Chapter 788 Unexpected Transaction

Considering this, Han Li flipped his palm, and three pieces of Ziyang Warm Jade appeared in his hand.

According to the method he had obtained from Shi Chuankong, he carefully placed them on Ti Hun's forehead, chest, and lower abdomen, and respectively injected a magic formula into each of them.

The hazy purple light emitted from the surface of the three purple crystals suddenly brightened, but then returned to normal.

Seeing this, Han Li frowned slightly. After pondering for a moment, he sat down cross-legged on the spot, his eyes fixed on Ti Hun.

Time passed bit by bit, and after a full quarter of an hour, neither the three pieces of Ziyang Warm Jade nor Ti Hun showed any further changes.

Han Li's expression darkened upon seeing this.

He had personally tried it before, and although these Ziyang Warm Jades were low-grade, they did have considerable benefits for the soul. Even if they couldn't completely heal Ti Hun, they should have some effect.

However, he had expected this. He immediately stood up and began to set up a formation on the floor of the pavilion.

After more than an hour, a hexagonal formation about ten feet in size appeared on the floor of the pavilion, with a circular open space in the center and sixteen grooves in various locations of the formation.

Han Li looked around, and after confirming that everything was correct, he waved his hand and sent out a green light, lifting Ti Hun's body and gently placing it in the center of the formation.

Then, he took out sixteen more pieces of Ziyang Warm Jade, and inserted them one by one into the grooves within the formation. Only then did he wave his hand and cast a magic formula into the formation.

Buzz!

The hexagonal formation immediately began to operate, and the sixteen pieces of Ziyang Warm Jade emitted a burst of purple light. Streams of purple light poured out from them, and then converged on Ti Hun's body along the formation patterns.

A layer of purple light immediately appeared on Ti Hun's body, enveloping her.

Covered by the purple light, Ti Hun's aura immediately stabilized, and the speed of her Yuan Qi dissipation greatly reduced, but it did not completely stop.

Han Li frowned at this sight.

The energy contained within the Ziyang Warm Jade was of an extremely special nature, and it was not easy to activate it. This formation seemed simple, but it was actually very profound. It was based on a formation with a gathering-spirit effect, and he had used his past understanding of formation restrictions to transform it with all his effort, enough to enhance the effectiveness of these low-grade Ziyang Warm Jades placed within it to about mid-grade.

Now it seemed that it still wouldn't work.

In other words, if he wanted to further increase the effect of the formation on Ti Hun, he would have to replace all of these low-grade Ziyang Warm Jades with mid-grade ones.

But he didn't have a single mid-grade Ziyang Warm Jade in his possession, let alone finding sixteen of them.

Han Li frowned deeply, then sighed.

It seemed that for now, he could only place his hopes on the method Shi Chuankong had mentioned, and wait until he returned to Yeyang City to find the so-called High Priest.

Fortunately, the speed of Ti Hun's Yuan Qi dissipation had greatly reduced, which should be enough to support them until they reached Yeyang City.

However, he only had a little over two hundred low-grade Ziyang Warm Jades in his hand now, and he didn't know how long they could support the formation's operation. He still needed to acquire as many as possible.

"Ti Hun, don't worry, no matter how difficult it is, I will wake you up," Han Li murmured to himself, looking at Ti Hun.

After saying this, he quickly left the Flower Branch Space and returned to his room at the inn.

The night passed without incident.

Early the next morning, Han Li and Shi Chuankong settled their room charges and walked towards the entrance of the inn.

"Fellow Daoist Shi, since we've decided to stay here for only one more day, and time is limited, it would be better for us to act separately, what do you think?" Han Li said.

"Alright, this way we can find more shops. But we must be careful and maintain contact at all times," Shi Chuankong said after a moment of thought.

"Of course. But Fellow Daoist Shi, you may not need low-grade Ziyang Warm Jade, but it is very useful to me. If you see any on your side, please buy them all for me. I will pay you the full amount later," Han Li added.

"No problem. As for the fees, there's no need. Back in the Shuluo City dungeon, if it weren't for Fellow Daoist Ti Hun's rescue, I would probably be dead by now. Consider these Ziyang Warm Jades a small repayment for her life-saving grace," Shi Chuankong assured.

"Thank you," Han Li said, not insisting.

As they spoke, the two walked out of the inn. Lu Xie was already waiting at the entrance. Seeing them come out, he immediately greeted them with a smiling face.

"Fellow Daoist Li, why don't you take Lu Xie's beast cart? I'll rent another one," Shi Chuankong said, turning and walking away, stopping another beast cart by the side of the road.

"What's Senior Shi doing?" Lu Xie asked, confused.

"He has other things to attend to. Don't worry about him. We'll continue to other shops today," Han Li said, waving his hand.

"Yes," Lu Xie replied knowingly, and drove Han Li towards the trading district.

...

In the blink of an eye, another half day had passed.

Under Lu Xie's guidance, Han Li had visited five or six more shops, but the harvest was much worse than yesterday. So far, he had only bought less than a hundred low-grade Ziyang Warm Jades.

He walked out of a shop, his brows tightly furrowed. He waved over Lu Xie, who was standing outside, and was about to go to the next shop.

"Senior Li, not long after you entered this shop, someone stopped me and asked me to give this to you." Lu Xie walked over, holding a black communication talisman in his hand, with a look of apprehension on his face.

