Yunlai Zhai

However, he currently had two 'Tier 1 High-grade Gold Sword Talisman' entries. This Tier 1 High-grade Gold Sword Talisman in his hand could serve as a means for Baili Qiuyue, as he feared she might be in danger if she returned home alone!

After dealing with that, he began to harvest the ripe Yellow Barley Malt Grass before him.

It looked easy to harvest, but it turned out to be quite strenuous. He hadn't expected this Yellow Barley Malt Grass to be so tough. He was currently a Qi Refining second layer cultivator, about to break through to Qi Refining third layer.

Logically, such spirit grass should be easy to harvest, but harvesting even a single stalk felt difficult because the Yellow Barley Malt Grass was as hard as steel.

Thinking about the remaining five mu of Yellow Barley Malt Grass, he felt a pang of dread. He wondered why Chu Tianxing had given him such seeds; it left him quite puzzled.

But then he thought about the baby that was about to be born and his Cultivation Partner, Baili Qiuyue, and their future life. He just had to grit his teeth and cut them down one by one, because each stalk of Yellow Barley Malt was a spirit stone, and he currently had no other channels to earn spirit stones.

He had to accumulate some from here first!

He worked the entire day before he finally cleared one mu of spirit field.

Then, he used the 'Minor Accomplishment Spirit Rain Technique' entry on this mu of spirit field. Since he had just finished harvesting, it was the end of one crop, and he definitely needed to replenish the spirit field with some Spiritual Energy to prepare for the next crop.

After casting the Minor Accomplishment Spirit Rain Technique, he became even more proficient in using the Spirit Rain Technique. Previously, his casting of the Spirit Rain Technique had always been at the beginner level. Who knew that after using this 'Minor Accomplishment Spirit Rain Technique' entry a few times on the spot, his experience in casting the Spirit Rain Technique grew richer, and the incorrect casting methods he used before were slowly being corrected.

Through this incident, he discovered that the effects of these entries could not only be applied but could also be more helpful to the caster.

After a few more tries, he could normally cast the Spirit Rain Technique at the Minor Accomplishment level.

If he could obtain the 'Great Accomplishment Spirit Rain Technique' or even the 'Perfection Spirit Rain Technique', then his Spirit Rain Technique casting realm could also reach the Great Accomplishment or Perfection realm.

This was simply wonderful. After all, for a cultivator to cultivate a spell to the Great Accomplishment or Perfection realm was an extremely formidable state.

Spells at the Great Accomplishment realm were practically at the stage of 'true mastery'.

And normally, cultivating a spell to such a state was very difficult. Decades or even a hundred years of cultivation were practically impossible. But if too much time was spent cultivating spells, then there would be no time to improve one's cultivation realm, which was a very troublesome matter.

It might lead to a situation where you cultivate a spell to the Perfection realm, but your lifespan runs out because your cultivation realm didn't advance, resulting in insufficient lifespan.

Lu Wanyuan also thought that if he obtained entries for other types of spells, then his other types of spells could also reach such a level, as long as he could acquire enough entries for those types of spells.

This way, he could save a lot of time and simultaneously be able to cast multiple spells that had reached the Perfection realm. The power of such a feat would surely be unbearable for ordinary people.

Thinking of this situation, Lu Wanyuan became extremely excited. He eagerly awaited that day, wanting to see how his opponents would deal with him, who possessed multiple spells at the Perfection realm.

After harvesting the Yellow Barley Malt Grass, he extracted two golden leaves from the stalks.

A full mu of land yielded only six jin of golden leaves.

Then, with a Fire Dragon Technique, he burned all the tall piles of Yellow Barley Malt stalks nearby, using them as fertilizer.

It was somewhat like picking tea leaves; after cutting off the stalks, the next crop could grow. If these stalks were not cut, the few golden leaves on top would not regrow. The roots of the grass would allow the Yellow Barley Malt at the bottom to grow anew, and then the golden leaves would grow!

