Much later.
Following the instructions on the access control Identity Token, Cheng Buzheng and Jiang Fugui returned to their respective rooms.
Room A-65, inside.
The room was only ten zhang in size, and the interior decoration was extremely simple, with only a bed made of Spirit Iron Wood and a Glazed Lamp on the ceiling, emitting a bright light.
See here.
Cheng Buzheng, Cheng Buzheng stepped forward and sat cross-legged on the bed.
immediately.
He took out a Long-necked Jade Bottle, poured out a Azure Cloud Pill, and swallowed it.
Then, Cheng Buzheng closed his eyes and began cultivating again.
He never slacked off in his cultivation, day after day, year after year.
Perhaps, in his past life, he was so persevering that his quality of life could have been several levels higher!
Perhaps due to a lack of motivation, he chose to take things as they come and give up!
But this world is a world of cultivation, so what are worldly Fugui, honors, and concubines? They are all within his grasp if he wants them.
The great power returns to the cultivation world within itself.
Immortality is what he truly desires!
Even though he now has a lifespan of over 270 years, he has never squandered his time.
These two hundred years, roughly equivalent to Zhu Yuanzhang starting with just a bowl, from the founding of the Ming Dynasty to its rise and fall, is equivalent to a complete dynasty!
This is merely the lifespan of the Foundation Establishment Realm cultivator.
This clearly demonstrates the long lifespan of cultivators!
One day in the future, it's not impossible that one could live as long as the heavens.
The greatest pursuit of every cultivator in this world of cultivation.
This day.
Cheng Buzheng, who was sitting Cheng Buzheng on the wooden bed, suddenly frowned.
A short while later.
Cheng Buzheng stood up and opened the door!
A large, stout figure blocked the doorway completely.
See here.
Cheng Buzheng smiled and said:
" Martial Brother Jiang, please come in!"
As he spoke, he gestured for him to come closer.
"I'm not sitting anymore!"
Jiang Fugui shook his head and said:
"Junior Brother Cheng, there are many fellow disciples trading in the hall!"
"I looked around and didn't see you. As expected, you're in the room."
Then, Jiang Fugui glanced at Cheng Buzheng and continued:
"Junior Brother Cheng, would you like to take a look? I saw many rare Spirit Material on the stall, as well as the Spirit Heart Ore you've been searching for."
"If you're not going, I won't disturb your cultivation."
As he spoke, Jiang Fugui seemed about to turn back.
Upon hearing this...
Cheng Buzheng's heart stirred, and he smiled slightly:
"Thank you for telling me this, Martial Brother!"
"I wonder, does the other party want to exchange for a spirit item, or do they need to purchase it with Spirit Stone?"
"Let's go!" Jiang Fugui said.
"Let's talk as we walk!"
Cheng Buzheng nodded in agreement:
"Then please lead the way, Martial Brother."
Before long, Cheng Buzheng also learned from Jiang Fugui that the other party was a Martial Brother in the Foundation Establishment Middle Stage who wanted to exchange for pills to improve his cultivation.
The value of a single piece of Spirit Heart Ore cannot be compared to the value of a cultivation-enhancing pill.
However, this Spirit Heart Ore plays a crucial role for Cheng Buzheng.
In response to this...
Cheng Buzheng silently made plans in his mind.
A short while later.
The two entered the hall.
Along the walls of the hall, several fellow disciples sat cross-legged, each with a piece of Beast Skin laid out before them, upon which were placed numerous spiritual objects.
immediately.
Cheng Buzheng followed Jiang Fugui to a stall in the northwest corner.
On the Beast Skin were several jade bottles, jade boxes, Talisman, and other spiritual items. Among them, a transparent stone caught Cheng Buzheng's attention.
Cheng Buzheng a beat, but he then looked at the other spiritual objects as if nothing had happened, without showing any unusual expression on his face.
Not long after.
Cheng Buzheng glanced at his Martial Brother sitting behind the stall and casually said:
" Martial Brother, how much is this Spirit Heart Ore?"
