Chapter 2721: Mysterious Sound Stone (None Today)

Spirit Flames are highly versatile, playing a significant role in combat, artifact refining, pill concoction, and talisman crafting, making them very popular among cultivators.

The advancement of Spirit Flames is similar to that of cultivators: the higher their rank, the more difficult it becomes to advance. When Wang Changsheng first merged five types of rank-five Spirit Flames, he obtained the rank-six Glazed Ice Flame. In the years since, he has acquired and refined several additional clumps of rank-six Spirit Flames into it, but the Glazed Ice Flame has not yet advanced to rank seven. It is estimated that a significant quantity of rank-six Spirit Flames must be refined before the Glazed Ice Flame can potentially advance to rank seven.

"I'm looking to trade for Firegang Crystals or materials of equivalent value, with priority given to calamity-passing materials."

Xie Ying's gaze swiftly swept over the cultivators present. Firegang Crystals were as precious as Silvergang Crystals, and calamity-passing materials were even more valuable. However, it had been less than five hundred years since she survived her Grand Heavenly Tribulation, so her next one was still a long way off.

The red jade bottle glowed with a dazzling red light, emitting a stream of red mist that enveloped the golden flame, pulling it back into the red jade bottle. She then resealed the stopper.

The most precious material Wang Changsheng possessed was the Nine-Light Divine Clay, followed by rank-seven demon cores and Sky Starwood. As for spirit medicines over thirty thousand years old, he didn't have many on hand.

Song Yunlong took out a cyan jade box, handed it to Xie Ying, and his lips moved slightly.

Xie Ying opened the lid of the box, took a quick glance, her face showing delight, and then handed the red jade bottle to Song Yunlong.

Wang Changsheng said nothing. Song Yunlong had entered the Integration Stage relatively early, so he must have collected some valuable items.

The cultivators then stepped forward in turns, presenting their materials and stating what they wished to trade for.

Most were unable to successfully complete a trade. This wasn't because other Integration Stage cultivators didn't possess the items needed, but rather because the other party deemed the offer insufficient. A successful trade required mutual satisfaction.

After about the time it takes to brew a cup of tea, Lin Sen of the Xuanqing Sect brought out dozens of materials, among which a beautifully crafted silver jade box caught the attention of all the cultivators.

The collection included eight types of Dharma Idol materials, twenty types of rank-seven materials, and two bottles of rank-seven pills.

Lin Sen opened the cyan jade box and took out a shimmering golden stone. Its surface featured mysterious, naturally formed patterns. Upon closer inspection, these patterns closely resembled musical notes.

"The Profound Sound Stone, one of the Ten Great Odd Stones!"

Xie Ying exclaimed in surprise, her eyes glowing with fervor.

The Profound Sound Stone is one of the Ten Great Odd Stones. It can weaken the power of sonic attacks, and if refined into a treasure, it can effectively counter sound-based cultivators.

The Yaksha race possesses formidable physical bodies and also commands sonic attacks. Having a treasure refined from a Profound Sound Stone would significantly increase one's chances of victory against the Yaksha race.

"These two bottles contain the Azure Profound Jade Ganoderma Pill and the Profound Moon Pill, respectively. The Azure Profound Jade Ganoderma Pill is for healing, while the Profound Moon Pill enhances magical power and is refined using the twenty-thousand-year-old Profound Moon Flower as its primary ingredient. I'm looking to trade these items for calamity-passing materials or mid-grade heaven-reaching spirit treasures of the defensive type. Materials of equivalent value are also acceptable."

Lin Sen spoke slowly, his gaze sweeping over Xie Ying and the others, but not lingering on Wang Changsheng.

Since the exchange began, Wang Changsheng had rarely made an offer to trade. This was understandable, as he had not been in the Integration Stage for long and operated independently. Most of the Integration Stage cultivators present hailed from major sects or influential families.

Wang Changsheng did wish to acquire the Profound Sound Stone, but aside from his Nine-Light Divine Clay, his other materials were insufficient to trade for it.

Just because he couldn't produce the item didn't mean other Integration Stage cultivators couldn't.

Several cultivators immediately sent mental messages to Lin Sen and took out treasures for him to examine.
