Chapter 256 - 225: Transaction !



Du Beishuang was not only the son of the Immortal Moon Palace Lord but also one of the ten Golden Core Stage True Disciples of the Fairy Moon Palace with a potential chance to inherit the position of Palace Lord in the future.

Being a True Disciple of the sect was no small matter, hardly anyone in the Fairy Moon Palace could surpass him in terms of status.

Not to mention Xu Mu, who was just an Outer Sect Elder. Even higher-ranking Inner Sect Elders would have to obey him.

While speaking, Du Beishuang’s intimidating presence, characteristic of the Golden Core Stage, also suppressed the area.

Becoming a True Disciple of the Immortal Moon Palace demonstrated his undeniable talent, which was incomparable to ordinary Golden Core cultivators. Even at his peak, Xu Mu could not confidently say that he had a hundred percent chance of defeating him.

Facing the dual pressures of status and strength, Xu Mu remained very calm.

“I ask that your lordship first put away your impressive aura. I am now advanced in years, and I may become breathless and die in your palace! When I came here, several Inner Sect Elders from the Pill Hall were informed. If they were to spread the news, I’m afraid it won’t be good for your lordship’s reputation!” Xu Mu said indifferently.

Du Beishuang’s face darkened, but he had no choice but to retreat his aura.

Considering Xu Mu’s frail and decrepit state, he was genuinely afraid the old man might die under his care.

Whether Xu Mu’s words were true or false, he didn’t know. But if the news really got out, his already lackluster reputation would be completely tarnished.

All of this for a dose of Immortal Moon Dew, it just wasn’t worth it.

Although, he did initially plan to renege on the deal.

“How can I confirm the authenticity of this pill without the pill recipe?” Du Beishuang asked coldly.

“Your lordship can simply have someone test it. If it is fake, I am willing to pay three times the Spirit Stones for the Immortal Moon Dew!” Xu Mu confidently said.

“Hmph!”

With a cold snort, Du Beishuang reluctantly handed over a dose of Immortal Moon Dew to Xu Mu.

Upon receiving the Immortal Moon Dew, Xu Mu examined it carefully, completely disregarding his trust in Du Beishuang, making the veins on Du Beishuang’s forehead pop.

After confirming everything was in order, Xu Mu suppressed his excitement, and along with the pill recipe, presented 180 top-grade Spirit Stones.

Honestly speaking, Du Beishuang was genuinely exploiting him!

The special tier seven pill recipe was already extremely valuable, and yet he had to pay an additional charge at market price in Spirit Stones.

Poor people must bow under the eaves!

To successfully advance to the Golden Core Stage, Xu Mu had to temporarily endure it.

Of course, if the opportunity arose in the future, he would naturally claim it back.

“Then, I’ll take my leave!”

Once Du Beishuang received the pill recipe, he lost interest in Xu Mu and waved him off dismissively, allowing Xu Mu to make his exit.

As for why he didn’t go back on his word?

Of course, it was for his reputation!

It simply wasn’t worth risking his reputation over a dying old man.

“However, do you think I’ll let you off the hook that easily?”

Watching Xu Mu’s retreating figure, a murderous intent was revealed in Du Beishuang’s eyes.

The reason for his killing intent wasn’t because Xu Mu had played him, but because the pill recipe had a major use to him. He couldn’t let too many people know of its existence.

Shortly after, the attendant who tested the pill returned

“How was it?”

Du Beishuang anxiously asked.

“It’s identical to what’s recorded in the books, but

“But what?”

“But the refining method for this pill bottle is quite inferior, its effectiveness only slightly better than a tier six pill!”

“What?! That old man!”

Du Beishuang’s face darkened, he wished he could slap Xu Mu to death.

If the effectiveness of the pill was poor, it meant he had to find another Pill Master for refining.

“My lord, considering the state of that old man, the fact that he could refine a pill is already a miracle. If he could really refine a middle-grade, or even a top-grade pill, that would be the real problem.” The attendant said.

Du Beishuang furrowed his brows, but he had to admit that the attendant made sense.

Although he understood this, the thought of having to expend a considerable amount of effort left him inevitably frustrated.

“Refer to the black market to hire a Rogue Cultivator Alchemist. The price can be higher, but the news must be kept confidential!”

“Understood!”

The attendant responded.

“Sir, how do you plan to deal with that old man? He remains a hidden threat.”

“Then find a way to make him die sooner!”

“Yes!”

“When you take action, you can be bold. Regardless, no one will care if a person in such a state dies!” Du Beishuang said, smirking.

“Understood!”

The attendant nodded.

Given Du Beishuang’s status, it would be easy to orchestrate the death of a powerless Outer Sect Elder within the sect. Furthermore, considering the elder’s advanced age, his sudden death would even seem plausible. As long as it was done subtly, no one would suspect anything.

But to their surprise, Xu Mu, after obtaining the Immortal Moon Dew, didn’t even return to his residence. Instead, he directly went to the Internal Affairs Hall to rent a high tier cultivation room for three years.

High tier cultivation rooms were normally used by Golden Core Stage Elders, they were very expensive. However, their quality and safety of cultivation environment was top-notch.

Once someone entered the cultivation room, not even a True Disciple like Du Beishuang, or even a Grand Elder of the Inner Sect, could disturb them at will.

After all, those who rented cultivation rooms were usually on the verge of a breakthrough. If disturbed, it could not only lead to failed breakthroughs but might also endanger their lives.

Therefore, the sect had extremely strict rules regarding this matter.

It was precisely for this reason that the plan to target Xu Mu had to be halted.

Of course, if Du Beishuang was willing to pay a huge price, it wasn’t impossible for him to enter the cultivation room to deal with Xu Mu. But as he said before, it’s just not worth it!

“What is this old man using such a good cultivation room for? Moreover, renting it for three years is not a small sum!” Du Beishuang wondered.

The fact that Xu Mu could afford hundreds of top-grade Spirit Stones to purchase Immortal Moon Dew had already surprised him. He certainly didn’t expect him to have even more Spirit Stones to rent a high tier cultivation room.

This made Du Beishuang realize that Xu Mu’s identity might be rather extraordinary.

This guy is definitely not an ordinary Loose Cultivator!

“My lord, could he be trying to break through to the Golden Core Stage?” the attendant guessed.

“Break through to the Golden Core Stage? Haha!”

Du Beishuang just laughed.

Because judging from the stale aura around Xu Mu, attempting a breakthrough to the Golden Core Stage was nearly impossible.

If Xu Mu tried to break through to the Golden Core Stage, it was practically akin to suicide.

However, Du Beishuang soon collected himself, thinking that it wasn’t entirely unrealistic. After all, when a person was about to die, they were capable of doing anything crazy.

Originally, he thought Xu Mu bought the Immortal Moon Dew just to prolong his life for a few more years.

“If he’s really trying to break through to the Golden Core, I must admit I admire this old man’s audacity!”

Du Beishuang said with a smile, stroking his chin.

“Should we continue with our plan?”

“No need!”

Du Beishuang nonchalantly waved his hand and said, “If he can break through to the Golden Core Stage in his condition, I’ll write my name backward!”

“Understood!”

From then on, they both stopped paying attention to this matter.

After all, given Xu Mu’s advanced age, everyone thought that trying to advance to the Golden Core Stage was nada but a pipe dream.

Just like that, three years passed in the blink of an eye.

Over the area where the high tier cultivation room was located, thick multicolored auspicious clouds appeared.

The spiritual energy of the entire sect was affected.

“Someone is attempting to break through to the Golden Core Stage!”
