Chapter 1841: Dragon Island
For artifacts of the same tier, one top-tier item must be exchanged for at least two high-tier ones!
Two high-tier items can be exchanged for four mid-tier ones, or eight low-tier ones.
In other words, the saber 【Silent Fire】 that He Pingsheng just took is worth about one-eighth of the original top-tier flying sword.
Considering the chamber of commerce's one-fold profit margin, it should also be one-fourth.
Well, they went ahead and took a third from me.
Forget it, forget it...
The initiative is not in his own hands, so He Pingsheng has no choice.
Sometimes, when you suffer a loss, you just have to accept it.
"I also want a few divine talismans!" He Pingsheng said, looking at Elder Li.
Elder Li said: "You can choose two mid-tier divine talismans, or four low-tier ones!"
"Of course, they are all third-tier!"
"Follow me!"
The two bypassed the artifact area and arrived at the divine talisman area.
There were many talismans in the divine talisman area, which was somewhat unexpected for He Pingsheng.
But thinking about it, it was normal; this is the largest chamber of commerce in the Tianxie Royal City, containing items from the first to the sixth tier, so third-tier divine talismans shouldn't be considered anything too excessive.
It is understandable that the quantity is a bit higher.
He Pingsheng already had two defensive divine talismans, the 【Heavenly Gang Great Gold Talisman】, and one of them had already been activated, currently attached to the outside of his body.
He had no offensive talismans.
Therefore, replenishing third-tier divine talismans was also a good idea.
He Pingsheng looked around and then chose four.
Two offensive divine talismans, named 【Fire Phoenix Divine Talisman】, fire-attribute.
One speed-type divine talisman, named 【Gale Divine Talisman】, wind-attribute.
One special-type talisman, named 【Hundred-Change Divine Talisman】.
"This Hundred-Change Divine Talisman doesn't have much use!" Elder Li, standing beside him, looked at the four divine talismans he had chosen and said: "The only use for this thing is to change one's own cultivation base!"
"For example, if you are currently at the fourth layer of the Divine Imperial Realm, after activating the divine talisman, your cultivation base will change to any level below the third layer of the Divine Spirit Realm according to your wishes!"
"The duration is permanent; if you don't break it yourself, it will always be attached to your body!"
"But this thing can only deceive cultivators below the third layer of the Divine Spirit Realm. If you encounter someone above the third layer of the Divine Spirit Realm, or a peak Divine Imperial Realm cultivator with powerful spiritual sense, they will be able to see through it!"
"Generally speaking, it's quite useless; would you like to consider changing it for another one?"
Elder Li kindly reminded him.
He Pingsheng shook his head: "No need to change it, this thing might come in handy at some point in the future!"
"That will be all!"
One top-tier flying sword was exchanged for ten first-tier Three-Zhang Valleys, one third-tier saber 【Silent Fire】, and four third-tier divine talismans.
The chamber of commerce definitely made a huge profit on this trade, but for He Pingsheng, it wasn't a loss either.
Trade is all about demand.
There is no absolute loss or gain.
It's just a matter of one willing to sell and the other willing to buy.
After leaving the chamber of commerce, He Pingsheng lingered in Tianxie Royal City for a few more days, leisurely purchasing some necessary items in other chambers of commerce, and then cautiously arrived at the Royal City's Divine Ship Plaza, where he bought a boat ticket to Huaibu City.
The large ship set sail a month later.
After the divine ship set sail, He Pingsheng specifically scanned the area with his spiritual sense and discovered that the highest cultivation base on the ship was the captain, who was at the Divine Spirit Realm, and there wasn't even another Divine Spirit Realm cultivator among the rest.
He felt relieved.
Even if someone were following him, they would be nothing to worry about.
Two months later, the large ship arrived at Huaibu City.
"Senior, do you see it... that over there is Dragon Island!"
Vast and misty!
A huge lake appeared before his eyes.
He Pingsheng stood by the lake, with a Divine General Realm man standing beside him.
