"Alright!"
Hearing Deng Yanshi’s words, Li Yunjing remained expressionless, but still nodded in agreent.
They say there’s profit in checking accounts. Will Deng Yanshi give him a hint to explore the market?
Besides, Li Yunjing really wanted to visit the market of the "Myriad Swords Sect".
Previously, the markets Li Yunjing had visited all belonged to the "Shenxiao Dao Sect".
This market of the "Myriad Swords Sect" is established by a mid-sized sect and may have different pricing systems and specialties.
The unfamiliar market indeed piqued Li Yunjing’s interest; he wanted to see if he could find so treasures and clear out so of his inventory.
"Hahaha! Brother Li, please follow !"
Hearing Li Yunjing agree, Deng Yanshi was overjoyed and quickened his pace.
The two walked across a long street, and from afar, they heard the cries of vendors from the market’s street.
In the cultivation realm, the lowest level of loose cultivators is vast in numbers.
These loose cultivators have low individual spending power, but their enormous numbers make up for it, so many markets have a large number of loose cultivators trying to make a living.
The market managers also welco these loose cultivators to live in the market.
Whether it’s the expenses for cultivation and survival or generating a lively atmosphere, loose cultivators are an indispensable part of the market.
Without a lively crowd, it would be deserted, and the market would soon collapse.
Like other markets, on the "Myriad Swords Sect" territory, these loose cultivators also have certain rights.
In the market, loose cultivators are allowed to set up stalls and do small businesses to make a living.
This is the welfare that the "Myriad Swords Sect" provides to loose cultivators.
"Brother Li, this place can actually be considered an urban market. Almost all common materials from the cultivation realm can be bought here."
Deng Yanshi led the way, bringing Li Yunjing into the market street, pointing around, and said: "This market has been established by our ’Myriad Swords Sect’ for three hundred years. From nothing to sothing, more and more people have co, including many loose cultivators settling here with their families. This led to the current situation of ’Myriad Swords City’."
Li Yunjing nodded slightly. Three hundred years witnessing the establishnt of a city of immortals and mortals indeed gave a sense of the passage of ti and great changes.
"By the way! Recently, a shop nad ’Treasure Pavilion’ in the market is going to hold a small trade fair, specifically for high-tier loose cultivators. So rare spiritual materials might appear. Brother Li, if you have ti, you can take a look."
As Deng Yanshi spoke, he led Li Yunjing to the stall area.
"Okay! When the ti cos, Brother Deng, help get a qualification."
Li Yunjing nodded and said.
He was very interested in such a trade fair for high-tier Qi cultivation realm cultivators.
At this mont, the stall area was already crowded with people.
Many cultivators were browsing the various stalls, looking for suitable items for themselves.
Li Yunjing’s gaze quickly focused on the largest stall crowd.
"Let’s go! Take a look!"
Driven by curiosity, Li Yunjing wanted to see what good items were attracting so many people there.
Even the local Deng Yanshi showed a curious expression.
It was apparent that such a scene was rare for him too.
"Celestial Thunder Stone for sale! High price! Those with the ans, co inquire!"
As Li Yunjing and the others approached the outer circle, a voice ca from inside.
Li Yunjing’s expression changed slightly, and his divine sense swept towards the source of the voice.
Using his divine sense, he saw a stall owner inside the circle wearing a bamboo hat, dressed in a black robe, with no distinguishing features, hiding himself thoroughly.
The voice calling out was from this person.
Li Yunjing could understand the person’s attire. After all, bringing out a valuable item like the "Celestial Thunder Stone" and not revealing his true identity was a matter of safety.
"High price? How high? Tell us and let’s see?"
A middle-aged loose cultivator in the crowd seed interested and asked.
"5000 low grade spirit stones!"
The stall owner’s voice was sharp, seemingly deliberately altered.
"Hiss..."
People around took a sharp breath, their eyes imdiately turning red as they looked at the fist-sized "Celestial Thunder Stone" on the stall.
Were it not for the fact that they were in a market under the protection of the "Myriad Swords Sect," so loose cultivators among them would have had the thought of killing for the treasure.
Even so, so still showed unwillingness, glaring at the stall owner, trying to see through his bamboo hat and recognize his face.
"Let take a look!"
Li Yunjing stepped forward, taking a serious look at the items on the stall.
His gaze stayed on the stone emitting blue electric arcs. As for the other items, Li Yunjing glanced over them and found them ordinary, not worth his attention.
"Celestial Thunder Stone" is rare. It can be used to refine top-grade magical artifacts and even spiritual artifacts. It’s also highly beneficial to Thunder Spirit Root cultivators or those who practice Thunder Skills.
This was especially important to Li Yunjing.
The factors for the birth of a "Celestial Thunder Stone" are nurous, often found in areas with strong magnetic fields or after enduring countless thunder strikes without breaking.
Only over long periods could such a stone evolve.
No matter the birth thod, "Celestial Thunder Stone" is an extrely rare material.
In the "Shenxiao Dao Sect," there were rumors of a Thunder Nurturing Pool with countless "Celestial Thunder Stones" specifically for high-ranking figures to use for cultivation.
Unfortunately, given Li Yunjing’s low status, he couldn’t get even one stone from the Thunder Nurturing Pool teeming with "Celestial Thunder Stones."
Not just Li Yunjing, even the sect stewards couldn’t use them extensively.
