Against The Gods
Chapter 58 — Fake Bravado

...Chapter 58 – Fake Bravado...

There was a thirty-year-old man standing behind a table inside the Black Moon Merchant Guild. Although Yun Che had entered with this strange disguise, he simply glanced at her and asked: "Buy or sell?"

Yun Che went straight to the point; raising his right hand to put three deep red colored pills on the table, he coldly said, "Three Fire Spirit Pills, make an offer!"

These three Fire Spirit Pills were made by purifying the Spirit Fire Grass that Yun Che had collected from the Fire Dragon cave.

"Fire Spirit Pill?" The clerk's stiff face finally made a small expression as he took one of the pills and lightly stroked it. Suddenly, his complexion changed and could barely let out his voice: "Ten ... Ten rank Fire Spirit Pills !!"

In order to synthesize a medicinal pill, he had to pass through the harvesting of the necessary materials, look through storage, choose the right refining tool, proper heat control, and essential refining skills. So it was normal for the potency of the medicinal strength to decrease during this entire process. During the refining process, even for high-level pharmacists, it was practically impossible to avoid losing a portion of the medicinal strength. Therefore, pills of the sixth rank were already considered top grade items. Pills with a seventh or eighth rank were rare and were already considered to be of the highest quality. A reputable apothecary belonging to one of the major sects might be able to produce a pill of the ninth rank, but it would be considered an incomparable item. As for the tenth rank pill, even for a first level apothecary, to find one would be one in ten thousand.

The higher the potency of the medicinal pill, the higher the price, and the faster the body can purify it naturally. The price of an eight rank pill would be twice the price of a seventh rank pill. But for a ninth rank pill, it was almost impossible to find in the market. These were usually kept by the main sect to use for their core disciples or used to offer tribute. As for the tenth rank pill, it was also rarely seen even in the Black Merchant Union of the Moon Sky Continent.

If it was only one pill that was tenth rank, it would be nothing, but the attendant stared wide-eyed as he realized that the three Fire Spirit Pills were of the tenth rank. The Spirit Fire Grass was already hard to find, but it was also extremely difficult to refine it into a Fire Spirit Pill. Regarding his tenth rank, he had never heard of one before. He could only imagine what would happen if a Great Practitioner practicing in the art of fire directed their eyes at these three Fire Spirit Pills; they would most likely covet with eyes popping.

"Make an offer!" Yun Che coldly said again.

The attendant finally picked it up and quickly took out a black wooden box and placed three Spirit Fire Pills into it to prevent the medicinal energy from spreading. His expression was now a little more respectful as he faced Yun Che ….

These were the three Fire Spirit Pills of the tenth rank and were actually taken out to be sold for money! The Black Moon Merchant Guild usually had an arrogant attitude, but anyone would be able to tell that this person was obviously very important. The attendant politely said: "The three Fire Spirit Pills of this tenth rank are the best of the best, because for the price … I'll give you each one a hundred deep purple coins; therefore, what about a total of three hundred profound purple coins? ”

"…" Yun Che was silent for a while.

As Yun Che was silent for quite some time, the attendant began to panic in fear. He carefully watched the situation; if the price was not satisfactory, he would not hesitate to raise it. These three Fire Spirit Pills were of the tenth rank, each of them would without a doubt obtain a sky-high price if sold to one of the main sects of the Profound Sky Continent practiced in the fire attribute.

How could he know Yun Che was silent not because of the low-ball offer.

Three hundred profound purple coins .. Nonsense !! That was a total of three million profound yellow coins !! That equates to a century of income from an average family!

In the Azure Cloud Continent, the moment he followed his master around, his master refined medicines to save lives and never once did he charge a single coin. After the death of his master, he had only used the Sky Poison Pearl to refine medicinal pills for himself in order to increase his strength; therefore, he had only used the Sky Poison Pearl to refine medicinal pills for himself in order to increase his strength; hence, it was, he had no concept of the actual market price or value of any medicinal pill.

He originally thought selling the Spirit Fire Pill for one deep purple coin was already good enough. After selling three, he would have enough money to live a luxurious life for a while. But he never expected to be offered three hundred deep purple coins; he was stunned.

This medicinal pill was unexpectedly extremely precious !!

In the Great Sky Continent, a good medicinal pill was extremely expensive. Because high-tier medicinal pills were used for Profound Cultivation; it was a shortcut to increasing one's Profound Energy. Many years of painstaking cultivation could not compare to just being able to take medicinal pills.

His constant silence made the attendant nervously state, "If you are still dissatisfied with the price, then …"

Even before letting it finish, Yun Che exclaimed: "Deal!"

In order for his offer to be accepted immediately, the shopkeeper could not hide his excitement; for even if one were to be priced to sell for a thousand deep purple coins, any large sect would easily fight over it. He quickly gathered the Fire Spirit Pills and turned around. After a while, he took out a shiny violet card, presented to Yun Che and said, "This is your Profound Currency Card, please accept. If you need anything else, you will always be welcome in our Black Moon Merchant Guild. ”

This violet Profound Currency Card stored coins in it. Yun Che decided to check its contents and found not a single coin lacking; it was exactly three hundred coins in purple!

Yun Che had never had this much money in his entire life. His entire savings over the past sixteen years could only amount to a little more than a thousand big yellow coins.

Three hundred deep purple coins! How long to spend all that? If Little Aunt saw this, she would definitely be shocked.

After laying down the Profound Currency Card, Yun Che did not leave immediately. He used his right hand to once again put something on the table and coldly said, "That's deep, your offer!"

