Chapter 975 – Big Expenditure
“What can I do for you?” A middle-aged dark-skinned male looked at the little thieving cat and spoke with interest.
Miao miao!
The little thieving cat took the dark golden chain around its neck, which then turned into a dark golden dragon-snake whip and twirled in the air.
“Merge a dragon tendon into this weapon?” The dark-skinned middle-aged male understood what the little thieving cat meant.
Miao miao!
The little thieving cat jumped into the Misty Spatial World and took out several items that Zhao Feng had obtained in this ancient dimension.
Zhao Feng paused for a moment. The materials that the little thieving cat took out were all quite valuable.
“The forge tower does have dragon tendon, but this is the price.” A dark hand pointed, and a screen containing many types of dragon tendon appeared. The price next to them was enough to make a normal Mystic Light Realm Sacred Lord go broke.
Miao miao!
The little thieving cat looked at Zhao Feng with begging eyes, and he obviously knew what the little thieving cat wanted. Dragon tendon was the main material needed to strengthen the dark golden dragon-snake whip, and its value easily surpassed the items that the little thieving cat just took out of the Misty Spatial World.
Zhao Feng nodded his head helplessly. The little thieving cat then picked out a large amount of resources and Primal Crystal Stones from the Misty Spatial World in order to pay the fee for the dragon tendon.
Zhao Feng was surprised. The cost was almost ten times the amount he had paid to strengthen the little thieving cat’s Shadow Kill Imperial Dagger. However, since Zhao Feng’s wealth was completely different than before, he could afford it.
Several hours later, the dark-skinned middle-aged automaton took out the dark golden dragon-snake whip from a mysterious furnace. The red glow of heat slowly faded away from the surface of the whip, and it glowed with a bright color. The dragon-snake whip seemed to be more agile than before.
Miao!
The little thieving cat grabbed it and merged a surge of silver light into it. The dark golden dragon-snake whip instantly started to move, and it twisted into a dark golden bow.
The little thieving cat aimed the dark golden long bow at Zhao Feng and gently tugged the bowstring, as if showing off to Zhao Feng.
Zhao Feng paused. The dark golden dragon-snake whip’s abilities seemed to have changed a lot.
Zhao Feng hesitated for a while before leaving the forge tower. For now, there was nothing he wanted to strengthen. Zhao Feng hadn’t even fully controlled the Sky Locking Bow yet, and the Ice Imperial Spear had reached its limit. Besides, the price of strengthening weapons and equipment would also cost Zhao Feng a lot.
“I’ll first do what I need to. If I have any money remaining, I can consider strengthening the Sky Locking Bow.” Zhao Feng planned.
After all, he didn’t know how long it would be till the next time he arrived in a Heaven’s Legacy City. Right now, he was extremely rich, and many items he had were of no use to him. It was best to just spend everything while he was here.
Zhao Feng and the little thieving cat went to the Divine Technique Palace next.
The Divine Technique Palace sold skills and techniques, and it also gave answers to cultivation problems. Zhao Feng’s Five Elemental Wind Lightning Technique and Golden Kun Sacred Lightning Body were created in the Divine Technique Palace of the other Heaven’s Legacy City.
“Guests from afar, are there any special cultivation techniques you want?” An elegant elder made of white light gave a kind smile and looked at the little thieving cat with surprise.
“I want a technique that can steal a soul-form eye,” Zhao Feng said.
The Eye of Death was a Soul-type eye just like his God Eye, and it was extremely strong. If he could use the Eye of Death wisely, Zhao Feng was willing to do so.
“From the looks of it, this guest should have obtained an inheritance relating to the Eight Great God Eyes.” A faint light flashed in the elegant elder’s eyes.
“That’s right.” Zhao Feng was secretly surprised. This elder should be just a mechanical puppet of the Divine Technique Palace, but it was actually able to guess that he had inherited an eye related to the Eight Great God Eyes. That was pretty incredible.
“Guest, there’s no need to be surprised. All of the inheritances related to the Eight Great God Eyes are soul-based. I can also feel a unique eye-bloodline aura from you.” The elegant elder made of white light smiled.
“Guest, please choose which one you want.” The elegant elder pointed, and a screen containing several techniques flashed and disappeared until only soul-based eye stealing techniques remained. The screen then moved forward until it arrived just before Zhao Feng.
“So expensive!” Zhao Feng was shocked by the prices of these secret techniques.
There was a total of eight eye-stealing techniques here, and the price for each of them was higher than the cost to strengthen the little thieving cat’s dark golden dragon-snake whip.
“Guest, all these secret techniques have strict requirements and are hard to sell. This is already the lowest price.” The elegant elder shook his head.
Even in the continent zone, not many people needed eye-stealing techniques. The elegant elder didn’t need to trick Zhao Feng.
Putting aside the fact that eye-bloodlines were already rare, most were physical-based and could be stolen just by obtaining the actual eyeball. The soul was very dangerous to mess with, so even if someone managed to obtain a soul-based eye, they wouldn’t dare to easily try a transplant.
Zhao Feng carefully read the information on the screen. He decided that, as long as it was safe and guaranteed to be successful, he wouldn’t care about the price.
“I want the Soul Eye Refining Technique.” Zhao Feng’s gaze finally landed on a certain place, and he instantly took in a deep breath after looking at the price. This would cost him almost 30% of his total wealth.
