yuanqian and Song Xuanfeng.

The reason for bringing the two of them along was not only to let them go out and broaden their horizons, but also to save some effort when Song Qingming and others were counting the monster materials after they arrived at "Tiandan City".

Li Xuanyi, Song Qingming and Huang Siyuan controlled their own flying boats to carry the cargo, while Song Yuanqian and Song Xuanfeng followed their elder Song Qingyu and set off on the "Xuanming Golden Light Sword".

Because the flying boat was carrying too much cargo, the group traveled much slower than usual, and it took them two full days to cross the Yunwu Mountain in the east.

After entering the territory of Zheng State, Song Qingming and his companions were stunned by the extremely miserable scene before them, and they couldn't help but take a deep breath.

Because Zheng State did not have a Nascent Soul Sect to rule it, every time there was a monster riot, a lot of its territory would be occupied by the monster army moving south, and it would also suffer the loss of many cultivators and mortals.

This time when monsters rioted, even with the help of "Tianji Sect", the two sects of Zheng State were still no match for "Chiyun Mountain" and lost many sacred mountains and markets.

Even though the monsters retreated to the north, the "Tianxing" and "Minghe" sects regained most of their territories. However, the northern part of Zheng State was also severely damaged. The places where Song Qingming and his companions passed by were littered with bones, and there were no human beings to be seen.

Those markets that used to be bustling with people and gatherings of monks were now also in a state of ruin. Some of them had not even restored their mountain protection formations. There were ruins everywhere and hardly any people were to be seen.

Seeing such a tragic scene in Zheng State, Song Qingming and others were secretly glad that the Song family's territory was not as miserable as this side.

The location where the few people were located was close to the north of Zheng State. Although the monster riot had ended, at this time there were still smoke everywhere in the north of Zheng State, and many monsters were hiding.

This also made Song Qingming and his companions, who were on their way, a little nervous. They changed direction and moved as close to the south as possible, for fear of running into the army of monsters that had not yet evacuated.

After almost three days of fear and worry, Song Qingming and his companions finally successfully crossed the relatively dangerous State of Zheng and entered a small country nearby where the situation was slightly better. Only then did everyone slowly let down their guard.

The rest of the journey was relatively smooth. After passing through the huge "Duanyun Mountains", the group directly entered the East China Sea immortal cultivation world. It took about a month and a half before they finally arrived outside the "Tiandan City" in the sea.

With Huang Siyuan, the outer sect elder of the "Tian Dan League" leading the way, the procedures for Song Qingming and his companions to enter the city were much simpler than before. They just registered their identities and quickly entered the city.

Ever since Huang Siyuan formed her elixir, Song Qingming hasn't been to "Tian Dan City" for more than forty years.

However, the impression this place gave him was no different from decades ago, and it was still as prosperous as ever.

Although the size of "Tian Dan City" is not as large as the super-large city "Xian Yuan City" in the immortal cultivation world of "Dong Huang Kingdom", it is already the most prosperous place in the Floating Cloud Mountains and the East China Sea immortal cultivation world.

This is mainly due to the huge influence of the "Tian Dan League". After all, this place gathers more than 30% of the high-level alchemists in the entire East China Sea cultivation world. If nearby cultivators want to ask for any elixir, coming to "Tian Dan City" is their best choice.

Song Yuanqian and Song Xuanfeng, two younger family members who followed behind several Jindan cultivators, were visiting a large city like "Tiandan City" for the first time. Seeing such a lively and prosperous scene, they couldn't help but exclaim in amazement.

The streets of "Tian Dan City" were bustling with people, and foundation-building cultivators could be seen everywhere. Even Jindan cultivators like Song Qingming would not easily cause a stir here as they would in other places. The spiritual resources of the East Sea Xiuxian Realm were also richer than those of the Floating Cloud Mountains. Various second-level spiritual pills that were rarely seen in the Weiguo Market were not rare spiritual objects in "Tian Dan City" at all. You could find them in any small shop on the street.

Li Xuanyi, a knowledgeable Jindan cultivator who often travels around, was also attracted by the fresh spiritual objects displayed in the surrounding shops after entering the prosperous "Tiandan City". From time to time, he asked Song Qingyu beside him about the uses of these spiritual objects.

The group first found an inn in the market town and stayed there. Then, under the leadership of Huang Siyuan, they came to a shop called "Wanlingtang".

