Chapter 523 Exchange for a Strange Fire! (4K)_2
```
In addition, Tai Hua Holy Land was shrouded by a barrier, so even if someone successfully stole treasures, they wouldn't be able to escape.
After a moment of contemplation, Lu Changsheng took out a 16th-grade Heavenly Material and Earthly Treasure—Taiyi Fiery Gold.
Considering that the Tai Hua Holy Maiden had traded with him due to lack of this material, it was highly likely that the Treasure Pavilion of Tai Hua Holy Land did not possess this treasure.
The Elder of the Treasure Pavilion initially didn't think much of it, but when he saw Lu Changsheng take out the Taiyi Fiery Gold, he was immediately stunned.
This was akin to a villager sharing space teleportation technology with you, that kind of shock.
"This piece of Taiyi Fiery Gold, which we don't have in Tai Hua Holy Land, can be valued higher in contribution points, say, 1 billion contribution points, how about that?"
Taiyi Fiery Gold was a unique ore from the Primordial Ancient Mines, which were not easily obtainable even by Tai Hua Holy Land.
The Elder of the Treasure Pavilion greatly valued this treasure that the Holy Land did not possess and awarded Lu Changsheng 1 billion contribution points.
"Hmm."
Lu Changsheng had ways to restore Taiyi Fiery Gold and did not value it too highly; converting it into contribution points sufficed.
"I also have another piece of Taiyi Fiery Gold."
"And Sunflame Essence Gold."
"And Primordial Extreme Sand."
"And a 16th-grade Immortal Pill, Nine Yang Holy Transformation Pill."
...
Lu Changsheng subsequently took out a pile of treasures, all exchanged for contribution points.
The Elder of the Treasure Pavilion watched, dumbfounded.
This Golden Immortal who had just joined the Holy Land—how could he possess so many treasures?
However, to him, Lu Changsheng's actions seemed somewhat odd.
Donating treasures was akin to selling them at a third of their value; such a loss!
Undeterred, Lu Changsheng ended up with 80 billion contribution points in total.
With these contribution points, he could exchange for a large batch of treasures below the 14th-grade.
As a regular disciple, Lu Changsheng could only choose treasures from the first fourteen levels.
Having the Disciple Apprenticeship Simulator, which allowed him to restore high-grade treasures, Lu Changsheng aimed to exchange for some unseen or limited-quantity treasures.
"Demon Blood Stone?"
On the thirteenth level, Lu Changsheng saw three stones stained with demon blood.
He had obtained a Demon Blood Stone in Zhengsheng Sect before, a special treasure produced in the Nine Nether forbidden land, tainted with the blood of an Ancient Great Demon. Although it was only a single drop, it was extremely precious.
The three Demon Blood Stones in Tai Hua Holy Land were priced at 10 million each.
Clearly, since no one in Tai Hua Holy Land cultivated demonic arts, the value of the Demon Blood Stones was not high, and because the drop of demon blood in the stone had diminished over countless years, they were rated as 13th-grade Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures.n/ô/vel/b//jn dot c//om
But this Demon Blood Stone was very important for Lu Changsheng's ninth disciple.
Gifting the Demon Blood Stone could be exchanged for a 16th-grade Heavenly Material and Earthly Treasure, the Demon Marshal's Blood.
With 80 billion contribution points to his name, Lu Changsheng could exchange for 800 Demon Blood Stones.
Tai Hua Holy Land only had three, which Lu Changsheng exchanged for all, spending 30 million contribution points.
Lu Changsheng pocketed the Demon Blood Stones and continued to exchange for other treasures.
"14th-grade refining material—Green Cloud Dragon-Patterned Iron, valued at 50 million contribution points."
"14th-grade Immortal Pill—All-Poison Immunity Pill, valued at 10 million contribution points."
"13th-grade Heavenly Material and Earthly Treasure—Purple Ghost Ginseng, valued at 13 million contribution points."
...
Lu Changsheng exchanged for hundreds of rare treasures and Immortal Pills in one go.
"What is this treasure?"
On the fourteenth level of the Treasure Pavilion, Lu Changsheng saw a purple gold gourd containing a red flame that faintly manifested the shapes of myriad beasts.
A simple description on the shelf read: Myriad Beasts Spirit Fire, a 14th-grade Heavenly Material and Earthly Treasure, one of the wandering Spiritual Fires between heaven and earth, suitable for those with a Fire Spirit Root. After swallowing, it can imbue True Qi with the power of Myriad Beasts Spirit Fire. Due to its uniqueness, although it is a 14th-grade treasure, it provides a slight improvement to Heavenly Immortals and is valued not less than a 15th-grade Heavenly Material and Earthly Treasure, requiring 500 million contribution points.
A 14th-grade Heavenly Material and Earthly Treasure priced at 500 million contribution points—no wonder no disciples of Tai Hua Holy Land desired to exchange for it.
Myriad Beasts Spirit Fire provided significant improvement to cultivators below the level of Daluo Golden Immortal; sadly, few below that level were willing to spend 500 million contribution points to exchange for Myriad Beasts Spirit Fire. Moreover, only those with a Fire Spirit Root were suitable to swallow the Spiritual Fire to strengthen their fiery True Qi.
