Adamantine Vine

Guided by the beautiful female cultivator, Ye Jingcheng walked through the long corridor and then climbed the lacquered red wooden stairs.

The Jin Family's shop on the second floor also came into view once again.

Clearly, business at the Jin Family's shop was a bit slow today. The fat manager sat motionless at the table, seemingly studying something.

"Young Master Ye, it's been a long time!" Upon seeing Ye Jingcheng arrive, the portly steward immediately stood up, stepped over his seat, and went forward to greet him.

They are much more hospitable than before.

"Young Master Ye is truly a prodigy, and now he has broken through again!" The chubby steward flattered him. Ye Jingcheng didn't reply, but his eyes brightened slightly, and he nodded in response.

"Young Master Ye, what would you like to buy today?"

"Do you have any second-tier vine seeds that can be used for wood cultivation? Lately, I've been feeling like I have no way to defend myself!" Ye Jingcheng asked.

Upon hearing this, the person in charge smiled in response.

Many people have been saying this lately, after all, there are unsafe factors in the market, and Ye Jingcheng, who has just broken through, naturally needs to buy some self-defense measures.

"I understand, Young Master Ye. We happen to have three types of seeds here!"

The portly manager led Ye Jingcheng to the spirit medicine area, making no mention of the previous verification of his credentials.

Once inside the spirit medicine section, the wooden shelves were introduced to Ye Jingcheng one by one.

"Young Master Ye, this seed is called the Succubus Vine, a mid-tier second-order seed. If this vine entangles a cultivator, even Foundation Establishment Middle Stage cultivator, they will suffer from hallucinations and their Spiritual Qi will be disrupted!" The fat master had taken out several black seeds beforehand.

Seeing that Ye Jingcheng had no expression, he moved on and took out another jade box.

The seeds in this jade box are lush and green.

"Fellow Daoist Ye, this is the Cerulean Sword Vine, a mid-grade second-tier weapon. The vine's speed is even faster than a flying sword, and its tip is extremely sharp, capable of piercing through most low-grade second-tier defensive Law Artifact!"

Ye Jingcheng shook his head at this, as being able to penetrate even a low-grade second-tier defensive Law Artifact was meaningless to him.

"Then this is all that's left, the Adamantine Vine, a second-tier high-grade Spirit Vine. Its toughness is comparable to a second-tier high-grade whip-like Law Artifact. Apart from its slow catalytic speed, it's an absolute treasure for wood cultivators!" The fat steward finally took out a box of golden seeds.

Upon seeing the golden seeds, Ye Jingcheng's eyes lit up with joy.

He is currently in the Foundation Establishment Middle Stage, and with the Crimson Flame Fox, Golden-Scaled Beast, Jade-Scale Snake, ordinary cultivators do not need him to use anything else, but extraordinary cultivators naturally need even more powerful vines.

"How many Spirit Stone does this Adamantine Vine?" Ye Jingcheng asked.

"Young Master Ye, these Adamantine Vine are among the best in our Jin Family's shop. Since you know our young master Yu Yutang, we'll give you three hundred Spirit Stone per seed!"

"Okay, then give me ten!" Ye Jingcheng nodded and counted out three thousand Spirit Stone.

These second-grade superior seeds are much cheaper than second-grade superior Spirit Talisman, so they are definitely a good deal.

Moreover, he can keep the seeds and cultivate them normally. In the Cultivation World, seeds used for catalytic combat cannot give birth to new seeds.

However, if cultivated normally, it can produce seeds just like ordinary vines.

However, the cultivation time is no shorter than that of some spirit medicine, generally ranging from five to several decades.

Ye Jingcheng could wait that long.

Moreover, he can still use the Adamantine Vine seed even if he reaches the Foundation Establishment Late Stage.

They are definitely not weak against their enemies.

After examining the vine seeds, Ye Jingcheng then looked at the other spirit medicine.

However, after going around the area, they did not see any of the other main ingredients of the second-tier Golden Scale Pill.

Now he has gathered the main ingredients for the second-tier Jade-Scale Snake, the second-tier Golden Scale Pill, and the second-tier Three-Color Pill, but he still has nowhere to go.

"By the way, please give my regards to your young master next time. This is a gift for Yutang!" Ye Jingcheng took out a pill bottle containing a Jade Soul Pill. After giving the Jade Soul Pill to the fat steward, Ye Jingcheng took out a small cloth bag.

Inside the cloth bag were three mid-grade Spirit Stone.

Although it wasn't much, it still made the chubby manager's face flush red, and he became even more polite, his eyes narrowing into slits with laughter.

Ye Jingcheng smiled and then left the shop.

