I Can Travel between Two Worlds

Chapter 488: Chapter 34: Linlang Pavilion, a Major Deal!

"Exchange for top grade Spirit Stones?"

The receptionist gave Lin Chen a slightly surprised look.

Though top grade Spirit Stones have a high absorption rate of spiritual energy, their price is astronomical!

The spiritual energy contained in one top grade Spirit Stone is equivalent to about ten upper grade Spirit Stones.

However, using top grade Spirit Stones for cultivation only doubles the efficiency of upper grade Spirit Stones.

But the price?

One top grade Spirit Stone requires twenty-six upper grade Spirit Stones in exchange.

If measured in lower grade Spirit Stones, one top grade Spirit Stone requires five thousand lower grade Spirit Stones.

Yet, its spiritual energy content is only a thousand times that of a lower grade Spirit Stone.

It’s equivalent to losing about five times with every exchange for a top grade Spirit Stone.

However, it can’t be calculated this simply. For Nascent Soul cultivators and especially those at the Divinity Transformation Stage, the cultivation gains from lower grade Spirit Stones are almost negligible.

Middle grade Spirit Stones are only useful for improving cultivation.

If using upper grade Spirit Stones, one can gain considerable cultivation speed.

Previously, Lin Chen ran out of upper grade Spirit Stones for a few years, thus significantly impacting his cultivation speed.

As for top grade Spirit Stones...

Ordinary Divinity Transformation cultivators probably can’t bear to use them, for no other reason than... they’re too expensive.

If Lin Chen were to use top grade Spirit Stones for cultivation, consuming fifty pieces per day would mean consuming as much as two hundred and fifty thousand Spirit Stones.

Even with Lin Chen’s worth of several hundred million Spirit Stones, it would only be enough for decades of cultivation.

In comparison, using upper grade Spirit Stones for cultivation offers much better value, albeit with nearly half the cultivation speed.

Of course, this is because Lin Chen’s Devouring Spirit Root gives him exceptionally fast cultivation speed.

For ordinary Divinity Transformation cultivators, even with intense effort, they wouldn’t consume more than five top grade Spirit Stones in a day.

More often, top grade Spirit Stones are used for array formations.

However, there are still ten years until the opening of the Celestial Ruins.

Lin Chen must enhance his cultivation as much as possible within these ten years.

Originally, with Lin Chen’s cultivation speed, it would be impossible to break through to the Returning Void Stage within ten years.

But with the help of top grade Spirit Stones... maybe he could attempt a breakthrough to the Returning Void Stage?

By then, entering the Celestial Ruins would not be a concern...

"May I ask... how many top grade Spirit Stones do you need?" the receptionist asked. frёeweɓηovel.coɱ

Lin Chen thought for a moment and asked, "Two thousand top grade Spirit Stones... is it feasible?"

Upon hearing this number, the receptionist took another good look at Lin Chen.

Two thousand top grade Spirit Stones equate to ten million Spirit Stones.

Although cultivators in Yunzhou are either rich or noble, not many Nascent Soul cultivators can easily take out such a large number of Spirit Stones?

"Friend... are you planning to use such a large amount of top grade Spirit Stones for cultivation?" the receptionist asked.

Lin Chen shook his head and said, "No, they are just for use as array materials."

Upon hearing this, the receptionist’s doubts slightly diminished.

If it’s for array formations, then it makes sense?

At this moment, the receptionist already assumed Lin Chen was an elder from some sect, representing the sect to purchase resources. fɾēewebnσveℓ.com

"Alright, two thousand top grade Spirit Stones need a total of ten million one hundred and sixteen thousand lower grade Spirit Stones... can we round it down for you to ten million?" the receptionist graciously inquired.

Lin Chen nodded and handed over a Storage Bag.

After the receptionist checked the numbers, he temporarily left.

A moment later, he returned with a bag of Spirit Stones, solemnly handing it to Lin Chen.

"Friend, please check thoroughly... these top grade Spirit Stones are of high value, and we are not responsible for any issues after leaving the store."

Lin Chen nodded slightly at these words and used his Divine Sense to verify the top grade Spirit Stones.

Indeed, at the renowned Linlang Pavilion, the spiritual energy of these top grade Spirit Stones was plentiful, not lacking in the slightest, and there were precisely two thousand of them.

Lin Chen stowed away the top grade Spirit Stones.

But these two thousand Spirit Stones would at most be enough for a month’s cultivation.

Given his current status, attempting to acquire top grade Spirit Stones in large batches seems unlikely.

"First, return to using the top grade Spirit Stones for cultivation for a few days... if purchasing in bulk under the identity of a Nascent Soul cultivator, it might arouse suspicion..."

Lin Chen inwardly remarked and then left Linlang Pavilion.

Before leaving, he browsed around the pavilion.

Besides top grade Spirit Stones, there were also many Fifth Tier Qi Nourishing Pills, which were very beneficial to Lin Chen’s cultivation.

They even sold Spirit Realm Jade Dew, but the price was exceedingly high...

Five million Spirit Stones for one drop of Spirit Realm Jade Dew!

Indeed, the price is exorbitantly high...

After leaving Linlang Pavilion, Lin Chen returned to his cave mansion.

Lin Chen and Jiang Liqian had little communication, mostly attending to their own affairs.

At this moment, Lin Chen returned to the cave mansion and took out the top grade Spirit Stones he had purchased.

"With the spiritual energy of the Blessed Land, combined with top grade Spirit Stones... how fast will the cultivation speed be?"

Lin Chen felt a bit eager to try.

Thus, he took out a Purple Orchid Pill and swallowed it, activating the Spirit Gathering Array.

Afterward, hundreds of top grade Spirit Stones scattered around him.

Lin Chen slowly activated the Evergreen Technique.

After more than ten Grand Circulations, Lin Chen concluded his cultivation.

By now, it was the evening of the third day.

Lin Chen had cultivated for nearly two days.

All around him, hundreds of Spirit Stones had turned to dust, and Lin Chen sensed the changes in the True Essence within his Dantian.

"Tsk tsk, this cultivation efficiency is astonishing..."

A look of amazement flashed in Lin Chen’s eyes.

In just two days, his True Essence reserves had visible improvement.

These two days of cultivation were equivalent to half a month of cultivation in Qing State...

"But this cultivation consumption... it truly is quite large..."

Lin Chen took a deep breath.

The rapid boost in cultivation came at the cost of swift Spirit Stone consumption.

Considering the consumption of pills, cave mansion expenses, and top grade Spirit Stones...

Lin Chen required over three hundred thousand Spirit Stones for a single day of cultivation.

Over a year, that would amount to one hundred million Spirit Stones of consumption...
