Chapter 391 Trading
Mo Hei listened silently, then nodded slightly, his expression unreadable.
Then, without being heard, the chieftain of the volcano tribe moved to the side of another beautiful young woman and introduced the piece of dead wood she was carrying:
"If I am not mistaken, this withered tree is a piece of Chaos Wood. Although it is only the size of a small finger joint, the chaotic power contained within it is extremely pure and vast."
"This really is a piece of Chaos Wood. Mo boy, you've come to the right place. Although it's only a small section and a bit lacking, if you refine it properly, it will be enough for you to make use of."
Then, the little evil dragon confirmed this through divine sense transmission from the Dragon Pill Cave.
Although Mo Hei remained outwardly calm, he was inwardly excited, his gaze fixed eagerly on the next item.
Seeing Mo Hei's forced composure, the chieftain of the Volcano tribe couldn't help but smile knowingly, then turned and said in suspense:
"As for this ancient book, it is a fragment of a divine soul cultivation technique. Although it is a rubbing, if young friend Mo has the talent to comprehend and learn it, he will surely benefit greatly."
Just as Mo Hei was filled with doubt and surprise, he suddenly heard the Candle Dragon Spirit Fire urgently transmitting its voice, shouting:
"Young Mo, hurry up and ask if they have the original. We must seize the original no matter what."
Mo Hei was completely puzzled by this and asked through divine sense:
Why is that?
"Don't ask me any more questions."
The Candle Dragon Spirit Fire then interjected, transmitting its message telepathically:
"If there is an original source, then there is knowledge of it."
Confused, Mo Hei had no choice but to bite the bullet and ask:
"May I ask if there is an original copy of this scroll of soul cultivation techniques?"
After a moment of surprise, the chieftain of the volcano tribe asked instead:
"Why do you ask such a question, young friend? Could it be that you can repair and perfect this soul cultivation technique from its original form?"
"He truly lives up to his reputation as a cunning and shrewd old man."
Before Mohei could answer, the Candle Dragon Spirit Fire seemed to have no choice but to respond with a helpless retort, and instead transmitted its voice to Mohei through divine sense:
"Since this old fellow has taken the initiative to bring out these items for trade, there must be a reason. Young Mo, you should just wait and see."
Moheidun understood immediately, then turned to the chieftain of the Volcano tribe and replied with a smile:
"If it were the original, I would be very concerned. However, if there is only this one rubbing, it would not be a big deal. I would appreciate it if the clan leader could teach me about another item."
The chieftain of the volcano tribe, aware of this, chuckled and casually offered a brief explanation:
"Hehe... Young friend Mo, you're waiting for a high price, so be it. I can guarantee that this fragment of bone is a piece of Azure Dragon's remains. As for this array plate, it's a restrictive array containing demonic energy."
After hearing the descriptions of the last two items, Mo Hei subconsciously remained silent for a long time before finally saying:
"I wonder what price the clan leader intends to offer for these five items? If the value is too high, I am powerless to help."
The chieftain of the volcano tribe smiled slightly and asked in a gentle tone:
"Young friend Mo, do you still remember the opportunity in the desolate region that I mentioned earlier?"
Mo Hei was taken aback, his brows furrowing slightly. For a moment, he was at a loss for words, then nodded slightly and said:
"May I ask for your instructions?"
"If it weren't for the fact that young friend Mo acted righteously and was kind to my people, how could I have repaid kindness with enmity and revealed this opportunity in the desolate region to young friend Mo, doing something as risky as snatching chestnuts from the fire?"
The chieftain of the Volcano tribe paused for a moment before speaking:
"To be honest, the opportunities in this desolate region are fraught with danger. The reason I revealed this to you, young friend, is that I hope you can join forces with other visitors from outside the region to seize this opportunity together."
Upon hearing this, Mo Hei immediately understood and asked directly:
"According to the clan chief, is there anything of great importance to the nobles among the opportunities in this desolate region?"
Indeed.
The chieftain of the volcano tribe was pleased, his eyes showing approval, and he nodded, saying:
“Young friend Mo is truly exceptionally intelligent. There is an item in this desolate region that is related to the rise and fall of my Volcano Tribe. If you can seize it, all five items will belong to you.”
"Young Mo, don't rush to agree."
Without hesitation, the little evil dragon immediately sent a telepathic message to remind and inform the dragon.
Immediately following, the Candle Dragon Spirit Fire transmitted its voice:
"Of course I can't agree to that immediately, but young Mo, you can take this opportunity to ask about the original source of that Divine Soul Technique?"
Mo Hei also had his own judgment. He glanced at the five items and knew that this matter was not simple. Before responding, he needed to know as much as possible about the relevant details.
After some thought, Mo Hei asked calmly:
"Chieftain, where exactly does this opportunity lie in this desolate region? And what dangers lurk within?"
The chieftain of the Volcano tribe said nothing more, simply waving his hand to display a map of their territory in the air, and pointing with his finger:
"Young friend Mo, please take a look. This map only shows the terrain of the two wastelands. The location where you and I are now is in the western part of the Great Northern Wilderness. This opportunity in the wasteland is located at the bottom of the deep valley at the junction of the Great Northern Wilderness and the Demon Flame Wasteland."
Looking closely at the black ink, this book had almost no annotations, only a few outlines and notes.
It is not hard to see that the area is indeed barren, with the vast majority being desolate wastelands where no one lives and not a blade of grass grows.
Mo Hei memorized the regional topography depicted in this map and asked again:
"Do you know what dangers lurk at the bottom of this deep valley?"
