Mortal Ascension Record

Chapter 1966: Sky-high Cave Residence, Privileged Qualification

However, how can something that has been decided be affected by external forces?

Even if other factors are not mentioned, just because this demon girl has impure motives and has coveted Qin's Yuanyang for a long time, he must not let her get what she wants!

Therefore, Qin Tian smiled and could only pretend to be sarcastic:

"Haha, you demon girl are really interesting. Have you ever seen a down-and-out alchemist along the way? Besides, I am used to being lazy and never like to be bound by the rules and regulations of the sect. I am afraid that I will disappoint you!"

"See you again in the future, goodbye!"

After saying this, Qin Tian did not stay any longer and turned directly to the opposite direction. His back looked very free and easy, and there was an unquestionable firmness and determination.

Seeing this situation, Avril, who was already arrogant, was immediately angry and her pretty face turned red, and her silver teeth almost broke on the spot.

As the queen of elves, she was always admired wherever she went. When had she ever suffered such grievance? It was rare for her to lower her face and take the initiative, but she was still despised by others. This was simply a great shame!

Finally, watching Qin Tian disappear in the street, Avril could only stamp her jade feet fiercely and said cruel words full of indignation:

"Hmph! Shameless little thief, what are you proud of? Just wait and see. If you ignore me today, I will make you unable to reach me in the future...!"

After that, she no longer hesitated and turned to walk towards the direction of the teleportation hall. However, her back figure seemed to be cool, but in fact, there was a hint of resentment.

Since then, the two have parted ways.

It is also a long way to meet again.

...............

At the same time, Qin Tian strolled along the way after parting. After getting a brief understanding of the prices in the Holy City, he did not delay any further, but went straight to the West City area marked on the map.

The reason for this is that the recruitment of alchemists in Yuding Mountain will not start for nearly half a year, so the most urgent task is to find a place to stay, and by the way, take advantage of this time to search for the spiritual materials needed in the Holy City to see if the strength can be further improved.

And with the prosperity of the Holy City, Qin Tian still has great hope for collecting the remaining monster skins and the spiritual materials of ice and wind attributes.

However, it is not an easy task to find a suitable cave for cultivation in this Burning Heaven Holy City where every inch of land is valuable, which can be seen from the high entrance fee.

.............

As he kept running all the way, relying on the swiftness of his body, Qin Tian soon arrived at the West City area, but what he saw made him gasp and almost stunned on the spot.

Because in the West City area, in addition to the crisscrossing streets, there is actually a majestic and beautiful giant peak with rugged rocks standing deep in the depths. Although the giant peak is not very high, it is only about a few thousand feet, but it is surrounded by clouds and mist, and is full of vitality. Obviously, there is an excellent vein buried underneath, which is a complete paradise!

In such a prosperous and lively holy city, there is actually a whole giant peak. How can this not be shocking?

At least in the lower world, although those capital cities are also quite good, Qin has never seen any force so generous that it actually moved the entire isolated peak into the city!

Just think about it, with the high land prices in the holy city, how exaggerated the losses caused will be!

But soon, Qin Tian discovered the clues.

Because even from a long distance, you can see that there are many caves for cultivation on the giant peak, and they are arranged in order from top to bottom. The closer the cave is to the top of the peak, the richer the heaven and earth vitality is. On the contrary, although the caves at the foot of the mountain have the largest number, the heaven and earth vitality is the thinnest.

Obviously, this eye-catching giant peak is the place where the Holy City rents caves. It is directly managed by the City Lord's Mansion. It can also be understood as a "high-end inn". Its grade and environmental facilities are quite complete, which is absolutely not comparable to ordinary inns.

Indeed, with Qin Tian's vision, since he is looking for a cave for cultivation, ordinary places are naturally difficult to catch his eye.

According to his original idea, no matter how mysterious this rental cave is, it is just a high-end inn. If you like it, you can just buy it. But who can expect that this rumored high-end inn will actually be a towering giant peak?

Judging from the current situation, since the City Lord's Mansion has made such a big show, it will definitely not make a loss-making deal. Therefore, the price of this cave must be extremely high. With Qin's current wealth, let alone buying it, it is estimated that whether he can afford to rent it is still a matter of time!

