45: Treasure House, confused Wang Teng!

"Ah, the weather is so nice~"

"Ah, the Spiritual Qi in the air is so abundant~"

"Ah, the bustling crowd is so full of life~"

"Ah, my Crescent Lake, long time no see, it's actually so beautiful~"

"Ah, Xiu'er, hey? Yes, it's me, I'm back. Did you miss this Young Master?"

Wang Teng, who had disembarked from the Magical Artifact, began to frolic.

After all, it's easy to go from frugality to luxury, but difficult to go from luxury to frugality.

What could he see in Black Ridge City?

Sand, sand, and more freaking sand!

Even when he went out to kill and fight, he still encountered freaking sand!

Hmm, although fighting was exhilarating and helped him release a lot of his aggression, it didn't mean that he, Young Master Wang, liked looking at idiots.

Wouldn't it be better to look at the crescent shape of Crescent Lake, or the female Cultivators and special practitioners walking on the streets?

Even though he couldn't lose his virginity due to the Wang Family's rules, having something was better than nothing!

He looked at Shen Li, who was calm beside him, with disdain and mocked him.

"Shen, you're still far behind. Look at my Wang Family Market, then look at your dilapidated Black Ridge City, is that even comparable?"

"It's fine, once this trip is over and my cultivation surpasses yours, I can take you in as my junior. When I inherit the Market someday, I can allocate resources to you."

"You won't have to worry about where resources come from anymore. Why don't you become a vassal of my Wang Family?"

"Hahaha, hahaha, hahaha!"

As he spoke, Wang Teng seemed to fall into his own beautiful fantasy, involuntarily putting his hands on his hips and laughing loudly.

He didn't even notice his accompanying group walking away until much later.

He then noticed the Cultivators passing by looking at him as if he were an idiot.

His face twisted, and he jogged forward.

"Shen, are you doubting that I'm lying to you?"

Shen Li looked at the stalls on both sides, occasionally buying some necessities. He still had quite a few Spirit Stones from the Sand Sea Gang, enough for some daily needs.

Currently, Black Ridge City, besides water sources, couldn't be self-sufficient in anything else and had to rely on trade.

He put some seeds into his Storage Pouch, then looked at Wang Teng, and his next words made Wang Teng's face flush red with anger.

"If I were the Wang Family Uncle, I'd blow this place up before handing the Market over to you."

"Ah? Why?"

Wang Teng didn't react for a moment.

Then he saw Shen Li mockingly say,

"Anyway, it'll go bust in the end. At least if it's blown up, you'll hear a bang. Otherwise, if you ruin it, he'll probably jump out of his coffin and whip you, won't he?"

"Shen!"

Unknowingly, Shen Li arrived at the Cang Bao Lou (Treasure Pavilion). This place was different from others; it was currently guarded by the Wang Family Disciple who had entered the Qingchi Mountain sect.

All relics, Magical Artifacts, and techniques discovered in the Sha Hai Plain could be pawned or sold here.

This was a form of official endorsement.

Ignoring Wang Teng's fury, Shen Li took out Spirit Stones and instructed the one-armed Wang Shan, saying,

"Go to the Qi Sect store. I remember they have a method for iron arms. Your current Realm is only Innate. I've preserved your severed arm. When you reach Grandmaster, I'll figure out a way to find something to reattach it for you."

Wang Shan's face showed emotion, and he cupped his hands before disappearing into the crowd.

Then Shen Li said to Qiu Ya,

"Qiu Ya, go buy some seeds. The Cang Hai Flower at home can be hydroponically cultivated, and one acre of spiritual field shouldn't be wasted. The sea buckthorn fruit was drained when I had my Breakthrough and can't be used anymore, so find some wood-attributed spiritual plants that can stabilize the sand and dust. They just need to contain Spiritual Qi, no need for them to be graded."

Qiu Ya hesitated a little, but Shen Li waved his hand.

"This is the Wang Family Market; no one would be foolish enough to fight me here."

Only then did Qiu Ya pick up a bag of Spirit Stones and leave with peace of mind.

Afterward, Shen Li stepped into the Cang Bao Lou (Treasure Pavilion) and approached the front desk.

