Protagonist:
Xu Zhangqing
The female receptionist's smile was very sweet: "Immortal Master, if you haven't decided yet, you can tell me your requirements so I can recommend more accurately."
Xu Zhangqing asked: "Do they come with pill formulas?"
The female receptionist nodded: "Of course. 【Xuanbing Spirit Furnace】 comes with a beginner pill-refining technique book, and 【Starfall Secret Gold Cauldron】 comes with a 【Foundation Spirit Pill】 pill formula."
If at first Xu Zhangqing had still been hesitant, now he had already made up his mind.
Although 【Xuanbing Spirit Furnace】 was cheaper, its success rate only increased by one-tenth, and its medicinal efficacy by two-tenths.
As for 【Starfall Secret Gold Cauldron】, not only did its success rate increase by two-tenths, but its medicinal efficacy also increased by three-tenths.
Crucially, it came with a 【Foundation Spirit Pill】 pill formula, and in terms of looks it appealed to him more.
For an entry-level "Pill Furnace," Xu Zhangqing was more inclined toward 【Starfall Secret Gold Cauldron】.
But he wasn't in a rush to buy it yet; he still needed to check out the artifact-refining equipment, and settle everything together at the end.
Soon, the female receptionist led him to another area.
Pill refining and artifact refining were separate, not placed together.
Compared to pill refining, which only needed one pill furnace, the artifact-refining equipment alone numbered more than three types.
Xu Zhangqing mused: "Recommend me a set of entry-level artifact-refining equipment."
The female receptionist pointed to a set nearby and said:
【Chitian Forging Hammer】, made of Chitian iron, heavy hammer head, strikes produce high heat to help melt metal materials, price 18 low-grade Spirit Stones.
【Green Carp Carving Knife】, blade made of Green Carp jade, sharp and containing faint Spirit Patterns, can carve spiritual runes onto refining materials, price 25 low-grade Spirit Stones.
【Yellow Brass Crucible】, heat-resistant, can be used to smelt various metals and ores, price 9 low-grade Spirit Stones.
Xu Zhangqing heard this and asked: "What about molds?"
The female receptionist immediately answered: "【Basic Mold】 set, 1 middle-grade Spirit Stone; 【Ordinary Spirit Tool Mold】 set, 3 middle-grade Spirit Stones; 【Ordinary Magic Tool Mold】 set, 7 middle-grade Spirit Stones."
Xu Zhangqing asked what he cared about most: "What's given for free?"
The female receptionist showed her cute little fangs: "Gifted 【Refining Tool Beginner Tutorial】 worth 15 low-grade Spirit Stones, 【Spirit Pattern Basic Explanation】 worth 25 low-grade Spirit Stones, and 【Simple Spirit Tool Refining Diagram】 worth 35 low-grade Spirit Stones."
Xu Zhangqing said seriously: "【Starfall Secret Gold Cauldron】 plus one set of entry-level artifact-refining equipment, and one set 【Basic Mold】, one set 【Ordinary Spirit Tool Mold】. Give me a good price!"
The female receptionist's eyes brightened: "If you spend over 10 middle-grade Spirit Stones at once, you will automatically become a High-level Member of our 【Yu Ding Zhai】, enjoy a ten-percent discount. Now you only need to pay 11 middle-grade Spirit Stones, and you'll get a three-year warranty."
Xu Zhangqing raised his eyebrows: "11 middle-grade Spirit Stones plus 52 low-grade Spirit Stones, no matter how you calculate it, a ten-percent discount should be 10 middle-grade Spirit Stones, right?"
The female receptionist's smile didn't change: "There's my service fee inside!"
Xu Zhangqing didn't want to quibble, waved his hand and said: "It doesn't matter, you guys hurry up and do it."
"Got it!" The female receptionist turned and left.
Just like that, Xu Zhangqing spent 11 middle-grade Spirit Stones.
Acquired one 【Starfall Secret Gold Cauldron】.
One set of artifact-refining equipment.
One set 【Basic Mold】.
One set 【Ordinary Spirit Tool Mold】.
One 【Foundation Spirit Pill】 pill formula.
And 【Refining Tool Beginner Tutorial】 【Spirit Pattern Basic Explanation】 【Simple Spirit Tool Refining Diagram】.
Everything settled, under the female receptionist's seeing-off, he walked out of 【Yu Ding Zhai】.
Now, the things he needed had all been purchased.
