Chapter 625: Agreement

Meeting Cen Zhe's gaze.

The many Mahayana realm powerhouses in the great hall fell into deep thought, weighing the pros and cons in their hearts.

After pondering for a moment, Master Lingxiao looked at Cen Zhe and spoke slowly:

"Fellow Daoist Cen Zhe, you should be clear in your heart that it is impossible for us to agree to all the demands you have put forward."

"You had better not make things difficult for everyone; you should propose some reasonable demands instead!"

Other things were fine; it would not be difficult for the major forces within the Di Xuan Realm Alliance to pool together these rewards.

But heavenly materials and earthly treasures capable of deriving spiritual roots are rare even among the major hegemon-level forces of the Di Xuan Realm.

Even if such treasures appeared, they would be consumed in a short time, and there was basically rarely any stock.

As for the Innate Source Trees that nurture such treasures, even if some of the sects present possessed them, they would absolutely not take them out for trade.

Moreover, the rewards given needed to be borne by everyone together.

If more than thirty percent of the people in the great hall were unwilling to give so many rewards, even if Master Lingxiao agreed, there would be nothing he could do.

Cen Zhe naturally knew this point as well.

Therefore, after Master Lingxiao spoke, Cen Zhe thought for a while and then relented:

"Master Lingxiao, why don't you all state the rewards you are willing to give first!"

"However, if your offer is too low, then there will be no need for us to talk further."

Seeing that Cen Zhe was willing to relent, Master Lingxiao nodded slightly and looked at the other Mahayana realm powerhouses in the great hall.

Not long after, dozens of spiritual senses began to communicate with each other in the great hall.

Detecting the subtle fluctuations of dozens of spiritual senses suddenly appearing in the hall, Cen Zhe glanced at everyone without saying much.

Not making Cen Zhe wait long, after the time it takes to drink half a cup of tea, Master Lingxiao looked at Cen Zhe again and spoke:

"Fellow Daoist Cen Zhe, does the reward you are applying for from the Alliance this time include the price for a one-time buyout of the Blessed Cultivation inheritance created by your disciple, or is it just a reward for your disciple creating a new Blessed Cultivation Dao?"

Upon hearing this, Cen Zhe responded directly without even thinking:

"What I am applying for from the Alliance this time is naturally just the reward for my disciple creating the new Blessed Cultivation Dao."

"If the rewards given by the Alliance satisfy us, we are willing to place the new Blessed Cultivation inheritance in the Alliance's inheritance treasury for external sale."

"Otherwise, we are prepared to only pass it down within the Xuantian Sect."

Hearing this slightly threatening remark from Cen Zhe, Master Lingxiao could only smile helplessly, shake his head slightly, and say:

"Since that is the case, then I and the fellow daoists cannot be willing to pay too high a price."

"According to the discussions between myself and the fellow daoists."

"If it is just a simple reward, the Alliance can give at most 100,000 strands of Eighth-Order Five-Element Essence, 5,000 strands of Ninth-Order Five-Element Essence, 500 strands of Tenth-Order Five-Element Essence, and 3,000 Supreme Grade Spirit Crystals, or other equivalent heavenly materials and earthly treasures."

Having said this, Master Lingxiao paused for a moment, then spoke again with a smile:

"Of course, if Fellow Daoist Cen Zhe is willing to let us buy out the Blessed Cultivation inheritance created by your disciple in one go."

"Then the Alliance can give one Dark Source Fruit that derives a dark-attribute spiritual root, one Supreme Grade Magic Treasure, and the Five-Element Essence and Supreme Grade Spirit Crystals can also be given according to Fellow Daoist Cen Zhe's previous proposal."

"I wonder, what does Fellow Daoist Cen Zhe think?"

If paying these costs could buy out the new Blessed Cultivation inheritance in one go, the major forces within the Di Xuan Realm Alliance would naturally be extremely happy.

After all, when these things are distributed proportionally to the major forces present, it is actually not too much for them.

Compared to a simple reward, they would rather buy it out in one go.

However, when Cen Zhe heard the conditions given by everyone, he frowned directly and said with dissatisfaction:

"No, this reward is too little."

"100,000 strands of Eighth-Order Five-Element Essence, 30,000 strands of Ninth-Order Five-Element Essence, 3,000 strands of Tenth-Order Five-Element Essence, and 30,000 Supreme Grade Spirit Crystals—these cannot be less."

"We can do without the Supreme Grade Magic Treasure, but there must be at least two heavenly materials and earthly treasures capable of increasing the four major attribute spiritual roots of Yin, Yang, Light, and Dark."

As for the Innate Source Tree that can nurture such treasures, Cen Zhe did not mention it again, because he knew that the representatives of the major forces in the great hall would not agree.

Looking at Cen Zhe's dissatisfied appearance, this time before Master Lingxiao could speak, some Mahayana realm powerhouses in the great hall with fiery tempers could not help but retort: "No, if it is just a reward, it is impossible for us to pay such a high price."

"Fellow Daoist Wang is right. A Ninth-Order Spirit Vein can only condense about ten Supreme Grade Spirit Crystals in a hundred years. You ask for 30,000 Supreme Grade Spirit Crystals in one breath? We cannot agree."

