Chapter 942: They Actually Came to an Agreement?
"Continue." Ahlan was silent for a moment.
She wanted to hear what other ridiculous conditions this greedy Sky race member could propose.
"The second item, I want a willpower-type natural treasure," Wang Ye said. "Not for cultivation, but to directly strengthen and increase the level of willpower."
"For example, the Venerate-grade Swirling Water Jade, and the advanced Purple Cosmic Thunder."
"Yes, we'll use these as the standards."
"Same as the first condition, according to the level of strength, one by one."
The Strength race experts looked at each other.
They wondered whether he was discussing a deal or engaging in extortion.
He thought that he could ask for a treasure that could directly increase the grade of willpower!
They also lacked such treasures!
Ahlan took a deep breath.
She had underestimated this greedy Sky race member.
Not only was he greedy, but he was also knowledgeable. He even knew about the various treasures in the Primitive Cosmic Sea.
Beside him, Ayra covered his face in regret.
He was stupid!
He wondered why she gave this greedy Sky race member so many Primitive Cosmic Sea treasured books.
It opened up his greed!
Ayra thought, "Isn't this just setting ourselves up for disaster?"
"What about the third one?" Ahlan continued to ask.
She wanted to know what other heaven-defying conditions this greedy Sky race member could propose. "Let's see just how ridiculous he could be!"
"As long as the first two conditions are met, the third one is very simple." Wang Ye smiled and revealed his true intentions. "I want to know everything you know about the Primitive Cosmic Sea."
"At the same time, I want to know how to locate the Primitive Cosmic Sea."
"For the sake of sincere cooperation."
"You want to venture into the Primitive Cosmic Sea?" Ahlan's eyes flickered.
"Yes." Wang Ye didn't hide anything.
This was his main goal.
He knew that the Strength race wouldn't give him the first two exorbitant demands.
However, in a negotiation, he naturally raised the bid.
In the end, he would lower it so that the Strength race would feel his requests weren't that harsh. Only then would it be easier to negotiate.
After all, he wanted to make a deal with the Strength race, not destroy it.
He even wanted to help them!
He aimed to exacerbate the situation in the high-dimensional cosmic even further!
What did the Dark race have to do with him?
What did the Sky race's troubles have to do with him?
He only considered the interests of humanity.
The more chaotic the high-dimensional races, the better!
"The third condition is not a problem." Ahlan's heart relaxed a little.
Compared to the first two conditions, the third one was a gift. It wasn't difficult at all.
She had originally planned to reject the greedy Sky race member's ridiculous conditions.
After all, paying such a high price wasn't worth it. It was better to plan anew.
But now, it seemed it wasn't impossible to talk.
"But the first two conditions are not acceptable." Ahlan shook her head.
"I'll give you a 20% discount," Wang Ye said.
Ahlan shook her head.
"How about this? I'll take a loss. 30% off, okay?" Wang Ye said.
"It's not about the discount," Ahlan said. "It's just that your requirements are too harsh."
"Saint path martial techniques are our Strength race's secrets."
"If we tell you everything, what secrets will the Strength race have left from the Sky race?"
Wang Ye thought to himself. "The Strength race is indeed far-sighted."
They weren't just considering the Dark race. They still regarded the Sky race as an enemy.
They had ambitions in the high-dimensional cosmic.
"What if I say that no other Sky race member will know about the saint path martial techniques you give me?" Wang Ye asked.
He never intended to share the Strength Race's saint path martial techniques with the Sky Race, but he was willing to share them with humans.
"You want it for yourself?" Ahlan looked at Wang Ye thoughtfully.
"Yes." Wang Ye nodded. "I'm very eager to learn."
"Twenty percent," Ahlan said. "I'll give you a set for every five teleports."
"Five Supreme-level transmissions, and you're giving me a set of top-rank saint path martial techniques?" Wang Ye asked.
"Yes," Ahlan said.
Wang Ye thought, "Good heavens, you guys are going to turn the Dark Race upside down. At least five Supremes?"
He had underestimated the scale of the Strength race's plan.
"No, the lowest discount is 40%," Wang Ye said.
"25%," Ahlan bargained.
"50% off! It's a rock-bottom price!" Wang Ye gritted his teeth.
"Too many."
After some bargaining, they finally reached a consensus.
It ended with 33%.
Three high-grade Supremes were given a set of advanced-rank Saint Path martial techniques.
Three Supremes were given a set of top-rank Saint Path martial techniques.
Wang Ye was quite satisfied.
It was much higher than the price he had in mind.
"I don't trust you Sky race gods. When the time comes, I'll give you a Divine Oath Deed as a witness," Ahlan said.
"Sure." Wang Ye nodded.
This schemer was vigilant.
"Next, let's talk about the second condition," Ahlan said. "I won't beat around the bush. The Strength race doesn't have any of these things you mentioned. It's not that we don't have any, but they are very rare."
"What? Although these are precious in the Primitive Cosmic Sea, they aren't considered rare, right?" Wang Ye was surprised.
Ahlan looked at Wang Ye. "That's the Primitive Cosmic Sea. It gathers countless high-dimensional cosmic. Our Strength race is just a drop in the ocean. We're not eye-catching at all. It's even difficult for us to have a foothold."
"You haven't been there, so you don't know."
