Chapter 1989: Chapter 69: News
It’s a pity that the amount of Immortal Marrow Jade Liquid in those two bottles was extremely limited and was basically used up by him.
The reminder from Ghost King Xicai gave him an idea.
In the treasury of the Red Sky Palace before, there were quite a few Innate Dao Treasures that could be used as bargaining chips.
Feeling a slight stir in his heart, he suddenly thought of something:
“By the way, do you know if there’s anyone in the Sea of Chaos Realm who can repair Innate Dao Treasures?”
“Repairing Innate Dao Treasures?”
Ghost King Xicai was slightly taken aback and immediately frowned in thought:
“In the Sea of Chaos Realm, there indeed exists an Artifact Refining Grandmaster proficient in repairing Innate Dao Treasures, well…”
He suddenly brightened up and clapped his hands, saying:
“I’ve been to the Great Sea Market before. Every time the Great Sea Market opens, numerous cultivators or factions build a temporary market there, including a stall specifically for trading Innate Dao Treasures. I remember an Artifact Refining Grandmaster was sitting in there.”
“The Great Sea Market… doesn’t this Artifact Refining Grandmaster belong to any other faction?”
Wang Ba asked with a slight frown.
“Well, I’m not really sure about that. We generally don’t go out of our way to find an Artifact Refining Grandmaster, so I don’t know much about it… But a grandmaster capable of repairing Innate Dao Treasures would probably only be maintained by a few large powers.”
Ghost King Xicai thought for a moment and shook his head.
Upon hearing this, Wang Ba couldn’t help but fall into contemplation for a while.
The reason for inquiring about repairing Innate Dao Treasures was also to hope that he could repair the Treasure Basin of Immortal Essence and nurture a seventh-rank Sea Pearl as soon as possible.
These years of arduous cultivation hadn’t led him to enlighten any Dao Domain but to study the lowest-level rules of the Little Cang World. Although his Dao Domain hasn’t increased much, his Primordial Spirit has grown very rapidly. Coupled with his collaboration with Ghost King Xicai to study the Triple Suffering, after enduring it several times, his Dao Domain has once again fallen back to Class II. But after several condensations, his Primordial Spirit finally advanced smoothly to the late Void Refining stage, and it was already quite close to reaching the peak of Void Refining.
His plan was to polish his Primordial Spirit to perfection, then push forward the advancement of the Yellow Dao Domain seamlessly, and then begin to merge with Daoist Yuanci. Leveraging Daoist Yuanci’s profound foundation, he aimed to break through the bottleneck and step into Unification.
The previous steps were manageable, but merging with Daoist Yuanci wasn’t an easy feat. No, it could be said to be much more challenging than improving the Triple Suffering Curse Technique.
At the very least, even when Wang Ba used a sixth-rank Sea Pearl before, he was unable to completely deduce it.
Compared to when he had merged with Ice Daoist during the Immortal Ascension stage, this time was as difficult as a mortal ascending to the heavens.
After much thought, a seventh-rank Sea Pearl might hold the hope of solving this issue.
In some respects, this matter even held the highest priority among the many current affairs.
After all, he was the foundation of everything in the Little Cang World at present.
This was not arrogance but a very clear understanding of his own value.
“I understand… just keep a close watch.”
Wang Ba nodded and instructed.
Ghost King Xicai quickly agreed.
Wang Ba also inquired about some details of the Great Sea Market and learned that, inside the realm, middle or low-tier spirit materials that were very common became extremely popular in the Great Sea Market.
“Who wouldn’t consider the younger generation? Those Innate Dao Treasures aren’t something low-class cultivators can use. The spirit materials, elixirs we’ve cultivated in the Fake Realm are also extremely costly, which makes it common in the Great Sea Market for vast amounts of middle and low-tier spirit items of unknown origin to circulate, at prices even lower than what we usually cultivate, hehe, the origin’s obvious without guessing.”
Ghost King Xicai gave a few cold laughs.
Wang Ba showed a contemplative expression.
“From this perspective, the Great Sea Market is indeed a rare opportunity for the Little Cang World.”
Exchanging for the needed treasures also allows a clearer understanding and assessment of the entire Chaotic Sea. It prepares for the next decisions in the Little Cang World.
With a focused gaze, he glanced at Yu Yu, who was still meditating with Wu Monkey King outside the realm, and faint ideas formed in his heart.
He always acted immediately once he had a clear plan, and soon let Ji Ying start making preparations.
The Little Cang World, except for a lack of other treasures, had an abundant supply of middle or low-tier spirit materials, spirit mines, spirit plants.
Particularly the Wanxiang Sect, which placed great emphasis on the collection and storage of various spirit materials, had quickly accumulated a substantial amount of such materials.
Wang Ba continued to comprehend the numerous rules of the Little Cang World.
It was precisely these rules, along with his grasp of the authority in the Little Cang World, that allowed him to remain almost invincible inside the realm.
Especially with the restoration of the Little Cang World’s status, while it wasn’t wise to overestimate himself too much, below the Tribulation-Transcending Realm, within the Little Cang World, there were likely none who could rival him.
Of course, once outside the Little Cang World, he was still just a Dharma Lineage cultivator with a Dao Domain that had fallen to Class II and a Primordial Spirit in the late Void Refining stage.
However, even without relying on the power of the Little Cang World, when faced with the Five Ghost Kings or Yun Qi, a single opponent might still not be his match.
“It’s still far from enough… I hope Chong Hua returns soon.”
Wang Ba sighed softly and closed his eyes.
He vaguely felt that Chong Hua and Fanming might not have been missing but had flown too far to return quickly.
However, what he didn’t expect was that, after several more decades had passed, Chong Hua didn’t return, but news of the Great Sea Market arrived.
“Taoist Master, the Great Sea Market has appeared!”
Ghost King Xicai held a ring engraved with a pavilion emblem, and with a mana infusion, instantly activated a map.
On the map, densely packed yellow dots were scattered all over, and a glaring red dot conspicuously sat in the middle of the map.
