Mortal: Fengling Linggen, married Chen Qiaoqian

"That makes sense. Then, let's not discuss this person for now."

"We brothers have been entrusted by Madam Fang to look after your convoy."

"Now that the goods have arrived safely, we have fulfilled our promise. Now, we should say goodbye."

Nanqizi bowed slightly and expressed his farewell in a calm tone.

"It turns out that the Taoist priests have no intention of seeing my wife again..."

"If that's the case, please forgive me for not seeing you off!"

Zhang Kui was not surprised. After trying to keep him in vain, he politely said goodbye.

In this way, these monks from Kuaishou Mountain gradually walked away until they disappeared from people's sight.

"It's a pity. Wouldn't it be great if our company could have its own team of monks?"

A knight standing nearby couldn't help but sigh after seeing several Taoists walking away.

"The idea of ​​hiring monks myself is probably just a daydream."

"Although our Tiandong Company is known as one of the three major companies in Tianyuan Realm, the spiritual stones we earn every year are only enough to maintain the needs of hiring monks for a long time."

"The strength of low-level cultivators in the Qi Refining Stage is not much different from that of us Body Refiners. There is not much point in hiring them."

"The amount of spiritual stones that a Foundation Establishment cultivator needs to consume in a year is extremely staggering. Our company can only make an exception and hire him once when we encounter a major transaction."

“As for cultivators at the Jindan stage and above, it is an unattainable dream.”

"High-level cultivators can easily obtain rare materials anywhere, or refine various magical instruments and spiritual tools, which are far more valuable than the spiritual stones provided by our company."

"Even if our company does its best to train mid-level monks, they will still choose to leave."

The burly man showed a look of regret.

"That's true. Even the best among us body cultivators will fail once they achieve some success in their training."

"They will immediately go to dangerous places outside the country and search for spiritual medicines that can produce spiritual roots out of thin air."

"The desire to become a monk. Because once you succeed, you will embark on the path of cultivation."

"Not only can you practice powerful magic, but you can also enjoy a long life. This is undoubtedly an irresistible temptation."

"Therefore, the number of body cultivators who have died outside the three realms in the past years is incalculable."

"However, there is still an endless stream of people heading abroad."

The man who came on horseback also showed a hint of emotion.

"That's enough. These things are not important to us ordinary people."

"Now, we should return to the mansion as soon as possible to report to Madam."

Zhang Kui waved his hand, indicating that he would not pursue the matter any further.

The man on horseback immediately stopped talking.

So, a group of people moved forward and quickly merged into the bustling crowd.

At this time, Yan Yun was standing on a nearby street, looking up at the seven dazzling suns in the sky, and let out a long breath with a depressed look on his face.

Ever since he stepped out of the Qingluo Desert and into the vast grassland, he immediately felt the amazing spiritual energy in the air.

The concentration of spiritual energy here is undoubtedly far greater than that of the human world. If we can find a more superior place for cultivation, perhaps the concentration of spiritual energy can be increased to more than ten times the current level.

Unfortunately, he had now lost his Nascent Soul, and there were still restrictions left in his body by the Ice Phoenix, so he was unable to absorb the spiritual energy at all.

This undoubtedly made him feel quite helpless.

He strolled along the street, observing the people coming and going and the various shops on both sides.

These shops are no different from those in the human world, and there are no particularly strange items.

Suddenly, he stopped and fixed his eyes on the shop in front of him. After a moment's hesitation, he stepped in.

Then he looked around and carefully examined the merchandise on display in the store.

The shop was small, with only two employees serving customers, but there were many customers who came to buy goods. These people were all ordinary people.

The reason why Yan Yun walked into this shop was that although it looked ordinary from the outside, its business was extremely prosperous, which aroused his curiosity.

"Dear guest, are you interested in any product? What do you think of this gold-backed nine-ring knife?"

"This knife is carefully forged from black iron. It can easily cut through steel and has a moderate weight. It is the best weapon to fight against wolves."

After just finishing introducing another customer, the waiter finally noticed Yan Yun's presence and hurriedly walked forward with a smile on his face.

