7. Chapter 7 Bargaining (For Collection)
Chapter 7: Bargaining (Seeking Collection)
In the blink of an eye, three months had passed.
Li Guanxuan made his third attempt to break through to the mid-stage of Qi Refining, but the result was still not satisfactory.
There was no way around it. His aptitude was too poor, and coupled with physical reasons, the frequency of his diligent cultivation had to be reduced accordingly, resulting in a decrease in the amount of pure energy obtained compared to before.
In addition, Li Guanxuan felt that his talismanic skills could be improved, but now he was hindered by his cultivation level and unable to break through to the first-grade superior level.
"Today happens to be a good day to visit the Myriad Manifestations Pavilion in the East Street Market. I'll take a look and see if there are any suitable body cultivation techniques," Li Guanxuan thought to himself.
In the past half year, besides taking care of household chores, Wen Rongxin would also spend a lot of time practicing martial arts. Unfortunately, there were no martial arts manuals or body cultivation techniques available, so she could only stand and practice punches, using the most primitive method to train her body.
As for Li Guanxuan, being born into the Li family of Daheng, he was able to cultivate the Li family's Qi Refining technique, the "Azure Profound Technique," from a young age due to his Li family bloodline, so he didn't have any troubles with techniques.
With each cultivation of the "Azure Profound Technique," besides enhancing the Qingxuan Qi, it could also increase his lifespan by ten years, making it a small longevity technique.
Now, Li Guanxuan had already cultivated this technique to the third level, but he had yet to break through to the fourth level.
"Now I have 69 protective talismans, 11 frost talismans, 13 flame talismans, and 2 explosive spirit talismans. In terms of first-grade superior talismanic skills, I am already approaching perfection," Li Guanxuan checked his belongings. Besides his proficient talisman seals, he also had 17 first-grade inferior Returning Yuan Pills, which could be sold for at least seventeen inferior spirit stones.
"It's not easy to find a dual cultivation secret technique, but there shouldn't be a problem with body cultivation techniques. I'll also buy some ingredients to replenish my body..." Li Guanxuan sighed lightly in his heart. He was still too poor.
If he had a dual cultivation secret technique, Wen Rongxin would become Warm and Gentle.
Just as he was about to leave, Li Guanxuan ran into Shu Yao, who was holding the arm of a fourth-level Qi Refining male cultivator, looking very sweet together.
"Li Fellow Daoist, going out?" Shu Yao saw this and smiled, greeting him.
"Yes, just going out for a stroll," Li Guanxuan nodded slightly and looked at the male cultivator, asking with a smile, "And who might this be?"
The male cultivator saluted and introduced himself, "I am Bi Zhen, proficient in alchemy. I am currently at the first-grade superior level. Fellow Daoist, if you need any pills in the future, you can come find me."
"Definitely next time," Li Guanxuan nodded with a smile, then left.
Bi Zhen was taken aback. He was an alchemist, yet the other party didn't even chat with him for a few more words?
He was ready to sell off some low-quality pills...
Shu Yao explained on the side, "He is also an alchemist, and also a talisman master... However, his attainments in alchemy are not as high as yours. He is only at the first-grade inferior level."
"First-grade inferior level..." Bi Zhen suddenly realized and then felt relieved.
It was indeed difficult to find a first-grade superior alchemist in this slum area.
Since he couldn't sell the low-quality pills, he might as well sell some knowledge of alchemy.
A first-grade inferior alchemist would definitely want to break through to the first-grade superior level.
...
In Azure Serenity City's East Street Market, at the Myriad Manifestations Pavilion.
"Li Fellow Daoist, you've come at the right time. The prices of talismans have skyrocketed. Are you here to make a small fortune?" Although half a year had passed, the shopkeeper recognized Li Guanxuan at a glance and greeted him with a smile.
Li Guanxuan was taken aback and asked, "What happened?"
The rising price of talismans indicates that Azure Serenity City will not be too stable.
"What could happen, other than taking advantage of someone's illness and taking their life."
In the Myriad Manifestations Pavilion, the shopkeeper spoke frankly.
Li Guanxuan also understood that the Blood Hand Sect, the Absolute Kill Tower, the Green Thunder Sect, and the Fallen Moon Valley not only wanted to kill the Mountain of Joyful Bliss Ancestor, but also wanted to destroy the entire Mountain of Joyful Bliss.
