Chapter 154: Purple Void Hundred Treasure Pavilion
The next day, Lin Quan first went to the Purple Void Heavenly Crystal Palace, and then went to the Hidden Scripture Pavilion for a run. This time, he directly and purposefully copied seven texts.
Among these seven classics, except for two alchemy techniques, the other five are Danfang. Among them, the Danfang of "Lingning Pill" is also impressively listed. Now, Lin Quan has been in the classroom for nearly three years, and he has already copied a lot of alchemy classics in the Hidden Scripture Pavilion, so his move to copy the "Spirit Condensing Pill" Danfang will not seem very special. In Zhou Lao's opinion, Lin Quan was nothing more than a whimsical fool. After all, in the years that Zhou Lao was in charge of the Tibetan Scripture Pavilion, there were many people like Lin Quan.
In the afternoon, Lin Quan rushed to Zixufang City.
After transforming into an ordinary middle-aged monk with the "Hundred Illusion Mask" in a no-man's land, Lin Quan easily rented a cave for himself again under a pseudonym. Although this cave mansion will be idle for most of the time in the future, the current Lin Quan will not care too much about that bit of spirit stone at all, his purpose is just to get a place for his new identity to settle down.
With the ten-layer cultivation of condensation as the foundation, coupled with the change of appearance, Lin Quan can also shop a little more freely in Fang City. In this way, in less than two hours in the afternoon, he successfully purchased a lot of useful spirit grasses and spirit grass seeds, including several auxiliary spirit grasses needed to refine the Spirit Condensation Pill. By now, he had collected almost all the auxiliary medicines for refining the Spirit Condensing Pill, and according to the Dan Fang, the remaining spirit grasses were not very rare, and Lin Quan was confident that he would be able to buy them all in the future.
After purchasing the seeds and spirit grass, Lin Quan bought a lot of refining materials by the way. Considering that he could refine weapons at any time in the future, he simply spent a sum of spirit stones to purchase five primary-level "Jade Pure Bottles" and "Red Flame Bottles" respectively. These two storage artifacts with the effect of space Sumeru are still quite practical for refiners.
On the third day, Lin Quan changed his face again and came to wander in the market. Only this time he didn't wander around the ordinary small stalls, but set his sights on some big shops.
What he wanted to buy most now was a living soul, and at least a first-order high-level living soul, if there was a top-level living soul, of course it would be better. Now Lin Quan already has the ability to refine a first-order top-level puppet on his own, but now he only lacks the soul of a first-order top-level demon beast. In order to make the puppet he refined really come in handy, Lin Quan was already ready to break the bank.
It's a pity that when he searched the major shops in Zixufang City for a whole morning, he couldn't do it. Later, he inquired a little and realized that the Purple Void Sect was not the kind of sect that mainly focused on ghost path exercises, so things such as soul creatures that were only suitable for ghost cultivators were not common in the market. Even if there were, most of them were elementary and intermediate, and they couldn't get into Lin Quan's eyes at all. In desperation, he could only reluctantly buy ten intermediate souls and two high-level souls in the end, he had already thought about it, if it really didn't work, this time he could only use these garbage goods to make do with the "soul melting" technique, and then go to other nearby markets after three months.
It may be for the sake of Lin Quan that Lin Quan spent sixty spirit stones at a high price to buy these living souls that few people care about, and the shopkeeper finally told Lin Quan three methods.
The first is to go to the most famous "Purple Void Hundred Treasure Pavilion" in Zixufang City to have a look. This shop is opened by the Purple Void Gate, and the items inside are naturally everything.
The second is to run a little more and go to the "Manshanfang City" thousands of miles away, which is a well-known free and large-scale market in the Great Zheng Kingdom, where many ghost cultivators and demon cultivators will go to conduct various transactions.
The third is to hunt some top-level demon beasts by himself to extract their souls.
After thinking about it for a while, Lin Quan finally chose the first method. Because his time is precious now, let alone the "Manshanfang City" thousands of miles away, even if it is thousands of miles away, he can't go at all. As for the third method, he went to hunt the top-level demon beasts to extract the souls, which would be even more unrealistic, not to mention that there were no such hunting places nearby, even if he had his current cultivation, he would not take the risk of doing such a thing. Moreover, he had never practiced the Ghost Dao Technique, so even if he encountered a top-level demon beast that had just died, he could only sigh.
Under the guidance of the shopkeeper, Lin Quan quickly followed the main road to the gate of the "Purple Void Hundred Treasure Pavilion".
"Purple Void Treasure Pavilion" is also worthy of being the most famous shop in the entire Purple Void Fang City. Just from the outside, you can already feel its high-end and atmosphere. There were a lot of monks coming in and out, and everyone looked very satisfied. This discovery made Lin Quan feel reassured, and it seemed that it was indeed a good choice to come here to take a look.
Smiling slightly, Lin Quan stepped into the door unhurriedly.
As soon as he stepped into the hall on the first floor of the Purple Void Hundred Treasure Pavilion, Lin Quan was slightly shocked by the scene in front of him, and he continued to secretly praise the extraordinaryness of this Hundred Treasure Pavilion in his heart.
