Protagonist:

Xu Zhangqing

The giant flying sword lightly inserted into the flying crossing point.

Xu Zhangqing followed the stairway, step by step arriving on the loose cultivator market's street.

He vaguely remembered that when he last left, deep in the Black Forest outside Dongqing City, something very serious seemed to have occurred.

Now arriving again, he instead discovered this place had returned to its previous appearance; pedestrians were leisurely, the atmosphere relatively relaxed, without a trace of nervousness.

Xu Zhangqing raised his brows, secretly thinking: "Judging by the looks of it, the matter has been resolved."

Although he had already arrived at Dongqing City, even right at the loose cultivator market.

But it was still the same old routine; the first thing upon landing was to first find an inn to disguise himself, then investigate today's spirit rice market conditions.

After confirming there were no mistakes, he would then meet with the Sun Family's people.

Very quickly, right near the flying crossing point, Xu Zhangqing found an inn called 【Wangxiang】, selecting an ordinary room on the second floor leaning left.

One low-grade spirit stone could lodge for three days.

Then he hid the Lightly Vitality Gourd away, switching to the small storage bag that the vast majority of loose cultivators used.

Immediately after, he changed out of the immortal sect disciple's white attire, and pasted an eight-character fake beard on himself.

With such a disguise, he quickly transformed from a lofty immortal sect disciple into a commonplace loose cultivator whose eyes were full of a haggard look.

Very quickly, Xu Zhangqing left the inn and began visiting the surrounding spirit rice trading points one by one.

And as he inquired at one household after another, he had already confirmed the loose cultivator market's spirit rice prices for today.

First-grade spirit rice had three qualities: inferior, high-quality, and top-grade.

Inferior ratio was 1:6.

High-quality ratio was 1:5.

Top-grade ratio was 1:3.

Meaning, one low-grade spirit stone could exchange for how many jin of first-grade spirit rice.

As for second-grade spirit rice, compared to the last time he came, there had been some changes.

Likewise three qualities: inferior, high-quality, and top-grade.

Inferior was 1:1.4.

High-quality was 1:1.3.

Top-grade was 1:1.2.

The price of top-grade spirit rice produced from second-grade spirit fields was more expensive than before.

Xu Zhangqing stood inside a spirit rice trading point permeated with the fragrance of rice, secretly thinking: "If I remember correctly, last time the top-grade ratio was 1:1.3."

It only appears 0.1 more expensive, but in reality it reveals a piece of information.

That is, the quantity of top-grade spirit rice in the loose cultivator market right now should be extremely low.

Precisely because of this, the less there is, the higher the price.

After confirming there were no mistakes, Xu Zhangqing still did not rush to meet the Sun Family people.

Right at this spirit rice trading point, he spent 358 low-grade spirit stones to buy five hundred jin of high-quality spirit rice produced from second-grade spirit fields.

Loose cultivators drinking spirit rice wine naturally couldn't use their own top-grade spirit rice, so they could only conveniently buy some high-quality spirit rice from the loose cultivator market side to brew wine.

Compared to the immortal sect, the loose cultivator market's prices were cheaper, and when there were promotions, the more you bought, the more extra would be gifted.

After finishing the purchase, Xu Zhangqing still did not go find the Sun Family people to meet, but instead took the opportunity to come to the neighboring 【Dongqing Trading Hall】 to look at fire attribute cultivation methods and spells.

The female receptionist smiled and stepped forward: "What does Immortal Master need to buy?"

Xu Zhangqing waved his hand: "If there's a problem I'll look for you."

He wasn't here for the first time; he knew the specific process.

He went directly to an unoccupied Mirror of Reflection and injected his fire spirit power into it.

Instantly, the Mirror of Reflection rippled with white light.

Then rows of characters emerged.

Such as 【Monster Core】 【Lingti】 【Cultivation Method】 etc.

Xu Zhangqing clicked Cultivation Method, immediately jumping to the spiritual root aspect.

Common spiritual roots were metal, wood, water, fire, earth.

There were also mutant spirit roots like ice, lightning, wind and such.

However, the numbers under mutant spirit roots were all "0".

This indicated that whether low-rank or fragmented editions, there wasn't a single one.

