After visiting all the shops in Tianyuanfang, it was already dusk, and I had been shopping for more than three hours without realizing it.
But Ye Jin had no intention of going back.
Because in Tianyuanfang, in addition to shops, there is also a market where casual cultivators gather.
Markets and shops are different.
Like shops, most shops are controlled by family forces.
Such as the "Treasure Pavilion" opened by the Gu family, the "Treasure Pavilion" opened by the Yang family, etc.
These shops can only open such a store in the prime location of Tianyuanfang in Chiba City after paying the rent to Chiba City.
It doesn't take much thinking to guess that this rent is a sky-high price for casual cultivators.
Only the Gu family, the Yang family, or the Chen family, who took the spiritual boat not long ago, have such financial resources to open a business.
Ye Jin once asked at the entrance of Qianye Hall how much the rent would be for a three-story loft in Tianyuanfang, a prime location like Zhenbao Pavilion.
At that time, the housekeeper in the hall reported a number with an expressionless face.
One hundred thousand!
At least 50,000 spiritual stones are needed.
That's just one month's rent.
It is equivalent to paying a rent of 500,000 spiritual stones a year to rent such a three-story building.
Although Qianye City spends a large amount of spiritual stones every year to maintain formations and defend against sea monsters, it also spends part of the spiritual stones to the alchemy-forming force Jinyangmen and the demon cultivation force Shituo Island.
But overall, the total number of spirit stones Chiba Island earns annually is definitely an astonishing number.
Even if this amount of spiritual stones is divided equally among the five third-level bosses of Zi Mansion, the amount of spiritual stones that fall on everyone's head will still feel like a lot.
It’s no wonder that both Jinyangmen and Shituo Island want to bring Qianba Island into their own sphere of influence.
Who doesn’t want to devour the fat of Chiba Island?
Fortunately, the Guangyuan Secret Realm incident on Bihan Island drew the attention of the two alchemy-forming forces away.
Otherwise, the two families may have to fight openly and secretly over the fat piece of Chiba Island.
Having said that, the market in Tianyuanfang is an area specially designated by Qianye Hall for casual cultivators who have no family or background to set up stalls.
In the words of the previous life, it is somewhat similar to the immortal version of a flea market.
Since the stalls in Tianyuan Market are all casual cultivators, the things they sell are naturally all kinds of things.
There are all kinds of magical weapons, spiritual plants, elixirs, ores, talismans, exercises, etc.
From the lost secrets of ancient times to the ordinary, not even first-level, inferior amulets, as long as you can think of it, there is nothing that Tianyuan Market does not have.
Of course, as for the truth and falsehood inside, it is a matter of opinion.
Whether you can buy the real thing depends on your personal vision and luck.
It is said that a Qi practitioner once bought a broken magic weapon from a certain stall in Tianyuan Market with ten low-grade spiritual stones. He thought it was rubbish, but unexpectedly it turned out to be a broken magic weapon.
Moreover, there was still a possibility of repairing this magic weapon, so a certain boss shouted out the astronomical price of 500,000 spiritual stones on the spot.
This incident even alarmed the leader of the Zifu of Qianye Hall.
As for the lucky Qi-training casual cultivator who obtained these five hundred thousand spirit stones under the witness of the leader of Qianye Hall Zi Mansion, it can be said that he became rich overnight.
In the follow-up, some people said that this lucky casual cultivator was intercepted and killed as soon as he left Chiba City, while others said that this person finally relied on these 500,000 spirit stones to practice all the way to the perfection of Qi training, and successfully broke through the foundation building.
No one can know whether the news is true or false.
But according to Ye Jin's guess, the former is more likely.
After all, half a million spiritual stones is a huge sum of money.
If he were at the scene, he would definitely intercept and kill this person secretly.
There are definitely a majority of casual cultivators who have this idea, and even the second-level foundation-building Tongming, and even the third-level Zi Mansion Concentration boss may be tempted.
It is basically impossible for a mere Qi practitioner to escape from a crowd of people looking at him.
Of course, the greater possibility is that this rumor is just a smoke bomb released by Qianye Hall for the benefit of Tianyuan Market.
The purpose is to harvest leeks from the huge group of casual cultivators.
"Take a look, take a look, the second-level middle-grade aphrodisiac pill is on sale at a loss, not ninety-eight, not ninety-eight, just ten spirit stones, all ten spirit stones! Not the ten girls of Ye Yu Dream, revive the man’s glory!”
"The ancient magic weapon Qiankun Yin-Yang Pearl can strengthen the foundation and cultivate the vitality, cleanse the marrow and refine the soul. You only need one hundred spiritual stones, and you can take it home. All the used ones are said to be good!"
"..."
