Old Five is a Goose.
Chapter 1094: The Epochal Plate
As soon as Mo Wuji finished speaking, he felt a presence sweep over his entire body.
*What powerful divine sense*, Mo Wuji thought to himself, while preparing to act at any moment.
The Suffering Soul had clearly scanned Mo Wuji, and apparently didn't sense any aura of Extreme Ice Heavenly Bamboo, before sighing and saying, "If you can help me get Extreme Ice Heavenly Bamboo, I will lend you the Years Board for ten thousand years."
He believed that as long as Mo Wuji had the Extreme Ice Heavenly Bamboo on him, he could sense its aura. As for saying that if Mo Wuji obtained the Extreme Ice Heavenly Bamboo, he would lend the Years Board to Mo Wuji, that was complete nonsense.
Once someone entered the God's Repose Land, could they still leave? If one could leave the God's Repose Land, he, the Suffering Soul, wouldn't be lingering here for countless years.
Mo Wuji said calmly, "I heard Kun Yun say that your nickname is Dark Dao Lord. If I'm not mistaken, you should be one of the four Dao Lords below the eight Saints, right?"
The Suffering Soul said disdainfully, "Since when were the four Dao Lords below the eight Saints? Everyone knows that I, the Suffering Soul, am the Dark Dao Lord. You don't need to remind me."
Mo Wuji chuckled, "A Dao Lord like you is actually lingering under a hypocritical Saint, living a truly miserable existence. If I were you, as long as someone could bring me Extreme Ice Heavenly Bamboo to restore me to my peak strength, I would rather give them the Years Board in exchange. Otherwise, do you think anyone would exchange Extreme Ice Heavenly Bamboo for your Years Board for ten thousand years? Only an idiot would do that."
Although he said that, Mo Wuji was already prepared to be an idiot. The Years Board was something he was determined to get.
Unexpectedly, the Suffering Soul wasn't angry. Instead, he fell silent, and after a long while said, "Even if you know the location of the Extreme Ice Heavenly Bamboo, you have no way to leave the God's Repose Land, let alone leave the God Burial Valley."
Mo Wuji waved his hand, "That's my business. You just need to say whether you're willing to exchange with me. As long as you're willing to exchange with me, leave the rest to me."
After another long silence, the Suffering Soul finally said, "When it comes to exchanging, the value of a single Extreme Ice Heavenly Bamboo is worlds apart from the Years Board. Do you think you would be willing to exchange if it were you?"
"Wrong." Mo Wuji said without hesitation, "Senior, you are greatly mistaken. I don't know if Senior cultivated from a mortal?"
The Suffering Soul glanced at Mo Wuji and said calmly, "You don't need to remind me, I know that you cultivate the Mortal Dao, otherwise, you wouldn't have this mortal aura. You are also correct, I also cultivated from a mere mortal."
Mo Wuji continued, "If you were still a mortal, carrying a huge gold nugget in the desert. Seeing that you are about to die of thirst, now there is a choice before you, you need to use this huge gold nugget to exchange for a bottle of water, are you willing or not?"
The Suffering Soul fell silent again. How could he not understand Mo Wuji's words?
Carrying a gold nugget in the desert was a burden in itself. Turning that burden into a bottle of water before dying, anyone would agree, right?
It was the same as he was now, carrying the Years Board, wasn't it a burden? Countless people coveted his Years Board, to the point where he could only hide here and linger. The value of the Years Board was far stronger than Extreme Ice Heavenly Bamboo, but for him, Extreme Ice Heavenly Bamboo was now that bottle of water, and the Years Board was the gold nugget that increased his burden.
"Your eloquence is very good, but one Extreme Ice Heavenly Bamboo still can't make me give up the Years Board. Even if I die of thirst, I don't want this unequal exchange to happen to me," the Suffering Soul said calmly.
"What else do you need?" Mo Wuji asked calmly. He was overjoyed in his heart. As long as the other party dared to name a price, it would be easy.
"Ten top-grade Divine Spirit Veins, remember, they must be top-grade Divine Spirit Veins." The Suffering Soul held out a palm. "And besides the Extreme Ice Heavenly Bamboo, give me the best treasure for nourishing the physical body, at least a Primordial level..."
Hearing the Suffering Soul's words, Mo Wuji was a little dazed.
Seeing Mo Wuji's daze, the Suffering Soul said calmly, "What? Do you think the price is too high?"
Mo Wuji took another breath and said without hesitation, "Deal."
It wasn't that he thought the price was too high, but that he thought the price was too low. He had seven or eight hundred top-grade Divine Spirit Veins on him. Even if the Suffering Soul wanted a hundred, he wouldn't care. He didn't expect the Suffering Soul to only ask for ten. As for the best Primordial treasure for nourishing the physical body, he had the Hongmeng Life Essence. Wasn't that thing no worse than a Primordial treasure? Giving the Suffering Soul a bottle of Hongmeng Life Essence would be enough.
Mo Wuji didn't know how amazing a top-grade Divine Spirit Vein was. The reason he obtained so many was because a Heavenly Rift appeared in the Divine Realm, and then the rules of the Divine Realm were repaired. If there was no Heavenly Rift, every top-grade Divine Spirit Vein would be a top-level treasure, something that countless experts would fight over.