One had to know that Zhao Feng’s wealth had been accumulating since he entered the Divine Illusion Dimension and all through the Imperial Tombs. He even acquired a giant pile of treasure in the Black Wind Canyon Forbidden Ground.
Even normal Sacred Kings might not be as rich as Zhao Feng, but just one secret technique would cost Zhao Feng almost 30% of his wealth. It was hard to imagine how valuable this Soul Eye Refining Technique was.
However, if he could perfectly use the Eye of Death, then it would completely worth it.
“Guest, the Soul Eye Refining Technique is the best amongst these secret techniques.” The elder gave a bright smile and praised Zhao Feng for his good eyes, then he took out a book made of light from a nearby bookstand sealed by arrays and handed it over to Zhao Feng.
Zhao Feng suddenly remembered the incomplete Ten Thousand Divine Thoughts Technique just as he was about to leave. If he could obtain the true Ten Thousand Divine Thoughts Technique, then Zhao Feng obviously wouldn’t needlessly try to analyze it himself. Furthermore, the Ten Thousand Divine Thoughts Technique was a low-tier Heaven-grade technique, so it should be relatively cheap in a place like this.
“Do you have the Ten Thousand Divine Thoughts Technique?” Zhao Feng asked.
“I do have the Ten Thousand Divine Thoughts Technique.” The elder smiled confidently before taking out a book made of light and telling Zhao Feng his price.
“That’s far too expensive!” Zhao Feng said directly.
The price of the complete Ten Thousand Divine Thoughts Technique also surpassed the price of strengthening the little thieving cat’s dark golden dragon-snake whip. Zhao Feng didn’t understand.
“Little friend, since you know about this technique, you must know its value as well. This is a mid-tier Heaven-grade technique. The price is very fair….” The elder talked to Zhao Feng for a long time and acted like this was already the lowest price.
“Mid-tier Heaven-grade?” Zhao Feng faltered. He didn’t expect the Ten Thousand Divine Thoughts Technique to be a mid-tier Heaven-grade technique.
Back then, Duanmu Qing wasn’t sure about which grade the Ten Thousand Divine Thoughts Technique was, and he only said that it might have reached Heaven grade. If it really was a mid-tier Heaven-grade technique, the price wasn’t too high.
At the same time, Zhao Feng also remembered that the Heaven’s Legacy City he visited before was in desperate need of Primal Crystal Stones so it could continue functioning, so all of its services and goods were discounted.
On the other hand, the Heaven’s Legacy Cities within the Imperial Tombs didn’t need anything at all. Many princes and experts would enter these cities every five hundred years and spend almost all of their wealth, resulting in slow inflation.
This meant that the price in this Heaven’s Legacy City would be more expensive than the one in the Eighteen Corners Pirate Sacred Land even if the latter didn’t have a discount.
“Fine, I’ll buy it,” Zhao Feng said through gritted teeth. He then took out a large amount of wealth to buy the complete Ten Thousand Divine Thoughts Technique.
“Little friend, there’s also a subsequent skill for the Ten Thousand Divine Thoughts Technique. Do you want to have a look at it?”
Seeing Zhao Feng act in such a straightforward manner, the elder gave a faint smile and continued to sell products to Zhao Feng. Someone who wanted the top-tier techniques had finally come; he wouldn’t let Zhao Feng go so easily.
“What? A technique subsequent to the Ten Thousand Divine Thoughts Technique?” Zhao Feng stopped. He hadn’t heard his master mention such a thing before. Even though the Duanmu Family had the Ten Thousand Divine Thoughts Technique, they probably didn’t know that there was a subsequent technique.
“Yes, the creator of the Ten Thousand Divine Thoughts Technique created another soul-cultivating technique.” The elder introduced to Zhao Feng.
“Soul-cultivating technique?”
Zhao Feng started to think. He would probably be able to reach the level of ten thousand thoughts soon, so he would need a better soul-training technique.
The Ten Thousand Divine Thoughts Technique was indeed the most highly-ranked soul-cultivating technique he had seen. If there was a subsequent technique to the Ten Thousand Divine Thoughts Technique, its grade should pretty high, but Zhao Feng didn’t dare to think about the price for it.
Zhao Feng also wanted to try to learn about the other uses of his Lightning Soul Body, and soul-cultivating techniques were the most direct method. Zhao Feng couldn’t help but feel slightly tempted.
“Can you introduce the contents of it to me?”
Zhao Feng suddenly felt like he wasn’t actually that rich.
“This technique is a soul-refining technique called the Soul Splitting Technique. There’s also some other secret techniques involved, but I won’t be telling you any more information.” The elder didn’t reveal too much information, he just gave Zhao Feng a mysterious smile. At the same time, he told Zhao Feng the price for the Soul Splitting Technique.
“That seems to be very cheap.” Zhao Feng was a bit suspicious. If it was written by the same expert that created the Ten Thousand Divine Thoughts Technique, it couldn’t be too bad. However, the price was even lower than the complete Ten Thousand Divine Thoughts Technique.
At this moment, the little thieving cat threw several bronze coins into the air.
Miao miao!
The little thieving cat supported Zhao Feng in buying the Soul Splitting Technique.
“Okay, I’ll buy the Soul Splitting Technique as well then.”
