Chapter 5865
After leaving Wanbaoge
, David and the Crimson Cloud Demon Lord did not immediately return to the inn. Instead, they strolled around Sandstone City, familiarizing themselves with the surroundings and trying to inquire about Earth Core Jade Marrow Milk through other channels.
They visited several smaller shops and stalls, but received similar answers: they had heard of it, but had never seen it, and didn’t know its exact location.
“It seems that the Earth Core Jade Marrow Milk is indeed rare,”
the Crimson Cloud Demon Lord sighed. “Even cultivators at the eleventh level of the Heavenly Realm know very little about it.”
David nodded: “After all, it’s a rare treasure that only yields a drop every ten thousand years. I’m afraid only top-tier forces or ancient monsters who have lived for countless years know the exact clues.”
“We’re new here, so it’s not easy to find out.”
Just as the two were feeling somewhat discouraged and were preparing to return to the inn to discuss things further, a voice sounded behind them:
“Fellow Daoists, are you looking for the Earth Core Jade Marrow Milk?”
David’s heart skipped a beat, and he turned around abruptly.
The speaker was a scholar in a blue robe who looked to be about thirty years old. He was fair-skinned and beardless, with an ordinary appearance, but his eyes were exceptionally bright, carrying a shrewdness unique to merchants.
His aura was calm, and his cultivation was at the fifth rank of the Heavenly Immortal Realm. He was smiling at David and the other man, his attitude friendly.
“And you are?”
David asked calmly, while his divine sense quietly swept over the other man.
He didn’t detect any obvious malice or abnormal aura, but his intuition, honed over many years of experience, kept him on guard.
“My name is Liu Wenyuan, the manager of Tingfeng Tower in Shayan City,”
the scholar in blue robes said with a cupped-fist salute and a smile. “Just now, outside Wanbao Pavilion, I overheard you two asking Elder Liu about the Earth Core Jade Marrow Milk. I apologize for the intrusion.”
Tingfeng Tower? David had never heard of this organization.
Seemingly sensing David’s confusion, Liu Wenyuan explained with a smile, “Tingfeng Tower is a small local organization in Shayan City, mainly engaged in infor

“Manager Liu knows about the Earth Core Jade Marrow Milk?” the Crimson Cloud Demon Lord couldn’t help but ask.
Liu Wenyuan smiled slightly, “I know a little. This isn’t the place to talk. If you two don’t mind, why don’t we move to Tingfeng Tower to discuss this in detail?”
“Don’t worry, it’s just business. Whether it succeeds or not depends entirely on your willingness.”
David and the Crimson Cloud Demon Lord exchanged a glance, both seeing interest in each other’s eyes. The clues about the Earth Core Jade Marrow Milk were too important to them; they couldn’t let go of even the slightest hope.
“Then we’ll have to trouble Manager Liu,” David nodded.
“Please follow me.” Liu Wenyuan’s smile widened as he turned and led the way. Tingfeng Tower
was located in the central area of Shayan City. It was a three-story wooden building, not particularly luxurious in appearance, but in an excellent location.
The interior was elegantly furnished; the first floor was a reception hall, the second floor had private rooms, and the third floor seemed to be office space.
Liu Wenyuan led the two directly to a private room by the window on the second floor. After instructing a maid to serve tea, he closed the door.
“Please sit, fellow Daoists.”
Liu Wenyuan gestured for them to sit, then sat down himself, getting straight to the point, “Earth Core Jade Marrow Milk is produced in the deepest part of the Earth Core Jade Vein in the Flame Domain’s Lava Demon Abyss. Only one drop is obtained every ten thousand years. It has the miraculous effects of strengthening the foundation, nourishing the vital energy, and locking the soul. Even in the Eleventh Heaven, this is a legendary treasure, and it is indeed difficult to obtain through ordinary channels.” “
Since Steward Liu knows this, you must have some clues?” David asked.
“There are indeed some clues,”
Liu Wenyuan nodded, but then changed the subject, “However, you two are surely aware of the value of such precious information…”
“Name your price,” David said directly.
Liu Wenyuan held up five fingers: “Five thousand top-grade immortal stones. Or treasures or materials of equivalent value.”
Five thousand top-grade immortal stones!
David frowned.
This price was almost several times his entire fortune.
Although he had some savings in the Ninth and Tenth Heavens, the value of those high-grade immortal stones and materials had greatly diminished in the higher realms.
Five thousand top-grade immortal stones were equivalent to five hundred thousand high-grade immortal stones.
David couldn’t afford that many top-grade immortal stones right now.
“Too high,”
David shook his head, “We’ve just arrived in the Eleventh Heaven and can’t afford that many top-grade immortal stones.”
Liu Wenyuan seemed to have anticipated this, and smiled, “If you don’t have enough immortal stones, you can pay in other ways. For example… do something for Tingfeng Tower.”
“What is it?”
David’s vigilance deepened.
There’s no such thing as a free lunch; if the other party offered this condition, the matter was probably not simple.
