Although the old woman who exuded the aura of death did not appear to have any cultivation at first glance.
But how can a person who can set up a stall in Tianyuanfang Market be an ordinary mortal?
Not to mention the fellow casual cultivators around the old woman's stall, who looked at the old woman with faint fear in their eyes.
Obviously, this old woman has extraordinary strength and is a difficult person to deal with.
Ye Jin subconsciously cast the Zhanzhan Qi Technique and saw that the spiritual energy in the old man's body was surging, like a blazing fire.
Unexpectedly, the next second, a huge pressure of spiritual consciousness swept over!
This spiritual consciousness directly interrupted the Qi-gazing technique that Ye Jin was performing.
The old woman opened her wrinkled eyelids, looked at Ye Jin with a pair of cloudy eyes, and said in a hoarse voice:
"Young students, not everyone can use the pupil technique to look at them unscrupulously."
Half a step to Zifu!
There was still a look of shock in Ye Jin's eyes. She never expected that this old human woman, who seemed to have half of her body buried in the ground, would be a powerful being that was not weaker than the King of Black Wind Mountain, Xiong Shanjun!
Fortunately, the old man's spiritual pressure just interrupted his Qi-Watching Technique. If it attacked his soul, with the current strength of Ye Jin's soul in the middle stage of enlightenment, he would not be able to defend himself against the soul attack of a half-step Zifu.
After secretly warning himself, Ye Jin quickly came to his senses, bowed respectfully and apologized:
"Just now, the juniors were offended. Please forgive me, seniors."
The old woman sunk her eyes deep into her sockets and looked deeply at the mandrill. Without saying anything, she closed her eyes again, looking like she was lacking in energy.
This look made Ye Jin want to complain in her heart.
How could a strong man with half a foot in the Zi Mansion lose his energy?
Secretly thinking in his heart, Ye Jin still had a respectful look on his face. He quickly came to the old man's stall and squatted down, looking at the goods on the stall.
Most of the heavenly materials and earthly treasures peddled by the old woman were elixirs, spiritual minerals and other materials, and their grades were not low, with the worst being second-grade mid-grade.
No wonder there were almost no customers in front of the stall, except for Ye Jin.
Those who can afford the existence of second-level middle-grade elixir ores must be in the realm of second-level foundation building and transparency.
Ye Jin just stopped and expressed surprise when he saw the stall.
It's not because the elixir and mine in the old man's stall contain spiritual objects that can cause the Jamfu Treasure Tree to react.
It was because a certain treasure placed on this stall overlapped with a certain treasure in Ye Jin's mind.
Ye Jin squatted down, pointed to a certain treasure on the stall with a respectful expression and asked:
"I dare to ask, senior, what is this? And how is it sold?"
In front of the old man's stall, what the mandrill pointed at was a handful of black-yellow powder. If you zoom in and look carefully, you can see that these powders are not real powders, but crystal-like crystals that look like grains of salt.
Facing Ye Jin's inquiry, the old woman didn't even open her eyes. She just closed her eyes and replied in a hoarse voice:
"One tael of Wu Tu's essence is worth twenty thousand spiritual stones."
It is indeed the essence of Wu Tu!
Ye Jin was secretly happy after hearing this.
Just now, he accidentally spotted this small group of Wutu spirits while wandering around, but because the number of these Wutu spirits was too rare.
In addition, Ye Jin's understanding of the essence of Wutu all came from the description in "The Refining Method of the Five Elements Ruyi Stick". He himself had never really seen what the essence of Wutu looked like.
Therefore, although Ye Jin had some guesses in his heart just now, he was not sure.
Now that he has received the affirmation from the Half-step Zifu, Ye Jin is completely sure that this object is the essence of the five elements earth attribute that is used to refine the "Five Elements Ruyi Stick" - the essence of Wutu!
The only pity is that the handful of Wutu essences in the old man's stall are too rare, only one or two.
And if you want to upgrade one line of Ruyi sticks to two lines, at least five taels of Wutu essence are barely enough, and one tael is definitely not enough.
As for the price of 20,000 spirit stones quoted by the old man, it is not expensive at all and is a normal market price.
After all, according to Ye Jin's budget, a piece of Wutu Essence cost at least 100,000 low-grade spiritual stones. The old man gave 20,000 spiritual stones for one tael of Wutu Essence, which was actually a bit cheaper.
There is nothing to hesitate. Although one or two Wutu essences are far from enough to lift a row of Ruyi sticks to the second row, it is already very lucky to meet them.
Don’t you see Ye Jin, he has shopped almost all over Chiba City, and he only found this little bit at the stalls of Tianyuan Market?
