the Heaven-Treading Ninefold Realm. Empowered by the power of three lifetimes of reincarnation and the converging might of nine clans within his Annihilation Demon Body, he was undoubtedly at the pe...When Gingercloud was young, he always thought he couldn't cultivate. And he didn't want to become a waste of the Ginger Village, wanting to do something for the people there.
Therefore, he learned alchemy from his grandfather.
To practice alchemy, one must first be familiar with herbs.
Before the age of sixteen, Ginger Cloud spent most of her time memorizing the names and effects of all sorts of medicinal herbs.
After he left Xiang Village and embarked on his path of cultivation, the countless medicinal herbs he had memorized for sixteen years proved to be of great help, allowing him to become a skilled alchemist.
But as his cultivation gradually improved and his horizons broadened, he discovered that many of the herbs he had memorized as a child were species he had never actually encountered.
And he didn't pay too much attention to the matter.
Since he learned that the Ginger Clan was one of the Nine Extinct Clans, he believed those materials might have already disappeared.
Furthermore, as he encountered more and more things, even the identity of an alchemist had been long abandoned by him, so he would not deliberately seek out those unfamiliar herbs anymore.
However, at this moment, within this jade slip, he actually saw several familiar names, and saw medicinal herbs that he thought had already disappeared and become extinct!
Sixteen years of memories allowed Jiang Yun to be all too familiar with these medicinal herbs, naturally confirming that he hadn't remembered incorrectly.
This also means that these medicinal herbs have not actually gone extinct.
The reason why Jiang Yun didn't meet them is because their origin wasn't in the Zhutianji Domain at all, but in this Chaotic Four Realms!
As for Grandpa and everyone in Ginger Village, Ginger Cloud had already learned about them from Forgetful Old Man. She speculated that they should be from the Four Realms Hidden.
Having made some kind of deal with his own father, he hid on his father's body and entered the Astral Plane.
Even, the father entrusted them with his protection, causing them to finally enter the first nether realm, the Shan Hai Realm, becoming their own relatives.
Originally, these facts were all just guesses.
But now the names of these herbs appearing in the Jade Edict have become the most powerful evidence.
This is sufficient proof that Grandpa and everyone in Ginger Village truly come from the Four Realms, from the Four Regions Hidden!
Although the grandfather in the world of mountains and seas also didn't know their own true origins, just as Jiang Yun had already memorized these herbs into his bones and soul, he also remembered the names and effects of these herbs, and told them to Jiang Yun.
Jiang Yun's divine sense continuously swept over the names of these medicinal herbs, muttering in his mouth: "Grandfather, Yue Rou, so you were really here all along!"
"Do you know, I am very close to you now."
"Wait for me, I'll find you guys right away!"
Before that, in Wushen City, Jiang Yun was unable to inquire about the demon clan from others due to his status.
Now that they have arrived at the Four Towns City, where the four clans converge, and with Gao Song, a well-informed individual, by their side, Jiang Yun believes they will soon learn about their grandfather's whereabouts.
Ginger Yun calmed her mind, and her divine sense continued to scan the materials in the jade slip.
From the contents within the Jade Scroll, Gingercloud could easily discern that the materials were arranged in order of their value.
The rarer and more valuable something is, the further back it's ranked.
Like the Red Water Divine Wood and TianShu Legal Stone, these are also for sale here, just that they are listed very far back.
However, when Ginger Cloud saw the last material recorded in the jade slip, his eyes lit up again.
Just then, a burst of hearty laughter suddenly came from outside the door.
A middle-aged man with a smile strode in, bowing to Jiang Yun and saying, "My apologies for making you wait so long!"
"My name is Chen Jianye, the proprietor of this Hundred Treasures Shop. May I ask for your esteemed name"
Ginger Cloud put down the jade slip and stood up, returning the salute to Chen Jianye, who possessed the cultivation of the Revolving Wheel Realm, "Xuanyuan Yun!"
This time, Ginger Cloud borrowed the surname of her third senior brother.
Chen Jianye smiled and said, "So it's Brother Xuan Yuan, I've long admired your name. Come, come, sit down!"
At the same time, he also did not forget to say to Gao Song behind him: "Brother Gao, you sit too!"
Takemoto blinked at Kouun, signaling that he hadn't said anything.
After the three sat down, Chen Jianye didn't rush to ask about the Tianzhu Fa Stone. Instead, he first apologized to Jiang Yun for the attitude of the first-floor clerk.