Han Li raised an eyebrow, took the communication talisman, and his spiritual sense plunged into it. His pupils immediately contracted.

"Where is that person?" he asked immediately, looking around.

People were coming and going all around, and there was nothing unusual.

"That person... after giving me the communication talisman, he... left immediately, saying that if Senior Li wanted to find him, he would be waiting for you at the... Plum Blossom Teahouse up ahead," Lu Xie said, stuttering, even more uneasy after seeing Han Li's reaction.

"It's nothing, you don't need to be nervous. Take me to the Plum Blossom Teahouse," Han Li instructed, his eyes flashing a few times.

Lu Xie agreed and drove Han Li forward.

Han Li sat in the beast cart, looking at the communication talisman in his hand, a look of contemplation on his face.

There was only one sentence in the communication talisman: I have news of Ziyang Warm Jade.

After a long while, a trace of determination flashed in his eyes. He flipped his hand and put away the communication talisman, then took out a purple jade plate. After activating it with a hand seal, he whispered a few words into it, and then put the jade plate away again.

The beast cart sped forward, and soon arrived in front of a quiet teahouse.

"Wait for me outside," Han Li said, walking into the teahouse.

There were not many customers in the teahouse. Only four or five people were sitting sparsely at the moment.

A teahouse attendant came up to greet him, but he ignored the attendant and looked at the few customers.

At this moment, a square-faced young man in black clothes sitting on the edge stood up and nodded to Han Li.

"Fellow Daoist, thank you for coming. But this is not the place to talk. Let's go to the second floor for a detailed discussion." A clear voice sounded in Han Li's ear, and then the young man in black turned and walked upstairs.

Han Li narrowed his eyes. After pondering for a moment, he stepped forward and followed.

The two entered a private room one after the other and sat down.

"Did you leave this communication talisman?" Han Li asked, taking out the black communication talisman, his eyes flashing.

"That's right, my name is Black Wolf. Because this matter is extraordinary, I used this method to invite you here, please forgive me," the young man in black nodded in acknowledgement, and at the same time waved his sleeve.

Several black lights flew out from his hand, which were several black flags. After spinning around, they formed a black light curtain, covering the entire private room.

Han Li's eyes flickered slightly, and he immediately determined Black Wolf's cultivation level, which was a True Immortal Realm cultivator.

Moreover, this person was not from the Fierce Beast Clan, but a Demon Clan like Shi Chuankong.

He was not surprised by this. In the past two days, he had been walking around the city and had seen many Demon Clan members, and even some mortal Demon Clan people. These people were dressed in different clothes, and seemed to be from different mortal kingdoms.

According to Shi Chuankong, the various Fierce Beast Clans within the Ten Affliction Mountain Range and the Demon Clan outside were hostile to each other, but Black Weasel City was an exception, and people of all races could coexist peacefully.

However, in this way, the entire Black Weasel City was a mixture of all races, like a big hodgepodge, which was somewhat unconventional.

The reason for this situation, without asking, was probably due to the unique Black Weasel King.

"That's fine. Do you really have news about Ziyang Warm Jade?" Han Li asked, putting aside some miscellaneous thoughts, and looking directly at Black Wolf.

"Of course, otherwise I wouldn't have invited you here," Black Wolf said with a smile.

"How much Ziyang Warm Jade do you have? If it's just a small amount, I'm not interested," Han Li said, slightly pleased in his heart, but without showing any emotion on his face.

"Don't worry, Fellow Daoist, the Ziyang Warm Jade here, whether in quantity or quality, will definitely satisfy you. Here is the list, you can take a look first, and if you are satisfied, we can talk about the specific details," Black Wolf said with a chuckle, taking out a jade slip and handing it over.

Han Li gave Black Wolf a deep look, took the jade slip, and after his spiritual sense plunged into it, his expression immediately changed slightly, and his eyes revealed a strong look of surprise.

The amount of Ziyang Warm Jade listed in the jade slip was indeed a lot. Not only were there more than five hundred low-grade pieces, but there were also nearly forty or fifty mid-grade pieces, and even two high-grade Ziyang Warm Jade.

"As far as I know, the amount of Ziyang Warm Jade is very small. Even the best shops in the city can only buy some low-grade ones. Can you really take out so much Ziyang Warm Jade?" Han Li said after a slight silence, his eyes flashing with a gleam of light.

"I'm not someone who is idle and bored. Since I said this, it's naturally not a lie, so you can rest assured," Black Wolf said with a faint smile, stroking his palms confidently.

"That's good. How do you plan to sell these Ziyang Warm Jades?" Han Li nodded with a relaxed expression, and asked.

Black Wolf showed a hesitant look, considered for a moment, and then quoted a price.

Han Li's eyes fluctuated. This price was not expensive, and was even cheaper than the market price he knew.

It seemed that there should be a hidden reason, such as the fact that the origin of the other party's batch of Ziyang Warm Jade was not legitimate and it was not easy to dispose of, which was why it was sold at such a low price.

However, he naturally didn't care about this. If he could make this deal and get the Ziyang Warm Jade, he would leave Black Weasel City immediately, and would not be afraid of any trouble.

"No problem, I want all the goods. Do you have those Ziyang Warm Jades with you? If so, let's start trading now," Han Li said, thinking.

"Not so fast, before doing this business, I still have some things to explain," Black Wolf waved his hand and said.

"Please speak," Han Li said, secretly saying "as expected" in his heart, while opening his mouth with an unchanged expression.
