"Brother, why don't you watch it?"
"If you have a chance in the future, do business first."
After leaving the floating city, Zhong Yan took Gu Dongdong up to the sky above the city road and flew away.
Unlike a small place like the Yan Kingdom, this ancient city is full of powerful people, Yuanying is ordinary, and the gods are also seen. At any time, you may encounter an ancestor from the younger generation.
An ancient family like the Jiang family, which had a great emperor, might have the means and treasures to spy on the 'all things creation' he displayed.
After walking around dozens of streets, he didn't find anyone following him. Zhong Yan couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, landed on the ground, and walked towards a comprehensive commercial store called "Wuhua Tianbao". Looking at the sign, it belonged to Tiandao Sect.
“Welcome distinguished guests to visit Wuhua Tianbao!”
There was an endless stream of monks coming in and out, and even the greeters at the door were all foundation-building monks.
The main hall on the first floor is extremely spacious. At a glance, hundreds of people are wandering around and it seems empty.
Like other stores, there is a large crystal funnel next to the counter at the entrance, which contains hundreds of millions of 'rosary beads'. The particles are larger than the 'soybean beads' in Weinan, but far inferior to those given by the guardian of the Eternal Life Palace. Zhongzhou prayer beads.
As for the exchange ratio here, one low-grade spiritual stone can only be exchanged for seventy pieces.
Obviously, seventy prayer beads bring better cultivation effects than one spiritual stone. Ordinary monks are willing to exchange spiritual stones for prayer beads. At this moment, more than thirty people are queuing up to buy.
Qi Condensing Pill, Qi Gathering Pill, Guiyuan Pill, Zhuyan Pill, Heyuan Pill...all are sold on the first floor.
Naturally, there is also the 'Rong Ling Dan' used to form pills, but the price is more expensive than that of Yan State!
A three-stripe pattern costs 3.8 million, and it is sold in limited quantities. Each person can only buy one, and their identity must be registered. In other words, a proof of purchase is required before the disciples of the sect can purchase it normally.
Not only Taikoo City, Zhong Yan came all the way, but also other immortal cities, obviously to control the number of Jindan people.
Especially casual cultivators can only buy them on the black market at higher prices.
The reason why the Shenxiao Sect's products are cheap is that they can be regarded as benefits to the subordinate vassal forces, but they are mainly based on the 'Wudao Pattern, One Pattern, and Two Dao Patterns', and the effect is greatly reduced.
After roughly shopping around, the two of them went straight to the fourth floor according to the signs. This floor sold everything related to formations, including various formation practice materials, formation insights, formation spiritual materials, etc.
Zhong Yan finally saw a 'white jade platform' with array patterns engraved on it in the crystal container. It was labeled 'Seventh Level, Small Five Elements Thick Earth Vajra Defense Array', but the price was not shown.
After some inquiry, a small set costs 78 million. The horizontal connection can extend to cover a distance of ten miles and is suitable for city defense formations.
As for the general city defense formation, considering the small city, it only protects four gates, at least four sets are required to start, and the value is upwards of 300 million.
Ridiculously expensive!
Such an expensive price was far beyond Zhong Yan's expectations. Compared with the 'Sixth Level Defense Array' he had seen before, it was nothing like clouds and mud.
According to his original plan, even if he only protects Qitianfeng on Changsheng Island, he can't even afford a small set at the moment.
However, if you think about it carefully, you can also understand that when the monks of the Transformation God rarely move outside, the seventh-level defensive array is equivalent to the strongest defense, and no matter how many people there are, it can't break it.
"Is there any cheaper one?"
"Seventh level?"
Asking a rhetorical question, the shopping guide explained in detail: "The Small Five Elements Defense Array is the most commonly used. This 'Thick Earth King Kong' array has strong defensive power and high stability. The consumption of maintaining operation is relatively small. Our store also There are two other types, each small set costs about 10 million, but the effect is much worse than this formation..."
