Han Li then saw another stall selling spirit beasts, but they were not spirit beasts for fighting, but spirit beasts for eating. The cheapest one was the earth spirit rat, which cost two spirit stones per piece, followed by the wind rabbit, which cost four pieces. A spiritual stone.
The stall owner is also roasting an earth rat next to it, and the aroma is overflowing.
Han Li felt his stomach and felt a little hungry, so he took some hard dry food out of his arms and ate it. The smell of meat was everywhere, and Han Li actually ate it with gusto. The people around looked at him with admiration.
After eating, Han Li continued shopping and soon saw a stall selling exercises. Dozens of exercises were placed on the stall.
"'Fire Spirit Technique', 'Housou Tu Technique', that's 'Changchun Gong'!... It's really a local stall."
Han Li thought Jiang Yun was joking about street vendors.
Seemingly noticing Han Li, the stall owner who was meditating on the ground beside him was reading a book and said without raising his head: "Does this fellow Taoist want to buy a skill? You can choose it yourself, two spiritual stones for one book, three spiritual stones for one Two copies.”
Han Li was speechless for a while. Who would practice two techniques at the same time?
Han Li looked around, squatted down and whispered to the stall owner: "I wonder if you know "Aoki Shinju"?"
After hearing what Han Li said, the stall owner put down his book, raised his head and looked at Han Li with a strange expression, but still answered Han Li's question.
"I know, the superior wood-attribute skill "Aoki Shinju" is characterized by strong spiritual power and no fear of poison. The spiritual power consumption of casting wood-attribute spells will be reduced. After the monks who practice this skill build a foundation, they can cast wood-attribute spells. This ability will be retained permanently after the consumption is reduced, just like the innate magical power.
The cultivation speed of this technique is a bit slow, but all the best techniques are like this. Why do you ask? "
"I wonder how much this technique costs? Where can I buy it?"
The stall owner looked Han Li up and down and said with a sneer: "You are so poor and still want to buy high-quality skills? Do you have that spiritual stone?"
"Okay, okay, let's go, don't make fun of me."
Seeing the stall owner chasing people away, Han Liben was ready to leave. As a result, the stall owner pointed to a stall in the distance and said.
"Did you see that old man? There is a fragment of "Aoki Shinju" in his stall, but it is only half a volume. It can only be practiced to the sixth level of the Qi training stage."
"The old man offered one hundred and fifty spiritual stones, and also asked the buyer to swear not to tell anyone else. He has been doing business at my stall for several years. There is really no comparison between people. Well, you can do it yourself Go check it out.”
"Thank you, fellow Taoist."
Han Li did not go to the old man's stall because his goal had been achieved.
Han Li thought silently in his mind: "Half a volume costs 150 spirit stones, so wouldn't it cost me 300 for the whole volume? No, the complete technique requires at least 400 spirit stones, or even higher! And the purchasing power of spirit stones ..."
A quarrel came from a nearby stall.
"This is a 50-year-old green sage grass worth five spiritual stones. You want to sell it for only three spiritual stones. What a beautiful idea!"
"It can't be fifty years, it can only be forty years at most. And it has obviously been kept for a long time, and a lot of the medicinal properties have been lost. Three spiritual stones are a lot."
"Bah, get out of here!"
"Fellow Taoist, don't be angry. As the saying goes, peace brings wealth. Let's do this. I'll add my three spiritual stones..."
Han Li watched for a long time, watching helplessly as the stall owner and the customer were arguing with each other. After half an hour of tug-of-war, the two of them couldn't decide the winner, and finally the four spiritual stones were sold.
At this time, Han Li noticed a commotion around him. Han Li quickly found out the reason. He saw two male cultivators and one female cultivator walking towards them. All three of them were wearing white clothes, although the styles were somewhat different. But the difference is not too big, they are obviously the same group.
He found that the monks around him were looking at those people with envy.
"Fellow Taoist, who are those in white clothes?" Han Li asked a casual cultivator next to him who was looking longingly at him.
