The abandoned cannon fodder girl's path to immortality

Chapter 168 Earth Spirit Golden Liquid
Everyone could probably guess Bu Xuanyin's purpose: to prepare for his future tribulation and elixir formation.

Since March, his constant search for a spiritual item in the market and within the sect has become common knowledge.

Among the disciples who returned from the cave, only a few were at the peak of the Qi Refining realm, but they might still possess extremely valuable spiritual items.

Therefore, he set the cultivation level of the participants in this trade fair at the late stage of Qi Refining, hoping to find some clues from his junior brothers and sisters who had traveled to the cave heaven.

"This is the Golden Flame Seal, a mid-grade second-tier spiritual weapon, a rare dual-attribute spiritual weapon of gold and fire! Junior brothers and sisters can exchange it for equivalent spiritual items and spirit stones!"

"This is the Purple Feather Umbrella, which is effective in both offense and defense..."

Bu Xuanyin introduced the spiritual objects and artifacts he displayed, without mentioning the spiritual objects he wanted to trade, as if he was doing it specifically to make things convenient for his junior brothers and sisters.

"Senior brother! Why doesn't Senior Brother Bu Xuanyin mention the spiritual item he wants? Is he simply looking to barter?"

Chen Jinshu asked, somewhat puzzled.

"Junior sister, you don't understand. Bu Xuanyin is a shrewd man. First, make a good impression, then mention the spiritual item you want. That way, there will be fewer negative comments about him."

"There's actually such a saying!"

Chen Jinshu could only sigh that she lacked social skills.

Not long after Bu Xuanyin finished introducing these spiritual items and artifacts, a Foundation Establishment cultivator proposed a transaction.

Bu Xuanyin accepted all spiritual items or stones of equal value, showing great kindness and generosity.

Soon, all the spiritual items and artifacts that Bu Xuanyin had displayed were traded.

“Senior brother is only one step away from the Golden Core realm. We have been searching for rare and precious materials, including the Earth Spirit Golden Liquid, for a long time, but have not found it. If any of you junior brothers or sisters have any information about this spiritual item, please feel free to share it. The reward I will give you will definitely not be low!” Bu Xuanyin said with a smile, his eyes were clear and his tone was humble.

Upon hearing the name "Earth Spirit Golden Liquid," Chen Jinshu immediately thought of the golden pool of water that he and his two senior brothers, Du Yi, had obtained in the Incense Burning Cave—it was indeed the Earth Spirit Golden Liquid.

She only learned this after asking her master, Shui Huanmeng. This item is a rare and precious natural treasure, which gathers the essence of the earth. It can not only change one's aptitude and improve one's cultivation, but can even allow one's golden core to advance further during tribulation.

It should be known that the Golden Core realm is divided into nine grades. Between the peak of Foundation Establishment and the Golden Core realm, there is a Pseudo-Core realm. However, the Pseudo-Core realm is a path chosen by those with poor aptitude and no hope for the future. Although their lifespan is two hundred years longer than that of Foundation Establishment cultivators, their cultivation level cannot advance any further.

The first three ranks of the Golden Core are merely entry-level, slightly better than the False Core realm, with a lifespan nearly a hundred years longer, but the chance of forming a Nascent Soul is slim. Each additional rank after the third increases the chances.

Of course, if one possesses rare and precious materials such as the Earth Spirit Golden Elixir, the Golden Elixir can be advanced to the next level.

Of course, this elixir is most effective when one is undergoing tribulation to form a pill.

Bu Xuanyin's goal was probably to advance his Golden Core grade further, in order to gain more opportunities for Nascent Soul formation in the future.

"What a pity! Those who know about such a spiritual object would not easily part with it."

Chen Jinshu only had two bottles left, and he gave the rest to Du Yi and the other two. After all, they were working together, and he couldn't keep them all to himself.

In addition, she had already washed away the impurities from her spiritual root in the Moon Washing Pool, so her cultivation speed was now no different from that of someone with a single spiritual root or a different spiritual root, or even slightly faster, because there were far fewer impurities in her body.

