This way, he could know exactly how many treasures inside were what he needed.
Of course, this didn't an he had to buy everything today. It was enough to rember and have soone else buy it later. Even a Qi Cultivation Cultivator could buy it with a Spirit-Blocking Robe.
Without leaving the market, even a True Master wouldn't be able to do much to a Qi Cultivation Cultivator.
However, if truly forced, that Qi Cultivation Cultivator wouldn't be able to stay in the market.
"There are restrictions on checking by oneself here; you must not co within three feet of the bookshelf, and you must also verify funds," the Chief Steward continued.
Ye Jingcheng nodded at this restriction. Although there were arrays nowadays making theft difficult, it's better to be safe than sorry.
This restriction is reasonable.
Ye Jingcheng took out a storage bag to show thirty middle grade Spirit Stones, which received an inviting gesture from the chubby Chief Steward.
He then walked into the bookshelves. The spirit shadows and arrays on the shelves made Ye Jingcheng estimate that even if he wanted to get within three feet, he would probably encounter arrays.
As his divine sense penetrated the spirit shields, he saw transparent jade boxes and various treasures.
Many of these spirit dicines were not particularly rare; the rarity lay in their age, each being two to three hundred years old.
They were mostly spirit dicines for refining Tier Two Spirit Pills, and there were also many spirit pills on the shelves, such as the Fire Heart Pill, Green Water Pill, and Purple Wood Pill that Ye Jingcheng refined.
Almost everything was here.
Ye Jingcheng also saw Tier Two Earth Attribute Spirit Pills and Stone Essence Pills.
He never spoke, and the chubby Chief Steward beside him remained silent, seemingly constantly gauging Ye Jingcheng's gaze.
It seed the Chief Steward was estimating which spirit dicine Ye Jingcheng fancied, and what attribute cultivation technique he practiced, and where he ca from.
Ye Jingcheng walked back and forth twice, taking about the ti of half a stick of incense.
"Chief Steward Xiao, is this all the gold attribute spirit dicines and pills you have here? This seems a bit ordinary," Ye Jingcheng spoke.
"Is the Daoist friend a cultivator of a gold attribute cultivation technique?" the chubby Chief Steward asked again.
"No need to concern yourself with that, Daoist friend. I'm also interested in familiar things, like the 400-year-old Water Fairy Ganoderma and 300-year-old Fire Jade Lotus. Na a price," Ye Jingcheng didn't answer Chief Steward Xiao's question, aware that everyone was probing.
However, he confused their listening, making the chubby Chief Steward guess more.
And so, he even altered his personality.
As for whether such arrogance would get him followed, he didn't care, as he estimated that he wouldn't leave Taichang Market for nearly two years.
Moreover, this ti he ca with a Spirit-Blocking Robe.
"The Water Fairy Ganoderma, being a water attribute spirit dicine, has extrely harsh growth conditions, only becoming a dicine after a hundred years; four hundred years old is definitely a rare gem on the market, priced at 1100 Spirit Stones, while the Fire Jade Lotus is more common. Since you're straightforward, it'll be 850 Spirit Stones," Chief Steward Xiao said smilingly.
However, Ye Jingcheng did not return a favorable expression, knowing well that sotis, the straightforward prices were higher than when not being straightforward.
But Ye Jingcheng feigned an unpleasant tone, not wanting to appear as a Loose Cultivator, so he didn't haggle.
"Daoist friend is straightforward, and so am I. I won't haggle either. Could you kindly include so Tier One Spiritual dicines? And please don't offer a straightforward price for them," Ye Jingcheng said.
He also added so remaining spirit dicines for the Tier Two Red Fla Pill so that others couldn't trace the pill formula of the Red Fla Pill and then handed the jade talisman over to the latter.
The latter smiled imdiately, saying nothing, understanding what Ye Jingcheng ant, and started reviewing the jade talisman.
Quickly, he used transmission to call for a young servant to fetch the spirit dicines.
And invited Ye Jingcheng to rest at an Eight Immortals Table.
"Daoist friend, take a rest and have so Spirit Tea. The spirit dicines will arrive shortly!"
"I've also looked at these spirit dicines you have, they're at most 400 Spirit Stones worth, consider it the foundation of a friendship. You should know that so spirit dicines are rare outside," he said.
"Also, if Daoist friend has spirit pills to sell, our store would be open to purchasing them as well."
"Rest assured, certainly!" Ye Jingcheng nodded, playing it ambiguous, as an Alchemy Master would naturally understand the general price of spirit dicines.