After placing the deep red-colored profound core on the table, Yun Che heard the voice of Jasmine's question in his head: "What are you doing? You want to sell it? You crazy?"

Yun Che immediately replied: "No, no, of course I didn't sell it. You don't have to worry; I just want to scare them a little so that in the future, it will be easier for me to do business here. ”

"This is deep?" The officer suspiciously took it. The members of the Black Moon Merchant Guild, even of the lowest rank, still had the ability to become amazing people. However, he was still unable to determine where these profound core monsters came from.

He took out a deep core and gently stroked it. Immediately after, his complexion suddenly changed; his eyes opened wide as he raised both his trembling hands: "This ...this this ....this this this is this! Not only that, this was the Emperor of the Profound Core Dragon !! ”

"Huh! Repot anything, quickly make an offer! "Said Yun Che impatiently.

The officer placed the deep core back on the table, afraid to take it again. His view of Yun Che had completely changed from before; it was the difference of heaven and earth. He politely said: "Dear customers, please .. please wait a moment. For such an important matter, the little one here does not have the authority to make a decision … "

At this point, he turned around and shouted to the floor above, “ Elder Pu, quickly come! This is an important business issue! Hurry along!"

Not long after, a petite old man appeared on top of the stairs and slowly walked over. Although the stairs were made of wood, the steps did not make the typical creaking sound that would be made. His pair of eyes were gentle yet full of vitality. His name Pu He —— is known by everyone in New Moon City as the branch manager of this Black Moon Merchant Guild.

"An important business problem?" Pu He calmly, yet proudly, walked over and gently glanced at Yun Che.

"Older Pu, come .. look!" The attendant took out a deep core with trembling hands and handed it to Pu He.

Pu He glared at her and unhappily said, "Huh. Take hold of yourself, how can you let that small, Profound Core put you in this state! Could this be the Sky Profound core? Look at you, people will start to think that our Black Moon Merchant Guild is lacking! ”

Pu He gave a lecture with a cold gaze as he took a deep core. At that moment, he suddenly stopped talking as his hands trembled slightly. He quickly brought it closer to his eyes and carefully used a hint of his profound energy to examine it. His body trembled as his beard rose and shouted in a voice an octave higher than the clerk, "Emp ... Profound Emperor... Dragon Core !!"

The officer silently looked at him .. A moment ago, you lectured me, but you shouted louder than I did.

"Huh! The Profound Emperor Core has already made you guys fuss; the Black Moon Merchant Guild is truly promising. ”

Pu He was extremely shocked when he heard this statement spoken in a cold hoarse voice. He immediately hid his expression, looked at Yun Che, and earnestly sized it up. He carefully put the Fire Dragon core back on the table and respectfully asked: "Dear Customer, is it possible to tell us your honorable name?"

When he first came down, he only glanced at Yun Che. Upon seeing the zombie-like face, he only snorted in disdain as to who in New Moon City would dare to be arrogant in his Black Moon Merchant Guild. But now, Pu He thought the way Yun Che looked was normal. A person capable of obtaining the Dragon Profound Emperor core, what kind of existence was he? What use did he have for the Black Moon Merchant Guild in a small town?

When he had studied this "middle-aged man" before, he was shocked because this person had extremely sharp and sharp eyes. With such eyes, it was impossible to hide anything in front of this man.

Yun Che narrowed his eyes, coldly asking: "Guild Merchant Black Moon you are only doing business transactions, when did it add a new rule to ask for someone's name?",

In that split second, Pu He felt a hint of killing intent .. Even though it was only for a moment, it still made all the hairs on his body stand up. He himself had killed many people in this life and had gone through many near-death experiences as well; so he could very easily understand and sense killing intent. But throughout his life, he had never felt such a terrifying killing intent from just a moment ago; he could not even imagine how many people would have to be killed in order to obtain such a terrifying killing aura … Ten grand? One hundred thousand ... Or maybe ..... a number that would even scare a ghost, a million?

Perhaps the killing intent of the Asura Hell in the legends was impossible compared to this.

Pu He's heart rate soared as he broke out in cold sweat; from the many years he had been in New Moon City, this was his first time breaking out in cold sweat. A deathly pale face with a terrifying murderous aura; he could even take out the Profound Emperor core as if it was nothing! This murderous aura; perhaps killing people was something he did casually …

At this point, Pu He's back was already drenched in cold sweat; he lowered his head and respectfully replied, “No, no, please don't mind Pu He. In the presence of a person capable of killing Profound Emperor beasts, yet a True Dragon Profound Emperor, one could only be admired and peerless. Pu He could not help his admiration and let his tongue slip. ”

He really wanted to know the rank of this "scary person" but even if he was given more courage, he still did not dare to test the level of strength of Profound Yun Che.

"Oh!" Yun Che snorted coldly.

After the murderous aura spread, Pu He could finally sigh in relief and politely ask: "The Profound Emperor's essence is an immeasurable treasure; not to mention New Moon City, not to mention New Moon City, even in the entire Blue Wind Empire, one would only appear once in a century. Why do our Dear Customers want the treasure ... sold? "

"It's no use to me!" Yun Che nonchalantly said.

No use to him? Pu his heart skipped a beat .. Even the Profound Emperor core was easily rejected, exactly where was this person?

Pu He bitterly smiled and said, "Honored Customer, even though this Pu desperately wants the core of this Dragon Profound Emperor, I don't want to hide the fact that this is a very precious item, either, so that its value is not counted. Even if this Pu gave you the value of this branch of the Black Moon Merchant Guild, it might still be worth a fifth of this Dragon Profound Emperor's core. ”
