Chapter 11 Shopping Methods of the System Sect IV
"Xiao Qi, remember that there are certain things to pay attention to when purchasing cultivation resources in the world of cultivation. It is normal to kill people and seize treasures in the world of cultivation.
Just like now, if we purchase some resources, we will easily be followed by someone who is interested, and then intercepted and killed.
Based on the teacher’s years of experience, there are three methods that are relatively safe.
The first one is to use the resources directly in the city after purchasing them. Large cities like this where monks gather are protected by large sects.
The strength and credibility of the Dazongmen are guaranteed, and the spiritual stones paid when entering the city are equivalent to protection fees. As long as they are within the scope of this city, they belong to the protected area of the Dazongmen, and most monks will not do anything in the city.
Of course, as I just said, this is only in most cases, not absolute.
If it were a heavy treasure, many people would take risks, including the sect itself.
The credibility of a large sect is not absolute. If you encounter someone who is powerful or has more power than this large sect, then the large sect is generally unwilling to offend the other party.
Therefore, people's hearts are evil, and we cannot leave our safety in the hands of others. Therefore, this option is not suitable for us. The safest place is in the mountains.
The second is to purchase very few resources, which will make others think that you are a poor person, and that your efforts are not proportional to your income.
However, you may also meet people who are poorer than you, and although our sect is small, we still need to purchase resources for eight people at one time, so it is not suitable for us.
The third one is our sect’s current shopping method. Although we will encounter many accidents and dangers, it is relatively speaking the most suitable for us.”
After confirming that the shopkeeper of Xuanyang Pavilion was free to make large-scale transactions, the five masters and apprentices of Xu Ran followed him and started shopping in Xuanyang Pavilion.
While walking, Xu Ran did not forget to whisper in Xiao Qi's ear and introduce her to her experience.
Every time he walked to a counter where resources were stored, Xu Ran would stop, turn around and ask the shopkeeper of Xuanyang Pavilion who was following them cautiously:
"How much inventory are there? How many spiritual stones are there in total? I want them all!"
The shopkeeper of Xuanyang Pavilion has been following Xu Ran and his five apprentices carefully. When Xu Ran asked him this for the first time, he thought the senior in front of him was still angry about what just happened and was deliberately teasing him.
After all, he had never seen how to buy resources. As soon as he started, he asked how much inventory there was and what the price was. He didn't bargain and just asked for them all.
Although he was a little angry at the time, there was nothing he could do. After all, he was afraid of making Xu Ran master and apprentice anxious, so he just threw out hundreds of fifth-level spiritual talismans. Then he probably wouldn't have anything to do with him later. After all, his life was gone, so what else could he do?
how?
He could only nod and bend down to tell Xu Ran truthfully how much inventory he had and what the price was, and then he handed the storage ring filled with goods to Xu Ran honestly.
Then Lin Qianqian next to Xu Ran directly handed a storage ring to his hand. He curiously checked it out and saw that the storage ring was filled with spiritual stones, and they were also top-quality spiritual stones.
Instantly he felt a rush of blood rushing to his heart, and his breathing became rapid.
The best spiritual stone? How long has it been since it appeared in today's Immortal Continent? Isn't this thing completely extinct? Any appearance of one can attract countless people to grab it, and it has now become a strategic material for every major sect.
Already.
He never dreamed that one day someone would come to him with top-quality spiritual stones to buy resources. He was stunned by this sudden feeling of happiness.
Looking at Xu Ran, his eyes became extremely eager, just like a hungry evil man seeing a beautiful woman. Xu Ran felt chilled by his eyes.
Xu Ran thought that the shopkeeper of Xuanyang Pavilion looked at him this way just because he spent a lot of money to purchase resources, and did not think about the top-quality spiritual stones.
After all, in his memory, there were golden immortals in the Immortal Continent, not to mention countless heavenly and earthly immortals. Since there are immortals, there must be immortal stones and the like.
The best spiritual stone? This thing is probably only used by a weakling like him who has a low level of cultivation and weak strength. He has been practicing for more than two thousand years and is still in the stage of becoming a god.
Those sects with a little bit of power probably use spiritual crystal immortal stones. Who would use spiritual stones? Otherwise, with his character, if he knew that top-quality spiritual stones are so scarce in today's world of cultivation, he would definitely not dare to use them.
.
The other monks in Xuanyang Pavilion were trembling when they saw Xu Ran and his disciples sweeping away all kinds of resources, and they did not dare to look directly at them.
It’s so scary. Do all the big guys shop like this? No wonder we are just newbies. It turns out that our shopping posture is wrong.
How about trying this shopping posture next time? Well...it seems we can't learn it - poor!
Seeing the performance of the monks in Xuanyang Pavilion, Xu Ran nodded with satisfaction, yes, this is the effect I want.
