I Have Infinite Systems In The Immortal World
Chapter 258 Selling Daily Quest Items AgainChapter 258 Selling Daily Quest Items Again
Another night had passed as Long Ming woke up from his cultivation session. Wearing a casual robe, he went for a stroll in the Holy Qilin City streets.
His eyes fell on the enigmatic fried dough seller, who just set up his stalls.
" Hoho, Uncle, It seems you are pretty early today." Long Ming laughed lightly as he walked to him.
" Me? Early?" The middle aged man laughed. " I always open my stall at this time. It's you who came early today."
" Haha, Is that so?" Long Ming picked his seat, " Then I will have two servings of fried dough and a bowl of beancurd paste."
" Just a moment."
The middle aged person gave a glance to Long Ming as he started to prepare for his order.
" Well, I guess my day is going to be good." The middle aged man smiled.
" Why do you think that, Uncle?" Long Ming asked in a curious voice.
" Well, My first customer is the winner of Imperial Tourament after all."
" Ah, So uncle knows me?" Long Ming chuckled. " But this isn't fair. I don't know uncle at all."
" Haha, My name is Ma Xuzhou. My house is just nearby." Ma Xuzhou laughed. " Besides, in front of your fame, how can an ordinary person like me stand?"
" Hehe, It's just the generosity of Senior Ma. If you show your authority, very few in this Holy Qilin Empire would dare to go against you."
Ma Xuzhou's eyes narrowed as he looked at Long Ming. " Here, Your beancurd and fried doughs."
" Mm, These are pretty tasty." Long Ming munched on them with relish as he looked at Ma Xuzhou.
" Haah, I guess I am really getting old. I didn't expect someone would be able to see through my disguise. And a young brat like you." Ma Xuzhou sighed as he started to fry another batch of dough.
" Well, Senior is only half right. It's just I am too special and talented, who manage to see through your realm. I doubt there are many who have the same abilities as me."
" Oh, I like your confidence. I guess the Four Seasons Valley truly got blessed by amazing talents in this era." Ma Xuzhon sighed.
" Elder Ma, Are you affiliated to the Imperial Family?" Long Ming couldn't help but ask in a curious voice.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt" What do you think?" Ma Xuzhou glanced at Long Ming with an amusing smile.
" I feel you are affiliated to the Imperial Qin Family, but you aren't someone who has Qin Family's Bloodline." Long Ming spoke.
" Hehe, I guess your eyes are sharp after all." Ma Xuzhou nodded as he looked at the sky.
" Just say I have someone who already left his position and enjoying a bit of my old years leisurely."
" What is the age of Senior Ma?" Long Ming asked in a curious voice.
" Well, I think I just crossed the mark of a thousand years?" Ma Xuzhou spoke.
Long Ming hissed as he took a breath of deep air. " Well, I guess Elder Ma must know various secrets of the world."
" What do you want to ask, brat?"
Ma Xuzhou looked at Long Ming. He knew that Long Ming had some intentions since he approached him.
However, he felt Long Ming's personality was better than most of his peers, giving him a favorable impression.
" Sky Fountain Palace?" Ma Xuzhou was startled. " Ah, Now you say that, It seems like it's already time for it to open."
" Elder Ma knows about this place?" Long Ming was surprised.
" Of course, The Sky Fountain Palace is a mysterious realm, with no definite time of opening. In minimum, it will take a hundred years to open and it can be stretched to a thousand years."
" And guess what? It's already been a few centuries since it appeared."
" The gate of Sky Fountain Palace randomly appears between the mountain range of Eastern and Central Province."
Long Ming's face turned odd when he heard that. ' Wait, Does that mean the fragments of treasure maps everyone talking about are of Sky Fountain Palace?'
" Then, Senior Ma, do you know anything about Daoist Hong Luo?"
" Hong Luo? You can't be talking about Sanguine Monarch Hong Luo, right?" Ma Xuzhou was startled. " But then, it's rumored that he left his inheritance inside the Sky Fountain Palace. So, might be talking about him."
' I guess I was right! But then… Why that figure inside the jade fragment warn me against the inheritance of Hong Luo? Is there something I don't know?'
" Elder Ma, If you have any information, Can you give it to me?" Long Ming asked expectantly.