She plans to use half a bottle of this Earth Spirit Golden Elixir when breaking through to the Foundation Establishment stage, and the whole bottle when breaking through to the Golden Core stage. She also wants to increase her chances of forming a Nascent Soul stage.

Bu Xuanyin gazed at his fellow disciples for a long time, but ultimately no one stood up to make a deal.

Such spiritual objects are extremely rare.

"If you have any leads, you may contact me privately. I will reward you handsomely if you succeed!" Bu Xuanyin had no choice but to leave first.

"My name is Duan Chenliang. I want lightning-attribute refining spirit items or ready-made spirit weapons! The price is negotiable! These are talismans I drew, all of them are second-tier spirit talismans, ranging from low to high grade..." Soon, the trade fair was halfway through, with about thirty Foundation Establishment cultivators appearing, mostly in the mid-to-late stages.

After all, we should be ranked according to our cultivation level, that's a matter of etiquette.

Chen Jinshu looked at the dazzling array of spiritual items, but didn't see any that he wanted to trade.

"This is the blood of a Golden-feathered Demon Bird in the late Foundation Establishment stage! It can be used to refine second-tier superior talisman ink..."

At this moment, the demonic beast blood that the senior brother on the stage took out aroused her interest, but she had no desire to trade it.

Just then, a spiritual thought suddenly emanated from the Azure Phoenix Pendant at her waist, emanating from her sea of ​​consciousness.

"The blood of the Golden Feathered Demon Bird contains traces of Phoenix bloodline, which can enhance the bloodline of the Yinshan Sparrow."

Qingluan's voice was high-pitched, but it was much better than the previous days when it lacked strength.

Upon hearing this spiritual message, she stopped wasting words and directly sent a message expressing her desire to make a deal.

“Junior sister! This golden-feathered demon bird is not easy to hunt, and it has the blood of a late-stage Foundation Establishment cultivator, so it is quite valuable. If you have any mid-grade second-tier spirit pills or two mid-grade second-tier spirit herbs, we can trade them.”

Upon hearing this, Chen Jinshu immediately took out two mid-grade second-tier spiritual herbs, Golden Marrow Grass.

What she has no shortage of right now is spiritual herbs. Exchanging two mid-grade second-tier spiritual herbs for a bottle of Golden Feather Demon Bird blood is a slight loss, but she can still accept it.

Half an hour later, her fellow disciples made their own transactions and obtained many of the items they wanted.

Chen Jinshu then traded a second-tier spiritual fruit, the Golden Scale Fruit, from a senior brother.

This fruit can enhance physical defense after consumption, and is a common auxiliary spiritual fruit for body-tempering cultivators or those who cultivate physical strength.

Although her physical cultivation has reached the peak of Qi Refining, her physical defense is still lacking.

After reaching the Foundation Establishment stage, she plans to improve her cultivation level and strengthen her physique at the same time, since breaking through to the Golden Core stage requires undergoing a tribulation of lightning.

If your physical body is too weak, you might get struck by lightning and have your skin torn open, which is a terrible feeling.

She bought the fruit with the intention of cultivating it.

Currently, there is a space for spiritual plants, but it is not used much. The variety and quantity of spiritual plants are too few, and more high-quality ones need to be added.

She then traded many of the spiritual fruits and herbs she encountered.

An hour passed in the blink of an eye, and the trade fair came to an end.

"Junior Sister! Are you going to Master's courtyard to continue your secluded cultivation, or will you return to your own courtyard?" The eldest brother suddenly asked her as he was about to leave.

"Let's stay in our own courtyard. After all, Master is in seclusion. If people come and go, it will inevitably disturb his cultivation!" Chen Jinshu did not hesitate and directly chose his own courtyard.

"Alright! We'll all go back to our own courtyards."

"By the way! Junior Sister is currently at the ninth level of Qi Refining, and it's only three or four months away from the peak. If you want to establish your foundation, just let us know, and we'll protect you!"

"That's right! We must inform our junior sister when she reaches the Foundation Establishment stage!"

"Thank you, senior brothers and sisters! I plan to consider Foundation Establishment in six months. My cultivation has improved too quickly during this period, and I want to cultivate in seclusion for a while!"

"Then we'll wait for our junior sister's good news!"