Originally, Ye Jin had pinned his hopes on next year's auction, but he didn't expect to receive some goods now, so why not be satisfied?
He decisively took out 20,000 low-grade spiritual stones and handed them over.
I don’t know what the old woman did, but the spirit stone disappeared as soon as it flew to the stall.
Immediately afterwards, one or two Wutu essences on the stall rose up without wind and slowly floated to Ye Jin.
From beginning to end, the old woman kept her eyes closed, as if she was asleep.
After putting away the essence of Wutu, Ye Jin didn't stand up and leave in a hurry.
Although the elixirs and minerals in the old woman's stall are all extraordinary, they are all dispensable for Ye Jin who pursues the ability to refine Qi threads.
A trace of hesitation flashed in Ye Jin's eyes, and she finally gritted her teeth and asked respectfully and cautiously:
"I wonder if seniors can tell me where this Wutu essence came from. If you can tell me a little bit, I will be very grateful to you."
The voice fell, and the scene fell into silence for a moment.
The old man didn't reply, didn't even open his eyes, and still looked drowsy.
Just when Ye Jin thought the old man refused to answer, a hoarse voice suddenly sounded.
"This essence of Wutu was not obtained by the old woman, but was given to me by a younger generation."
Hearing the old woman's answer, Ye Jin felt happy in her heart and did not dare to neglect. She quickly raised her hands and asked respectfully:
"Senior please also inform this junior about this person's whereabouts. I would be very grateful."
The old woman did not reply after hearing this, but pointed her finger, and a black light flew out of the old man's sleeves and stopped in front of the mandrill.
The black light receded, revealing the true face under the black light. After a closer look, it turned out to be a black jade pendant.
Even without turning on the Qi Watching Technique, Ye Jin could still feel the faint restraining power emanating from the jade pendant.
"This is?"
Holding the jade pendant in her hand, Ye Jin looked puzzled.
"Three days later, there will be a trade fair in the grocery store in the south of the city. This is the voucher. As expected, that junior will appear at the trade fair."
The old woman didn't show off and explained slowly.
black market!
These two words were the first words that came to Ye Jin's mind after listening.
Obviously, the trade fair three days later is a trading place that is different from the Tianyuan Market and the major shops in Tianyuanfang.
In a way, it is similar to next year's auction, but the difference is that this transaction will be in the dark.
At the same time, Ye Jin was also keenly aware that the venue of this trade fair also had a lot of mystery.
The southern part of Chiba Castle is equivalent to a slum.
There are a large number of mortals living there. After all, in the world of cultivating immortals, not everyone can practice. The vast majority of human beings have no spiritual roots and therefore cannot practice.
Most of the relatives who live in the south of Chiba City are relatives of casual cultivators. Since these people do not have spiritual roots, they have one or two family members who have spiritual roots, so they can live in the city instead of outside the city.
However, compared to the entire Chiba City, the gathering place for mortals is a veritable slum for the monks.
After all, it is almost impossible to have monks there, and even if there are, they are at most first- and second-level qi practitioners, rookies who have just entered the world of practice.
The location of the trade fair is located in the south of the city, so it is naturally hidden and can avoid the eyes and ears of most practitioners. It is naturally difficult for Qianye Hall to notice this place.
It is not difficult to see from this that the owner of the trade fair may have thought carefully.
Ye Jin even speculated whether the owner of this trade fair might be the old human woman who was half a step into Zifu.
Although she had some suspicions in her heart, Ye Jin certainly didn't show any of it on her face.
With a grateful look on his face, he put away the black jade pendant. At the same time, he took out five thousand spiritual stones from the storage bag and handed it over, saying respectfully:
"Thank you, senior, for informing me. This is a little thought from junior. Please don't refuse, senior."
Although taking out five thousand spirit stones at once made Ye Jin a little heartbroken.
But one of them is this old human woman who has reached the half-step Zi Mansion. She has no dislike at all for this demon cultivator. Although she behaves a little coldly, she just treats everyone equally. On the contrary, Ye Jin feels that this person is a white ape. A "good guy" who is almost lame and old.
Another reason is that Ye Jin has no intention of making friends with a half-step Zifu strongman.
Although this old woman did not show any strength, she could tell the whole thing just from the huge pressure of spiritual consciousness just now. Ye Jin, who has practiced the "Yamfu Refining Divine Art", can know the strength of the old man. !
This is a strong man who is not weaker than Xiong Shanjun!
Ye Jin even speculated whether Half-Step Zifu was not the old man's real cultivation level. After all, the level of Qi Watching Technique was not high. Just now, Ye Jin only had a startling glance and was forcibly beaten by the old man before he could see clearly. break.