These auxiliary dicines for 400 Spirit Stones were definitely quite fair; considering their actual value, they could reach around 600 Spirit Stones, though the Water Fairy Ganoderma and Red Jade Lotus were overcharged by more than a hundred Spirit Stones.
Thus Ye Jingcheng spoke sarcastically, and the other party intentionally overpriced a bit, waiting for Ye Jingcheng to negotiate the price.
They seed to want to gauge Ye Jingcheng's sensitivity to spirit dicine prices to determine if he was an Alchemy Master.
However, Ye Jingcheng refused to let them have their way and agreed directly.
As for the ntion of alchemy, he deliberately kept it vague.
When the young servant fetched the spirit dicines, Ye Jingcheng took out a storage bag and handed it over.
Inside were precisely 2,350 Spirit Stones.
Then Ye Jingcheng left the pill shop and slowly strolled toward a nearby magical artifact shop.
Even though he had quite a few artifacts, he didn't like having a tail behind him.
This shop was also large and belonged to a Purple Mansion family.
Upon entering, it was much warr than the previous Jin's Shop.
At the mont, Ye Jingcheng looked quite pleased, his mood was also good.
Not only did he obtain all the auxiliary dicines for the Tier Two Red Fla Pill, but he also got one of the main dicines for the Tier Two Jade Qilin Pill and nurous spirit dicines for Wood Demon Spirit Liquid.
Indeed, so of the spirit dicines mixed in were precisely for the Wood Demon's advancing dicine recipe.
The Peach Wood Demon could also advance according to the Treasure Book.
Ye Jingcheng estimated that what increased was still the lifespan of the Spiritual Peach.
Such treasures were even rarer.
Thus, these auxiliary dicines cost 600 Spirit Stones.
After all, his Tier Two Red Fla Pill only lacked three or four auxiliary dicines, which didn't require that much at all.
Additionally, Jin's Shop also had a main dicine for a Tier Two Golden Scale Pill.
But Ye Jingcheng didn't plan to buy it himself.
Buying too much might get him noticed by the Foundation Establishnt cultivators.
Moreover, what he mainly needed besides the Tier Two Red Fla Pill was that Tier One Wood Spirit Liquid.
Preparing spirit liquid is simpler compared to refining spirit pills, but the quantity of spirit liquid must be vast.
Ye Jingcheng planned to have Ye Jinhao and Ye Jingyu co to buy more later on.
Walking through the shop, Ye Jingcheng got a sense of the prices of artifacts but made no purchases, waiting until fewer people were leaving, then used body transformation and concealing cultivation with the Supre Turtle Concealing Breath Technique.
He controlled his cultivation level to look like the Qi Cultivation Eighth Layer and rged into the crowd.
eting with Ye Jingyu and others at the plaza entrance, this was the day Ye Jingcheng had planned for gathering.
Ye Xingyi was already waiting there, and as soon as Ye Jingcheng arrived, Ye Jingyu, Ye Jinhao, and Ye Jingyun also ca over.
All three had smiles on their faces.
"Let's go to Chu's shop!" Ye Jingcheng said, and everyone changed into Ye Family robes again and headed toward the South District.
Soon, at the mouth of an alley in the South District, they found a store with the sign "Chu Ye Pavilion."
In front of the store was soone Ye Jingcheng knew from the Ye family betrothal event, a female cultivator.
This female cultivator was nad Chu Xianyu, though quite ordinary, only at the Qi Cultivation Fifth Layer, not standing out in the Chu family. However, cultivators have good mories, and he rembered her with just a glance.
"Elder Ye, my fifth sister has been waiting on the second floor for a long ti!" Chu Xianyu, who had looked a bit weary due to the dwindling number of cultivators as night fell, beca sowhat excited as she saw Ye Jingcheng leading a few people over.
That "fifth sister" had Ye Jingcheng frowning!
If he rembered correctly, she was Chu Yanqing, who had approached him to talk.
She was a core disciple of the Chu family, and four years had passed; she had indeed broken through to Foundation Establishnt.
"Ye Daoist friend, what an unexpected guest. I wonder if this lady can chat with a Foundation Establishnt level cultivator today?" Chu Yanqing smiled charmingly, seemingly eager to see Ye Jingcheng's expression.
Of course, at the betrothal gathering, Ye Jingcheng had brushed her off with this phrase.
Ye Jingcheng hadn't anticipated eting Chu Yanqing again today.
And she had risen to the rank of Foundation Establishnt Chief Steward.
