'The high-end technology monopoly in the world of immortality is extremely serious.'
Aaron complained in his mind and saw the disdain on the scholar's face.
After all, casual cultivators and newcomers are discriminated against to a certain extent, which seems to be reasonable.
He thought for a while and said: "I think in the magic chapter, there is a 'rejuvenation' specializing in treatment, which is quite good..."
"Your Majesty, you want to buy the 'Rejuvenation Technique'? I will give you three low-grade spiritual stones!" The scholar's face immediately turned from cloudy to clear. Earning spiritual stones is not shabby!
Aaron took out three cut spiritual stones, but did not hand them over. Instead, there was a look of hesitation on his face: "This is all my wealth..."
"This 'Rejuvenation Technique' can heal physical injuries and recover very quickly. It is a must-have magic for those injured when traveling or fighting!"
The scholars quickly boasted about this low-grade magic, which was almost like an immortal magic.
Aaron struggled for a while before saying, "I still have a few questions, and I'd like to find someone to answer them..."
"My guest, please ask me. I know everything I can tell you..." The scholar kept a smile on his face.
"What I am practicing is the 'Hunyuan Jue'. Is there anything wrong with this technique?" Aaron asked openly.
"There is nothing wrong with this. This 'Hunyuan Jue' is passed down from ancient times and has been practiced and studied by countless monks...but..." the scholar shook his head: "The speed of mana improvement...is better than the single-attribute magic formula suitable for spiritual roots.
Being a little slower may not have mattered in ancient times when spiritual energy was abundant, but nowadays, if you are a step slower, you may not be able to break through the barrier, and you may not be able to break through the big realm before your life is about to end..."
"In addition, the follow-up of the 'Hunyuan Jue' is also very problematic. After all, it is only a basic method, only the Qi refining part. Even if you rely on it to build a foundation by luck in the future, you will still have to switch to other techniques..."
The shopkeeper is worthy of running a bookstore, and he is very familiar with the pros and cons of the exercises. Aaron learned a lot from each one.
'It seems... I have to find a better technique in advance and replace the 'Hunyuan Jue'! When practicing in the ordinary world, the spiritual energy is thinner, so the quality of the technique is even more important!'
He nodded secretly, and when he saw that the scholar shopkeeper seemed a little impatient, he immediately said: "The last question, when I first came to Guibao Land, are there any taboos and ways to earn spiritual stones?"
"Taboo? As long as you don't fight in the city, there are no taboos... Well, don't think that this place is rich in spiritual energy and just want to stay and practice... If you want to stay overnight in Dongmen Valley, you must go to Dongmen Inn to rent
Live in a cave." The scholar smiled and said, "Otherwise, if you are caught, you will have a hard time!"
'Sure enough...this wool is not easy to pluck.'
Aaron sighed in his heart, and the scholar's shopkeeper's voice continued to ring in his ears: "As for earning spirit stones? The best thing is to join the Dongmen family and become a guest... But the Dongmen family has a high threshold, and usually only accepts refining qi.
Later monks, if they are in the middle stage of Qi refining, must have at least one skill, but if they really become a guest, they will not only receive a sum of spiritual stones as an offering every year, but they can also rent the Dongmen family's cave for free..."
The scholar seemed quite envious.
But Aaron shook his head secretly: 'There is no free lunch in the world. Since you have become a guest, you must have restrictions. The Dongmen family wants you to work hard, so you have to go!'
"Besides that, you have to have a craft, set up a stall and open a shop..." The scholar shook his head: "If these are not possible, then you can only rent the Dongmen family's spiritual field and be a tenant for one year.
You can also earn a few spiritual stones."
From what he said, it seems that only the last one is more reliable.
Of course, it is also the hardest.
'I didn't expect... that there are also tenants among the immortal cultivators?'
'Isn't this too realistic?'
Aaron thought of the old man Donglong. He didn't look like he had a spiritual field. He was probably a tenant!
Of course, in the world of cultivating immortals, it sounds nicer, it’s called ‘Ling Nong’ or ‘Ling Zhi Fu’!
But in essence, they are no different from ordinary poor farmers who are exploited by big landlords!
"Thanks for letting me know!"
Aaron took out three spiritual stones and took a jade slip from the scholar's hand.
Originally he didn't plan to buy anything, but in order to ask for some information, he had to do it.
Immortal cultivators are very strict in speech, have extraordinary spiritual knowledge, and are extremely wary of strangers.
It is obviously impossible to get some information for free like ordinary people.
'It seems that the talkative old man Donglong who loves to show off is a worthy candidate... Well, don't worry, take your time... You can spend a few years to build a good relationship first...'
After taking the jade slips, Aaron left the bookstore and walked around the streets again.
Dongmenfang City is not big, so it doesn’t take much time to get to the end.
Aaron hesitated for a while, but finally walked into the Dongmen Inn and asked about renting a cave and other matters...
After a few sticks of incense, he walked out with a gloomy look on his face: "Black... so dark!"
In Dongmenfang City, the shortest caves are rented by the month, not by the number of days, and the lowest-level caves cost one spiritual stone a month!
Even if Aaron spent all his savings, it would not be enough to live there for a year!
At this moment, he deeply felt the horror of house prices and rents!
And by being shameless and making insinuations, he also learned a lot of basic information from the waiter with a nonchalant look on his face.
For example...the distribution of spiritual energy in Dongmen Valley is also uneven.
The place with the best spiritual energy is naturally the main line of the Dongmen family. There is a small spiritual line that supplies the cultivation of the family monks and guests.
And Dongmenfang City is close to the ancestral home of the Dongmen family, so it has plenty of spiritual energy.
As for the surrounding spiritual fields, they have to be ranked second.
Even so, the aura around Lingtian is pretty good, which is why those cultivators would rather be tenants than stay in Dongmen Valley.
Being able to live in a cottage near Lingtian is a hidden benefit that the Dongmen family provides to its tenant farmers.
And as long as you live in the Dongmen Valley, there is at least hope for progress in your skills!
Even if you don't expect to build a foundation, even if you just break through one level of basic skills, or even break through several small realms, it is still very good!
The average lifespan of a cultivator in the Qi refining stage is around a hundred years old.
Immortal cultivators in the early and middle stages often can only live less than a hundred years old, while those in the later and Dzogchen stages may live to be one hundred, eleven or twenty years old!
This is the advantage brought by small realm breakthroughs!
Of course, late-stage Qi-refining monks who live to be one hundred and twenty are either extremely good at maintaining their health, or they have practiced life-extending techniques such as the 'Eternal Spring Art', or both...
To be honest, this news made Aaron a little excited.
'How about... I also become a tenant?'
'Although farming is a little harder every day, you can use your spiritual energy to practice, and there are still a few spiritual stones every year... After you have done enough fishing, it seems that it is not impossible to switch to farming?'
'Bah, bah, bah... I am the boss of Qinglong, a cultivator of immortals, and a time traveler... It would be too embarrassing to be reduced to selling myself as a tenant... I hope I won't say it's so sweet in the future...'
