Xiuxian, I can travel to another world

Chapter 325 Procurement
half year later.

A figure appeared near the Tianyu Sect's headquarters.

The news that the Tianyu Sect was about to close its mountain had already spread throughout the Immortal Alliance, and there were those who felt regret, envy, confusion, and anger.

But that doesn't change anything.

The closure of the mountain is a foregone conclusion.

With the mountain now closed, the Tianyu Sect will no longer be able to obtain resources from the outside world. Therefore, they are holding a special trade fair to bring out their collections of various materials to exchange for what they will need after the mountain is closed.

It is said.

In this transaction, the Tianyu Sect will provide a magical artifact.

Spiritual artifacts are above magical treasures and are also known as innate spiritual artifacts. They contain a wisp of primordial energy from the beginning of the world, and are powerful and mysterious. They are usually controlled by Nascent Soul cultivators.

There are only a handful of magical artifacts in the world, and each one is renowned.

This news immediately caused a stir throughout the entire Immortal Alliance.

of course.

Among the righteous immortal sects, there are only two or three that can afford and safeguard innate spiritual artifacts.

Other forces, even if they had the money, wouldn't dare to do it; otherwise, it would be like a child carrying gold into a bustling city, only attracting the covetousness of others.

However, besides magical artifacts, the Tianyu Sect also offers some top-tier secret techniques and pills that can help Golden Core Grandmasters improve their cultivation and greatly extend a cultivator's lifespan.

These are also good things.

Over the past six months, all the major righteous immortal sects have received messages from the Tianyu Sect and have been given tokens for the trade fair.

Mingxu Zong was no exception.

However, Pei Jingque did not come this time.

She wanted to come.

Unfortunately, I have no money!

As the number of disciples in the sect increases, so do the expenses, and Mingxu Sect remains strapped for cash.

The sect has some reserve spirit stones, but not many.

It should not be used lightly.

"Shh!"

The light stopped in mid-air, and Zhu Ju threw out a token, causing ripples to appear in the air in front of him.

His eyes flickered slightly, he hesitated for a moment, and then slowly stepped inside.

Space is distorted and shaken.

When Zhu Ju came to his senses, he found himself in a valley filled with birdsong, fragrant flowers, and bustling crowds.

"Space formation..."

“It’s really mysterious!”

"Fellow Daoist," a Foundation Establishment cultivator dressed in the robes of the Tianyu Sect greeted them with a charming smile.
"Could it be Fellow Daoist Zhu from the Mingxu Sect?"

"My name is Xiao Menglu. I have been entrusted by my senior brother Lu Dingwang to wait here to guide you, fellow Daoist."

Xiao Menglu has a delicate and pretty appearance, like a fifteen or sixteen-year-old girl, but she is already at the mid-stage of the Foundation Establishment realm.

can only say.

As expected of the Tianyu Sect, the second-ranked righteous immortal sect, even a random person from it is so exceptionally talented.

"Fellow Daoist Xiao." Zhu Ju bowed.
"Fellow Daoist Lu is not here?"

"He's in charge of the sect's mountain closure matters; he's not here." Xiao Menglu shook her head and gestured:
"Fellow Taoist, please!"

"This place is called Panlong Valley, which can be considered a secret realm. There is absolutely no need to worry about safety."

"The north side of the valley is where you visiting fellow Daoists will stay, while other areas are occupied by various shops. In about half a month, there will be a seven-day auction where all of our sect's secret treasures will be auctioned. Of course, you fellow Daoists may also trade among yourselves..."

She led Zhu Ju to a manor:
"Fellow Daoist, you may stay here for the time being until the trade fair ends or you leave early."

"Thank you for your trouble!" Zhu Ju cupped his hands and asked:

"Does the Tianyu Sect sell Foundation Establishment Pills?"

"Of course!"

Xiao Menglu nodded:
"However, this time the Foundation Establishment Pills are not sold individually, but by batch, with thirty Foundation Establishment Pills per batch."

Thirty pieces?
Zhu Ju looked surprised.

…………

"Knock knock..."

There was a knock on the door.

"Enter!"

The wooden door opened, and an elderly man with white hair came into view.

Zhu Ju shifted his feet slightly, a hint of surprise flashing in his eyes, before stepping inside and bowing respectfully:

"senior."

The old man before us was none other than a Golden Core Grandmaster!
Zhu Ju had cultivated for over a hundred years, and aside from having just missed out on the Demonic Golden Core stage, this was the first time he had come so close to a Golden Core Grandmaster.

