《The Heavens Shall Fall》Chapter 22: Business

The white in his eyes completely turned black, his aura turned demonic as black energy emanated from him. His core hummed as it continuously refined the demonic energy. He trembled nonstop and sweats poured in his forehead. Every portion of his core was filled with refined demonic energy. He also felt that his control for both demonic and natural energy grew better. Five hours passed by, he was drenched in sweat as the demonic energy swirled inside his core, and natural energy swirled outside of his body. He opened his eyes and the black part of his eyes slowly evaporated revealing bright luster. The swirling energy stopped and busted in every direction causing his bed and chair to be thrown away. "This is amazing. I think five more of those things could increase my level! I should call this demonic nature's dew!" With the speed of his growth, Ming Li felt eager to refine another nature's dew. However, when he thought about the cost of that single nature's dew, his heart sank and felt depressed. The demon's grace was expensive, and he had to use 19 more plants which are equally rare and might be expensive too. His thirst for growth was boundless but his soul ore's were limited. When everything was over, he popped two pills to ease his hunger and fatigue for lack of sleep. He decided not to sleep and eat from now on and just rely on pills. He went out and noticed that a single sun was up and it was already early in the morning. He directly went to his plot of land and took care of the plants. Days went by, he did nothing but took care of his plants and study more about plant energy. When the day he needed to send his crops to the sect came, he gathered all his plants which bloomed perfectly because of his deep understanding of them. He knew exactly what time and how much nature's dew he should put in the plant. After which he sent his share and kept the remaining plants for himself. He was given another set of seeds to grown and set of nature's dew to help it's growth. He did not bother to look at them and kept it in his cube. Actually in these seven days, what he was eagerly looking forward for was the weekly trade. When the weekly trade opened, he sped trough the crowd entering the center of the market where he immediately looked for a demon's grace like an addicted person. When he saw all the other plants he need for creation of demonic nature's dew, his eyes bulged with pure shock "WHAT!? Those plants are also this expensive! The cheapest is 1 thousand soul ore. If I combine the 20 other herbs everything it would be almost 30 thousand plus the 20 thousand cost of demon's grace! That would be 50 thousand per demonic natures's dew. What the hell! I'll be broke fast." He glanced at the market and saw some of the various plants he have which he conned from the village chief. Back then he requested hundreds of random plants from the village while curing the villagers, but he never thought that those plants would be also expensive "So that's why the Village has only 1 million soul ores left! They used all their resources to cure thousand of villagers." Ming Li now felt guilty for adding various herbs every time he felt like it on the formula for the cure of the poison. After a while, he sighed and rubbed his cube and thought "I still have hundred of herb left and 1 million soul ores. I think I can reach the eight level beginners realm with this, but after that I'll be poor as a rat. Ming Li hid and put on a black robe with hood then covered half of his face as he waited for the non sect members to be allowed to enter the market. He doesn't want to be exposed that he was buying large quantity of demons grace. Disciples rarely buys demons grace since it is expensive, so he can wait a bit and buy it along with outsiders. He immediately bought seven demons's grace and various plants he needed. Everything cost him 200 thousand soul ores. His heart bled. This is the first time he spent 200 hundred thousand in a single day. His eyes felt teary but he can't do anything about it. Luckily he didn't gain much attention, since he kept changing the color of his robe every time he purchased a demon's grace. The people might recognize his aura but it isn't important since there are hundreds of people spending more than him. He went in his room and decided to look for a cheaper method to create the demonic nature's dew. The people who brought him in the sect didn't visit him for the whole span of time he has sent been in the sect. He found out that they were sent to the main sect for training. Since this branch sect is highly valued by the main sect, disciples in the branch sect are given opportunity to learn in the main sect. Also if they have enough potential they could be invited to enter the main sect. Ming Li racked his brains for hours but he failed to think of a cheaper alternative for his formula. He decided to stick with it for the meantime and just think of a way to earn soul ores. "Soul ores.. Soul ores.. Soul ores.. Soul ores.. .." He kept murmuring as he thinks of a way to earn soul ores. If anyone could see him, he would be instantly labeled as insane. "I get it! I should just create an extremely good nature's dew from useless plants! Since I am a genius, I think I can get it done. For now I will just create some demonic nature's dew and study more about nature's dew." With that he created five sets of demonic nature's dew and consumed them for several days. He could not consume more than one demonic dew in a single day, since it would take too much time just to absorb one. Also his body could not withstand the strain of continuously absorbing demonic energy at a rapid pace. While consuming demonic energy he never forgot to take care of his plot. His plant's grew at a good pace, he took good care