My Sword Intent Can Be Infinitely Improved

Chapter 162 - 162: Starry Bazaar (3)

Translator: Daoist6fubtiW

The so-called resource blockade, where human cultivators buy cultivation resources from non-human cultivators at more than ten times the price, isn’t it a joke?

Not quite…

Su Yang keenly sensed a problem.

He tentatively inquired, “How much World Origin do I need to pay for a drop of Nascent Soul Fluid?”

The stall owner grinned and said, “Here, we offer the normal price for humans.”

Before Su Yang could ask what the normal human price was, the stall owner produced a sign.

[Human cultivators only need to pay ten times the original price when buying, absolutely not exceeding ten times. Welcome human cultivators to make a purchase.]

Su Yang’s face darkened immediately, “So, I want to purchase a drop of low-grade Nascent Soul Fluid, and it costs one strand of Galaxy Origin?”

The stall owner smiled and said, “That’s right. The things here, when sold to human cultivators, are strictly ten times the price, no additional markup.

Friend, take your time to see what you need.”

Wow, this is just daylight robbery, isn’t it?

No wonder these stall owners are so welcoming to human cultivators.

The same items, sold to other non-human races, are at regular prices.

Sold to human cultivators, the price is inflated by ten times. It’s blatant profiteering, and who wouldn’t be welcoming?

And judging by the stall owner’s attitude, it’s a rather fair price, isn’t it?

Suppressing his displeasure, Su Yang thought that perhaps from the stall owner’s perspective, this was indeed a normal price.

“I’d like to ask, will human cultivators actually buy at ten times the price?”

Hearing Su Yang’s question, the other party seemed to have thought of something.

However, the stall owner didn’t have any other thoughts and explained directly, “Yes.”

“It seems, my friend, you still don’t fully understand the situation of your human race.”

Because in this Starry Bazaar, everyone is just a strand of soul entering it, and no one can tell the others’ cultivation level.

So, at first, no one can tell each other’s background.

You can only learn a bit from the stalls and some conversations.

“So, let me explain. Currently, your human race controls very, very few resource points, barely enough for internal consumption within a single force.”

“For example, we, the other races, can control up to ten or fewer resource points with a small city. These resource points are used for the cultivation of cultivators above the Nascent Soul stage.”

“For example, this Nascent Soul Fluid is born from resource points.”

“But for your human race, even a small city may not be able to control a single resource point.”

“A medium-sized human city might control around ten resource points.”

“But for us, other races, a medium-sized city can control around a hundred resource points. That’s the difference.”

“As for the reason… I think you should be aware. I won’t say much about it.” “So, human cultivators don’t have enough internal resources for cultivation, so they have to buy from us.”

“Galaxy Origin, this kind of thing, is a regular and hard-to-find resource, easily accessible to humans.”

“Those races that are against your human race can prevent you from accessing even Galaxy Origin.”

“Otherwise, there would be no human cultivators coming to trade.”

“Although I sympathize with your human race’s situation, I can’t do much because of the agreement with the other races.”

The stall owner clearly belongs to the type of race that doesn’t have much hostility towards the human race.

Although Su Yang couldn’t see any sympathy on the guy’s face, he knew that even if the stall owner didn’t target the human race, he still benefited from the agreement with the other races. There’s no reason for him not to be happy.

Not attacking while the enemy is down, that’s already pretty good.

Moreover, the other party had just given him a detailed explanation of the reasons behind it.

The reason… probably has to do with the cosmic war, where some races targeted the human race.

The human race’s resource points were besieged and plundered, and they had to defend a resource point with more power than the others, much more power…

Understanding the reasons clearly, Su Yang felt much heavier about the human race’s current situation.

Just after he was about to leave.

A human cultivator appeared at a stall ahead, buying a special material at thirteen times the regular price.

At this point, Su Yang’s interest was piqued.

Change isn’t about what he says but what he does.

So, why not give it a try?

See if he can change the human race’s situation…

With a single thought, Su Yang left the Starry Bazaar.

Once again, he returned to the Evil Spirit Nest.

He stored the Starry Bazaar Token in his storage ring.

If he needs to enter, he can do so at any time.

As for the things in this Evil Spirit Nest, he had basically cleaned up.

In these source nodes covered by impure Qi, they would no longer generate Galaxy Origin.

Only source evil spirits would be born.

But even if it were a normal source node, Su Yang temporarily couldn’t deal with it.

To directly get the Galaxy Origin generated from a source node using sword tactics, he needed two fixed points.

One fixed point is the source node.

The other fixed point must be a safe place, a place where he can store resources with confidence.

Ideally, he should be able to build a city in the Galaxy Origin place..
