Chapter 971: Chapter 515 Five Poison Mountain Chapter 971: Chapter 515 Five Poison Mountain Yuquan Market.
At this mont, walking on the bustling streets, Lin Tianming looked around.
After observing for a while, he couldn’t help but sigh.
Yuquan Market truly lived up to its famous reputation. Not to ntion the crowd, just the proportion of Foundation Establishnt Cultivators was noticeably higher than so of the dium-sized markets he had visited.
After all, with his cultivation at the Eighth Level of Foundation Establishnt, if he were in Qianchuan Market, he would definitely be among the ones with the highest cultivation.
Generally speaking, except for those from the Golden Core Forces, it was rare to see many Foundation Establishnt Late-Stage Cultivators in Qianchuan Market.
Yet in Yuquan Market, he easily spotted seven or eight Foundation Establishnt Late-Stage Cultivators, including one at the Ninth Level of Foundation Establishnt.
...
In this vein, the cultivation he revealed now didn’t attract much attention here, as if those Qi Refining Stage Cultivators were used to seeing cultivators like him.
To this, Lin Tianming felt rather pleased, considering how, back when he was in the Foundation Establishnt Stage, revealing himself in Qianchuan Market always drew considerable attention.
Among those people were admirers, acquaintances, and so with ulterior motives.
Wandering the world as a Loose Cultivator now, neither too high nor too low in cultivation, nobody knew of his origins.
Such an identity allowed him to act without much concern, giving him a sense of freshness.
Perhaps this was what it felt like to be free and unattached!
Lin Tianming thought to himself, his mood involuntarily improving quite a bit.
After strolling around for a while, Lin Tianming followed the crowd to a large-scale shop district.
Looking around, there were fewer shops here than in the outskirts, but each shop was reasonably sized and elegantly decorated, with a continuous stream of cultivators coming and going.
Obviously, the shops here were established brands, with a long history, and the forces behind them were undoubtedly strong.
Amidst these, Lin Tianming spotted so familiar shop nas, such as the Sky Dragon Pavilion run by the Tang Family of Qingzhou, which also had a branch here.
With curiosity, Lin Tianming started to wander from the nearest shop.
After half a day, Lin Tianming had visited more than ten shops, seeing sorts of treasures that were almost enough for any cultivator below the Golden Core Stage.
He wasn’t particularly interested in these items.
However, when he encountered so novel items, he would buy them, including so First and Second Order pill formulas, and so specialties from Huangyang Kingdom.
Yet, he still found no news about high-order formulas or the Dry Jade Grass.
Fortunately, Lin Tianming was prepared; after all, the Dry Jade Pill was a Third Order formula and an ancient pill formula that had not been heard of in Wei Kingdom for a long ti.
The Dry Jade Grass, as its main component, being a Third Order treasure, was an extrely rare item, and it might even have completely disappeared, which wouldn’t be surprising.
And during the past few months, his experience searching through various markets of different sizes had already hinted at this, with no news found anywhere.
He knew very well that just searching for a while, if it were to be found so easily, that would be strange.
Thus, Lin Tianming was not discouraged, as his stay in Huangyang Kingdom was, after all, an exploratory endeavour.
If he could find the Dry Jade Grass or an alternative, that would be best. If not, he would have to think of another way.
At this mont, Lin Tianming felt quite detached as he looked up at Sky Dragon Pavilion and then walked inside.
As he entered, a Late Stage Qi Refining Cultivator ca up to greet him.
This cultivator was quite alert and respectful, quickly approaching to serve him.
“Junior Sun Hao, welco, senior, to our shop!”
Lin Tianming waved his hand and then directly asked, “Is the manager of this shop available?”
Hearing this, Sun Hao assud Lin Tianming was an old acquaintance of the manager, so he didn’t dare delay, lest he not serve well and lose this decent job.
“Since senior is visiting the manager, please follow to the guest room to wait for a mont, I’ll go and inform imdiately.”
Sun Hao respectfully responded and led Lin Tianming up to the second floor to a guest room.
After serving Spiritual Tea, Sun Hao excused himself and left.
Soon, a middle-aged Cultivator walked into the guest room.
Seeing the yellow Daoist robe and the embroidery on the chest, which was the emblem of the Tang Family of Qingzhou, identical to Tang Xiuyuan from Qianchuan Market’s Sky Dragon Pavilion.
Obviously, this person was also a mber of the Tang Family, with a cultivation and status similar to Tang Xiuyuan’s, also at the Foundation Establishnt Great Perfection Realm.
However, this person’s ability to be stationed in the popular Yuquan Market suggested that his status within the vast Tang Family might be just a little higher than Tang Xiuyuan’s.
Considering the Tang Family’s hierarchy, where family mbers run into tens of thousands.
In such a large clan, the internal rules were definitely strict, and competition among ordinary family mbers was fierce.
In the Qi Refining Stage, it was manageable, and reaching Foundation Establishnt with a bit of talent and effort wasn’t too hard.
But at the level of Foundation Establishnt Late Stage, advancing a major step into the Golden Core Stage, even for mbers of the Tang Family of Qingzhou, wasn’t as easy as one might imagine.
