Chapter Twenty-Nine: Fang City
"Thank you, junior brother!" Ye Xiaoran smiled happily, and then said: "This visit to the market is a place where cultivators trade and buy and sell with each other, as for the specific situation, it is better for the junior brother to go with me now, and you will know at a glance."

"That's great, it's just that I can't fly, so I'm going to trouble Senior Sister." Yun Shan said with some embarrassment.
"It's easy." After Ye Xiaoran finished speaking, he raised his hand, and a blue light flew out, holding the two of them up side by side, slowly rising into the air and gradually accelerating towards the sky.

Jinshou City is the closest big city to the Golden Sword Gate, and at this moment, Yun Shan and Ye Xiaoran are standing in front of the gate of Juxian Tower in the city.
Yun Shan glanced at the jade-framed gold signboard on the door, and then looked at Ye Xiaoran beside him, with an inquiring look on his face.
Ye Xiaoran saw Yun Shan looking over, covered his mouth and chuckled: "That's right, it's here, does the little junior brother think that I have brought you here from thousands of miles away, and I am here to eat?" As he spoke, his lips opened lightly, his eyebrows were crooked, and the whites of his eyes were turning, as if he was smiling and angry.
Yun Shan laughed at this senior sister, a little overwhelmed, and said embarrassedly, "This... Hehe... Of course not, please ask my sister to lead the way. β
Ye Xiaoran took the diameter of Yunshan to the second floor. At this time, on the second floor, there were already many customers watching and talking in front of many items and materials, but there were many people asking for prices, but there were few real buyers and sellers.
In the hall, at the corner of the stairs leading to the third floor, sat a young man, dressed as a man, inconspicuous. With his hands on his knees, he seemed to be dozing off. Suddenly, the young man seemed to feel something, suddenly raised his head to look left and right, and finally fell his gaze on Ye Xiaoran. The young man slowly got up and patted the dust off his clothes, tidied up a little, and then walked towards the two with a smile.
The young man came to Ye Xiaoran's side, bowed and whispered, "This fairy is polite!" Are you here to visit the city? β
Ye Xiaoran smiled and saluted: "My junior brother and I are just going to enter the city, and we ask Taoist friends to lead the way." β
"Come with me, both of you." Several people walked towards the seat where the young man had just been seated, but instead of going up the stairs that led to the third floor, they entered a stone room next to the stairs.
"May I ask if you two need to rent a concealment robe, the master of this building has recently refined a batch of new concealment robes, which can not only conceal the appearance, but also add the function of concealment cultivation, and the rental fee is still maintained at the original two essence stones. Would you like to give it a try? As soon as he walked into the stone room, the young man let go of his voice and introduced enthusiastically.
"No, we're just doing some normal trading." Ye Xiaoran rejected the young man's proposal, this expensive rental fee was not something she could afford.
The young man's expression was slightly disappointed, but he immediately covered up the past well. skillfully pushed open a secret door on the wall, took out two jade plaques with "Jin Shou" written on them from his arms, handed them to Yun Shan and Ye Xiaoran, and then stretched out his hand to the door with a smile on his face: "Two of you, please come in!" β
Behind the secret door is a jade corridor with a ladder sloping upward. On the walls on both sides of the road, there are many stone beads that emit soft white light, and the road under the white light is bright, but the road surface can be seen clearly.
Ye Xiaoran nodded at Yun Shan, and walked in first.
The whole road was only a hundred paces long, and the two of them walked out of the slightly white exit after walking for a while.
What catches your eye is as if the interior of a huge pavilion is seven or eight streets wide enough to fit down, and there are many simple and tall buildings standing neatly and upright, like a building within a building.
But the most shocking thing is that this huge pavilion has no windows, and the internal light is all emitted by the stone beads on the wall, although each stone bead only emits a faint soft light, but by virtue of the huge number, it actually illuminates the place as if it were day.
"Senior Sister Night, what kind of place is this? Are we no longer in Juxian Building? Yun Shan asked in surprise as he looked at everything in front of him.
"I don't know, even my master can't explain it clearly. Leave that alone, let's go shopping. Ye Xiaoran seemed to be accustomed to everything here, and he was about to walk inside with Yunshan.
"Wait, what does this sign do?" Yun Shan asked with the sign that said "Jin Shou" in his hand.
"Oh yes, this sign needs to be kept. With this sign, we can go out of the passage of Jinshou City for free, and if you want to go through the passage of other cities, you will have to pay a separate fee. β
When Yunshan was in Yuquan City, he had done a lot of trading of demon beast materials on the second floor of Juxian Building, and he had a deep understanding of Juxian Building's many ways to collect money, so he nodded and put the jade brand into the storage bag.