"Ah."

The old man stroked his beard gently and spoke slowly:
"I am Fang Zhong, an elder of the Mingxu Sect's pill workshop, and I am in charge of a portion of the pill sales this time."

"How should I address you, young friend?"

Fang Zhong was dressed in a pure white robe, exuding an ethereal and transcendent aura, and his gaze was quite gentle.

Just like the kind old man next door.

However, the aura emanating from him was as deep as the abyss, vast and boundless, suggesting that he was not only a Golden Core Grandmaster, but also a powerful figure among Golden Core Grandmasters.

"Junior Zhu Ju."

Zhu Ju bowed:

"Disciple of Mingxu Sect."

"The Mingxu Sect?" Fang Zhong nodded slowly, his voice becoming increasingly gentle:

"The remnants of the Jade Void Sect, in fact, part of the Tianyu Sect's alchemy workshop's heritage also comes from the Jade Void Sect."

"It seems we are destined to meet!"

"Yes." Zhu Juying replied:
"I have heard that the Jade Void Sect is flourishing in alchemy, but unfortunately the Bright Void Sect has not inherited it."

"senior."

"I plan to buy a batch of Foundation Establishment Pills."

"Foundation Building Pill." Fang Zhong nodded.
"No problem. You should know the price, right? I'm selling on behalf of the sect, so there's no bargaining."

"I know." Zhu Ju took off his storage bag, thought for a moment, and then asked:
"Senior, do you have any elixirs here that can aid cultivators at the Foundation Establishment stage?"

"Yes, but not many," Fang Zhong said slowly.
"The Tianyu Sect's closure of its mountain this time will last for a hundred years or even a thousand years. We need to prepare various supplies, with elixirs being the most important."

"If you want to trade, it's best to exchange it for spiritual herbs, spiritual plants, or seeds, as that would be more cost-effective."

"Spirit stones and spirit materials are next..."

“Magic artifacts and magical treasures are the worst.”

Zhu Ju suddenly realized.

The Tianyu Sect is going to close its mountain and head to other worlds where there are few rivals, so they naturally won't need magical artifacts or treasures.

Spiritual herbs and plants are crucial for the cultivation of younger disciples, so they need to be purchased in large quantities, and naturally, not many are sold to outsiders. "Thank you for your guidance, senior."

"Hehe..." Fang Zhong chuckled lightly.
"You would understand even if I didn't say it."

"I have several kinds of pills that can help cultivators at the Foundation stage of cultivation. Among them, the Golden Crow Pill and the Seven Spirits Path to Enlightenment Pill, which are made from thousand-year-old spiritual herbs, are the best. Each pill is priced at thirty mid-grade spirit stones."

Thirty mid-grade spirit stones?
Zhu Ju's expression changed slightly.

"There's no way around it; thousand-year-old spiritual herbs are rare, so the pills refined from them are naturally expensive," Fang Zhong said, observing the situation.

"If you have any thousand-year-old spiritual herbs, I can also refine them for you for a fee. I am a third-level alchemist, and my success rate in refining second-level pills is over 90%, which is much better than what you can find elsewhere."

Ok?
Zhu Ju looked up, his face showing surprise:
"Senior, aren't you going to that secret realm?"

Refining elixirs takes anywhere from a few days to several years, and even thousand-year-old elixirs require at least a month.

Since I've taken on the task of refining medicine, I'll definitely miss the time when the mountain is closed.

"I have lived for over eight hundred years and my days are numbered. I do not wish to die in a strange place."

Fang Zhong laughed and said:

"Besides..."

“There must always be some people who stay behind to take care of the descendants who cannot leave, and I am one of them.”

Over 800 years old!

The Golden Elixir Master lived to be eight hundred years old.

If one takes longevity pills or practices certain secret methods to extend lifespan, one can theoretically live to be a thousand years old.

Therefore, Fang Zhong's days are indeed numbered.

soon.

Zhu Ju took the Foundation Establishment Pill and bid farewell before leaving.

Watching his figure disappear from sight, Fang Zhong slowly withdrew his gaze, a faint smile appearing on his face.

"A mid-stage Foundation Establishment cultivator, yet possessing the divine soul power of a late-stage Foundation Establishment cultivator and the physical body of a perfect Foundation Establishment cultivator..."

