Immortality and cultivation begin with full comprehension.

Chapter 250 Myriad Dao Glazed Furnace

The exhibits were categorized and set up at individual counters, each covered with a glass dome to showcase the products to all customers.

"Fellow Daoist, what would you like to buy?"

The shop assistant at this "Treasure Pavilion" is quite skilled; he has the same cultivation level as Li Yunjing.

He spoke to Li Yunjing in a calm and composed manner, seemingly with great confidence.

"Hmm! Are all these low-grade spiritual artifacts, or low-to-mid-tier second-order materials?"

Li Yunjing stood with his hands behind his back and asked calmly.

These things might not even meet his approval.

"Fellow Daoist, the second floor is full of mid-to-low-grade spiritual artifacts and second-tier mid-to-low-grade materials! If you want higher-grade items, you must go to the third floor."

"However, the third floor is currently only open to Gold-level members. If you want to buy something better, you can wait ten days. After the auction, all sorts of good things will be available for sale."

The waiter didn't seem to mind and proceeded with the introduction at a leisurely pace.

"Hmm! Let's see if there are any mid-grade spiritual artifacts or jewelry used by female cultivators."

Li Yunjing thought for a moment. Since he was already here, and Yu Yunyi and Lü Ruoxi had been so good to him, he should at least give them something decent.

As for Fu Chao, Li Yunjing has plenty of spoils of war. Giving him a spiritual artifact is a gift to celebrate Fu Chao's advancement to the Foundation Establishment Realm.

"Yes! Fellow Daoist, please follow me!"

Upon hearing Li Yunjing's request, the shop assistant was delighted and became much more enthusiastic, leading Li Yunjing towards a counter.

"Old Yu, take out the jewelry and let this fellow Daoist take a look!"

The man went to the counter of the magical artifacts and spoke directly to the clerk inside.

"it is good!"

The man nodded, glanced at Li Yunjing, and began to open the glass cover, taking out magical treasures.

As for Li Yunjing, who was dressed in a black bamboo hat and whose face was not revealed, he was already used to this kind of scene; many cultivators were like this.

The man placed a series of exquisite sandalwood boxes on the counter.

"Crack!"

After removing the talisman, the shopkeeper opened the five or six sandalwood boxes he had brought out, and immediately, they shone with a dazzling brilliance.

What was presented to Li Yunjing was a pair of earrings, two necklaces, a bracelet, and a ring.

"These pieces of jewelry are all mid-grade spiritual artifacts. I wonder which one this fellow Daoist finds suitable?"

The shopkeeper continued, "If there's anything you like, I can take it out and invite you to examine it."

"Hmm! Both are good!"

Li Yunjing's weapon-refining skills are quite high; he is also a second-tier weapon refiner.

He can now refine low-grade spiritual weapons. Although he cannot refine mid-grade spiritual weapons for the time being, he can still judge their quality and function with his skill level.

Li Yunjing immediately understood what was going on with these pieces of jewelry; they were all crafted by skilled artisans and were truly fine items.

He turned his gaze away from the jewelry and asked, "How much? Do you accept trades?"

"Exchange? Fellow Daoist has something to sell? May I take a look?"

The shopkeeper glanced at Li Yunjing, a thought suddenly struck him, and instead of offering a price, he proposed bartering.

Trading in is definitely more cost-effective than selling!
"Jubaolou" lowers prices when buying things, but raises prices when selling them!

With the addition and subtraction of profits, the "Treasure Pavilion" earns far more than it would from selling jewelry alone.

"here?"

Li Yunjing chuckled softly.

"I apologize! I was rude! Please follow me, fellow Daoist."

The shopkeeper looked around and saw that there were quite a few cultivators also selecting items. He then slapped his forehead and showed a hint of apology.

"this way please!"

The waiter led Li Yunjing into a reception room.

Li Yunjing then took out nine blood banners from his "treasure bag," all of which were high-grade spiritual artifacts!
On that day, Li Yunjing was being chased by demonic cultivators, and it was this object that blocked his path.

Li Yunjing has now taken out this set of treasures, intending to trade it for some benefits.

Otherwise, according to the rules of the "Shenxiao Dao Sect", they would destroy every single item they saw, which would be a real pain for Li Yunjing!

If a demonic cultivator saw this, he would definitely treasure it; it's a valuable item!
Li Yunjing really couldn't bear to destroy it for nothing.

As for whether Li Yunjing's actions constitute aiding the enemy?

He couldn't care less about any of that anymore!
It was simply too valuable for Li Yunjing to part with!

"Hiss... A demonic artifact!"

The entire room was a blood-red mess, and a stench emanated from it. The waiter gasped, his face contorted in horror.

"What? You're not going to do this business?"

Li Yunjing continued to ask.

