"Four levels? Oh no, I misspoke. Five levels, five levels!"
Only after Cui Dong City's quick correction did Fang Qingyuan sit back down in his chair.
The Illusion Sword Alliance's *Mirage Dragon Illusion Sword Scripture* had eight levels in total. The first five were enough to cultivate to the Late-stage Golden Core.
Originally, Cui Dong City had only intended to offer the first four levels of the Cultivation Technique, enough to reach the Mid-stage Golden Core. But seeing Fang Qingyuan's unwillingness to even negotiate, he immediately raised his offer to five levels.
Anything beyond the fifth level was not something Cui Dong City, the Crown Prince of the Illusion Sword Alliance, could authorize on his own. He would need approval from one of the Nascent Soul Ancestors above White Mountain.