This person looked at Han Li strangely and explained. "Boy, which corner did you come from? You don't even recognize the monks of Zhenfan Palace. Did you see the symbol of the Spiritual Crow Holding the Bell on their shoulders?"
"I saw it, and for some reason I felt that this sign was very powerful!"
"Actually, I feel the same way. I heard that this logo was designed by Palace Master Jiang himself."
"Look at the monk who is taking the lead. He wears a Taoist-style uniform that can only be worn by formal members of the Zhenfan Hall. This person is in the Qi training stage. If he is in the Foundation building stage, there are clouds on his sleeves and collar. There’s a tattoo!”
"It would be great if I could also join the Zhenfan Palace!"
"I signed up as a peripheral member a few years ago, but failed! They said I was too old."
"I tried it too, and they said my character is not good. I don't even blink when I kill someone. How can I not have a good character?" A strong man with a sinister face and a look that could scare children said dissatisfiedly.
Han Li watched several monks walking by and thought of his little sister.
"I don't know how my little sister is doing now. She has been pretty since she was a child. She will definitely look better in this uniform."
It wasn't until the three white figures had gone away that Han Li calmed down, took a breath, looked around, and continued to browse the stalls.
Soon Han Li came to a stall selling pill prescriptions and selected pill prescriptions.
Han Li looked at the dozens of prescription prescriptions on the stall. They were old and new, and the paper materials were also different. Some were paper, some were bamboo slips, and some were jade slips.
Some information is revealed on each pill recipe, including the name of the pill, its efficacy, and the required spiritual herbs, but the weight, order, and specific refining methods are not shown.
"Fellow Taoist, I wonder if you have any elixirs suitable for monks in the late stages of Qi training!"
The stall owner was a young man who looked like he was from a good family, but he was yawning listlessly at the moment.
Hearing Han Li's question, the man looked towards Han Li, but after seeing Han Li's attire, he looked uninterested. He pointed at the five pill prescriptions and said.
"These are all elixir recipes suitable for monks in the late stage of Qi training. Except for this white elixir recipe, which contains fifty spirit stones, take the remaining two spirit stones one at a time!"
"Thank you, fellow Taoist!"
Han Li looked over, but for a long time he felt very strange, because the effect of the elixir introduced in the prescription for fifty spiritual stones was no better than that of the other elixirs.
Han Li was puzzled, so he asked the stall owner why.
The stall owner said weakly: "Those five-piece spiritual stones are from ancient prescriptions, so of course they are cheap!"
"I wonder what this ancient prescription says?"
The stall owner gave Han Li a strange look and said, "You Taoist, you are just new to the world of cultivating immortals. I'm not too lazy to lie to you. It's actually very simple. The ancient prescriptions are the elixirs used by monks a long time ago, but these elixirs are now used by monks." It no longer applies to this era!”
"Fellow Taoist, can you tell me in detail!"
"Well, there's no business anyway, so I'm just chatting with you. In fact, the resources and environment in the world of immortality are far inferior to those thousands or even tens of thousands of years ago. Therefore, the cultivation cost of the spiritual herbs required for these ancient recipes is either too high. , or many of them have become extinct, and even if you get the elixir recipe, you won’t be able to gather the required spiritual herbs, so it’s useless!”
Han Li suddenly understood.
"My ancestor was an alchemist from the Qingxu Sect, so he left behind a lot of alchemy recipes. If you want, fellow Taoist, I can give you a cheaper price."
Han Li was a little hesitant. If the cultivation cost was high, he could accept it, but if it was an extinct spiritual grass, there was nothing he could do, and he didn't recognize nine out of ten of these prescriptions. .
At this time, Han Li saw a thick illustrated book of spiritual sketches next to him, and his eyes lit up.
"Fellow Taoist, I didn't know this...
At noon three days later, Han Li was meditating and resting in an open space.
In just three days, Han Li had already understood the information and approximate value of various items in Fang City. He understood that spirit stones were positioned in the world of immortality, equivalent to secular coins.
