Chapter 584: Temporarily Residing in Changlong

Then the only option left is to go out and hunt demon beasts, using the materials from their bodies to trade for spirit stones; this is the most immediate method.

But the problems in this regard are also quite significant; he is not familiar with this place and doesn't even know where there are demon beasts suitable for him to hunt.

So, truly, the beginning of everything is difficult. Since he has no foundation at all, he can only take it one step at a time. Therefore, he decided not to wander around aimlessly for the time being and to just find a courtyard here to rent and live in.

By staying here for a period of time, he must at least acquire enough spirit stones before considering going to the next place.

After making up his mind, he didn't waste any time and began searching everywhere for a courtyard to rent.

Fortunately, he soon found a small two-story courtyard in the South District, covering an area of about two mu.

Moreover, two ordinary peach trees were planted in the courtyard, growing lush and green, feeling very vibrant.

Most importantly, the entire courtyard was kept quite clean and tidy, so Lin Zhangqing liked this place as soon as he saw it.

After some negotiation with the landlord, he finally rented the entire courtyard for the price of fifty spirit stones per month.

This price is much cheaper than staying in a hotel outside, but for ordinary cultivators, this price is not cheap either! Now that he doesn't have many spirit stones left in his hands, he cannot waste them casually. He went to the grocery store he saw earlier and spent ten spirit stones to buy some daily necessities.

Just like that, Lin Zhangqing could be considered to have temporarily settled down in Changlong Market.

After getting settled, thinking that he didn't have many spirit stones left, he decided to go out and explore the market conditions while it was still early.

First, he found a place and had a meal of spirit cuisine with local maritime characteristics, then he found the Spirit Treasure Pavilion.

This was the largest shop in Changlong Market that he had noticed earlier, and it was very likely an industry of the Myriad Sect Island.

Finding such a shop would definitely be the fastest way to understand the price level of this realm.

When stepping into the Spirit Treasure Pavilion, Lin Zhangqing did not conceal the aura on his body, so the shop clerk inside immediately came up to greet him with a beaming smile.

Then he opened his mouth and said: "Welcome, Senior, to our Spirit Treasure Pavilion. Please go to the second floor to have tea in the elegant room!"

Lin Zhangqing didn't speak, just nodded, and followed the shop clerk to a private room on the second floor to sit down.

After someone served spirit tea, the shop clerk continued to ask: "Senior, I wonder what you need?"

After Lin Zhangqing took a sip of the spirit tea, he said indifferently: "Do you have any pills here suitable for increasing cultivation for the early or mid-stage Foundation Establishment?"

Upon hearing this, the shop clerk hurriedly replied: "Yes, yes. For early-stage Foundation Establishment, there is the Spirit Increasing Pill, and for mid-stage, there is the Ascension Spirit Pill.

These are all high-grade pills personally refined by the alchemists of our Myriad Sect Island, and the quality is absolutely guaranteed.

Among them, the Spirit Increasing Pill is one hundred and twenty spirit stones each, and the Ascension Spirit Pill is three hundred spirit stones each; each bottle contains ten pills.

If you buy a large quantity at once, the price can be slightly cheaper!"

Upon hearing this, Lin Zhangqing frowned slightly. The price was not too different from that of the Xuan Yan Continent; he just didn't know how the effect was. But the problem was that the spirit stones he had on him couldn't buy many second-tier pills, so he asked again: "The price of this pill is a bit expensive!

Do you have second-tier spirit boats here? Introduce them to me roughly!"

The shop clerk was a bit strange, not knowing why he had just asked about pills and was now suddenly switching to spiritual artifacts.

However, he knew he should try his best to answer whatever the guest asked.

So he replied: "The price of the pills is set by the pavilion. Although it is indeed a bit more expensive than outside, at least the quality is guaranteed. We have three types of second-tier spirit boats here, each with its own characteristics, and the price difference is also quite large.

The first type is the second-tier lower-grade Swift Wind Boat. The characteristic of this spirit boat is that the boat body is slender and the speed is particularly fast.

But it can only carry at most three cultivators, and the defensive power is also relatively poor. The price is only six thousand lower-grade spirit stones to buy it.

The second type is the second-tier mid-grade Storm Boat. The characteristic of this spirit boat is that the boat body is sturdy and the defensive power is strong.

Moreover, the individual size is relatively large; it can carry twelve cultivators at once, and even if squeezed, there is no problem in transporting twenty people.

But the disadvantage is that the speed is relatively slow. Although it is a second-tier mid-grade spirit boat, its speed cannot compare to a second-tier lower-grade spirit boat. Its price is ten thousand lower-grade spirit stones.

The last type is the second-tier upper-grade Cloud-Piercing Boat, which combines the advantages of the previous two and basically has no obvious disadvantages, but the price has reached twenty thousand lower-grade spirit stones!

These are the three types. I wonder which spirit boat you like, Senior?"

Lin Zhangqing considered it. After all, his purpose in buying a spirit boat was to use it as a foothold.

In that case, the second-tier Storm Boat with a relatively large individual size was suitable for his actual requirements.

Plus, he had Chu Yi and Chu Er for daily travel, and he could also fly with a sword or use the Wind Thunder Wings himself, so the first and third types were not considered! So he said: "Just the second-tier mid-grade Storm Boat you mentioned!

But I don't have many spirit stones left in my hands. I wonder if you accept second-tier spirit fruits that can increase cultivation here?"

Upon hearing this, the shop clerk was surprised that there was such a good thing, and hurriedly said with a beaming smile: "Accept! Definitely accept!

I will go and get the Storm Boat for you, and by the way, invite the appraiser of the pavilion to come over and take a look for you, and evaluate the price of the spirit fruits in your hands!"

After speaking, he quickly left the private room.

After a while, the shop clerk returned, and also brought a middle-aged Foundation Establishment cultivator.

Then he introduced to Lin Zhangqing: "Senior, this is our Spirit Treasure Pavilion's Appraiser Zhao."

Lin Zhangqing nodded to him; he didn't need an introduction, he knew that the person coming must be the appraiser of the Spirit Treasure Pavilion.

So he directly placed six century-old Vermilion Fruits on the table.

The middle-aged cultivator also nodded to Lin Zhangqing, and also didn't say anything.

He directly picked up one century-old Vermilion Fruit to study it, and then picked up all six on the table and checked them one by one.

Finally, he said to Lin Zhangqing: "Fellow Daoist, these second-tier spirit fruits of yours should be the rare century-old Vermilion Fruits, right! I wonder where you found them, Fellow Daoist?"

Hearing him ask this, Lin Zhangqing couldn't help but frown, looked at him, and said: "Does coming to the Spirit Treasure Pavilion to sell spirit fruits require explaining the origin of the items?"

The middle-aged cultivator hurriedly explained: "No! No! Fellow Daoist, you misunderstood! I didn't mean anything else.

Actually, what I want to ask is, does Fellow Daoist have any interest in selling the Vermilion Fruit tree together? Our Spirit Treasure Pavilion can buy it at a high price!"