I saw that the spacious and bright hall on the first floor was placed with a large counter made of nine pineapple woods. Inside, all the items stored are high-quality products, which are clearly distinguished from the items in the ordinary counters around them. In addition, there were seven or eight purple-clothed attendants who were constantly greeting the monks who came to trade, carefully explaining to them in detail.
Lin Quan took a cursory look, and he found that the nine large counters were listed in categories with many commonly used items in the immortal cultivation world, from various materials to talismans, pills, magic weapons, puppets, and so on. What surprised Lin Quan the most was that the waiters hired by this Hundred Treasure Pavilion were all immortal cultivators with spiritual roots, it turned out that those waiters who were busy in front of the ordinary counter had mid-stage condensation cultivation, as for the purple-clothed waiters around the nine-section boutique counter, they even had late-stage condensation cultivation, and even the two maids standing at the door doing the welcome work had the cultivation of the third layer of condensation. Although their cultivation was nothing in Lin Quan's eyes, it could be regarded as a precedent when looking at the entire Purple Void Fang City.
Seeing this, Lin Quan couldn't help but bow slightly. Being able to afford to invite so many immortal cultivators to serve as waiters on the one hand shows that the owner of the Hundred Treasure Pavilion is wealthy, and on the other hand, it also has an invisible deterrent effect.
At this time, a sharp-eyed purple-clothed waiter had just completed a transaction. Then I found Lin Quan, the Great Perfection monk, looking around. So, the purple-clothed waiter, who looked ordinary but was born with a clever appearance, hurried over with a smile on his face: "This Taoist friend doesn't know what magic weapons he wants to buy, do you need a little help to introduce it?"
"Well, that's fine. The contemptible people need to acquire a batch of first-order demon beast souls, and the more the number, the better. However, it was explained in advance that as long as the soul of the top-level demon beast was born, the rest did not need to be taken out. Lin Quan said bluntly after a little hesitation.
"Oh, do you want the soul of a first-order top-level demon beast, and it seems that there are quite a few of them that Daoist friends need......" After hearing Lin Quan's request, the waiter was obviously stunned. While looking at Lin Quan suspiciously, he repeated the request that Lin Quan had just made as if he was a little disbelieving.
"Not bad. The contemptible man is indeed going to acquire the souls of a batch of first-order top-level demon beasts!Do you think the contemptible man is joking casually? Hmph!" After seeing the waiter's strange eyes, Lin Quan also secretly beat a drum in his heart, wondering if he had inadvertently said something wrong. But at this time, he couldn't allow himself to retreat, so Lin Quan could only pretend to be casual and repeat it, and finally snorted heavily to show his dissatisfaction.
"Ah, fellow Daoist, don't get me wrong. In fact, this kind of thing has always been a chicken rib that no one cares about in our Purple Void Fang City, and generally speaking, only ghost cultivators will often use it, and Daoyou obviously does not have a trace of yin energy and ghost intent on his body, so the little one is a little surprised for a while. Seeing Lin Quan's sudden anger, the clever waiter's face suddenly turned pale, and he hurriedly explained while accompanying the smiling face, for fear that Lin Quan would be a little dissatisfied.
You must know that the rules of the Purple Void Hundred Treasure Pavilion are extremely strict, and any waiter who neglects a distinguished guest will be punished extremely severely by the pavilion master for any reason. In the most serious cases, they will be expelled immediately and will never be hired. This waiter was just an ordinary person, and he didn't want to lose this lucrative job because of such a trivial matter.
"Hmm, then do you have any souls that you Baibao Pavilion need?" Seeing that this waiter was suddenly frightened by himself, although he didn't know why, Lin Quan was also a little reluctant in his heart. So he could only say a noncommittal "hmm" and no longer pursue anything. Originally, Lin Quan just wanted to relieve the uneasiness in his heart with that cold snort, and he didn't really have the intention of blaming the waiter in his heart.
Seeing that Lin Quan was no longer angry, the clever waiter secretly relieved his heart. He continued to explain while respectfully guiding Lin Quan to the stairs on the second floor: "Of course, we have the Hundred Treasure Pavilion if we have a soul, and both the quality and quantity are the best in the entire Purple Void Fang City. However, this kind of item is not on the first floor, please move it to the second floor, and the Cai Steward of this pavilion will receive you personally. ”
"That's fine. ”
Under the leadership of the clever waiter, Lin Quan went directly to the second floor.
The layout of the entire second floor is completely different from that of the first floor, at a glance, the entire second floor is composed of exquisite small living rooms, after a rough estimate, Lin Quan found that there are at least seventeen or eighteen of the same small halls on the second floor, and the doors of three of the small halls are shrouded in a faint forbidden light, and it seems that there are three distinguished guests trading inside.
"Xiao Ni greets the distinguished guests, please go to the hall with the little maid to serve tea first, and the steward will come later. ”
After Lin Quan went upstairs, the left-most of the seven or eight purple maids standing on both sides of the stairs immediately walked over with a smile on his face. When she got Lin Quan's consent, the handsome maid led Lin Quan into the same small hall.