Only those of elder status could be periodically allocated so.
Li Yunjing naturally did not want to give up this "Celestial Thunder Stone" before him.
In his hands, the stone would be far more effective than in others’.
"Make way! Make way!"
Seeing Li Yunjing’s interest, Deng Yanshi quickly pushed away the surrounding people, preventing others from approaching the honored guest from the Shenxiao Dao Sect.
Only then did he stand beside Li Yunjing, assisting, "Stall owner, your price is sowhat high."
The surrounding people, seeing the emblem of the "Myriad Swords Sect" on Deng Yanshi’s waist, all stepped back a bit, making way for the stall owner.
Here, the "Myriad Swords Sect" was the ruler.
With a steward of the "Myriad Swords Sect" present, these loose cultivators naturally dared not be rash.
"Hmm?"
Seeing Deng Yanshi and the young man in the blue Daoist robe, the stall owner’s face under the bamboo hat turned pale.
He had received a major news recently; at the "Treasure Pavilion" trade fair, there was an item he urgently needed.
To acquire that item, he needed a large amount of spirit stones.
Thus, he took out his treasure to trade.
The stall owner anticipated the risks but couldn’t care less at this point.
Market shops offered only 3500 low grade spirit stones, far below his need.
Left with no choice, he decided to set up a stall and try his luck.
Unexpectedly, just shortly after setting up, he encountered people from the "Myriad Swords Sect."
Though the "Myriad Swords Sect" was known for their integrity and the market was relatively safe and fair, the stall owner still felt anxious.
After all, what he brought out was extrely valuable.
"No need! It costs what it costs!"
Seeing the stall owner’s worry, Li Yunjing waved his hand, rejecting Deng Yanshi’s bargaining attempt.
He nodded at the stall owner, indicating not to worry and to just follow the market price. For now, Li Yunjing had the money and was willing to pay it.
He preferred fair transactions. With resources, he disdained underhanded tactics.
As long as the item’s quality was genuine, Li Yunjing would not engage in nefarious deeds.
Li Yunjing prided himself on being righteous.
Such a person wouldn’t act against his conscience.
Deng Yanshi, seeing this, shook his head slightly and couldn’t help but speculate.
Could an outer disciple of the "Shenxiao Dao Sect" be this wealthy?
low grade spirit stones was a sky-high price. Many Qi cultivation realm cultivators, even nearing two hundred years, might not have so many spirit stones.
So cultivators’ storage bags rarely held more than 100 spirit stones.
Cultivators earned much but spent even more.
Soone like Li Yunjing casually ntioning 5000 low grade spirit stones without concern was indeed rare in "Myriad Swords City."
Deng Yanshi himself had about 2000 spirit stones, thanks to his position as a steward in the "Myriad Swords Sect," which provided substantial benefits.
Among the crowd, several loose cultivators were surprised and began whispering among themselves.
"Hey! Do you know anything? That’s soone from the ’Shenxiao Dao Sect’!"
Soone boasted their knowledge, though the last sentence was said quietly, clearly to avoid displeasing Li Yunjing.
"Hiss..."
The crowd, suddenly enlightened, understood.
No wonder the young man seed so wealthy.
He was a disciple of the "Shenxiao Dao Sect," making it unsurprising.
In the cultivation realm, especially under the Great Ming Dynasty’s domain, the "Shenxiao Dao Sect" was at its peak, renowned.
The wealth and power of the "Shenxiao Dao Sect" were well known throughout the Great Ming Cultivation Realm.
For Li Yunjing to produce 5000 low grade spirit stones seed reasonable to them.
What they didn’t realize was that normal outer disciples of the "Shenxiao Dao Sect" didn’t possess such wealth!
Even many inner sect disciples couldn’t easily co up with that many low grade spirit stones.
Possibly only by borrowing, selling assets, or other ans could they gather 5000 spirit stones quickly.
Many were envious of Li Yunjing.
Still, none dared harbor ill intent!
Many in the "Myriad Swords Sect" territory knew that the "Shenxiao Dao Sect" was currently auditing accounts.
The "Shenxiao Dao Sect" had sent nurous powerful figures. If anyone dared target Li Yunjing...
They wouldn’t know how they died!
However, while targeting Li Yunjing was out of the question, the stall owner was fair ga!
After the transaction, the stall owner would have 5000 low grade spirit stones!
Killing him would make the fortune theirs!
Many were breathing heavily, their eyes fixed on the stall owner.
Fearful of missing their chance to catch him.
"Daoist friend, 5000 spirit stones, money first, goods later!"
Li Yunjing’s attitude brought a smile to the stall owner’s face, joy evident in his voice.
"Alright! You count it!"
Li Yunjing raised his eyelids slightly, flung his wrist, and a storage bag flew towards the stall owner.
Li Yunjing had many items, categorized long ago, and this storage bag contained exactly 5000 spirit stones, saving him the trouble of counting.
Deng Yanshi, watching, was astonished. Li Yunjing was indeed wealthy, casually tossing 5000 spirit stones without blinking.
Such boldness was unheard of!
In the "Myriad Swords Sect," even below the Foundation Establishnt level, no one displayed such audacity!
Not even the sons or grandsons of the Sect Leader and elders had such boldness!
The surrounding crowd was also stunned. Saying and doing are different.
The previous shock was far less than the impact of Li Yunjing throwing out a storage bag full of spirit stones!
