Mortal Ascension Record

Chapter 1940 A chance encounter with Baolou, the mysterious shopkeeper

On the surface, the items sold in this shop are quite mixed. In addition to all kinds of elixirs, there are also many monster furs, spiritual materials, and talismans. However, since the grades are not high, it seems that the business is not very good. , there were only two maids in blue who were feebly soliciting business, as if they had nothing to offer.

The reason why Qin Tian chose this place for trading is also very simple. Just above the door beam of the shop, there is a slightly tacky gold-lettered signboard with three ancient seal characters "Jubaolou" written in flying phoenixes. .

Although he knew it was a coincidence, Qin Tian couldn't help but feel a trace of trance when he looked at the familiar sign. The scene of meeting the beautiful woman at the beginning was still vivid in his mind, but now he had to endure the pain of being separated by two worlds!

I wonder if the beauty is okay?

Shaking his head and sighing, Qin Tian quickly calmed down the distracting thoughts in his heart and stepped straight into the shop.

Upon entering, the seemingly simple shop is actually unique inside. Not only are there many rosewood shelves, but also many glazed display cabinets, which display various treasures and a large number of exquisite jade bottles. It seems to be a dazzling array, but the level of treasures is not too high, almost all are used by some Nascent Soul monks, and even the fifth level spiritual materials are pitiful.

No wonder there is no business. With these ordinary things, it is not easy to attract customers.

For a moment, Qin Tian couldn't help but sigh secretly.

In his opinion, who once dominated the business world, this was simply poor management, which ruined this golden brand.

At the same time, as soon as customers came to the door, a delicate-looking maid in Tsing Yi came quickly and said with a warm tone:

"I have met this senior. May I ask what you want to buy? Our store has just opened, and the price is negotiable...!"

Judging from the lively look in this woman's eyes, her cultivation level is around the late stage of Jindan, and she doesn't look too old.

If such qualifications were placed in the lower world, they would at least be considered geniuses. It is a pity that in this spiritual world where strong people emerge in large numbers, they can only struggle at the bottom.

But overall, this woman has a warm and smart attitude, which makes her feel like a spring breeze.

For a moment, Qin Tian couldn't help but sigh secretly, but he still bluntly stated his purpose, and slightly adjusted his voice to become hoarse and old:

"To be honest, I am here to sell a batch of supplies. I also plan to purchase some special spiritual materials. Let's see if the price offered by your store is fair...!"

As he spoke, Qin Tian did not forget to slightly relax his restraints, showing off a hint of state coercion at the right time.

The maidservant in green's eyes lit up when she heard this, and when she noticed the unique pressure of the soul in the transformation stage, she immediately knew that a big customer was here, and even her attitude became more respectful and enthusiastic.

"It turns out that it's Senior Huashen who is in person. Please forgive me if I'm rude. The manager of our store will be here soon. Could you please senior to move to the private room and wait for a while...!"

Having said that, the maid in blue hurriedly greeted Qin Tian into the inner hall, and then offered the fragrant tea spirit fruit, and then bowed and left, obviously to inform the so-called shopkeeper to come.

After all, most of these maids do not have high permissions. Once they encounter a large transaction, they must ask the boss behind the scenes to make the decision. This is the common practice in various places.

As for the Jubao Building, which had just opened its doors and had a bleak business, the Huashen monks could indeed be called "major patrons." It was no wonder that the maid in green was so enthusiastic.

It's just that this so-called elegant room is actually just a closed stone room, but it is beautifully carved, polished, and decorated with spiritual flowers, so it doesn't look shabby at all.

In line with the mentality of taking things as they come, Qin Tian simply sat down on the Taishi chair, then seriously picked up the spirit tea on the table and began to pretend to sip and taste it. The process was like a cow chewing peonies, so there is no need to mention it.

Fortunately, not long after, there were slight footsteps outside the door, and then the door of the stone chamber slowly opened, and a woman in a plain robe entered, accompanied by a refreshing fragrance.

Seeing this scene, Qin Tian couldn't help but be slightly startled.

After all, he didn't expect that the development of events would be so similar. Not only did the first shop he entered when he first arrived in the spirit world have the same name as his old friend's shop, but even the shopkeeper happened to be a female cultivator. This was really a coincidence. Couldn't be more coincidental.