Even though Kun Yun gave him five hundred top-grade Divine Spirit Veins, he didn't think that all of these Divine Spirit Veins belonged to Mo Wuji. In his mind, if Mo Wuji could help him open his Dao Rhythm World, he would have made a huge profit. If Mo Wuji couldn't do that, he would eventually die. When Mo Wuji died, those Divine Spirit Veins would still be his, Kun Yun's.
The Suffering Soul didn't know this. If he did, he would definitely ask Mo Wuji for a thousand.
"Alright, go out and look for the things now. Come back to me for the transaction after you find them," the Suffering Soul waved his hand.
"No need, I have the things now." As he spoke, Mo Wuji took out a jade bottle and a ring and threw them to the Suffering Soul.
"Hongmeng Life Essence?" Before the Suffering Soul's divine sense could penetrate the ring, he excitedly grabbed the jade bottle, and even his body trembled.
Hongmeng Life Essence, that was Hongmeng Life Essence...
The Hongmeng Life Essence that he had dreamed of was being delivered to him. Even holding it in his hand, he still suspected that it was an illusion.
"This thing should be enough to nourish your physical body, right?" Mo Wuji said triumphantly.
The Suffering Soul's divine sense swept into the ring, and the ten top-grade Divine Spirit Veins were lying there. Each Divine Spirit Vein also carried a kind of aura of creation, definitely the aura of creation, this was a Divine Spirit Vein of creation. It was several levels higher than ordinary top-grade Divine Spirit Veins.
"Good stuff, good stuff..." The Suffering Soul said "good stuff" several times, and with a wave of his hand, he had already put the things into his world. No matter what Mo Wuji was about to say or do, he would definitely not take out the Hongmeng Life Essence and Divine Spirit Veins that he had obtained.
After taking the things, the way he looked at Mo Wuji was completely different. "Don't worry, as long as you can get Extreme Ice Heavenly Bamboo again..."
"No need, my Extreme Ice Heavenly Bamboo is already here." With a wave of Mo Wuji's hand, a crystal clear bamboo, more than a foot long, appeared in his palm. The leaves of the ice bamboo were like snowflakes in a fairy tale, with smooth six petals, a total of eight petals.
Originally, the Extreme Ice Heavenly Bamboo had nine bamboo leaves, but Mo Wuji had plucked one off. That bamboo leaf was lying in his Mortal World.
"Extreme Ice Heavenly Bamboo, it really is Extreme Ice Heavenly Bamboo..." The Suffering Soul's tone was more than just trembling, his eyes were full of extreme desire, longing to obtain the Extreme Ice Heavenly Bamboo. He had obtained both the Extreme Ice Heavenly Bamboo and the Hongmeng Life Essence at the same time, he could not only restore his full strength, but even go one step further.
As soon as Mo Wuji saw the Suffering Soul's expression, he knew that this thing was more useful to the Suffering Soul than he said.
"Quick, give it to me, give me the Extreme Ice Heavenly Bamboo." The Suffering Soul eagerly stretched out his handprint to grab the Extreme Ice Heavenly Bamboo.
Mo Wuji put away the Extreme Ice Heavenly Bamboo and snorted coldly, his whole body's momentum crushing over, and the Suffering Soul's handprint instantly collapsed.
"I respectfully call you senior, what do you mean by this? Of the three things, I first took out the Hongmeng Life Essence and top-grade Divine Spirit Veins for you. And now you haven't even shown me the Years Board, and you want me to give you the Extreme Ice Heavenly Bamboo, does such an exchange exist in the world? It's the first time I, Mo Wuji, have seen it." Mo Wuji's face was a little gloomy.
During this period of time, his Storage Channel had already locked onto this bamboo house. As long as the Suffering Soul dared to make a move, don't blame him for acting.
The Suffering Soul forcibly suppressed his excitement and said eagerly, "It's my fault..."
As he spoke, a disc appeared in his hand, the disc revealing a vast and ancient aura, carrying a strong Dao Rhythm of Time. Mo Wuji had been exposed to a lot of good things, and he had the Heaven and Earth Furnace on him. So as soon as he saw this disc, he knew that it must be the Years Board.
Mo Wuji nodded and grabbed the Extreme Ice Heavenly Bamboo again, stepping forward and said, "Let's exchange."
As he spoke, Mo Wuji moved his hand forward a little.
Even though the things in Mo Wuji's hand were what he urgently needed, the Suffering Soul hesitated at this moment of exchange.
The Years Board, his Years Board. Back then, it was by relying on this Years Board that he had crossed countless levels, and even the Saints were wary of him. He was able to become one of the four Dao Lords, not because of the dark rules he cultivated, but because of the Years Board.
Because of the Years Board, he could grow rapidly and then seize more cultivation resources.
Now he had to send the Years Board out, which was no less than bleeding in his heart.
He subconsciously looked at Mo Wuji. Mo Wuji's expression was calm and unwavering, as if he wasn't afraid of him going back on his word at all. The Suffering Soul sighed and still handed the Years Board forward a little hesitantly. Whether or not to exchange, he hadn't considered it properly in a hurry.
If his strength could be a little stronger, he would definitely forcibly keep Mo Wuji here today, kill Mo Wuji, and take away the things on Mo Wuji.
But his current strength had almost dropped to freezing point, just like the story Mo Wuji told earlier, now he was a mortal who was about to die of thirst in the desert.
