The corner of Yu Cheng's mouth twitched when he saw the stack of low-level evil-proof charms.
This is really...a miracle of quantity.
"The effect of the evil-fighting talisman is still a bit weak. During the Qi training period, it is best to use the first-level and ninth-level evil-fighting talisman." Yu Cheng suggested.
Chen Li felt helpless.
Where did he get the evil-breaking talisman?
He had never even heard of it in Green River Square.
Fortunately, Yu Cheng, who is mature and good at dealing with people, quickly took out three cards from the storage bag with a smile and handed them over: "I have a few here, but they are of no use to me, so I will give them to you for self-defense."
The first-level and ninth-level evil-busting talisman is already the pinnacle of first-level talismans.
The same level as the Golden Light Talisman.
Of course it's not useless to him.
Even if he doesn't use it, there are still many juniors who use it.
Just doing a favor.
This kind of thing was related to life-saving, so Chen Li could not refuse it. He could only take it shamelessly with both hands, and then expressed his sincere thanks.
…
Because there was a powerful evil spirit nearby.
Soon after returning, the team set off again.
On the way, he couldn't help but touch the evil-busting charms on his chest again.
I still have lingering fears.
This year, he has encountered many dangers.
But this time is undoubtedly the most dangerous one.
When he was stared at by the evil spirit before, his mind was frightened and his whole body was stiff. He could hardly resist. If there was not a stack of evil talismans, which greatly delayed the time, the consequences would be disastrous.
"After we settle down in Luanluo City, we must purchase more evil-destroying talismans. I don't know how much they will cost."
In the days that followed, he never dared to leave the team and wander around.
He seems powerful now, but in fact he is only powerful at the level of Qi training. In this crisis-ridden world, it is difficult to even protect himself. Let alone him, even the foundation-building ancestor of the Yu family has been cautious and cautious all the way.
Afraid of encountering dangers that cannot be dealt with.
Fortunately, the rest of the journey went extremely smoothly.
Except for a few more attacks from low-level monsters, I never encountered any serious danger.
…
Three days later.
The forest gradually becomes sparse, and some traces of human beings can be seen one after another.
After arriving here, it was basically safe. The atmosphere in the team became lively again, the expressions on the faces relaxed, and the chatting and laughing resumed.
After walking for another half day, we walked out of the forest and the scenery changed again.
There are large fields on both sides. Since it is already late autumn, all the crops in the fields have been harvested.
There were scattered farmers and children carrying baskets on their backs, picking up missing grains from the sky and the earth.
These people were wearing a gray and shabby cloth with no discernible texture. Through the holes, pieces of thin flesh and conspicuous bones were exposed. Their hair had become shiny and sticky because it had not been washed for a long time.
Stocks.
As for her feet, she didn't wear any shoes at all, her feet were bare, her trouser legs were rolled up high, there were abscesses everywhere on her feet, and her whole body was covered with mud.
Seeing a large army approaching on the road, they all immediately looked this way, and a stiff smile of awe and humbleness appeared on their faces. Several children wanted to run over to see the strange thing, but the adults grabbed them tightly.
These people were obviously malnourished for a long time.
He was yellow-faced, hungry and thin, and extremely weak.
Many people can be seen looking sick at a glance.
One of the small women was still holding a baby that was waiting to be fed. Her face looked haggard as if she was in her forties or fifties. When she saw the baby crying, she quickly opened her ragged clothes, revealing her shriveled breasts without much milk, and nursed her in public without caring.
Milk comes.
Is this the secular world?
Chen Li suddenly felt a little happy, but also a little unspeakably frightened.
Fortunately, I traveled through time and became an immortal cultivator.
If you travel through time and become a farmer.
That would really be a worse life than death.
After walking through the farmland for a while, some low and dilapidated buildings appeared in the distance. Most of these houses were made of logs and thatch.
is the pronoun here.
Compared to Chen Li's "fuss", others have long been accustomed to it.
Not all farmers are like this.
This is already within the scope of Luanluo City, the core area of the Changsheng Domain, but it still seems vast and sparsely populated. Forests, swamps, and wetlands can be seen everywhere. Often for a long time on the road, no villages can be seen.
Even the pedestrians on the road are scattered here and there.
These people were extremely respectful to the immortal cultivators, and rarely came to greet them. When they saw them from a distance, they would take the initiative to hide aside, not daring to get close at all. If they didn't have time to avoid them, they would immediately kneel to the ground with a look of panic on their faces.
I'm afraid these adults, who look like immortal cultivators at first sight, will blame me.
This situation will get better after another day of walking.
The population is starting to become relatively dense.
Occasionally, you can see residential areas with more than 10,000 people in some towns.
At the same time, the situation of the mortals here has also become slightly better. There are fewer patches on the clothes, and traces of frequent cleaning can be seen on the hair on the face. Occasionally, there are rich people wearing gold, silver, and gorgeous clothes.
…
In the evening, the team finally stopped to rest in a secular town.