The Martial Brother, who appeared to be middle-aged, glanced at a junior brother who was in the early stages of Foundation Establishment, and said indifferently:
"I'll only exchange it for pills that can advance my cultivation to the Foundation Establishment Middle Stage!"
Upon hearing this...
Cheng Buzheng frowned, somewhat displeased, and said:
" Martial Brother, your price is too high!"
"How can the value of this Spirit Mine compare to the value of Spirit Pill?"
Upon hearing this...
The Martial Brother, sitting cross-legged at the stall, brightened up and then smiled:
"The price difference will naturally be covered by my Martial Brother!"
"Junior brother, do you have any pills that can improve your cultivation?"
Cheng Buzheng naturally understood the reason behind his Martial Brother's change in attitude.
Pills that can enhance cultivation Foundation Establishment Realm are rare and hard to find even in White Cloud City. They might not be plentiful even in the Endless Sea. Even if such pills were available on the market, they would probably sell out very quickly!
With a large number of people and limited supply, even many Foundation Establishment Realm cultivators often find it difficult to purchase meat.
Immediately.
Cheng Buzheng said calmly:
"Junior brother, I do indeed have a bottle of pills that can improve Foundation Establishment Realm cultivation, but it's Azure Cloud Pill!"
" Martial Brother, I'm afraid you'll be disappointed."
Upon hearing this, the Martial Brother sitting cross-legged at the stall hesitated.
He knew about the Azure Cloud Pill; it was a high-quality Spirit Pill, especially effective for those in the Foundation Establishment Early Stage, allowing for significant advancement in cultivation.
However, its effect is significantly reduced in the Foundation Establishment Middle Stage, but it still has some effect.
Spirit Heart Ore is also a rare and hard-to-find Spirit Mine. Although its value is not as high as that of pills that improve cultivation, its scarcity is no less than that of Azure Cloud Pill.
Cheng Buzheng did not respond immediately upon seeing his fellow apprentice, the stall Martial Brother.
He knew that his Martial Brother was currently considering the matter and couldn't wait for him to make a decision. Once the other party made a decision, it would probably cost a huge price to complete the deal.
Immediately, Cheng Buzheng's thoughts shifted, and he spoke:
" Martial Brother, I shall take my leave!"
" Martial Brother Jiang, let's go!"
With that, Cheng Buzheng spoke to Jiang Fugui, who remained silent beside him, before turning to leave.
Upon hearing this...
The senior Martial Brother, who was hesitant, quickly spoke up:
"Junior brother, please wait!"
Cheng Buzheng turned around and looked at his Martial Brother, saying:
" Martial Brother, what brings you here, junior brother?"
The middle-aged Martial Brother smiled, but he was still hesitant. Now that he had called out to his junior brother, he needed to make a decision at this moment.
Immediately, he made a firm decision and thought to himself:
"Anyway, I won't lose out. In terms of scarcity, the Azure Cloud Pill is no less valuable than the Spirit Heart Ore. Even if I don't consume it myself, I can still trade it with others!"
The Martial Brother calmly said:
"Since you want this Spirit Material, junior brother, I'll sell it to you to fulfill our brotherly bond!"
"I formed a good relationship with my junior brother."
Cheng Buzheng didn't believe a word his senior Martial Brother said. Although the Spirit Heart Ore was the Spirit Material he needed, the Azure Cloud Pill wasn't something that could be bought with Spirit Stone.
He would only remember this favor if he bought the Spirit Material with Spirit Stone.
Cheng Buzheng thought to himself.
However, Cheng Buzheng smiled, as if accepting a favor from the other party, and clasped his hands in a fist and said:
"Thank you so much, Martial Brother, for parting with your precious gift!"
immediately.
The two completed the transaction, and the other party made up the price difference.
Cheng Buzheng put away the Spirit Heart Ore and Spirit Stone, bid farewell to his Martial Brother, and then walked with Martial Brother Jiang to the other stalls.
