Chapter 620: Chapter 614: Five Elements Soil
Ignoring the presence of the Firewood Kylin, David Jones became lost in thought as he identified the information from the Illusion-Piercing Eye.
[Severely Energy-Damaged Soul-Refining Bodhi Sapling (Becoming Mystified)]: A Level VII S tier mesona that has been seriously damaged due to the lack of Mystery Power energy, resulting in a significant fall in its grade. If it does not absorb sufficient Mystery Power within a day, it will violently mutate into a Mysterious Beast of the Plant type, a King.
Note: Fate has already decided everything. Existences that start down the path of mystification have no road of return.
“Fate, huh? That’s Daphne’s forte!”
David Jones shifted his gaze and looked down towards Daphne, who was curiously watching the Kylin, and thought to her, “Use the Eye of Destiny on the Bodhi sapling.”
“Meow!” (๑*◡*๑) (No problem!)
Daphne nodded slightly, her crimson solar-bright eyes suddenly revealing obscure and mysterious ancient silver runes.
In an instant, the gathered little ones all turned their attention to Daphne, whose air had greatly changed; even David Jones felt a twinge of nervousness in his heart.
If even the once-a-year use of the Eye of Destiny couldn’t find a way to save the Bodhi sapling, then David Jones would have no choice but to regretfully give up.
Several seconds later, Daphne squinted her eyes and transferred all of the observed destinies to David Jones’ mind through her thoughts.
[Eight-jeweled Bodhi (Red)]: As an offspring of the Treasured Bodhi Tree, the Soul-Refining Bodhi has the potential to become the Eight-jeweled Bodhi.
[Enlightenment Stars Rise (Purple)]: At the rising of the morning star, at dawn, the Bodhi Tree can release the concept of reincarnation, freeing itself from the suffering of life span, and also plunging a strong person sitting beneath it into a state of sudden enlightenment.
[Mystery Power Entwined (Black)]: Life in peril, the flame of life about to be extinguished.
[Most Recent Opportunity]: Sacred Flame Body Burning Fate Change, Breaking and Casting.
[Recent Destiny]: Fire above brings great misfortune, Earth below brings great luck.
[Future Achievement]: ???
“So it’s breaking and establishing, huh?” David Jones muttered to himself, his eyes gradually firming up as he vanished on the spot with Daphne.
“He really is a boy full of big talk,” the Firewood Kylin laughed as it watched them go.
It almost believed that David Jones really had the ability to heal the Soul-Refining Bodhi; it appears it had overestimated him.
…
“Gluttonous Beast, search for any news on the Five Elements Soil. Also, help me post a public purchase request for the Five Elements Soil on the official website of Rosewood College.”
As David Jones’ voice fell, Gluttonous Beast’s eyes immediately shone, complex streams of information flowing through its mind.
“Buzz!”
The phone notification rang out, and David Jones looked down to check it.
Jedbrook Harvey: “I’ve already made an appointment with two Blacksmith Masters, ready to visit at any time. Do you have time today, senior David?”
David Jones frowned slightly, quickly recalling that this person was the new teammate introduced by Miss Tracy.
“You’ve worked hard, my issue has already been resolved. Please help me cancel the appointment.”
…
Elsewhere, in the spacious Battle Square.
A man with slender build and squinty eyes was anxiously staring at his phone, while a petite and gentle-looking girl stood beside him.
When Jedbrook Harvey saw the message, his heart turned cold in an instant.
“Damn, I was just a step too late!”
Hearing him, the gentle girl glanced at him, her voice laced with urgency.
“What’s too late?”
Jedbrook Harvey sighed, “Sorry, Sanne, David’s issue has been resolved and he might not have time to visit Master Daphne and introduce her to our team—that plan’s off.”
Upon hearing this, a look of disappointment instantly covered Sanne’s face.
Ever since the news of Senior David breaking through to the King tier spread, all students of Rosewood College believed that this year’s National Trainer Cooperative Competition championship would undoubtedly belong to the Rosewood team.
Countless students looking to rub shoulders with national champions and bask in their glory came forward, and she was one of them.
There was no helping it—this year’s national competition was being held in Rosewood City, and almost no student from Rosewood wanted to miss the chance to make a name for themselves in the presence of the school’s students and faculty.
After all, a championship won by association is still a championship!
“It’s okay!” Sanne forced a smile.
Looking at the delicate girl before him, Jedbrook Harvey didn’t bother with too much politeness and nodded, ready to leave.
However, a message on his phone made him halt in his tracks.
“Five Elements Soil?”
Jedbrook blinked and turned back quickly to look at Sanne, who was about to disappear into the distance with a forlorn silhouette.
As a Level VII Epic resource, the Five Elements Soil had the ability to harmonize the Yin and Yang and balance the Five Elements.
Some mesona Grandmasters and Pharmacy Grandmasters liked to use it to cultivate special Five Elements mesona. Naturally, Jedbrook did not possess such high-level resources.
Besides being used to cultivate elixirs, Five Elements Soil could also be used to forge five elements pet beast armor.
Therefore, some Blacksmith Masters would have a certain amount in reserve, and he knew that Master Daphne acquired two portions of it at an auction last year.
As for purchasing it on short notice, Jedbrook thought it was too late.
Because of the Five Elements Treasure Fungus, the Rosewood Trainer Guild had been buying up Five Elements Soil. Plus, Senior David was in urgent need; few could produce Five Elements Soil within a day.
Realizing this, Jedbrook Harvey quickly caught up to the girl as her figure was about to vanish.
“Wait, Sanne, let’s talk again!”
…
David only had a rough idea of his current reputation and didn’t possess a crystal-clear understanding of it.
But today, David finally experienced the terrifying appeal a top-tier talent could have.
In just five minutes, his phone buzzed dozens of times like crazy.
The rare Level VII Epic resource, Five Elements Soil, seemed as common as dirt on the road—everyone seemed to have it. Within just minutes, there were already eleven trainers who reached out to negotiate terms with him.
David had only posted the buying information on Rosewood College’s resource exchange website, not the Trainer Guild’s official site. Thus, the trainers able to see the message were mostly Rosewood students, clearly indicating that those willing to trade were backed by powerful trainers.
“Indeed, just having Star coins is useless; only trainers who have reached a certain tier have access to top-grade resources,” David mused.
Previously, the Gluttonous Beast had searched through hundreds of pet stores and auction houses in Rosewood City, only to receive cold replies that “the resource is sold out and awaiting restocking.”
Without comparison, one can be ignorant, but once David made the comparison, he felt the plight of a common trainer struggling to find resources.
“They really think they can get me to work for them for ten years with just two portions of Five Elements Soil!”
David glanced over the terms sent by the other party, decisively deleted the email, and didn’t even wish to negotiate.
Those who managed to find his private number so quickly were trainers with extraordinary backgrounds, yet the value of two portions of Five Elements Soil was too low—let alone ten years, David wasn’t even considering it for a single month.
Swiftly filtering out some unreasonable exchange requests, the message from Jedbrook Harvey finally caught David’s eye.
“A five-year team slot and a Class VI longevity elixir that’s different from the mainstream ones on the market?”
David stroked his chin; among all the offers, this was the one with the least demanding terms and most appealing.
