Chapter 64 Wind Attribute Spiritual Fruit
Chapter 64 Wind Attribute Spiritual Fruit
Taking advantage of the night, Lin Shan followed Gongsun Yu's instructions, turned right at the intersection ahead, and walked about four or five miles before a brightly lit town appeared before his eyes.
A large stone stood next to it, with two large characters "Yichuan" engraved on it in ancient seal script.
"Is this the gathering place for immortal cultivators?"
Lin Shan walked to the foot of the city with the mood of a young goose returning home, feeling as excited as if he was on a pilgrimage.
At the door, two monks in the late stage of Qi training, wearing white and blue robes, stopped him and stretched out their hands to ask, "Token!"
Lin Shan was confused: "What token?"
The two of them saw him standing there for a long time, not knowing what to do, and raised their eyebrows: "New here?"
Lin Shan quickly said yes.
The two men didn't waste any time and took Lin Shan to one side to register. They simply asked his name, then extracted a trace of his aura and imprinted it on a token similar to a magic weapon.
After finishing the job, Lin Shan took the token and the enhancement panel popped up, but this thing had no enhancement value, it was just an identity card.
The immortal cultivator who was like a market law enforcer next to him gave him a brief reminder: "To rent a cave, you need to take your identity token to the Internal Affairs Hall in the city center to make arrangements."
"The caves opened in the mountains outside the city are rented out for two spirit stones a month."
"The cultivation caves in the city cost ten spirit stones per month for the cheapest ones and thirty spirit stones per month for the most expensive ones."
"The south of the city is the stall area, the north of the city is the shop area, the east of the city is the monks' residential area, and the west of the city is the entertainment area."
"No fighting is allowed in the market. Once caught, you will be expelled from Yichuan and will never be allowed to enter again."
"Every month, we will check on the monks who have not rented their caves for a long time and have been practicing in Yichuan Mountain. If we are caught, we will expel them and will never be allowed to enter again."
……
After explaining the rules to Lin Shan one by one, the two law enforcers let him in when they saw that he understood them.
As soon as I entered the city, I immediately felt that the concentration of spiritual energy in the city was more than three times that of the outside world! It was equivalent to fifteen times that of the outside world! No wonder the housing prices were so expensive.
Lin Shan secretly calculated his belongings. On that day, he collected about 50 spiritual stones from the hook-nosed man and the green-robed old man, which was probably the offerings of the two people in the mortal world for ten years.
The hook-nosed man had only a low-level magic sword and some books and notes on refining in his storage bag. The green-robed old man had a small tower for raising flying ants, a bunch of unknown bottles and jars, and some experience in raising insects.
Lin Shan recalled that he had only cared about momentary pleasure and destroyed all the talismans and magical tools of the hook-nosed man, leaving only a few spoils of war.
The green-skinned gourd that the green-robed old man used to raise moths was also destroyed by him. As for the flying ants raised in the small tower, he was too late to collect them in order to avoid the pursuit of Princess Guo and others.
Now there is only an empty tower left, but there are still some insect eggs inside.
But how can I raise insects myself? If I don’t learn it for three to five years and raise it myself, how can I possibly master it?
Now that I'm at the market, I have to find a way to deal with these useless things. The best way is to sell them for some money.
He counted the spirit stones he had now, a total of 220. 30 of them were used to buy red fruits for the Grand Elder, and 80 were used to redeem people for Master Huang. He only had 110 for himself.
He could not touch Master Huang's spirit stones for the time being, because he didn't know how much he needed to redeem the female cultivator in the brothel.
It’s okay to refund more, but it’s impossible to make up for less!
With this little spiritual stone of mine, I'm afraid at best I can only live in the market for less than a year! And that's if I don't buy anything.
"Never mind, let's find a place to stay first." Because it was dark, although there were lanterns hanging on the streets of the market, all the shops were closed and there were not many cultivators wandering on the streets.
