My path to immortality began with my posting to guard Dawancun.

Chapter 129 Training Method
After several days of business negotiations,

The final rent was set at around three thousand spirit stones.

The rents charged by the various chambers of commerce are roughly the same.

Because although the various merchant guilds don't differ much in selling and recycling cultivation-related items,

However, their main businesses are different. For example, one company mainly sells talismans, another sells elixirs, and yet another sells magical artifacts.
Each of them basically has its own area of ​​expertise and a certain reputation in the area.

The Sanhe Chamber of Commerce mainly sells pills for cultivation, various Qi-restoring pills, and Qi-explosive pills for intense battles.

While there may be competition among the major chambers of commerce in their basic business operations, their core high-level business operations are not interconnected.

Therefore, the impact on the location within this business district is not significant.

Even if the location is a bit remote, people who need it will go a long way to get there.

Also because of this,

The rent is around three thousand spirit stones, and there isn't much difference between them.

But that must exist.

For example, the area closer to the village entrance is higher, while the area closer to the inner corner is lower.

However, the difference isn't significant, only around a few dozen to a hundred spirit stones.

Once the lease agreement is signed and the rent is paid,
Then you can simply pack your bags and move in.

The buildings will be uniformly designed according to the area specifications of the Sanhe Chamber of Commerce, and will include the specifications for the commercial warehouse.
The difference lies in the signboard and storefront.

But the neat and spacious street layout has a unique charm in this feudal world.

And the final result,

Three chambers of commerce have signed lease agreements to move in.

This allowed Shen Changchuan to unexpectedly gain an income of nine thousand spirit stones.

Actually, there were five merchant managers who came this time.
There were two other possibilities, such as insufficient funds or other considerations, and they said they would go back and think about it before making a decision.

Then again,
Shen Changchuan had met the managers of the three chambers of commerce that decided to lease and move in.

They met during the incident in Wujiaji when he represented Si Houqing's Sanhe Chamber of Commerce and fought in the arena.

He displayed several perfect-level spells on the arena at that time.

After easily defeating the enemy,

The managers of the three merchants, Duobaolou, Qiongyu Chamber of Commerce, and Fulu Chamber of Commerce, approached Shen Changchuan and spoke to him warmly. They gave him their contact information and some tokens that would grant him discounts when purchasing goods through their respective chambers, hoping to win over this genius.

However, at that time, Shen Changchuan wore a mask to participate in the arena battle in order to avoid trouble, so they did not know Shen Changchuan's identity.

And so,

This time, they had no choice but to try and gauge Shen Changchuan's opinion through Si Houqing's connection, rather than going directly to his door.

This world is not the industrially advanced world of my previous life.
Two strangers can complete a business transaction online.

In this feudal society,

Most of the business is done through acquaintances.

However, regarding this,

Shen Changchuan got used to it.

This is also a good opportunity to get to know more people, which may be beneficial to me in the future.

Of course,
The total income of nine thousand spirit stones was not paid in full.

Instead, he paid 4,500 spirit stones upfront, with the remainder to be paid later.

This is the result.
Not the best
But it did not disappoint Shen Changchuan.

In the end, it's all yours anyway.

With 4,500 spirit stones in hand,
Shen Changchuan's net worth thus broke through the ten thousand spirit stones mark! Such a substantial fortune...

Shen Changchuan certainly wouldn't hoard it in his storage bag like a wealthy landlord.

Taking into account the upcoming improvement goals.

So the next thing to do is probably to go to Qingcheng, cross out all those spirit stones, and use them to buy Qingyu Pills to improve my cultivation.

However, although such thoughts were in his mind...
However, Shen Changchuan did not set off immediately.

Firstly, he felt it was not safe.

The two journeys are over a thousand miles long, and even if he travels at full speed, it would take him at least ten days to make the round trip.

This took too long!

Moreover, if it were as Si Houqing feared...
Once he had bought the Jade Pill, the news was leaked, leading to an ambush on his way home.

That would be a huge problem.

Shen Changchuan did not think he was invincible after advancing to the seventh level.

Even with the Azure Wood Sword Light, Shen Changchuan wasn't very confident if he were surrounded by cultivators at the eighth or ninth level of Qi Refining.

A huge fortune of tens of thousands of spirit stones.

That's more than enough for those famous Qi Refining cultivators at the eighth or ninth level to make a move!
Unless, as Si Houqing suggested, one purchases the Azure Jade Pills and then rents a secluded cultivation chamber in Qingcheng to consume and refine them all,

In a safe place, transform it all into your own strength before returning.

But obviously,
This is impossible.

Because the time required for seclusion to consume and refine elixirs can be quite long.

That's a timeframe measured in months!
In the current turbulent situation, he has been away for several months.

Unless Shen Changchuan gives up his family business in Dawancun.

"I need a way to quickly travel long distances between Dawancun and Qingcheng."

Shen Changchuan quickly came up with an idea.

His gaze also fell upon the beast-taming secret technique he had previously acquired.
And the Swift Falcon that was captured and imprisoned in the dungeon of Dawan Village!

"If I can master the secret art of beast taming and then control the Gale Falcon, then I will be able to gain the ability to fly before reaching the Nascent Soul stage."

"Being able to fly in a straight line at high altitudes allows me to avoid rugged mountain roads and dense forests, as well as being attacked by monsters and malicious individuals along the way. Combined with the speed of the Gale Falcon, I can complete the transaction within one or two days and make a round trip from Dawan Village to Qingcheng!"

If one masters the art of beast taming and controls the Swift Falcon...

Then I won't have to worry about being ambushed by the enemy on the way after leaving Qingcheng.

Before advancing to the Nascent Soul stage, even those at the ninth level of Qi Induction do not possess the ability to fly.
As a result,
Even if someone is envious and wants to surround and kill him, he can simply ride the Gale Falcon and fly over from high above, leaving them helpless!
Very soon,
Shen Changchuan then made his decision.

correct,

There's also the Transformation Technique, which I need to practice.

To buy Qingyu Dan in Qingcheng, you'll need to change your disguise.

This can be seen as preparation for the early debut of my alternate identity.

I've made up my mind.

After a few short days of rest, Shen Changchuan rallied his spirits and resumed his career of honing his magic.

Cast spells again and again, experiencing the process firsthand.
When you get tired, watch the progress bar on the control panel increase.

So repeatedly,

This continued until seven days later.

Shen Changchuan saw,
The progress bar for Beast Taming Techniques on the panel has reached 100%.
