Chapter 1994: Life-Death Dao Token

"What quality would you like?" the woman looked at He Pingsheng.

He Pingsheng said: "Tell me all of them!"

"Alright!" The woman took out a jade slip, then swept her Divine Sense into it.

It seemed she didn't remember the value of everything either; she was checking temporarily!

After looking for a while, she put away the jade slip and said: "Senior, inferior-grade Heavenly Heart Shuang Shen Dan is one hundred twenty pieces of inferior-grade Divine Gold per furnace!"

"Mid-grade is more expensive, two hundred fifty pieces of Divine Gold per furnace!"

"Superior-grade is eight hundred pieces of Divine Gold per furnace, however... superior-grade cannot be supplied in large quantities, only small amounts, and right now there's no guarantee of stock either!"

He Pingsheng could understand this point.

After all, superior-grade pills of this type have extremely low yield, and many alchemists keep them for themselves instead of selling to the Chamber of Commerce; even if sold to the Chamber of Commerce, they'd be snatched up immediately.

As for supreme-grade!

That goes without saying.

You simply cannot see them on the market.

"Meaning, if I want inferior-grade, it can be supplied in large quantities, right?" He Pingsheng asked.

The woman nodded: "Yes... inferior-grade can be supplied in large quantities. How many do you need?"

He Pingsheng calculated slightly in his heart, then said: "First give me one thousand furnaces!"

This thing consumes ten furnaces per Yuan of time; one thousand furnaces, even if ultimately strengthened to two thousand furnaces, would only be enough for He Pingsheng's use for one hundred Yuan of time.

Hmm...

One thousand furnaces seemed still not quite enough.

So He Pingsheng thought for a moment, then said: "One thousand won't do, five thousand then!"

"This many, do you have them?" He looked at the woman worriedly.

The woman smiled: "We do, Senior. This isn't considered much!"

"Some families purchase tens of thousands of furnaces at once!"

"Your five thousand furnaces, I can prepare the stock for you right now. Hmm... that comes to six hundred thousand inferior-grade Divine Gold total!"

"No rush!" He Pingsheng waved his hand and said: "I also want some third-tier Ping Shen Dan!"

"That's not important. Also, I need some fourth-grade Divine Talisman Paper!"

He Pingsheng bought several hundred sheets of fourth-grade Divine Talisman Paper in one go, along with some talisman ink and talisman brushes.

After purchasing, he didn't leave immediately, but started wandering around this fourth floor.

However, he didn't see anything good on the fourth floor.

Since He Pingsheng also possessed the qualifications to go to the fifth floor, he had this woman take him up to the fifth floor for a look around.

On the fifth floor, all were fifth-grade Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures.

"Huh..." He Pingsheng's brows furrowed slightly as he stared at a certain item: "This... how is it fourth-grade?"

He saw a black token, circular, looking like a jade tablet made of black jade.

This jade tablet was placed alone in a display case, with an introduction beside it.

Item: Life-Death Dao Token.

Grade: Fourth-grade!

Just that introduction, and then nothing more.

"Hehe..." The woman smiled and said: "Senior... although this Life-Death Dao Token is only fourth-grade, its value is equivalent to fifth-grade Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures, so it was placed on the fifth floor!"

He Pingsheng asked: "Life-Death Dao Token, what is this thing, what use does it have?"

The woman said: "Life-Death Dao Token is a type of divine object. After refining and fusing it into oneself, it can block a sure-death strike at a critical moment!"

"Thus it can serve as a substitute-death function!"

"This object isn't considered rare in the Divine Realm, however refining and fusing requires Dao Laws as support; ordinarily only those at the Divine Monarch realm can use it!"

He Pingsheng's pupils shrank slightly: Good fellow!

A substitute-death token!

Back then Lian Nihong died once, then was reborn.

Could it be she used this very object?

"What price? I'll buy one?" He Pingsheng's voice even trembled a little.

