He glanced at Banxia, still agonizingly choosing in front of the bookshelf.
After all, the dilemma is that if they choose a spell that is too advanced, they are just getting started and may not be able to learn it in a while.
But if you choose a spell that is too basic, and the exchange price is too cheap, won’t you lose the opportunity for rewards this time?
Fortunately, Jiang Li has less trouble in this regard.
He touched the small pocket in his arms, and found twenty-one spiritual stones lying quietly inside.
He had two bottles of Qi-nourishing pill and two bottles of Qi-restoring pill, and one bottle of Qi-restoring pill. He exchanged two bottles of Qi-nourishing pill and two bottles of Qi-restoring pill for six spiritual stones with Yan Hong.
Adding in his original fifteen spirit stones, this makes twenty-one.
After he made a breakthrough, Yan Hong helped him inquire about the prices of magic arts in the Tibetan Scripture Pavilion. Some of the most basic five-element magic arts cost less than ten spirit stones.
Jiang Li saw that this was indeed the case.
When he chose the "Puppet Planting Technique" just now, he went for the one with the highest price of spiritual stones.
On the other hand, for the Yin-type bookshelves and the Wood-type bookshelves, it was just the opposite. He was looking at the row with the lowest price. He had no choice but to buy a slightly higher-end one.
Without hesitation too much, Jiang Li picked a spell on both sides, then walked to the counter and handed it to Elder Li together.
Elder Li of the Sutra Pavilion raised his eyes and glanced at Jiang Li.
!
"Twenty spirit stones."
Jiang Li's small bag immediately dried up, leaving only a solitary spiritual stone lying there.
Elder Li put away the spiritual stone casually. This small amount of spiritual stone could not catch his eye at all. He handed out three more jade slips and patted them on the counter.
Jiang Li is already in the Qi refining stage and has the ability to use his spiritual energy to use jade slips on his own.
Sitting on the futon next to him, he put three jade slips on his forehead one after another, and slowly penetrated the spiritual energy according to the techniques learned in class. A large amount of magic information slowly flowed into his mind like liquid.
After using three jade slips in succession, my brain still feels a little dizzy, but the dizziness from the first time is gone.
After returning the jade slip, Yu Banxia finally chose his own method.
"goodbye."
"goodbye."
They had a tacit agreement not to exchange the magic spells they chose, and separated amicably after leaving the inner gate area.
Jiang Li did not return to the dormitory to continue practicing, nor did he rush to try the magic spells. Instead, he came to the functional area of the outer door.
The functional area is the area where the outer disciples have the most daily activities, such as the trading area and the task area.
Jiang Li first walked into the trading area.
The trading area is large, but the planning inside is very messy.
In addition to rows of shops with facades, many disciples spread a piece of cloth on the ground and sat down on the roadside, setting up stalls like the night markets in previous lives.
This makes the outer gate trading area lively and chaotic at the same time.
The prices at street stalls are always slightly lower than those in stores, which also attracts many cash-strapped disciples.
From time to time, disciples would come forward to browse and bargain.
Jiang Li would sometimes be one of them, but more often than not, he would just wander back and forth aimlessly in the direction of the trading area.
He's certainly not bored either.
Every step he takes, the identification skills that have reached level 3 will be thrown around wildly by him.
In fact, most of the things on the ground here are ordinary sundries, weapons used by mortal warriors, swords, guns and sticks, etc., which are at most more sophisticated.
There are also some animal furs, bones, internal organs, and other biological materials, which are mostly trophies brought back by the outer disciples when they go out to perform missions.
Medicinal pills, magic weapons, fragments of secret books, and other monk items can also be seen here, but the quantity is quite rare, and nearly half of them are either bad or fake.
None of us are fools. It’s too late to hide slightly better things and valuable things by ourselves. It’s hard to see them here.
However, the security in the outer trading area is quite good. The disciples all spread their items directly on the ground, and I have never seen anyone steal or rob them.
After all, the existence of the Law Enforcement Hall is a great deterrent to them.
"Yan Hong, how is business today?"
When Jiang Li walked deeper, he saw his friend with a chubby head.
Yan Hong also occupied an ordinary stall in the trading area and was very cautious in doing some buying and selling activities.
There weren't many things on his piece of cloth, just a few bottles of basic elixirs and a few basic spiritual materials. They were ordinary items from the bad streets. Jiang Li had seen them at least twenty times along the way. The person who came up to ask for the price
There are even fewer.
"Haha, Jiang Li, it's you who are here. Today's harvest is good. I plan to wait a little longer and officially open the business next month."