He stored the six jin of golden leaves in a storage bag and then left the mansion.

Before long, he arrived at the main road, with shops, businesses, pharmacies, pawnshops, and workshops lining both sides. The buildings were of various styles – tall and short, some made of wood, others of stone.

The entire place was crowded, bustling with people. He hadn't expected such a dense crowd; it truly looked like a scene of heavy traffic and a cacophony of voices.

After two hours and passing by several establishments, he finally found three shops that specialized in purchasing Yellow Barley Malt golden leaves.

After some consideration, he decided to go to a shop called Yunlai Zhai.

"Little brother, you're here again. Haven't you decided what to buy yet?"

Shopkeeper Wang, upon seeing Lu Wanshan standing at their shop entrance again, walked forward enthusiastically to greet him.

"Yes, but I'm not here to buy anything. I'm here to sell something. I wonder if you accept it?"

"We do! Of course, we do. You know what our shop does, right? We specialize in selling Spirit Talismans. Of course, we also buy the raw materials for Spirit Talismans, and we buy Spirit Talismans too, as long as you have them!"

Shopkeeper Wang explained.

"Oh, you buy Spirit Talismans here too?"

Lu Wanyuan asked with a bit of surprise. He had thought they only bought raw materials for making Spirit Talismans, but he hadn't expected them to buy Spirit Talismans themselves.

He immediately thought of selling this Tier 1 High-grade Gold Sword Talisman. This way, he would have extra spirit stones, which he could use to do many other things.

Another reason was that he was in this market town, and his cultivation strength was growing rapidly. There shouldn't be any major problems.

His current mission was to earn spirit stones, to make his first fortune.

"Yes, little brother, come in quickly. Let's sit down and discuss how we can cooperate!"

Shopkeeper Wang said enthusiastically and then walked ahead to lead the way.

Lu Wanyuan followed closely. Before long, the two arrived in a small room.

"Little brother, please have a seat! I am the shopkeeper of this establishment. You can just call me Shopkeeper Wang!"

"May I know your surname, little brother, and how should I address you?"

"My surname is not unworthy of mention, it is Baili. My given name is Yuan!"

Lu Wanyuan replied. When traveling outside, one must use a false name. He had combined Baili Qiuyue's surname with his own given name, just in case.

"Oh, Little Brother Baili, please have some tea?"

"May I know what item you are planning to sell to my shop?"

Shopkeeper Wang picked up the teapot and poured Lu Wanyuan a cup of hot tea.

"Um, it's this. What would be the price?"

Lu Wanyuan immediately took out about a jin of yellow malt golden leaves from his storage bag and placed them on the tea table.

"Huh? You actually have this item?"

Shopkeeper Wang looked at the pile of golden leaves on the tea table with surprise, then picked one up.

The leaves were about ten centimeters long and entirely golden. Although their edges were fuzzy and serrated, they felt very smooth to the touch.

They felt especially thick in the middle.

Looking at their condition, it was clear they had been harvested recently. The leaves hadn't deformed, and each one was perfectly preserved, with no Spiritual Energy having dissipated from within.

"One jin for 100 spirit stones!"

"100 spirit stones? Shopkeeper Wang, your price is a huge disappointment. I originally thought Yunlai Zhai was the most reputable shop in the Bayberry Market. I did some research around here and knew the general prices. I thought Yunlai Zhai had a good reputation, but the reality is a bit..."

Lu Wanyuan spoke in a rush, then slowly closed his mouth and stopped talking.

Seeing this, Shopkeeper Wang showed an embarrassed expression and said, "Brother Baili, business is like this, it's all about negotiation between both parties!"

"Alright, I also see you as a straightforward person, Brother Baili. How about this: I'll offer you 115 spirit stones per jin. What do you say? If you're not satisfied this time, then there's nothing I can do. This is my highest offer!"
