Survival [End Times]

It took a day and a night to reach Nanzhou after walking through the Tianqian. After landing, they found that there was also a Tianqian City here, and the internal and external structures were very similar to those of Xizhou. Because livestock were not allowed on the treasure ship, their mounts were sold in the Tianqian City of Xizhou, and the buyers bought them at a low price. As a result, when they bought mounts in Tianqian City here, the price increased tenfold. Not to mention the prices of other catering and accommodation, it was simply clear that "it's so expensive, it's up to you whether you want it or not."

The people who came from afar complained, but they didn't dare to complain after the patrolman on the road yelled and scolded.

Even if they ripped people off again, they still had to spend what they should spend. There was only this Tianqian City within a hundred miles of this place.

Yu Heng and his friends had dry food and were not picky about accommodation, so they hurried to buy a carriage and a donkey, intending to go to the next city while it was only afternoon.

After spending several thousand crystal coins to purchase means of transportation, everyone went to the next city. There were maps for sale in Tianqian City, but Yu Heng didn't let him buy them: "I know the way, no need to buy them." He had read all the geographical maps of various places. To come to Nanzhou, he even read all the maps of Nanzhou in his mind. The next city was in the direction of one o'clock, and it was 120 miles away.

While rushing on the road, Yu Heng thought that he still had to practice quickly. He saw a flying carpet for the third level of Qi training in the sub-exchange system. He found a problem. The prices of the immortal cultivation products that needed spiritual power to drive were not high. He now roughly knew the pricing principle of rt9009's company: the company can use and actually apply the products in the real world with high value, so the price is high. On the contrary, no matter how good they are, they are of little value and are priced low.

The flying carpet for the third level of Qi training is priced at ten points, and the exquisitely made treasure ship with both offense and defense is only thirty points. The finished talisman is even less valuable. A bundle of one hundred firewood is worth ten points. There is no way. No matter how good these things are, the company cannot extract them from the data and make them into real products.

On the contrary, some elixirs are quite expensive, such as bodybuilding elixirs, anti-aging elixirs, and longevity elixirs... The single prescriptions of these products have high research and reference significance. As long as we find alternative medicinal materials in reality, the possibility of developing them is extremely high. Therefore, in terms of pricing, they are much more expensive than Qi-inducing elixirs and foundation-building elixirs.

For Yu Heng, this is a good thing. On the way, his parents also said, why not open a small restaurant in Nanzhou? But he has other ideas: open a small store specializing in immortal cultivation items. The things don't have to be high-end, just buy those low-level elixirs, talismans, and treasures from the sub-exchange system. It's inconspicuous, and it's not as hard as running a restaurant.

This is his initial idea, and he hasn't told his parents yet. After settling down, he has to test his parents' spiritual roots first, and he also needs to communicate with Cui Nan again.

After arriving in the new city, they stayed there overnight. If you want to say what the biggest difference between the city of Nanzhou and the city of Xizhou is, there are traces of immortal cultivation everywhere.

After entering the city, there are stalls selling spiritual herbs and spiritual medicines on the street. The surrounding shops are waving banners with words like "Baibao Pavilion" and "Talisman" written on them, and the business is very good.

Unlike the almost complete isolation from the cultivation of immortals in Xizhou, many aspects of life in the mortal world of Nanzhou are related to the cultivation of immortals. Most of the mortals with spiritual roots who have not worshipped a master practice on their own, which is called casual cultivation. These casual cultivators have a wish, that is, if they practice to the foundation-building stage, they may enter the immortal gate.

Therefore, various shops and stalls are very popular among the people. The dream of immortality is the most wonderful temptation no matter when and where.

After staying in this city for a few days, Yu Heng felt that it was feasible to open a shop. He opened an inconspicuous small shop, and the things sold were not high-end, and it was not easy to cause trouble. Even if he was provoked, he could deal with it after he practiced.

He discussed it with his parents and Cui Nan, and they also thought that this business would be great if it could be done. Cui Nan also said, "I see that those shops and vendors are doing very well!" But there is one thing that is difficult, "We don't have a source of goods."