of it while studying each and every plant as it grows. His level also increased to seventh level when he consumed his sixth demonic nature's dew. He consumed one natures dew than he expected. Also he noticed that he would need a lot more nature's dew to reach the next levels which made him feel cheated by the world. The method he is using is almost impossible for normal people, since he relies on wealth and art to increase his level rapidly. Even some sects would be amazed on how he increased his level in only a single week. Days passed and he became indulged in experimenting cheap plants to create a high quality nature's dew. His supply for plants slowly depleted as he did his experiment. He consumed around 300 thousand soul ores in the process. He bought thousand of random plants in his experiment trying to mix them and arrive with the cheapest and best result. His eyes went bloodshot as he combined various plants. He even went as far as combine seventy plants in one nature's dew. He did not give up and never slept for a month. The only time he would go out was to take care of his plants and he would immediately come back to his room to continue his experiment. He was like a mad scientist trying to create gold from stones. There are times that he would laugh wildly whenever he creates something unexpected, which startles the people roaming around the hallway of his room. After a month, his aura was close to a dead person when he went out with his room, but his eyes shone brightly with hope. He held a small bottle on his hands with a golden nature's dew inside. "Hahahaha! I have created a miracle!" While laughing and murmuring to himself, he went to the weekly trade. The disciples avoided him since he seem insane and weird scent of plants emanated from him. This was caused by hundreds of failures in the experiment, He even accidentally created some sort of poison nature's dew from his failures. He sat down at a corner and spread out a cloth where he placed three of his newly created nature's dew. Then he set up a banner with price and name "divine nature's dew! Only 5 Thousand soul ores!" Below another banner was spread out stating "Divine nature's dew which has a concentration 5 times that of a normal nature's dew only worth 5 thousand soul ores. It can be absorbed 5 times faster than normal nature's dew and you can consume it unlimited times in a single day!" The three small bottle of nature's dew emitted dazzling golden luster which attracted a lot of people. Ming Li purposely included some plants which will created this very effect for marketing purposes. Around ten people gathered around Ming Li who was curious about his product. One man suddenly said "Sir what if it does not do what you promised?" "Sir if it does not do what I said then you can have it for free." Ming Li said with a smile. The man carefully looked at the nature's dew and thought deeply for a while, then he waved his hand throwing a very small non contracted cube with 5 thousand soul ores inside. Ming Li checked it with his consciousness and verified that there are really 5 thousand soul ores inside. He then waved his hands causing the divine nature's dew to float in front of the man. These very small non contracted cubes have a very small space inside of it, which does not even exceed half a square meter of available space. It is basically useless and is primarily used to store large quantity of soul ores. The man smiled and did not hesitate to drink the nature's dew then he sat crossed legged trying to absorb it. After only twenty breaths of time, he stood up and made his aura surge which caused the onlookers to be filled with shock. After the man released his aura he exclaimed "It is really 5 times more concentrated and faster to absorb. This is amazing!" "See, I told you its real" Ming Li said with a light smile. Everyone who saw the scene was filled with high expectation towards the nature's dew from Ming Li. So another disciple went near him and threw a cube "I'll take one." Again, Ming Li casually waved his hand causing the nature's dew to float infront of the man. The man instantly consumed the nature's dew and he also sat crossed legged then closed his eyes, but an obvious trace of shock can be seen on his face while absorbing it. After twenty breaths he said "It is real! I can't believe this." With the second one trying out his nature's dew and declaring that it is real, many people rushed in trying to get one for themselves. Many people who were too late to react tried to push themselves in the crowd. Some of this people are fellow disciples who wished to study his natures dew. However Ming Li doesn't mind, since he is confident that no one could discover the formula for his nature's dew. He added around a hundred useless plants to create it and only thirty of those are really necessary to create the nature's dew. Also the process for making it is quite complex, which even made Ming Li spend a whole month without sleep and rest only trying to create it. He sold all thirty of his nature's dew which made him 150 thousand soul ores. His eyes was filed with joy since the cost of making one divine nature's dew is only 2.5 thousand soul ore. In just one day he gained a profit of around 75 thousand soul ores. Also he could make around 10 divine natures dew in a single day which will give him a steady income. On one alley, Ming Li laughed maniacally and threw two cube at two disciples then said "Those cube has both 10 thousand soul ores. Thanks to your good performance I had everything sold properly" The two men were the ones who first bought his pills. They laughed and said "Thank you too. Your nature's dew is really amazing even without our acting." "No. No. Even great products requires good promotion to sell." Ming Li said then laughed along with the two men.