What he was talking about was the large ring knife that Yan Yun was admiring at the moment. It was completely black and one could tell at a glance that it was extremely heavy.

"Please forgive me for not having much strength. I cannot wield such a heavy weapon."

Yan Yun withdrew his gaze and shook his head calmly.

"Then would you like to consider this Crescent Moon Sword? This sword is carefully crafted from copper. It is extremely light and tough, and can be called an excellent soft sword."

"It's not long enough and not suitable for me." Yan Yun glanced at it indifferently, obviously not interested in it.

"Not long enough?" The guy's face, which had always been smiling, froze, and he seemed to have no idea how to deal with the situation.

"What is that item? It seems quite interesting." Yan Yun suddenly took a few steps, pointed to something on another table, and asked slowly.

What he pointed at was a bunch of tangled black soft ropes, about the size of a thumb in diameter.

"This is the Qionglong Rope, made of gold wire, and is used exclusively for binding. Even if a powerful low-level monster is bound by this rope, it will be difficult to break free."

The guy was stunned for a moment when he saw the item, and then began to explain it in detail.

"Qionglong rope, let me take a look."

Yan Yun picked up the thing without hesitation and shook it gently.

After a "whoosh" sound, the black rope instantly became as straight as an arrow, like a thin stick with clear lines and sharp corners.

The guy who witnessed the scene had his eyes wide open.

He had received countless customers in this weapons shop, so he naturally had a good understanding of the performance of various weapons.

Anyone who can easily control such a soft rope to such a degree is definitely not an ordinary person. Most of them are physical cultivators, and a look of awe can't help but appear on their faces.

"This is an excellent piece. However, it is still too thick. Do you have a similar piece that is more refined?"

Yan Yun waved it gently a few times and asked with a frown still on his face.

"I'm afraid our store cannot provide more sophisticated ones for the time being."

The guy muttered something under his breath and answered with an embarrassed look on his face.

"I see. Do you need something more sophisticated? But before that, you might as well take a look at this item first, because its price may be relatively high."

A rough voice suddenly came from behind Yan Yun. Yan Yun's face changed and he turned around silently.

Behind him, there were two burly men standing.

One of them was tall and mighty, with long hair, giving off a strong sense of wildness; the other had a sallow complexion and looked a little thin.

Both men were wearing leather jackets. The man with disheveled hair carried a long silver spear on his back and a huge bag on his shoulder.

The thin man was holding a several-foot-long wooden box in one hand, with a gloomy expression.

What caught Yan Yun's eyes was that each of them wore a ring inlaid with a spirit stone on the finger of one of their hands.

Although this gem is obviously smaller than the one Zhang Kui is wearing, it is clearly a spiritual tool of the same type.

"Spiritual Tool" "Physical Training"

These words flashed through Yan Yun's mind quickly, and in the blink of an eye he recognized the identities of the two people. The corners of his mouth slightly raised, and he smiled and said:

"As long as the items meet the requirements, the price will not be a problem."

"That's good, but this is not the place to talk. Could you please come with us to a secluded place to discuss in detail?" The thin man looked at Yan Yun carefully and suggested with a smile.

"Of course!" Yan Yun nodded without hesitation.

So he followed the two men out of the weapons shop and returned to the street.

The two men seemed to be very familiar with the surrounding environment. They led Yan Yun through the bustling and noisy streets and finally walked into a little-known alley.

There are few people here and it is quiet.

"Right here. Brother Xin, please show the item to your companion in front of you."

As soon as they arrived at their destination, the thin man turned around and gave an order to the big man next to him.

"I understand, Brother Bao!"

The tall man responded quickly, taking the bag off his shoulder and then shaking it vigorously.

After a series of clinking sounds, various objects fell to the ground, some of which were bottles and jars, and some were animal skins and horns.

The thin man leaned over slightly and took out another palm-sized wooden box from his luggage.

"Please look, sir. This is the tendon of a giant dragon monster that my younger brother and several other cultivators captured together."

“It is not only light, strong and durable, but also has excellent elasticity, and its length can easily increase several times.”