Next are talismans and elixirs, which are also hard currency, and the prices are very stable. Finally, there are magic weapons. The price of spiritual herbs fluctuates a bit depending on their appearance and quality.
At the same time, he had doubts about the existence of the little green bottle.
Although Han Li had long known that treasures like the little green bottle must be rare, he didn't know how rare they were. After all, he couldn't imagine what the treasures in the hands of high-level monks looked like.
But after half a day of observation, he already understood that the green bottle was completely beyond imagination.
Today there is a twelfth-level old man telling his story. Because the old man is good at taking care of spiritual grass, he was once hired by a big family to take care of several acres of high-grade spiritual fields.
That family is a large immortal cultivating clan with a monk in the alchemy stage. One of the family's most precious assets is the acre of top-quality spiritual field, which can speed up the growth of spiritual grass five times and is one of the foundations of the family.
It is said that the family spent several generations of hard work, even the spiritual veins cultivated by ancestor Lian Dan were used to cultivate it. It can be said that it took a lot of effort.
Han Li touched his chest and muttered in his heart: "The ultimate spiritual field, the foundation of the Dan family, increases the growth rate five times...and the little green bottle..."
"Even if the spiritual liquid in the small green bottle is diluted, one drop can speed up the growth of the herbal medicine hundreds of times, which is equivalent to one year of growth... And Palace Master Jiang is also a monk in the pill-forming stage, and he is also a monk in the pill-forming stage. treasure, isn’t this gap too big?”
Although Han Li was very confused, he never doubted that the green bottle was not lost by Jiang Yun.
But it is undeniable that Han Li is wavering about whether to return the green bottle at this moment. He understands that the green bottle is more valuable than imagined and that the green bottle will be of great help to him. The greed in his heart inevitably appears. This is also a human being. It's normal.
Sitting cross-legged, Han Li was breathing heavily now, his chest began to rise and fall, and his eyelids trembled slightly, showing that his heart was not at peace.
.............
Suddenly, Han Li opened his eyes,
"No! My Han Li family has received such great favor from Senior Jiang. If I, Han Li, are greedy for this, how will I face Senior Jiang, my parents, Zhang Tieliang Feiyu, and those who joined the town? Fandian’s little sister!”
"...How to face myself..."
Han Li took a long breath, his heart gradually calmed down, and there was no confusion in his eyes anymore.
.........Jiang Yun's arrangement from all aspects including himself, relatives, friends, etc. has produced an effect. If Han Li really doesn't return it, he will probably have inner demons. Even if he gets it under the dust in his heart, The little green bottle can't go far unless he kills Jiang Yun and becomes completely possessed.
Jiang Yun also made the right bet, betting that Han Li was kind in his heart. It doesn't matter if he loses the bet, Jiang Yun has his own way to eliminate the threat.
Han Li stood up slowly and looked at a certain building in Fang City. It was a four-story building.
Tainan Mountain is full of stalls, and even individual shops are small in scale. Therefore, the four-story building is as eye-catching as the Tainan Mountain Tower where the Immortal Ascension Conference is held.
"Fanlou..."
Han Li touched a white jade token hidden at his waist.
Han Li had already inquired about the location of Fanlou, and it could be said that he could ask anyone about it.
At that time, Jiang Yun gave Han Li a white jade token, saying that he would be treated favorably if he got it from Fanlou.
Although Han Li didn't know what this courtesy meant specifically, he knew that outsiders could not enter Zhenfandian headquarters, so he could only go to Fanlou to inquire about Jiang Yun.
Han Li walked along the bluestone road towards the Mortal Building. The closer he got to the Mortal Building, the easier it was to see monks with high levels of cultivation. There were many monks on the 11th and 12th floors in the Qi training stage.
In addition, the way you dress is completely different from where you visit the stalls. There are many people wearing fairy skirts and robes.
