I wish to procure a batch of Cold Iron Stone from you...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"The raw ores from the last two months have just been mined, and you came smelling them? Tell me... how much do you need?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The two were old acquaintances, so Liu Jiguang joked with a smile upon hearing this.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Chen pondered for a moment and then reported a number.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Ten thousand catties of Cold Iron Stone, can Taoist Friend Liu manage that?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ten thousand catties...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Liu Jiguang looked at Lin Chen with a hint of insight; Lin Chen had procured Cold Iron Stone before, but never as much as this.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He lowered his voice after ensuring there was no one around:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Ten thousand catties of Cold Iron Stone is no small amount... Taoist Friend, have you heard something?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Is it... related to the recent chaos caused by Tribulation Cultivators?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Clearly, as a Foundation Establishment Cultivator, Liu Jiguang was more informed than the ordinary Loose Cultivators.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However... Liu Jiguang might not have foreseen the impending great battle.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Thinking of this, Lin Chen feigned ignorance and said:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Chaos by Tribulation Cultivators? I’ve indeed heard of it... but my procurement of Cold Iron Stone is solely for Artifact Refining.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Previously purchasing in batches was too troublesome. Business in the shop has been good recently, so I might as well buy in bulk...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Liu Jiguang stroked his chin after hearing this, although he suspected Lin Chen might be hiding something from him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But he couldn’t refuse business when it came knocking...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Thus he said, \"Ten thousand catties of Cold Iron Stone, I’ll charge you three thousand Spirit Stones... How does that sound?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Chen frowned slightly upon hearing this.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This price was nearly fifty percent higher than before.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yet, considering future trends, Lin Chen still took out his Spirit Stone Bag.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"It’s a bit expensive, but still within the acceptable range...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing Lin Chen agree so readily, Liu Jiguang was even more convinced of his own speculations.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But having already spoken, Liu Jiguang still took out a Storage Bag and said:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Ten thousand catties of Cold Iron Stone, this is the output from my two mines over the past month... Taoist Friend Lin, would you like to verify?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Chen sent his Divine Sense into the Storage Bag, confirmed the amount was correct, and then placed it into the Purple Jade Gourd.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After purchasing the Cold Iron Stone, Lin Chen tentatively asked:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"My skills in Artifact Refining have recently improved a bit... Taoist Friend Liu, do you have any high-grade goods? Something with quality better than Cold Iron Stone?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Liu Jiguang’s mines were among the top shops in the Changchun Sect Marketplace.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Chen knew that if there were high-grade ores, chances were they’d be in his possession.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Upon hearing this, Liu Jiguang was taken aback, then he smiled wryly:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Taoist Friend Lin, your news is indeed accurate...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"A few days ago, I indeed mined a rare Spiritual Ore from the mountain...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After saying that, Liu Jiguang produced a fist-sized black stone.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"This stone is quite heavy... Taoist Friend Lin, be careful!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Chen took this Thousand-Year Iron Essence, and immediately felt its weight.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His face displayed a serious expression, as Lin Chen examined it closely, he asked tentatively:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Taoist Friend Liu, did you find a Thousand-Year Iron Essence mine?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Liu Jiguang nodded, \"Taoist Friend Lin is indeed well-informed... Yes, this is precisely the Thousand-Year Iron Essence!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Thousand-Year Iron Essence is not like the commonplace Cold Iron Stone.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This rare Spiritual Ore is buried deep, often in Spirit Iron Ore imbued with spirituality.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Just the handheld piece Lin Chen had weighed no less than a thousand catties!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Meanwhile, it’s also one of the key materials for crafting Treasure Artifacts.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the hands of a skilled Artifact Refiner, incorporating a small piece of Thousand-Year Iron Essence could greatly enhance the quality of Magical Treasures.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Crafting Top Grade Magical Artifacts is also achievable.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This piece of Thousand-Year Iron Essence is precisely what Lin Chen needed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Thus, he asked:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Taoist Friend Liu, how are you selling this Thousand-Year Iron Essence?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Upon hearing, Liu Jiguang stretched out a finger, signaling: \"One piece of Thousand-Year Iron Essence, one thousand Spirit Stones.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"One thousand Spirit Stones...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Chen calculated this price, it wasn’t cheap.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yet, with Blue Star’s Artifact Refining, perhaps this piece of iron essence could forge more than a dozen Top Grade Magical Artifacts.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Which, when sold onwards, would yield tenfold profit.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Thousand-Year Iron Essence comes in clusters, often more than one piece is mined. How much do you have, Taoist Friend Liu?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Not too many, not too few, exactly eight pieces, among which one is quite large... totaling no less than ten thousand catties in quantity!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With a wave of his hand, Liu Jiguang produced several more pieces of Thousand-Year Iron Essence.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Alright, Taoist Friend Liu, I’ll take all these Thousand-Year Iron Essence!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Here are ten thousand Spirit Stones, Taoist Friend, please verify?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Chen promptly took out ten thousand Spirit Stones.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing these ten thousand Spirit Stones, Liu Jiguang was somewhat uncertain.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He knew Lin’s Small Pavilion had good business.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But he was also aware of Lin Chen’s wealth; perhaps he could manage a few thousand Spirit Stones... but ten thousand Spirit Stones was surely beyond his reach.\u003C\u002Fp>",1102,"2026-06-03T10:50:41.488Z",1,"novelbin.me","7fdc5202d9b13e451e109a7ce47203e701a7dab1cb2a20346735a19c359051d1","i-can-travel-between-two-worlds-chapter-110","i-can-travel-between-two-worlds-chapter-108",422,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fi-can-travel-between-two-worlds-cover.jpg"]
