"Not exactly," Li Yun sipped his tea and vaguely replied. If Yang Qiu were here, he would definitely recognize this formation because it originated from the Azure Water Cliff—one of the killing formations, to be precise. The system provided methods for both breaking and setting up formations. Selling one opportunity as three was a profitable deal.
"This, this, this…" The Great Wilderness City Lord's mouth was dry, and the hand holding the formation diagram trembled slightly. He muttered, "This is too precious!"
This was a Saint Grade formation! Some medium-sized sects didn't even possess a Saint Grade formation. How could a small city like his Great Wilderness City have one? More importantly, he couldn't afford it. He only had a piece of Ten Thousand Years Old Eternal Wood, which, although a Saint Grade material, couldn't compare to the value of a complete Saint Grade formation.
"It's a simplified version. Its power is at most at the level of a Holy Lord," Li Yun explained.
"So it's a Holy Lord Grade…" The Great Wilderness City Lord couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. If it was truly a Saint Grade formation, he wouldn't dare to buy it, nor could he afford it. But Holy Lord Grade was much more manageable. He gritted his teeth, and it seemed like he could still make the purchase.
With this formation, the Great Wilderness City will be able to have some confidence to face the Holy Lord-level figures in the future. As expected, senior was still favoring the Great Wilderness City.
Great Wilderness City Lord felt a little emotional. Senior said that he didn't want to shelter the Great Wilderness City, but in fact, he gave a Holy Lord Level formation. Isn't this protecting the Great Wilderness City in disguise?
"Have you considered it? Do you want to buy this formation?" Li Yun asked.
"Buy!" The Great Wilderness City Lord said decisively. He was tired of feeling helpless, and this time, he would spare no effort to make the purchase. For the development of Great Wilderness City, strong formations were inevitable, and this opportunity was too good to pass up.
"Senior, please wait. I'll go gather some spirit stones and be back soon," the Great Wilderness City Lord quickly said.
"No need," Li Yun raised his hand and pointed outside, and said, "Just one piece of Ten Thousand Years Old Eternal Wood is enough."
Hmm… After all, it's a Saint Grade material. Li Yun was quite tempted. It was worth over nine thousand Secret Points; how could he let it pass?
"Just one piece of Ten Thousand Years Old Eternal Wood?" The Great Wilderness City Lord was momentarily stunned, then delightedly shouted, "Han Feng!"
"Here!" Han Feng walked in, holding a wooden box.
"Hurry!" The Great Wilderness City Lord waved and said, "Quickly present the Ten Thousand Years Old Eternal Wood to the senior!"
Though Saint Grade materials were precious, for Great Wilderness City, they were like leftovers. The highest cultivation level in their City Lord's mansion was only at the Divine Power Realm.
Holding onto Saint Grade materials was unnecessary, and they had to be cautious every day, fearing that news of them having Saint Grade materials would arouse the greed of higher-level cultivators. Now, exchanging a hot potato for a Holy Lord Grade formation was an excellent deal.
"Yes!" Han Feng slightly bowed, holding the wooden box, and brought it in front of Li Yun.
"Ten Thousand Years Old Eternal Wood…" Li Yun reached out, took the box, and pulled out a palm-sized black piece of wood. It felt icy to the touch, like holding an ice cube. The material was incredibly tough; he squeezed it with force, leaving no trace.
"Saint Grade materials are indeed excellent, but unfortunately, I can't use them…" Li Yun sighed and directly exchanged it for Secret Points. He could buy any treasure he needed directly from the system store; there was no need for him to refine them himself.
After exchanging the Ten Thousand Years Old Eternal Wood, he checked the system panel.
Secret Points: 51,200.
Breaking through the 50,000 mark for the first time without giving a single point to the system made him feel extremely satisfied.
"If I want to exchange for the follow-up of the Heavenly Emperor Scripture, I still need a lot more. If I want to exchange for a Divine Art, I'll need even more. The road ahead is long and arduous!" Li Yun thought.
"Senior…" At this moment, the Great Wilderness City Lord put away the formation diagram and said softly, "If there's nothing else, I'll take my leave."
"Take care, both of you," Li Yun said with a smile. He was patient with his clients; who knew, they might continue to provide him with a steady stream of Secret Points in the future. For example, Yang Qiu…
…
Outside Heavenly Secret Pavilion, the Great Wilderness City Lord took out the formation diagram and carefully examined it again. As expected, with this Holy Lord Grade formation, Great Wilderness City would be the most secure stronghold within a radius of tens of thousands of miles.
What did cultivators, especially lone cultivators, need the most? A sense of security! No one wanted to stay in a city that could be destroyed at any moment. Originally, Great Wilderness City was such a place, making its development difficult, and few people were willing to settle there.
However, with this formation diagram, the situation changed. The sense of security from a Holy Lord Grade formation could attract countless people to come. Once people arrived, Great Wilderness City would naturally thrive. With prosperity, the City Lord's mansion could develop…
After it develops, it won't be impossible to consider the complete Saint Grade formation in the hands of the senior. Envisioning a bright future, the Great Wilderness City Lord took out a blank jade slip, rapidly recording numerous formation materials, and then tossed it to Han Feng behind him.
"Commander Han, quickly gather these materials. In three days, I want this formation to appear above Great Wilderness City!"