Nowadays, the main ingredients for Jade Soul Pill are almost all provided by the Jin Family, so giving Ye Jingcheng one Jade Soul Pill as a gift is by no means excessive.

As for why this chubby manager was chosen, it's because he and Ye Xingyi are currently handling business dealings between the Ye Family and the Jin Family.

Having made no mistakes several times, Ye Jingcheng was not a stingy person.

Moreover, he estimated that 351 pieces of Adamantine Vine weren't expensive; 300 pieces per piece would definitely be a bargain for him.

After leaving Jin Family's shop, Ye Jingcheng strolled towards the street market square in the west of the city.

He announced his seclusion a month ago, which was known to many Rogue Cultivator bought pills from the Ye Family.

Now that Ye Jingcheng has revealed his Foundation Establishment Middle Stage in a half-concealed manner, his suspicion has been completely eliminated.

Otherwise, he was genuinely afraid that the Taiyi Sect would come knocking on his door and cast Spirit-Inquiring Talisman on him.

That's why he wanted to host a banquet for Chu Xiyu after hearing that she had saved him from this ordeal.

Of course, besides that, he also wanted to look around the market square to see if there were any good treasures.

The market square of Taichang Market is extremely large, much larger than that of Taihang Marketplace.

Although there aren't many cultivators who manage to snag a bargain, it still happens once or twice every few years.

Ye Jingcheng wasn't looking for opportunities elsewhere, but if he had Spirit Beast egg, he would have a significant advantage.

The street market square, which had been sparsely populated due to the sect competition, seemed to have become even more deserted again, perhaps because of the incident involving the Mo Family.

Although the number of cultivators was still dense, it was far less impressive than when Ye Jingcheng first arrived.

Ye Jingcheng also saw many vendors selling spirit eggs, but there were no bargains to be found, which left him slightly disappointed.

"I was the one who set my sights on this elixir first, I made the first offer, how could you sell it to him?" Just then, a noisy voice rang out.

Ye Jingcheng frowned, and a crowd quickly gathered at the street stalls in the distance.

Moreover, he discovered that he recognized this person; it was Meng Xuan, the one he and Ye Haiyi had impersonated when they were the Tang Family grandfather and grandson.

The other party's grandson possesses three Spirit Root and has always wanted to join the Taiyi Sect.

However, the Taiyi Sect requires all cultivators who are not trained from childhood to participate in the sect's grand competition, which is also known as the Ascension to Immortality Conference.

Meng Xuan is still around; he probably failed to be selected again last time.

Ye Jingcheng sighed. Cultivating immortality is difficult, and even joining a sect is difficult.

After all, even with three Spirit Root, one is not considered outstanding in the Taiyi Sect, and the quality of Spirit Root is also carefully considered.

It's estimated that Meng Xuan's grandson's Spirit Root quality isn't particularly good, and his strength is also somewhat lacking. Otherwise, it's been almost ten years, and he still hasn't succeeded.

"I was the one who set my sights on this elixir first, and I haven't even said I wouldn't buy it. How could you raise the price!" Meng Xuan was so angry that the veins on his forehead bulged, and his body was trembling.

In the Cultivation World, an unwritten rule is that if one person is bidding, the other person cannot bid.

The man confronting Meng Xuan was a wealthy young master, who also appeared to be a member of Lineage.

The shop owner, with a shrewd look on his face, clearly had the idea of selling at a high price to curry favor with the latter.

"You shopkeeper are not being honest!" Ye Jingcheng stepped forward, releasing his Foundation Establishment Middle Stage spiritual power.

The wealthy young man immediately frowned.

The shop owner was terrified. In the past, he might have dared to take action because he was not allowed to do so in the market, but now he was less confident.

"This young master is asking for a higher price."

"However he offers, I'll get one more Spirit Stone." Upon hearing Ye Jingcheng's words, the shop owner was immediately speechless.

Seeing Ye Jingcheng's cultivation level, the Lineage member dared not say anything more and left directly.

Once the price was mentioned, that was the end of it.

"This bottle costs two hundred Spirit Stone..." The shopkeeper was so frightened by this that he quickly adjusted the price.

Seeing that Ye Jingcheng's expression was still serious, she put on a mournful face:

"One hundred and fifty Spirit Stone!"

"Thank you very much, senior!" Meng Xuan looked at Ye Jingcheng with immense gratitude and bowed deeply.

"Senior, if I, your grandson, can successfully ascend to immortality, I will definitely repay you!" Meng Xuan continued.

Ye Jingcheng made no extra movements, seemingly simply disapproving of what was happening, and instead looked at an egg on the street stall.

How much do you sell these bird eggs for?
