5: Trip to Zhangfang City

Beside him, Chen Youming revealed an envious expression.

5000 Chen Clan contribution points wasn't a small amount for him, especially since he was already at the Qi Refining Ninth Layer and preparing to exchange for a foundation establishment pill.

If he had the assistance of 5000 contribution points, it would be relatively easier for him to exchange for the foundation establishment pill, but unfortunately, Chen Clan contribution points could only be shared among blood relatives within three generations.

As for Chen Jiancang, he was the only one left within three generations, so these 5000 contribution points could only be used by him personally; otherwise, he could have borrowed them first.

"Alright, since this matter is concluded, you should return as soon as possible."

Chen Yinjiang waved his hand, preparing to clear out a flower bed to verify the newly acquired qinghe rice cultivation plan.

Chen Youming and Chen Jiancang no longer lingered, cupping their hands in farewell.

At this moment, he did not plan to contribute the Qinghe Qi Cultivation Pill recipe still in his hands to the Chen Clan.

Its value was even greater than the qinghe rice cultivation plan; if he contributed it, attracting too much attention from others in a short period might not be a good thing.

"Jiancang, it's not easy to come to the Chen Clan territory once.

It's a good chance to go and see the main branch Market.

It's different from the Xiao Yun Mountain Market; there are shops opened by other forces there, and perhaps they have the spiritual items you need.

I still have other important matters to handle.

I'll go to the Market to find you after I'm done."

Walking out of the Spirit Plant Hall, Chen Youming pointed to a cluster of buildings outside the Spiritual Vein and said to Chen Jiancang.

The Chen Clan main branch Market, unlike the Xiao Yun Mountain Market, was not entirely composed of shops opened by Chen Clan members; instead, other immortal cultivation Family forces from the surrounding area had also established themselves there, exchanging goods and services.

For example, the Hanhai Li Family, famous for spiritual fishing, the Pingyuan Zhou Family, which specialized in raising spiritual beasts, the Golden Core Sect Heavenly Star Sect, known for its Legacy in Artifact Refining, and others, all had shops in the Qingya Mountain Market.

Although the Qingya Mountain Market was located outside the Chen Clan's Spiritual Vein, a Chen Clan Golden Core Old Ancestor was stationed nearby, so there were no safety concerns.

Many rogue Cultivators and Cultivators from other forces were willing to trade here, making it the largest trading market in the Qingya Mountain Range.

Its prosperity was imaginable.

Chen Jiancang had long yearned for it, but unfortunately, his cultivation was low.

He had been transmigrated for over a year and had never visited the main branch once.

And at this time, carrying over 200 spiritual stones and 5000 Chen Clan contribution points, he happened to need to purchase some other varieties of spiritual plant seeds and auxiliary ingredients for the Qinghe Qi Cultivation Pill, and use the experience gained to try refining Qi Gathering Pills.

Therefore, a trip to the main branch Market was imperative.

"Ninth Uncle, please go and be busy, don't worry about me.

I will wait for you at the entrance of the Market afterwards."

Chen Jiancang cupped his hands and said.

If Chen Youming accompanied Chen Jiancang to the Market, it would be inconvenient.

At this moment, Chen Youming had matters to handle, which was exactly as he wished.

"Okay."

Chen Youming took out a jade boat and shot towards the cluster of buildings in the distance.

The Qingya Mountain Market was generally divided into three areas: the central area housed the shops of various major forces, the western direction was the cultivation cave dwelling rental area, and a two-zhang wide road ran through from east to west.

On both sides of the road before reaching the central area, sheets of beast hide were spread on the ground, displaying a dazzling array of goods, including spiritual herbs, Spirit Talismans, Spiritual Artifacts, and some demonic beast Materials, etc.

This area was the retail section for low-level rogue Cultivators.

Shouts of vendors and bargaining sounds rose and fell, as if this were not a Cultivator's Market, but a Mortal marketplace.

Chen Jiancang looked around curiously, attracted by the prosperous scene of the immortal cultivation world before him.

While on Blue Star, he had seen scenes more prosperous than this, but this unique style still deeply attracted him.

"Walk by, don't miss out!