The chieftain of the volcano tribe looked troubled, and after a long pause, he said:
"Only by truly stepping into the valley will you know what dangers lie within."
What does this mean?
Mo Hei's voice suddenly became stern.
At this point, Tuna, who was standing to the side, smiled wryly and said:
"Fellow Daoist Mo, can't you understand what the clan leader is implying? That is, none of my clan members can descend to the bottom of the valley."
Therefore… as for the dangers discovered, the most immediate threat is a type of fly, which is impossible to guard against; the remaining dangers are not a concern.”
Mo Hei fell silent for a moment.
It is not difficult to deduce from these few words that the bottom of this deep valley must be fraught with danger, and it is located at the border between the Great Northern Wilderness and the Demon Flame Wilderness.
The chieftain of the volcano tribe silently put away the map and said in a calm tone:
“Young friend Mo, there is no need to worry. All the visitors from beyond the realm who have come here before have escaped from this Valley of Death and gained a lot. What you should really be worried about is the unknown danger at the bottom of the valley.”
"Young Mo, find a way to get your hands on that Azure Dragon's remains."
Just as Mo Hei was filled with doubt and uncertainty, he heard the little evil dragon urgently transmitting its thoughts.
After a moment's thought, Mo Hei asked directly:
"What exactly is it? It's worth the clan leader offering five treasures as a reward."
The chieftain of the Volcano tribe, unable to contain his emotions, revealed a touch of nostalgia and sadness before slowly speaking:
"It is the remains of an ancestor."
"This……"
Not only was Mo Hei deeply astonished, but even Zhulong Linghuo and Xiao Nielong, who were also in Longdan Cave Heaven, looked at each other in bewilderment, speechless for a moment.
The chieftain of the volcano tribe seemed unfazed, and simply pulled out a blood bead, saying:
"If you wish to find the remains of your ancestors, young friend Mo, then accept this blood bead."
After much deliberation, Mo Hei said resolutely:
"Before agreeing, I wonder if the clan leader could do me the favor of handing over this Azure Dragon's remains first?"
The chieftain of the volcano tribe subconsciously looked troubled and pondered for a moment before asking:
"Why did you specifically request this item, young friend Mo?"
Mo Hei, enigmatic and unpredictable, shook his head slightly, offering no reply, and then changed the subject:
"Please forgive my intrusion, Chief. How about we exchange some goods for something else?"
"This……"
The chieftain of the volcano tribe pondered for a moment, then slowly nodded and said:
"It's not impossible."
Mo Hei's face lit up with joy, and he quickly asked:
"May I ask, clan leader, what kind of rare and precious materials would you be willing to exchange?"
Upon seeing the look in the eyes of the volcano tribe chief, Tuna immediately understood and rubbed his hands together, saying:
"Fellow Daoist Mo must have seen this along the way. This place is extremely barren with very little vegetation. I wonder if the herbs you are carrying could be used as collateral?"
It seems that scarcity truly makes things valuable; this place truly lives up to its name as the Great Northern Wilderness. Mo Hei remained calm and composed, simply saying:
"In that case, I am not a stingy person and am willing to offer a three-thousand-year-old mid-grade herb, Star Spirit Grass, as collateral."
If I fail to fulfill my request, I am willing to exchange two more medium-grade herbs for this item.
If I am fortunate enough to fulfill my mission, I will exchange this three-thousand-year-old mid-grade herb, the Star Spirit Grass, for the original copy of this Divine Soul Cultivation Technique. What do you say?
"make a deal!"
Without much hesitation, the chieftain of the volcano tribe readily agreed, only adding later:
"However, there is one thing that young friend Mo should know: even the original of this Divine Soul Technique was only a fragment, and it is no different from this rubbing."
Mo Hei didn't seem to care at all, and his face lit up with joy as he said:
"Of course, as long as it's the original one."
After everything was settled, the chief of the Volcano tribe was in high spirits, as if he were celebrating a happy occasion. He personally hosted a banquet to warmly welcome Mo Hei.
It's clear that this place, located in the desolate Great Northern Wilderness, is indeed resource-poor. The main dish of the banquet is half a free-range wild boar, accompanied by crudely made strong liquor.
Although Mo Hei had lost his appetite since embarking on his cultivation journey, he had no choice but to raise his glass and drink with the volcano tribe members who were enthusiastically toasting him.
The advantage lies in his cultivation. Even though he couldn't refuse the hospitality and drank several jars of wine, he could simply circulate his spiritual energy to dissipate the effects of the wine.
The party didn't end until nightfall, when everyone was satisfied.
Mo Hei received a high-level reception and was arranged to rest in a private courtyard.
In this desolate and barren northern wilderness, where almost nothing grows, vegetation has been cultivated and grown in this courtyard.
This is enough to show the noble and luxurious nature of this courtyard.
To avoid being overheard, Mo Hei did not enter the Dragon Pill Cave Heaven, but instead sat cross-legged on the bed and transmitted his thoughts through divine sense:
“Little evil dragon, this Azure Dragon’s remains can indeed be used to integrate with pebbles to create a protective barrier.”
"The bottom of that deep valley must be fraught with danger. That old fellow must have heard that you came from the spatial storm, which is why he rewarded you so handsomely."
The little evil dragon could hardly hide its anger, and then transmitted its voice:
"To be on the safe side, we must get our hands on this Azure Dragon's remains no matter what. Otherwise, if we really encounter danger, this Dragon Core Cave hidden in the pebble could really become our trump card for survival."