"Well... my 'Treasure Pavilion' doesn't distinguish between the paths of immortals, demons, Buddhas, monsters, or witches. As long as it's profitable, there's nothing we wouldn't dare to do!"

"However, this item is of very high quality. I need to ask our steward to come over so she can discuss it with you. Is that alright?"

The waiter explained, then asked a question in return.

"no problem!"

Li Yunjing nodded, his expression remaining calm. As for the fact that "Jubaolou" betrayed him and reported him to "Shenxiaodaozong"?
Li Yunjing is really not afraid of this!
If the sect finds out, the worst that can happen is that I'll just have to accept some punishment!

As for worse outcomes, they don't exist!
Li Yunjing's loyalty is beyond question; the sect would never suspect him of colluding with demonic cultivators.

Moreover, there are quite a few disciples who, like Li Yunjing, chose the "Shenxiao Dao Sect".

These are all valuable items; who would want to destroy them for nothing?

"Okay! I'll send the message!"

Seeing that Li Yunjing had no objections, the shop assistant took out a "communication talisman" in front of Li Yunjing and transmitted the information.

"Alright! Fellow Daoist, please wait a moment, our steward from 'Treasure Pavilion' will be here shortly!"

The man put down the "message talisman," and while making tea for Li Yunjing, he said with a smile.

"Hehehe! We heard from the people below that you have something good, is that right?"

Outside the reception room, the sound of a door opening came from outside, and then a young girl walked in.

Upon hearing the voice, Li Yunjing turned to look at the newcomer and saw that the woman was exceptionally beautiful, dressed in a sapphire blue dress, with crystal clear skin and an ethereal beauty.

"Greetings, Steward Liu!" The waiter saw Steward Liu arrive, quickly stood up, and bowed.

"Okay! You go ahead and get busy! I'll have a talk with this distinguished guest."

The woman glanced at the nine blood-red banners on the table, a thought struck her, and she gave the order.

The waiter glanced at Li Yunjing and smiled, "Honored guest, this is Steward Liu from our 'Jubaolou' restaurant. You can discuss the rest yourselves! I'll take my leave!"

Li Yunjing nodded, looked at Steward Liu sitting opposite him, and said, "Steward Liu should know the value of this set of Blood Banners. I wonder if 'Treasure Pavilion' is willing to trade it?"

"What a treasure! A complete set of spiritual artifacts is incredibly powerful. These nine blood banners, when put together and arranged in an array, are as powerful as a top-grade spiritual artifact, or even a half-step treasure artifact!"

Deacon Liu picked up a blood-red banner, examined it, then pointed to the six pieces of jewelry on the table and laughed, "These pieces of jewelry together aren't enough for the transaction! Fellow Daoist, what else do you need? Our 'Treasure Pavilion' can raise the price!"

Li Yunjing thought for a moment and asked softly, "Does the 'Treasure Pavilion' sell alchemy furnaces of the spirit weapon level?"

"Alchemy furnace?"

Deacon Liu smiled broadly, but a glint of shrewdness flashed in his eyes.

Unexpectedly, this mysterious guest was also an alchemist!

It's unclear whether this person belongs to any faction. If not, they could be recruited into the "Treasure Pavilion" to become their full-time alchemist.

Deacon Liu smiled and continued, "What grade of alchemy furnace do you desire, fellow Daoist? Our 'Treasure Pavilion' has plenty of fine things! We can even produce magic-grade alchemy furnaces!"

"hehe!"

Li Yunjing smiled, but his heart was in turmoil. He hadn't expected that "Jubaolou" would be able to bring out such a good thing.

As expected of the number one merchant guild in the Southern Continent!
Li Yunjing smiled and asked, "Tell me about the top-grade spiritual artifact alchemy furnace. How much of a bargaining chip do I need to put up?"

"Excellent! Fellow Daoist, what a generous gesture!"

Deacon Liu giggled, her curiosity about Li Yunjing growing stronger.

At this point, she no longer had any intention of recruiting Li Yunjing!

The fact that the other party was willing to offer a top-grade spiritual artifact alchemy furnace meant that they must be very wealthy.

Even the most powerful organization couldn't bribe this kind of person.

"Fellow Daoist, if you can provide ten sets of the same level of complete magical artifacts, I will do you a favor and exchange these jewelry pieces and the alchemy furnace for you!"

Deacon Liu was very generous and said, "Fellow Daoist, please have a seat! I will bring out the top-grade spiritual artifact alchemy furnace so that you can have a look at it."

After saying that, the woman with the graceful figure stood up and walked out of the reception room.

"Sigh! Where would I get so many magical artifacts of this caliber?"

Li Yunjing frowned, flipped through his "treasure pouch," and looking at the dozens of magical artifacts, knew that these things were all doomed.

