Tan Shaoting found the managent office in Salt City and rented a small courtyard. It wasn’t a problem for the four of them to live there.
To get familiar with a city, you have to look around its shops.
The father and sons had arranged everything and went directly to the Spiritual Food Pavilion, which was also the quickest place to get information.
Sitting in the hall, they ordered vegetarian dishes, really not wanting to eat beast at anymore.
Everyone was actually discussing the auction. They were all thinking about making so money from the cultivators coming from all directions.
"I’ll leave the city tomorrow to gather so good stuff."
"Is Salt City only famous for its bronze ore? Do you have any on hand?"
A cultivator nearby jokingly asked.
"How would I have that stuff? But I think I can manage so elixirs. I’ll go to other workshops to acquire so."
Father and sons didn’t hear any useful information, so they paid the bill and left.
Tan Shaoting took the children to Duobao Pavilion, where the store was really crowded. They didn’t need anything and didn’t want to squeeze with so many people, so they went to the Free Market instead.
In fact, it was about the sa, just more crowded.
The four of them were still thinking about the purple stone, but they didn’t find any after a round, and they didn’t need anything else.
"Dad, let’s go back."
Tan Shaoting nodded. "Let’s have another al, and after that, go back to cultivate."
Tan Shaoting actually wanted to know what items would be up for auction. If not, whether he should consign the Vermilion Fruit for auction.
They were indeed lacking in speed. What they needed now was a movent technique. They had practiced ordinary cultivation techniques, but they really weren’t effective.
This ti, Duobao Pavilion hadn’t released information on the auction items because nobody had discussed them.
Tan Shaoting packed a hundred stead buns. He would actually pack so every ti he ate. Storing them wasn’t an issue.
After returning, they started adjusting. The three children studied swordsmanship together, and he could also guide them on basic sword skills.
After nesting in the house for five days, Tan Shaoting took the children to Duobao Pavilion.
He was considered a big custor there and took out a wooden token.
"Fellow Daoist, what do you need?"
"Shopkeeper, I ca this ti to find a movent technique. I wonder if there will be one in the auction?"
"Fellow Daoist, so far there’s no movent technique. We have a few books here."
"Shopkeeper, I want a Heavenly Rank Body Technique." It wasn’t worth coming here for sothing ordinary.
"We really don’t have that, but there might be an exchange eting after the auction where it might appear."
Tan Shaoting also knew this, but it was just a possibility.
"Shopkeeper, I have an item I’d like to consign at the auction, with the condition of getting a Heavenly Rank Body Technique."
After speaking, Tan Shaoting took out a Jade Box.
The shopkeeper took a look, and upon opening the Jade Box, all the incidental things disappeared instantly.
"Fellow Daoist, please wait while I invite our elder in charge of the auction."
Soon, the shopkeeper ca back in followed by a Golden Core Stage elder.
"Fellow Daoist, this is our Duobao Pavilion’s Elder Xing."
Tan Shaoting stood up and paid his respects. "Greetings, Elder Xing."
"There’s no need for formalities, young friend. I’d like to see your auction item."
Tan Shaoting handed over the Jade Box.
They confird, "No problem, it’s a Vermilion Fruit. Fellow Daoist, you want a Heavenly Rank Body Technique?"
Tan Shaoting nodded.
Last ti, we mistakenly entered the Demon Realm and picked this Vermilion Fruit. We couldn’t bear to use it, and at that ti we also realized our movent technique was too slow; nothing is more important than life, so we thought of trading the Vermilion Fruit.
Elder Xing nodded. Tan Shaoting’s words were believable, and he rembered the Vermilion Fruit was picked in the Demon Realm.
"Okay. Here’s the consignnt certificate. Young friend, wait for the auction. If there’s no Heavenly Rank Body Technique?"
"Then trade it for Five Elents Top-grade Spirit Stones, but I want five sets."
Once registered, Tan Shaoting left.
Elder Xing placed a prohibition seal on the Jade Box. "His information."
"A disciple of the Shushan Sect with three children. Joined after being a loose cultivator. He’s been to the secret realm in Four-direction City. Timing suggests he just ca back from the battlefield."
Elder Xing nodded. "Send a ssage to headquarters, have them find a Heavenly Rank Body Technique."
"Understood, Elder Xing."
Tan Shaoting knew they would investigate him, but it didn’t matter now as he and the children could withstand scrutiny.
"Mr. Tan," Sun Erniang called cautiously.
Tan Shaoting disliked this, so he continued walking without turning around.
Sun Erniang inadvertently saw him enter Duobao Pavilion today. It left her feeling uneasy. Everything he used and ate was of top quality; was this truly a male cultivator’s advantage? Why was her life so difficult?
Watching him leave indifferently, Sun Erniang gave a bitter smile at his back. It truly was the sa.
Was she still harboring illusions? In his eyes, was she already a nuisance?
Give up, there was no hope. She couldn’t enter his sight.
When Tan Shaoting returned from Duobao Pavilion, the four of them went on living their cloistered life, showing no interest in Salt City’s bronze ore.
After Qi Wen finished her cultivation, she rembered she had a servant beast.
"Master, thank goodness you rember ."
Qi Wen chuckled embarrassedly. She truly had forgotten.
"Master, there’s good stuff here." The little mouse’s round eyes sparkled even more brightly.
Qi Wen had no expectations for the so-called good stuff it ntioned.
"Master, it’s really, really good stuff."
"The good stuff you’re talking about is what you like to eat, right?"
"Yes, really, there’s copper crystal, it’s truly good stuff."
Qi Wen rolled her eyes. "Don’t even think about asking to take risks for you, if you want it, go yourself. We’re not going."
Xiao Huei scratched his head anxiously, looking at his master.
"Master, I’m just Fourth Rank."
"I’m only at the Third Level of Qi Cultivation."
Xiao Huei felt defeated, circling twice. "Master, master’s dad, copper crystal is really good stuff. Truly."
It didn’t really know what was so good about it, but it truly wanted to eat it.
"Salt City’s copper mine belongs to the City Lord Mansion, we can’t even get close. In the cultivation world, a Fourth Rank demon beast is already considered high-level, but here, there are Golden Core Stage cultivators."
Tan Shaoting’s words made Xiao Huei’s eyes light up again.
"Master, master’s dad, I’ll go out and see if I can get so copper crystal, I’ll give so to master."
Qi Wen watched it. "Alright. But rember, we have a Qi Contract, which ans if you die, I can still live, but if I die, you have to die."
Xiao Huei nodded vigorously. "I know, I know. Master, just wait here for . I definitely won’t take risks, but you have to send out."