For a moment, even with Qin Tian's character, he couldn't help but be filled with surprise.

Although the female cultivator is wearing a plain robe, she can't hide her graceful and exquisite figure. She also has a waterfall of green silk hanging freely, which makes her look elegant and calm. However, her appearance is covered by a silver mask, which makes her look elegant and calm. It is difficult for people to see the true face of Mount Lu.

And judging from the vague aura and pressure, his cultivation has reached the peak of the late stage of divine transformation, which is considered to be quite powerful in the underground black market.

But the most surprising thing is yet to come.

Just based on the strange fragrance that spread, Qin Tian quickly recognized that the sachet used by this woman must be very good. It obviously contained a variety of special elixirs, which had the magical effect of calming the mind, calming the mind, and stabilizing the cultivation. , unless someone is proficient in pharmacology, it would be impossible to have such a clever method.

In other words, this mysterious woman is not only powerful, she is also an accomplished alchemist!

It is simply unimaginable that such a monster could be hiding in a border city in the Burning Sky Territory. It seems that this spiritual world is really full of people and cannot be treated by common sense.

Thinking of this, Qin Tian couldn't help but sigh secretly, and then he quickly stood up politely, not daring to do anything to support him.

"I didn't expect that there is an expert hiding in this treasure building. I'm so polite!"

At the same time, the eyes of the female cultivator opposite her mask were also quietly sizing up Qin Tian. However, due to the concealment of the Lingbao bamboo hat and the secret technique, she also could not see many clues. She only vaguely noticed that Probably just cultivation level

Naturally, someone who can open a shop in the underground black market is not an ordinary person. Therefore, this mysterious woman is very sensible and did not rush to detect it with her spiritual sense. Instead, she smiled and said politely:

"Haha~! This fellow Taoist doesn't need to be polite. His humble residence is a bit shabby. I hope this distinguished guest won't find it objectionable. Please come and take a seat...!"

As she spoke, the woman seemed quite enthusiastic. She did not look down upon him because of the difference in cultivation. Instead, she took the initiative to greet Qin Tian to sit down and re-made the fragrant tea herself, showing her good professionalism.

Its voice is gentle and sweet, like orchids in an empty valley, with silk warblers singing. It has a sense of tranquility, making people feel peaceful without even realizing it.

Qin Tian was polite for a moment and then took his seat again, being humble and polite but neither humble nor overbearing.

After all, it's not like he hasn't killed anyone in the late stages of becoming a god. Even though it was just a fantasy beast and wolf, and it still took advantage of the magical restraint, but even if he really faced a late stage monk, he was confident that he wouldn't be able to defeat it, but he could still come and go with ease.

So when facing this mysterious female cultivator, he was naturally able to remain calm and calm.

However, after getting closer, the strange fragrance became more and more intense, but Qin Tian was still keenly aware of the fragrance of the elixir remaining on the other party's body, which undoubtedly further confirmed his suspicion.

At this moment, he was certain that this mysterious woman must be an alchemist, and her attainments in alchemy were definitely not low, at least at level five or above.

At the same time, the shopkeeper also saw Qin Tian's performance, and he immediately thought highly of it. After a few polite words to ease the atmosphere, he asked directly:

"What kind of treasures do you want to sell when you come to our store this time? You might as well show it to me first so that you can evaluate a satisfactory price for me!"

According to the rules of the black market, no one is asked about their name or origin.

So this mysterious woman is quite particular.

Qin Tian nodded secretly when he heard this, and quickly agreed:

"In this case, the poor Taoist has made a fool of himself and asked the shopkeeper to take a look...!"

Having said that, he directly raised his hand and swayed a large amount of spiritual light, which contained more than ten exquisite jade boxes, many phantom beast skins and bones, and dozens of crystal clear phantom crystals, which fell neatly on the floor of the stone chamber. .

Therefore, the grades of these phantom crystals and monster furs are not too high. Almost all of them are below the fifth grade. They were obtained by Qin Tian during his escape journey.

However, because the level of the phantom crystals was too low, he was too lazy to absorb and refine them, so he accidentally accumulated them to such a scale. This time, he just happened to sell them in exchange for primeval stones.

And after those jade boxes were opened, the contents inside were also revealed. They were all elixirs of the fifth level and below, and they were not very old.