As soon as I arrived at the Tianyuan Market, the entire street was filled with the sounds of all kinds of hawking.
But this content... part-time job is terrible.
Not to mention the aphrodisiac pill, he was surrounded by a group of male cultivators on three floors inside and three floors outside, and it was impossible to get through.
As for Lao Shizi's ancient magic weapon, the Qiankun Yin-Yang Pearl, Ye Jin didn't want to complain after hearing it.
If it is really a magic weapon, are you sure that the magic weapon from ancient times can still be preserved to this day?
It has to be at least a magic weapon level, right?
After applying Zhanzhan Qi Technique to observe, the Qiankun Yin-Yang Pearl with its lofty name is just a Night Pearl with a little bit of aura.
As for the last Mr. Sheephorn...
Ahem, cough, cough, don't mention it, Yingying Yanyan, you want to refuse but you are ashamed.
Ye Jin couldn't help but secretly regret, this Tianyuanfang wouldn't be a version of "Pan Jiayuan" for cultivating immortals, right?
Especially don't sell fakes.
Facts have proved that although the vast majority of Tianyuan Market is filled with inferior garbage or magical weapons at the first level of Qi training and spiritual enlightenment, there are still some stalls selling good things.
"My Healing Game"
Because Ye Jin did not hide his cultivation, the realm of transparency made those stall owners hesitant to solicit customers from mandrills.
Ye Jin also quickly arrived at the end of Tianyuan Market and stopped in front of a stall.
This stall is not as crowded as the previous stalls. There are almost no people in front of this stall.
The stall area is not large, only three or four square meters.
But the things on this stall are anything but ordinary.
These are not ordinary elixirs or magic weapons, but "parts" from monsters!
Ah no, strictly speaking, they should be parts of sea beasts.
Such as teeth, carapace, spiny fins, etc.
Why did Ye Jin conclude that it was a sea monster?
Because Ye Jin felt the fishy smell of the sea from these organs.
Moreover, the original owner of this sea beast organ is at least the second level, and every part being sold exudes a powerful force.
The stall owner who set up the stall was not ordinary either. Like Ye Jin, he was also a demon cultivator.
It was just a wolf demon, wearing a shabby robe, with a long and hideous scar on his face, one eye was blind, his eyes were sharp, and he exuded a fierce aura.
Although he did not deliberately emit demonic energy, it is not difficult to guess from the aura that this wolf demon is at least in the enlightened stage.
The reason why Ye Jin stopped in front of the stall was, of course, because a certain sea animal organ on the stall caused the reaction of the "Jamfu Treasure Tree".
This incident also made Ye Jin discover that the organs of sea beasts and barbaric beasts are similar to those of demon cultivators, and their special organs can refine Qi threads.
Ye Jin squatted in front of the stall, with the little ginseng essence on his neck, curiously looking at the things on the stall.
The wolf demon opened one eye, looked at the mandrill, looked at the little ginseng spirit, and then quickly closed his eyes to rest, as if he didn't want to answer.
Ye Jin didn't care, he reached out and pointed at a fish fin as big as a fan on the stall and asked:
"How much is it?"
The wolf demon glanced sideways and said calmly:
"Second-order scarlet rainbow whale fin, killed just half a month ago, one thousand spirit stones."
Ye Jin nodded slowly. He had also heard of the Red Rainbow Whale Ye Jin. He was similar to the Crouching Tiger Shark he had encountered before. The adults had strength comparable to the second-level Foundation Establishment Transparent.
Moreover, the price quoted by the wolf demon is not expensive. Compared with the second-level elixirs and spiritual mines, these organs from sea beasts are much cheaper.
Of course, this red rainbow whale fin is not a spiritual object that causes the [Jamfu Treasure Tree] to react. Ye Jin is just testing it.
After nodding, Ye Jin pointed to a tooth of an unknown sea creature as if nothing had happened.
The tooth was still bloodshot, and one could tell it had just been killed. It looked like a small dagger at first glance.
"Where's this beast's tooth?"
The wolf demon glanced at the mandrill, then looked at the beast's teeth, and said slowly:
"The saber teeth of the second-order saber-toothed shark were slaughtered yesterday and cost two thousand spiritual stones."
Sabre-toothed sharks are much stronger than red whales and crouching tiger sharks.
Red rainbow whales and crouching tiger sharks basically appear in groups according to their groups, and the strongest individual strength is only comparable to the early stage of foundation building and transparency.
But the saber tooth shark is different.
The hunting method of sabertooth sharks is the same as above, with a maximum of two males and females hunting, and most of them hunt alone.
In terms of strength, it is much stronger than the Red Rainbow Whale and Crouching Tiger Shark. The strength of an adult individual can even be comparable to that of a second-level perfect practitioner, which is extremely powerful.
