The streets of the capital were bustling and bustling. The earth-shattering battle outside the city did not affect the people in the city. Instead, it became a topic of conversation.
Su Zimo left the restaurant and walked aimlessly in the bustling crowd, thinking about his future plans.
Since he had decided to stay in the capital, the first thing he had to do was find a place to stay.
Su Zimo would have to stay at this place for at least two to three years. It would not be able to cope – it had to be quiet and have a pleasant environment suitable for cultivation.
Su Zimo asked around and headed straight for Sky Treasure Pavilion.
The fastest way to find a place in the capital that he liked was to post missions at Sky Treasure Pavilion.
Most of the people who entered Sky Treasure Pavilion in the capital of Yan Country were Qi Refinement Warriors.
It was rare for a Foundation Establishment Cultivator to appear in a year.
However, Foundation Establishment Cultivators could be seen everywhere in Sky Treasure Pavilion of the Great Zhou Dynasty. In fact, there were even many Perfected Jin Dan. Although Su Zimo was a mid-stage Foundation Establishment Cultivator, he was inconspicuous in the crowd.
After entering the main hall, Su Zimo came before a cabinet and a beautiful maidservant walked up. She was dressed in a thin veil that revealed her petite figure and curves.
The beautiful maidservant revealed a sweet smile and asked, "Fellow Daoist, what can I do for you?"
Su Zimo asked, "I want to buy a house in the city. Do you have any recommendations?"
"Fellow Daoist, the best houses in the capital are mostly located on both sides of Jishui River. When you're bored of cultivation, you can open the windows and see the clear river. It's refreshing."
The beautiful maidservant took out a map and pointed at the houses on both sides of the river, introducing them with a smile.
Su Zimo nodded and chose a house by the shore, saying, "Let's do it here."
"Do you have a Sky Treasure Badge?" The beautiful maidservant asked.
Su Zimo hesitated for a moment before shaking his head.
He did have a Sky Treasure Gold Badge in his storage bag. However, that badge was extraordinary and would attract quite a bit of trouble each time he took it out.
Now that they were in the capital, Su Zimo did not want to have anything to do with Ji Yaoxue and incur the enmity of the Emperor of Great Zhou.
Back then, the scene of Dai Xu escorting Ji Yaoxue out of Ping Yang Town was still vivid in his mind.
Su Zimo could clearly feel Dai Xu's killing intent towards him!
The beautiful maid smiled and said, "If you don't have the Sky Treasure Badge, the total price of this house is 100,000 upper-grade spirit stones."
"Yes, one hundred thousand …"
Su Zimo nodded. Just as he was about to agree, his expression changed. He looked at the beautiful maid in disbelief and asked seriously, "100,000 pieces of high-grade spirit stones?"
"Yes." The beautiful maid's smile didn't fade.
"So expensive?"
Su Zimo was secretly shocked.
If it was 100,000 mid-grade spirit stones, he could still afford it.
However, 100,000 superior-grade spirit stones were equivalent to 10 million middle-grade spirit stones. He only had 200,000 middle-grade spirit stones left in his storage bag and it was far from enough.
The beautiful maid explained, "The spirit qi in the capital is much richer than outside and you'll be able to cultivate with half the effort."
Pausing for a moment, the beautiful maid continued, "Furthermore, apart from some special areas, killing and fighting are prohibited in the capital. If anyone attacks without permission, they'll definitely be killed by the Imperial Army of the capital! Even Perfected Jin Dan is no exception! Therefore, you don't have to worry about your safety when cultivating in the capital. "
Su Zimo remained silent.
Even if there were no downsides, he couldn't afford it.
"Why don't we change to a more secluded corner? It'll be cheaper," After a while, the beautiful maid could tell that Su Zimo was troubled and suggested.
"Forget it."
Su Zimo waved it off and asked in a deep voice, "I'll rent this house for three years. How much is it?"
The beautiful maid smiled. "A year's rent is 3,000 superior-grade spirit stones. That's 300,000 middle-grade spirit stones."
Su Zimo furrowed his brows slightly.
Prior to this, he truly hadn't expected that the houses in the capital would be so expensive.
"I'll rent it for a year first."
Su Zimo took out all the middle-grade spirit stones in his storage bag and sold some of the spirit weapons and elixirs in the blood-robed youth's storage bag on the spot, barely managing to gather 300,000 middle-grade spirit stones.
After handing over the spirit stones, Sky Treasure Pavilion was extremely efficient as they registered it swiftly and sent someone to bring Su Zimo to his residence.
Su Zimo walked around the house and was satisfied.
Although he no longer had any spirit stones on him and his future cultivation would be a problem, he was in no hurry.
Su Zimo intended to open a weapon workshop here and kill two birds with one stone.
On the one hand, he could earn spirit stones from weapon refinement to supplement his daily cultivation and expenditure.
On the other hand, Su Zimo had already mastered the art of tempering and with the image of weapon refinement left behind by Hokkaidōjin, he could make use of the weapon workshop to practice continuously and truly improve his skills!
Su Zimo was not only a Weapon Refinement Master, he was also a Sword Formation Master.
This meant that the deeper his attainments in weapon refinement, the greater the increase in his combat strength!
That was because Su Zimo could refine flying swords of higher grades and the sword formations he created would naturally be stronger.
Furthermore, he had once obtained a secret sword formation skill from Hokkaidōjin called the Candlelight Sword Formation but he had never had the chance to use it.
In the remaining two and a half years, Su Zimo intended to raise his weapon refinement standards and create a new set of high-grade flying swords!
Two and a half years was enough for him to refine the essence energy of the dragon egg within his body.
Before the sect competition, Su Zimo would truly be reborn and his strength would increase tremendously!
Su Zimo left the place temporarily with Night Spirit and headed towards the north-west corner of the Great Zhou Dynasty.
That was Yongxing City, a place where people from all walks of life gathered. Many elixir and weapon workshops were opened there as well. Su Zimo intended to take a look around and check out the market.
Although Su Zimo believed that his weapon refinement skills were not weaker than others, if he did not understand the market and the location was not in the downtown area, he might not be able to open his weapon workshop.
Before long, Su Zimo arrived at Yongxing City.
Yongxing City was divided into many streets. Some of the streets were dedicated to elixir refinement while others were dedicated to weapon refinement.
Su Zimo looked around as he walked.
The weapon workshops on both sides of the streets were lined up one after another.
Some of them were opened by individuals such as Liu Clan's Weapon Workshop and Chen Seven's Weapon Workshop.
Most of them were weapon workshops with sect logos such as Feiyan Weapon Workshop, Scarlet Rainbow Weapon Workshop, Golden Wave Weapon Workshop and True Fire Weapon Workshop.
Among them, True Fire Weapon Workshop was opened by one of the five major sects, True Fire Sect. It was also the largest shop with the best business in Yongxing City.
Most of the other weapon workshops only had two or three people in front of them. However, there was a long queue in front of True Fire Weapon Workshop.
True Fire Sect was one of the five major sects to begin with and had the highest achievements in elixir and weapon refinement within the Great Zhou Dynasty.
Every year, True Fire Sect would take up at least half of the ten spots on the Elixir and Weapon Rankings!
It was reasonable for True Fire Weapon Workshop to have such good business in the capital.
Su Zimo walked over and joined the queue as well.
