Spirit Stone Exchange

Spirit Stone Exchange, but in the end, Chen Mobai still decided to go to the bank to exchange it.

There was no special reason.

Because if he went to the bank to exchange spirit stones, the Immortal Sect awarded Points.

However much he exchanged was however much they gave. The Points system had originally been developed by the Immortal Sect precisely to take all the spirit stones among the people and bring them under state ownership.

One spirit stone, after exchange, would get him 10,000 Points from the bank. After he spent it, another 10,000 Points would enter his account. That was double the profit.

After school, he walked into the Vermilion Cloud City branch of the National Bank.

"Hello, sir. How may I help you?"

Inside the bank, a sweetly smiling Short-haired Uniformed Young Lady saw Chen Mobai standing in front of the number-taking machine, looking a little hesitant, and immediately came over to ask him kindly.

"It doesn't seem to have the service I want to handle."

"May I ask what service you need, sir?"

"Spirit Stone Exchange."

"I'm sorry, sir, but our branch has not yet opened the service for exchanging spirit stones."

The Short-haired Uniformed Young Lady's smile did not change, her face full of apology.

"No, you misunderstood. I said Spirit Stone Exchange, not exchanging spirit stones."

"Eh..."

Chen Mobai saw her smile suddenly turn stiff after she reacted, and could not help shrugging.

Only after two or three seconds did she come back to herself and cautiously open her mouth to confirm.

"Um, is that exchanging spirit stones into Merit Points?"

"Mm!"

"I'm sorry. Please come this way and sit for a while. I'll go call the manager."

The Short-haired Uniformed Young Lady immediately raised her hand, guiding Chen Mobai toward a small side room separated by transparent glass. After he sat down, she even poured him a cup of tea.

And at this moment, a Suit Man who had received the news walked over. After entering, he first reached out his hand to Chen Mobai and introduced himself.

"Hello, sir, I am..."

An hour later, Chen Mobai walked out of the bank's front doors with a satisfied expression.

The Spirit Stone Exchange business had always been the bank's highest-priority task. They would exchange however much there was. Chen Mobai took out his spirit stone and first let the other party appraise it. After confirming it had never been used, the rest of the matter became much easier.

First, he explained the origin of this spirit stone.

Chen Mobai again dragged it onto his ancestors, saying it had been saved up when they participated in the World Opening War, and now it had been passed down into his hands.

The bank merely recorded it and would not actually go investigate.

After confirming that Chen Mobai was a good citizen and that there were no problems with his credit record, it was just a matter of procedure.

Although Chen Mobai only needed to sit there, with someone helping him handle everything from start to finish, by the time the Merit Points and Points were transferred into his account, it had still taken a full hour.

Chen Mobai had originally wanted to exchange the empty shell of his used spirit stone as well. The Immortal Sect possessed the craft for infusing spiritual energy, so he thought they should buy it too.

However, that Suit Man told him that this service was the same as exchanging spirit stones; it would only be opened during the World Opening War.

Chen Mobai could only feel regret.

But looking at the five-digit account balance displayed in the newest text message on his phone, Chen Mobai still could not help laughing.

He had never had this many Merit Points before.

However, he did not lose his head either. After being happy for a while, he first used Big Account Azure Emperor to exchange for the Pure Yang Qi Cultivation Chapter from the National Library. But it was not convenient to read on the road, so he could only glance roughly at it.

When he was almost home, he again saw the pharmacy where he had bought Spiritual Power Test Paper last time.

Cultivating the Three Yang Body would transform the spirit root, and the extent of the transformation depended on spiritual energy and luck. It would be best if he could monitor the values at all times.

Chen Mobai thought for a moment, then walked in.

"Hello... oh, you're here?"

He had originally seen that there was no one by the counter and was just about to call out, but unexpectedly, the White Nurse Uniform Girl he had seen last time happened to come out from the back door carrying a large iron kettle and a big box of small Glass Tubes.

"Mm. I set up a small Array Formation at the door. When someone comes in, it automatically gives a prompt in the Alchemy Room at the back."

When the girl saw it was Chen Mobai, she remembered what happened last time. First, she put the things in her hands onto the counter, then cast a Cleaning Spell to remove the medicinal smell from her body before coming over to greet him.

She was still wearing a mask, so her face could not be seen clearly, but her brows and eyes were delicate, her gaze clear. After Chen Mobai met her eyes, his mind settled, and the restlessness in his heart from suddenly becoming rich unknowingly dispersed.

"What are you buying? Spiritual Power Test Paper again?"

"No. Do you have a Spirit Measuring Instrument here?"

"That thing is expensive. Do you run a tutoring class?"

The girl looked at Chen Mobai with puzzlement in her pupils. Spiritual Power Test Paper was a disposable item, but a Spirit Measuring Instrument was different; it could be used continuously. Generally, only people who ran tutoring classes for young cultivators would buy this thing, because they needed to use it in large quantities and teach students according to their aptitude.

"I'm going to cultivate the Spirit Root Enhancement Technique, so I need to constantly check my Spirit Root Attribute Points."

"Spirit Root Enhancement Technique? There's a cultivation method like that?"

The girl seemed about the same age as Chen Mobai and had not yet gone to university, so she did not know about cultivation methods that enhanced and purified spirit roots.

"Mm. My spirit root aptitude is average, and the College Entrance Exam is coming up soon. My hopes of breaking through to Late Qi Cultivation are slim, so I can only see whether I can make some improvement in my spirit root. I hope there can be an extra-credit item for getting into the Ten Great Academies."

After listening to Chen Mobai's words, the girl nodded, walked over to a medicine cabinet, squatted down, then took out a perfectly packaged Spirit Measuring Instrument from a drawer.

"580 Merit Points."

When Chen Mobai heard the price, the corner of his mouth twitched, and he felt that perhaps he had been a bit impulsive.

Spiritual Power Test Paper was 5 Merit Points a sheet. This one Spirit Measuring Instrument could buy more than a hundred sheets.

But after thinking about it, if he cultivated the Pure Yang Dharma Body, he definitely could not do without this thing. Always using disposable Spiritual Power Test Paper was not very environmentally friendly. Gritting his teeth, he paid and bought it.

Qing Nü saw Chen Mobai's conflicted look as he paid and knew he was not from some wealthy family either. A thought could not help surfacing in her mind.

Why doesn't this person bargain?

She had already thought it through. If Chen Mobai bargained, she would reduce it by 10 Merit Points for him.

However, since the customer was generous, she would not take the initiative to refund the money either. Seeing the ding-dong sound of the payment entering her phone, her clear eyes narrowed with a smile.

After confirming that Chen Mobai had no other needs, she walked to the counter. With one hand, she picked up the large iron kettle and poured the pot of freshly refined spirit water inside through the eagle-beak spout, filling the small Glass Bottles one stream at a time. Then she sealed them with Wood corks, and finally cast a "Sealing Spell" to ensure that the spirit water would not leak.

Is it Return Origin Spirit Water again?

Chen Mobai remembered what she had said last time and thought to himself. He did not ask either. After all, he had only spoken with her twice, so they were not very familiar.

Holding the Spirit Measuring Instrument, he directly walked out of the pharmacy's front door.

However, he kept feeling that there was something familiar in the image of the girl pouring the spirit water.

What exactly was it that made him feel it was familiar?
