Chapter 158: Transa

  "Gu He, what brings you here, kid?"

  As Hai Bo Dong walked in, he went straight to sit beside Gu He with a calm expression on his face.

  "You leave for now," Hai Bo Dong instructed the steward who was nearby.

  "Yes, Elder Hai." The steward immediately respectfully left the VIP room upon hearing this.

  Gu He looked at Hai Bo Dong and, sensing the aura emanating from him, calmly said, "gratutions, Elder Hai, aining your strength aurning to the peak."

  This time, Gu He could clearly sense a differen Hai Bo Dong. It seemed like the fident Ice Emperor from years ago had returned.

  Therefu He specuted that Hai Bo Dong had taken the Revival Purple Spirit Pill, regained his strength, and found his lost fidence.

  After all, every strong individual has their own demeanour.

  "Yaze is always so sharp, kid."

  Seeing Gu He through with just one look, Hai Bo Dong couldn't help but be slightly stunned. A hint of helplessness appeared on his aged face.

  Then, Hai Bo Dong tinued, "I've instructed Tengshan to hahe matter you entrusted to me. It's uhat we'll receive any good news in the short term."

  Hai Bo Dong assumed that Gu He's visit this time was reted to the previous issue of the list, so he expined promptly.

  The materials required for the Zong Breakthrough Pill are extremely rare. Even within the small Jia Ma Empire, it's challenging to gather them. Even the wealthy Miteer family couldn't aplish it in a short time.

  Gu He naturally uood this reasoning, but he wasn't in a hurry.

  The Zong Breakthrough Pill repared for Yunyun. sidering Yunyun's current strength, reag the level of a ar Dou Emperor would still take some time.

  Gu He came this time to collect sixth-grade spiritual herbs, preparing to establish a medial garden in the valley behind the mountain for himself.

  Thinking of this, Gu He smiled faintly and spoke slowly, "Elder Hai, you've misuood. I'm here this time for aransa with you."

  "Aransa?"

  Upon hearing this, Hai Bo Dong was somewhat surprised, looking at Gu He suspiciously, and said, "What scheme are you plotting again?"

  Ever sintering Gu He iagreat Desert, Hai Bo Do like he had been led by the nose of him.

  It seemed that Gu He knew everything about him, making Hai Bo Dong somewhat wary of him.

  Therefore, when Gu He proposed aransa, Hai Bo Dong instinctively resisted.

  Dealing with this guy always meaing the short end of the stick, being calcuted to the bone.

  Looking at Hai Bo Dong's guarded appearance, Gu He couldn't help but want to pin.

  Am I really that much of a bad guy?

  Without me, this old guy would still be hiding in that Tagreat Desert like a turtle.

  Gu He thought inwardly, but his expression remained unged.

  He looked at Hai Bo Dong, a hint of a smile pying on his lips. No matter how guarded you are, you won't be able to resist this trade.

  With various thoughts in his mind, Gu He smiled mysteriously and said, "Elder Hai, have you ever heard of the Eternal Life Bead?"

  "The Eternal Life Bead?"

  Upon hearing this, Hai Bo Dong's heart shook. Although he hadn't heard of what Gu He was talking about, any treasure with the word "eternal life" sounded extraordinary.

  After careful sideration, Hai Bo Dong firmed that he had never heard of a treasure called the "Eternal Life Bead." He looked at Gu He with a face full of surprise and suspi, asking, "What kind of treasure is this Eternal Life Bead? Does it grant immortality when ed?"

  The Eternal Life Bead mentioned by Gu He naturally referred to the green sphere densed by Cai Er.

  That green sphere tained aremely rich life force. Even someone like him, a Dou Aor powerhouse, could extend their lifespan by a hundred years after ption.

  Gu He estimated that for a Dou Vee-level individual, ing the Eternal Life Bead could increase their lifespan by at least two hundred years.

  Sihe green sphere had no name, Gu He, sidering its life-extending properties, the Eternal Life Bead.

  At this moment, hearing Hai Bodong's question, Gu He immediately expined, "The Eternal Life Bead is a sixth-grade spiritual herb. It takes a thousand years to dense a drop of life essence, taining aremely rich life force. ing it at the Dou Aor level instantly increase one's lifespan by two hundred years, and even at the Dou Vee level, it still add a hundred years to one's lifespan."

  "Two hundred years of lifespan?"

  Upon hearing Gu He's words, Hai Bodong could no longer maintain his posure. A look of horror appeared on his elderly face, and his clouded eyes widened, evidently finding Gu He's words somewhat unbelievable.

  Hai Bodong couldn't help but breathe rapidly, thinking that if he could obtain this Eternal Life Bead, he could potentially extend his lifespan by two hundred years.

  Two hundred years of lifespan—surely, he would be able to break through to the Dou Vee realm, or even the legendary Dou Aor realm.

  "Is there truly such a treasure in the world?"

  However, after the initial shock, Hai Bodong, looking at the smile on Gu He's face, couldn't help but question it again.

  After all, he had never heard of such a treasure as the Eternal Life Bead.

  Seeing Hai Bodong's slightly doubtful expression, Gu He, not perturbed in the slightest, nodded and said, "Certainly. Because I have two Eternal Life Beads in my possession, along with that sixth-grade spiritual herb."

  "You have the Eternal Life Bead?"

  Upon hearing Gu He's words, Haji Bodong's face again revealed a look of shock. Thehought of something, squinted his eyes, and calmly said, "What is your purpose in revealing information about this Eternal Life Bead to me?"

  Although Hai Bodong coveted the Eternal Life Bead as described

  by Gu He, he hadn't lost his reasoirely. After all, the authenticity of the Eternal Life Bead, as described by Gu He, couldn't be firmed, and he couldn't afford to be in chaos for something that might be a mere fabrication.

  "Elder Hai has keen insight."

  Seeing that Hai Bodong quickly regained his pu He couldn't help but sigh in his heart that old foxes were indeed experienced. With a smile on his face, Gu He tinued, "Elder Hai, I want to make a trade with you for the Eternal Life Bead. Are you ied?"

  "Trading for the Eternal Life Bead!"

  As expected, just as Gu He anticipated, even though Hai Bodong tried hard to maintain posure, the subtle fluctuations in his aura exposed his current state of mind, which wasn't as calm as it seemed on the surface.

  After a moment of silehe aura around Hai Bodong finally calmed down. He locked eyes with Gu He and said solemnly, "Tell me, how should we proceed with the trade?"

  Hearing this, Gu He revealed a smile and looked at the serious Hai Bodong, saying, "It's simple—twenty pnts of sixth-grade spiritual herbs, and I give you oernal Life Bead!"
