Protagonist:

Xu Zhangqing

Lin Shan hurriedly opened his storage bag, taking things out one by one as he explained: "Xu Dao Friend, although our Qingyue Mountain isn't particularly rich in products, there are a few unique things—see if you can trade them for spirit stones."

This is dried Yuexin Grass; it can be refined into Qingxin Pills and can also serve as talisman paper material.

This jade bottle contains Mountain Root Spirit Liquid, gathered over half a year; it can be used to repair spiritual arrays, though the more damage there is, the more is needed.

There's also a Thousand-Jin Red Copper Ingot, mined from the mountain veins; it can be forged into spirit tools and magic tools."

Xu Zhangqing used magic power to control them, letting these things float in front, and the three observed them closely.

Yuexin Grass, overall light blue in color.

About half a chi tall, stems as thin as fingers, and a bit sticky to the touch.

Mountain Root Spirit Liquid, like melted glazed glass.

When packed away it was one whole mass, but when poured out it turned into round liquid beads.

The red copper ingot, about three cun long, two cun wide, and half a cun thick.

Heavier than ordinary copper ingots, the surface polished very smooth, with faint patterns visible.

For now, these three things are all quite good.

At least over in Dongyu, only the red copper ingot is occasionally seen.

The other two are almost specialties of this side, nowhere else to be found.

Zhao He also came forward, even untying the dagger at his waist: "This is a Demon-Breaking Dagger I refined from red copper, a high-grade spirit weapon, able to break demon flesh."

I once stabbed three Blood-Eyed Owls to death with it; if you don't mind, I'll include it as well."

For them, things they could take out to trade were truly not many.

First, planting requires professional personnel; although there is currently a group of ordinary people, they have no spiritual roots and cannot control spiritual energy or spiritual power, so the effect isn't very good.

As for mining, although it's just physical labor, ordinary people are very slow at it, and what's more, there's also forging iron and casting, which take even more time.

As for Mountain Root Spirit Liquid, although gathering this stuff isn't very difficult, the key is that there's only a tiny bit per day, and only a small bottle per year.

Xu Zhangqing took it and played with it casually.

In terms of forging, thanks to the system's help, he is now very powerful.

For now, although the forging technique of this dagger is mediocre, overall it's passable, with five spirit patterns engraved with five spiritual runes.

From appearance to quality it's acceptable, and could fetch a good price.

After looking it over, he had a clear idea in mind, then lifted it and shook it.

The next second, Yu Shi's voice sounded beside his ear: "The goods are passable."

Xu Zhangqing smiled: "Fine, count this one in as well."

Sun Yue saw that the man before them wanted everything, and after thinking it over, she held out a small tin can: "Inside are Cloud-Top Spirit Sprouts I gathered myself, a kind of spirit tea; drinking it can slow the loss of spiritual power, and counts as one of our few rare items."

Xu Zhangqing had some knowledge of spirit tea, after all he had drunk Youlan Mist Tea and Jade Dew Spirit Sprouts, so he took it in hand and smelled it.

These Cloud-Top Spirit Sprouts are unlike other spirit teas; they don't have an overpowering fragrance.

Instead, there is a faint, secluded fragrance, then gradually spreading through the nasal cavity.

Although he hadn't drunk it, it was indeed a good thing, and must be accepted.

Yuexin Grass and Mountain Root Spirit Liquid are useful to pill masters and array masters.

The red copper ingot can be cast into spirit tools and magic tools.

The Demon-Breaking Dagger's forging technique is mediocre, but it wins on practicality.

Cloud-Top Spirit Sprouts can be given as gifts.

It must be said, they are indeed all very useful.

Xu Zhangqing nodded: "I'll take all the goods, and I'll give you some spirit rice in return."

Roughly equivalent to one thousand middle-grade spirit stones, or ten thousand low-grade spirit stones—how about it?"

Lin Shan seemed a bit hesitant: "We can certainly do it, but calculating it, you'd be at a loss, sir!"

Zhao He glanced sideways at his senior brother, obviously not expecting the other to say what was on his mind.