Lin Shan found an inn in the city and rented a room. One spirit stone was enough for three nights of accommodation. He settled down there first to relieve the fatigue from the journey of more than half a month.
……
The next morning, Lin Shan opened the window of the guest room and saw monks already starting to move around on the street.
He noticed that most of the monks in the market town had just come in from outside the city. After all, the housing prices in the city were too high, so everyone had to squeeze into the suburbs.
Lin Shan left the inn and went to the shop area in the market town first. According to the instructions of the Grand Elder Nightingale, he first found the Treasure Pavilion he mentioned.
Baibao Pavilion is located in a prosperous area of the shopping district. It has interlaced brackets and a yellow tile roof. It has an ancient flavor and extraordinary style. Many monks come in and out.
Entering the inner hall, various skills, elixirs, weapons, ores, spiritual herbs, puppets, formations, etc. were classified and placed in different areas. Lin looked east and west, like Granny Liu entering the Grand View Garden.
Perhaps seeing Lin Shan looking for something, a discerning steward in the lobby came up to him and asked, "Fellow Daoist, what are you looking for?"
After searching for a long time, Lin Shan smiled awkwardly and scratched his head in embarrassment. "I heard that your store has Xiantian Zhu Fruit for sale, so..."
The manager nodded and said, "Fellow Daoist, you are referring to the Five Elements Spiritual Fruit, right? Come, sit here."
Lin Shan followed the steward and sat down on one side. After a while, someone came out with a long jade box and placed it in front of the table for them.
"Clap!"
The steward opened the box, and five spiritual fruits of different colors lay quietly in the box. They were the five elements spiritual fruits of gold, wood, water, fire and earth, with five different attributes.
"What kind of spiritual fruit do you need, and how many do you need? Our store has everything. One fruit is priced at thirty spiritual stones. We are honest and fair."
Lin Shan then realized that the innate red fruit, which was fought over by innate masters in the secular world, seemed to be no different from the cabbages grown in the yard of a cultivator's home, and was not rare at all.
However, the Grand Elder didn't seem to tell him what kind of fruit he wanted, so Lin Shan simply chose a wood spirit fruit. Wood spirit energy is the mildest, and there shouldn't be any major problems if he eats it.
Lin Shan paid thirty spirit stones and put the wood spirit fruit in his pocket. He breathed a sigh of relief, and a promise was fulfilled. He could spend the remaining twenty spirit stones of the Grand Elder with peace of mind in the future.
However, Lin Shan had an idea in mind at this time, so he pulled the manager of Baibao Pavilion and asked, "I just saw the Five Elements Spiritual Fruit. I wonder if there is a wind spirit fruit of the same species in the world?"
The manager of Baibao Pavilion was knowledgeable and nodded as a matter of course. He had just completed a deal and naturally had some favorable impression of Lin Shan.
"That's right. As a low-level spiritual object, the Vermillion Fruit blooms and bears fruit every hundred years. It naturally has the properties of wind, thunder, ice and other five elements. But it is relatively rare, and our store currently has no stock."
"However," the steward changed the subject, "there is no wind attribute vermilion fruit, but there are other wind attribute spiritual fruits. Daoist friend, would you like to take a look?"
Lin Shan naturally thanked him. The manager felt that he could make a second fortune and immediately ordered his men to go and get more.
After a while, a jade jar the size of a teapot was taken out. The steward unscrewed the lid and green dates lay inside.
Lin Shan could feel the pure wind spirit brewing in it, and he couldn't help but feel a desire in his heart. If he ate this every day, he would probably be able to reach the peak of the sixth level of Qi training sooner or later and touch the bottleneck of the middle stage.
The steward secretly looked at Lin Shan's expression, and seeing that he was interested, he smiled slightly.
"This is Fengzao, a low-level spiritual fruit with wind attribute. There are 20 pieces in a can, and the price is 60 spiritual stones."