The city lord of the small town, an old monk who was in the late stage of Qi training, found out that there was an ancestor of the Yu family in the team. He immediately and diligently vacated the city lord's palace, and contacted the wealthy households in the city to arrange a place for the rest of the people to live.
Chen Li doesn't know what other places are like.
But in the Immortality Realm, the monks directly manage and guard the secular world.
Eliminate hidden dangers in the guarded area, discover local talents with cultivation talents, and collect various resources to continuously support the cultivation world with nutrients from the secular world.
Chen Li and others were arranged to stay at the inn for one night.
Prices here are extremely cheap.
In fact, the most used materials here are silver and copper, while spiritual stones are not used at all.
However, considering that an enclave like Green River Square is far away from the core area, the journey there is not only difficult and dangerous, but it is no wonder that the prices are so exaggerated. The freight alone is far higher than the value of the items themselves.
After half a month of long journey, Chen Li and Zhou Hong were already exhausted. After dinner, they strolled around for a while and fell asleep after returning.
Early the next morning, the team set off again.
This time, the number of people following was reduced by half.
…
Two days later.
Luanluo City is already in sight.
Luanluo City is the largest city in the Changsheng Domain.
This is a city wrapped around a mountainside.
Seen from a distance, there are clouds and mist, and the tall snow-white city wall is like a white dragon, tightly wrapping the mountain peaks, hiding the city protection formation. Even though it is several miles away, Chen Li can feel it
That obscure and terrifying mana fluctuation.
On the winding mountain road leading to Luanluo City, there are countless monks coming and going.
There were also many monks using their magic weapons flying through the air, whistling one after another, making it extremely lively.
No matter from which point you look at it.
Compared with Green River Fang, it is completely different from Yunni.
"Luanluo Mountain has a third-level spiritual vein. Unfortunately, most of the spiritual energy has been intercepted by the Changsheng Sect. The spiritual energy distributed to Luanluo City is only equivalent to the effect of the first-level spiritual vein. However, it is already extremely rare." Yu Fanzhen introduced to Chen Li
road.
"Where is the Changsheng Sect?"
"It's located at the top of the mountain!" Yu Fanzhen said.
Chen Li looked up.
It was completely covered in clouds and fog, making it impossible to see.
This year-long chaotic war finally ended with mutual compromise. The Changsheng Sect is still standing, relying on its strong foundation as the Jindan Sect, and has always firmly controlled its core area.
But for other areas, we had to give up.
The reason why the ancestor of the Yu family couldn't wait to return from Green River Fang this time was because he had obtained the approval and commitment of the Changsheng Sect.
On the one hand, an old Zhu Ji who has only a short time to live has no desires and desires and will not have any undue ambitions.
On the other hand, it is to avoid being co-opted by other forces.
It is also because they are old and have limited time. This kind of people are more dangerous than ordinary foundation-building monks. As long as they make a promise, they dare to do anything for the continuation of their family and bloodline, and they don't have to take their lives as their fate.
This was the case with the ancestor of the Golden Pill of the Changsheng Sect.
This kind of old foundation building can also be done in the same way.
…
Chen Li and Zhou Hong followed the flow of people into Luanluo City.
It's like breaking through a barrier and entering another world.
"What a rich spiritual energy!"
The spiritual power is almost the same as the last time I went to the Yu family mansion.
Chen Li felt refreshed. Breathing the air here, even the silent spiritual power in his body began to slowly and spontaneously circulate.
It is as warm as spring here, with lush vegetation, rows of buildings, and dense crowds.
Everyone kept looking here and there, extremely excited.
Chen Li and Zhou Hong looked at each other.
They all saw each other's joy.
"Fellow Daoist Chen..." The ancestor of the Yu family walked over with a smile on his face. He was obviously in a good mood: "Now that we have arrived in Luanluo City, we have to say goodbye to you for a while. The Yu family lives here and has some reputation and reputation here.
If you have any problem, you can come to see me when the time comes."
Chen Li quickly handed over his hand and thanked him.
The ancestor of the Yu family briefly explained and gave the Yu family's address before they parted ways.
Soon the crowd dispersed.
"Brother, where are you going next?" Zhao Lin said.
"We are not familiar with the place here, and everyone is tired from the journey. It is better to find an inn that can provide food and accommodation, settle down temporarily, and then slowly look for a permanent residence!" Chen Li said.
These words reached Zhang Shuniang's heart, and she couldn't help but nod her head subconsciously.
She really didn't want to leave anymore.
She fell into a coma after walking before and waited until the day to rest. After the camel beast came down, she was embarrassed to continue sitting on the camel beast. She gritted her teeth and persevered through the rest of the journey.
Fortunately, if Chen Li said it, no one would object.
The group soon found a small inn and settled down.
A single room costs one low-grade spirit stone per day, and a larger double room is not more affordable, so two are needed.
Everyone booked for two days.
Fortunately, the room price includes meals.
Two plates of ordinary side dishes, one meat and one vegetarian, and unlimited rice are provided.
