They headed north.

Chen Daoxuan stopped above the reefs where he had traded last time.

Chen Daoxuan looked at the endless sea and slowly descended.

“The merman race and 1 always trade while standing, it seems a little tense.”

Chen Daoxuan said silently.

Trading with the merfolk clan was a long-term business for the Chen family. It was definitely not something that would be given up after one or two transactions.

Chen Daoxuan still wanted to use the merfolk clan’s power to open the treasures in the underwater world of the Infinite Star Sea.

He would not give up on the merfolk market no matter what.

Since he did not want to give up, it was very important to have a good relationship with the other party.

Fortunately, the merfolk had a good impression of him during the last transaction. This time, the scene of them fighting each other would not appear again.

“Why don’t we build a pavilion on the sea here?”

He looked at the reef at the bottom of the sea. The most prominent part had already extended to the surface of the sea, enough to serve as the foundation of the pavilion.

He did as he was told.

Chen Daoxuan slapped his storage pouch and took out the Scarlet Shadow Flying Sword. He infused it with Genuine Qi, and a three-foot-long sword projection shot out from his body.

Shua!

Under the control of his consciousness, the scarlet shadow flying sword slashed toward the reef at the bottom of the sea.

Very quickly.

A huge rock that was as white as jade was sliced into two by the Scarlet Shadow Flying Sword.

The fracture of the reef was as smooth as jade, and there were no traces of cutting at all.

Chen Daoxuan nodded in satisfaction and continued to control the flying sword to cut along the stone.

According to his imagination.

Chen Daoxuan kept using his flying sword to polish the rock in front of him.

An hour later.

Chen Daoxuan built a crudely made pavilion on the reef foundation of the sea.

From afar.

The pavilion seemed to be floating on the surface of the sea. If one ignored its rough workmanship, it looked interesting.

He stepped into the pavilion.

Chen Daoxuan looked around and felt that something was missing.

He took out another piece of stone from the bottom of the sea. After a few twists and turns, he made a stone table and two stone stools.

Immediately after.

Chen Daoxuan used a fire control technique to evaporate the water in the pavilion.

Under the cover of the water vapor, the pavilion on the sea was like a fairyland in a dream.

“I still feel that it’s not that interesting!”

Chen Daoxuan rubbed his chin and muttered.

Then, he soared into the air and flew around the pavilion a few times. Finally, he realized that something was missing.

“I didn’t give you a name!”

Chen Daoxuan’s eyes lit up as he smiled.

With a flash of sword light, in the blink of an eye, the words “Sea-viewing Pavilion” appeared above the stone pavilion.

From the time he decided to build this pavilion to the time it was built, it took him less than two hours.

This kind of work efficiency was terrifying even in his previous life.

But Chen Daoxuan knew that this was the power of cultivators.

The power of cultivators was not only shown in their powerful destructive power, but also in their powerful productivity.

For example, only cultivators could cultivate ling fields.

If ordinary mortals were to plant ling fields, even if they put in all their effort, they would not be able to plant even one mu of ling fields.

This was because spirit rice was different from ordinary rice.

Its stalks were extremely tough and could only be cut by cultivators with magic tools, let alone the more difficult task of peeling the shells.

Therefore, he had no choice.

Even cultivators had to learn to plant ling fields.

Among cultivators, cultivators who knew how to plant ling fields were called ling plant farmers. Although this profession wasn’t as popular as pill masters, artifact masters, formation masters, and talisman masters, they were all very talented.

However, among the group of itinerant cultivators, he could be considered tall, rich, and handsome.

The spirit stones a ling plant farmer earned in a year was at least several times higher than a rogue cultivator who didn’t know anything.

Of course.

In Guang ‘an Prefecture, because most itinerant cultivators did not have ling veins, even if they knew how to plant ling fields, they could only be tenants for large cultivation clans.

With the exploitation of the cultivation clans in the Infinite Star Sea, these ling plant farmers could barely earn a few spirit stones in a year.

This also caused the interest of the secret practitioners in learning how to grow ling fields to greatly decrease.

Late at night.

They waited for a whole day.

Only then did the merfolk race arrive.

As expected.

This time, Luo Li came alone. As for the subordinates she brought, they were all arranged by her to stay among the reefs at the bottom of the sea.

He didn’t let a group of strong mermen surround Chen Daoxuan like last time, wanting to suppress him in terms of aura.

“Chen Daoxuan, I’m here!”

Luo Li, who had emerged from the sea, looked at the stone pavilion built by Chen Daoxuan curiously. Finally, she jumped up and sat on the stone bench.

Seeing this scene, Chen Daoxuan was slightly curious.

He could not help but look down at Luo Li.

Unexpectedly, before he could see clearly, he was caught red-handed by the other party.

Luo Li looked at him strangely and tilted her head. “”What are you looking at?”

“Ahem, nothing,”

Chen Daoxuan tried to cover up his embarrassment. Then, he smiled and said,” We meet again, Miss Luo Li.”

Seeing him like this, Luo Li did not probe further even though she was feeling a little apprehensive.

Then, she thought of something. She looked at the pavilion and looked at Chen Daoxuan.”Did you build this pavilion?”

“Yes!”

Chen Daoxuan nodded.

“So ugly.”

Hearing this, Chen Daoxuan revealed an awkward but polite smile.

Seeing him like this, Luo Li covered her mouth and chuckled. “”However, you are quite diligent.”

“Of course you have to be careful. After all, your merman clan is a big customer of my Chen family.”

Chen Daoxuan said with a smile.

The two of them exchanged a few pleasantries before Chen Daoxuan got down to business and said,Miss Luo, how many flying swords do you plan to buy this time?”

Hearing Chen Daoxuan talk about serious matters, Luo Li sat up straight and said, “”Naturally, the more the better. The weapons you sold to our merfolk clan last time were very good, but the quantity was a little too little.

This time, we need to buy more weapons.”

After a pause, she added,” We’ll take as many as you have.”

Chen Daoxuan couldn’t help but be overjoyed when he heard these inhumane words.

He pondered for a moment.

Chen Daoxuan slapped his storage pouch.

Flying swords that were overflowing with spiritual light piled up in the pavilion until they formed a small mountain.

Looking at the flying sword under her feet, Luo Li’s beautiful eyes were filled with greed, as if she was a little money-grubber who had seen a gold ingot.

She took a deep breath and said,”There are more flying swords this time than last time.”.

“That’s right,”

Chen Daoxuan nodded.” This time, we have more time to prepare. With the addition of sufficient materials, the number is indeed several times more than last time. There are a total of 350 flying swords here.”

Upon hearing this, Luo Li’s pretty face showed a hint of embarrassment.

” What’s wrong? Is there a problem with Miss Luo? ”

Chen Daoxuan saw the change in her expression and made a concerned gesture.

Luo Li shook her head and said,” Oh, right. Didn’t you say that you could use spirit ores to pay the bill? ” The spirit stones we prepared this time might not be enough. See if you can use spirit ores to offset it.”

Luo Li’s voice became softer and softer as she spoke.

Chen Daoxuan’s heart sank when he heard this.

He was still hoping to earn 100,000 spirit stones quickly from the merfolk clan and return to Shuanghu Island to cultivate the spirit vein.

Unexpectedly, there seemed to be a new change in the situation.

“How many Spiritual Stones can Miss Luo take out this time?” he asked without batting an eyelid..
