Chapter 388 Treasure hunt in Wanbaolou
Ximen Cheng glanced at the Qingyi attendant and said in a low tone: "The things I want to buy are more precious, but you can't make the decision. Let's take me to see your boss!"
"Senior, please follow me."
Upon hearing this, the attendant in Qingyi smiled and respectfully welcomed Ximen Cheng to the VIP room on the second floor.
The furnishings upstairs are different from the lobby below. Not only are the area much smaller, but there are also some antique tables, chairs and furniture, which are decorated in an elegant and elegant manner, comfortable and comfortable manner.
A gentle middle-aged man was standing in the house and reading aloud while holding a volume of ancient books.
What is most strange is that there is no magical fluctuation on this person, and he is completely an ordinary mortal.
Logically speaking, ordinary mortals should not appear in Huangfenggu Market, and they are even more unlikely to serve as shopkeepers.
However, there are all exceptions, ordinary mortals naturally have no chance to come into the world of immortal cultivation, but mortals born in the family of immortal cultivation are qualified to come into the world of immortal cultivation.
In the world of "The Legend of Mortals in Cultivating Immortals", if a mortal wants to become an immortal, there must be a prerequisite, that is, to have spiritual roots.
The 'spirit roots' can be roughly divided into five elements such as gold, wood, water, fire, and earth. The spiritual roots of most immortal cultivators are spiritual roots mixed with these five or four multiple attributes.
Although these people can also sense the spiritual energy of heaven and earth, the effect of cultivation can be said to be terrible.
If there are no other opportunities, you can only practice the basic five elements of the Qi refining stage to the third and fourth levels, and you will be unable to move forward.
Therefore, spiritual roots with five or even four attributes are also called "pseudo-spirit roots" by the immortal cultivation world, while spiritual roots with only two or three attributes and faster cultivation are also called "true spiritual roots".
As for a single spiritual root with only one attribute, it is called "Heavenly root" by the immortal cultivation world, which means the darling of heaven.
A cultivator with this kind of spiritual root, no matter what kind of spiritual root attribute, is twice to three times that of ordinary spiritual root cultivator. Moreover, when he reaches the peak of the foundation-building stage, he does not need to face the bottlenecks he should face when entering the elixir stage, and is also the only cultivator who can make pills without taking the foundation-building pills.
In addition to the heavenly spiritual roots such as the "Heaven Spirit Root", there are also mutated spiritual roots that do not belong to the Five Elements Spirit Root.
The so-called "mutated spiritual root" is a special spiritual root that mixes two or three five elements attributes to obtain mutation and sublimation, such as wind spirit root, thunder spirit root, etc.
The probability of spiritual roots appearing is random. Although the descendants who have children between monks and monks have a greater chance of inheriting their spiritual roots, this probability is not 100%.
It is precisely because of this that most immortal cultivation families have many mortal descendants who do not have spiritual roots.
Although these mortal descendants cannot practice, they do not mean that they have no value, because these mortal descendants may also give birth to descendants with spiritual roots.
Moreover, among these mortal descendants, some people with special talents will also appear, and their contribution to the immortal cultivation family is even greater than that of many low-level monks.
For example, the middle-aged man in front of Ximen Cheng has a strong business talent, so he was sent by the senior family to Huangfenggufang City to serve as the shopkeeper of Wanbaolou.
After seeing the middle-aged man with Ximen Cheng, the attendant in Qingyi who took Ximen Cheng upstairs quickly walked to him and whispered to him that Ximen Cheng was a monk in the Foundation Establishment Stage.
When the middle-aged man heard this, he slowly closed the books in his hand, and smiled kindly and said, "I am Tian Buli, the shopkeeper of Xia Wanbao Pavilion. I wonder what this senior is called?"
"Ximen Cheng."
"So it's Senior Ximen, please take your seat."
After Tian Buli led Ximen Cheng to his seat, he turned to the green-clothed servant beside him and ordered: "Go! Come and make a pot of Biyun tea!"
"I won't say much nonsense. I came to Wanbao Pavilion today, hoping to buy some pill recipes suitable for the Foundation Establishment Cultivators here, as well as some powerful attack treasures or talismans. I wonder if there is anything I want here by Manager Tian?"
"Senior is really impatient, but please rest assured. The reputation of Wanbaolou is definitely one of the best on this street. If this store fails to satisfy the senior, then there is no need to go to see other shops."
When Tian Buli saw Ximen Cheng not even drinking tea, he talked about the serious matter. He smiled and comforted Ximen Cheng, then put down the book in his hand and said, "Since I'm in a hurry, I won't talk to you anymore. Please wait for a while, and I'll get what you need."
After Tian Buli finished speaking, he left a blue-clothed servant to entertain Ximen Cheng, and he walked down the stairs quickly.
Not long after, Tian Buli returned to the second floor again, and he also had three extra luxurious brocade boxes in his hand.
In Ximen Cheng's perception, there were also several strange auras of monks in Wanbao Tower, including a foundation-building cultivator.
It is obvious that these people are the bodyguards of Wanbaolou to prevent anyone from being blinded by the treasures and being unable to help but commit stupid things like killing people and catching treasures.
"Tian knows that the foundation-building cultivators like our seniors have a very high vision, so they dare not use those ordinary goods to show off. These treasures are carefully collected by our Wanbao Building, and I hope they can catch the eyes of our seniors."
As Tian Buli said, he opened the first brocade box, revealing two pill recipes that were a little yellow and simplified.
The moment Ximen Cheng saw these two pill recipes, the contents of these two pill recipes were included by the system, and he also understood the effects of these two pill recipes.
The names of these two elixirs are "Marceal Cleansing Bone Refining Pill" and "Juling Pill".
Among them, "marrow-cleaning and bone refining pill" is a pill that can help the takers strengthen their physique, and the grade is equivalent to the fourth-grade high-grade pill.
"Ju Ling Pill" is a pill that allows the takers to increase their cultivation, and only the foundation-building cultivator can take it.
Because cultivators in the Qi Refining Stage cannot withstand the powerful medicinal power of "Juling Pills", while cultivators in the Jidan stage have no effect when taking "Juling Pills", and their grade is equivalent to fourth-grade advanced elixirs.
"Not bad! I'll want these two pill recipes."
Ximen Cheng pretended to pick up two pill recipes and checked them. He nodded with satisfaction, turned to look at the remaining two brocade boxes.
Seeing this, Tian Buli's smile became more and more enthusiastic. He quickly reached out and opened the second brocade box, revealing a blue round bead the size of a thumb.
The moment Ximen Cheng saw this blue round bead, a faint look of excitement flashed deep in his eyes.
