If Xu Chunniang happens to be at the critical moment of comprehending the formation when Hidden Winged Insect reports, she will most likely be disturbed by the outside world and escape from that mysterious state.
Fortunately, such a thing did not happen.
Xu Chunniang took out her cloak, put it on and stepped out of the small courtyard.
She unexpectedly broke through the formation and became a third-level formation mage. However, she still needed many materials to successfully deploy the third-level formation.
After the last time she changed her disguise into a middle-aged nun, she has maintained this appearance, which is convenient for her to go out to buy things.
When she was in the Xiaoyao Sect, although Xu Chunniang was not a direct disciple, her master treated her kindly, and she looked through many of the profound formations in the formation pavilion.
When Yue Yanru was preaching and teaching, he even talked about many advanced formations based on circumstantial evidence.
In Xu Chunniang's hands, there were several jade slips recording the third-level formations, all of which came from her master.
The formations recorded on these jade slips used to be difficult for her to understand when she read them.
But now when my spiritual consciousness sweeps over it, I feel like I am suddenly enlightened and enlightened.
It's just that many of the materials used in these third-level formations are unique to the five northwest sects.
In this world of cultivation on the sea, I'm afraid it's hard to find.
Xu Chunniang strolled around the market for a while, and as expected, there were many materials that the monks here had never heard of.
Even if I happen to find one or two of them by chance, the price remains high, several times higher than what it was at Wu Zong in the northwest.
Xu Chunniang had expected this and was not surprised.
In addition to the formations obtained from the Xiaoyao Sect, she also obtained two third-level formations on the third floor of the Cheng family library, called the Taiyin Devouring Dragon Formation and the Three-turn Ghost Evil Formation.
Among them, the three-turn ghost evil formation is more complicated, and the materials used are mostly ghost evil things, which are quite difficult to find.
On the other hand, most of the spiritual objects used in the Taiyin Devouring Dragon Formation came from sea monsters, so it was not difficult to assemble them.
Xu Chunniang has a total of 300,000 spiritual stones, but to set up the third-level Taiyin Dragon-eating Formation, at least four third-level spiritual objects are needed.
For other secondary materials, apart from what she had on hand, she still needed ten or twenty kinds.
Since this maritime cultivation world is rich in cultivation materials and has few spiritual stones, Xu Chunniang only spent 100,000 spiritual stones to purchase four third-level spiritual objects.
The other dozen or so spiritual items cost a total of 60,000 yuan.
As a result, most of her 300,000 spirit stones were quickly wiped out, leaving only 140,000 spirit stones.
After purchasing all the materials, Xu Chunniang felt lucky. Fortunately, she was currently practicing in the maritime world of cultivation, which was rich in resources.
If you were in the five northwest sects, you might have to spend all your money to purchase all the spiritual materials.
140,000 spirit stones are actually not too much for a monk in the foundation-building perfection realm.
After all, the long-distance teleportation array costs 50,000 spirit stones each time it is used, which is a very huge number.
Although most monks will not easily leave the island where they live unless necessary.
But once your cultivation reaches the late stage of foundation building, or even the perfection state, in order to make another breakthrough, you have to accumulate more spiritual stones, go to various islands, and try your luck at the golden elixir.
Xu Chunniang was thoughtful, and just now she noticed that most of the spiritual wines in the market are mainly for improving cultivation, and there are not many spiritual wines that can restore spiritual energy.
She has a lot of red wine in her hand, maybe she can sell some of it in exchange for some spiritual stones.
After Xu Chunniang thought about it, she stepped into the largest wine shop in the market and explained her purpose.
The shopkeeper was very interested in the spiritual wine she said, "If it really has such miraculous effects, I should buy it at a high price."
Xu Chunniang first took out Pearl Wine and Manlu Xiang. She had a lot of these two wines in stock.
What's more important is that the spiritual energy content of these two spiritual wines is too low for her now, and they are almost completely ineffective.
The shopkeeper tasted the spiritual wine with great expectation, but after tasting the bland spiritual power in it, he frowned slightly.
"Although this pearl intoxication and nectar incense have some rejuvenating effects, their effects are too limited."
Xu Chunniang's expression did not change, "For us foundation-building monks, the spiritual energy in this wine is naturally too little, but for Qi-training monks, it is just right."
"That's it, those Qi-training monks don't have much money, so how can they get the extra money to buy spiritual wine?"
The shopkeeper shook his head, "But the spirit wine has no erysipelas, so it does have some merits. How about I price it at fifteen spirit stones per pound?"
Xu Chunniang naturally saw that this person was just saying this to lower the price.
Although spiritual stones are more valuable in this maritime world of cultivation, planting spiritual rice on these islands is not as convenient as in the five northwest sects.
Therefore, there is no need to worry about the market for the spiritual wine she produced.
The shopkeeper said nothing to the female nun in front of him, and then talked eloquently.
The implication is that it is very rare for spiritual wine to be sold at this price. If you miss it, you will not be able to sell it.
"In this case, I will go to other houses and ask."
Xu Chunniang waited for him to finish, nodded calmly, put away the spiritual wine on the table and left.
The shopkeeper became anxious when he saw it and hurriedly chased him out of the private room.
"Fellow Taoist, don't leave in a hurry. Everything is easy to negotiate. If you are not satisfied with the price, we can negotiate again!"
He just thought that he could keep the price down, and he never thought about not accepting this spiritual wine.
Who would have thought that this female nun, who looked dull and ignorant of the world, would just leave as she said.
Xu Chunniang stopped when she heard this, but did not look back, "I sincerely offer this spiritual wine. If the shopkeeper doesn't sincerely want it, then don't say anything more."
Seeing this battle, how can the shopkeeper keep lowering the price?
Afraid that the female nun would be dissatisfied, he even took the initiative to raise the price.
"I was wrong before, and I would like to apologize to fellow Taoist here. I am willing to buy this spiritual wine for thirty spirit stones per pound, no matter how much. If you are still not satisfied with this price, there is nothing I can do.
Already."
Thirty spirit stones have doubled from the previous price.
It is even higher than the price negotiated at Xiaoyaozong Winery.
Xu Chunniang finally turned around and nodded lightly.
Upon seeing this, the shopkeeper breathed a sigh of relief and re-entered the private room with a smile.
After two sticks of incense, Xu Chunniang left the wine shop.
The pearl drunkenness and nectar incense in her storage space were each two thousand kilograms less, but there were 120,000 spiritual stones more.
Four thousand kilograms of spiritual wine is not a small amount, but because the two spiritual wines she took out contained too little spiritual energy and were only effective on monks in the Qi training stage, they were not enough to attract the covetousness of people in the wine shop.
Before leaving, the manager of the wine shop asked her casually if she had any spiritual wine with more spiritual energy and better quality, but Xu Chunniang directly denied it.
Although Golden Core cultivators are more common on Pingfeng Island, Foundation Establishment cultivators still account for the majority and are a force that cannot be ignored.
Red crimson wine is far from precious, but its soul-reviving effect is very useful to foundation-building monks.
Xu Chunniang had no support behind her, so it was a bit arrogant to take out this spiritual wine.
Therefore, before her cultivation reaches the golden elixir, she does not intend to expose the red wine in her hand to avoid unnecessary trouble.
