On the other side.
The Taiyi Sage Lord and the others returned to the Void Islands in high spirits.
Su Yuan cheerfully set up his stall.
"Take a look, have a look! Lower-grade Acquired Supreme Treasures, Law Root Qi, Hunyuan Spirit Pills, I have them all! Anyone interested in buying?" Su Yuan called out to the Taiyi Sage Lord and his group.
The Taiyi Sage Lord walked over in surprise.
When he saw those Lower-grade Acquired Supreme Treasures, clear astonishment appeared in his eyes.
"So many Lower-grade Acquired Supreme Treasures?"
Su Yuan smiled slightly: "Many of these were contributed by the Immortal Lord himself, and some I acquired from other places. Do you need any?"
The Taiyi Sage Lord naturally needed Lower-grade Acquired Supreme Treasures. Suitable Acquired Supreme Treasures for oneself weren't common, and there were over forty pieces here, a truly considerable quantity.
At the same time, he also noticed there were many Hunyuan-level materials, all slightly cheaper than market prices!
Among them were even precious spatial-temporal materials!
These materials could completely be used to craft a set of Acquired Supreme Treasures suited to him!
But unfortunately, he wasn't skilled in artifact refining.
And currently, he didn't have that many Star Coins on hand.
Su Yuan seemed to notice his financial constraints and said: "I also offer recycling services here. You probably collected quite a few resources from the God Realm Sea earlier, right? I can purchase them here. Treasures like Ancient God Artifacts are very incompatible for cultivators from our Immortal-Demon Realm Sea to use, so I suggest you sell them. I'll buy them back at seventy percent of the market price, very fair!"
"Seventy percent? Can you go any higher? I worked hard to obtain these resources too!" The Taiyi Sage Lord said, "If I can exchange for suitable treasures and improve my strength, I can bring you even more goods in the future."
"How about this, seventy-five percent then?" Su Yuan said.
"Deal!" The Taiyi Sage Lord didn't haggle further and immediately handed over almost all the treasures they had plundered to Su Yuan for recycling.
Su Yuan settled the account with them, giving them fourteen thousand eight hundred Tai Chi Star Coins (equivalent to eleven Star Coins).
Among them, the Divine Kingdom Cores were the bulk, fetching a high price of eight thousand Tai Chi Star Coins.
"Struck gold, struck gold!"
The Taiyi Sage Lord asked excitedly, "Do you have Time Law Root Qi? I need a portion! How many Star Coins?"
"Time Law Root Qi? Not currently, but I have Epoch Law Root Qi!" Su Yuan paused, "If you want to buy it directly, the price isn't low; it costs three thousand Tai Chi Coins!"
The Taiyi Sage Lord's heart leaped with joy; this price was cheap! This was Law Root Qi related to the Time Law. Epoch Law was slightly inferior, but it was still an extremely powerful law. The Epoch Primordial Dragon, relying on his mastery of Epoch rules, was among the top figures even among the many Great Powers.
The auction price might be lower, but that would take ten thousand years, and he couldn't wait that long now. Besides, the type of Law Root Qi available then couldn't be chosen freely.
So he said without hesitation: "I'll take one portion!"
"Three thousand Tai Chi Coins, thank you for your business!" Su Yuan said with a smile.
In reality, the cost for him to convert this strand of Law Root Qi was worth about 100 Tai Chi Coins. A thirty-fold profit margin could only be considered a small gain.
Both the Taiyi Sage Lord and Su Yuan were very happy; this was a win-win situation.
The Taiyi Sage Lord then spent the remaining eleven thousand eight hundred coins on purchasing Acquired Supreme Treasures.
He outfitted each of the Taiyi Sect's vice sect leaders with a set.
When the Taiyi Sage Lord had spent several thousand Star Coins and still had five thousand left, Su Yuan spoke again: "I also offer custom treasure forging services here, for only five times the price of a same-quality treasure! Does the Taiyi Sage Lord wish to custom order some?"
The Taiyi Sage Lord said in surprise: "You know artifact refining too?"
Su Yuan condensed a strand of Creation Rule power in his hand!
The Taiyi Sage Lord gasped: "Incredible! I want to custom order one piece. How long would it take?"
"Theoretically, it requires one Yuan Assembly of refining time!" Su Yuan paused, then added, "However, I also offer expedited service here!"
"Expedited service?" The Taiyi Sage Lord was puzzled.
Su Yuan waved his hand, and fluctuations of Time Rule condensed in his palm.
The Taiyi Sage Lord drew a sharp breath: "Truly amazing! How much is the expedited fee?"
"If expedited to one month, it just requires an additional fee equal to the base price!" Su Yuan said cheerfully.
The Taiyi Sage Lord was silent for a moment: "So that would be five thousand Tai Chi Star Coins?"
"Correct! Do you need it?"
The Taiyi Sage Lord discussed with the other vice sect leaders.
"Sect Leader, have it forged. We don't have much time here; we should gather as much as we can. You obtaining a compatible treasure will allow you to unleash even greater power!"
The Taiyi Sage Lord was indeed tempted.
He now suspected that Su Yuan restricted the main bodies of cultivators at the Hunyuan Great Luo Golden Immortal Perfection realm from coming precisely to sell treasures!
"I want to custom order one treasure!"
"Alright, please provide a deposit of one thousand Star Coins!"
Su Yuan said with a smile.
"Deposit?" The Taiyi Sage Lord suddenly smiled and said, "I want to custom order five treasures!"
Su Yuan was taken aback upon hearing this and said, "Fellow Daoist Taiyi, I think you should act within your means!"
"Heh, I know what I'm doing!" The Taiyi Sage Lord said calmly.
"Fine! Please give me the requirements for the treasures!"
The Taiyi Sage Lord immediately handed Su Yuan the treasure requirements for himself and the four vice sect leaders, and also gave Su Yuan a portion of his own rule power, blood, and True Spirit aura for refining the treasures.
These things were very private for cultivators. Some methods could affect one's main body through them.
Therefore, the fact that Su Yuan gained the trust of the Taiyi Sect was also due to much prior groundwork.
The actions of the Taiyi Sect members were also observed by the avatars left on the island by other Great Powers.
Soon, the other Great Powers returned victorious and came to Su Yuan to exchange for treasures.
Quickly, Su Yuan's stock of Acquired Supreme Treasures was swept clean!
A significant amount of the Law Root Qi he held was also sold.
The Zhuyuan Great Emperor, who had somehow plundered three Hunyuan-level secret realms from somewhere, directly packaged the secret realms and brought them to Su Yuan, exchanging them for thirty thousand Tai Chi Coins.
The Zhuyuan Great Emperor exchanged in one go for ten types of Root Qi, including Epoch Law Root Qi and Dimension Law Root Qi, and then vanished in the blink of an eye.
As for the Immortal Lord and the Demon Lord.
The two were still out of contact. Su Yuan could sense their locations but didn't investigate.
Why bother with these two?
Even if they were getting themselves killed, he didn't care; he'd just gain two Tai Chi bodies for free.
And Su Yuan collected all the resources, placing them all into the [Tear of Eternity].
A massive amount of treasures surrounded the [Chaos Pearl], accelerating its recovery.
Under the effect of the Time Law, the recovery situation was gradually improving.
The Spatial-Temporal Horned Worm Tianji's origin had been drained by ninety percent, leaving it listless, but its cultivation realm remained at the Hunyuan Great Luo Perfection stage.
Finally, with the replenishment of Hunyuan resources, the [Chaos Pearl] finally fully recovered its form.