Han Li also saw a female cultivator carrying a golden ring magic weapon on her wrist, a male cultivator carrying a giant sword magic weapon on her back, and it was not uncommon for monks to have spiritual pets.
At the same time, the Zhenfandian monks who were rarely seen in the stall area gradually began to increase in number.
However, there are always a few rich people, and most of them are dressed similar to Han Li. Han Li is wearing a cloth shirt and is not eye-catching at the ninth level of Qi training.
When they arrived at the gate of Fanlou, there was no one to greet them, but not far from the door there were five huge canine beasts that were five feet tall at the shoulders even when they were lying on their backs.
Han Li had seen spirit beasts in the booth area before, but they were all small spirit beasts, including spirit birds. This is the first time I have seen such a big body.
Hey, there are actually four cubs. The big one is about the size of a local dog, and the smallest one is only the size of a fist. It seems that it was just born without opening its eyes. It makes a cute squealing sound.
Han Li used his spiritual eye technique to observe and found that the cultivation levels of several large spiritual dogs were much higher than his own. Two of them had no discernible cultivation level, so they were probably the legendary second-level spiritual beasts.
Han Li couldn't help but sigh in his heart: "As expected of the Mortal Building, even the watchdogs are spiritual beasts! I'm afraid I can't defeat even one."
Han Li took a few more curious glances, then looked into the store and found that although there were many customers inside, everyone was communicating quietly. No one was quarreling or bargaining at all, and there were no such things as fights. .
Except for a few shopkeepers standing behind the counter who were wearing Zhenfandian's white Dharma clothes, the other clerks were all wearing cyan outfits and looked energetic, but they also had the Zhenfandian's big bell logo on the chest.
"Boom!"
At this moment, Han Li was hit hard on the shoulder.
"Boy, don't block the road!" An arrogant voice sounded from his ears. Han Li was knocked back half a step. After he stood firm and looked around, the person who hit him was a male cultivator in blue.
However, since the man did not turn around and only saw his back, he could not tell what his appearance was. However, Han Li discovered that this man's cultivation had reached the eleventh level of Qi training, which was two levels higher than Han Li's.
Behind this person was a female cultivator, who was wearing a long yellow dress. She had an elegant appearance and a heroic spirit between her brows and eyes.
The woman showed an apologetic expression to Han Li with both hands, and then quickly followed the male cultivator.
Han Li didn't care about it and walked towards the store. The counters, tables and chairs and furniture in the store were all made of silver-gray wood, and the wood didn't seem to be ordinary things. They all exuded a certain smell. A weak aura.
Han Li was attracted as soon as he entered the store. Behind each shopkeeper in white clothes, there is a display cabinet with different items placed in the cabinet.
There are ten counters on the entire first floor, four of which sell magical instruments, and one of them is a women's counter, because the magical instruments inside are all women's skirts, brocade handkerchiefs, ribbons, and even long swords.
The other counters sell spiritual insect eggs, spiritual beast cubs, elixirs, exercises, and talismans.
There is also a counter for purchasing items, and it is also the busiest of all counters. There are only a dozen monks queuing up, and each monk is holding a copper token in his hand.
When a person sells the item in his hand to the counter, in addition to getting the spirit stone on the spot, the shopkeeper will also take out a silver token and flash it white light at the copper token, and then return it to the customer.
Han Li found that the male cultivator who had bumped into him was at the elixir counter. The male cultivator took out a golden token and spiritual stone from his arms. After checking the token, the shopkeeper handed the male cultivator a jade bottle.
Han Li was a little curious and moved closer without moving his expression.
"Senior Brother Lu, you actually have Fanlou's premium membership token. This is a rare item. Fanlou stopped selling this item five years ago. It is said that this was to prevent some customers from being able to buy what they wanted due to too many being issued. items.”
"It is said that this item has been sold for thousands of spiritual stones on the black market. Only my father and ancestors in our Chen family own this item." The female cultivator looked at the golden token and said in admiration.
The male cultivator threw the token in his hand and looked around proudly. Many monks looked at the token with envy, but some monks snorted coldly.
