Chapter 1055: Success

Once theyd fled the level the Spire was on, Sage turned to Guan Zhenyan.

So, where to, next? Was that everything? Wasnt there something you needed from the actual Chain Ocean Palace headquarters? We just left the Sea King so maybe now is the perfect time to strike when hes away.

The man was sitting upon a divan within a palatial cabin, smoking from his long pipe and holding the newly acquired item in his hand. It was a blackened sphere, similar in size to a walnut, yet hard as rock. Sages Blacksilver Pawn had slipped out of the Spire when the barrier was broken for just that quick moment, sneaking aboard one of the giant tendrils and getting carried out without anyone noticing. Now, with the item theyd worked so hard for in Zhenyans hands they were only one piece away from completing the agreement.

There is indeed one final piece in the coffers of Chain Ocean Palace. We can head there now, but Im not called the Dream Dealer for no reason. I got word that another one has just come onto the market.

Oh, let me guess. This new source is also extremely expensive. Do they also have a grudge against you?

The expense goes without saying. I wouldnt have requested your assistance if the items I required were not difficult to acquire. As for a grudge: no more than any other customer.

So they hate you. Ill keep that in mind. So, what level are we heading to? Is there a good place to stop along the way to trade for Spirit Stones? Surely you know someone who can take a large amount of lower level resources with no questions asked, right?

Welcome to the Imperious Emporium. How may we be of service to you?

Sage was still wearing the dark armor from before and Guan Zhenyan was still aboard the ship along with Xiang Fei Long. Sage, in his imposing black armor with red highlights, was accompanied by only a pair of deckhands, the two women wearing simple sailing outfits fit for the age of sail, but with very pirate-like bandanas and cutlasses. They were both merely creations of the Artifact Spirit which meant they couldnt stray too far from the ship, but even the research teams hadnt been able to confirm all the details as they fell into the bounds of keeping the Artifact Spirit happy to increase performance.

Weve been told you can purchase large amounts of resources here. Heres a manifest.

Sage held out a Jade Slip and the man quickly checked it, nodding his head, Very well. Let us head inside. The Guru will wish to speak with you.

Guru? Really?

He waved his hand to the two workers beside him and they ran back up the ramp. The two of them along with a dozen others started walking up and down the ramp again. Moving in teams of two to carry Storage Chests out from the ships hold and then setting them down at the bottom of the ramp before heading back up for another. The large chests started to stack up at the end of the ships ramp, even as Sage followed the mustached man into the large white tent behind him.

Inside, the thick walls of the tent were very different from the outside as they were covered with various decorations. Silk banners, intricate tapestries, and thick cushions filled the place. Between the piles of plush cushions were larger pillows that were occupied by valuable items, a fact which he identified after just a few moments with a whole research team to assist him. The man led him to a cordoned off area of the tent, where a curtain slowly pulled back and a chubby brown skinned man walked out. Sage was surprised as the Tianxia Empire was predominately east asian in appearance. Hed seen the whole range of peoples down in the Depths, but it was something else to see here in the Tianxia Capital.

I am the Guru. Who might you be?