Yan Hong waved a book in his hand, which contained densely packed names and numbers.
In such a bleak business, the harvest he mentioned was of course not spiritual stones, but these numbers.
Yan Hong has been in this market for more than ten days. After understanding the rules from the beginning, he casually set up a stall and sat here.
Nineteen of their subordinates were also called over, and they went around the entire trading area asking and negotiating prices in different ways every day, and finally summarized them to Yan Hong, who recorded the statistics.
He is also new here and how to start doing business without first understanding the market.
"You are really good at doing business. Then next month's monthly payment of nineteen will be used as start-up capital. Don't give it to me for the time being. But don't let your introduction to Qi training fall behind."
Yan Hong's passion for becoming a businessman not only did not weaken after coming to the sect, but instead became more determined.
Jiang Li naturally expressed his support for this. After all, if he had a businessman friend behind him to support him, it would be of great help to him whether it was purchasing resources or selling items.
"I know, I know, brother, I have a top-grade spiritual root, so you can rest assured."
"By the way, didn't you go pick out spells today? How was your selection? Is there any special resource you need? I can bring it to your attention."
Yan Hong remembered this.
Jiang Li thought for a while, sorted out the magic information in his mind, and found that there was something he really needed.
"Are there any zombies for sale in this outer gate trading area? What's the specific price?"
Yan Hong was stunned, scratched his head and looked thoughtful.
After recalling for a moment, he put some saliva on his fingers and began to flip through the book quickly.
"There are zombies, but they are too big to carry, and the demand in our Buddhist Scripture Valley is small, so the outer disciples rarely catch them if they encounter them."
"So there are only two stores outside that sell zombies, and the quality is very low, but the price is very high. Generally speaking, it's not cost-effective."
"Well, okay, then you should help me pay attention to it. You can also catch zombies or refine zombies."
"Also, help me look at some seeds of spiritual trees and spiritual materials. If you don't need them urgently, I can get some if the price is right."
Jiang Li stated his needs, and Yan Hong nodded and wrote down these two points on the paper.
"See you later. I have to go to the mission area to see if there are any missions that I can take on in the early stages of Qi training."
Jiang Li practiced the appraisal procedure for two hours as usual, and then walked towards the mission area.
This appraisal skill is a built-in skill on the panel, but the upgrade is as slow as ever, which is frustrating. I can only find time to brush up on the progress every day, but I can't do it faster than haste.
It was the understanding over the past few days that made him deeply understand his poverty.
Just relying on the monthly tribute given by the sect is far from enough. He needs to find a way to earn more spiritual stones.
But he didn't know how to refine elixirs or weapons. As a newbie who didn't have any skills, he could only go to the mission area to see if there were any missions suitable for him.
After all, in the Sutra Collection Valley, outer disciples must perform tasks compulsorily after one year, and some disciples have not even introduced Qi into their bodies.
Even they can receive tasks in the mission area. Jiang Li is in the early stage of Qi training, why can't he?
The outer mission area is a large indoor hall. There are also a lot of disciples here. They are chatting in small groups, and more of them are gathered in front of three big signs to check the available missions.
And here, Jiang Li could clearly detect an aura that was different from the trading area.
The expressions of the disciples here are obviously more urgent than those in the trading area. Some disciples who have been hanging out here all year round have cold expressions, as if they think everyone is the enemy who killed their father.
From time to time, a few older outer disciples would come back to hand in tasks. Some of them were covered in blood, and some were carrying some kind of unknown monster, which looked quite fierce.
Jiang Li learned about it and found that although there were no requirements for accepting tasks in the mission area, he still thoughtfully divided the tasks into three difficulties to suggest a division of capabilities.
The early stage of Qi training and below, the middle stage of Qi training and the late stage of Qi training.
Although these three stages are all Qi refining stages, the gap between them can often reach several times or even ten times.
Jiang Li estimated his own strength. He had just started practicing Qi for a few days, but he still hadn't mastered any of the magic spells.
The only sub-profession of an internal martial artist, at most it makes his body stronger than the average in the early stages of Qi training, so there doesn't seem to be much of an advantage here.
On the other hand, in terms of recovery ability, he is relatively confident with the blessing of his condition.
After thinking about it, he realized, "I'm ordinary and I'm sorry." Then he walked to the task card at the beginning of Qi training with a sincere mind.
"Disciples fanning the fire: Disciples go to the alchemy hall to fan the fire for the alchemy furnace. Each one must support it for two hours.

"Disciple who tests medicine: The disciple goes to the alchemy hall and takes an elixir for trial. To ensure the safety of the disciple's life.