Generally speaking, the quantity of this batch of goods is sufficient, but the quality is really worrying. Almost all of them are items that are only used by Yuanying stage monks. I am afraid that there are only dozens of magic crystals. With their unique illusion effects, they can also He could barely get into the eyes of the cultivator.

Obviously, for the sake of safety, Qin Tian, ​​who was always cautious, decided to test it out for the time being before conducting a real transaction.

Sure enough, the mysterious female shopkeeper couldn't help but frown slightly when she raised her eyes, and a hint of disappointment quietly passed through her eyes.

I thought that after being open for a long time, I finally got a big customer, but I didn't expect that a poor and humble monk in the early stage of spiritual transformation actually sold fourth-level spiritual materials. Isn't this too shabby?

But then I thought about it. The other party's cultivation level was only in the early stage, but he dared to venture into the Phantom Forest. He was able to obtain so many spiritual materials, and even escaped unscathed. This was considered commendable.

Thinking of this, the mysterious female cultivator couldn't help but sigh secretly, but she remained calm on the surface, still maintaining her polite attitude, but her enthusiasm had somewhat subsided.

After about a moment, she quickly spoke in a deep voice and gave a relatively fair evaluation price:

"To be honest, originally according to the market conditions, the fourth-order magic crystals and spiritual materials could only be settled with top-quality spiritual stones due to their limited value. However, although these fourth-order elixirs from Taoist friends are not of high age, they are superior in category. The medicinal and medicinal properties are intact, but it can be settled with low-grade Yuan Stone..."

"Let's see, Taoist fellows are also generous people. Not long after our store opened, the little girl stopped worrying about the exchange rate. The total price of these goods is thirty-five yuan of low-grade yuan stones. I don't know what your friendship is... ...?"

As she spoke, the sleeves of the plain-robed woman were gently brushed, and dozens of low-grade Yuan stones appeared on the desk, neatly stacked together. She was obviously extremely confident in the price she offered.

Seeing this situation, Qin Tian thought for a while and secretly thought that the price was indeed in line with the market, and even slightly exceeded it. He suddenly felt confident and immediately put away all the Yuan Stones with a flick of his sleeves.

"In that case, I would like to thank the shopkeeper for his kindness. It seems that Jubaolou is really honest and trustworthy...!"

"Haha, fellow Taoist, you are too kind. I am also a newbie here. In the future, I will need your care. Even if you can give me a few points of profit, it will be good for me."

The woman in plain robe also smiled in response, and then took away the spiritual materials and medicines on the ground. Both parties were cleared of money and goods.

However, after the transaction was completed, Qin Tian did not intend to get up and leave. Instead, he calmly picked up the spiritual tea and sipped it.

The female cultivator opposite was slightly stunned when she saw this, but she quickly reacted and asked politely:

"Does fellow Taoist have any more goods to sell?"

Hearing this, Qin Tian smiled with a hidden meaning:

"Yes, I do, but I don't know if the shopkeeper can afford it.........!"

As soon as this was said, the female cultivator immediately became interested, but she felt a little disdainful in her heart, and even her original good impression disappeared.

After all, in her opinion, what good things can a mere initial stage of transformation of the spirit bring?

But this old Taoist obviously has limited strength, but he still pretends to be profound and boastful, which makes me treat him sincerely and politely just now. This is really a bit ungrateful.

With this in mind, the attitude of the woman in plain robe finally changed, and even her tone was a little cold, with a hint of pride:

"Haha~! Daoist, you are joking. Since our Jubaolou dares to operate here, there is definitely no goods that we cannot take. If Daoist, you are sincere and want to sell, you may as well take it out directly. Our store will definitely not let you down...........!"

"Okay, the shopkeeper's words are enough! This is what I want to resell, please take a look!"

Hearing this, Qin Tian did not hesitate, and directly raised his hand and waved it. A large area of ​​​​brilliance suddenly lit up in the field, directly illuminating the dim secret room.

This time, there was no phantom crystal among the treasures taken out, because Qin Tian would keep the phantom crystals that reached the fifth level for his own use to enhance the power of the spiritual eye secret technique.

But within that brilliance, there were a large number of fifth-order fantasy beast skins, claws and fangs, which almost piled up into a small hill on the ground. Some of them had even reached the late fifth-order level, which was comparable to the demon beast spirit materials in the late stage of the Divine Transformation.