This time it seems that the effect is stronger than the previous times. It seems that he has borrowed the influence of the Xuanyang Pavilion manager. After all, the Xuanyang Pavilion manager is stationed here all year round, and most of the monks here are not impressed by his strength.
Understood.
The master of Xuanyang Pavilion's cultivation is unfathomable, but I can suppress his momentum. By comparison, I am now a "real boss" who is even more unfathomable than the master of Xuanyang Pavilion.
Now I have used the influence of the shopkeeper of Xuanyang Pavilion to establish my identity as a "real big boss", and I will use the financial resources revealed by this purchase. Well, there is nothing wrong with them seeing me this way.
Xu Ran glanced at the reactions of the other monks in Xuanyang Pavilion, and then took the opportunity to continue transmitting messages to Xiao Qi.
"Xiao Qi, you see, this is the shopping attitude of our system sect. Remember, the most taboo thing among cultivators when purchasing resources is between very little and extremely much.
This situation is the most dangerous, and it is easiest for people to follow you and intercept you halfway. I have just told you about the rare situations, but we choose this path.
Although it is said that wealth should not be revealed, it is also relative. When the financial resources you reveal reach a certain amount and can make most people look up to you, it is safer at this time.
Because most of the time, financial resources are directly proportional to power. If you can show huge financial resources, it will not be easy to reveal the power behind you.
Most people will basically not take action against you unless they understand the details of the power behind you, for fear of provoking a crusade for themselves, except of course some desperadoes.
And this is why as a teacher I have to pretend to be an unfathomable great monk. The combination of unfathomable financial resources and unfathomable cultivation will allow us to avoid many unnecessary dangers.
Those people will not take action against us until they understand our situation. And the time it takes for them to investigate our situation is enough for us to escape with resources... ahem, strategic transfer back to the sect.
Although deflation is severe in the world of cultivation now, making many materials worthless, and what we purchase are relatively low-level resources. Even if we wipe out all the resources in this store, it will not show how strong our financial resources are.
But it doesn’t matter, one store won’t do it. Let’s scan all the stores in this city later. I believe this can be considered a huge wealth even in the deflationary world of cultivation.”
Yes, Xu Ran discovered a long time ago that the world has been in a deflationary situation.
The prices of various cultivation resources have always been low, and can even be said to be ridiculously low. He only used the most common top-grade spiritual stones, and they were not spiritual crystals. But even so, a top-grade spiritual stone can still be purchased.
Many resources.
When I think about it carefully, it’s scary, no wonder there are so many immortals in this world, because the environment in this world is good enough, and all kinds of resources are free of charge. Can cultivation in this environment lower one’s cultivation level?
It is estimated that a pig can become an immortal if it lives for ten thousand years. Well...this seems wrong. If you want to put it this way, it has been more than two thousand years since I traveled through time. Could it be that I am not even as good as a pig?
Sigh, what a disgrace to the time traveler. After more than two thousand years, he is still just a small transformed god. Even his system has disappeared. He really cannot help him.
Well, it’s not me who’s wrong, there’s something wrong with this world. The system has said that this world is too dangerous. What can a helpless little newbie like me do? I’m very proud of being able to survive for more than two thousand years, okay?
Thinking of his own cultivation level, Xu Ran's hatred for this world became even deeper. Why couldn't he break through to the out-of-body stage? Isn't it that the major forces in this world have monopolized all the cultivation resources above the level of gods?
This world is simply two extremes. The resources needed for the cultivation of Nascent Soul and below are on sale as if they are free.
However, the resources needed for realms above the Nascent Soul stage are basically unavailable in Xiuzhenfang City. Those at the God Transformation stage are okay, and you can still buy some. The cultivation resources needed for the realm above the God Transformation are basically extinct, and you can only get lucky occasionally.
, you can only buy a few pieces in one store.
He couldn't figure it out at first, but later he figured it out. These resources must be controlled by those big forces and are not allowed to leak out.
As for why they do this, the reason is very simple. Firstly, these forces do have many monks, and these resources are only enough for their internal consumption.
After all, monks have a long lifespan. How many monks have they accumulated over the years? It is estimated that there are tens of thousands of times more monks than the number of babies born every year, making the training resources needed by high-level monks even more scarce.
Secondly, if these big forces need to expand, they need new blood to join them.
The threshold for joining them is basically the Nascent Soul stage or the Divine Transformation stage. Releasing the resources below the Divine Transformation stage for free is actually the same as raising Gu.
After giving you the resources to practice on your own to the Nascent Soul stage or the Divine Transformation stage, if you want to continue to advance, you can only choose to join them.
Otherwise, you can only rely on luck to find resources to practice, or because there are no resources, the path is hopeless, and you will wait for the day when your life span is exhausted and you die of old age.
