Su Xing saw that Song Laosi's attitude seemed sincere, so he said:
"How about this? I'll buy some more high-tier demonic beast flesh essence from you, and also a low-grade sword treasure..."
"If you have any news about the Qingyun Sect in the Little Qingyun Realm, you can sell it to me too."
High-tier demonic beast flesh essence was not forbidden for trade in the Little Qingyun Realm, even within the Descending Sect, Body Refinement cultivators often consumed it.
Song Laosi nodded repeatedly after hearing this, he was genuinely interested in Su Xing's Gathering Spirit Flower.
Thus, Su Xing and Song Laosi came to an agreement.
Integration Phase demonic beast flesh essence, ten thousand spirit stones per pound, Su Xing bought a hundred pounds in one go, enough to refine a Rebirth Pill for a while.
A low-grade sword treasure, priced at three hundred thousand spirit stones.
Various alchemy materials, totaling fifty thousand spirit stones.
The information on the Qingyun Sect was priced at five hundred thousand spirit stones, and Su Xing paid a fifty-thousand spirit stone deposit first.
As for a secret technique that could significantly increase strength in a short time, Su Xing did not mind the cost, but the strength improvement must be substantial! Song Laosi did not guarantee he could find this secret technique, hence he did not collect any deposit.
In total, Su Xing spent one million eight hundred fifty thousand spirit stones, and Song Laosi only accepted thirty-five Gathering Spirit Flowers from Su Xing.
Before leaving, Su Xing thought of something and asked casually:
"Hehe, Brother Song is well-connected, since you can transport goods in and out... can you also take people in and out of the valley?"
Song Laosi laughed awkwardly and shook his head after hearing Su Xing's words:
"Haha, Brother, you're joking... goods are dead, but people are alive!"
"Even if I had a thousand guts, I would not dare to take people out of the valley!"
Su Xing was not discouraged after hearing this, so he asked again:
"What if I am willing to spend ten million spirit stones?!"
"Or... two hundred Gathering Spirit Flowers?"
Upon hearing Su Xing's words, Song Laosi's heart trembled, and a trace of longing appeared in his eyes.
But he shook his head and said:
"Sigh, it's not that I don't want to, but it's just impossible!"
"Let's just pretend I never heard about this..."
Su Xing felt a bit puzzled after hearing this, as Song Laowu did not say the same thing last time in the simulation.
But seeing that Song Laosi remained inflexible, Su Xing could only leave for the time being.
Soon, the immersive simulation ended, and Su Xing returned to the real world.
Su Xing began to sum up the gains and losses of this immersive simulation.
"Firstly, I obtained the Integration Phase demonic beast flesh essence... plus that Xuan Gu Pill, reaching the fifth layer of the Chaos Origin Realm should not be difficult!"
"However... does Song Laosi really know about Luo Tian and Xue Yue?"
Su Xing was somewhat uncertain.
Song Laosi's expression at the time did not seem fake.
Therefore, there were only two possibilities.
First, Xue Yue and Luo Tian were of too high a level, and Song Laosi was not able to contact them yet.
Second, Song Laosi knew, but for some special reason, he could not reveal it.
Based on Song Laosi's earlier demeanor, Su Xing actually leaned more towards the first possibility.
"And then there's the last point, about bringing people out of the valley... Song Laosi and Song Laowu's statements differ, who should I believe?"
He decided to try again in the next simulation.
Thus, he looked at the simulation panel.
[In the valley, after trading with Song Laosi, you returned to your residence.]
[You started alchemy, and after a month, you refined over a hundred Rebirth Pills.]
[In the following months, you consumed Rebirth Pills daily to temper your physique, finally raising your cultivation level to the peak of the fourth layer of the Chaos Origin Realm!]
[Thus, without hesitation, you swallowed the Xuan Gu Pill you traded from Song Laosi.]
[Three days later, you successfully broke through and became a fifth-layer Chaos Origin Realm cultivator!]
[At the same time, you keenly noticed that during the breakthrough, your lifespan decreased by roughly thirty years.]
[Also, your cultivation level seemed a bit unstable and needed further refinement.]
In the real world, Su Xing saw this and nodded slightly.
"Sure enough, the Xuan Ti Pill, like the Xuan Gu Pill, is a pill that diminishes potential..."
"But for my simulated self, there's no difference between living three hundred years or three thousand years!"
"Moreover, when the cultivation is brought out by the simulator, the side effects can be removed!"
Indeed, as Su Xing thought.
Such pills or cultivation techniques that consumed lifespan were extremely beneficial to Su Xing!
Because they were inexpensive and had almost no side effects on Su Xing in reality.
He looked towards the simulation panel.
[As the time for the second Blood Seed competition approached, you also received the Qingyun Sect information promised by Song Laosi.]
[You opened the intelligence and read it carefully, obtaining several key pieces of information.]

[The Qingyun Sect's area of influence in the Little Qingyun Realm was very far from here. You would need to cross the Hundred Thousand Great Mountains and then cross two state territories to reach Little Qingyun City.]
[Little Qingyun City was the stronghold of the Qingyun Sect in the Little Qingyun Realm.]
[Rumor had it that there was a Heavenly Immortal elder of the Qingyun Sect guarding the city, making it impregnable.]
[Also, every ten years, the Qingyun Sect held a grand ceremony to recruit disciples.]
[Any cultivator with a True Spiritual Root or above the Nascent Soul Realm could join the Qingyun Sect as an outer disciple.]
[Apart from bringing you information about the Qingyun Sect, Song Laosi did not find anything about Luo Tian.]
[However, he told you that in the Three Thousand Worlds, the Qianji Pavilion was known for its intelligence network, and you might find some information there.]
[Additionally, Song Laosi brought you two "superior secret techniques" to choose from.]
[These two secret techniques, as you required, had enormous costs and enormous gains!]
[One was called "Realm Dropping Jue." It allowed one to pay the price of dropping realms to fight across realms in a short period. For every two realms increased, the user would permanently drop one level after using it, requiring re-cultivation.]
