After running down several thousand flights of stairs, the scene was different when Chen Xiaobei reached the secret spot right at the bottom. If the Palace of the Living Dead was similar to hell, this place was comparable to heaven! The ceiling, walls, and floor of the cave were filled with luminous minerals – like stars in the sky. The spiritual Qi was so concentrated that it turned into fog circling the cave. Looking up at the cave ceiling, it was like a starry night sky with clouds. It was absolutely breathtaking. Upon inhaling the pure spiritual Qi, Chen Xiaobei felt joy being poured into his body; all his stress replaced by relaxation. It was like he was jumping on a cloud like a deity.

"What is that?!"

It was true that this place was like heaven. However, Chen Xiaobei was drawn to something more interesting. There was a meter tall stone platform stood in the middle of this cave. On top of it placed a gorgeous green jade gourd.

"Is… Is this the legendary Dragon Breed Chalcedony?!"

The term Dragon Breed referred to the rarity of the gemstone. Normally, one could find Ice Breed, Glutinous Breed, Glass Breed, Confederate Rose Breed, and others. For Dragon Breed, it was considered the rarest and most expensive gemstone! When it came to gemstones, Chen Xiaobei was actually an experienced expert. He used to sell four hundred million worth of jade sculptures and had seen the blood jade coffin of Emperor Yan! However, all those jade stones that he came across before could never compare with this green jade gourd!

That type of green could be classified as emperor green. The item was crystal clear and flawless as well. Upon walking closer to it, he could feel the elements of earth and water exuding from it. Though the design of the gourd was ordinary, the Qi surrounding it had a grand vibe. It was as if this item belonged to the heavenly realm and ordinary people did not possess the right to lay their hands on it.

"This is not an ordinary jade sculpture!"

Immediately, Chen Xiaobei strode towards it. He had to check it out since his curiosity was completely triggered. Upon swinging his hands, all the fog liked spiritual Qi was gone. He was awestruck as he walked closer to the jade sculpture.

"Oh my god… So much spiritual Qi… And, all that spiritual Qi coming from this green jade gourd

After a more thorough inspection, Chen Xiaobei discovered that all the spiritual Qi came from a crack of the green jade gourd. The intriguing part was the spiritual Qi around it would be absorbed by it within seconds – turning the process into an endless cycle.

"If I'm not mistaken, this green jade gourd should be an item that is purposely used to store spiritual Qi! The crack is causing all the spiritual Qi to leak out from it! With that being said, I will be able to use this item to absorb all the spiritual Qi in this cave after I fix it! Right! That must be it! I have to figure out some way to fix it!"

Promptly, Chen Xiaobei took out his cell phone and took a picture of it. He then sent it to his brotherhood group to ask about the way to fix it. No matter what, he had to fix it. If not, he would have to stay here to use up all the spiritual Qi. In other words, he would have to stay there for a long time just to absorb all of it.

Knowing this place was the Xiangxi Phantom Lord's nest, many government departments would definitely come to this place to do their investigation. By that time, there was a high chance that Chen Xiaobei would be kicked out of this place. One should know that spiritual Qi was the thing that he dreamt of for the longest time possible.

After going through all the killing and encountering this golden opportunity, Chen Xiaobei would definitely be extremely frustrated if someone took this piece of treasure away from him.

Ding!

Soon, someone replied Chen Xiaobei's question.

Chang'e: This gourd doesn't look like an ordinary item. Mist probably, this is a Spiritual Item! It can be quite troublesome if you want to repair it.

Chen Xiaobei: Spiritual Item? What is the difference between a Spiritual Item and Magical Item?

Xiao Tianquan: A Magical Item is the lowest tier. Normally, they possess a certain amount of magical power. Anything above nine stars is a Spiritual Item!

Chen Xiaobei: Now I remember! The Green Jade Cauldron and Maliang Divine Pen are Spiritual Items!

Chang'e: That's right! A Spiritual Item is considered as high tier item. I'm afraid the Transmogrifying Flame that I gave you will not be any help. You have to use a higher-level Enigmatic Fire with high tier material to fix it!

Chen Xiaobei: I… I don't think it's possible! I do not have any extra time to spare!

Monkey King: You have to ask Lord Heavenly Smith if you are in a hurry. He is an expert in repairing and crafting! And, he has the Enigmatic Fire and the material needed to fix the item with him. Asking him to help you is definitely faster than repairing it yourself!

Chen Xiaobei: Alright. I'm going to ask him now!

Immediately, Chen Xiaobei closed the chat group and sent the picture to the Red Envelope Group.

Chen Xiaobei: @Lord Heavenly Smith, can you please take a look at this Spiritual Item? Do you think you can fix it? ?

Lord Heavenly Smith: God Chen, I can fix it but you need to pay me some merit points!

Chen Xiaobei: Alright. How much?

No matter how much it cost, Chen Xiaobei was more than willing to pay for the repairs. However, he did not expect to receive a frustrating reply from Lord Heavenly Smith.

Lord Heavenly Smith: Fees for repairing costs thirty-three thousand merit points! The cost of the material is one hundred thousand merit points!

Chen Xiaobei: What?! That's too expensive!

Earlier, Chen Xiaobei just paid four hundred and eighty-three thousand merit points to Yanwang. He only had one hundred thousand merit points left with him.

Chen Xiaobei: Can it be cheaper?

Jiang Ziya: Of course not! Lord Heavenly Smith is one of the high ranked deities in heaven. The Enigmatic Fire, Enigmatic Cauldron and materials that he uses are heavenly items! Hence, the price is fixed! There's no way that you can make him lower the price!

"Shit! I made a mistake! I have forgotten that Jiang Ziya is in the group as well! There's no way that I can make him lower down the price if he continues to mess with me!"

Lei Zhenzi: Hehe… Shishu Xiaobei, I thought that you are a tough guy? As the disciple of the Prime of Tongtian, you can't even come up with such a small amount of merit points?

Jiang Ziya: Shidi Xiaobei, you just won two hundred thousand merit point from me a few days ago. Did you spend all of it in one go? This is not possible, right?

Lei Zhenzi: Shishu Xiaobei! You have the merit points with you! Why are you trying to bargain with Lord Heavenly Smith? What a stingy man! The Prime of Tongtian is a very generous deity! Now, look at you! You are embarrassing him!

Looking at the messages that he received, Chen Xiaobei was left in frustration but there was nothing he could say about it. Initially, he possessed five hundred and eighty thousand merit points, it was more than enough to repair that green jade gourd. However, he was not lacking in merit points – turning him into a laughing stock in Lei Zhenzi's and Jiang Ziya's presence. Other than that, his luck and charm had dropped tremendously. Making a mistake like this had everything to do with his luck and charm.

"Normally, good things always come to good people! Why is it not happening to me?"

Ding!

Suddenly, a system message showed that someone new had just joined the Red Envelope Group. Immediately, the silent members of the group finally spoke up.
