BXBX NOVEL Chapter 305
“The bone-grave swamp. That is an in-demand location we are talking about. The information about the water-mist village is somewhat affordable, but a Bone-grave swamp is a place where 50% of the people don’t even return from. The information about it is going to cost you way more.”
Li Meng took out a white sword from his ring and threw it at the manager. The manager grabbed it instantly and the moment he verified it, his eyes were bulging out.
“Emperor sword.”
“A beginner grade emperor sword made out of white dew rock and millennium adamantine. This should be enough to buy all the information right.” The manager looked at Li Meng with serious eyes. He initially thought Li Meng to be a newbie, but this sword proved otherwise. It was seized from someone, and stealing an emperor weapon was no small task. Li Meng appeared quite mysterious.
“It would do. I will be taking it to my superiors.”
“I didn’t say I am exchanging it. I will be putting them on the auction. You will deduct your cut along with the price of the information from the final selling price. The rest will be mine.” The manager’s expression hanged. He was making quite a bit of profit in the deal, but Li Meng’s words changed the scenario.
“And you should be honest with your dealings, cause I know the exact price for the information I desire.” Li Meng sounded like a seasoned veteran. The manager sat back on his chair.
.....
“What are the contents of the requested information except for the herbs and natural resources?”
“I would like to know about the major powers within the two regions. Although the Bone-grave swamps are too dangerous to operate in, there should be some operating in its outskirts. I would also like to know about the specific topograp[hy and environmental conditions, the best locations to test out my luck and the top trading houses.”
“Our organisation should be enough to satisfy your trading demands. As per the other information, you will be able to avail of them here. The only problem is the price. Although the second and third demand is quite easy to fulfil, the first two aren’t.”
“Especially the second one. If we are going to report the exact details of the Bone-grave swamp, you will have to become one of the premium members of our association. That will be costing you some extra money.”
“How about this? I will be given a VIP title, which should within the first two tiers, along with a 20% discount on every future purchase of mine from your association, and you can have the sword. You will be giving me all the information I required in addition to that too.” The manager consulted with the association rule book and some of his superiors through talismans.
“We agree with the offer. But we would also like you to make this guild your first choice while trying to sell your commodity.”
“Done deal.” Li Meng got up. ” I would be expecting all the commodities by the dawn of tomorrow along with all my herbs. I hope you will provide me with the information suited to my rank.”
“We will.” The manager greeted Li Meng and went into the higher floors to submit the request to his superiors.
............................
“Why are you asking about the herbs within the region.”
“I am thinking of continuing my research in the bombs and formation fields. I might even start a separate set of experiments for weapon crafting. Although my knowledge is fairly shallow, the variety has given me some great ideas. If I succeed in making the idea come to life, We would in the way to creating the greatest tier 4 and 5 weapons in the world.”
“Qi Kings will be killing each other just to buy my creations.”
“What are you trying to make?”
“I am thinking of creating a self energized set of weapons which would be able to give a substantial output of energy on its own without the interference from the user. It would also be able to absorb energy on its own and work in reverse, like a battery for the user to charge from.”
“That is the theory of advance grade weapon development which you would be coming across in future.”
“What you are referring to is made up of formations. I am talking about a reactor-based device that would have a separate unit instead of a formation to carry out the required processes. In theory, I would just be using my knowledge of a level 34 weapon refiner to create something with applicability range of level 7 or 8.”
“It would remain that the power wouldn’t be able to match with weapons of those grades, but who requires them at Qi King levels. If I am successful we might be able to temporarily diminish our demands for monetary funds to run the forces under me.”
“That is a good idea. Let’s see If there a herb we could find.” The Keeper enquired.
“it would take a lot of time to come up with the required combination. All the other avatars are busy with their tasks, and hence this mission provides me with the perfect opportunity for my research. I would be able to take my research to a new level in this half-year. Who knows, my invention might be able to push me higher in the rank of level 4 refiners.” Long Tao said with a gleeful tone.
“What about Su Menqi?” The Keeper asked.
“She is about to complete her isolation. I will be discussing the matter of breakthrough with her in a short time.” Long Tao reported the current situation to the Keeper.
“I have come up with a theory which would be the perfect path for her. Ask her to concentrate on water and ice laws first. It would be best if she could connect with both. If she manages to do so, her third choice would be to go for storm laws. Although it a hybrid wind type law, its characteristics match with ice and water a lot. She might be able to establish it.” The Keeper said.
“I will report this to her. The laws she connects to at the end is her choice.” Long Tao said.
“I know that.” The Keeper replied.

Water-mist village-
Li Meng decided to stay in a famous inn within the village. To be running an establishment in the middle of the battlefield like this meant that the owners had substantial power backing them up. Such an establishment was legitimate most of the times. Li Meng approached the counter and threw a small pouch at the receptionist.
“I will be staying here for about 6-months. The first set of payment is within here. Come up to me once you need more.” The receptionist looked into the pouch and was shocked by its content. He then stood up and directed Li Meng to follow him up.
Soon enough they were in a cosy yet lavish room. ” The meals are included in the boarding charges and would be sent to your room every 6 hours.”
“That’s fine.” Li Meng kept his bag in the cupboard and sat on the floor to begin his meditation. The journey wasn’t tiring for someone like him, but he tried to rest his mind for what is to come. He needed to start preparing for the establishment of a force here. It requires quite a large amount of manpower and workforce.
“I guess I need to pick some wealthy targets. Money and resources are the first requirements.” The list was to be received tomorrow.
The night dawned upon the sky and LI Meng drifted off in his training.
..................................
The next day-
“is it all in there?”
“Every bit of information you requested for along with all the resources we could gather from our treasury. We have included the possible spots and sources which could provide you with the rest of the resources.” The manager then took out a small ring and gave it to Li Meng. ” This is our VIP insignia ring given to top-grade customers.”
“Your requests have been accepted by the organisations and we will work according to the prior arrangement requested by you. We hope to do more business with you in the future.”
“you will be doing a lot of it with me.” Li Meng looked around the guildhall and thought that this would be the perfect target to satisfy all his basic needs. But he decided to give up on that thought. The guild was guaranteed to have at least a few advanced levels emperors sitting right inside of it.
He didn’t even have any idea about who the backer of this guild was. They had to have a Qi Monarch backing them up to be so influential in the water-mist village.
LI meng went back to his room and began to look through the information.
