"I know."
Nomological power surged out of Song Shi's palm. The golden spear gave off a resistance, as if it was unwilling to be controlled by him.
"There's still some of Old Dog Ye's power left inside. It will instinctively stop you from controlling it. You'll need some time to refine it."
When Shi Tianya saw the reaction of the golden spear, he knew that this person could not be Ye Wenzhong. Otherwise, the spear would not be like this.
Song Shi stuck it at the side and said, "How much is this compensation?"
"The value of these Numinous artifacts is ten times that of top-notch Dharma treasures therefore I'll have to deduct your remuneration. How about eight times the compensation?"
Lu Jiu discussed.
"Be more sincere. I also have treasures that are comparable to Numinous artifacts. Even if that piece of spirit soil can't compare to this golden spear, it's completely worth twenty to thirty percent of it. This doesn't count as anything else."
Song Shi said coldly, "My Blood River Dharma treasures are already quasi-Numinous artifacts. The Wisdom Tea Tree is also very valuable. With the addition of spirit soil, it's not too much to exchange for half a golden spear, right?"
Ghost Butcher widened his eyes. "You're asking for an exorbitant price. Don't tell me we have to compensate you with five Numinous artifacts?"
"This doesn't count as other small things. No matter what, you have to compensate five and a half more."
Song Shi shrugged, "You guys were quite generous just now, but now you can't bear to part with it?"
Lu Jiu waved his hand, "You guys don't have to defend anymore. My Heavenly Ghost Sect admits defeat."
He did not deduct anything. Since this person was so powerful, if he could win him over, his future gains would definitely be more worth than this compensation.
"Sect Master Lu is so generous."
Song Shi realized that Lu Jiu was quite generous. He had the temperament of an ambitious and ruthless person.
With such a person as the sect master, the Heavenly Ghost Sect would definitely continue to grow stronger.
"We don't have any extra Numinous artifacts. We can only compensate you with other things. How about we give it to you in batches? As compensation for the delay, I'll give you contribution points worth six Numinous artifacts."
Lu Jiu did not lower the compensation. Instead, he added half a Numinous artifact. However, he had to delay the delivery.
"In Instalments?"
Song Shi frowned. He knew that asking for so many things at once would hurt even the Heavenly Ghost Sect, so he did not reject it directly.
"That's right. We'll give you contribution points. As for spirit stones, medicinal pills, talismans, cultivation techniques, divine arts, and other resources, you can use contribution points to exchange for them according to your needs. This will be beneficial to both of us."
Lu Jiu said earnestly. Like this, you can continue to have all kinds of resources for a while and we won't be under too much pressure.
"That works too."
Song Shi nodded and asked, "If you have contribution points, you can exchange for anything?"
"Right, but some things will be restricted, but not against you. It's to ensure a certain amount of inventory."
Lu Jiu explained patiently.
This made Song Shi feel very comfortable.
Lu Jiu had never lied to him before, so he really had no reason to find fault with him. He nodded. "Alright, let's leave it at that."
"I did some calculations. Based on the average value of a low-grade spirit weapon, the sect will give you 1.8 million contribution points. In our Heavenly Ghost Sect, one contribution point is roughly worth a low-grade spirit stone. It's enough for you to cultivate for a thousand years."
Lu Jiu smiled and said, "As for your items, I'll return them to you if they haven't been consumed. The items that have been used will be compensated equally. How about that?"
"You've arranged it so well. What else do I have to say?"
Song Shi pulled out the golden spear. "Where do I live?"
Lu Jiu said to Old Man Nightmare, "Uncle Nightmare, arrange a high-grade cave abode for him."
Song Shi came to a cave abode at the edge of the ghost pit. The pure and cold Spiritual Qi turned into a foggy state, forming a sharp contrast with the cold wind outside.
It was obvious that this was also a special blessed land. It was very suitable for Yin cultivators. It was also not bad for people like him who were overly Yang.
"The density of the Spiritual Qi is three times that of the outside world. Even if the cultivation speed here is not increased by several times, it will always be faster than outside."
Song Shi muttered in his heart.
This was the difference between having a faction and not having one. It was not easy for rogue cultivators to occupy such a place to cultivate.
"Elder Blood Robes, are you satisfied?"
Old Man Nightmare asked politely. In the past, the Blood-Robed old ghost and he were both inner sect elders and belonged to the same level.
Now that he had advanced to Grand Supreme, his Ability was powerful, so he naturally looked at him in a different light.
"That's right. This is the best cultivation place I've ever seen."
Song Shi readily voiced his thoughts and continued, "I just need someone to order around. Where's my maid, Xiao Qin?"
He had been served by others since he was young. Usually, he needed someone to take care of some miscellaneous matters when he cultivated, so he naturally had to get a maid to come over.
He just didn't know how Bai Xiaoqin was doing while he was sealed.
Without him as her support, Bai Xiaoqin might be in trouble.
"Your maid is quite talented. An elder took a fancy to her and took her in as a disciple. I'll help you contact her. You can talk about it yourself."
Old Man Nightmare smiled.
"Just take me there. I want to see her."
Song Shi was prepared to understand Bai Xiaoqin's thoughts. If she was unwilling to be his maid, he would not force her.
"This is the restriction token of the cave dwelling. It's equivalent to a key. You can use it by refining it with your Psyche Power. Please keep it well, Blood-robed Elder."
Old Man Nightmare took out a white jade token and handed it to Song Shi.
Song Shi gave it a try. After injecting his Spiritual strength, he immediately obtained information about this cave abode. It was a little like the control hub of the security system.
There was no problem with trying to control the Array Formation with it. Song Shi followed Old Man Nightmare to the cave abode area outside.
"This area is a medium-grade cave abode. The Spiritual Qi density is twice that of the outside world. The low-grade cave abode in the outer sect is only half of that."