"This is easy." Yu Heng told his parents and Cui Nan about asking the three of them to test their spiritual roots, "If you also have spiritual roots, our family's strength will be improved after practicing, and we can also dig those spiritual herbs and beasts, and learn to draw some talismans, and maybe we can make elixirs. Before that, we can sell the things my master gave us."

What he said later actually doesn't stand up to scrutiny. For example, talismans and elixirs are not something that can be mastered by practicing. Some of them are due to talent and other reasons. Moreover, how long can you sell the things given by the "master"? It's just that Yu's mother and the others don't understand these things, and they are also shocked by Yu Heng's "testing spiritual roots".

"Test, test spiritual roots?" Oh, in Comrade Yu Aiguo's memory, that is an advanced method that only immortals have!

Cui Nan had been told that his cousin had met a kind immortal and was now cultivating immortality. He also thought: The ancestors of his cousin's family burned green incense. But he never thought that he could test his spiritual roots.

Everyone was surprised and happy. When Yu Heng said that this was also given by the master, they all said that this was really a good master, so considerate.

After a test, Yu's father and mother both had five spiritual roots, and Cui Nan had two spiritual roots of water and wood, with a purity of 83%. Yu Heng was not happy. According to his understanding, five spiritual roots basically had no hope of cultivating immortals.

Parents did not understand these things either. They were quite happy that they had spiritual roots. Yu Heng did not want his parents to be frustrated and upset after hard practice without any results. He gritted his teeth and told them that five spiritual roots were equivalent to pseudo spiritual roots.

"It's okay, it's okay! Look at your expression..." Yu's father and mother were also very open-minded after being disappointed. "We are so old that we can't cultivate well. If you and Xiaonan practice well, we will be relieved."

Yu Heng calmed down and nodded. He gave Cui Nan the technique suitable for the water and wood spirit roots he found, and asked him to figure it out first, and gave him the dictionary as a tool.

Since he had decided to open a store, the location was also very important. Yu Heng's idea was to find a town close to a sect of immortal cultivation, so that the business flow would be guaranteed, and the safety factor would be increased because of the activities of the sect of immortal cultivation.

"The nearest sect is Jinshuimen, but I think the way Tianqian City behaves doesn't seem good..." Yu Heng didn't include Jinshuimen in the plan list. Although Congtianqian was a force supported by Jinshuimen, he couldn't put all the forces' behavior on Jinshuimen, but he always considered the worst side of everything - if it was really Jinshuimen's instruction, the upper and lower levels would follow suit, and Jinshuimen's territory would be severely exploited.

"It's better to go to Cong Yingzong, which is a long-standing immortal sect and is very prosperous."

"Okay, I'll listen to you."

Nanzhou is not divided by numbers like Xizhou. People call it by a certain immortal sect or a certain country. In fact, Nanzhou is four times larger than Xizhou, with various sects and conflicts.

It was half a month later when they arrived at the area under the jurisdiction of Cong Yingzong. After arriving here, the four of them felt that such a long journey was worth it.

The human settlement radiating from the Cong Yingzong sect is very prosperous. Yu Heng and his friends settled in a relatively remote town and spent 10,000 crystal coins to buy a yard and 12,000 crystal coins to buy a small shop.

After spending so much, Yu's mother was terrified and asked Yu Heng: "Bao'er, if you sell the things your master gave you, what if he gets angry?"

"Master said I can do whatever I want with them."

"What if you sell them and you don't have any to use? How about I open a restaurant with your dad! The store is a little small, but it's enough for a noodle shop."

Yu Heng comforted her: "It's enough, the master gave me a lot of things." He even poured out some of them for her to see. They were all goods he had bought from the sub-exchange system a long time ago, including Qi-inducing pills, foundation-building pills, and primary talismans such as explosion talismans, cleaning talismans, etc., which were all relatively common and commonly used things.

