Pagoda Immortality

There is a square in the center of Wushuang City, named Wushuang Square.

Unlike other open squares, Wushuang Square is surrounded by towering walls. There is an ancient stone gate more than ten feet wide in the four directions of the square, namely the southeast, northwest and northeast.

Usually, the stone gates on all four sides are closed, and they are only opened on the morning of the 15th day of each month, but they are closed again on the morning of the 16th day.

Almost all the monks who have lived in Wushuang City for a long time know that this is where the Wushuang Market is.

As for those secular mortals, they only know that many people rush into the square on the 15th day of each month. When some curious and brave mortals follow these people into the gate, they are mercilessly bounced out and their bones are broken.

Therefore, word of mouth spread that no secular mortals dared to follow these monks into the square. Even if they occasionally passed by the stone gate, they would stay away from it.

It was mid-January again. On this day, the stone gate opened as usual. A misty white mist appeared in the middle of the door frame. In the early morning, there were cultivators walking towards the white mist.

Outside the east gate of the square, Lu Li was also among the crowd. While walking, he secretly used the Sky Eye Technique to observe the cultivation of the crowd and found that most of them were cultivators in the Qi training stage, and there were very few people in the foundation building stage. He couldn't help but feel a little worried: I'm afraid it will be difficult to gain anything from this trip.

After a while, Lu Li followed the crowd into the square from the east gate.

When he looked up, he found that many people had come in, bustling around like a vegetable market, strolling around the stalls, and bargaining sounds were heard from time to time.

The stalls inside were messy but not messy. The stone platforms were neatly arranged in a circular shape. The stall owners also consciously placed the items they wanted to sell on the stone platforms in front of them, and did not place them randomly.

Lu Li stopped for a while and walked towards the stall on the right.

"Senior, this is the Green Flame Grass, which can grow to the third level. Take a look?" A thin and dark boy saw Lu Li suddenly staring at his stall, and quickly pointed to the three spiritual medicines in front of him that were emitting a faint green light and introduced them.

People passing by saw that Lu Li had a mysterious aura and thought he was probably a master. Seeing Lu Li stop, they came up curiously, but when they saw that it was just a green flame grass that was not even at the first level, they immediately lost interest.

It is true that the green flame grass can grow to the third level, but now it only has thirty spiritual patterns, not even at the first level. If there is no special method to ripen it, it will take 270 years of careful cultivation to become a third-level spiritual medicine, which is not something that ordinary people can afford.

The main reason why Lu Li stopped was that the roots of this spiritual medicine were well preserved. If it was transplanted to the medicine garden, it would definitely survive. If the price was not expensive, he would like to buy it.

Even if he couldn't use it, he could cultivate it to the third level and then sell it. Mature third-level spiritual medicines are too difficult to find. It would be a pity if he didn't use his own medicine garden.

At the same time, he made up his mind that when Chen Zhong and Xiao Ling succeeded in building their foundation, he would cultivate the spiritual medicines in the medicine garden to the third level before harvesting them, because the growth potential of the spiritual medicines in the garden was almost all at the third level, and even the tranquilizing flower had the potential of the fourth level. It would be a waste to harvest them at the first level.

Coming back to his senses, Lu Li asked, "How much?"

Seeing that Lu Li really wanted to buy, the young man was overjoyed and said tentatively, "How about a total of fifteen low-grade spiritual stones?"

Fifteen low-grade spiritual stones were just a drop in the bucket for Lu Li, but for a struggling casual cultivator like him, it was already a windfall.

And although the green flame grass was well preserved, its age was too low. Normally, no one would be willing to buy it, because it could not be used to make pills, and no one would be willing to spend time cultivating it. It was not an exaggeration to say that it was useless.

"Nine low-grade spirit stones, I'll take them, not one more."

Although a few spirit stones were not a big deal for Lu Li, he was not only planning to buy these three green flame grasses. If he set a precedent, it would be difficult to make future transactions.

Hearing this, the young man hesitated for a moment, gritted his teeth, "Okay, nine is nine."

As he said this, he handed the three green flame grasses to Lu Li, not worrying that Lu Li would not pay. Lu Li nodded, took the green flame grass, and took out nine low-grade spirit stones and handed them to the young man, completing the transaction.

As expected, just after the transaction was completed, the stall owner next to him had his eyes light up, took out two gray seedlings, and shouted to Lu Li expectantly: "Senior, I also have two third-level potential spiritual medicines here, would you like to take a look?"

Lu Li glanced at the seedlings in the other party's hand, and said calmly: "Twenty-year-old sword-shaped grass, two spirit stones per plant, if you want to sell it, just bring it over."

"Sell, sell!" The stall owner did not bargain at all, and hurriedly came over with the sword-shaped grass, "Senior, here."

Lu Li nodded, took out four low-grade spirit stones, and took two sword-shaped grasses.

"Senior, I have a hundred-year-old cloud grass here..."

"Senior, I have a fifty-year-old dragon-shaped flower here..."

"I have a one hundred and fifty-year-old evergreen grass here..."

"......"

Seeing this, the people around him immediately swarmed towards Lu Li as if they had discovered a new continent. Lu Li was not surprised by the performance of the crowd, because there were too few people who collected such low-level spiritual medicines, especially low-level spiritual medicines in small quantities.

However, Lu Li also accepted all who came. He looked around and said to the young man who sold him the Green Flame Grass, "Do you still want this stall? If not, I'll use it."

"No, no, senior, just use it." The thin and dark young man had a good look and made way with a flattering look.

"Thank you."

Lu Li smiled and nodded, sat behind the stone platform and shouted to the crowd: "Don't squeeze, line up, all the spiritual medicines today, how many you have, I will take as much as you have."

In order to prevent someone from playing tricks, Lu Li no longer suppressed his momentum and called himself "this seat".

Seeing this, most of the people showed an expression of "as expected", and the originally noisy crowd also quieted down, began to line up in an orderly manner, and came forward one by one.

As everyone came forward one by one, Lu Li received more and more spiritual medicines. These spiritual medicines were all third-level growth potential without exception, and some were not seedlings, but had reached more than a hundred years.

What made Lu Li happy was that as word of mouth spread, more and more people came to sell spiritual medicines, and he actually received a Buddha Heart Fruit Tree. Although there were no fruits on it, Lu Li believed that as long as it was transplanted into the medicine garden, new fruits would grow in a short time.

Buddha Heart Fruit is one of the main ingredients for refining Corpse Nourishing Pill and Vein Nourishing Pill, it is really an unexpected surprise.

"Senior, take a look at this, do you want it?"

Suddenly, a young man in white came to Lu Li holding a small tree with lush branches and leaves, and asked with a nervous look on his face.