After a pause, the shopping guide continued: "In addition, the other two defensive arrays are not in stock and need to be ordered. They will be shipped in five years. Currently, only this thick earth array has a complete set of ready-made semi-finished products. There are eight small sets in total, which can be assembled directly. For cities with a population of less than three million.”
Zhong Yan understood. When he first consulted, the other party was very surprised, thinking that few people would buy the seventh-level defensive formation.
The big forces have high-level array masters who can build their own formations. It is difficult for ordinary forces to have the financial resources. They do not accept prayer beads and can only purchase spiritual stones.
Sure enough, after leaving 'Wuhua Tianbao', Zhong Yan and his wife visited more than a dozen shops. Only one of them had ready-made semi-finished arrays, which had been unsalable for more than three hundred years. No one cared about them. Two of them had samples and needed to be ordered. The rest There aren't even any display samples.
It can be seen that the seventh level defensive array is scarce, no wonder it is so expensive.
As night falls, the lanterns come on.
Zhong Yan and Gu Dongdong walked into a restaurant and ordered some food and drinks.
Gu Dongdong sent a message and whispered: "Brother, it seems that there is no way to buy the seventh-level defense array."
Zhong Yan held the wine glass and remained silent.
He has been calculating for the past half day. Based on the current 'Array Experience Progress' displayed on the system panel, even if he takes He Jinyan with him every day, it will take him 180 years to be promoted to a seventh-level array mage.
The next trip would last for a long time. Without adequate defense at home, he couldn't rest assured. At least he had to build an absolutely safe shelter at the center of Qitian Peak on Changsheng Island.
"Miaomiao is not bound, Jinyan's formation level is too low..."
"It seems that we need to find a high-level female formation master to speed up the accumulation of formation experience."
Thinking of this, the corner of Zhong Yan's mouth twitched slightly. The only female ancestors of major powers could have such a person. How could he be his opponent?
Are you selling your strength by relying on your skin? It also needs to be appreciated by others.
Moreover, the problem cannot be solved in a short time.
Zhong Yan said in a message: "If we sell the captured resources, we can collect a few million, and then sell the 'Han Ming Grass', and we should be able to buy two sets, enough to decorate Qitian Peak."
Gu Dongdong was startled: "Husband, we also sell Han Ming Cao, don't we keep it for cultivating our spiritual consciousness? Such treasures are hard to come by, and you may not be able to buy them even if you have money in the future."
Zhong Yan's body ached and he hesitated. The 'Nine Nether Cold Ming Grass' in the storage bag was more than three feet tall. It had thick roots and dense branches and leaves. It was more than ten thousand years old. It was a rare medicine that could not be found in the world.
Now that he has not cultivated enough to fully utilize the value of herbs, he is reluctant to use them.
At the beginning, Li Qiming was sure that no one present could protect him, and he was ready to break his promise and regret it later. Unexpectedly, Zhang Ran had already set up a trap and took advantage of himself and took it from Xiao Yuqin.
Zhong Yan estimated that Zhang Ran was secretly thinking about this precious medicine, but he just concluded that he would not waste it in the short term and had not made any plans yet. Moreover, one or a second plant could appear in the Yunmeng Secret Realm, allowing him to suppress it. Living.
Gu Dongdong: "Who will sell it to? The price will definitely be higher if it is auctioned."
Zhong Yan shook his head. If the Jiang family saw it, it would be impossible to put it up for auction, but they could use this to get a suitable price.
"Let's go shopping for a few more days and see."
He came up with the idea of starting a temporary side job. Killing dozens of golden elixirs should be able to collect enough money, but in a place like the center of the Eastern Region, this would be too risky.
At this time, there was a discussion in the restaurant about the fighting in the floating city.
Dugu Po challenged Jiang Haochen, fighting fiercely for more than half an hour, and finally lost a single move.
Han Qinglin and Chen Changqing failed in the challenge and failed to marry Fairy Linglong, but they survived the eighty-year reunion in the hands of Jiang Haochen and were considered passed by the Jiang family.
The former refused the other woman's marriage and got another chance to climb the 'Lian Shen Mountain' and passed the 721st level.