A cultivator in the late Foundation Establishment stage who was running the shop, upon seeing Huang Siyuan and Song Qingming and a few others walk into the shop, immediately stepped forward and bowed to them.

"Haha! I always felt that there would be distinguished guests coming today. It turns out that you are back, Senior Huang. I am honored to meet you, seniors!"

Since joining the "Tian Dan League", Huang Siyuan has come to the East China Sea almost every one or two years, and occasionally helps her family buy some supplies in "Tian Dan City".

In addition to the "Tian Dan Pavilion", this "Wan Ling Tang" is also a shop she used to visit frequently, so the shop owner is already very familiar with the senior Huang Siyuan.

"Manager Liu, these people came with me from the Floating Cloud Mountains. Today we came to you to ask, we have a batch of monster materials that we want to sell, I wonder if your store is willing to buy them?"

As soon as they met, Huang Siyuan did not hesitate to be polite with the other party and immediately stated the purpose of her visit.

Hearing that Huang Siyuan was here to sell monster materials, the shopkeeper Liu was a little surprised at first, but when he thought that Huang Siyuan and the others came from the Floating Cloud Mountains, he immediately understood and hurriedly smiled and nodded in response:

"Please come in first, seniors! We do accept monster materials, but I don't know how many monster materials you have. Can you let me see them first?"

As Shopkeeper Liu spoke, he warmly invited Song Qingming and others into a secret room at the back of the shop.

"Of course. We brought only the best monster materials this time. Just don't make a mistake."

After Manager Liu closed the door, Huang Siyuan immediately signaled to Song Yuanqian beside her and asked her to hand over an account book recording the monster materials that she had prepared.

Looking at the numerous monster materials recorded in the account book, Shopkeeper Liu's eyes lit up, and he quickly started to discuss the price with Huang Siyuan and Song Yuanqian.

Many of the monster materials brought by the Song family are not available in the East China Sea's immortal cultivation world, so under normal circumstances, the prices are naturally higher than those in Weiguo.

Song Yuanqian has been in charge of the family's treasury in recent years, and has been dealing with various spiritual objects every day. Not only does he know the prices of various monster materials in the market, he is also an expert at negotiating prices with others.

After several arguments, the shopkeeper Hu who was killed had to admit defeat and had to make a lot of concessions on the price before he reached an agreement with Song Yuanqian and purchased a batch of monster materials from the Song family.

Song Yuanqian's outstanding performance made Li Xuanyi and others sitting next to her look at her with admiration.

"Wanlingtang" was just a medium-sized store in Tiandan City. It had no way of buying all the monster materials brought by the Song family at once, and only purchased less than 30% of the materials from them.

After receiving the spirit stones from the other party and completing the transaction, Song Qingming and others took the initiative to say goodbye and leave, preparing to return to the inn to rest first, and continue to sell the remaining monster materials on them tomorrow.

Unexpectedly, early the next morning, before Song Qingming and his companions went out, a guy from "Tian Dan Pavilion" came to them and invited them to the VIP room on the third floor of "Tian Dan Pavilion".

"Haha! Junior Sister Huang, fellow Taoists, I was busy with worldly matters and couldn't go out to greet you. I hope you can forgive me for my impoliteness!"

Not long after Song Qingming and his companions arrived, a fifty-year-old man with slightly gray hair immediately strode in. It was Ye Qiuyuan, the elder of the "Tian Dan League" whom Song Qingming had not seen for many years.

"Fellow Daoist Ye, you are too polite. We just arrived yesterday and wanted to finish our business first and then come to visit in a few days. I didn't expect that you would send someone to invite us so soon. To be honest, we are a little rude."

Ye Qiuyuan glanced at Song Qingming's face before he smiled and explained, "Haha! What a coincidence! I just came back yesterday and heard about a few Taoist friends going to the Hall of All Spirits. Then I learned that you, Taoist Song, brought a batch of monster materials from the Floating Cloud Mountains.

Although we at Tiandan Pavilion are only interested in the business of elixirs, I do know a few friends in the city who deal in such spiritual objects. I thought I could help you, so I took the initiative to invite Fellow Daoist Song over. I hope you can forgive me for any inconvenience."

"Oh! I see. This is really a bother to you, Brother Ye." After hearing Ye Qiuyuan's explanation, Song Qingming instantly understood the other party's purpose of inviting him here, and hurriedly stood up and bowed to express his gratitude.