The man pointed at the water's surface.
He Pingsheng's gaze followed the direction of his finger, and sure enough, he saw a black dot ten thousand miles away.
He figured that black dot must be Dragon Island.
Dragon Island, the small island belonging to the Lu family that has the Chong-Armor Dragon.
"I see it!" He Pingsheng nodded.
The man continued: "This island now belongs to the Lu family. The Lu family sent people to surround the island, and any divine person is forbidden from appearing within a thousand-mile radius!"
"I know!" He Pingsheng said: "It is said that there is a Chong-Armor Dragon on the island, right?"
"Yes!" The man nodded.
He Pingsheng asked: "Do you know how long it will be until the island opens next time?"
The man said: "Senior is asking about the Lu family's Island Opening Assembly, right?"
"Hehehe..."
"It's still a long way off. About thirty-six thousand years have passed since the last island opening!"
"The Lu family's Dragon Island opens once every Yuan time period, and each opening lasts for ten years!"
"So... if Senior wants to enter the island to capture the Chong-Armor Dragon, you will still need to wait eighty-four thousand years."
Hearing this number, He Pingsheng couldn't help but twitch the muscles in his face a few times.
Good heavens, he has to wait over eighty thousand years!
But for cultivators in the Divine Realm, a few tens of thousands of years is just a snap of the fingers.
Time to go into seclusion!
This time, He Pingsheng didn't go into the city; he just found a random cave dwelling in some desolate mountain outside the city, set up a few second-tier divine arrays, and began his seclusion.
The first thing to do was to throw the items he had purchased in the chamber of commerce a while ago into the Treasure Basin.
Time to strengthen them!
After everything was done, He Pingsheng swallowed a top-tier 【Spirit-Calming Pill】 and began to refine it.
A few years later, the strengthening was complete.
First, the horizontal saber 【Silent Fire】 was strengthened to top-tier.
And it became two!
The black horizontal saber had a heart-palpitating aura flickering on it.
The four divine talismans were also strengthened.
All of them became top-tier.
He obtained a total of four offensive 【Fire Phoenix Divine Talismans】, two functional 【Gale Divine Talismans】, and two 【Hundred-Change Divine Talismans】.
Name: Fire Phoenix Divine Talisman!
Tier: Third-tier, top-tier!
Function: After activation, it can condense a fire phoenix to attack the opponent, equivalent to the power of a peak Divine Spirit Realm strike.
Name: Gale Divine Talisman!
Tier: Third-tier, top-tier!
Function: After activation, attach it to oneself to boost one's own agility and speed!
Name: Hundred-Change Divine Talisman!
Tier: Third-tier, top-tier!
Function: After activation, attach it to oneself to disguise one's own cultivation base to any level below the twelfth layer of the Divine Spirit Realm.
Looking at the three types of divine talismans in his hand, He Pingsheng smiled.
Finally, he had offensive divine talismans; when fighting, if he threw out this Fire Phoenix Divine Talisman, he could easily kill Divine Spirit Realm cultivators.
The Gale Divine Talisman could increase his own speed, which might be useful later when capturing the 【Chong-Armor Dragon】.
As for the Hundred-Change Divine Talisman?
This might seem useless, but in reality, it is not.
For He Pingsheng, it has a great use.
It is said that every time the Lu family recruits disciples to go to the island, they only want one hundred Divine Imperial Realm cultivators.
You don't need to think hard to know that they definitely prefer those with higher cultivation bases; if He Pingsheng, a guy at the fourth layer, went to apply, the Lu family probably wouldn't even give him a second glance.
So he needs to use this 【Hundred-Change Divine Talisman】 to conceal and raise his cultivation base, so he can fish in troubled waters.
Of course, the recruiter's cultivation base cannot exceed the Divine Spirit Realm; once it does, they would be able to see through He Pingsheng's hidden cultivation base.
But regardless, carrying this thing still gives him a chance.
Without the divine talisman, he wouldn't have a chance at all. ===== CHAPTER 1842 =====