After realizing this, Qin Tian couldn't help but feel worried. He felt that it was really difficult to move forward in the spiritual world without sufficient financial resources.

But as the saying goes, you should make the best of it.

With the concentration of vitality on the giant peak, even the low-level caves at the foot of the mountain are more than twice as strong as other areas in the outer city. It is the best place to practice, so Qin Tian is naturally unwilling to give up easily.

So after hesitating for a moment, he finally walked slowly towards the direction of the giant peak. After a while, he came to the foot of the mountain, in front of a pavilion with simple decorations.

I saw that the attic covered a large area and looked imposing and majestic. There was a red sandalwood plaque hung above the door beam, with three large gold-plated characters "Rental Hall" inscribed on it. However, there were not many monks gathered in the open door, and it could only be described as deserted.

The extremely deserted scene was in sharp contrast to other areas in the city.

Seeing this scene, Qin Tian became more and more sure of his guess.

After getting inside, I found that although the spacious attic was richly decorated, there were only two monks in the Divine Transformation stage, sitting behind the desk drinking tea and chatting, looking as if they were doing nothing and lazily.

Moreover, the two monks, an old one and a young one, were all in the middle stage of divine transformation. They were wearing uniform robes and had unique red flame-like logos tattooed on their cuffs. They must be the deacons of the city lord's palace, who were specially trained to be monks. Sent to take charge of leasing matters here!

Maybe they noticed the movement, and the two of them couldn't help but raise their heads slightly. Their faces were obviously stunned for a moment. When they found out that he was just a monk in the early stage of becoming a god, a look of contempt quietly passed through their eyes, but soon they returned. Back to business as usual.

With Qin Tian's keen insight, this subtle change in expression was naturally undetectable, but he knew it well and did not show any abnormality. Instead, he politely raised his hand and greeted:

"I'm here for the first time, and I met two Taoist friends. I heard that there is a cave for rent here, so I came here to chat with you!"

After hearing this, the old man did not say a word, but still drank the spiritual tea carefully, looking arrogant and turning a blind eye.

Only the young monk stood up and returned the salute, saying coldly but politely:

"Fellow Taoist, there is no need to be polite. There is indeed a cave for rent here, but "Juyuan Mountain" is the place with the most vitality in the entire Holy City except the City Lord's Mansion. The rent is naturally very high, but not everyone can rent it. Get up...!"

At this point, the young man stopped talking, but the meaning was already quite obvious, and the contempt in his eyes was enough to explain everything.

After all, according to common sense, the high rent of "Juyuan Mountain" is simply beyond what ordinary gods can afford.

Not to mention anything else, the two brothers had worked in the city lord's mansion for many years and were full-time internal staff. It was only after a lot of effort and lots of flattery that they managed to get the two lowest-level cave mansions.

Just this is enough to make others envious.

But now a little-known boy, whose cultivation is only in the early stage of becoming a god, is brazenly talking about wanting to rent a cave. Isn't this a self-inflicted insult?

Because of this, the two of them were naturally extremely contemptuous in their hearts. They had long regarded Qin Tian as a stupid young man who came from nowhere. Such people are not uncommon in Burning Heaven Holy City. Similar things have happened many times. In the end, The result is nothing more than leaving in despair.

Seeing this situation, Qin Tian did not have an attack.

He has experienced similar things many times, and naturally there will be no disturbance in his state of mind, so he quickly asked:

"Oh~! I dare to ask this fellow Taoist, how much is the rent for a bridal chamber here? I hope you can give me some advice...!"

Seeing Qin Tian's firm attitude, the young man suddenly became more contemptuous. He immediately raised two fingers and said with a half-smile:

"The rental price is not expensive. The cave at the foot of the mountain costs at least twenty low-grade Yuan stones per month. If it goes up, it will be even more expensive. Are you sure you want to rent it, fellow Taoist?"

As soon as these words came out, even though Qin Tian had been prepared, he was still shocked!

Before that, although he had thought that given the situation in the Holy City, the rent here would not be too cheap, but he never expected that it would be so exaggerated!

After all, according to common sense, the entire wealth of a monk in the early stage of becoming a god is only a few dozen low-grade Yuan stones. This is still counting the spiritual treasures and many other goods. Even in the middle stage of becoming a god, it is not much better. .

