Chapter 954: Qi of Vitality

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Yun Yang entered the meditation room as he spoke. The three elders were separated into three corners outside the room, fully immersed in their efforts to guard the young man. They could distinctly tell that Yun Yang’s vital signs had vanished immediately inside the room.

The trio let out a collective sigh of relief. This meant that Yun Yang had already entered the Spirit’s Grave.

This was one of the factors that encouraged the General Commerce League to work with Yun Yang with its utmost earnestness. Not only did Yun Yang have the goods, but his transaction method was also exceptionally secure as he could do it anywhere and anytime; there was no such thing as a non-existent transaction.

All that was left now was to wait.

…

As Yun Yang’s vital signs that signaled his presence disappeared, he stepped into his deific consciousness space.

Emmie was already cheering gleefully, already aware that Yun Yang would come.

“Ayaya…”

Its tendrils swayed eagerly with rare excitement. Once it saw Yun Yang, it wrapped its delicate leaves around him almost instantly, putting up an adorable front like a child.

A wave of freshness wafted to Yun Yang, reinvigorating him both physically and mentally.

Yun Yang fondly peeled Emmie’s leaf from his face and said with a straight face, “Behave, little fellow. You should be happy now that there are so many good items here.”

“Ayayaya…” Emmie twirled around, lost in its ecstasy.

” Beyond your expectations?” Yun Yang grinned in joy as well.

This would be his largest haul to date since he had arrived at the Bound of Universe. The upper-class spiritual jade pieces he had obtained previously was not small in sum, but the total value and actual contents were much lower than what he had this time. After all, the heaven and earth resources and mystical steels he received now were all invaluable goods.

Take, for example, the Celestial Amethyst; a single piece was worth ten thousand pieces of upper-class spiritual jade, but having ten thousand pieces of the upper-class spiritual jade could hardly enable the purchase of a piece of Celestial Amethyst. In other words, the Celestial Amethyst could not be bought if it were not for a fortunate stroke of serendipity. It was like what Feng Guohai said, the market price barely sufficed in describing the goods’ true value.

“I’ve promised them some goods and they did indeed make an effort. You should know what to do,” Yun Yang said with a telling look in his eyes.

“Ayaya?” Emmie hesitated, slowly giving consideration to his words.

‘That’s right, these items aren’t for nothing. They are meant to be exchanged. However, what should I give in return?’

Emmie was lost, despite a lengthy period of pondering and eventually began to grow impatient.

“Ayaya-ayaya…” It focused its efforts to cajole Yun Yang instead.

“You have so much energy. You can divide them into levels and I shall take some each time I come. This is the best way we can make offerings without much effort,” said Yun Yang.

“Ayaya…”

It was not a problem. Emmie promptly relaxed, knowing that it did not have to ransack its mind, its leaves unfurling and tendrils waving again. Other than being filled with contentment and joy, it was also excited, waiting with eager anticipation.

After some time, Yun Yang exited the meditation room, looking fatigued but undeniably gleeful.

“How was it?” Feng Guohai sprung up in agitation.

In truth, he did not have to ask. It was obvious from You Yang’s expression. It must have been a massive success. In spite of this, Feng Guohai was so anxious that the question just slipped out unknowingly.

“My personal gain is still ten pieces of Celestial Amethysts this time around,” Yun Yang began with a smile and placed the ten crystals on the table.

The three elders did not move a single muscle or say a thing and continued to look at him. It was apparent that they knew that Yun Yang did not only acquire the crystals. The ten Celestial Amethysts were valuable, but they were no longer essential to Yun Yang or the General Commerce League, especially Yun Yang.

” I also have a gust of Qi,” said Yun Yang, “I’ve brought it out by sealing it on my arm. These items do not have a vessel. It needs to be retrieved on the spot and best used immediately by you all.”

“What Qi?” asked the trio simultaneously.

“It’s a ball of Qi of vitality,” answered Yun Yang, “The elder senior is very content with the items I brought along this time and bestowed the Qi of vitality that will allow anyone who is on their very finite timeline to return to the prime of their youth in the blink of an eye!”

The trio’s breathing became labored the moment they heard his words. Six eyes were rounded in unison, almost bulging out of their sockets.

‘Anyone who has limited time left to them!’

The wordings seemed redundant, but it was not repetitive at all. The meaning it contained would ensure that it was wildly coveted!

Perhaps the young cultivators who were in their prime could not fully understand the value of this line yet, but to the older generation cultivators who had reached the limit of their longevity and had very Iittle of their mortality left, they truly felt the significance of the energy of vitality!

Legend had it that as long as a cultivator was fortunate enough to receive a sliver of the Qi of vitality, he could extend ten years of his life!

There was obviously more than a sliver of energy sealed in Yun Yang’s arm - how could the Qi of vitality that “would allow anyone who was on their very finite timeline to return to the prime of their youth in the blink of an eye” be so scarce?

The heaven and earth resources were valuable and undoubtedly precious but even if it were one and only to the entire Bound of Universe, the value and magnitude were apparent when it was compared to one’s life.

Any person whose course of life had come to its end would obviously choose the continuation of his existence and not the heaven and earth resources! To give up life was to give up on everything else - this was the principle that could be applied to ninety-nine percent of things in this world.

“Young Yun, do you think the vitality Qi you have obtained could be shared by a few people?” Gu Jiuxiao asked hurriedly.

“Honestly, I’m not sure either.”

“According to that senior, he sealed my right arm using his divine sense and retained the energy within. In other words, I’m only a temporary vessel of this energy. You’ll have to discuss among yourselves on how you will ultimately decide to use it. Oh, and I’m unable to gauge the particular value of this energy. You’ll have to do that as well, and see if it can even out the goods you’ve supplied…”

The trio looked at each other, feeling somewhat challenged. When they heard of the vitality Qi, the three of them wanted it, to be honestly procured, almost wanting to get their hands on it the moment they saw it; after all, no one would complain about being alive for too long, especially cultivators.

However, the three of them were far from being in their declining years. In addition, they were the direct people in charge of this matter. If such a gem was consumed by them without being reported, their statuses in the General Commerce League would definitely be obliterated in the future. They would be using the vitality Qi today and die of unknown reasons tomorrow!

Forget the fact that this action was already considered embezzlement, it was hard to say if others would criticize them for the transparency, or lack thereof, regarding the entire matter.

From the moment Yun Yang confirmed it, the Qi of Vitality was already the General Commerce League’s property. It was no longer for personal use nor application. How it was to be used and who would use it would be decided by the higher-ups. It would belong to whoever they decided to give it to.
