I save spiritual roots for the next life.

Chapter 59
Thinking of continuing to subscribe to the residence newspaper, Li Jizhou had to examine his financial resources again.

In the seven and a half years of hanging down the mountain, after excluding daily expenses, intensive study of talisman seals, training in medicine and poisoning, and enriching one's hole card library, in the end, only [-] spirit stones were accumulated.

The main reason is that the skill of talismans in the early stage was low, the success rate was low, the quality of talismans was poor, and the profit was low, and I never treated myself badly in terms of cultivation resources. There was never a shortage of spiritual rice and spiritual flesh.

It really started to make a profit, mainly in the next two years, especially after joining Wanfu Pavilion. I was already a first-level intermediate talisman teacher at that time, and my success rate increased. In addition to the benefits of Wanfu Pavilion's guest officials, the recycling price increased by [-]%, and the profit was much higher.

In addition, he was in a chaotic place like the Hanging Mountain at that time, so he had accumulated a lot of hole cards. Now he still has 30 cards in his storage bag, including 50 first-level high-level talisman seals, more than [-] mid-level high-quality talismans, and more than [-] mixed spirit powder and soul-eating incense talismans, with a total value of more than one hundred spirit stones.

Calculated comprehensively, in the last two years of Daoxuanshan, the actual monthly income was close to 30 spirit stones, and the spiritual meat of Lingmi cost about eight spirit stones, the mansion reported 50 taels of spirit sand, the scrapped talisman paper, and the wasted spirit ink was within [-] taels of spirit sand.

The monthly surplus is around twenty spirit stones.

Now when I come to Lingzhushanfang City, the rent is 50 Lingshi per month, and the price of Lingmi, Lingmeat, daily necessities has doubled, and I need about [-] Lingshi, and the formation energy of the guardian circle is [-] taels of Lingsha per month, plus the mansion report...

Be conservative, earn less than 45 Lingshi per month, and you can't maintain it!

If you still sell talismans only by making talismans in Daoxuanshan, you can only sell talismans below the middle-level high-grade, which is not enough.

Now I spend 220 spirit stones to rent a house, and [-] spirit stones to set up an array, leaving only [-] three pieces.

Fortunately, the storage bags of the three tribulation repairs yielded a hundred spirit stones, and the eight receptionists had a total of thirty spirit stones.

A total of 350 three spirit stones, this is my entire net worth.

"Life is never easy!"

"If I didn't have the memory inheritance of the second-level alchemist in my previous life, and I have practiced "Yanlin Jue" to condense a trace of alchemy fire, which can guarantee that I can earn more spirit stones than talisman seals through alchemy within a year, how dare I live in this exclusive courtyard."

"If it's other casual cultivators, and they are newcomers, I'm afraid they can only live in a small attic in the outer area of ​​Dwelling Fang City, and eat a small amount of food, and they are struggling everywhere, saving money!"

After knowing what was in his mind, Li Jizhou put aside distracting thoughts and started to practice.

Three months passed by in a hurry.

"Dong Dong Dong~"

On this day, Li Jizhou had just finished his work and retracted a ray of light blue flame in his palm, when there was a knock on the door outside the courtyard.

Scanning with his consciousness, he saw a middle-aged man wearing the deacon robe of Wanfu Pavilion standing quietly in front of the door, his attitude seemed very respectful.

Li Jizhou was slightly suspicious,
When he came to Lingzhu Shanfang City, he didn't go to the Wanfu Pavilion to show his face first, and only waited until March when he needed to deliver this year's guest minister mission.

Unexpectedly, the other party took the initiative to come to the door.

Open the door to welcome guests.

"The deacon of Lingzhu Mountain Branch has seen Li Keqing!" Seeing the door open, the deacon immediately clasped his hands together.

"Fellow Daoist, please be polite." Li Jizhou nodded in return.

"I would like to invite Haihan if I bother you, but our shopkeeper Qi had a drink with the Fangshi manager yesterday, and we accidentally heard about Li Keqing's renting a house here. According to the rules, when you come here, our branch cabinet should clean up the dust for you.

