The Mortal's Path to Immortality

Cao Rui drove Hei Yu all the way, and he began to look forward to returning to the market.

Along the way, he traveled tens of thousands of miles.

Finally, the day before the test, the outline of Qingling Market appeared in his consciousness. The familiar market was also Cao Rui's "home" now.

Cao Rui showed a faint smile on his face.

He patted Hei Yu's head and said, "Hei Yu, let's go home quickly!" Hei Yu also cried happily, as if responding to Cao Rui's words.

It accelerated and rushed to Qingling Xiuxian Market.

"Wait." Cao Rui patted the anxious Hei Yu lightly, signaling it to calm down.

As the owner of the market, he naturally knew the mechanism of the third-level defense formation of Qingling Market. If a foundation-building cultivator forcibly broke in, it would definitely trigger an alarm.

This would bring unnecessary trouble to the market.

The most important thing is that the small array plate is not in his hand at this time, so he can't act rashly.

So, they waited patiently outside the array.

Not long after, a figure of a foundation-building cultivator passed through the air and quickly came to them.

This person was Ye Yunyin.

"Come back? From your appearance, your cultivation seems to have improved!" Ye Yunyin looked at Cao Rui and said with a smile.

"Yes, I killed a lot of monsters over there and swallowed a lot of monster spirit pills. You know my talent for alchemy, so I naturally benefited a lot." Cao Rui replied with a smile, and nodded slightly to Ye Yunyin. .

Under the leadership of Ye Yunyin, Cao Rui followed him through the array.

At this time, Qingling Market was obviously much more lively than half a day ago.

As Cao Rui's consciousness unfolded, he actually felt a strong atmosphere of spiritual power in the Xiuxian Market.

This feeling was very strange. After all, the Xiuxian world should be different from the secular world, but now it makes people feel a different warm atmosphere.

After careful observation, Cao Rui found that this change may be due to the increase in the number of people in the market.

Most of these people are relatives, friends or direct descendants of the cultivators.

Because the market does not have strict requirements on identity like the sect, anyone can enter as long as they can afford the spirit stone.

And the Qingling Market adopts a free mechanism to attract more people.

Therefore, those far-sighted cultivators sent their relatives and friends to the market in advance.

Not long ago, due to too many people in the market, Ye Yunyin and Zhang Mo had to jointly issue a ban restricting people from entering the market.

Only the direct bloodline of the cultivator, or spending spirit stones, can allow people to enter the market.

And no matter whether it is direct bloodline or spending spirit stones, each cultivator has a limit on the number of people he can bring into the market.

In this way, the number of people entering Qingling Market has been reduced.

After all, not every cultivator is willing to spend spirit stones for others.

Not long after, Cao Rui and Ye Yunyin flew into the seventh floor of the cultivation tower.

After talking with Ye Yunyin for a while.

Cao Rui learned from him some recent changes in Qingling Market and information about the Spirit Beast Sect.

Not long after, Zhang Mo came flying in the air, holding a storage bag and a jade slip in his hand.

"Master, you are finally back. This is the income of Lingyin Jade Pendant during this period of time. The income and expenditure are recorded in this jade slip."

Cao Rui waved his hand, and the jade slip and storage bag fell into Cao Rui's hands.

The jade slip contains detailed information such as the sale record of Lingyin Jade Pendant.

Cao Rui was surprised to find that all the Lingyin Jade Pendants he had left behind were sold.

"The permanent population of Fangshi has exceeded 20,000, doubling all thanks to your Lingyin Jade Pendant, Master."

"Now the cultivators in Fangshi hope that you can further expand the signal range of Lingyin Jade Pendant."

"In this way, their range of activities can be expanded with confidence." Zhang Mo said.

Cao Rui nodded slightly, and his consciousness read the contents of the jade slip.

"The Lingyin jade pendant brought in 78,000 Lingshi in total."

"The Lingyin points brought in 35,000. This is because the level is approaching and will expire soon, so everyone has started to recharge."

Adding the gains from selling monster meat in the East China Sea, Cao Rui has almost 140,000 Lingshi on him.

Cao Rui suddenly felt that his pockets were bulging.

Thinking about it, Cao Rui took out two portions of five Lingshi, put them into storage bags separately, and gave them to Zhang Mo and Ye Yunyin.

"This is what you deserve, please be sure to accept it."

Zhang Mo and Ye Yunyin looked at each other, and then they had to accept the Lingshi.

The contribution points given by the Lingshou Sect to the elders in the foundation-building period vary from day to day. As the first seat, Cao Rui's five contribution points are considered a lot.

According to the one-to-one exchange rate between contribution points and spirit stones, Cao Rui gave them five spirit stones, which was a good amount of money.

"I have enough materials for the spirit pattern crystal."

"But the arrangement of the signal tower still needs to be discussed with the chief Wu Qingxuan."

"Let's spend the day in the market first, and then go to the sect to discuss it with the chief Wu."

After making up his mind, Cao Rui stayed in the market for a while.

This time, Cao Rui hunted monsters for a long time in the East Sea market, and Cao Rui obviously had a little more evil spirit.

The monsters killed by Cao Rui in the past few months are probably more than those killed by most of the foundation-building cultivators.

After talking with Ye Yunyin and Zhang Mo for half a day, Cao Rui had an understanding of the current situation of the market, the sect and the southwest.

The biggest change is of course the Qingling Xiuxian Market, which has become popular due to the Lingyin Jade Pendant.

The number of permanent cultivators has doubled to 20,000.

There is not much change in the Lingshou Sect, which has been developing steadily.

The entire southwest of Yunzhou has not changed much as a whole. For the Xiuxian world, a period of time is just a fleeting moment.

However, the Yinshui Xiuxian Market, which was jointly built by Yunshui Sect and Miaoyin Temple, is said to have imitated the Lingyin Jade Pendant to create a Yinshui Earring.

However, the price of this Yinshui Earring is as high as 30 Lingshi, and it is said that the communication range is much shorter than that of the Lingyin Jade Pendant, and the loss rate is still very high.

The reason for the high loss rate is said to be that it uses 0-level refining materials and engraves a 1-level magic array on it.

Ordinary low-level casual cultivators cannot afford this price and loss rate.

It is true that cultivators in the middle and late stages of Qi Refining no longer flow to Qingling Xiuxian Market, after all, it is hard to leave their hometown.

Zhang Mo also took out a pair of Yinshui earrings he made for Cao Rui to see.

"It is really a first-level magic array engraved with 0-level materials. This thing will be damaged after one or two uses at most. This is not the way to save costs, right? Is the weapon refiner behind Yinshui Market pinched on the forehead?" Cao Rui commented.

This caused Zhang Mo and Ye Yunyin to smile at each other.

Thousands of miles away in Yinshui Xiuxian Market, Yunshui Sect weapon refiner, the owner of Yinshui Market, Gongsun Zhi, suddenly sneezed.

"Huh? Is someone plotting against me?"