"Earth dragon?"

Yan Yun knew nothing about this so-called Earth Dragon monster, but judging by its appearance, it should belong to a lower-level monster category.

He remained calm and took the wooden box handed to him by the other party with a calm demeanor, and then gently opened its lid.

When the box was opened, one could see a thin, cream-colored thread tightly wrapped around a red circle.

According to the man, this was the tendon of the earth dragon they captured.

Yan Yun did not hesitate at all. He gently pinched the red rope and broke it in an instant.

Immediately afterwards, with a "puff" sound, the animal tendons that were originally curled up suddenly bounced up and rushed towards Yan Yun's face.

Yan Yun blocked this sudden attack with just one hand. His movements seemed slow, but he grabbed one end of the animal tendon in an instant.

Then he moved his fingers slightly, and the originally hard animal tendons immediately became soft and weak, as if they had lost all their elasticity.

He took the two-meter-long animal tendon and examined it carefully.

Seeing Yan Yun's quick reaction, the skinny man opposite looked at the big man with untied hair next to him, and both of them showed surprise in their eyes.

At this time, Yan Yun had already carefully examined the tendons of the earth dragon.

Relying on the rich experience and unique vision he had accumulated from killing countless low-level monsters in the human world in the past.

He immediately understood the characteristics and uses of the animal tendon, as well as how to make appropriate improvements to better use it for himself.

After pondering for a while, Yan Yun finally decided to take action.

He swung the object gently, and the animal tendons began to dance, eventually wrapping around his wrist to form a light yellow bracelet.

With a wave of his arm and the drop of his long sleeves, the animal tendons were perfectly hidden inside, and people outside could not detect anything unusual.

"This is considered a precious material among low-level monsters. However, it is not very useful for cultivators. It is most suitable for use as a bowstring. The same is true for me."

"As long as the price you both offer is reasonable, I am willing to buy it."

Yan Yun looked at the two people opposite him and spoke in a calm tone.

"Haha, it seems that you are also a body cultivator. In this case, you will naturally have to pay with spirit stones."

"We want thirty spirit stones for the tendon of this earth dragon."

When the skinny man heard Yan Yun's words, a sly smile appeared on his face and he gave his own offer.

"Thirty Spiritual Stones? This price is indeed high, but it is not unaffordable. Please keep it, Excellency."

In the process of getting along with Liu'er and others, Yan Yun had already understood that although ordinary people in the spiritual world still used worldly things such as gold and silver as currency.

However, since the spiritual tools needed by body cultivators often consume a large amount of spirit stones, they, like monks, usually use spirit stones to exchange for special items.

However, in the spiritual world, the value of low-level spirit stones is far less than that in the human world.

Whether it is making spiritual tools or practicing as a cultivator, mid- to high-level spiritual stones are used in most cases.

After all, the concentration of spiritual energy here is far beyond that of the human world, even the top-grade spiritual stone veins.

Resources are not scarce here, but most of them are in the hands of high-level monks and large forces.

Even so, thirty low-level spirit stones are still quite expensive compared to the waste materials of a low-level monster.

Although Yan Yun abandoned all his storage bags and other treasures in the desert during that period.

But now that he was in the spiritual world, he knew the importance of spiritual stones and naturally would not forget to bring some with him in case of emergency.

In order to prevent any accidents, he deliberately left behind more than ten mid-level spirit stones for emergency use.

At this moment, he reached his hand into his arms and waved it lightly. A yellow spirit stone instantly flew out.

The man with loose hair quickly took a step forward and easily caught the spirit stone with his broad palm.

After a moment's inspection, he nodded with satisfaction.

Seeing this scene, a smile appeared on the pale yellow face of the man named Bao.

He took out a simple small bag from his body on the spot, selected seventy low-level spirit stones from it, then wrapped them up with a piece of animal skin at his feet, waved his hand and threw it to Yan Yun.

"These are for you, sir. You are so forthright. If there is a chance, we might as well work together." The thin man with a full beard said with a smile. (End of this chapter)
