Chapter 555: Moonsilver Pinecone

[You always exhaust yourself whenever you use the heavenly laws.] Shen Xu transmitted as soon as Zhen Yuan returned to the waiting room.

[How are you?] He asked.

[One quarter of my qi is gone but I am otherwise fine.] Zhen Yuan said and the double nodded.

[Rest.] He said but Zhen Yuan shook his head.

[We need to collect our winnings and then wager on your match.] He said and Shen Xu smiled with an eager expression.

[Let’s go.] He said and turned to Zhou Xuan.

"We want to collect our winnings. How about you?" He asked.

"I will also go." Zhou Xuan said, also looking happy.

After all, his ten million wager had just turned into two hundred and fifty million immortal stones.

Generally, swordsmen and martial artists were powerful but they were usually poor.

Because of this, Zhou Xuan was happy after earning more than one hundred million in Jieshou city, and now two hundred and fifty million in Qianshan city.

’Why do I feel that my luck is unusually good recently?’ He wondered but didn’t dwell on it.

After that, the three left the waiting room and soon entered the betting room.

"Fellow immortal, we have come for our winnings." Shen Xu said and handed over his deposit token.

Seeing the three, the clerk sighed and a hint of envy flashed in his eyes.

However, he quickly suppressed his envy and took the token.

"You bet one hundred million on Law, and won two billion and five hundred million. The colloseum will charge a commission of five per cent which amounts to one hundred and twenty five million.The remaining is two billion and three hundred and seventy five million immortal stones. Please confirm." The clerk said and handed over a storage bag.

After taking the bag, Shen Xu confirmed the amount and transferred the immortal stones to his storage ring before returning the storage.

"Thank you for your help." He said and transferred one hundred immortal stones to the clerk.

After receiving the tip, the clerk smiled but soon looked at the three with solemn eyes.

"You must be careful these days." He reminded and the others nodded.

After that, Zhen Yuan and Zhou Xuan received their winnings and also tipped the clerk.

When that was done, they each wagered one hundred million on Shen Xu’s firght before exiting the room.

"The odds are still twenty five to one." The double said with an excited face.

"This is probably our last chance to make so much money on a single fight." Zhen Yuan said and Shen Xu nodded in understanding.

After their first fight in the Qianshan city’s colloseum, more spectators would lean towards them and eventually, the large margin would disappear and the odds would even out.

Shen Xu and Zhen Yuan were right.

After a few fights, the odds decreased from twenty five to one and began hovering between five to one and one to one.

That said, Shen Xu, Zhen Yuan, and Zhou Xuan still made a lot of immortal stones before exiting the colloseum.

"Manman, we still have three days before the reunion. Is there something you want to do?" Zhou Xuan asked and Zhou Man nodded.

"I want to sell some pills and buy materials. I also want to see if I can find some cultivation resources for my fox." She said.

"The Myriad Treasures Pavillion has the most treasures. We can try there." Zhou Xuan suggested and the others agreed.

[This Zhou Man always speaks what’s on my mind.] Shen Xu transmitted and Zhen Yuan smiled.

[It’s a good thing. That way, we won’t have to suggest activities.] The man said and quickly continued.

[How many immortal stones do we have?] He asked.

[Twenty eight billion and change.] Shen Xu said and raised his chain proudly.

[What’s your plan?] Zhen Yuan asked.

[I will know when I see the treasures in the Myriad Treasures Pavillion.] The double said and Zhen Yuan nodded.

The main branch of Qianshan City’s Myriad Treasure Pavillion was a five storey building.

After entering, the four found out that the first floor had qi refining realm to tribulation transcending realm resources.

In the same vein, the second floor had void immortal realm resources, the third floor had true immortal resources, the fourth floor had heaven immortal realm resources, and the fifth floor had precious treasures that could only be bought with other treasures in addition to immortal stones.

Since the Zhou siblings were true immortal realm cultivators, the four went to the third floor after quickly perusing the first and second floors.

[Ayuan, have you seen any precious treasures?] Shen Xu asked and Zhen Yuan nodded.

[Quite a few but all are unsuitable for our cultivation.] The man said and the double sighed with a helpless expression.

The third floor had countless resources.

After looking around for one quarter of an hour, Zhou Man found a suitable treasure to help her advance but Zhou Xuan wasn’t so lucky.

Eventually, the group climbed to the fourth floor and Zhou Man bought several treasures for her fox.

’I am almost out of immortal stones but atleast the resources are enough to raise the fox to the late-stage of level eleven.’ Zhou Man thought with a satisfied expression.

"Let’s go to the fifth floor." Zhou Xuan urged and the group immediately went to the stairs.

Soon after, they arrived on the fifth floor and began looking around.

[Xiaoxu, the third item on the ninth shelf is a treasure.] Zhen Yuan transmitted and Shen Xu turned to look.

The ninth item looked like a pinecone and the name on its stand was moonsilver pinecone.

Moonsilver pinecone was a rare elixir refining material. However, its only use was refining the antidote for the silverwolf poison.

Because the silverwolf poison was lethal, the moonsilver pinecone could be considered a precious treasure but it wasn’t a very desirable treasure unless one was poisoned.

Thinking this, Shen Xu looked at Zhen Yuan and raised an eyebrow.

[It’s not a moonsilver pinecone.] Zhen Yuan said and quickly continued.

[The cone has exactly one hundred and eight scales, and each scale has a purple tip.] He hinted and after a moment of thought, the double’s eyes widened in realisation.