Sun Yue even covered her forehead with her hand, looking somewhat pained.

Seeing the other's honest and simple appearance, Xu Zhangqing chuckled and asked: "What do you suggest we do?"

Lin Shan seemed not to notice his junior brother and junior sister's reactions, and after careful consideration, he took out another thing, looking like some kind of seal: "This is one of the Shan Zhen Jiu Yin; with it one can enter the Shan Zhen Mi Jing, inside which there are many rare spirit plants and mineral veins."

We can't go anyway, so why not sell it all to you together."

Zhao He got anxious and couldn't help but say: "Senior brother, this is the reward our master gave you!"

Lin Shan glanced at his junior brother and junior sister, then said seriously: "In a few more days, the Shan Zhen Mi Jing will open; rather than letting it rot in hand, it's better to entrust it to a suitable person."

His words had come to this point, and Zhao He and Sun Yue were suddenly speechless.

If the few of them followed Xu Zhangqing and the others, they would have this time and opportunity.

But in the end they chose to stay behind, guarding this Qingyue Mountain.

Xu Zhangqing didn't decline; after taking all the things, he handed over the spirit stones and spirit rice.

Sun Yue took the spirit stones, turned around, and flew away, looking quite urgent.

Zhao He touched his empty waist, then sneered a little, but wasn't reluctant.

The spiritual array can protect everyone's safety, far stronger than a mere spirit tool.

After the trade, Lin Shan suddenly thought of something, took out a spirit talisman engraved with the two characters "Qingyue" and handed it over, while introducing: "Xu Dao Friend, this is my Qingyue Sect's communication talisman."

"If you need manpower, or need to trade goods, it can contact us."

Xu Zhangqing put away the Communication Talisman, then cupped his hands: "It's getting late, we still have to hurry to the Gathering Point, so we'll part ways here."

Lin Shan nodded vigorously: "Farewell then!"

At once, Xu Zhangqing, Spirit Rong Night, and Lu Wu turned and returned to Broken Moon Flowing Frost.

After watching them leave, Lin Shan and Zhao He flew back to Qingyue Mountain.

Inside Broken Moon Flowing Frost, Xu Zhangqing took out one of the Shan Zhen Jiu Yin from just now, looked at everyone with a grin, and said: "Who's buying?"

Su Jinli was startled: "You're not going to the Secret Realm?"

Hu Bugui at the side chuckled: "You might not know, but ever since Lao Xu joined the Immortal Sect, he hasn't been to a single Secret Realm, hasn't participated in a single battle."

As soon as these words came out, everyone except Zhao Ziyue was speechless.

Spirit Rong Night said in surprise: "The previous Calamity Cultivator... Spirit Insect Cultivator......"

Hu Bugui blinked: "Think carefully, did he make a move back then?"

Spirit Rong Night recalled carefully, then cursed: "Damn it, from coming out until now, he only stuck on a single talisman!"

A few days later.

Xu Zhangqing and the others were getting closer and closer to Dongting Immortal Sect's Gathering Point.

However, all along the way, situations similar to Qingyue Sect were countless.

Either small sects guarding Spiritual Arrays.

Or cultivators bringing mortals to hide in caves.

The situation in the Central Region was even worse than they had imagined.

Until the evening of the third day, a dense patch of Spiritual Light appeared in the distance.

As they got closer, various Flying Ships, Flying Shuttles, Flying Boats were countless.

Xu Zhangqing even saw his very familiar Travel Tool, Big Leaf Grass.

Spinning dizzyingly in the air, from afar it looked like a bamboo dragonfly.

A gold-and-yellow two-colored Spiritual Array enveloped a large area ahead.

The four characters "Dongting Immortal Sect" emerged clearly on it, emitting a powerful deterrent force.

Obviously, everyone had finally arrived at the Central Region's Gathering Point.

When they drew near, they saw many Flying Shuttles patrolling.

On the ground, rows of houses were set up, looking continuous and unending.

There were mortals here too, and many were sheltered; as far as the eye could see it was dense.

Xu Zhangqing couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, exclaiming: "We've finally arrived!"