Only in this way could they obtain a large amount of cultivation resources.
The disciples couldn't starve while the sect leaders and ancestors were well-fed, right?
The shopkeeper smiled and said, "In addition, there is also news coming from the Hundred Thousand Mountains. There are several thousand-year-old Thousand Gold Vines, which are the main ingredients for refining Foundation Building Pills and Nurturing Yuan Pills. Many cultivators have gathered together and plan to go in and seek this opportunity."
Li Guanxuan understood what the shopkeeper meant and smiled lightly, "As a humble cultivator with limited strength, I'd rather not get involved in this mess. I'll focus on drawing talismans and refining pills, living a peaceful life."
"Hahaha... From the moment I saw Fellow Daoist, I knew that you and I are kindred spirits."
"Since we are kindred spirits, how about giving me a more favorable price?"
"..."
The shopkeeper was suddenly speechless and helplessly said, "First, let me see the items."
Li Guanxuan took out all the talismans, leaving himself with one Exploding Spirit Talisman and two each of the Protection, Ice, and Fire Talismans.
When traveling, one must always keep life-saving talismans.
"The price for the Protection Talisman fluctuates around eleven or twelve low-grade spirit stones. I'll give you ten spirit stones each. As for the Ice and Fire Talismans, they are twelve spirit stones each. As for this Exploding Spirit Talisman, it is of good quality, so it's twenty spirit stones each... A total of nine hundred and thirty low-grade spirit stones."
After calculating the price, the shopkeeper smiled and said to Li Guanxuan, "This is quite fair."
Li Guanxuan nodded slightly and said, "I also have seventeen Returning Yuan Pills. Let's round it up. How about nine hundred and fifty spirit stones, fellow Daoist?"
"Is there anyone else who rounds up like you?" The shopkeeper widened his eyes and instinctively raised his voice.
Li Guanxuan chuckled, "I still have to spend it at your place, I'm not going to run away with the spirit stones..."
The shopkeeper sighed and said helplessly, "Alright, alright, tell me what else you need."
"One thousand sheets of first-grade talisman paper, one hundred bottles of cinnabar, three thousand catties of spirit rice, one thousand catties of spirit vegetables, and five hundred catties of spirit meat."
As soon as Li Guanxuan finished speaking, the shopkeeper gave the price, "A total of seven hundred low-grade spirit stones, and you still have two hundred and fifty left."
"Do you have any recommended martial arts for cultivating the martial body? And some supplements for the body's qi and blood."
Li Guanxuan no longer pretended, rubbing his waist while asking.
"Martial arts for cultivating the martial body? Those are low-grade martial arts. Even if you practice them, it's not guaranteed that you will succeed in Foundation Building." The shopkeeper reminded.
"Just recommend something."
Li Guanxuan couldn't care less. If he couldn't afford a good dual cultivation technique, then he would first cultivate his physique to prevent his waist from hurting.
"How about the Five-Six Dragon Transformation? It's the best martial arts for cultivating the body. If the resources are sufficient, there might be a chance for Foundation Building... The original price is sixty-seven spirit stones, but I'll give it to you for fifty."
After saying that, the shopkeeper flipped his hand and a martial arts manual appeared quietly.
Li Guanxuan took it and carefully examined it. This martial arts manual used the five viscera and six bowels to achieve the effect of transforming blood, allowing the qi and blood to undergo qualitative changes, making it easier to learn various martial arts secrets while continuously enhancing physical fitness, ultimately achieving the legendary indestructible body.
In the mortal world, this martial arts manual was indeed very powerful.
But in the eyes of cultivators, no matter how powerful this martial arts manual was, it was still just a martial arts manual for cultivating the body.
As long as one hadn't cultivated the indestructible body, Qi Refining stage cultivators could easily defeat them.
It was reasonable to pay fifty spirit stones for a martial arts manual that had a chance of Foundation Building, but... Li Guanxuan rubbed his hands and said, "Old brother, how about forty spirit stones?"
"Fifty! No bargaining!" The shopkeeper stared and shouted.
This guy, he really got addicted to bargaining, didn't he?
