Dragon Devouring Cultivation

Chapter 53 Trading
When two figures floated directly in the air above Yunxi County without the aid of any magical weapon, the restless hearts of the people in Yunxi County were appeased.

The two foundation-building cultivators are enough to ensure the safety of Yunxi County, even if the city defense formation of Yunxi County has not been repaired yet.

Yunxi County recovered at an extremely fast speed. Stores reopened and schools notified students to return to classes.

Of course, the staff of various county departments cannot be replenished in a short period of time, and the selection of personnel for these departments is not an easy task.

However, this is not an unsolvable problem. Some matters have been postponed and a small number of staff have allowed these departments to barely function.

Li Zhen also received a notice from No. 2 Middle School and had to go to school the next day.

Taking advantage of not having to go to school today, he left home.

There are many monks maintaining order on the streets. Most of these monks are in the middle stage of Qi training, but the clothes they wear have the marks of the four major families.

On the contrary, security guards from the Security Bureau are rarely seen. It is said that the Security Bureau suffered heavy losses this time, and security guards are the main targets of the monsters.

Li Zhen walked into an open spiritual material store. As soon as he entered, he unexpectedly discovered that the store's intelligent system did not detect his identity bracelet.

Generally speaking, when entering a store, the store’s intelligent system will first scan the customer’s public identity to help the clerk better serve the customer.

When he entered the store, he saw a customer turning his head away in panic. Not wanting him to see his face, he turned sideways and left.

"Young man, what do you want to sell? Let's go to the private room next door to talk!" The clerk who received the customer turned to Li Zhen and asked.

"How do you know I have something to sell?" Li Zhen was stunned and asked in confusion.

He didn't say anything, and was it so obvious that he was here to sell something?

"Hehe, after all the chaos, there are always some people who take advantage of the situation to fish in troubled waters and gain benefits. Our store openly collects all kinds of spiritual objects, and we have collected quite a few today alone!" the clerk explained with a smile.

Li Zhen finally understood why this store did not turn on the intelligent system. Without identity detection, those spiritual objects of unknown origin in their hands could be used as an opportunity to attack.

"Then let's talk in a private room!" Li Zhen nodded.

After entering the private room, Li Zhen waved his hand to refuse the drink offered by the waiter. He took out two first-grade inferior magic weapons. These two first-grade inferior magic weapons were obtained from monks who died at the auction.

Although its origin is indeed unclear, it is not a big deal. Even if it is found on me, I can explain that I picked it up on the road.

"Young man, you're lucky. Two pieces are worth eight thousand credit points!" The clerk looked at the two first-grade low-quality magic weapons and gave a price with a smile.

Li Zhen thought to himself that it was really evil. Even if a first-grade inferior magic weapon was very bad, it would cost tens of thousands of credit points each. However, the other party only gave 8,000 credit points for these two first-grade inferior magic weapons.

"Sell it!" He nodded in agreement even though he knew he would suffer a loss.

"Don't think we're selling it at a low price. We've accepted your goods. Even if there are any problems with the goods, we'll take responsibility for them and it won't affect you!" the clerk said while paying.

Li Zhen checked the payment and found that the clerk used anonymous transfer, which was divided into multiple anonymous transfers. The credit points of each transfer did not exceed one thousand credit points.

Doing this can avoid credit point supervision, and the clerk can be said to have taken caution to the extreme.

His actions made Li Zhen feel more at ease, and he believed that other customers felt the same way. If they wanted to sell anything in the future, this store would be their first choice.

After coming out of the store, Li Zhen once again checked his deposit of 8104 credit points through his retina.

Even though he still had a large number of spiritual objects and spiritual stones in his hands, the impact of 8104 credit points was still not as strong as it was.

He didn't dare to sell those spiritual objects in large quantities. He was lucky today as he found a store that was willing to accept contraband goods.

He also understood that if he really dared to take out spiritual objects of excessive value, there was no way this store would ignore the rules and do something to him.

As the saying goes, a child holding gold in a busy city, he is truly a child holding gold in a busy city. If he is not careful, he will be doomed.

He entered another talisman shop. Compared with the talisman shop in another world, the talisman shop in Yunxi County of the Immortal Kingdom was also a small talisman shop, but the number of talismans was truly incomparable.