Plus, he didn't need to come here to deliver rice and wine before the New Year anymore.
Therefore, from now until the New Year period, he could focus on his own Spirit Field.
Xu Zhangqing strolled along the road of the Loose Cultivator market, surrounded by Loose Cultivators hurrying about.
He didn't know if it had something to do with winter, but even the stalls had decreased.
"Time to go drink flower wine!"
……
……
【Yixiang Pavilion】 was still the same as before, lively, crowded, good atmosphere.
Filled with a nose-assaulting fragrance.
Compared to last time he came, there was a new batch of faces again.
But in terms of quality, it hadn't declined.
Whether music courtesans, dance courtesans, apprentice courtesans, or even male courtesans, their looks were all very high.
In the past, those with slightly inferior looks were all arranged on the first floor to receive guests.
Second floor, third floor, the higher up, the higher the looks and the better the quality.
But now, many people with decent looks were actually arranged on the first floor.
Xu Zhangqing was surrounded by a group of beautiful girls and brought up to the second floor, looking at the rows of high-quality courtesans before him, he found it unbelievable: "This is what can be chosen on the second floor?"
In the past, this kind of quality, looks, and figure would at least require going to the third floor.
But now, not to mention the second floor, even the first floor had quite a few.
He felt that 【Yixiang Pavilion】's current quality and number of people seemed to have increased.
Afterwards, Xu Zhangqing selected a slightly youthful beauty.
She had a very pleasant name, called Yue'er.
Her brows resembled newly cut willow leaves.
Her eyes resembled spring pool water immersed in spring.
Her nose bridge was elegant and straight.
Her lips were red without rouge.
Wrapped in a plain gauze wide-sleeved robe, on the slender fair wrists revealed, hung a small exquisite gold bell.
"Immortal Master, drink wine!" Yue'er tried hard to send flirtatious glances secretly, but her skill was not yet proficient, several times she failed to enter the state, annoying herself until her neck turned red.
Xu Zhangqing took the wine cup, sipped slightly, then asked: "I haven't come for a long time, your Yixiang Pavilion has many newcomers recently."
Yue'er heard this, her eyes instantly dimmed, she explained tenderly: "The throne changed hands, factions were destroyed, we come from the same place."
"Oh?" Xu Zhangqing was surprised.
Yue'er smiled sadly: "Does Immortal Master know, this servant was previously a commandery princess?"
Xu Zhangqing couldn't help but cast his gaze to the Left Side, looking at those fresh faces.
Regardless of what identities, statuses these people had before.
But here, regardless of male or female, there is a unified title.
Prostitute
The only thing they can do is serve the Immortal Masters beside them well.
If by chance they are lucky, redeemed by someone spending money, that also counts as detaching from the sea of suffering.
This night, Xu Zhangqing spent a pleasant night with Yue'er at Yixiang Pavilion.
The next day, he boarded a Giant Flying Sword and returned to Dongting Immortal Sect.
Just as he landed, he saw an acquaintance.
Who?
Still Li Sancai!
This early, he was still fighting on the Arena.
And this time's opponent, was a Fire Spirit Root.
The battle was a one-sided crushed situation from the very beginning.
Fire Controls Wood.
Regardless of Spiritual Root or attribute, both were countered by the opponent.
Even so, Li Sancai still didn't give up, seeking a chance to counterattack.
Then... he actually found one.
A mass of flame burned the vine-formed wall to destruction, but Li Sancai hiding behind disappeared without a trace.
"Hm?"
Just when the Fire Spirit Root was startled and uncertain, underfoot suddenly came a "rustling" sound.
He looked down, and instantly his pupil shrank.
Countless seeds, in the blink of an eye transformed into dense sharp thorn vines.
Starting from the feet, like snakes coiling and pythons wrapping, they wrapped the whole person.
At first, the Fire Spirit Root could still struggle a few times inside.
But not long after he lost all movement.
With a crack, he fell stiffly onto the Arena.
At this time, Li Sancai covered in burns appeared from the other side of the Arena.
But he had neither the joy of victory, nor the pain of injury.
In his eyes, there was only that touch of determination.
"Li Sancai won?"
"During this period, he has lost at least dozens of times!"
"Turning defeat into victory while attribute-countered, powerful!"
The spectators discussed animatedly.
In the corner, Xu Zhangqing had watched the battle just now clearly, murmuring: "Wood Spirit Entanglement Technique Second Layer Cultivation Level!"
