Now reading: Chapter 162 - 113: Overnight Wealth, 5,000 Spirit Stones, Pu from Seeking Fortune and Avoiding Evil in the Cultivation World, a Xianxia novel by Thousand Lake Zhenren.

"It is said that a loose cultivator bought five Exorcism Talismans, turned around and sold them for fifty Spirit Stones, making a profit of a hundred Spirit Stones."

"That’s really enviable."

The Low Grade Alchemist Liang Bin was also filled with envy and resentnt, wishing such good fortune had co to him.

It’s said there are now plenty of loose cultivators at the black market.

So even linger at the entrance.

Hoping to catch a glimpse of that mysterious Talisman Master reereging.

Unfortunately, to this day, there seems to be no sign of the mysterious Talisman Master showing up again.

"What? A hundred Spirit Stones profit? That’s insane!"

"No way, I’m skipping the brothel today and camping at the black market."

"If that mysterious Talisman Master appears, I’ll be set for life."

The Low Grade Talisman Master Yao Luxian gritted his teeth determinedly.

Though the demonesses at the brothel were indeed unforgettable, one needs money for them to pay attention. Without money, one is just a beggar and they wouldn’t bother at all.

"Hehe, there are already countless people waiting at the black market, there’s no chance for you. That mysterious Talisman Master probably won’t show up again."

"Indeed, choosing not to sell at Cyan Forest Market and opting for the black market instead, they must avoid exposure, might even be a Tribulation Cultivator wanted by the Great Sun Sword Sect."

"You’re right, that person’s carefulness ans they’re unlikely to appear again with so many eyes on the black market now."

"Such a pity, such a profitable opportunity only ca once."

Many neighbors talked among themselves, each lanting missing the chance to earn money.

As unfortunate as it is, such a chance, once missed, never returns.

It can only be said they didn’t have that luck.

"Is there such a commotion?"

Jiang Fan was also secretly inquiring, and hearing this made him frown.

He didn’t expect that rely selling so Exorcism Talismans would cause such a stir.

For loose cultivators, forty-five hundred Spirit Stones must be an unimaginable astronomical figure.

Of course, to so families and sect disciples, this isn’t much.

"Seems I can’t visit the black market for a while."

Jiang Fan narrowed his eyes.

Undoubtedly, if he dared return to the black market, so would definitely keep an eye on him.

When the ti cos, shaking off trackers won’t be easy.

Such deals can only be made once, never a second ti.

This is the helplessness of the weak.

In the Cultivation Realm, if the weak earn too many Spirit Stones, it’s just courting death.

Of course, if he reached Late-stage Qi Cultivation or beca a Foundation Establishnt Cultivator, this amount of Spirit Stones wouldn’t be a concern.

No need to worry about other cultivators coveting them.

"Indeed, it’s a chance to enter Cyan Forest Market."

Thinking this, Jiang Fan realized it was a great ti, with most eyes on the black market, he could venture into Cyan Forest Market to buy elixirs and spiritual objects that enhance his cultivation.

This way, the danger he faces will be greatly reduced.

Without any hesitation, he concealed his aura, changed his appearance, and swiftly arrived at Cyan Forest Market.

Moreover, he had lived in the slum area for quite so ti.

He had a deep understanding of Cyan Forest Market.

So he headed directly to Hundred Pills Workshop.

This place sold various elixirs, Spirit dicines, and spiritual objects.

Countless loose cultivators yearned to spend lavishly there.

Unfortunately, the elixirs inside were far too expensive.

It wasn’t a place loose cultivators could afford.

Even pricier than the brothel.

"Fellow Daoist, what are you looking for?"

Kong Chang, the shopkeeper of Hundred Pills Workshop, brightened upon Jiang Fan’s arrival and greeted warmly.

After all, business at Hundred Pills Workshop had been declining.

Due to the demon invasion, many loose cultivators suffered heavy losses.

Many cultivators bought large quantities of magical artifacts, talismans, and various treasures for protection.

The demand for elixirs naturally decreased significantly.

Though elixirs indeed enhanced cultivation, loose cultivators preferred to buy life-saving treasures. If killed by demons, it’s ga over.

Further elixirs would be useless.

"Do you have any elixirs and spiritual objects suitable for mid-stage Qi Cultivation cultivators?"

"No need for White Ginseng Pill, I’ve used too much of this middle-grade elixir and developed a resistance."

Jiang Fan said in a deep voice.

