The shopkeeper of Zhenbao Pavilion put down the things and nodded: "Fellow Daoist Ji, I can take the decision to collect these things from you. How about I give you two thousand spirit stones?"
Two thousand spirit stones are already a very fair price. Although they are earned from various tasks over the past few years, there is nothing particularly outstanding except for the snake silk grass.
"OK."
There are many talismans being sold these days. Ji Hui and Ji Qingyuan brought them yesterday, plus today there are quite a few.
"Sister Li, I want to see the defensive robes."
"You come with me."
Looking at the dazzling array of robes of various colors in front of him, Ji Qingling felt like crying.
"Isn't there something cheaper?"
Li Xueying shook her head apologetically, "That's what this defensive robe is like. The price difference between low-grade and medium-grade is too big."
Alas, Ji Qingling's spiritual stone was more than enough to buy a high-grade spiritual weapon and robe, but it was too short to buy a mid-grade one.
"How about buying a low-grade one first? If you want to go out to do a task, you dare not wear a cassock. Your coiled dragon arm is not as safe as a cassock."
Li Xueying's suggestion is very pertinent.
Ji Qingling would be undecided for a while, thinking about whether to stop saving and draw more talismans these days.
She just liked the Seven Treasures Armor, and the others could no longer attract her interest.
"let me think again."
When Ji Qingling returned to the sect, he heard the news that He Sheng had advanced to foundation building.
It seems that Senior Brother He has benefited a lot from being in the forbidden land.
Within a few days, Zhou Xianshan and Han Ru also broke through to the foundation building stage, and the sect was in an uproar.
Although there are thousands of disciples, it is normal for someone to break through to foundation building from time to time, but are they all behind the sect's competition?
There were rumors before that someone saw some of the fifty people who won Xiao Bi being taken to the secret place of the sect.
When they went there, they did not hide anything, but they could not tell what happened in the forbidden area.
Maybe the sect also intentionally lets the disciples know about it, so as to encourage the disciples to study hard.
These ten people are all in the Qi Refining Stage. Now three of the ten people have made breakthroughs. How can it not be surprising?
Sun Xiang and Chen Shan from the same hospital came to inquire, but Ji Qingling did not reveal any useful information.
As a result, the outer sect began to hear rumors about special rewards after the competition once every ten years.
Yunhai Peak.
Master Chang Xiu's face was full of anger, Xu Yuewan sat there without saying a word. Her injury had been recovering for a long time, and now she was slightly better.
"My mother said at that time that there would be special rewards for Xiao Bi in the future, and she told you to treat him with caution. Who would have thought that you would underestimate the enemy when you see that he is at the ninth level of Qi Refining?"
Xu Yuewan frowned. She did not underestimate the enemy, but it was better not to explain at this time.
"Ten people in ten years. There are so many elite disciples in the inner sect. If you miss this time, in the next ten years..."
Xu Yuewan immediately received the call, "Mom, don't worry, I will definitely be in the top ten in the next ten years."
Master Changxiu's eyebrows almost stood up, "Aren't you still building the foundation in ten years? Are you still just an outer disciple in ten years?"
"No, mother, don't be angry. I will definitely be able to build the foundation in ten years."
Xu Yuewan had the urge to escape. Ever since the last competition, her mother had come to scold her from time to time.
Especially after the few people from the outer sect established the foundation recently, Master Changxiu became extremely angry and became emotional whenever he talked about it.
This was also the case when she was a child. Some children who were read in Benfeng by the Presbyterian Church were too young. If their parents requested, they would be allowed to go to the outer gate later, so she was already quite old when she went to the outer gate.
In fact, she was quite envious of those who went to the outer sect at a young age. Because there you will not be punished as long as you practice obediently.
When she was young, anything that did not meet her mother's expectations would always result in a scolding and sometimes even a beating.
Regardless of whether she likes it or not, as long as her mother feels good about it, she must do it.
For example, that annoying Zhou Yan, she didn't like the evil star at all. But Lord Shinan liked it, so her mother forced her to take Zhou Yan to play with her.
There are too many such things. Even if she has been in the outer sect for many years, she still can't help but be afraid when her mother is angry and try to please her.
Master Changxiu's lectures continued, but Xu Yuewan could no longer listen.
Sometimes Xu Yuewan would reflect on whether she should change, such as not listening to her mother in everything.
Or speak out your own thoughts without blindly doing what her mother wants.
She can't control her emotions every time she encounters something unsatisfactory.
Every time this happens, she warns herself never to be like her mother and tries hard to calm down her anger.
Especially as you grow older, you can also guess the thoughts of Changxiu Master.
Even though I had been depressed before, I relied on the resources of my Taoist companions to form the golden elixir.
Her nemesis, Qingqiu Zhenren, is now in the late stage of Golden Elixir, and may soon break through to Nascent Soul.
This makes Changxiu Zhenren urgently need something to prove himself, such as that his children are excellent and good.
Xu Yuewan's failure this time disappointed Changxiu Zhenren. She felt that the current situation was entirely due to Xu Yuewan's underestimation of the enemy.
Seeing that his daughter was already absent-minded, Master Changxiu held back his anger and said, "What mother said is for your own good."
"Mom, I know."
The mother and daughter each thought about their own thoughts, and the room became quiet for a while.
~~
For several days, Ji Qingling did not practice, but used all his spiritual power to make talismans.
When the spiritual power is used up, continue to meditate and absorb it, and then paint again, and the cycle continues like this.
She feels like a tool for making talismans now, constantly picking up the pen with luck.
I drew one after another of the most expensive Explosion Talisman, and now my mind was filled with only the Explosion Talisman runes.
There were a few times when I wanted to give up, but thinking about the Seven Treasures Armor, I held back again.
The defensive robe hung in front of her like a carrot, tempting her to keep grinding.

When Ji Zuo came to find her, he found that she was a little depressed.
"Why are you looking like this?"
Ji Qingling didn't want to talk about her affairs everywhere, "It's nothing, I was just so absorbed in drawing the talisman that I forgot about the time."
Ji Zuo had no doubt that he was there, "I came to see you today because I have to go out with my master tomorrow."
You and Daojun just went out. Why did you come to tell me? Ji Zuo could see the confusion on Ji Qingling's face.
"This time we are going to Qingyun Sect."
…
Seeing that Ji Qingling still had an uninterested expression on her face, Ji Zuo stretched out his fingers to push her head.
"You look listless, which is really annoying. Anyway, the master wants to take you to see the world."
Ji Qingling's eyes widened as he shouted, "Take me?"
"By the way."
Ji Qingling ignored him and said, "Please explain clearly."
"There is nothing to explain clearly. My master, Daojun Zhongtai, is going out and said he would take you with him. Just come and wait at the mountain gate tomorrow morning."
"there is none left?"
"What else can I do, just take a junior from the sect out to see the world, that's all."
"What to do?"
"Master didn't say anything. Okay, the words have been conveyed. I'm leaving."
"How early will it be tomorrow morning?"
Ji Zuo ignored her and walked away.