Then, after some casual chatter, Chen Jianye finally got to the point and said: "Brother Xuanyuan, I heard from my men that you have a piece of Tianshu magic stone for sale"
Jiang Yun nodded and, without hesitation, pulled out the inkstone directly. He placed it on the table, not worrying at all that Chen Jianye would be tempted by the wealth and try to snatch it.
Sizhou City was called the Trading City because the shops here basically all followed the rules.
Outside the shops, there might be incidents of murder and robbery, black eating black, but at least inside the shops, from Gao Song, Jiang Yun hadn't heard anything similar happening.
Moreover, although Chen Jianye's strength should be stronger than his own, Jiang Yun was also confident that he could fight him to a draw.
What's more, Jiang Yun could always feel that faint yet terrifying aura surrounding him.
Jiang Yun believes that if Chen Jianye truly wanted to harm her, he wouldn't ignore this aura.
Looking at the inkstone on the table, Chen Jianye, despite being the shopkeeper of Baishifang, couldn't help but his eyes light up. He said to Jiang Yun, "Brother Xuan Yuan, I wonder if I could take a closer look"
Ginger nodded and said, "Go ahead!"
Having received Jiang Yun's permission, Chen Jianye reached out and grabbed the inkstone in his hand, looking at it seriously.
After a long pause, Chen Jianye placed the inkstone back on the table, his face full of emotion. He said, "To tell you the truth, I, Chen, consider myself to have seen and heard many things in my lifetime, but today I have truly opened my eyes."
"Brother Xuanyuan, you're so generous! You actually used the Tianshu stone to craft this inkstone."
Ginger Cloud waved his hand and said, "Shopkeeper Chen has overpraised me. This is not my work, but a gift from my father."
"Master Chen, is this inkstone alright"
"No!" Chan Jianye shook his head. "Although it's somewhat damaged, it is indeed all made of Tianshu magic stones."
And it uses the finest Tianzhu magic stone, without any impurities, a top-grade material.
Ginger smiled and said, "I wonder how much Mr. Chen is willing to sell it for"
Chen Jianye looked at Jiang Yun and said, "Brother Xuan Yuan is really willing to sell"
Ginger sighed, "There's no other way. Our family has fallen on hard times, and I had to sell it out of necessity."
Chen Jianye pondered for a moment and said, "Alright, Brother Xuan Yuan is a straightforward person, so I won't beat around the bush. This inkstone platform, I give you 500,000 Emperor Origin Stones!"
Before Gingercloud could even speak, Gao Song from the side had already jumped up from his chair with a "thump" and stammered, "How much How much"
Jiang Yun and Chen Jianye both ignored him.
Ginger Cloud also pondered for a moment, shook her head and said, "I'm not satisfied with this price!"
This is not Gingercloud asking for an exorbitant price, but rather he had already seen the price of Heavenly Pivot Stones being sold in the Hundred Treasures Pavilion within his jade slip.
When converted, this large piece of Tianchu Fa Stone, if sold by the Baifu Pavilion, would sell for almost three times the price the other party is currently offering!
Although the general store certainly needs to make a profit, I shouldn't lose too much either.
Moreover, his true purpose was to participate in the appraisal meeting.
Even 500,000 Imperial Source Stones wouldn't be enough to allow him to enter the Treasure Appraisal Grand Meeting, of course it wasn't enough.
Chen Jianye smiled and said, "Then what does Brother Xuan Yuan think is appropriate"
"One million!" Jiang Yun stated his own requirements directly: "To be frank, I'm selling this inkstone to participate in the Appraisal Competition, so I need at least one million emperor source stones."
Chen Jianye's smile deepened as he said, "That's quite a coincidence. At this appraisal conference, my Baishifang happens to have the qualifications to issue a certificate for the customer."
"Alright, I guarantee that Brother Xuanyuan will be able to enter the Treasure Appraisal Grand Meeting, and then buy this inkstone for 800,000 Imperial Source Stones."
Jiang Yun shook his head again and said, "If I had a million Emperor Origin Stones, I wouldn't need to bother Mr. Chen with this proof."
Seeing Chen Jianye was about to speak again, Jiang Yun raised his hand and said, "Besides, I also want to sell some other things!"tonishment. He had no idea what was going on.Actually, at first, Jiang Yun had some reverence for the Demon Lord. But as his own strength increased, his reverence gradually transformed into sympathy.E...
