Chapter 971: Chapter 954: Registration_2 Chapter 971: Chapter 954: Registration_2 “Both.”
Li Zhirui still had so valuable items in his possession, especially the high-rank spiritual objects he had brought from the Profound Origin Realm, which he planned to sell here.
As a trading ga-city, selling spiritual objects here was no issue as no one would be tracked down amidst the daily traffic of millions of cultivators. The transaction volu was so vast—it was like finding a needle in the ocean!
Of course, none were spirit seeds!
Li Zhirui was not willing to easily sell the spirit seeds he had monopolized; at the very least, he wanted to trade them for seeds of even higher value, similar to the Alchemy Old Woman.
“Senior should wear this jade token.”
During the conversation, the man took out a purple jade token and said, “The jade token will record senior’s transaction history. Taxes will be levied based on this when leaving Immortal City.”
The Cave Abyss Sect took taxation very seriously because it involved substantial profits.
However, without their strong capability, it was best not to emulate such practices—it was simply unenforceable and could end up embarrassing them.
“Understood.” Li Zhirui responded, fastening the jade token to his waist and stepping into Immortal City.
True to its reputation as a comrce city, he was imdiately bombarded with myriad hawking voices upon entering, selling many spiritual objects that Li Zhirui had neither seen nor heard of.
At second glance, Li Zhirui saw a notice board listing several auction houses’ upcoming auction dates and various auction items.
It seed they had coordinated not to hold their auctions on the sa day to avoid splitting the crowd and both suffering as a result.
However, Li Zhirui was disappointed not to find the na “Myriad Spirits Scripture” among thousands of auctioned items.
He then entered the largest cultivation technique store.
“May I know what cultivation technique the guest needs?” The attendant asked enthusiastically.
“A complete version of the ‘Myriad Spirits Scripture,’ do you have it?”
“We do!”
The attendant gave an exciting reply, “But the price is quite steep. I’ll ask the shopkeeper to discuss it with you, please co this way.”
Li Zhirui was led into a chamber where two beautiful female cultivators were present; one played the zither while the other brewed tea, helping him to quickly relax.
“Do you want a complete version of the ‘Myriad Spirits Scripture’?”
Li Zhirui nodded and said, “To be used as a heritage cultivation technique, may I know the price?”
“Ten hundred million spirit stones.”
Upon hearing the price, Li Zhirui’s breath hitched, unsure how to respond.
In reality, a Great Vehicle Realm cultivation technique priced at ten hundred million was not considered excessively expensive; however, not only Li Zhirui, but even the entire Li family, if they emptied their coffers, could barely scrape together a tenth of those spirit stones.
It was the attendant ntioning the availability of the “Myriad Spirits Scripture” that had gotten him overly excited and caused him to forget about the price.
“Sorry, I don’t have that many spirit stones,” he said, preparing to stand up and leave.
However, the man chuckled and said, “Don’t be in such a hurry to leave, sir. Our Wanfa Pavilion can offer a loan service. Why not sit down and hear more?”
Li Zhirui’s mouth twitched; he had truly never thought about not being able to afford a cultivation technique and the seller offering a loan.
But mostly such offers were traps, so he firmly declined and directly left.
Since the elder skilled in divination had ntioned that the “Myriad Spirits Scripture” was not a rare cultivation technique, obtaining it shouldn’t be too difficult; there was no need to waste ti here.
Also, because of that astronomical price of ten hundred million, Li Zhirui had lost interest in inquiring in other shops; it was pointless as even if cheaper, it wouldn’t be by much.
So, he directly found an empty spot in the market alley and started selling spiritual objects.
Li Zhirui sold mostly spiritual dicine, spirit fruits, and precious pills; while the forr two attracted cultivators who inquired and bought them, precious pills scarcely drew any interest.
This was not surprising!
Because cultivators are always on high alert, they wouldn’t possibly buy a precious pill crafted by an unknown cultivator—there would be no one to find in case sothing went wrong.
