“`

It seemed like a long consideration, but in reality, it was just a moment.

In Zhou Ping’s eyes, the projection screen before him quickly gave a response.

[Yes!]

Following this word, less than a meter in front of Zhou Ping, a faint spatial fluctuation transmitted with no warning.

This anomaly startled Zhou Ping, but before he could react otherwise, a bronze token quietly emerged, hovering in the air before him.

Zhou Ping curled his lips, muttering to himself that his reaction was a bit over the top. With the abilities of the great being behind the Ruins Market, if they had wanted, they could have easily crushed him without all the previous dawdling.

He tentatively reached out and slowly touched the bronze token.

A moment later, all the information about the bronze token appeared in his mind, and then he mumbled to himself,

“Ruins Market Guest Token, five additional chances to enter and exit the Zhu Tian Ruins Market. If I can continue to provide other valuable resources in the future, the number of chances can be increased.”

After sorting out the extra information in his mind, Zhou Ping nodded in agreement.

“Good, this Ruins Market Guest Token plus the Nine Heavens Cloud Essence!”

With that, he raised his right hand and passed over the Pure Yang Sword Pill.

In the Free Trade Area, Song Chi clenched his fist lightly, cheering inside, feeling like he had gained something without any effort.

The Nine Heavens Cloud Essence had almost no value within the Torch Human Civilization Territory. As for the Ruins Market Guest Token, since he had learned that behind the other party was a world of immortal cultivation, he had already decided to issue it.

Based on these two factors, it didn’t take much effort to exchange for the Pure Yang Sword Pill Strange Object.

After gathering the sword pill with the Power of Laws, Song Chi was preparing to examine the second Orange Glory Quality Strange Object he had acquired, but at that moment, Zhou Ping spoke up again.

“May I ask, can I offer the lives of those nine Pure Yang Sword Sect disciples as a reward for these 20 strands of Fourth Rank Spiritual Mechanism?”

To Song Chi, this request didn’t come as a surprise, given the relationship and attitude previously displayed by both parties. A life-and-death battle was inevitable, and for Zhou Ping to now leverage his assets to put a bounty on the Pure Yang Sword Sect disciples’ lives was entirely normal.

Understanding did not mean agreement, and Song Chi immediately refused without a second thought.

[Within the Ruins Market, we only discuss trades, not getting involved in any race, any creature, any form of conflict or grievances.]

As for this matter, Song Chi had already considered it in detail before it was mentioned, and this response was the result of careful deliberation.

By doing so, not only could it convey the Zhu Tian Ruins Market’s stance of fairness, justice, and detachment, but it could also reassure Zhou Ping.

Just think, if his bounty offer was accepted, he might be safe for the moment, but he would always feel some wariness towards the Ruins Market because of it.

He could issue a bounty, which meant others could too. What if someone later set a bounty on his life?

Moreover, from another perspective, if the Ruins Market could be persuaded to meddle in personal conflicts for some goods or resources, that would imply that it wasn’t without desires and wants; thus, if he offered something rare enough in the future, could it be possible for the Ruins Market to directly eliminate him?

Indeed, as Song Chi had guessed, when the projection screen bluntly declined, Zhou Ping showed an expression of helplessness and sighed, yet deep inside him, in a place even he hadn’t noticed, the last bit of tension completely relaxed, leaving him with no defenses against the Zhu Tian Ruins Market under his feet.

In the Free Trade Area, compared to the matter of the bounty, Song Chi’s attention was more focused on the word “Spiritual Mechanism” mentioned earlier.

“They call the Floating Land Origin ‘Spiritual Mechanism’ in their world, how interesting.”

Muttering to himself, he began to actively inquire of Zhou Ping with a thought.

The projection screen changed, and a new line of text appeared on it.

[Do you still have the Titanium Crystals from the black bag earlier?]

He didn’t conceal anything, directly mentioning the words “Titanium Crystal”.

It wasn’t that he didn’t care, but right beside him in the purchasing shop, samples of Titanium Crystal were displayed, and Zhou Ping had visited that shop before. Any attempt to conceal would seem like trying to cover up what was obvious.

Upon hearing this, Zhou Ping became interested.

He first shook his head, then nodded emphatically.

“I don’t have any on me at the moment, but there are some in the world behind me.”

Saying this, he blinked, a spark of inspiration flashed in his heart, then whispered:

“May I ask, if I bring this Titanium Crystal here in the future, can it increase the number of times I can use the Ruins Market Guest Token?”

Song Chi paused for a moment before giving an affirmative response.

“If the quantity is sufficient, yes!”

His answer was ambiguous, as the specifics for later were still for him to decide!

While the two conversed, noise erupted from the outer stall area, and Song Chi sent a tendril of his consciousness to probe. Raising his eyebrows, a look of curiosity and anticipation appeared in his eyes.

At the entrance to the Free Trade Area, near the Ruins Market, a few Pure Yang Sword Sect disciples had also quietly set up their stalls.

Displayed on their stalls were not only various metal ores but also a type of stone they called “Spirit Stone”, which contained gentle energy, and various weapons known as “Magic Artifacts”, in addition to some assorted small containers.