Upon hearing this, shopkeeper Kong Chang felt quite thrilled, a big custor, undoubtedly a big custor.

Developing resistance to White Ginseng Pill.

If not a wealthy cultivator, it’s impossible to develop resistance.

He looked at Jiang Fan like a fat sheep.

"If that’s the case, I recomnd you purchase Spiritual Liquid."

"Spiritual Liquid is one of Heaven and Earth’s Wondrous Treasures, containing massive life essence."

"No matter how much you consu, there’s no resistance."

"Inner sect disciples and true disciples of so sects use Spiritual Liquid to enhance their cultivation."

Shopkeeper Kong Chang introduced with a smile.

"Spiritual Liquid? What’s the price?"

Jiang Fan curiously asked.

"It’s not very expensive."

"A drop of Spiritual Liquid costs three hundred Spirit Stones."

Shopkeeper Kong Chang said straight away.

What?!

Upon hearing this, Jiang Fan’s pupils contracted, shocked, seeing the sly shopkeeper’s deanor, he understood Spiritual Liquid was indeed expensive.

But he hadn’t anticipated a drop costing three hundred Spirit Stones.

Such a price was truly exaggerated.

A bottle of middle-grade elixir didn’t cost this much.

Only wealthy cultivators could afford it.

"Fellow Daoist, do you think Spiritual Liquid is expensive?"

"Expensive as it is, rarity adds to value."

"Compared to elixirs, Spiritual Liquid has no resistance."

"Consu as much as you wish to rapidly boost your cultivation."

"Even consuming large amounts yields Washing Marrow and Cutting ridians effect."

"If it weren’t so expensive, I’d want to take Spiritual Liquid daily."

Shopkeeper Kong Chang couldn’t help but sigh.

Although a Seventh-Layer Qi Cultivation cultivator, even he couldn’t afford Spiritual Liquid.

Not that he couldn’t buy it.

Simply, when compared to upper-grade elixirs, the cost-effectiveness wasn’t particularly high.

Regular elixirs certainly contained elixir poison, but poor cultivators didn’t worry about such things.

Upon hearing this, Jiang Fan couldn’t help but nod. If Spiritual Liquid’s effects were truly remarkable, three hundred Spirit Stones per drop wasn’t entirely unacceptable.

"Alright, since that’s the case, I’ll take five drops of Spiritual Liquid."

Jiang Fan said firmly, making his decision instantly.

Five drops of Spiritual Liquid amounted to fifteen hundred Spirit Stones.

For loose cultivators, that was indeed a hefty sum.

But for shopkeeper Kong Chang, it wasn’t significant.

As a disciple of the Great Sun Sword Sect, he had seen far more Spirit Stones, rendering this trivial.

"Fellow Daoist, that’s magnanimous."

"Let prepare the Spiritual Liquid for you."

Upon hearing this, shopkeeper Kong Chang laughed heartily, unsurprised, perhaps accustod to affluent cultivators, unlike slum area loose cultivators, remaining as calm and composed.

He instructed his subordinates directly, fetching five jade bottles.

Each jade bottle contained one drop of Spiritual Liquid.

This exemplified how precious Spiritual Liquid truly was as a spiritual object.

"Hm."

Jiang Fan didn’t waste words, producing fifteen hundred Spirit Stones directly from his body.

Transaction completed.

Soon, he placed five jade bottles into his storage bag and swiftly left.

"Hm? Not being tailed?"

After leaving Cyan Forest Market, Jiang Fan noticed he wasn’t being followed.

Initially, he expected spending fifteen hundred Spirit Stones might attract Tribulation Cultivators.

Even shopkeeper Kong Chang might kill for treasures, seizing the chance for robbery.

But now it seems Hundred Pills Workshop’s cultivators were more magnanimous than imagined.

This might be why Cyan Forest Market had a century-long flawless reputation.

Or perhaps, to the Great Sun Sword Sect, loose cultivator Spirit Stones were insignificant.

Completely beneath their notice.

Simply conducting honest business was absolutely profitable enough, no need for risky behavior.

Nonetheless, Jiang Fan didn’t plan on returning quickly.

One must maintain vigilance.

In any case, carefulness allows survival in the perilous Cultivation Realm.

He left the slum area directly, plunged into the Ten Thousand Beasts Mountain Range, hiding in a certain cave.

Until nightfall, he returned to the slum area at Cyan Forest Market.

By then, no one noticed he had entered Cyan Forest Market.