"Exactly. Besides, 3,000 strands of Tenth-Order Five-Element Essence could assist me in cultivating a small divine ability related to the Five Elements to the Perfect Realm. You are asking for too much."

"Fellow Daoist Cen Zhe, if it is just a reward, these things are indeed asking for a bit too much. You should think about it again!"

"Not bad. Unless the price of this newly created Blessed Cultivation inheritance can be set below 100,000 Alliance Contribution Points, we might consider agreeing to Fellow Daoist Cen Zhe's request."

Once these words were spoken, the great hall instantly fell silent, and the gazes of many Mahayana realm powerhouses turned to Cen Zhe in unison.

If the pricing of this newly created Blessed Cultivation inheritance was really set below 100,000 Alliance Contribution Points, then for them, it would be about the same as a one-time buyout.

In this way, they could naturally reluctantly agree to Cen Zhe's request.

"Hehe, 100,000 Alliance Contribution Points? You all really dare to think?"

Meeting everyone's gaze, Cen Zhe was completely unafraid and responded with a cold laugh directly.

"To tell you the truth, for the Blessed Cultivation inheritance created by my disciple this time, if it is a single-person inheritance for one time, the price is 100 million Alliance Contribution Points."

"If a force exchanges for it and passes it down permanently internally, the price is 10 billion Alliance Contribution Points, plus ten Supreme Grade Spirit Crystals."

"However, the Blessed Cultivation secret technique in the Blessed Cultivation inheritance that can condense source seeds can be announced for free throughout the entire Di Xuan Realm."

"Moreover, the three paths of Blessed Cultivation, as well as other branch inheritances within the Blessed Cultivation inheritance, can all be split into different inheritances for exchange, and the prices can be re-priced according to the different values of the inheritances."

"As for the specific minor details, we will talk about them when the time comes."

One Alliance Contribution Point is approximately equal to one Lower Grade Spirit Stone, so 100 million Alliance Contribution Points is just one Supreme Grade Spirit Crystal.

The Alliance Contribution Points priced by Cen Zhe were so that Ye Qingxuan would have sufficient contribution points to exchange for various heavenly materials and earthly treasures in the Alliance treasury in the future.

And the extra Supreme Grade Spirit Crystals were to ensure that Ye Qingxuan would have a continuous source of Supreme Grade Spirit Crystals.

One must know that even among the major hegemon-level forces, the stock of Supreme Grade Spirit Crystals that can be used daily is not much.

With Tenth-Order Spirit Veins, although the Supreme Grade Spirit Crystals obtained by the major hegemon-level forces every year are not few, their consumption in all aspects is also great. Most importantly, a portion of the Supreme Grade Spirit Crystals obtained by the major hegemon-level forces needs to be sealed as the foundation for driving the revival of Immortal Artifacts, and cannot be easily used.

Therefore, in non-essential situations, the major hegemon-level forces basically will not use Supreme Grade Spirit Crystals for trading.

As for why the price of this Blessed Cultivation inheritance was set so high this time?

That is because this time is different from the last time.

The last time the Blessed Cultivation inheritance was promoted, the pricing was extremely low because the threshold for the Blessed Cultivation inheritance was too low.

As long as it was promoted, all the new generation cultivators in the Di Xuan Realm could basically cultivate the previous Blessed Cultivation Dao.

But the Blessed Cultivation Dao created by Ye Qingxuan requires source seeds to enter.

And the previous Blessed Cultivation inheritance in the Di Xuan Realm had only just been promoted for a short time.

Except for the major hegemon-level forces, other large and small forces basically only had First-Order Blessed Cultivators who controlled one First-Order Dongxuan Fudi for the time being.

With the control of First-Order Blessed Cultivators over Blessed Lands, as well as the difficulty of comprehending Blessed Cultivation secret techniques, they, who had just become Blessed Cultivators not long ago, basically could not condense Dongxuan Fudi source seeds.

Added to this, for most people who lack talent and do not have sufficient resource supply, the Blessed Cultivation·Heaven and Earth Dao is a path more suitable for them.

But Blessed Cultivation·Heaven and Earth Dao, besides Dongxuan Fudi source seeds, must also have Cave Heaven source seeds.

If there are no matching Dongxuan Fudi source seeds and Cave Heaven source seeds.

Simply promoting the Blessed Cultivation inheritance actually does not have much significance for most forces and cultivators in the Di Xuan Realm.

And according to the current progress, for a long time to come, source seeds will be in short supply in the Di Xuan Realm, and will not even flow out of the top forces of the Di Xuan Realm.

Therefore, if the newly created Blessed Cultivation inheritance is priced too low, it is actually dispensable for the middle and lower-level forces and those loose cultivators in the Di Xuan Realm.

In the end, it will only benefit those major forces in the Di Xuan Realm that are qualified to compete for the distribution of source seeds.

Since that is the case, Cen Zhe might as well set the pricing of the newly created Blessed Cultivation inheritance to a price that matches the value of the inheritance itself, to seek more benefits for his disciple.