He even needs to add extra spirit stones!
However, Li Yunjing was determined to obtain the top-grade spiritual artifact alchemy furnace, even if it meant selling everything he owned!
A top-grade spiritual artifact alchemy furnace can greatly assist in alchemy and can definitely produce pills of grade six or higher!
Moreover, the difficulty of alchemy is greatly reduced by the use of a top-grade spiritual artifact alchemy furnace.

Li Yunjing took out all the magical artifacts, all of which were spoils of war from this great battle.

He took down forty people. These Foundation Establishment cultivators from the "Netherworld Ghost Sect" were not poor; each of them possessed at least one spiritual artifact, and some even had two or three.

These things filled the table, so Li Yunjing treated them like junk and threw them on the ground with a clatter. Before long, they covered half of the reception room.

As for the Golden Core Realm demonic cultivator, he also had two top-grade demonic artifacts, but Li Yunjing was unwilling to take them out for trade.

Those things are all powerful weapons. Li Yunjing could keep them for his own secret use or sell them for a sky-high price. Either way, he was reluctant to exchange them for "Jubaolou".

In bartering, Li Yunjing was at a disadvantage!

Li Yunjing naturally understood this principle perfectly.

With so many magical artifacts, Li Yunjing simply couldn't afford to take his time. If the sect found out, he would face considerable trouble.

It's better to take a loss and clear out everything at "Jubaolou" in one go, so that you won't have any trouble later.

Not long after Li Yunjing threw everything out, Steward Liu returned, carrying a box in her hand.

"what's the situation?"

When Deacon Liu entered the room, her cherry-like mouth was wide open, and her big eyes were full of surprise.

The room is full of magical artifacts!

This completely shocked the well-informed Steward Liu.

She thought about it for a moment and finally understood what was going on!
The newcomer was a Foundation Establishment cultivator from the "Shenxiao Dao Sect," who participated in the attack on the "Youming Ghost Sect" and gained many advantages on the battlefield, killing many disciples of the "Youming Ghost Sect."

This person concealed their tracks; they came here to sell stolen goods!

The rules of the "Shenxiao Dao Sect" were naturally well understood by the "Jubaolou," which explained why this person was so cautious.

"Bring all of these things in exchange. If it's not enough, just say the word!"

Li Yunjing smiled and pointed to the magical artifacts.

"Alright! Fellow Daoist, take a look at this alchemy furnace first! I'll appraise these demonic artifacts!"

After thinking for a moment, Deacon Liu tossed the wooden box in her hand to Li Yunjing, while she began to inventory the magical artifacts.

"Please make yourself at home, fellow Daoist!"

Li Yunjing nodded and opened the box, revealing a delicate, three-legged, domed, seven-colored alchemical furnace about one foot in size.

This alchemy furnace gleamed and was filled with a vibrant energy, somewhat resembling the spirituality of the "Azure Sea Listening to the Waves Sword".

After taking one look, Li Yunjing immediately took out the alchemy furnace and examined it carefully.

While quickly inspecting each magical artifact, Deacon Liu chuckled and said, "This 'Myriad Paths Glazed Furnace' is a truly fine item! It was supposed to be auctioned! However, knowing that you urgently need this item, I removed the 'Myriad Paths Glazed Furnace' from the auction list."

"Oh! Thank you for your help, Deacon Liu!"

Li Yunjing casually replied, but sneered inwardly: "If it weren't for the fact that I have such a large collection of demonic artifacts, which are extremely valuable, and your 'Treasure Pavilion' could easily sell them to the 'Netherworld Ghost Sect' after a little reselling, would you be so kind?"

Li Yunjing tried to inject a wisp of magic power into the small "Myriad Paths Glazed Furnace". Instantly, the furnace suddenly grew larger with a "boom", turning into a three-foot-long furnace.

Li Yunjing channeled a little magic power into the "Nine Yang Fire," causing the "Myriad Paths Glazed Furnace" to emit a brilliant seven-colored divine light, and its rich spiritual energy immediately soared into the sky.

Before Li Yunjing even started refining pills, he sensed the "Myriad Paths Glazed Furnace," finding it easy to use and a cherished item for alchemists.

Even someone as worldly-wise as Li Yunjing couldn't help but be moved.

"I'm definitely getting this!"

Li Yunjing made up his mind: he had to make a deal, whether he wanted to or not!
Paying more is no problem!

Good things are known to be expensive, and there's no way to deceive yourself; you pay the price you're entitled to.

Seeing through Li Yunjing's actions, Deacon Liu smiled and said, "How is it? Are you satisfied, fellow Daoist?"

Li Yunjing pondered for a moment, nodded, and said, "Satisfied! Flawless! Quickly take inventory and give me a fair price!"