Don't think about anything else unless you pay separately.
After finishing the meal in a hurry, everyone went back to the room to sleep without much chatting. The sleep was so dark that Chen Li slept in the afternoon and didn't wake up until the next morning.
He didn't wake up Zhou Hong, who was still sleeping soundly.
Chen Li stuffed some dried meat to fill his stomach.
He went to the inn and wandered around.
The streets are full of people coming and going, and there are monks everywhere.
There are also many mortals among them, most of whom work as servants and engage in low-end jobs that monks are unwilling to do. Compared with the smelly Green River Fang, this place is undoubtedly much cleaner.
Since Luanluo City is a ring-shaped city wrapped around the mountainside, the city ring is very narrow, no more than two or three miles wide. It takes only ten minutes to walk from the cut rock to the giant white wall more than ten meters high.
When it was being built, it was obvious that the amount of work was extremely large.
"Living here is life, and being in Green River Fang is living."
There are many shops here.
Chen Li's family came over to shop. He didn't plan to buy it at first, but he couldn't help it soon.
"Shopkeeper, how much does this robe cost? If the price is right, I'll take it." Chen Li stared at a cyan robe and turned to the shopkeeper.
"Fellow Taoist, you really have a good eye. This top-grade first-grade robe is made of second-grade spider silk, which is invulnerable to water and fire. It is embroidered with golden light, which has six practical functions: warding off fire, gathering spirits, transforming into wind, like spring, and avoiding dust.
The magic circle is not expensive, it only requires sixty medium-grade spiritual stones, and you can take it." When the shop owner saw a big customer coming to the door, he became energetic and said enthusiastically.
Just need it!
Chen Li felt his tooth hurt when he heard it.
When I first bought that second-level magical sword, I spent thirty-five middle-grade spiritual stones.
The price of a first-level top-quality magic robe is far higher than that of a second-level magic sword. There is really no reason to explain.
I'm just really excited.
This robe is embroidered with a golden light magic circle, which can passively trigger a golden light protection spell every day. In times of sudden danger, it is equivalent to multiple lives. This is the value of this robe.
Next, Chen Li tried his best to make a fierce counteroffer.
In the end, the price of forty-five middle-grade spiritual stones was finally settled with the discount of the gray mid-grade robe on his body.
When I came out, I was wearing a new robe.
He touched the robe with pleasure and it felt extremely smooth: "It's true that it's expensive. When you wear it, you feel a sense of security, and your temperament is different."
Next, Chen Li continued to wander around.
In the bookstore, I bought more than ten books.
In a large magic weapon shop marked by the Changsheng Sect.
He bought a first-class, top-quality hairpin-style magic weapon called the Lingluan Chai, and spent 25 middle-grade spiritual stones on it.
Then we went to visit a talisman shop.
At the price of 30 low-grade spiritual stones each, I bought ten evil-breaking talismans and spent nearly 3 medium-grade spiritual stones.
Then I inquired about some commonly used symbols one by one.
I found that the talismans here are much cheaper than those at Green River Fang.
Evil-proof Talisman: A low-grade spiritual stone.
Light Body Talisman: Two low-grade spiritual stones.
Arrow avoidance talisman: two low-grade spiritual stones.
Demon dispelling talisman: three low-grade spiritual stones.
Amulet: Four low-grade spiritual stones.
The above are still store prices, and stall prices will obviously be cheaper.
"In such a large cultivation city, there are obviously more talisman masters and the competition is more fierce. This bowl of rice is not delicious. Fortunately, the price of amulets is still considerable." Chen Li sighed.
Then he asked about the price of the Golden Light Talisman.
I found that the price is the same as the Evil-Breaking Talisman, only thirty low-grade spiritual stones.
"Oh, what a loss!" He felt depressed, and suddenly he was in no mood at all.
I originally bought three golden talismans at the price of three medium-grade spiritual stones each, but none of them were used. Adding in the capture from the subsequent attack on the leader of the Linghu Gang, I had a total of six golden talismans on hand.
"If I had known earlier, I should have sold a few and kept one...three would be enough. I would have lost nine middle-grade spiritual stones."
…
After Chen Li returned, Zhou Hong had already gotten up.
"You're back. I was looking for you just now... Did you buy a new robe?" Zhou Hong's eyes lit up when she saw the blue robe on Chen Li.
"I bought it for you too!" Chen Li had already changed his mood and said with a smile. He took out the Lingluan hairpin from the storage bag: "I have long said that I would buy you a new hairpin, but I haven't found the right one yet.
After procrastinating for a long time, I finally found the opportunity today to buy this first-class magic weapon. See if you like it?"
Zhou Hong quickly covered her mouth and said movedly: "I like it. I like everything you buy."
"I'll put it on for you!" Chen Li said.
Zhou Hong's heart was as sweet as honey. She said "hmm" and shyly turned her back. She casually took off the original hairpin and put it aside. Chen Li stepped forward and inserted it into her bun.
Then he smiled "hehe" and a pair of strange hands reached out randomly.
