Cultivation: From Servant to Revered Immortal

Chapter 172: Chapter 102: Lii Feiyu?

”These items, you take a look and estimate a price!” Zhou Xun said lightly and then picked up the Spirit Tea, slowly savoring it.

A moment later, the elder finished counting and, after considering for a while, cautiously gave a price:

”Thirty-seven thousand Spirit Stones, how does that sound?”

Hearing this number, Zhou Xun nodded.

”Let’s go with that price!”

”By the way, do you have any Spirit Medicine above Quasi-Third Tier for sale?”

Just now on the first floor, Zhou Xun noticed there were Spirit Medicine for sale, so he casually asked.

”Of course, even Tier Two Top-Grade Spirit Medicine!” Zhou Xun added.

Upon hearing this, the elder shook his head with a wry smile:

”Spirit Medicine above Tier Two Top-Grade are extremely rare in the world, they are often the treasures of stores specializing in Spirit Medicine; our humble shop truly does not possess such items, I beg your pardon!”

Zhou Xun was not surprised, he was just trying his luck.

”What about Golden Meteorite Sand or Dragon’s Roar Crystal?” Zhou Xun continued to ask.

”If you had come earlier, there was a Dragon’s Roar Crystal weighing four taels and five qian, but unfortunately, this treasure was bought by another senior six months ago!”

The elder bowed and responded.

”However, if you are interested, I happen to know a place where you might find such treasures!”

”Do tell!” Zhou Xun showed interest.

”In two months, there will be an exchange meeting for Core Formation Stage cultivators, if you attend, you might gain something!”

”An exchange meeting for Core Formation cultivators?” Zhou Xun murmured to himself, feeling intrigued.

”Yes, my master’s master is one of the initiators of this meeting, that’s why I know about it!”

The elder explained.

”Where will it be held?”

”Right here at Hundred Pleasures Tower. If you’re interested, I can report to my master, who loves making connections, and would be very pleased to hear about you!”

”By the way, please leave a name!”

”I am Lii Feiyu!” Zhou Xun said calmly.

”Ah, it’s Senior Lii, please wait a moment, as the number of Spirit Stones is quite large, I need to fetch them from the storeroom!”

The elder bowed and then left the elegant room.

Moments later, the elder returned, holding a Storage Bag.

”Inside there are three hundred and seventy Middle-Grade Spirit Stones, please verify!”

Zhou Xun checked and found them to be accurate, so he got up and left.

Arriving on the first floor, Wenn Siyue was already waiting there.

”What did you pick, was there any treasure you liked?” Zhou Xun asked with a slight smile.

Wenn Siyue bowed respectfully, her eyes showing resolve:

”Siyue is merely a hired guide for you, I’ll just take my guide’s fee; the treasures here are too precious, I cannot accept them!”

”Are you sure you don’t want them?” Zhou Xun asked in surprise.

The girl clearly lived in extreme poverty in Fengyuan City, yet could resist the temptation of these treasures.

Although it was only the first floor, there were items priced near a hundred Spirit Stones, if the girl chose such a treasure, Zhou Xun would not go back on his word.

If she exchanged it for Spirit Stones, it would surely solve her predicament!

To reject such an opportunity!

”This girl’s character is excellent, truly rare!”

”Too bad, I came under a disguised identity this time, otherwise I could’ve taken her as a Registered Disciple!”

Zhou Xun thought to himself.

”Thank you for your kindness, senior, but Siyue cannot accept!” The girl firmly shook her head.

”Alright then!” Zhou Xun nodded and, under the shopkeeper’s respectful gaze, walked out.

After leaving, Zhou Xun headed to Hundred Skills Institute.

Unfortunately, they only sold Tier One puppets, which weren’t of much help to Zhou Xun.

The only two Tier Two Low-Grade puppets were not for sale, so Zhou Xun left disappointed.

Next, Zhou Xun visited various Spirit Medicine shops in Fengyuan City, but the most precious he found was only a Tier Two High-Grade Spirit Medicine.

He couldn’t find the Tier Two Top-Grade Spirit Medicine he needed.

As for the ”Golden Meteorite” and ”Dragon’s Chant Metal,” Zhou Xun didn’t manage to buy them either.

”It seems, I’ll have to wait for the Core Formation Level exchange meeting!”

The cultivation of the First Cultivator in Fengg Country was only at the Middle-Stage True Core; he didn’t have to worry about his cultivation being discovered.

Afterward, Zhou Xun found an inn to stay temporarily.

Beside the inn.

”Siyue, thanks to you for leading the way these few days, you’ve saved me a lot of trouble!” Zhou Xun looked at the girl in front of him, showing a satisfied expression.

”It is Siyue’s honor to serve you, senior!” The girl’s eyes were exceedingly large, filled with sincerity and expectation.

Zhou Xun smiled slightly,

then reached into his Storage Bag with a pat, bringing out several treasures.

”As a Loose Cultivator, if you wish to make a standing in the Cultivation Realm, it’s best to learn a skill!”

”This booklet records a Tier Two Low-Grade Talisman Dao legacy, take it and study well!”

”I think you have a clever mind; you might have some talent in the Dao of Talisman Making!”

”If you can learn Talisman Making, then you’ll have a technique to secure your life!” Saying this, he handed over a golden Talisman Pen.

”This Talisman Pen, I used when I was young, I gift it to you as well!”

”Plus, there are these sets of Low-Tier Talisman Paper and Spirit Ink!”

”I’ll be residing in this inn for two months; if you have any questions, you can come ask me!”

”Senior, I!” Wenn Siyue’s eyes filled with tears, and she immediately knelt to kowtow several times.

The saying goes, ’Give a man a fish and he’ll eat for a day; teach a man to fish and he’ll eat for a lifetime,’ truly this senior considers her well-being, aside from her parents, no one else has treated her this well.

”Senior’s great kindness, how Siyue can ever repay, I do not know your honorable name!”

”I myself started as a Loose Cultivator, knowing well the struggles of common cultivators; your excellent character is commendable, if you achieve something in the future, don’t forget today’s principles!”

”As for names, let’s leave it at that!”

”Yes, Siyue will remember the senior’s lessons!”

Zhou Xun has cultivated to this day and made a place for himself in the Cultivation Realm; occasionally bestowing fortune to promising talents is not unwelcome.

The Powerful Cultivators recorded in the Cultivation Realm, often wander the world, assisting the younger generation.

...

Soon, two months passed.

Under the guidance of Zhou Xun, a Tier Two Middle-Grade Rune Master, Wenn Siyue became a Talisman Master Apprentice, capable of drawing the simplest Clothes Cleaning Talisman!

This girl indeed has considerable talent in the Dao of Talisman Mastery.

That morning, after eating Spirit Rice, Zhou Xun directly headed to Hundred Pleasures Tower.

Today is the day of the exchange meeting.

A while ago, introduced by the shopkeeper at Hundred Pleasures Tower, Zhou Xun met his master, an established nearly four-hundred-year-old Fake Pill Cultivator—Master Wenyang.

The fifth floor of Hundred Pleasures Tower is the location of the exchange meeting.

Entering the fifth floor, there were only three cultivators inside.

The thin-faced, blue-robed middle-aged man was Master Wenyang.

The other two, one was a black-faced burly man, and the other was an elder with white hair and beard, both Fake Pill Cultivators, but Zhou Xun did not know them before.

”Daoist Lii is here!” Master Wenyang greeted Zhou Xun as he entered politely,

then introduced him to everyone:

”This is Daoist Lii Feiyu, a cultivator from Yue Country, who happened to be traveling here!”