If it weren't for the lack of source seeds, even if only some of the top major forces in the Di Xuan Realm exchanged for the new Blessed Cultivation inheritance and could not meet the matching source seeds for the time being, Cen Zhe would even want to increase this pricing tenfold.

In Cen Zhe's view, the Blessed Cultivation Dao created by his disciple Ye Qingxuan is worthy of this selling price.

If it weren't for the overall situation of the Di Xuan Realm, Cen Zhe would even be reluctant to spread the inheritance of this new Blessed Cultivation Dao.

Hearing the pricing mentioned by Cen Zhe.

Many Mahayana realm powerhouses in the great hall opened their mouths slightly, but in the end, they did not say anything.

Because they also knew in their hearts that for this newly created Blessed Cultivation Dao inheritance, this pricing was actually not expensive for the inheritance itself.

For a time, the great hall fell into a silence.

In the end, it was Master Lingxiao who communicated with everyone secretly for a while again before looking at Cen Zhe and speaking:

"Fellow Daoist Cen Zhe, everyone can accept this pricing, but for the source seeds required for the new Blessed Cultivation Dao to enter, I wonder how many you can provide?"

The most critical thing is the Cave Heaven source seeds.

As for Dongxuan Fudi source seeds, for the major hegemon-level forces that make up the majority present, after obtaining the inheritance, letting the Blessed Cultivator disciples in their sects condense source seeds is just a matter of time.

But to exert the full effect of the newly created Blessed Cultivation Dao, they must obtain the initial Cave Heaven source seeds.

"The initial source seeds will be provided by my disciple Ye Qingxuan, but let's make it clear first, these source seeds are not free."

"As for now, let's settle the rewards for my disciple first, and then talk about the source seeds!"

"Otherwise, there will be no point in talking further."

Looking at Cen Zhe, who was very tough and full of confidence, many Mahayana realm powerhouses in the great hall felt it was tricky and also had thoughts of making concessions in their hearts.

However, they could not agree to all the demands Cen Zhe put forward; they still needed to bargain a bit.

And Cen Zhe, who already felt it was about enough, also had similar thoughts in his heart; he could not really just leave directly and give up the idea of selling the Blessed Cultivation inheritance.

After all, compared to the rewards, the proceeds from selling the Blessed Cultivation inheritance and source seeds were actually the real bulk.

So, with both sides making concessions, after a period of negotiation, the rewards bestowed upon Ye Qingxuan by the Alliance were finally settled: "100,000 strands of Eighth-Order Five-Element Essence, 10,000 strands of Ninth-Order Five-Element Essence, 1,000 strands of Tenth-Order Five-Element Essence, and 3,000 Supreme Grade Spirit Crystals, plus one Dark Source Fruit that can help cultivators derive dark-attribute spiritual roots."

Other rewards were fine, but being able to secure one Dark Source Fruit for his disciple, Cen Zhe was still very satisfied in his heart.

After the final rewards were settled, the many Mahayana realm cultivators in the great hall also subconsciously breathed a sigh of relief in their hearts.

Actually, these rewards distributed down did not matter to them, but Cen Zhe was too difficult to deal with, and letting Cen Zhe take too much advantage would make them feel very unhappy.

Looking at the satisfied Cen Zhe, the somewhat impatient Sect Master of the Tianyuan Sect, Wang Hearing Dao Xuan, could not help but urge:

"Sect Master Cen, how many source seeds can your disciple actually take out? Can you say it now?"

Regarding Wang Hearing Dao Xuan's impatience, Cen Zhe did not care. Having already discussed it with Ye Qingxuan, he responded directly:

"My disciple can take out a total of: 30 each of Fifth-Order Cave Heaven source seeds and Dongxuan Fudi source seeds.

100 each of Fourth-Order Cave Heaven source seeds and Dongxuan Fudi source seeds.

300 each of Third-Order Cave Heaven source seeds and Dongxuan Fudi source seeds.

1,200 each of Second-Order Cave Heaven source seeds and Dongxuan Fudi source seeds.

3,000 each of First-Order Cave Heaven source seeds and Dongxuan Fudi source seeds."

The source seeds Cen Zhe mentioned were only about two-thirds of what Ye Qingxuan gave him.

The remaining source seeds, Cen Zhe was prepared to leave for the Xuantian Sect, to be compensated to Ye Qingxuan by the Xuantian Sect according to the auction transaction price at that time.

"Regarding the distribution of these source seeds, I plan to hold a source seed auction within the Alliance at that time."

"Because the number of the first batch of initial source seeds is too small, only forces above the Void Meditation level are qualified to participate in the source seed auction."

"However, in order to avoid hurting everyone's harmony during the auction and also to allow other top forces in the Di Xuan Realm to have some gains, everyone present needs to divide the auctionable quota in advance."

"Once the quota for auctioning source seeds is used up, one cannot compete with other forces or participate in the auction of the remaining source seeds."

"And after the auction ends, my disciple will only accept various resources from the Qingmo Realm and the corpses of the Qingmo tribe as settlement currency."
