Celestial Of The Void 6 Qi Gathering Array

"Are you willing to sell those to me personally or auction it?" asked Manager Poe inwardly sighing keeping up his professional appearance. By a.s.sessing his gains and losses during this small exchange, such transactions could be favorable to him in the future by following his intuitive side.

"I'm in dire need of funds so it is best to sell it to the esteem, Manager Poe," answered Silver approving Manager Poe's choice.

"Although I do not lack the fund to buy this from you, it is better to auction such items, they could go for 10 times the price!" beamed Manager Poe keeping his joy in check.

"I understand but it's better to build a bridge for the future than to live lavishly for the moment," chuckled Silver hinting at the fat manager.

"Such a great saying! I would buy your demonic cores at a price a bit higher than the market. Not only that, I would like to befriend young Silver!" complimented Manager Poe standing up in elation.

He truly felt astonished by Silver's words. No ordinary warrior could have a mindset like this, they rather be well known and get rich quick. Rarely would anyone decide something wise and invest into their future.

'Keeping a good relations.h.i.+p with him will benefit me the most,' thought Manager Poe.

'Hopefully I can meet his master...'

"I will take the ranked 8 and 9 demonic cores but I do believe it is best to auction a valuable item, such as the evolved demonic core. The cost of the ranked cores are extremely valuable and could be sold at a high price, especially in an auction. I'll take them for 6.5 million Sols altogether. Does that price satisfy you?"

"Hmm, that would be great Manager Poe. I still feel it is best you take the evolved demonic core. Holding such a valuable core may not be in my best interest, at least with my cultivation,"replied Silver weakly emanating his 3rd level internal realm.

"I'd prefer to take this as an investment to the Gold Spring Merchant a.s.sociation, a partners.h.i.+p with you as you might call it."

'He's extremely clever, he needs a backer, baiting me with a peak ranked 8 demonic core. I might as well hook on to it, hopefully I make the right judgement,' though Manager Poe staring at Silver understanding his hints.

"I hope we can keep making future transactions from now on," replied Manager Poe finally solidifying his decision.

"Good, here is your 3 demonic cores" smiled Silver as the cores flew out of his right palm into Manager Poe's right palm.

Unknowingly, if anyone seen or heard their conversation they'd definitely be astonished.

No one could make this lazy and shrewd manager budge an inch, even if given a mile. If the other high status clients saw this scene, they would definitely cough up blood in anger since they've wasted so much resources just to gain minimal benefits from Manager Poe.

Looking at the 3 demonic cores in his hand, Manager Poe felt extremely giddy enough to see the fat slightly jiggling if one were to pay attention. Putting his demonic cores away, he quickly retrieved a few items out from his personal spatial ring.

Giving them a quick glance, Manager Poe smiled as he gave them to Silver.

"Thank you," accepted Silver calmly gazing at the spatial ring. Using his divine sense, he could see a red jade token and a sleek black card with Gold Spring Merchant a.s.sociation VVIP in gold lettering imprinted on it within the ring.

"I'll explain the functions for you, Silver. The spatial ring has a low-grade s.p.a.ce array inscribe, allowing it to hold up to 10 cubic meters of items. The black card also has a low-grade s.p.a.ce array also inscribed but only allowing the currency we use.

It's made of an slightly rare but almost useless metal, Nightfall Ore, which is easily malleable but hard to destroy. The a.s.sociation only makes one for every shop so we can gift them to extraordinary individuals.

The jade token, which is the highest grade in our a.s.sociation, it can be used to get one free item from our shop at any price." informed Manager Poe upholding a mighty pride.

Only those he felt 1000% worthy could make him take out these unique items without feeling even a minuscule thread of doubt.

"I nearly forgot, the card also gives you a 20% discount through any and every single Gold Spring Merchant a.s.sociation!"

"Thank you, Manager Poe," bowed Silver feeling inwardly shocked. Somehow, he gotten something worthwhile, either this fat manager was a bit out there or had other ideas to lure him and his 'master' in.