However, the woman said: "Senior, you are merely at the Divine Spirit realm; you cannot fuse it!"

"During the fusion process of this object, Dao Laws are needed as support!"

He Pingsheng waved his hand and said: "That's not for you to worry about. You just need to tell me the value!"

"Alright!" The woman said, "This one is five thousand Divine Gold... and it's mid-grade Divine Gold!"

"If inferior-grade, you'd need fifty million talisman-making..."

He Pingsheng directly took out fifty thousand mid-grade Divine Gold and said: "Give me ten..."

The woman:..........

"Senior... this..."

"This object has a one-sided affinity attribute. Buying more is useless; no matter how many more you buy you can only use one. And... your current cultivation really cannot use it!"

He Pingsheng said: "Hehehe... thanks for the reminder..."

"But I'm not using them myself!"

"I'll buy some to give to our clan elders for use later!"

"Oh..." The woman said, "So that's how it is!"

"That was me overthinking it!"

"Young Master, please come this way; I'll notify the warehouse to fetch your goods!"

……

Half an incense stick later, He Pingsheng left the Xuanji Chamber of Commerce with a satisfied smile.

It seemed like a huge expenditure, but in the Chamber of Commerce's view, it was nothing out of the ordinary.

After all, if a God King Realm or God Emperor Realm deity came over, even casually buying an ordinary item would cost tens of thousands of times what He Pingsheng spent.

After obtaining the items, He Pingsheng did not leave immediately, but wandered around the vicinity instead!

He discovered that not far from the Xuanji Chamber of Commerce, a tavern had actually opened.

The wine fragrance was rich and mellow.

Outside the not-large small tavern, a long queue had surprisingly formed.

He Pingsheng opened his Void-Piercing True Eyes and was shocked to discover that those queuing here included not only God Control Realm and God General Realm experts, but even God Venerable Realm mighty figures.

Heh……

This wine should be extraordinary, right?

Let me have a taste!

He Pingsheng also queued up at the back.

After queuing for about half a double-hour, he finally entered this small shop.

He originally thought this tavern's specialty was some kind of wine brew, but after entering, He Pingsheng discovered it was not a wine brew.

It was a kind of fish!

Its name was 【Broad Bean Fish】.

This fish's name was ordinary, and the fish was also ordinary.

Throughout the entire Divine Realm, in rivers, lakes, and seas, they could be seen everywhere; most were God General Realm demonic beasts, existences unable to condense a Godhead.

Moreover, few people ate this thing.

But here was different.

There was an expert in this tavern who actually made the utterly ordinary Broad Bean Fish incomparably delicious, causing these deities who subsisted on divine power and immortal dew to involuntarily work up a huge appetite.

He Pingsheng had not eaten anything for a very long time.

He took a bite, and sure enough, it was a taste bud explosion.

Delicious to the extreme.

"Not bad……" He Pingsheng nodded while eating: "It is a rare delicacy!"

"Right?" Opposite He Pingsheng, a chubby God Spirit Realm deity chimed in: "This fish is truly ordinary, but the cooking is truly delicious!"

"Delicious, so delicious……"

"One more time before entering the Absolute Ground, who knows if we'll even be able to come back!"

"Spoken well, I mean the same!" Not far from the little fatty, a middle-aged man nodded: "This old man is going in too!"

In an instant, quite a few people responded!

Only then did He Pingsheng stare in shock: So everyone queuing here today is here to eat a last meal before death?

Absolute Ground?

What Absolute Ground?

Wait……

He Pingsheng suddenly recalled a matter.

A very, very long time ago, Lian Nihong once mentioned a matter, saying her father had once come to the Xuanji Divine Kingdom, and in the Xuanji Divine Kingdom's 【Collapsed Dao Fallen Yellow】 Absolute Ground, found two treasure fragments containing Hongmeng Purple Qi.

Could it be, it's this Absolute Ground?
