Zhang Xiaohan deeply felt the pain and unwillingness in Xuan Wuhen's heart. No ascendant monk would be willing to accept this situation. Everyone admired the upper realm and hoped that their cultivation would be better improved. However, when they arrived at the upper realm, they realized that what they had been fighting for was actually something that was ridiculed and despised. The gap between them was so big, no wonder this river was called the Broken Soul River.

Xuan Wuhen sighed and shook his head lonely: "Why can't our monks in the lower realm absorb the immortal energy?"

This question is obviously a conversation with oneself, not asking Zhang Xiaohan, so Zhang Xiaohan naturally cannot answer it.

After a while, Xuan Wuhen put away the loneliness in his heart: "It made fellow Taoist laugh."

The smile on Zhang Xiaohan's face also closed early, and he heard this, "It's okay - there is nothing strange. We ascendant monks cannot absorb the fairy energy, but the immortals can absorb the spiritual power in our bodies. Isn't it that we ascendant monks are... and are forever suppressed?"

"Not necessarily," Xuan Wuhen shook his head and said, "As long as we pass the God Cultivation Stage and enter the Void Refining Stage, we will have a place in the nine realms, at least in the waters. Although we have no power to resist the superior immortals at the same level, it is hard to imagine that the nine realms are mixed with people, demons, spirits, and monsters, but they are not all that the immortals here can cover. Every senior in the Void Refining Stage can apply to set up a hunting team and recruit cultivators, and immortals will also join during this period. It is said that as long as the cultivation level reaches the Void Refining Stage, Lingxiao City is still fair on the surface."

Zhang Xiaohan nodded and asked, "There is such a lot of spiritual energy here, and all the ascending monks are the top figures in the lower world. This is not a single immortal here, and the number of top-grade spirit stones is not low. As long as we wait for the ascending monks to practice hard, advanced and refined voids will be just around the corner. We can even survive the hard work of the lower world. No matter how you say it is, it is easier to survive than the lower world."

"Haha, fellow Taoists only know the reason, but not the reason. It is difficult to live in Lingxiao City, except for the three top-grade spirit stones per month. The food, clothing, housing and transportation in Lingxiao City require spirit stones or immortal stones. Fellow Taoists may say that we can wear long clothes and do not need food for fasting. But we always have to have a place to settle down and always have a spiritual pill to improve our cultivation. We must have treasures. Which one does not require spirit stones - Wrong. Spirit pills and treasures can only be purchased with immortal stones. No matter how much the fellow Taoists bring from the lower realm, there will be a time to use it. Then either leave Lingxiao City and go to the wasteland to hunt monsters, or they can only work for Lingxiao City."

Xuan Wuhen will carefully consider Zhang Xiaohan's future, and Zhang Xiaohan will understand more clearly the profession introduced in the "Guidelines".

First of all, both immortals and monks in the Nine Realms do not quit their appetites, because the dishes they cook are mainly delicious, and secondly, they contain a lot of spiritual energy. Some spiritual energy in them are close to the level of immortal energy. The cooked spiritual plants are like refined spiritual elixirs. Whether immortals or monks, they can absorb the spiritual energy in them. It is said that after eating a high-quality spiritual meal, even monks in the Mahayana stage can feel the increase in spiritual power in their bodies.

If you want to eat a good spiritual meal, you have to earn immortal stones. Otherwise, you can only watch others enjoying delicious food while improving your cultivation. You can only practice boringly. Over time, there will be no one who is not tempted. After eating the spiritual meal, it is simply impossible to go back to the past process of clearing one's heart and having few desires.

Secondly, in the Nine Realms, most monks start families and careers. Except for those who are in poverty, there are few monks who do not have Taoist couples. If they have Taoist couples, they must have a fixed residence, servants, and the expenses must be high. Therefore, they must find ways to earn spirit stones.

However, the way for ascending monks to earn spirit stones is limited in the waters. The pills refined with the same material are less effective than those refined by immortals. Therefore, pills refined by non-immortals cannot be sold publicly in the market.

By the same token, it is difficult to refine treasures in the lower realm. When it comes to the upper realm, treasures are still the patents of immortals. So the ascension monk wants to earn spirit stones, which are listed in the "Guidelines".

Moreover, because you are not familiar with various materials such as the upper realm spirit pill monsters and spirit plants, even the shops in the market are not as familiar as those born and raised indigenous people. Besides, the highest shop in any shop is the one in the elixir stage, and no one dares to use the one you apply for is the one in the Shen Cultivation Period.

Then Xuan Wuhen introduced the four major families of Lingxiao City. In addition to the Ling family of the city lord, there are also three major families of Bing family, Mu family, and Nangong. These four major families all live in their respective cities. Only the Ling family owns an additional city lord's mansion. Moreover, the clan leader of the Bing family has only passed on to women but not men throughout the ages.

The residences of these four major families are also very easy to identify. The Ling family in the city lord has the greatest influence. The main buildings of the lord's mansion are all square roofs. The Ling family's own city is rectangular, the Bing family's round roof, the Mu family's cone-shaped, and the Nangong family's all ridge-shaped slope roofs.

Then there are trivial matters about living and staying in Lingxiao City, as well as the overview of various major families, outstanding figures among the ascension monks, and the situation of the hunting team of monsters. After all the things are said, it will be dark.

Zhang Xiaohan listened carefully and remembered it all, and then handed Xuan Wuhen two top-quality spirit stones.

After Xuan Wuhen took it, he looked at the sky: "It's getting late, I accompany my fellow Taoist to the town and stay in the inn for a night. If fellow Taoist wants to exchange for the fairy stone and eat a spiritual meal, I know the best here too."

Zhang Xiaohan nodded and agreed, but felt a little sad. The early stage monk of the cultivator of the God of Cultivation actually became a tour guide. He also had to exchange for some kickbacks by introducing the ascension monk to stay and eat. It is unimaginable in the lower realm.

This "tour guide" work can be completed by cultivators in the Foundation Establishment Stage, but obviously the immortals in Lingxiao City are not willing to do it, which means that the top-grade spirit stones are not seen in the eyes of the immortals.

Thinking of Zhang Tao and Zhao Changfeng, they ascended to the upper realm, and they didn’t have the best spirit stones in their hands. I guess the first thing they did was to sell the materials in the storage ring, but they didn’t know how much immortal stones they had in the storage ring were worth in the upper realm.

Accommodation is so expensive. One night is a low-grade immortal stone. Zhang Xiaohan really wants to meditate on the street outside for a night, but Xuan Wuhen said that as long as he sleeps outside and has no place to stay, he will be invited by the law enforcement team. That is not a low-grade immortal stone. He will be forced to be sent to the spirit stone mine for three months.

Zhang Xiaohan had just ascended to the upper realm, and there was no immortal stone in hand. Fortunately, the exchange ratio between the immortal stone and the best spirit stone in Lingxiao City was one to three. Zhang Xiaohan and Xuan Wuhen exchanged a low-grade immortal stone, and there were three more in the best spirit stone in his hand.
