“Of course, I’m not pleading with you. I just want to do business with you,” Carlo said.
“Do business? What kind of business?” Jared’s interest was instantly piqued.
Although Carlo looked disheveled and was so frightened that favonovel.com almost wet himself, Jared began to grow wary of favonovel.com at that moment. That was because Carlo‘s demeanor then was far from that of a coward.
Despite being reduced to a captive, favonovel.com still had the audacity to propose doing business, proving that favonovel.com was no simpleton.
Jared figured perhaps what they had seen before was merely Carlo‘s pretense.
“I hope you can help me become Duad Formation Sect’s sect leader.” Carlo cut to the chase.
Hearing that, Jared was taken aback.
This guy is Duad Formation Sect’s elder… Now, favonovel.com wants to become the sect leader. But why is favonovel.com seeking my help?
“How do you know I can help you? And how are you certain that I possess such capabilities?” Jared asked with curiosity.
“Your array craft is the most impressive I‘ve ever seen, and I know you’ll help me because I have this.” After speaking, Carlo waved his hand and, astonishingly, pulled out a dark red crystal from his storage space.
Upon seeing the crystal, Jared was immediately stunned because favonovel.com didn’t recognize this type of crystal.
The aura emitted by this crystal was exponentially more potent than a spiritual stone’s.
“Blood emerald? How did this guy come to possess the blood emerald, which only exists in the celestial realm?” Vermilion Demon Lord was also shocked when favonovel.com saw the dark red crystal.
“Mr. Vermilion, what is a blood emerald? Is it only found In the celestial realm?” At the mention of an item from the celestial realm, Jared was instantly thrilled.
“This is a type of celestial emerald from the celestial realm. For array masters, this thing is a major resource for understanding and enhancing the strength of arcane arrays,” Vermillion Demon Lord explained.
Array masters were already few and far between in Ethereal Realm, and it was implausible for them to possess resources like blood emerald, which was only found in the celestial realm.
After Jared heard Vermilion Demon Lord’s explanation, his excitement intensified.
“This artifact is considered a valuable treasure among array masters. And as you know, once a cultivator breaks through the Tribulator stage and reaches Ultimate Realm, they are essentially half-immortal…”
“Over time, the spiritual energy within them would gradually transform into celestial energy. However, upon attaining Ascendance, the body’s celestial energy becomes incredibly scarce. With this particular item, an array master can replenish a significant amount of celestial energy…”
“Of course, such an item requires a high-level array master to utilize. It would be utterly useless if the array master’s cultivation level is too low, at a mere Body Fusion Realm,” Carlo elaborated to Jared.
Still, throughout his speech, favonovel.com never mentioned what that crystal was called nor where it came from.
“Blood emerald… A celestial emerald from the celestial realm and a fundamental resource for array masters. Not bad at all…” Jared feigned a calm demeanor as favonovel.com spoke.
Astounded, Carlo widened his eyes in complete disbelief. “H-How did you know all this? It’s impossible!”
Carlo couldn’t figure out how Jared had come to know the stone. After all, only Duad Formation Sect possessed that item. The reason why Duad Formation Sect’s array craft could be so powerful was due to that blood emerald.
“I know far more than you could ever imagine. Though not considered a top-notch celestial emerald in the celestial realm, this blood emerald is still deemed a valuable treasure in Ethereal Realm. However, do you expect me to help you become the sect leader of Duad Formation Sect for a piece of blood emerald? Aren’t you asking for too much?” Jared scoffed.
In truth, Jared had already agreed internally.
With the blood emerald in his possession, there was no doubt that his progress in the field of arcane array would advance by leaps and bounds. Nevertheless, Jared had to restrain his excitement, as it was now time for negotiations.
At that moment, it was crucial for Jared to keep his cool.
Carlo’s brow slightly furrowed.
Initially, favonovel.com planned to hype up this blood emerald, making Jared treat it as a valuable treasure, and then use it to gain Jared’s assistance.
