With none of the items for sale exceeding a single digit.
Li Yi’s two consecutive five-figure scores directly stunned all four people in the group.
Huang Rong: “Knowing the effects of the Nine-Aperture Golden Elixir, I realized that this elixir must be very valuable.
“But I never imagined that a single elixir would be worth 300 points.
“Just the value of the two Nine-Aperture Golden Elixirs in my hands.
“Not to mention the entire Peach Blossom Island, even if you emptied out great sects like Shaolin and Quanzhen, you might not be able to afford it, right?”
Lin Fengjiao: “One Nine-Aperture Golden Elixir costing 300 points seems expensive, but it's absolutely worth the price considering its effects.
“This pricing is likely already a discount offered by the group owner.
“The truly exorbitant price should be for that ‘Martial Canon’.
“My Maoshan’s ‘Basic Talismans’ only costs five points. I'm curious what kind of martial arts could sell for 80,000 points.”
Ying Zheng: “Exorbitant price? Daoist Lin hasn't read the description of the ‘Martial Canon’ yet, has she?
“The ‘Martial Canon’ is divided into two parts: body tempering and internal cultivation.
“Perfecting the ‘Refining Flesh’ stage will grant you a thousand-jin force.
“Perfecting the ‘Refining Tendons’ stage will increase your strength threefold and speed exponentially.
“After ‘Refining Skin and Membranes’, your body will be impervious, making you invulnerable to blades and swords.
“Perfecting the ‘Tempering Bones’ stage will turn you into a bronze-skinned, iron-boned being, capable of breaking through tens of thousands of jin of force.
“After refining the internal organs, your essence and qi will be without leaks, making you immune to all poisons. Your strength will reach the limit of 129,600 jin, and your lifespan will be extended to over three hundred years.
“After refining the marrow and blood, your essence will be transformed. Your single punch will have the power to split mountains, and you’ll be able to achieve immortality and live for eight hundred years.
“Eight hundred years alone is worth more than 80,000 points, even 100,000 or 180,000 points, I would gladly pay it.
“Moreover, the ‘Martial Canon’ contains internal cultivation methods besides body tempering.
“Post-Heaven cultivation of force, Pre-Heaven cultivation of qi, Grandmaster cultivation of true essence, Great Grandmaster cultivation of intent.
“Those who achieve the Great Grandmaster realm can live for over one hundred and fifty years.
“Heaven-Human Realm can harness the power of heaven and earth, overlooking the rise and fall of dynasties for three hundred years.
“Beyond Heaven-Human Realm are two further stages: Martial Spirit and Martial Dharma Image.
“Once the Dharma Image appears, you can single-handedly conquer a nation and enjoy a human lifespan of eight hundred years.
“If you can cultivate both internally and externally, achieving ‘Blood Transformation Martial Saint’ in body tempering and ‘Dharma Image True Body’ in martial arts, you can achieve a thousand-year lifespan and gain the power to move mountains and fill seas.
“This kind of eternal life, it’s not just 80,000 points.
“If my hands weren’t so empty, even if the price doubled, I would still buy it without hesitation.”
Clearly, the ‘Martial Canon’s’ description of martial arts realms, especially the lifespans of three hundred, eight hundred, and a thousand years, really stimulated Ying Zheng.
So much so that this once somewhat reserved emperor of all ages completely abandoned any sense of imperial dignity.
Ying Zheng's message stunned the group. The other three went to the mall to look at the ‘Martial Canon’s’ description.
After reading it, the three were also deeply shocked.
Huang Rong: “Post-Heaven, Pre-Heaven, Grandmaster, Great Grandmaster, Martial Heaven-Human, Martial Spirit, Martial Dharma Image.
“So there are so many realms above the martial path.
“And I haven’t even reached the Post-Heaven realm.
“In fact, even in my world, no one has been able to find a Pre-Heaven after the death of Wang Chongyang, the Divine Transcendent.”
Lin Fengjiao: “This ‘Martial Canon’ is truly worthy of its 80,000 points price. Achieving it will allow you to live over a thousand years in the human realm.
“The increase in lifespan is secondary. Just look at the descriptions of ‘Blood Transformation Martial Saint’ and ‘Martial Dharma Image’.
“If we achieve the ‘Martial Canon’, we'll be able to smack those flying corpses around and make them behave, right?”
Yukino Yukinoshita: “Daoist Lin could be a little bolder. For example… maybe even an Undying Bone would have to behave after being smacked around.”
Ying Zheng: “? Why is increased lifespan secondary?
“No matter how strong you are, if you're dead, it’s all over.
“The most appealing aspect of this ‘Martial Canon’ to me is the thousand-year lifespan.”
Lin Fengjiao: “It’s not that lifespan isn't important.
“It's just that my world has a Heavenly Court and a Netherworld. If we, cultivators, accumulate enough merit, we can take positions in the Heavenly Court and Netherworld after death.
“Even if our merit is insufficient, those who have achieved cultivation can become ghost cultivators and continue to exist after death.
“So, compared to lifespan, I prioritize strength in this world.
“Unfortunately, … Lin is also financially strapped right now, so I can only drool over the ‘Martial Canon’ for now.”
Yukino Yukinoshita: “Speaking of which, we actually each have things that can be exchanged for a lot of points.
“Although it’s not enough to buy the entire ‘Martial Canon’, the martial arts within it can be purchased in stages.
“We each have two Nine-Aperture Golden Elixirs.
“If we could sell one of them to the mall, the 300 points would be enough for us to buy the ‘Great Grandmaster’ and ‘Tempering Bones’ cultivation methods.
“With these cultivation methods, combined with the power of the remaining Nine-Aperture Golden Elixir, we can all become Great Grandmaster level martial artists in a short time.
“With strength, it should be much easier to earn points.”
Yukino’s method is actually the best option available to the four of them right now.
But...
Yukino Yukinoshita: “The only problem is that our Nine-Aperture Golden Elixirs all came from the group owner.
“Selling one of them to the mall feels like we’re betraying his kindness.”
Li Yi: “I gave you the elixirs, they’re yours now.
“You can decide how to handle them.
“However, if you lack initial points, there’s no need to sell the elixirs.
“I can give each new member in the group an interest-free overdraft limit of one thousand points.
“Newcomers who use this limit need to repay it within ten months.
“With this overdraft limit, newcomers can quickly enhance their strength through the mall resources.
“As Yukino said.
“Compared to earning points through your own efforts to buy mall resources.
“Gaining some strength first will make it much easier to earn points and repay the overdraft.”