"It seems that in a few years, the Righteous Immortal Alliance will produce another Golden Core Grandmaster."

"Golden Core..."

"Ugh!"

After laughing, he sighed again:

"The demonic path is too powerful. Even if there is one more Golden Core Grandmaster, what difference will it make?"

*
*
*
As time went by, more and more people came to the trade fair, and all sorts of magical items appeared one after another.

What were once extremely rare, millennia-old medicinal herbs have become commonplace goods here.

Almost everywhere you look, there are cultivators at the Foundation Establishment stage, and you can occasionally sense the aura of a few Golden Core Grandmasters.

Ordinary people probably wouldn't see so many Dao Foundation and Golden Core cultivators in their entire lives.

This day.

A paper dove drifted down to the window, and Zhu Ju unfolded it. His eyes lit up when he saw what was on it.

A wooden house somewhere.

Xiong Chu of the Tianyu Sect sat on a stone chair, looking at the mysterious man in black robes in front of him.

A hint of doubt appeared in his eyes, but he still spoke politely:
"Fellow Daoist, you wish to purchase an array formation?"

"Not bad." Zhu Ju nodded.
"I've heard that you possess a third-tier Twelve Heavenly Star Array?"

“It’s a third-tier damaged item.” Xiong Chu shook his head upon hearing this, and took out a jade slip from his person and threw it over:

"Don't say that Xiong is lying to you. Take a good look before you talk."

"Snapped!"

Zhu Ju reached out and took the jade slip, scanning it with his divine sense. His eyes, hidden by his black robe, flickered slightly.

"incomplete……"

"There are too many missing."

"Not bad." Xiong Chu nodded.
"It's true that the Twelve Heavenly Stars Formation is a third-tier formation, but the one I have is incomplete. At most, it can unleash the power of a mid-tier second-tier formation, and it has very strict requirements for the environment in which it's set up. That's why it's so cheap..."

"Fellow Daoist Xiong." Zhu Ju stroked his chin.

"Can the formation be repaired?"

"Of course." Xiong Chu nodded.
“If you really want to buy it, I can give you the complete diagram of the Twelve Heavenly Star Array, and even list out all the missing materials for you, but the price will be higher.”

"Of course." Zhu Ju looked satisfied and casually asked:

"Fellow Daoist, was this formation destroyed by the Six Paths Demon Lord?"

"..." Xiong Chu's expression darkened, and after a pause, he said:
"Yes."

"The self-destruction of the Nascent Soul by the Miaoyan Ancestor and the rampage of the Six Paths Demon Lords have severely damaged the sect's formations. In addition, since we are going to seal off the mountain, the incomplete formations have been dug out and packaged for sale."

"If you are truly interested in buying, the price is negotiable."

Zhu Ju understood clearly.

He then took out a pair of flying swords from his person.

"The Yin-Yang Twin Swords!"

Xiong Chu's eyes lit up:
"Good baby!"

Flying swords with Yin and Yang attributes are rare and incredibly powerful. Each of the two swords is a magic weapon on its own, and together they are almost comparable to a mid-grade magic weapon.

but……

"The product is good!"

Xiong Chu sighed:

"Unfortunately, none of the people I know have any lineage of Yin-Yang cultivation, and they are still somewhat lacking in the ability to change formations."

Magical treasures may be powerful, but they can never compare to formations.

Zhu Ju thought for a moment, then took out another bracelet.

"The Five Elements Bracelet?"

Xiong Chu raised an eyebrow and lingered on Zhu Ju for a moment:
"A demonic artifact?"

He had some doubts about whether the person in front of him was a demonic cultivator.

After all, formations are different from other resources. After the transaction, there are many steps such as setting up and adjusting the formation. It is not a simple transaction.

Not showing up
What should we do next?
Moreover, the items Zhu Ju took out were all unique magical treasures of the Yin-Yang lineage of the Hehuan Sect.

As the thought crossed his mind, he subconsciously touched his chin, a strange light flashing in his eyes.

"Those belonging to Yin and Yang, and the Five Elements, can be refined and controlled by both the righteous and demonic paths," Zhu Ju said slowly.
"Even if you don't need it, someone else will. It won't make a difference, right?"

“…Yes.” Xiong Chu pondered for a moment and slowly nodded.

"make a deal!"

…………

After Zhu Ju left, Xiong Chu chuckled and took out a jade talisman from his body, gently gesturing with it.

"Brother Hong, is there a business deal you'd like to do?"