That is to say, there were no first-grade upper-grade talismans on display here. Even if there were, they were not for ordinary cultivators. Li Zhen bought a thousand blank first-grade lower-grade talisman papers, as well as the corresponding talisman inks for the fireball talisman, the diamond talisman, and the light body talisman. He also took a look at the first-grade lower-grade talisman pen. With his wealth, he didn't even need to consider it. He couldn't afford it.

The price of blank talisman paper in the fairyland is transparent. A piece of first-grade low-quality blank talisman paper is one credit point. The price of talisman ink is not high either. The total cost of talisman ink for drawing one thousand talismans is only two hundred credit points.

The reason why it is so cheap is that the Immortal Country has carried out large-scale production of this kind of low-level talisman paper and talisman ink.

In particular, the Immortal Kingdom's first-grade low-grade blank talisman paper has made a major breakthrough in raw materials. It can use the rice stalks of first-grade low-grade spiritual rice as raw materials, which is equivalent to waste utilization.

In fact, the biggest difficulty in becoming a talisman maker in the fairyland is not the talisman paper and ink, but the talisman pen.

Li Zhen had just taken a look. The talisman pens sold in this talisman shop adhered to the consistent principle of the fairyland in mass-producing magic tools, which was to use the least amount of spiritual materials to make them.

As a result, the talisman pen has become a consumable item in the fairyland, and is far from being as durable as the talisman pen in another world.

Carrying the talisman paper and ink, he returned home.

In the bedroom, he still announced his retreat through his smart housekeeper Mei Yun, but in fact he had gone to another world again.

Perhaps because he had practiced the 'Black Iron Body', he quickly woke up from the dizziness during this space teleportation.

He came out of the 'Small Inverted Five Elements Formation', opened the door and prepared to go to the spiritual field to take a look.

Just as he opened the door, he heard a popping sound, which was the sound of a spell exploding.

He couldn't help but be shocked. This was in the market town, how could there be a fight?

He closed the door a little and carefully observed the situation outside.

He found that there were no monks outside, and all the monks who usually liked to sit on the roadside were gone.

"All monks don't have to worry. There is no foreign invasion. The Lin family and the Iron Sword Gang are dealing with their dispute, and it will not affect other monks in the market!" A monk wearing a market guard robe drove a magic weapon into the air and kept announcing loudly.

This is to appease people's hearts. If the monks in the market are really made to feel unsafe, this market will be abandoned immediately.

The existence of the market town is, on the one hand, to facilitate transactions among monks, and on the other hand, to gather a group of monks.

The income brought by the monks' transactions is far less than the continuous income brought by gathering a group of monks to plant spiritual fields, draw talismans, refine magic tools and elixirs, etc. The core of gathering monks to stay in the market is safety.

After hearing the words of the market guards, Li Zhen's inner uneasiness was reduced a lot. As long as the market was not attacked by outsiders, the power struggle within the market would not have much impact.

What he didn't know was that the conflict between the Lin family and the Iron Sword Gang originated from him.

The old shopkeeper of Jubao Pavilion has disappeared. All suspicious monks have been investigated, but the murderer has not been found.

At this time, the Tiejian Gang opened a Juzhen Pavilion next to the Jubao Pavilion, obviously intending to steal the business.

Considering that the only way to get rid of the old shopkeeper silently in the market town was by several major forces in the market town, the actions of the Iron Sword Gang at this time almost made themselves the biggest suspect.

The simplest way to resolve conflicts between monastic forces is through fighting.

Winner takes all, loser gets kicked out.

More importantly, the Lin family and the Iron Sword Gang are both organizers of the market town. This fight between the two sides is no longer a competition between the Jubao Pavilion and the Juzhen Pavilion, but a matter of who stays in the market town and who leaves.

Li Zhen shook his head. He didn't want to be involved in the conflict between the two major forces in the market.

He spent nine spirit stones and didn't want to go back so soon.

He first practiced for three hours. After three hours of practice, his spiritual power increased by 0.3. However, the price was a bit high. One round trip cost him eighteen spirit stones, which only exchanged for 0.3 spiritual power. If he had not been thinking about the resources of this world, he would not have done this.