When Song Qingming learned in the morning that Ye Qiuyuan invited him over, he actually had some guesses in his mind. After all, Tiandan City was under the nose of the "Tiandan League". Ye Qiuyuan knew that what happened when they came here yesterday was not a strange thing.

However, Song Qingming did not expect that Ye Qiuyuan, a late Jindan elder of the "Tian Dan League", would be interested in the monster materials he brought.

Upon hearing this, Ye Qiuyuan immediately waved his hands and said, "Haha! Fellow Daoist and I are already good friends, and Junior Sister Huang is one of us, so there's no need to thank me for such a small thing.

I wonder how many monster materials Fellow Daoist Song has on him? Why don't you take them out and show them to me? If they are suitable, I will immediately ask someone to invite them over and give them to you, so that you don't have to go through the trouble again."

"Well! What Fellow Daoist Ye said makes sense. Thank you for your help!" After Song Qingming finished speaking, he took the account from Song Yuanqian who was standing behind him and handed it to Ye Qiuyuan beside him personally.

Although I know that the other party is willing to help me, he must want to make some profit from the difference.

However, Ye Qiuyuan is an elder with some influence in the "Tian Dan League" after all. If giving up some benefits to him can gain some favors, it won't be a big loss.

After Ye Qiuyuan took a look at the accounts, he found that it was just as Song Qingming had expected, so he immediately agreed to the matter with a smile.

Not long after, two Jindan cultivators who received the message from Ye Qiuyuan walked in from the door and greeted Song Qingming and others.

These two people were Jindan cultivators who had been running shops in "Tian Dan City" for many years. They had a very good relationship with Ye Qiuyuan. After looking at the accounts of monster materials in his hands, they agreed on the spot to purchase all the monster materials on it.

After a while of negotiation with the help of Ye Qiuyuan, the two sides quickly determined the prices of all materials and purchased all the remaining monster materials brought by the Song family.

This time, because Ye Qiuyuan facilitated the deal, Song Qingming also made some concessions on the final price, giving up about half of the profit to the other party.

After the deal was reached between the two parties, Ye Qiuyuan's face showed an unconcealable joy, and he happily sent the two people who had collected the spiritual objects away.

Seeing that all the monster materials he brought had been sold, Song Qingming felt a little more relieved. After seeing Ye Qiuyuan turn around and walk back, he took the initiative to stand up and express his gratitude to him.

"Thanks to you for your help today, I have been spared a lot of trouble. I would like to thank you for your help. Please accept these spirit stones."

Seeing the bag of spirit stones in Song Qingming's hand, Ye Qiuyuan immediately shook his head seriously and said:
"I am only trying to help you with this. Fellow Daoist Song, please don't do this. Put the spirit stone away quickly, or you will hurt the friendship between us."

"Haha! I am also sincere, please don't blame me, since this matter has been settled, we will not stay here to disturb you, we will come to visit you another day."

Hearing the other party's polite refusal, Song Qingming did not insist too much. He smiled and put away the bag of spirit stones in his hand, and said goodbye to Ye Qiuyuan.

"Fellow Daoist Song, wait a moment. I asked you to come here today because, besides this matter, I have something else I want to discuss with you. Please don't be anxious." Seeing that Song Qingming was about to say goodbye and leave, Ye Qiuyuan spoke again to stop him.

"Oh! I don't know if you have anything else to say, but you can tell me!" Seeing this, Song Qingming sat back down.

Ye Qiuyuan first called the waiter outside to come in, and after replacing a new cup of spiritual tea for Song Qingming and others, he slowly said: "Fellow Daoist Song, you came from the Floating Cloud Mountains this time, and you should have brought more than just these low-level monster materials.

I have been refining a batch of high-level elixirs recently, and I just happen to be in need of some high-level monster materials. I would like to ask you, fellow Taoist, if you have any fire-attributed monster king inner elixir of level three or above.

If there is one, I am willing to offer it to you in exchange for one. I wonder if you are willing to do so!"

"I do have a fire-attributed demon king inner elixir above level three, but you should know the value of it. I wonder what price you are willing to pay, please tell me first!"

When Song Qingming heard that the other party wanted to exchange a Level 3 Demon King Inner Core with him, although he admitted that he had this thing, he did not rush to agree to the exchange with the other party. He planned to listen to the other party's offer before making a decision. (End of this chapter)