On both sides of a street-like pavement, on the pieces of animal skins, there are various trading items, including various elixirs, weapons, ores, and various demon beast materials. The owners of the objects sat cross-legged on the edge of the hides, some of them closed their eyes and waited for the customers to come to the door, and some simply shouted loudly.
"Hundred-year-old wood vanilla, there are only five plants left, each with a spirit stone... Are there Taoist friends who are willing to exchange? β
"Fifty pieces of green fat jade, an excellent material for refining various jade talismans, you only need three essence stones, you can take them all γγγγγγ"
"Twenty grains of low-grade yellow bud pills, eight essence stones per grain, you can get a discount if you sell more."
"Sell all kinds of mid-level demon pills, and all kinds of demon beast materials, which are of good quality and low price. In addition, the mid-grade blood essence pill is sold, so that your demon beast can grow quickly, and each price is ten essence stonesγγγγγγ β
"Senior sister, there are people selling blood essence pills." Yun Shan was very unfamiliar with the names of these many items, and suddenly heard a familiar name from them, which was the Blood Essence Pill that Ye Xiaoran wanted to buy this time, so he immediately reminded him.
"Alas... I heard the man's shouting. Although this mid-grade blood essence pill is good, it is expensive. I'm going to just buy the next product back, so that I can buy a few more pills, although the effect of the medicine will be worse, but I can feed the white fox many times, which will make it more impressed with me. β
Ye Xiaoran said helplessly.
"Senior Sister Night, what kind of material is this high-grade elixir used to refine it? What is the effect? It's so expensive! When Yun Shan heard that one Blood Essence Pill would sell for ten Essence Stones, he couldn't help but ask curiously.
"This Blood Essence Pill is refined from the Demon Pill, and the Medium-grade Blood Essence Pill is refined from the Middle-Rank Demon Pill. Although the essence contained in the demon pill is rich, it is very mixed and unstable. If the demon beast is swallowed directly, it is easy to be dangerous, and the furious essence is not easy to be absorbed, and often more than half of the essence contained in a demon pill will be wasted.
Later, a predecessor invented a method to refine the demon pill with the demon beast essence blood, and finally made this blood essence pill. The essence contained in the Blood Essence Pill is much calmer, and it is pure, and when given to the demon beast, it has the effect of promoting the growth of the demon beast and improving the strength of the demon beast. β
"Can this elixir be given to people?" Yun Shan listened to Ye Xiaoran's explanation, and felt as if he had entered a new world, it turned out that there was such a wonderful magic in this world, and he couldn't help but say the doubts in his heart again.
"No, this kind of peace and purity is only for demon beasts. Human beings do not have the body as strong as demon beasts, and besides, the cultivation methods of humans and demon beasts are also different, and such an essence is still too violent and mixed for human beings. We are only allowed to take pills that have been refined from herbs that have been aged for years. β
Ye Xiaoran's willow eyebrows bent slightly, and she always smiled and explained to Yunshan.
"Senior Sister Night doesn't know how to learn the refining method of the Blood Essence Pill?" Yun Shan asked again.
"You want to learn alchemy? Well... If you are refining the pill taken by people, you can learn from Uncle Gu, the refining method of this demon pill, you can buy a single side here, and the materials and refining methods of the pill will be recorded on the single side.
However, although many people know the refining method of the elixir, it is very difficult to really refine it successfully, and it is impossible to succeed without a lot of practice.
Moreover, this requires a lot of materials to consume, and alchemy is an extremely time-consuming and energy-consuming thing, if your cultivation is delayed for this, I am afraid that Senior Uncle Shen will blame me. Ye Xiaoran was worried that Yunshan would delay his cultivation, so he persuaded him.
"Okay, Senior Sister Night, I'm just curious and want to give it a try. No, here are five essence stones, you can use them. I'm going to look for the unilateral side, and I want to walk around here more, so let's separate here, you don't have to wait for me after you buy the pill. Yun Shan interrupted Ye Xiaoran's words, handed her five more essence stones and said.
"That... Okay, you have to go back early, or Uncle Shen will blame me. Ye Xiaoran hesitated for a moment and agreed.
"Senior sister, don't worry." After Yun Shan finished speaking, he walked into the crowd with some excitement.
γγγγγγ
"How many Essence Qi Stones do you need for this red cloud crystal?" Yun Shan came to a stall and asked.
This stall is obviously much bigger than the others. Around a huge fiery fur, there are many demon beast materials neatly stacked, from Yun Shan's point of view, most of them are from mid-level demon beasts, and a small number of materials are of better quality, probably from high-level demon beasts. There are some bottles and cans next to it, and it is unknown what Yunshan contains.
And in the very center of the fur, there are several crystals of different colors.
The owner of the stall did not shout like most people, but sat quietly next to the stall, and what attracted Yun Shan's attention the most was that this person was wearing a black robe, and there seemed to be a layer of water waves on his face, just to be able to see the general expression of this person, and even at the moment he was closing his eyes to recuperate, but it was impossible to see his appearance clearly. Yunshan has been walking for so long, and it is the first time that I have seen someone wearing such a robe, and this robe is probably a hidden robe.
When the stall owner heard Yun Shan's question, his eyes slowly opened, looked at Yun Shan and said: "Little brother has a good eye, he recognized the origin of this stone at a glance, but judging from your cultivation, I'm afraid... β
The man didn't finish speaking, but Yun Shan had already heard the meaning of his words, and he didn't feel annoyed, and said with a smile:
"The seniors are right, the younger generations are just starting to cultivate the truth, and they really can't afford such precious materials. However, if the seniors do not dislike the younger generation's cultivation as low, please also inform its price, the younger generation also has a goal, and I believe that one day the younger generation will have the strength to buy.
"Haha... Little brother is so ambitious! β
