Luo Jun heaved a sigh of relief as he watched Han Li carve out a massive crater that was around an acre in size somewhere in this secluded cave abode. He then placed the piece of spirit field into the crater, and he let loose a hearty laugh.
"Haha, Fellow Daoist Han's divine strength is world-shocking and far exceeds my expectations. Seeing is believing a hundred times. I'm impressed!"
"Mr. Luo is too kind.
Since the test is over, can you talk to me about business? "Hearing the praise of the other party, Han Li asked with a faint smile.
"Cough!
Friend Han must be joking, how could I have such a thought.
By the way, as a guest elder of the sect, you don't actually need to do anything. Every year, the sect will give 50,000 spirit stones and some elixirs for cultivation.
However, this year's elixir distribution has passed, so you can only wait until next year to receive it.
This is your token. There is a map of the sect and some simple introductions about each peak. Also, this is the year's offering, a total of 80,000 spirit stones. The extra 30,000 is a little gift from peak master Nangong. "
Luo Jun awkwardly smiled and changed the topic. At the same time, he took out a sparkling golden command medallion and an azure storage pouch and handed them over to Han Li.
When Gu Yunyue heard the words, she looked at Han Li with a complicated expression. What Elder Luo said just now was the treatment that only the elders of the Soul Formation Stage in the sect could receive.
Judging from Han Li's performance along the way, he did have this qualification.
"Thank you very much.
May I know if the sect distributes the Wangxi Pill every year, or is there another way to get it? "Han Li thanked him, took the token and spirit stones, and asked casually.
"Oh, the Wangxi Pill Sect occasionally distributes it. Although it has an excellent healing effect, it has no effect on cultivation after all. Some people will still take it out to trade in the sect market, but most of them will be exchanged quickly. It is not easy to get." Luo Jun replied very familiarly.
"It seems I'll have to try my luck," Han Li said with a pensive look on his face.
Luo Jun didn't stay here for long. After chatting for a while, he left with Gu Yunyue and Yu Menghan.
In the following time, Han Li activated all the enchantments in the cave house area, then he took Liu Le 'er around the cave house, arranged a bedroom for her, and let her have a good rest before leaving the cave house.
After the time it took for an incense stick to burn, Han Li appeared in a valley several kilometers away from Cloud Emergence Peak.
At the entrance of the valley stood a white stone archway, engraved with three large vermilion words "Easy Valley". Below the archway, a wide bluestone street followed the path of the valley, extending into the valley.
This Tongyi Valley was the Sect's market that Luo Jun had previously mentioned. Before entering the valley, he could already hear the clamor of a secular market.
After Han Li stopped for a while at the entrance of the valley, he walked forward. When he came under the arch, most of the scene in the valley was reflected in his eyes.
The streets here were generally sloping upwards, and both sides of the streets were lined with shops and houses. All the shops were built according to the terrain of the mountains, and there were all kinds of banners hung outside, making it look like a bustling city in the secular world.
At this moment, it was afternoon, and the place was bustling with people going in and out of various shops. It was very lively.
Han Li randomly picked a rather stylish elixir shop and walked in. After a while, he walked out expressionlessly and continued to walk to the next shop.
He went to five or six large elixir shops in a row, but he didn't even see the shadow of a Wangxi Pill. He only learned from one of the shops that the last pill was received two months ago, and it was exchanged on the day it was put on the shelf.
As a result, after spending half a day, Han Li almost walked through more than half of the Tongyi Valley, but he still found nothing.
After leaving a small shop, Han Li didn't continue to hurry towards the back of the valley. Instead, he leisurely walked towards a secluded corner. Halfway there, he suddenly turned around and coldly said to a large tree not far away, "That's right.
"Sir has been following me for half a day since I entered the valley. Do you have any advice?"
"Sir, please don't be angry. It's a misunderstanding, a misunderstanding."
A dry laugh sounded from behind the tree. An old man in a grey robe walked around the tree trunk and walked in front of Han Li.
This person's eyebrows were white, and his face was like a child's. His face was full of spirit, and he looked a bit out of this world.
"Misunderstanding?" Han Li felt the other party's Soul Formation Stage cultivation and said expressionlessly.