The Qingchi Mountain Wang Family Disciple at the front desk recognized Shen Li, a smile on his face, and said gently,

"Shen Family Immortal Seed?"

"Greetings, Fellow Daoist."

"You're a rare visitor. I just heard a voice, is my Young Master Wang Teng still outside?"

"Yes."

"It's been a long time since I heard Young Master Wang Teng's roar. I actually missed it a bit. Now that I've heard it, I feel much better."

Shen Li chuckled, then took out the White Zombie'sRelics, but said in a deep voice,

"I came here today because we annihilated a bandit stronghold, killed a martial artist, and a Loose Cultivator."

"This Loose Cultivator cultivated the Corpse Vein, and it seems he had some Legacy. I wonder what the value of this Legacy is?"

The Wang Family Disciple's expression became serious as he looked at the table.

"[Yin Corpse Edict, Corpse Raising Secret Art, Corpse Ghost Domain]"

"Two minor techniques, one Jade Slip, are they evil objects?"

"Yes."

"They are quite rare in the mountains and should have some value... Lao Kuai, come take a look."

A somewhat dwarfish middle-aged man walked over.

He picked up a special Magical Artifact, examined it for a moment, and slowly said,

"They are somewhat rare for the Qi Refining Middle Stage, and their upper limit is also Qi Refining Middle Stage. However, there aren't many in the sect, so we can appropriately raise the price."

"The Jade Slip is the Qi Consumption Method, and the two minor techniques... are worth approximately two thousand five hundred Low-Grade Spirit Stones."

As expected, Shen Li nodded, then saw the Wang Family Disciple smile and say,

"They have some research value, so let's round it up to three thousand Low-Grade Spirit Stones, how about that?"

Lao Kuai next to him said nothing, clearly acquiescing.

Shen Li smiled slightly.

This was the advantage of an aristocratic Immortal family; there were friends and relatives everywhere.

"Deal."

"No problem, Brother Shen, what else do you need?"

Shen Li thought for a moment and said,

"The Black Horn Mountain Range is indeed not peaceful. I want to find a city-protecting Formation for offense, and also some sets of heavy crossbows."

The man thought for a while, then said,

"Complete sets of heavy crossbows might be hard to find. These things have fixed quotas in the mountains. Brother Shen knows well that the Law-Breaking Arrows on heavy crossbows are very rare. Someone in the mountains might buy them to deal with us, which would be a net loss."

"As for city-protecting Formations, yes, there are. Some time ago, a Loose Cultivator brought a Formation Plate and a Formation, said to be from the ruins of the Loulan Ancient Kingdom, called 'Great Yang Fire Subduing Tiger Formation'. This Formation is damaged, but it can still be considered a Ninth Grade."

"It's worth mentioning that this Formation can be controlled by holding the Formation Plate, without needing to construct a Formation Foundation. It's quite convenient. You can also carry it with you when you go out on a daily basis."

"Of course, Brother Shen, if you connect it to a Foundation, you can also, after all, the Spiritual Qi of the Qi Refining Realm is truly difficult to meet the needs of the Formation."

"Price?"

"Brother Shen, please forgive me, this Formation is related to the Loulan Ancient Kingdom, one thousand five hundred Spirit Stones."

Shen Li did not bargain. Since the price was stated, it was likely the bottom line.

He took it, and still had one thousand five hundred Spirit Stones in his hand. He thought for a moment, then asked,

"Are there any Dao Soldier methods?"

"Naturally, there are, but Brother Shen is not from Qingchi Mountain, so your qualifications are insufficient. You cannot purchase it."

"Where can I find it?"

He thought for a while and said,

"My Wang Family Uncle should have a Dao Soldier method, but it's a bit strange and hasn't been cultivated. Brother Shen can go ask him."

"Thank you."

"You're welcome."

As Shen Li turned around, just as he was about to step out of the Cang Bao Lou (Treasure Pavilion), he heard an old, yet powerful voice from outside.

"You little bastard, stop right there!"

"Old man! How have I offended you? Why do you insist on making trouble for me?"

"I didn't do anything bad, did I? I just touched Xiu'er's butt, is that really necessary?"

Outside, there was an immediate commotion!

Wang Teng didn't even think,

and ran like crazy!!!
