Immortal Taoist Lord: My Cultivation Have No Limits

Chapter 179: 102 Great Harvest, Chaos in Yunjian Sect (10K Subscriptions Needed)_l

When Su Yu heard the deafening shout, his face showed a brief surprise. This voice, a Puppet Daoist, had been heard once at the temporary market near the

Eight Demons Ridge, belonging to the deputy Palace Master of the Great Moon Palace, Taoist Longyan.

A cultivator at the peak of the Core Formation stage.

“So, he was the one maintaining order at the Great Moon Black Market.” A bit of tension lifted from Su Yu. With him there, the Inner Market would undoubtedly be safer.

And then, Su Yu thought of the body materials of the third-order inferior eight-armed Mantis Monster. He couldn’t help but be slightly tempted.

Compared to the eight-armed Mantis materials he had gotten before, this third-order inferior one was undoubtedly better.

How could he acquire this, though?

The day after the monster wave ended, Su Yu heard about a trading fair being held outside the Inner Market. He took Su Zhi, Su Qi, and others for a stroll around it and bought numerous fine items from the fair.

He even acquired an array of goods like second-order top-grade beast skins, essence blood, etc. He traded for these using mid-grade Spirit Stones and when he had the time, he could craft some second-order top-grade talisman paper.

Maybe he could gather a few dozen sets of materials.

Besides that, at the trading fair, Su Yu also purchased many materials needed to refine a second-order top-grade puppet beast, the ‘Eight-Armed Mantis’.

Now he was only short of some Light Shadow Stones to complete a set.

Unfortunately, at the trading fair, Su Yu didn’t see the materials from the third-order inferior Eight-Armed Mantis from yesterday.

10 days later.

Courtyard.

Taoist Xiuyu returned to the Great Moon Black Market from outside and came to the courtyard. After handling the talisman and pill affairs, Su Yu stayed behind and quietly asked, “Taoist Friend Xiuyu, do you have a way to trade for the materials of the third-order inferior Mantis Monster?”

“I also need Light Shadow Stones.”

Su Yu looked at Taoist Xiuyu. Although he couldn’t contact anyone from the Great Moon Palace, it was different with the Tianxu Hall.

To his knowledge, one of the services that the Tianxu Hall provided was finding items for others, with the hall standing as the middleman for a cut of the profit.

Taoist Xiuyu pondered for a moment and said, “I can ask. If a transaction can go through, our Tianxu Hall requires ten percent of the transacted fee.” “If it can’t, our Tianxu Hall will charge one thousand inferior Spirit Stones.”

Su Yu thought it over and nodded in agreement, “Acceptable.”

Under the matchmaking of Tianxu Hall, not even an hour passed and Su Yu had traded for the materials of the third-order inferior Mantis Monster from the hands of the Great Moon Palace, along with a sizable Light Shadow Stone.

The condition for the trade was that Su Yu drew a hundred sets of second-order top-grade talismans for the Great Moon Palace.

The Great Moon Palace provided the material, but no more than four hundred sets.

The time was rather generous, he just needed to finish within three years.

The other party of these terms and conditions was unexpectedly Daoist Lethal Liquor, a Core Formation Elder of the Great Moon Palace.

Su Yu did not haggle, Daoist Lethal Liquor’s conditions were quite fair, and did not ask for excessive totals, and the smoothness of the matter exceeded Su Yu’s expectations. And she probably found out about his identity as a second-order top grade Talisman Drawing Master from the Tianxu Hall, hence she allowed him to swap drawing talismans with her.

Originally, Su Yu was thinking of exchanging them with mid-grade Spirit Stones or maybe consider other treasures, but Daoist Lethal Liquor did not make things difficult for him and now he no longer needed to worry about it.

As for the Tianxu Hall’s fee, fifty mid-grade Spirit Stones were needed, an acceptable expense.

However, on detailed calculation, for the materials of the second-order top-grade Puppet Beast Eight-Armed Mantis, the basic costs were no less than eighty thousand inferior Spirit Stones.

The materials of the third-order inferior Mantis Monster took up most of that amount.

Those eight knife-like arms and the third-order inferior monster core were worth at least fifty thousand inferior Spirit Stones!

After settling these, Su Yu, who had obtained the material, came to the secret room. The Puppet Daoist had already returned from outside and Su Yu had left it in the corner of the secret room, where it was quietly devouring material essence to upgrade itself.

He walked to the middle of the secret room, took out all the materials of the third-order inferior Eight-Armed Mantis and felt a terrifying presence while picking up the monster core. Awestruck, he licked his lips, felt a chill down his spine, and goosebumps sprouted all over. He had the sensation of facing the horrifying Eight-Armed Mantis Monster just like before.

Recalling the scene of the Eight-Armed Mantis breaking the formation, instantly killing a pseudo Core Formation Stage Cultivator, and dozens of other cultivators, Su Yu couldn’t help but take a deep breath.

The killing ability of this monster was horrifying.

Had it been a regular third-level monster, the pseudo Core Formation Stage Cultivator might have had a chance to react and under desperate circumstances, with the help of other cultivators, might have managed to withstand a few moves and wait for reinforcements.

But faced with the Eight-Armed Mantis, those cultivators didn’t even have time to react and were instantly killed.

Regaining his senses, Su Yu felt a bit of excitement and thought, “The stronger the better. With this material, perhaps the second-order top-grade Puppet Beast Eight-Armed Mantis that I forge will be even stronger.”

There was just one thing he didn’t calculate accurately, the material from this third-order inferior monster was more difficult to forge than expected.

That night, Su Yu checked all the materials for forging the Eight-Armed Mantis Puppet Beast and pondered how to forge it.

He attempted to forge the material from the third-order inferior Mantis Monster, but the result wasn’t satisfactory.

The material was too hard and with his current cultivation, it would be no easy feat to forge it. If he were to actually use the materials from a third-order inferior monster as the core for forging, he estimated it would take at least seven to eight years to complete the Eight-Armed Mantis Puppet Beast..