"No, no, call me Brother Poe! With the benefits you've given me, you're definitely worthy to be called a brother. I will call you brother Silver for now on too. Just your ranked 9 demonic core has given me the s.h.i.+ning hope I needed! This much is something I can do for you!" urged Man-err- Brother Poe unanimously.

Silver felt his right eyebrow twitch when Brother Poe relayed the information and the uses of the items. He had never met anybody, besides him for those he cared for, who could just hand out such extraordinary items without a second thought before.

Just both items were quite useful to the current him.

Calming himself down, he decided to accept the situation and follow the flow. If not, this Brother Poe of his may continue to act increasingly outrageous. Hopefully, this doesn't become a future headache for him.

"Since we're brothers now, I do hope you can auction this formation array for me," encouraged Silver as he handed a scroll, out from his robe, to Brother Poe.

"Hmm? What kind of a formation array? Are you an array master?" asked Brother Poe receiving and inspecting the scroll curiously.

'WHAT!? This-s-s is a extreme-tier qi gathering array? Only those mysterious super sects have high-tier qi gathering arrays. Something like an extreme-tier is rare, especially for such a useful formation. Even the materials needed are rather easy to gather! This formation is truly something impeccable.'

"Do you want to auction this?" queried Brother Poe feeling shocked inside and out.

"Yes, I would like to auction it. Hopefully you could take account of keeping today's matter secret," pleaded Silver feeling a bit surprised from his brother's reaction.

Is a weak mid-tier qi gathering array really worth that much commotion? Something like this isn't useful since he knew stronger and better formations that had more uses.

"No problems brother, all matter will be kept secret to my grave!" Brother Poe said with an exceptionally serious tone.

If Brother Poe could hear Silver's thought, he would definitely cough up blood out of surprise and anger due to the fact Silver regarded it as a weak "mid-tier". A formation this simple and strong being called weak could make any powerful and well-known array master die from shame.

"Alright, I'll come back after I settle my matters and collect the payment. If you need an alias for your a.s.sociation, call me "Master Void"," informed Silver as he stood up and gave a quick martial salute to Brother Poe.

Silver walked out of the office, headed downstairs, and out the shop doors. He took a glimpse into the morning, blue sky as he stepped onto the streets of White Lotus City.

Blinking once, he continued towards his old home.

Manager Poe stood by the window of his office and watched Silver strolled down the streets until he disappeared from his sight. Giving an audible sigh, he started making the necessary preparation for the next auction.

Silver continued his journey towards the rural section of the city. Staring ahead, a dirty white, one story house* with a faded red hard hill roof appeared before him. The house was covered in moss and vines climbing all over the roof, walls and red-framed windows.

Around were clumps of leaves and unkempt undergrowth as if the house had become one with the earth it was built on.

Using his divine sense, he scanned the whole home to ensure there were no unwanted guests. Finding out the house was truly empty and devoid of people, he venture through the front gates with an empty expression.

In Silver's memories, this was where Kong Xing resided for most of his life. The original was always busy trying to survive, he never had time to take care of his residence which caused its current appearance. From his memories, there was only one room he always kept clean no matter what the circ.u.mstances was.

Closing the gates, he continued to stroll down the corridor, taking a left and entering a huge room. Silver stayed quiet, staring at a small altar with two tablets covered in dust on it. Using his qi, the dust dispersed from the room as he walked forward and grabbed some incense from a cabinet nearby the altar.

Silver placed nine incense in the censer behind the two tablets and took a few steps back and began kowtowing three times before it.

"Kong Xing's pay respects to mother and father," Silver respectfully addressed to the two tablets as he finished the the third kowtow. Even though they weren't his parents, he did take over Kong Xing's life and it was best to show them their son's filial piety.

With the final wish of Kong Xing completed, Silver felt a tiny strand of Kong Xing's soul that he never noticed fused with his. Thus, he had complete control of the new body and he could continue his path without any problems.

"This Kong Xing was surely cautious… hiding the final strand until I completed his wish to see his parents. Truly an easygoing lad until the end. I should really clean this place up since I have the funds now."
