Patriarch is Taking Concubines Again!

The sect leader’s aunt gave Li Su a generous amount and intended to exchange the rest for cultivation resources.

Since the sect leader had advanced to the Fourth Layer of Nascent Soul cultivation, the resources he had previously given her had likely been used up.

Li Su assured, “Aunt, leave this matter to me. Master, please grant me some time.”

He discussed it with the sect leader and her aunt before starting his journey. Li Su wasted no time and traveled to the Central Continent, encountering many cultivators heading to the Northern Territory.

Without revealing his identity, he continued to the Returning Origin Sect. His trip was intended for purchasing items from there.

“Li Su!” Peak Master Dieyun welcomed him warmly.

“Senior, I’ve come to purchase some items.”

“Of course, you can,” Peak Master Dieyun replied cheerfully. She was willing to guide Li Su personally, as certain cultivation resources for Nascent Soul cultivators were not publicly available, and even if they were, the prices would be exorbitant.

Peak Master Dieyun planned to offer Li Su a secret discount to win his favor, enabling him to buy resources at a slightly lower price than core disciples.

With Peak Master Dieyun’s guidance, the trip proceeded smoothly. The Returning Origin Sect boasted a rich history and a wide array of cultivation resources, especially high-quality spiritual herbs and medicines, some dating back tens of thousands of years.

The sect’s herb garden, Herb Peak, was situated on one of the nine peaks and was vast, divided into numerous areas, some of which had been sealed for a long time to enhance the growth of spiritual herbs.

Li Su didn’t chase after the most potent herbs, as excess potency could lead to wastage. He thoughtfully selected items that were most suitable for his Nascent Soul cultivation.

“Why is this Spirit Ginseng still cultivating spiritual wisdom?” Li Su inquired.

“Yes, when high-grade spiritual herbs grow for an extended period, there’s a chance they develop spiritual wisdom. The advantage is they can be harvested repeatedly.”

“Alright, then I’ll take some Spirit Ginseng.”

Li Su had a productive harvest on Herb Peak, taking three days to make his selections. Peak Master Dieyun was incredibly patient, accompanying him throughout. She noticed Li Su had chosen a significant quantity of items.

Despite the quantity, Li Su wasn’t greedy. His choices were all highly beneficial for his Nascent Soul cultivation, and he didn’t select excessively rare items, as they weren’t needed.

While it might have seemed like a substantial haul, Li Su was prudent and didn’t take advantage of Peak Master Dieyun’s generosity. Peak Master Dieyun was concerned that Li Su might be unable to afford the chosen items. Despite his strength, resources and spirit stones were scarce in the Northern Territory, and even the price for core disciples was beyond their means.

These resources proved to be highly valuable for Nascent Soul cultivators in the mid to late stages, and a substantial quantity was available. However, acquiring these resources within the Returning Origin Sect would be unrealistic for someone like Bihai. He would only receive a limited supply of resources every few years, and the prices were exorbitant. Bihai had to seek resources outside of the sect.

Peak Master Dieyun was already contemplating how to assist Li Su in obtaining these resources. If Li Su’s spirit stones weren’t sufficient, she could provide a temporary loan.

“Peak Master, for these spiritual herbs, spiritual medicines, and heavenly and earthly spiritual items, the total cost comes to 2,680,872 lower-grade spirit stones. Let’s round it to 2,680,000 spirit stones,” Li Su explained.

The individual in charge of the Herb Peak was also a Nascent Soul cultivator, but he was in the early stages of Nascent Soul, an old man. His strength was likely significantly greater than that of Sun Dong.

While the Returning Origin Sect didn’t have many Nascent Soul cultivators, there were several. The three main peak masters were all powerful Nascent Soul cultivators in the later stages, and it was possible that the six junior peak masters were also in Nascent Soul, though in the early to middle stages.

Two million six hundred eighty thousand spirit stones. Moreover, these were spirit stones from the Returning Origin Sect. Converting them into the units used by the Flying Immortal Sect, they would need to be multiplied by more than twenty. These spiritual herbs and medicines were indeed quite valuable and justifiably priced. If it weren’t for Peak Master Dieyun offering ten times the spirit stones, it might not have convinced the Returning Origin Sect to sell them.

“Li Su, I can provide you with an advance payment,” Peak Master Dieyun said.

Li Su pondered for a moment and replied, “Peak Master, can we offset the cost of these herbs with a top-tier magic weapon?”

“Do you possess a top-tier magic weapon?” Peak Master Dieyun’s eyes lit up.

“No, but as long as you provide the materials, I can craft one tailored for you,” Li Su replied.

His plan was to exchange a top-tier magic weapon for the herbs because he didn’t have enough spirit stones. Even if he had received the storage pouch from the Nascent Soul stage cultivator, it only contained a few hundred thousand spirit stones. Sun Dong’s pouch contained some items, but the Elemental Magnetic Barrier’s backlash had shattered many of the spirit stones inside.