But even so, it was enough for Ye Jin to put some effort into establishing a relationship with a big boss comparable to Zifu. He would stay on Chiba Island for five years in the future.
This time may not be long for a practitioner, but for Ye Jin, five years is enough to do a lot of things.
It has only been five or six years since he traveled through time.
Opposite the mandrill, the old woman finally opened her eyes again after Ye Jin handed over five thousand spirit stones.
This time, the old man's sunken eyes were no longer cloudy and misty, but as deep, distant and bright as the stars in the sky.
Although the old man did not speak, Ye Jin could feel that the old man's eyes were always staring at her.
"Hey...old woman, I accept it."
After staring at the mandrill for a long time, the old woman put away the five thousand spirit stones with an inexplicable smile on her face.
"Junior will not disturb senior's rest."
Seeing that the old woman had accepted the spirit stone, Ye Jin, who had achieved her goal, stopped trying to get too involved, thinking that going too far was not enough, so she stood up decisively and bowed to salute.
"Go and don't forget three days later."
I don't know if it was because of the five thousand spirit stones, but the old woman gave Ye Jin a rare reply.
Then his eyes turned white and turbid again, as if the eyes that were shining like stars just now were just an illusion.
"yes!"
Ye Jin bowed and replied, turning around and leaving with Xiao Ginseng Jing.
He didn't go shopping anymore. There were not many genuine products in Tianyuan Market. Even if there were genuine products, it was not important to Ye Jin for the time being.
Now I have harvested nearly forty spiritual objects, plus one or two Wutu essences and follow-up news about Wutu essences.
Today was a great harvest day for Ye Jin.
When Ye Jin left Tianyuan Market, a very interesting phenomenon also happened.
Ye Jin, who has exposed more than 20,000 spirit stones, is an out-and-out fat sheep in the eyes of the casual cultivators. In addition, Ye Jin is only in the early stage of enlightenment.
For those casual cultivators who lick blood at the tip of their swords, twenty to thirty thousand spirit stones are enough for them to take risks.
In fact, it was not that there were no casual cultivators following him with twinkling eyes.
It's just that these people haven't left Tianyuan Market yet. They don't know what happened. At the same time, their expressions suddenly changed. They looked at the old woman with an awe-inspiring look and left it alone.
Obviously, these people had received the old woman's warning.
Although the old man didn't express it, Ye Jin's five thousand spiritual stones or his attitude at least won the old man's favor.
But of course Ye Jin knew nothing about what happened next.
To be cautious, he still used his old tricks and used the incarnation and the body to change things.
"No one is following you?"
Ye Jin, who had retrieved the life-saving hair, muttered in surprise, then immediately put the incident behind him and flew towards the cave he had just rented.
"Brother Monkey, why don't you buy Baihua Brew..."
The little ginseng spirit lay on top of the mandrill with a lifeless face, and asked in an aggrieved voice.
When I visited Tianyuanfang before, I saw Baihua Brewing for sale in the Spiritual Medicine Pavilion. The little ginseng essence almost flew up with joy.
It's a pity that Ye Jin didn't buy it.
Hearing this, Ye Jin rolled his eyes angrily: "You should drink up your ten pounds of clear spirit syrup first."
Of course, ten kilograms of clear spirit pulp is only one of the reasons. The other reason is that the Baihua Brew in Qianye Island is a bit expensive. Ye Jin's spirit stones have already been planned and he cannot afford to buy many spirit stones for the time being.
"But... I want to drink it..." Xiao Shenjing drew circles aggrievedly.
"Children can't drink!"
"..."
The speed of the little flying talisman was barely slow, and soon, the "D-shaped two-five-three" cave was in sight.
It was still bright when I went out, but when I came back it was already bright and full of stars.
Therefore, there is no difference between men and women when it comes to shopping. Sometimes men cannot stop shopping even when they are eager to shop.
Arriving at the entrance of the cave, Ye Jin used her fingers to create a formation and flew in.
Soon, the three-disaster hell fire formation that hovered at the entrance of the cave spread out into a path, and Ye Jin stepped in with ease.
Who knew that as soon as he stepped into the cave, he heard a gentle call in his ear:
"Master, welcome home"
Ye Jin heard the sound and looked over, only to see a little fox girl in a snow-white dress, with shoulders that were cut into a plain waist, skin that looked like fat orchid, a pair of bright eyes like spring water, and a swaying snow-white fox tail.
The moment I bend down, I can see the full and crystal clear snow that is ready to come out.
Ye Jin took a deep breath:
Hiss - goblin!
…