The most numerous were still the common five elements spiritual roots, many had dozens of volumes, few also had ten-odd volumes.

Of course, these cultivation methods and spells were all fragmented editions; any complete cultivation methods and spells would flow into the auction house, letting people compete and bid.

Xu Zhangqing first glanced at the cultivation methods and spells in the wood spirit root.

Discovering no difference from last time, he instantly lost all interest.

Therefore he backed out, clicked fire spirit root again, and immediately 8 low-rank cultivation methods and spells and 3 high-rank cultivation methods and spells popped out.

Low-rank cultivation methods 3:

【Scarlet Flame Art】 Fragmented Edition

【Fire Crow Qi Nurturing Method】 Fragmented Edition

【Earth Fire Guide】Fragmented Edition

8 Low Rank Techniques:

Fireball Technique, Flame Shield Technique, Blood Burning Escape, Blinding Eye Technique

Earth Fire Spray, Fire Snake Binding, Explosive Flame Talisman Hand, Scorching Wind Step

2 High Rank Cultivation Methods:

【Li Fire True Classic】Fragmented Edition

Effect: Refines "Li Fire" Spiritual Power, Extremely High Temperature but difficult to control.

Flaw: Lacks "Fire Seed Nurturing" chapter, Foundation Establishment Late Stage prone to Spiritual Power deviation.

【Nine Flames Mysterious Technique】Fragmented Edition

Effect: Cultivates through Nine Layers of flame colors, each layer has different flame properties.

Flaw: Only first four layers Red, Orange, Yellow, Blue remain, subsequent layers lost.

1 High Rank Technique:

【Blazing Yang Finger】Fragmented Edition

Effect: Fingertip condenses ultimate high temperature, pierces Defense.

Flaw: Lacks "Finger Force Becomes Rainbow" long-range technique.

After Xu Zhangqing finished reading, he was shocked in his heart: "So this is Fire Attribute Technique and Technique?"

Although they are Fragmented Editions, just looking at them they are very Powerful.

After thinking it over, he bought 【Fire Crow Qi Nurturing Method】【Nine Flames Mysterious Technique】【Blazing Yang Finger】.

1 Low Rank Cultivation Method Fragmented Edition.

1 High Rank Cultivation Method Fragmented Edition.

1 High Rank Technique Fragmented Edition.

However, although all are Fragmented Editions, the price was not low.

Except 【Fire Crow Qi Nurturing Method】 only used 60 Low-grade Spirit Stones.

【Nine Flames Mysterious Technique】 and 【Blazing Yang Finger】 added up, a full thirty-eight Middle-grade Spirit Stones.

Low Rank Cultivation Methods and Techniques, only apply to Qi Refining Stage and Foundation Establishment Stage.

While High Rank Cultivation Methods and Techniques, apply to Foundation Establishment Stage to Golden Core Stage.

Even in Nascent Soul Stage, if lacking good Cultivation Methods, can barely use them.

When leaving 【Dongqing Trading Hall】, Xu Zhangqing was extremely excited.

Until this moment, he finally experienced the Benefit of Multiple Spirit Roots.

Single Spirit Root although Cultivation fast, but also limited to Single Spirit Root.

While Multiple Spirit Roots Cultivation Speed slow, yet can utilize multiple attribute Techniques.

The female receptionist said with a beaming smile: "Respectfully seeing off Immortal Master, Expectation you Next Time visit!"

……

……

Subsequently, Xu Zhangqing used Communication Talisman to contact Sun Peng.

Told the other party, he had already Arrived at Loose Cultivator Market.

But This Time, the other party changed a place, not at Sun Family Manor Transaction, instead at Loose Cultivator Market most Prosperous Street.

Although changed location, Xu Zhangqing did not get angry.

He speculated, should be related to soon-to-open Wine Shop, therefore walked toward agreed Place.

Fortunately Distance not far, just over one Thousand Meters or so, Not Long After Arrived.

"Sun Family opening Wine Shop?"

"Heard it is!"

"Just don't know how the taste?"

"This is at least Sun Family opened Wine Shop, Wine Water definitely not bad."

"Spoken also true!"

Xu Zhangqing just arrived this Street, heard Surrounding people discussing animatedly.

And content, all related to Sun Family soon-to-open Wine Shop!!!
