Mysteries of Immortal Puppet Master-Chapter 664 - 197: The Truth Behind the Gamble_2

“However, there are currently no such treasures on the list.”

Zhao Xi nodded and sighed, “Young Master Ning Zhuo, as expected, you have rather luxurious tastes due to your elite family background.”

Liu Er, who had been listening on the side, nodded in strong agreement with Zhao Xi’s evaluation.

For most cultivators, it is unnecessary to invest excessive resources during the Foundation Establishment stage. It’s too wasteful!

Because in the early stages, cultivation is relatively easy, and one’s cultivation level can be rapidly improved.

However, Ning Zhuo used rare treasures like National Power Bricks in the first stage of Foundation Establishment. In the second stage, he still seeks treasures not inferior to National Power Bricks to hasten his cultivation.

Is this necessary?

Normally, for most cultivators, it is not necessary at all!

It’s more cost-effective to save resources for later stages of cultivation.

Ning Zhuo is only sixteen years old. Most young cultivators are still in the Qi Refinement Realm. Even if some geniuses have reached the Foundation Establishment Stage, they wouldn’t deliberately seek such rare treasures to simply increase their cultivation level. They would use them for other purposes, such as understanding cultivation techniques or practicing skills.

Zhao Xi’s remark about Ning Zhuo’s extravagance resonated deeply with Liu Er.

Liu Er recalled that during his own Foundation Establishment period, he relied on his own efforts, spending most of the day cultivating.

The resources Ning Zhuo is using now are so lavish that even when Liu Er advanced to the Golden Core Stage, he hadn’t had the chance to enjoy such resources!

Especially National Power Bricks.

Liu Er had never used a single National Power Brick up to this point.

Before, he had indeed received similar rewards for his battle achievements, but he gave them all to Guan Hong to help the latter recover quickly.

While being envious, Liu Er could only sigh, acknowledging that Ning Zhuo truly lived up to his elite family background.

Ning Zhuo explained to the two that this was his first time participating in such a grand battle, and his desire to advance his cultivation level had reached a peak in his life. He was extremely eager to become stronger.

Therefore, he desperately wanted auxiliary treasures to help him quickly break through to the next stage.

This explanation made both Liu Er and Zhao Xi understand Ning Zhuo a bit more.

Zhao Xi recalled the intelligence and found Ning Zhuo’s actions quite reasonable. After all, with his Golden Core Level combat power, his biggest shortcoming was himself. Reinforcing his weak points was actually a sound strategy.

However, Ning Zhuo’s willingness to spend such vast resources was extraordinary, which both amazed and secretly envied Zhao Xi.

Zhao Xi pondered and said, “Reflecting carefully, our royal treasury does have such a treasure.”

“It was presented as a diplomatic gift by an envoy from the Kingdom of Three Yangs—the ‘Three Alignments Treasure Talisman.’

“The treasure talisman is named ‘Three Alignments Treasure Talisman.’ The Royal Family of Three Yangs primarily cultivates the ‘Three Yangs Opening Tai Scripture.’ The talisman was created using the scripture, ink made from the refined essence of the sun, moon, and stars, symbols drawn on millennia-old Parasol Tree leaves, and finally infused with powdered flood dragon tendons, thus achieving perfection.”

“The quality of this talisman is at the Magic Treasure Level, and it is reusable. Once consumed to a certain extent, new materials can be added to recreate it, significantly increasing its usage duration.”

“As is widely known, the ‘Three Yangs Opening Tai Scripture’ embodies the concept of nurturing all things and is one of the finest techniques in the world. At the early Transforming Spirit Level, one can separate three yang spirits, which is incredibly powerful. At the Treasure Medicine Generation stage, using the ‘Three Yangs Opening Tai Scripture’ is child’s play.”

“If Young Master Ning Zhuo can obtain this treasure, it would be equivalent to having certain advantages of the ‘Three Yangs Opening Tai Scripture’ during the Foundation Establishment Stage!”

Ning Zhuo was moved, “According to your words, Lord, can such a national treasure be exchanged for battle achievements?”

Zhao Xi smiled, “Naturally, it cannot be done through normal channels, but isn’t that what I’m here for?”

Ning Zhuo immediately understood, handed over a storage bag, and informed Zhao Xi that there would be additional gifts once the matter was settled.

Zhao Xi scanned the storage bag with his divine sense, and his lips curled into a smile as he openly accepted the storage bag into his arms.

The atmosphere in the room became even more harmonious.

The three then chatted for a bit longer.

Primarily it was Zhao Xi and Ning Zhuo conversing, with Liu Er occasionally interjecting.

“It’s getting late, and I still have affairs to attend to.”