Ice Talismans, Boulder Talismans, Golden Armor Talismans drawn by a First Order High Grade Talisman Master, selling cheap!

Three Spirit Talismans for only one spiritual stone!"

Chen Jiancang was attracted by the shout.

"Young man, interested in my Spirit Talismans?"

"These are produced by a First Order High Grade Talisman Master.

Although they are only First Order Low Grade Spirit Talismans, the quality is absolutely guaranteed."

The person selling the Talismans was a scraggly-bearded old man.

Seeing Chen Jiancang's gaze linger, he quickly straightened up to solicit business.

Although Chen Jiancang only had Qi Refining Third Layer cultivation, he wore clothing with the Chen Clan's insignia, clearly indicating he was not comparable to those impoverished low-level rogue Cultivators.

Chen Jiancang couldn't sense his specific cultivation level; clearly, this person's cultivation was much higher than his.

Chen Jiancang waved his hand, then half-squatted down, picked up a worn-out book nearby, and asked, "How much is this detailed explanation of low-level Talisman drawing?"

The old man looked at Chen Jiancang in surprise, then quickly said with a smile, "This is a detailed explanation of low-level Talisman drawing passed down from my Family.

It records the drawing methods for ten common low-level Spirit Talismans and isn't worth much money."

"However, it contains experience notes left by my elders when they were learning and practicing.

If you sincerely want it, I'll sell it to you for 5 spiritual stones."

The reason the old man was surprised was that detailed explanations of this kind of low-level Talisman could be obtained for free within the Chen Clan without spending spiritual stones.

He couldn't understand why Chen Jiancang would be interested in it.

But he didn't know that Chen Jiancang's understanding of Spirit Talismans was gained by digesting the memories of his predecessor and learning from the experience gained when harvesting spiritual plants; he didn't have a complete and systematic understanding.

At this time, seeing this detailed explanation of Spirit Talismans and looking at the notes inside, he gained some insights and couldn't help but feel a bit of an impulse to buy and study it.

"The price of 5 spiritual stones is too high.

You'll have to include 3 Golden Armor Talismans for me."

Chen Jiancang didn't agree immediately.

He had painstakingly cultivated qinghe rice, and without the new cultivation plan, he could at most harvest seventy or eighty spiritual stones.

Since it was hard-earned, how could he squander it casually?

So he immediately started bargaining.

"This..."

"A single Golden Armor Talisman sells for 40 ling sand.

I'd lose too much like that.

How about you offer a bit more, or look, I have a few spirit rain talismans here.

How about I include these Talismans for you?"

The old man frowned and negotiated, as if including 3 Golden Armor Talismans would cause him a great loss.

Although spirit rain talismans were the most widely used in the Qingya Mountain Range area, they were not valuable.

After all, the art of Spirit Talismans was also the foundation of the Chen Clan, and the Chen Clan was based on the spiritual farming industry.

Most Talisman Masters started learning Talisman making from spirit rain talismans.

Therefore, although spirit rain talismans were also First Order Low Grade Spirit Talismans, their price was far less than other Talismans.

Chen Jiancang glanced at the spirit rain talismans.

They were a bit worn, but could still be activated and used.

He then nodded.

A few spirit rain talismans could save him the consumption of using the Spirit Rain Technique, which was better than nothing.

He took out five spiritual stones, handed them to the stall owner, and put the spirit rain talismans and the detailed explanation of low-level Talismans into his storage bag.

"Young man, why don't you look at my other Spirit Talismans?

They are all made by masters.

If you buy them, you can refer to them when learning to draw Spirit Talismans."

Seeing that Chen Jiancang was about to get up and leave, the old man continued to solicit business.

"No, thank you.

Farewell."

Chen Jiancang waved his hand and continued walking forward.

In fact, for low-level Cultivators like him, the rogue Cultivator stall area was the most suitable.

If he went to the shops, the prices would definitely not be as affordable as in the stall area.

"Low-level spiritual herbs selling cheap!

They are all grown in our own Spirit Fields, full of spiritual energy, properly preserved, free from insect or rodent damage, and of excellent quality!

Limited quantity!

Absolutely the best choice for refining pills!

Walking by means missing out!"