In the mountains, Li Zhirui had made a na for himself and was popularly recognized, even frenziedly sought after, but in the Cave Abyss State, who was he? Absolutely no one had heard of him!
Yet, even selling spiritual objects had earned him quite a few spirit stones.
“The path of purchasing cultivation techniques seems to be impassable, I can only take on missions from the Cave Abyss Sect, earn contribution values, and then exchange them for subsequent techniques,” Li Zhirui calculated in his mind.
Due to the number of ten hundred million spirit stones, which was imnsely large, the Li family couldn’t gather that amount in a short period of ti; it might be better to explore how feasible exchanging contribution values was.
Every Immortal City had a mission hall built by the Cave Abyss Sect. Feeling that he had sold enough, Li Zhirui stood up and walked towards the central hall.
The hall was divided into two parts, one was the mission area, where tasks were received and fulfilled, and the other part was the exchange for spiritual objects.
Li Zhirui didn’t approach the mission area but just glanced from afar and figured out how much contribution value could be obtained after completing various tasks, muttering to himself, ‘Quite generous.’
However, as soon as he saw the exchange prices for various spiritual objects, Li Zhirui imdiately retracted his previous exclamation.
From the previous signs, it was clear that the Cave Abyss Sect was not a sect that valued loose cultivators. The fact that he had just marveled at their generosity was quite laughable.
“Excuse , how much contribution value is needed to exchange for the complete version of the ‘Myriad Spirits Scripture’ that can be cultivated up to the Great Vehicle Realm?” Li Zhirui casually asked an executor.
“One hundred million contribution values, most of the Great Vehicle Realm cultivation techniques are about the sa amount,” the person replied offhand.
Li Zhirui smiled faintly and began to calculate in his mind, a Lianxu Cultivator completing ordinary tasks could receive between one thousand and two thousand contribution values.
Suppose it was fifteen hundred, then it would roughly require completing over sixty thousand tasks to obtain one hundred million contribution values!
If he completed one task per day, it would still take about two hundred years!
But that was impossible. Under normal circumstances, it would roughly require a thousand years!
“No, that’s too long!” Li Zhirui frowned and rejected this plan in his mind.
A thousand years later, he would definitely have broken through to the Integration Realm, and for a long ti, he would be stuck without any cultivation technique.
There were two solutions: one was to find those tasks with high contribution values, and the other was to have other family mbers co and help.
Tasks with high contribution values were few and hotly contested—it wasn’t possible for him to always be the one to secure them, so it was more reliable to call other family mbers over to accumulate contribution values together.
In reality, there was another thod, a thod that might not cost Li Zhirui much at all, which was to acknowledge that he was the founder of the Lotus Seed Skill!
With the karma owed to him by the Cave Abyss Sect and given that there were thousands of spirit veins underground in the Cave Abyss State, which demon cultivators had only polluted at the fringe, but the dark filth had spread through all the veins!
So, the Cave Abyss Sect and other Immortal Dao forces in the East Continent were all indebted to Li Zhirui for his karma.
Regrettably, Li Zhirui was unaware of this.
“Could it really be that I have to make my entire family work diligently for the Cave Abyss Sect for hundreds of years just to exchange for a technique?”
After all, Li Zhirui was reluctant at heart because it would slow down his family’s and his own cultivation speed.
But the subsequent techniques of the “Myriad Spirits Scripture” were also very important!
Just as he was hesitating and conflicted, the Immortal City suddenly resounded with the hurried tolling of bells.
“An Illusionary Realm has appeared over the East Sea, requiring a large number of cultivators to enter and guide the realm to fall into the East Continent! Those interested may go to the mission hall to register!”
“Over the East Sea…”
This ssage rang out three tis in the Immortal City, more precisely, over the entire airspace of Cave Abyss State, alarming all cultivators.
While Li Zhirui was still bewildered, the cultivators originally in the mission hall all went crazy, rushing to the front to register.
Though he didn’t quite understand the implications of the Illusionary Realm and the term “guidance,” judging by their reactions, it was easy to discern that this was a trendous opportunity, so he followed the crowd to register as well.
