Chapter 197: Wanting Every Magic Treasure
Honghuang uttered that classic line.
“I’m waiting, don’t bully a young man for being poor!”
An Xiu: “Don’t bully a middle-aged man for being poor, don’t bully an old man for being poor. The horizontal inscription is, the dead are the greatest.”
Honghuang: “…Why are you so unconfident? He looks like he’s at most at the Foundation Establishment Stage… Golden Core Stage, I don’t believe I won’t reach the Golden Core Stage one day.”
He said it like that, but his voice got quieter and quieter.
He was afraid that the other party could still hear him from thousands of meters away and come back to strike him with a flying sword.
An Xiu tutted.
Zhang Sheng next to them chuckled, amused by Honghuang and An Xiu.
He was calmer than Honghuang, after all, he often faced discrimination in reality and was somewhat used to it.
The three of them entered the city, still muttering, “This is the first time I’ve encountered this kind of TV drama plot. We didn’t offend him, did we?”
An Xiu: “It’s normal. The other party is a disciple of the Guanhai Sect, just like how some big cities look down on outsiders. This is the cultivation world, you can only listen if someone says a few words to you.”
Don’t expect people in the cultivation world to reason.
Here, whoever has the bigger fist is right.
Honghuang and the others had stayed in their Sect for too long, and now that they were out, they were truly experiencing the dangers of society.
Honghuang sighed heavily, “I can tolerate this, but I can’t tolerate that. Playing a game is more frustrating than in reality!”
An Xiu said coldly, “Quit the game.”
Honghuang grinned, “I was just kidding. If Auntie can’t tolerate it, I can.”
An Xiu: “…”
Zhang Sheng: “…”
Entering Liuxian City, Honghuang perfectly embodied the saying “Liu Lao Lao enters the Grand View Garden.”
Although they had learned about Liuxian City to some extent from Han Tian’s videos, truly entering the city allowed them to experience the shock of buildings soaring into the clouds.
The mortals living here were not as stagnant as those in Wang’an County.
For most mortals, as long as they could eat, living in such a major Sect would bring a sense of satisfaction.
Because the mortals here enjoyed the nourishment of dense spiritual energy, even their physical appearance looked much more energetic than mortals from other small Sects.
Children born in such a state were also more likely to have spiritual descendants.
Following Zhai Xiaotian’s instructions, the three of Honghuang inquired about the location of the True Treasure Pavilion in Liuxian City.
The mortals in Liuxian City were still easy to talk to, and the True Treasure Pavilion was somewhat famous. Upon asking, someone pointed the way: “True Treasure Pavilion? There’s one called True Treasure Pavilion on Huaxian Street. Immortals can go there to inquire.”
Honghuang subconsciously thanked the mortal in front of him, “Thank you.”
The mortal in Liuxian City was stunned and looked at Honghuang and the others in disbelief.
Even after Honghuang and the others had walked away, they were still immersed in the shock of that ‘thank you.’
It was unbelievable that a cultivator would express gratitude to a mortal.
Truly, truly, heaven help us!
After all, even the mortals in Liuxian City were only slightly better off than mortals elsewhere.
In terms of status, they were all treated equally in front of cultivators.
Honghuang and the others arrived at Huaxian Street, which was the commercial street for cultivators in Liuxian City. There were all sorts of shops selling spirit beasts, spirit materials, and magic treasures.
However, these were mostly branch stores of major Sects similar in level to the Guanhai Sect. The stores of super major Sects like the Xuecang Sect could occupy an entire street.
They were on additional land.
For example, the famous Star Picking Tower of the Xuecang Sect in the city.
One had to be cautious when buying things here, as it was a real-name system. With this face, one couldn’t act like they were smuggling.
The three of them followed the directions and found the True Treasure Pavilion.
From the outside, the shop didn’t look remarkable.
Only a few magic treasures were simply displayed on the shelves at the entrance. Judging by the light they emitted, they were all Profound Grade and Earth Grade.
There were even a few Mortal Grade items.
This was quite incredible. Mortal Grade items were for Qi Condensation cultivators, but most were not very useful.
The rent for shops in Liuxian City was so expensive. Selling these wouldn’t even cover the costs. They should be the kind of items sold at small stalls.
Guarding the entrance was a particularly beautiful female cultivator.
Seeing someone enter, she smiled and stood up, not showing any neglect despite the three being at the Qi Refining Stage: “What would guests like to buy?”
It was the first time Honghuang and the other two had come to the Magic Treasure Pavilion, but the magic treasures on the shelves were not exactly dazzling.
Mortal Grade items were out of the question, Earth Grade items were unaffordable, and there were too few styles of Profound Grade items.
An Xiu then asked, “Do you have any other Profound Grade magic treasures?”
Nan Qi glanced at the Profound Grade magic treasures displayed on the shelves and introduced, “There are attack-type and defense-type magic treasures here. Their power is not bad and should be sufficient for you guests.”
An Xiu and Zhang Sheng looked at the Profound Grade magic treasures. One looked like a turtle shell, and it was obvious at a glance that it was defensive.
The other was a Profound Grade magic treasure shaped like a large hammer.
Neither of them was what they favored.
The three of them focused on light combat, and coupled with their innate pursuit of cultivation, they preferred lighter magic treasures.
Just as Honghuang was about to speak, An Xiu stepped forward to block him and respectfully said to Nan Qi, “Junior disciples like us prefer lighter magic treasures. A senior previously mentioned that we might find suitable magic treasures at the True Treasure Pavilion.”
“Senior?” Nan Qi’s eyes narrowed. “Which senior?”
An Xiu did not directly state the name: “A senior surnamed Zhai.”
Nan Qi paused.
She looked Honghuang and the other two up and down with some disbelief.
She really couldn’t see anything strange about the three in front of her.
How could they receive a personal recommendation from that person?
Our True Treasure Pavilion is not something ordinary cultivators would notice.
Nan Qi mused for a moment, then beckoned, “Follow me, the three of you.”
Seeing a glimmer of hope, Honghuang and the other two perked up and followed Nan Qi inside.
It seemed Zhai Xiaotian’s reputation was more useful than they had imagined.
Someone who could smuggle and also recommend them magic treasures must have a very mysterious background!
Nan Qi led them into the inner room and bypassed a curtain. From the outside, the area behind the curtain looked like an ordinary room.
But the moment the curtain was truly lifted, their eyes widened.
It was like a giant, sky-piercing pagoda, with layers upon layers of magic treasures floating within, rotating upwards.
Like meteors in motion.
Brilliant and dazzling.
A dazzling array, making one’s eyes spin.
The three of them were immediately stunned.
Nan Qi waved her hand, and a whole row of at least dozens of magic treasures flew over, all sorts of them, with everything imaginable.
“These are Profound Grade magic treasures refined by our disciples. They are currently the most suitable for you. Each has its own merits and has been carefully selected. Please take a look and see if there’s anything that interests you.”
Among them, there were four Profound Grade magic treasures that looked like flying swords alone!
The flying swords had different styles, some with tassels, some plain, some emitting red or purple light, and even lightning. They clearly had different effects.
There were also scroll-type magic treasures, book-type, and brush-type.
As Nan Qi said, each had its own merits.
Honghuang’s mouth watered as he looked.
He wanted one of each.
System: “Why don’t you check your Mustard Seed Bag to sober up.”
Honghuang: “…”