So Shopkeeper Qi ordered me to deliver invitations today! "The deacon spoke concisely and answered all Li Jizhou's questions in a few words.

"Fellow Daoist, you've worked hard!" Li Jizhou took the invitation and handed over a middle-level low-grade talisman.

"Li Keqing is polite." The deacon took over the talisman, and his face became more joyful.

Then he took a step forward and reminded in a low voice: "Keqing Li must have been too focused on crafting talismans, or perhaps the fellow daoists of the previous sub-cabines did not inform some rules. Under normal circumstances, third-class Keqings need to report to the local sub-cabins first when they settle in a place with a sub-cabin.

When Li Jizhou heard this, he was calm on the surface, but he knew it in his heart.

"Thank you for your suggestion!"

He really doesn't know this rule.

It should be that Lu Zhenhua didn't expect Li Jizhou to leave Daoxuan Mountain when he was in Daoxuan Mountain before, so he didn't have time to say it.

Seeing the ambiguous situation reminded by the deacon, the treasurer Qi in this sub-chamber may be a little unhappy.

Smiling and shaking his head, Li Jizhou didn't care too much.

He didn't care about the coveted guest status in the eyes of others.

After all, it will be Dan Dao who will earn Lingshi in the future.

The farewell deacon Li Jizhou once again felt the pill fire in the palm of his hand.

"Barely reached the level of low-grade pill fire!"

"With my alchemy skills, precise control of temperature, time, and ratio, even if I only have low-grade pill fire, it should not be a problem to refine first-order primary high-quality pills!"

Pills and talismans are somewhat different.

Low-level talisman seals, like the first-level primary talisman seals drawn by Li Jizhou, no matter how high the quality is, their power and effects are limited by the same level, and the value is low, so they can't earn any spirit stones.

But pills are different.

The role of talismans lies in their power.

And the role of the elixir is to assist in cultivation.

In the early stage of Qi training, this kind of low-level monks will always be the group with the largest base, accounting for [-]% of the entire practice world.

They use talismans, which can barely stimulate intermediate-level talismans, so there is not much demand for first-level elementary talismans. In addition, in the early stage of Qi training, most monks still focus on increasing their cultivation, and there is very little demand for talismans that cannot increase their cultivation.

And pills are what they desire most.

When you are at the lowest level, you all hope to get over the stage where everyone is called senior as soon as possible.

In addition, there has been a saying in the practice world: Immortal roads are expensive!
The sooner you break through the big realm, the farther you can go.

If the foundation is established before the age of 30, the Nascent Soul can be expected.

Before the age of 50, the foundation is established, and the formation of alchemy is expected.

The foundation is established at the age of 70, and the immortal way ends here.

Therefore, young people who are new to Qi training all wish to take drugs every day to help their practice.

Some primary pills, such as Condensing Qi Pill, Buqi Pill, Huaxue Pill, etc., which can increase the speed of practice, are very expensive, more than ten times more expensive than the same level of talismans.

This is still referring to those of middle-grade quality, with slight erysipelas, and certain drug resistance, it takes a certain amount of time to digest after taking one pill.

If it is top-grade, or even fine-quality, top-grade pills that do not contain erysipelas and have little drug resistance, the price will be more than a hundred times higher.

"The pill fire is barely enough, it's the pill furnace!"

The alchemy stove that Yaoshi Zheng borrowed before could only be regarded as a medicine stove. It was good for brewing medicinal materials, but it was not good for real alchemy.

The alchemy furnace has a great influence on the quality of the alchemy.

Especially if you want to refine high-quality pills, the pill furnace must be very high-quality.

Another point is medicinal materials,
Due to the high demand and high profit of pills, the price of medicinal materials is also very high. This is one of the reasons why Li Jizhou didn't choose pills in the first place when he was in Daoxuanshan.

But these are not problems now.

Although medicinal materials are expensive, there is still room for profit after all.

And he was able to refine high-grade and above pills, and he could also guarantee a certain rate of pills, so the profits would only be higher.