" Well, I do…But should I tell you?" Ma Xuzhou chuckled.
" I have already talked enough with you. An ordinary man like me can't know many things about ancient cultivators."
' What's with this bastard?'
Long Ming's face turned sour when he heard Ma Xuzhou. However, he already revealed a lot, and getting the remaining information would be pretty easy.
[ Ding! Daily Quest has arrived! Hos received 5000 drops of Flame Spirit Blood]
[ Flame Spirit Blood: It's not the blood of any beast, the condensation of natural spiritual flame with Flame Dragon Ores. It can be used to empower the flame during forging or can be used in pill refinement]
[Time limit: One day]
[ Reward: 4000 Credits]
[ Failure: -4000 Credits]
Long Ming clicked his tongue when he saw the impressive reward of 4000 Credits. However, looking at the description of the Flame Spirit Blood drops, Long Ming felt he wouldn't be able to use it as quickly as the previous items.
' Well, If I can't use them, I will just sell them.' Long Ming thought inwardly.
Suddenly, turning around, he looked at Ma Xuzhou. Since he is already a powerful Nine Transformation of Soul Realm cultivator, he probably has a lot of treasures, right?
" Elder Ma, Do you want to have a deal with me?" Long Ming spoke with a smile, almost giving goosebumps to Ma Xuzhou
" What is it?"
" Do you know anything about Flame Spirit Blood?"
" Flame Spirit Blood? Do you have it?"
Long Ming suddenly felt a shift in the atmosphere, like the calm and easygoing demeanor of Ma Xuzhou changed instantly. However, the Desolate Immortal Aura and Immovable Heart of Long Ming didn't make him feel anything.
" Ah, Forgive me. I just got a bit…Absent minded." Ma Xuzhou realized what he had just done as he apologized.
However, he was also amazed by Long Ming's resilience. After all, an aura of Nine Transformation of Soul Realm cultivator can even make a Harmonization Realm cultivator bend on his knees.
Yet, Long Ming stood calm and composed, as if he just felt a light breeze.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm" It's alright, Elder Ma. I have quite a lot…Like…5000 drops."
" What? 5000 drops?!"
Ma Xuzhou almost jumped when he heard the amount of Flame Spirit Blood Long Ming had.
" Are you trying to trick me?" Ma Xuzhou couldn't help but frown.
" Haha, Elder Ma, do I look like someone with a death wish?" Long Ming chuckled. " As I said, It's a trade. I give you the drops and you shall give me something of equal value."
" 5000 drops are…a bit too much." Ma Xuzhou frowned. " But it's also alright. I do need a lot of Flame Spirit Blood."
" How about this? I have a Royal grade soul technique. Along with it, I can give you the demonic core and spirit blood of a Demon King."
" Hmm, These sounds very good. However, I think Elder Ma should add something extra. You know…Goodwill towards the younger generation?"
" Brat, You are going too far." Ma Xuzhou looked at Long Ming with a gaze of contempt.
" Well…" Long Ming shrugged. " I don't think anyone has as much as Flame Spirit Blood as I have right now. So, Elder Ma should think carefully."
" Damned brat…" Ma Xuzhou sighed as he pondered for a moment. " How about… A treasure map?"
" Of Sky Fountain Palace?" Long Ming looked at him.
" No, But something in the Westward Bay." Ma Xuzhou shrugged. " Actually, I never verified the authenticity of the treasure map, but I believe it's genuine."
" You want to give me a treasure map that might be fake?" Long Ming became speechless.
" Take it or leave."
" Fine…I guess it can work." Long Ming sighed as he nodded. When Ma Xuzhou saw the five thousand drops of Flame Spirit Blood, his eyes quivered with exciement.
" Haha, fucking hell! To think I would get so much Flame Spirit Blood…And they are so pure!" Ma Xuzhou laughed out loud.
" Well, I hope Elder Ma would keep guiding me in future." Long Ming cupped his fist as he turned around to leave.
" Wait for a moment." Ma Xuzhou called Long Ming, making him stop.
Taking out a few thick books, he handed it to Long Ming. " Judging from your look, you are very inexperienced. You should use your youth to explore various things across the world."
Glancing at the book titles, Long Ming's eyes shone.
" Haha, I shall keep that in mind, Elder Ma."