And for those stronger than Daluo Golden Immortals, the improvement brought by Myriad Beasts Spirit Fire was minimal; there was no need to exchange for it when they could trade for other treasures instead.
```
These two reasons led to the Myriad Beasts Spirit Fire having a rather awkward status in the Treasure Pavilion, with no one inquiring about it.
But for Lu Changsheng, it was different.
First of all, after rewarding his disciple with a mystical fire, the Disciple Apprenticeship Simulator could return a higher-grade mystical fire. The Myriad Beasts Spirit Fire could thus realize greater value.
Secondly, Lu Changsheng was not lacking contribution points, so he could make the exchange without any burden.
Therefore, Lu Changsheng used 500 million contribution points to exchange for the Myriad Beasts Spirit Fire.
"Are you sure?"
The Elder of the Treasure Pavilion didn't understand why Lu Changsheng would act like a sucker, trading for an unwanted treasure and even spending 500 million contribution points on it.
The problem was that this spiritual fire could provide only a minuscule enhancement to a Daluo Golden Immortal like Lu Changsheng!
The cost-performance ratio of the Myriad Beasts Spirit Fire was not high; what did he want it for?
"Sure."
Lu Changsheng knew that there were many spiritual fires in the world, and some were even more advanced than the Myriad Beasts Spirit Fire, such as the Wuji True Fire that the Qingyue Fairy had absorbed.
Lu Changsheng was somewhat eager to see what higher-level spiritual fire he could get in return after rewarding his disciple with the Myriad Beasts Spirit Fire.
"I will make a record of it, and the Myriad Beasts Spirit Fire will be yours."
Seeing Lu Changsheng's firm resolve, the Elder of the Treasure Pavilion, after updating the information on the token, handed Lu Changsheng the Purple Gold Bagua Gourd.
After exchanging a pile of Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures, Lu Changsheng returned to Yuntai Peak feeling satisfied.
"What's the background of this kid?"
The Elder of the Treasure Pavilion became curious.
"It is said that he's a Loose Cultivator invited to join our Tai Hua Holy Land by the Holy Maiden herself. When he came in, he also had a token from the Saint Lord."
"A man valued by both the Holy Maiden and the Saint Lord wouldn't be any ordinary person. It's quite possible that he'll be taken as a disciple by the Saint Lord."
The Elder of the Treasure Pavilion felt like he might have missed an opportunity to curry favor.
"Since the Qingyang Immortal Emperor went missing, the Saint Lord hasn't taken any disciples for four million years, and he's been guiding the Holy Maiden in her cultivation. It's unlikely he will take a new disciple."
"If he were to be taken as a disciple by the Saint Lord, that would be something incredible."
"Don't get lost in wishful thinking. Would the Saint Lord take a disciple so easily? Without the potential to become an Immortal Emperor, the Saint Lord would hardly bother to give even a bit of guidance."
The disciples and Elder of the Treasure Pavilion were still whispering among themselves after Lu Changsheng had left.
Lu Changsheng returned to Yuntai Peak, and without delay, he summoned his disciple Xiao Fan.
After careful consideration, he always felt that Xiao Fan was the best choice to receive the Myriad Beasts Spirit Fire.
Lu Qinglian had the Phoenix Fire Lotus Qi, Ning Qianqian was from the Dragon Clan, and Dugu Aotian cultivated Demonic Cultivation Skills. Xiao Fan, on the other hand, didn't yet have any special True Qi.
When Xiao Fan arrived at the cave dwelling, Lu Changsheng took out the Purple Gold Bagua Gourd that contained the Myriad Beasts Spirit Fire.
"This spiritual fire, if you absorb and refine it, integrating it into your True Qi, will enhance your True Qi," said Lu Changsheng, handing the Myriad Beasts Spirit Fire to Xiao Fan.
"Thank you, Master."
Xiao Fan had received rewards many times and was already used to it.
He opened the Purple Gold Bagua Gourd and absorbed the Myriad Beasts Spirit Fire within.
The Myriad Beasts Spirit Fire was absorbed by Xiao Fan's War Heaven Tyrant Body, merging with his fire-based True Qi.
As the Myriad Beasts Spirit Fire was not a high-level Spiritual Fire, it was effortlessly absorbed by the War Heaven Tyrant Body.
This also counted as the first mystical fire Xiao Fan had absorbed.
Xiao Fan spread his palm open, and a brilliant flame appeared in his hand, intermittently transforming into the shapes of mythical beasts.
After absorbing the Myriad Beasts Spirit Fire, Xiao Fan's True Qi was noticeably strengthened.
It seemed that absorbing spiritual fires was also a viable path.
Of course, if one's constitution wasn't tyrannical enough, they would not be able to withstand the fearsome power of the spiritual fire.
"I wonder what quality the Wuji True Fire of Qingyue Fairy is…"
Lu Changsheng realized his knowledge of spiritual fires was limited and decided that he might visit the Scripture Pavilion in the future to exchange for a book on this topic.
Given the scale of the Tai Hua Holy Land, there shouldn't be a lack of records about spiritual fires.
[Ding, you have rewarded your disciple Xiao Fan with the rank 13 "Myriad Beasts Spirit Fire" and received a reward of a million times return: the rank 16 "Nine Serenities Ancestral Gold Fire."]
Lu Changsheng was stunned—the returned spiritual fire sounded extraordinary.