In other words, just for the lowest level cave in Juyuan Mountain, one month's rent would consume half of the net worth of a monk in the early stage of spiritual transformation. How could this not be shocking?

I wonder who can afford such a high price?

I'm afraid I don't have the courage in the later stages of becoming a god, right?

This is no longer leasing, it’s completely a steal!

Being able to come up with such a way to make money shows that in addition to alchemy masters, there are probably also many evil profiteers in Jade Cauldron Mountain!

No wonder the underground black market is prevalent in the Burning Sky Territory.

With such an upper sect, why worry about the lower sect not being in chaos?

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

It's just that Burning Heaven Holy City is located in the Ancient Soul Burying Desert. It would be extremely risky to go out of the city to find a suitable cave. He didn't want to experience the terrible polar storm and the threat of countless poisonous monsters again. Even if he left the Soul Burying Ancient Desert, he would find another place. Elsewhere, the time consumption will definitely not be short, and it may also affect the subsequent recruitment of alchemists.

Moreover, it has just been a breakthrough. If you want to stabilize your cultivation and improve quickly, the richer the energy of the cave world and the earth, the better.

The most important thing is that once this trip is successfully integrated into Yuding Mountain, where will there be any need to worry about resources in the future?

A mere primeval stone is just a number!

With this in mind, Qin Tian secretly gritted his teeth, raised his hand without hesitation, took out a hundred low-grade Yuan stones, and placed them neatly on the table:

"Okay! I'll rent it for five months first. It's convenient for this fellow Taoist to do it...!"

As soon as these words came out, the atmosphere in the venue suddenly became silent!

Seeing Qin Tian's generosity, not only the young monk froze on the spot, but also the old man who had always been silent couldn't help but cast a surprised look. It was obvious that he had never expected that this initially humble cultivator, The net worth is so rich!

But soon, the old man reacted and quickly gave the young man a wink. The latter immediately understood. Although his attitude improved a lot, he still said with a joking smile:

"Haha~! Wait a minute, fellow Taoist. It's my fault that I didn't explain it clearly below. In fact, the rent is secondary. It should be noted that Juyuan Mountain Cave Mansion is a scarce resource, and not everyone is qualified to enjoy it. If you can't meet the conditions, Even if you have strong financial resources, it is in vain..."

Hearing this, Qin Tian couldn't help but frown slightly.

"Oh~! What's the mystery in this, fellow Taoist, can you tell me clearly?"

The young man didn't show off when he saw this, and immediately said with a smile but not a smile:

"To be honest, according to the rules set by the City Lord's Mansion, only those who have a cultivation level above the Void Refining Stage are eligible to rent this Juyuan Mountain Cave Mansion. In addition, alchemists who have reached level 5 or above can also obtain a lease. Qualifications, and you can also enjoy a 20% discount, which is considered a special treatment for alchemists!”

Hearing this, Qin Tian understood in his heart.

I dare say that the original intention of establishing the Juyuan Mountain Cave Mansion was not to accommodate the cultivators of the Transformation of Gods. It was specially set up for masters at the Void Refining stage and above, and also provided privileges for alchemists.

After all, Burning Heaven Holy City is the Holy Land of Alchemy, and it is reasonable for alchemists to enjoy many privileges here.

In this way, it can also attract more elites and alchemists to gather, which invisibly strengthens the strength of the Holy City and stabilizes the reputation of the Holy Land. It is really a good business with huge profits.

It is understandable why this place seems so deserted. Although there are many monks in the entire holy city, the number of fifth-grade alchemists and monks in the Void Refining Stage is still very limited, so those who are qualified to rent the cave are naturally Not too much.

After thinking about everything, Qin Tian also started to think about it.

After all, the alchemist can not only enjoy privileges, but also enjoy price discounts. This advantage cannot be taken advantage of.

So he flicked his sleeves and showed off his cards on the spot:

"Oh~? This is a coincidence. To be honest, I am a fifth-level alchemist!"

Sure enough, as soon as these words came out, the atmosphere in the venue became quiet again.

The old man put down the tea cup he had just picked up, but his expression gradually became colder, as if he was a little impatient.

As for the young man, it was even more obvious, and he immediately joked unabashedly:

"Your Excellency, are you joking? If Taoist friend is really a fifth-level alchemy master, can I show you the certificate of command talisman?"