The latter chose to marry into the Jiang family, and after one more fight, the seventh-level golden elixir defeated the eighth-level golden elixir Tianlinggen 'Jiang Shiyan', and the two parties settled down to get married.
After leaving the restaurant, Zhong Yan and the two walked on the street. Everyone was talking about the fight during the day. Tomorrow there will be two Zhongzhou monks to challenge, and there is also a demon genius from the southern region, who is highly anticipated.
At night, Haishi.
Zhong Yan and the two found an ordinary inn to stay at, with one room, one living room, and a training room. Thirty-eight low-grade spiritual stones per day. If you add in the identity ring that can be converted into two spiritual stones per day, the average low-level casual cultivator Too much to bear.
In the Taikoo Holy City, every inch of land is precious, and housing prices are not ordinary expensive.
After summoning the family to report that they were safe, Zhong Yan finally got the answer. Zhong Yan took a long-lasting educational lesson as a young man, which made Gu Dongdong shake his head and scream. He climbed to the cloud several times and contributed a wave of experience.
Afterwards, the two began to sort out what they had gained along the way.
Fifteen storage bags, seven golden elixirs, and eight foundation builders, all of them were deliberately bumped into and killed on the way.
There are not many spiritual stones, most of them are prayer beads and other resources. The most valuable ones are magic weapons of various levels, and six communication bells.
Nowadays, signaling bells are widely used in the Eastern Region. Lin Zhengping bought them for 300,000 yuan each, but now the market price is only 180,000 yuan.
Zhong Yan carefully checked every item in the storage bags of the three 'Eternal Life Hall' members, but found no clues about their identities.
The communication bell must have the contact information of their superior, but since he has died, it is estimated that the other party will not contact him again.
late at night.
After Pang Baodu summoned him for questioning, he came to the inn.
"The woman in green is called Jun Xuanqing. She is at the fifth level of the Golden Core. She comes from the Tiandao Sect. She arrived in the Holy City half a year ago. She should be on a training mission and is stationed at the Holy City of the Tiandao Sect. This is all I have heard about for the time being."
Zhong Yan nodded. Since he had a clear origin, he might be really curious about his method of hiding his realm. However, since the other party could get close to him without him noticing, he was definitely not a simple character, so he had to be careful and guard against it.
"Brother Taoist, do you have a way to sell the stolen goods? The magical weapons snatched on the road."
"How many?"
Zhong Yan handed him a storage bag with half of the proceeds and nine treasures.
Pang Baodu opened it, looked at it, and said with a smile: "The harvest is not bad, I can trust you, I will help you deal with it."
Zhong Yan nodded and asked with a flash of his eyes: "Is there any fat sheep or a way to make money quickly? I want to do some side business."
Pang Baodu laughed. He guessed that he was probably interested in the items at the auction and wanted to take action. He muttered: "The area around the Holy City is the Jiang family's sphere of influence. There are many strong men. It is not safe and easy for bandit cultivators to rob." Something went wrong.”
After a pause, he continued: "Recently, I noticed a person, the silly son of a landlord, who came for the auction. He should have brought a lot of money with him, but he was accompanied by a Yuan Yingqi. If you plan carefully, maybe It’s done, but we can’t make it in time for the auction, so to be on the safe side, we have to fly far away after finishing the job.”
"Forget it, I'll think about it again." Zhong Yan was dumbfounded. Even in the Nascent Soul stage, this fat man dared to scheme and was extremely bold.
With his family and many worries, he is much more timid than before. He is not sure and dare not take too many risks.
Pang Baodu smiled and said: "You really have to be careful here. I still have some money left on hand, so I'll give it to you first."
Zhong Yan said: "No need, I just saw all kinds of products in this holy city trading house, and my heart was filled with excitement and whim."
The gap is huge. How could Pang Baodu have so much money to borrow? It would be a drop in the bucket.
"Are you done with your work?"
"No, I was busy before the auction. On your side..."
"You go about your business, let's take a look around by ourselves."