The original owner of the saber-toothed shark tooth in front of Ye Jin should not have grown to adulthood yet, which is probably the middle stage of the second stage.
But even so, it is not difficult to see how powerful this wolf monster is, and its combat power is extraordinary.
This type of practitioner is like a sea beast hunter who specializes in hunting sea beasts to earn spiritual stones.
Needless to say, these sea beast hunters must have extraordinary combat prowess and rich experience in various fighting techniques.
Because of those rubbish in strength, all the sea beast hunters with underground combat power are dead.
All sea beast hunters still alive are among the best at their level.
The wolf demon is one of them.
But this has nothing to do with Ye Jin. He just wants to collect more spiritual objects and improve his bloodline as soon as possible.
Two thousand spiritual stones are quite cheap compared to the second-level spiritual objects that can be refined into Qi threads, even to the point of being cheap.
Ye Jin didn't hesitate at all and decisively took out two thousand low-grade spiritual stones and handed them over.
The wolf demon didn't seem to expect that Ye Jin would be so decisive. When the spirit stone was delivered to him, he was stunned for a moment. He quickly recovered from his displeasure, and after a rough sweep of his spiritual sense, he put the spirit stone away.
His attitude was rare: "It's yours."
Ye Jin collected all the teeth of the saber-toothed shark. Unfortunately, only this one in the entire stall could be refined, and the other sea beast organs had no effect.
I don’t know if it’s because it took too long or because it couldn’t be refined.
After putting away his saber teeth, Ye Jin did not get up and leave, but greeted Dao politely:
"I'm in Xiashankui. What do you call me my friend?"
Perhaps because of a deal, the wolf demon rarely looked directly at the mandrill, and bowed his hand in a dignified manner:
"Red blood."
Ye Jin nodded and said, "Friend Scarlet Blood is a sea beast hunter, right?"
The wolf demon nodded slightly when he heard this:
"Exactly."
Ye Jin's eyes flashed with excitement and he asked hurriedly:
"Fellow Scarlet-blooded Daoist, I have a spiritual weapon that requires some fresh special sea beast organs. From now on, Fellow Daoist Scarlet-blooded, if you hunt down sea beasts, why don't you let me pick them out first? If it's suitable, I will offer it at a price higher than the market price." 10% acquisition.”
"no problem."
Of course the wolf demon Chixue would have no objection.
For him, selling to others is also selling, selling to Ye Jin is still selling, it’s the same anyway, and he can earn 10% more income, so why not?
As for the spiritual weapon Ye Jin mentioned, there was nothing surprising about Chi Xue.
After all, the world is so big and full of wonders, what kind of weird magic weapon isn’t there?
Even evil cultivators use magic tools to refine souls and souls, and they only use the organs of sea beasts, nothing to be surprised about.
A hint of joy flashed across Ye Jin's face, and she raised her hand and sent a talisman over:
"This is the cave where I am. If you, fellow Taoist, have any parts of sea beasts that you have hunted, just use this transmission instrument to inform me. In addition to fellow Taoist, all the sea beast hunters you know can inform me, and I will give you a high-level response." Purchase it at 10% of the market price.”
This is the result of Ye Jin's careful consideration.
Since the organs of sea beasts can also refine Qi threads, and the resources of sea beasts in the Canglan Sea are endless, then the resources of sea beast hunters can be used to purchase sea beast organs in the long term.
Of course it's not impossible to hunt it yourself, but one thing is that not every sea beast's organ can be used to refine Qi thread, and the efficiency of one person is too slow, which is far less fast than purchasing the sea beast's organs.
The most important thing is that sea beast organs are much cheaper than elixirs and mines that can also refine qi threads.
How could Ye Jin miss such a resource that was both affordable and capable of refining Qi silk for a long time?
Chixue was very happy to see that Ye Jin was a long-term customer. He carefully put away the musical instrument, nodded and replied:
"Don't worry, Brother Shankui. Once I have resources, I will definitely sell them to you first, including the sea beast hunters I know."
"Thank you so much, fellow Taoist."
Ye Jin smiled politely and nodded, not staying any longer, saying a few words and then continued shopping.
With the receipt of sea animal organs, it doesn't matter if there are no more spiritual objects in the Tianyuan Market that can cause the Jamfu Treasure Tree to react.
Ye Jin just thought this, and after walking not far, his eyes involuntarily fell on a certain stall.
"Eh? Is this?!"
With a slight sigh in his mouth and a little surprised in his heart, Ye Jin quickly walked to the stall.
The owner of the stall was an old human woman, her whole body shrouded in a black robe. She was as skinny as wood, with white hair as dry as grass, her face was covered with age spots, and her whole body exuded a sense of death.