The male cultivator would not tell the little beauty next to him that he borrowed the token from his grandfather shamelessly.
The male cultivator played with the token and said with a smile: "The next auction of Mortal Building will be held five days before the Immortal Ascension Conference. There are less than three months left. With this item, you can participate, and you can also bring one with you." Man, I will take my junior sister to have a look when the time comes."
"I have reliable information. Not only will three Foundation Establishment Pills be auctioned in this auction, but also the Qingfeng Beast cubs at the door. Those are very powerful spiritual beasts. If they are Qingfeng Beasts with ordinary qualifications, Of course it won’t catch my eye.”
"But the ones at the door are different. I met my uncle a few days ago. My uncle told me that the qualifications of the cubs at the door are all first-class! And the Qingfeng Beast just matches my wind spirit root qualifications. It is said that many monks are staring at those cubs!"
The female cultivator nodded and said: "The Qingfeng Beast is a very good spiritual beast. The Jiang family got a lot of it from somewhere. Our Chen family originally wanted to buy a few Qingfeng Beast cubs with good qualifications from the Jiang family for the core. As the clan’s natal spiritual beast, the Jiang family refused to sell it and was only willing to sell the Wind and Fire Wolf cubs.”
"Who doesn't know that although there is not much difference in combat power between the two, the Qingfeng beast is very loyal and brave, and is more suitable as a spiritual pet than the cunning and cruel Wind Fire Wolf! The Jiang family is too stingy."
"But speaking of the auction, my father took me there once before. I was deeply impressed that time and I really want to go again." The nun said happily.
But the female cultivator didn't notice that the male cultivator's face stiffened slightly, because the male cultivator himself had never been there even once. However, it can also be seen from this incident that the female cultivator has an extraordinary background.
The female cultivator continued: "But Brother Lu, do you have so many spiritual stones to buy the Qingfeng Beast? Although there are many good things at the Fanlou auction, the final transaction price will be much higher than the market price."
"The most impressive thing about the last auction I attended was the auction of a sixth-level demon elixir, which was eventually sold by a senior at the elixir formation stage for eight thousand spirit stones."
"And for the same Qingfeng beast, the price can differ five to ten times between those with good qualifications and those with poor qualifications. If the cubs at the door are really top-grade, they will probably be very expensive!"
The male cultivator touched the storage bag on his waist. Inside was all his belongings and all the financial support given to him by his family, including a thousand spirit stones and the top-grade magical weapon, the Green Dragon Flag. The family also said that there will be no other funding until he succeeds in building the foundation.
"Don't worry, I'm not one of those poor guys who can only eavesdrop. I'm not even qualified to participate." The male cultivator said pointedly.
Han Li on the side naturally knew who the other party was talking about, so he pretended not to have heard and walked away.
"Hmph, these casual cultivators have the nerve to step in here. If you ask me, Fanlou should put the purchase counter at the back door, so that those casual cultivators..."
"Senior Brother Lu!" Before the male cultivator could finish speaking, the female cultivator quickly interrupted him and kept winking at the male cultivator.
The male cultivator saw that many cultivators present looked at him with unkind eyes, including two shopkeepers wearing white clothes from the Zhenfan Palace.
The male cultivator then remembered that there were many casual cultivators among the members of Zhenfan Hall, many of whom had successfully built the foundation. Thinking of this, the male cultivator felt a chill on his back and quickly shut up and led the female cultivator outside.
One of the shopkeepers had a stern look in his eyes and moved his mouth slightly. A male cultivator who was sleeping in a tree hundreds of meters away opened his eyes.
The male cultivator glanced out of the corner of his eye at the man and woman who were leaving in a hurry at the door of Fan Building. A slight smile appeared on his lips, and he turned down the tree and followed them.
From this person's attire, it can be seen that he is an official member of the Qi Training Stage of Zhenfan Palace, and his cultivation has reached the thirteenth level of the Qi Training Stage.