He planned to sell only Qi-inducing pills and foundation-building pills. The purchase price of other commonly used pills such as Qingxin pills and Bigu pills was too expensive and not worth it. He planned to sell talismans exclusively. Talismans require spiritual power to activate, and the price is cheaper than cabbage.

Seeing what her son brought out, Yu's mother felt relieved and asked him, "How are you going to set the price?"

"I'll ask other merchants, the price should be about the same."

In this way, the Yu family's shop opened in a low-key manner. Although there are few kinds of elixirs, they are all very practical! This era is an era of prosperous cultivation of immortals. Almost everyone in Nanzhou cultivates immortals. Even those with five spiritual roots never give up their dreams. When Yu Heng saw the white-haired old man walk into the store to buy Qi-inducing pills, he couldn't help but sigh.

Under the general environment, Qi-inducing pills sell very well. Even if the spiritual roots are not good, what if they really succeed in inducing Qi into the body? One Qi-inducing pill sells for 100 crystal coins, making the Yu family shop full of money.

Besides, the foundation-building pill is a must-have for cultivators at the Qi training level. One pill costs 500 crystal coins and sells very well. In fact, there is no store of immortal cultivation supplies in Nanzhou that has bad business. Soon the business was on track. Yu Heng also stepped into the first level of Qi training while occasionally watching the store and practicing, and Cui Nan also successfully led Qi into the body.

Yu's father and mother were very happy with their business. After taking the marrow cleansing pills and longevity pills provided by Yu Heng, their physical fitness reached a new level. With daily income, the couple's favorite thing was to close the door and count the money, and then let Yu Heng put it away: "Put it in the ring your master gave you, hide it!"

The Yu family in Nanzhou, Zhenwei Continent, gradually integrated into the local life. The population here is dense, the mobility is extremely large, and the commerce is developed. It is a microcosm of the entire Nanzhou, even Zhenwei Continent, and the other three continents.

Everyone is rushing to the road of seeking immortality and asking for the way.

Speaking of the other three continents, we have to talk about the Endless Sea that divides Zhenyuan Continent into four continents. The Endless Sea is listed as the most dangerous place in the world of immortal cultivation, vast and boundless. It is said that only Yuanying Zhenren and above cannot pass through, but in fact it only means that Yuanying can withstand the spiritual pressure of the sea. If you really go alone, you will be crushed by various dangers in eight or nine out of ten cases, and Yuanying can't escape.

Unless you are a cultivator in the Crossing Tribulation Stage, cultivators of other levels must travel together to go through, and the requirements for flying equipment are extremely high, at least a mid-level treasure. Even if the road is smooth, it will take half a year to walk.

All kinds of difficulties mean that crossing the sea is not a casual thing, so the news between the four continents is extremely unsmooth.

Therefore, when the Zhenmiao Continent was suddenly smashed by the ancient secret realm, destroying half of the continent and a small part of the Endless Sea, other continents had no way to know for a while.

In fact, for some secret realms and caves, cultivators flock to them, and if it is an ancient secret realm, it is even more the focus of competition. But the ancient secret realm that suddenly appeared this time, it it it, it is the realm of the devil!

The ancient times were an era of brilliant stars. It is said that even the spiritual energy between heaven and earth is millions of times that of today. Whether it was true or not is no longer known, but seeing the dark and slanting demonic energy, the cultivators of Zhenmiao Continent were trembling with fear. The demonic energy of the ancient demon realm was really deadly! But along with the fear came the expectation and desire to dig up ancient treasures!

Zhenmiao Continent fell into sweet torture, but Yu Heng, who was far away in Zhenwei Continent, didn't know about this. His vacation was over. His cultivation process was still at the first level of Qi training. In fact, he didn't spend much time on cultivation, unlike Cui Nan who practiced day and night. He arranged his time reasonably, often accompanied his parents to watch the store, and occasionally went to the market.

Although this was not the normal way of cultivating immortals, the road to cultivating immortals was long, and he couldn't be sure that he could really keep going. If he lost his parents by then, wouldn't that be putting the cart before the horse?

After the vacation, he continued to start the task, looking forward to the next reunion with his parents.