"Even the Chaos Gods of your Sky race are just considered powerful in the Primitive Cosmic Sea."
Wang Ye's eyes flickered.
Sky Race, Chaos Gods?
Were they the ones pretending to be gods in the Temple?
They exist!
"The strongest among the Sky race is the divine son, which is also a cosmic strongest expert," Wang Ye thought to himself.
In other words, Chaos Gods existed above the cosmic strongest experts!
However, in the Primitive Cosmic Sea, they were just considered powerful.
Wang Ye thought, "Good heavens, is it that dangerous? I'm even more interested!"
"You mean, you can't provide these willpower treasures?" Wang Ye asked.
"Yes, it's not possible to directly increase the grade," Ahlan said frankly. "But I can offer you something else."
Wang Ye pondered, "I'd be a fool to believe you. Your Strength Race is very cunning."
"The other high-dimensional cosmic have them. I don't need them." Wang Ye refused.
"Then there's no way to talk about it." Ahlan shook her head.
"Take your time to consider." Wang Ye wasn't in a hurry.
Both sides were in a stalemate.
Willpower treasures were very important!
There were four major barriers to breaking through from a peak Venerate to a Supreme.
The first was naturally the comprehension of the high-dimensional heavenly path.
Second, the small cosmic breaking through the four-dimensional boundary.
Third, the advanced life level.
Fourth, the advanced willpower.
Among them, the first threshold was oneself.
The third threshold was external objects.
The second and fourth thresholds could be achieved through either oneself or external objects.
There were many peak Venerates on the Primordial Star who had passed the first and second thresholds.
Although the third threshold was also very difficult, Primordial Star was a Primal Chaos Star, so it didn't lack advanced treasures of life.
In addition to the Origin Star, the ownerless Chieftain Star, and Nirvana Star.
Therefore, as long as one was willing to take the risk, advanced treasures of life could be found.
The hardest part was the advanced willpower!
The heavenly path of willpower itself was difficult to cultivate.
Previously, there were no huge chaos realms like the Yunyi Chaos Realm, Jueling Realm, or Mental Devil Realm that provided abundant cultivation environments for the great path of willpower.
Moreover, humans were a well-rounded race, having no particular weaknesses but also lacking any standout strengths, especially in willpower.
As a result, most peak Venerates were stuck at the fourth threshold.
This was also why, after the war between humans and devils, humans who occupied several huge willpower chaos realms suddenly produced many Supremes.
Because of their thick accumulation, breakthroughs in willpower were made, overcoming bottlenecks!
However, comprehension required opportunity, understanding, and time.
Even the formidable Venerate Ancient remained in seclusion!
Whether he could break through remained uncertain.
The second senior sister was similarly stuck at the peak of Venerate's willpower.
Although treasures directly elevating willpower grades were hazardous, once successful, they merged, possessing willpower comparable to other advanced ranks!
Brief, clear, swift results!
For long-stuck peak Venerates, they were akin to divine medicine!
To the Primordial Star, it presently lacked an overseeing Supreme. This was the most crucial support, like a timely lifeline!
That was why he proposed this condition.
"I really can't produce it." Ahlan shook her head. "You'll know when you visit the Primitive Cosmic Sea in the future. These aren't rare items, but they're quite expensive."
"Not even 33%?" Wang Ye blinked.
Ahlan sighed.
After a brief thought, Wang Ye proposed, "How about this? I'll accept replacements, but I require three advanced rank willpower treasures like Purple Cosmic Thunder."
Ahlan deliberated for a while, then added, "I can give you one."
"Three, not a single one less." Wang Ye insisted. "That's my bottom line. The rest is negotiable."
"One is my bottom line," Ahlan replied. "We really can't produce them."
Both sides faced off again, refusing to budge.
Watching this tug-of-war, Strength race experts sighed.
They had assumed the greedy Sky race was making outrageous demands, yet after negotiations, it seemed they were nearing an agreement.
Ayra also smiled wryly.
Could the two sides cooperate?
No, they were almost done!
...
After intense back-and-forth, they settled on two.
This was Wang Ye's acceptable limit.
One for Venerate Ancient, one for Second Senior Sister.
He disregarded others like Venerate Primeval, Venerate Zhu Lu, and Venerate Pipa.
He was unfamiliar with them.
They still settled on the 33% pricing.
Replacing Venerate rank with willpower recovery and cultivation-type natural treasures.
For advanced ranks, apart from two Purple Cosmic Thunders, others were swapped for advanced life treasures.
The preliminary deal was struck!
After hashing out the details and transaction process, Wang Ye and Ahlan finalized their agreement.
"How long will this take?" Wang Ye inquired.
Gathering the Divine Oath Deed, Purple Cosmic Thunder, and other advanced treasures would take time for the Strength race.
From his perspective, the Strength race sought to alter their original plans.
Now, with their cooperation, the Strength race could operate openly rather than resorting to clandestine methods.
This expanded the plan's potential.
It aligned with his intentions.
The bigger the uproar, the better!
"The shortest could be ten thousand years, the longest a hundred thousand," Ahlan responded.
"Alright." Wang Ye nodded.
He needed this time to prepare and stabilize everything, including reaching the level of High Dimension Lord.
Ahlan's description of the Primitive Cosmic Sea was far grander, perilous, and exhilarating than he had imagined!
He was looking for it!