The white bearded old man's expression didn't change, and he said calmly, "I'm Gao Buji, the elder of Dusk Peak. I just happened to find that sir has been searching for the Wangxi Pill, so I followed you for a few steps."
"Dusk Peak?
If I remember correctly, it's the branch in the sect that specializes in refining pills, right?
Sir, could it be that you have the Wangxi Pill in your hands? "Han Li raised his brows and asked.
"Hehe, I do have a Wangxi Pill in my hands, and I also have the intention to trade with someone. It's just that I don't know if there's anything that I need?" Gao Buji glanced at the storage pouch on Han Li's waist and said with a smile.
"I wonder what Elder Gao wants to trade?" Han Li asked without batting an eyelid.
"No rush. I still don't know how to address sir?" Gao Buji wasn't in a hurry to state a price and asked instead.
"I'm Han Li, an outer sect guest of Cloud Protruding Peak.
Now, can Elder Gao tell me what you want to trade? "Han Li asked with a calm expression.
"Cloud Protruding Peak's outer sect guest?
Sir's divine ability is impressive. I actually can't see through sir's cultivation!
But this is all a small matter.
Frigid Yin Profound Water, Blue Crystal Resonating Sand, Milky River Star Stone, or a Lan Ling Flower or Ink Fragrance Grass over three thousand years old … I wonder if Friend Han has one or two of these materials?
As long as you have any of them, you can trade for the Wangxi Pill in my hands, "Gao Buji said as he twirled his beard.
"Elder Gao, are you joking? Which one of these materials isn't an extremely rare spirit material of heaven and earth?
If sir has these things, are you willing to use them to trade for the Wangxi Pill? "Han Li's expression darkened, and he asked in reply.
The white-bearded old man stiffened when he heard this. He immediately revealed an embarrassed expression and didn't say anything.
"Sir, it's better if you say something practical. Otherwise, Han can also buy it with spirit stones," Han Li continued.
Although he didn't gain much just now, he still sold some of the materials and pills he had previously obtained in exchange for a lot of spirit stones. In addition to the spirit stones that Luo Jun had given him before, he had quite a bit of wealth. Of course, the few supreme spirit stones that he had previously obtained were not included in this list.
"Well, since Friend Han has said so, then I'll trade with spirit stones. Just treat it as making a friend with Friend Han.
One Wangxi Pill for two supreme spirit stones, how about it? "Gao Buji pondered for a moment and sighed.
"Elder Gao, aren't you asking for too much?
Even if the Wangxi Pill is rarely sold in this market, the highest price won't exceed six hundred thousand spirit stones. "Han Li frowned, and he looked a little displeased.
"I don't think it's too much. After all, this is the price in this sect's market. If it was taken to an auction outside, it would be difficult to get a price." Gao Buji said unhurriedly.
"How about this, although Han doesn't have the spirit materials you want, he has some other good things on hand. Are you interested?" Han Li pondered for a moment and said.
"Other things?
Friend Han, if it's some common magic treasures, then there's no need to take them out. It's more convenient to settle with spirit stones. "Gao Buji smiled and said.
"Azure Crystal, Myriad Yin Spirit Trap Formation, Soul Yin Ganoderma. Are these things common?" Han Li asked.
These items were all obtained from the storage pouch of the Deity Transformation cultivator surnamed Lu from the Tengui School. Their quality wasn't low, but they weren't of much use to him.
The old man revealed a hesitant expression. After a long while, he reluctantly said, "The first two items are fine. The Soul Yin Ganoderma is somewhat useful.
However, it has to be at least a thousand years old. In addition to the three hundred thousand spirit stones, the Wangxi Pill is yours. "
When Han Li heard this, he turned around and left without the slightest hesitation.
"Friend Han, please wait!"
When Gao Buji saw Han Li suddenly turn to leave, he immediately lost his previous calm appearance and hurriedly called out.
Of course, Han Li didn't really want to leave. He took a few steps forward and stopped at Gao Buji's call. However, he wasn't in a hurry to leave. Instead, he turned around and looked at the old man.
Gao Buji quickly walked forward and smiled awkwardly, "Friend Han, don't be in such a hurry to leave. The price can still be discussed. However, I don't know if you can let me take a look at the Soul Yin Ganoderma?"
