The Inner Disciple Bazaar was an internal organization formed by the inner disciples. Here, one could purchase and sell the treasures one needed for cultivation. It was extremely convenient.
Under Cao Chengli's lead, they soon arrived at their destination.
It was a small courtyard at the foot of the mountain. Zhang Xuan flashed his token and entered the courtyard. Soon, he saw many stalls set up on the ground, and some resources were placed on them.
Longswords, cultivation technique manuals, heavenly treasures, elixirs, pets … There was everything!
However, these items did not belong to the sect. They belonged to the Inner Disciple Trial or the family.
"We only accept Sword Pavilion Coins, not Basic Immortal Pills!"
After asking a few stalls, Zhang Xuan got the same answer.
The reason why Zhang Xuan was selling these treasures was so that he could enter the Hall of Swordsmanship and the Hall of Swordsmanship to learn more profound swordsmanship, and the only way to enter those places was with Sword Pavilion Coins.
"What should I do without Sword Pavilion Coins?"
Zhang Xuan was depressed.
He had thought that the Basic Immortal Pills that Cao Chengli had contributed could be exchanged for money, but who could have thought that the other party would not accept them at all!
In the Ascendant Cloud Sword Pavilion, one's cultivation was not the most important thing. What was important was one's comprehension of Sword Intent and swordsmanship. As long as one could raise one's fighting prowess in these two aspects, one would be able to earn the support of the sect.
For this reason, pills that could increase one's cultivation like the Basic Immortal Pill were not that precious in this place.
"Young Master, why don't we … rob them? I saw a few people just now, and none of them are as strong as you. As long as we find a way to lure them to a corner, kill them, and rob them, we'll have everything we want …"
Seeing the worried look on the young master's face, Cao Chengli walked up to him and whispered softly.
"Snatch … snatch your sister!"
Zhang Xuan almost fainted from anger.
Can't you think normally?
This was the Ascendant Cloud Sword Pavilion, and the rules of the sect forbade robbery. If anyone dared to make a move on the Ascendant Cloud Sword Pavilion, they would not even know how they died!
To even lie to a corner... Do you think that all the inner disciples are fools?
There was no cultivator in the Ascendant Cloud Sword Pavilion who did not have some means up their sleeves. It was already a blessing that they did not end up getting robbed by others.
"How about this … I saw a beautiful inner disciple selling items earlier, so I'll go over and try to seduce her …"
Cao Chengli swore.
Zhang Xuan covered his forehead. He really wanted to kick this idiot to death on the spot.
"Go ahead, just don't get beaten to death …"
He couldn't be bothered with this idiot and walked along the stall.
Zhang Xuan continued asking around, and the prices of the Ethereal Tokens and Basic Immortal Pills were indeed around two Sword Pavilion Coins each. The difference between the prices of the two Ethereal Tokens and Basic Immortal Pills was around ten times.
In other words, he did not have enough Basic Immortal Pills in his possession to purchase an Ethereal Token.
"If we're using the Ethereal Token as the benchmark, why is there such a huge disparity in the prices of Basic Immortal Pills?"
Unable to hold himself back any longer, he turned to one of the inner disciples who was selling resources.
"You must be talking about the Ethereal Token from a remote place, right? The Ethereal Token was only a Great Sage 1-dan Ethereal Token, so its price was very low. On the other hand, the inner disciples of the Ascendant Cloud Sword Firmament Ascendant Cloud Sword Firmament Sword Firmament Sword Firmament Sword Firmament Sword Firmament Sword Firmament Sword Firmament As for the core disciples, the default Ethereal Token they use is the Pseudo Immortal realm, and the price is even higher! "
The inner disciple shook his head and explained.
"Oh …"
Zhang Xuan suddenly understood.
He did not think that the answer would be so simple.
He was using the Ethereal Token as the benchmark to determine the price of Basic Immortal Pills, but little did he know that the Ethereal Tokens in the Ethereal World were vastly different from the ones in the outside world.
How could the same account, one Immortal King and one Bronze Immortal Pill be the same?
After asking a little more, Zhang Xuan could not help but ask, "I would like to purchase an Ethereal Token. May I know if there are any good ways to earn Sword Pavilion Coins?"
"Good ways? I'm looking for one as well … If I could find one, I wouldn't have set up a stall here, "the inner disciple replied.
Zhang Xuan fell into a dilemma.
He had thought that he would be able to earn money just by answering questions, but it seemed like he had been overthinking things.
I only have seven Basic Immortal Pills and a storage ring right now … I don't think I can earn twenty Sword Pavilion Coins through selling these items …
If it came down to it, he could just set up a stall like the others. However, he did not have any treasures on him!
Storage rings were a scarce resource in Xuanjiang City, but in the Ethereal World, almost every inner disciple had one. Those who did not have one could rent one from the sect. There was no market for them at all!
As for the Basic Immortal Pills … even if he sold all seven of them, he still would not be able to afford an Ethereal Token!
Right, the bathwater from the gourd is extremely effective in treating injuries. If I can sell it, I should be able to fetch a hefty sum of money!
After a long moment of hesitation, Zhang Xuan's eyes suddenly lit up.
It had been ten days since he had arrived in the Azure, but he had not gone out at all. He had barely fought with anyone, so he was completely penniless. The only things he had were the bathwater from the gourd and a few bottles.
The bathwater was extremely effective in treating injuries. In fact, it was even more effective than pills. If he could sell it, he might be able to afford an Ethereal Token!
"Alright, I'll do it like this!"
With such thoughts in mind, Zhang Xuan took out some cloth from his storage ring and set up a temporary stall. He took out the jade bottle that contained the bathwater from the gourd and placed it on top of the stall. After a moment of hesitation, he took out a piece of cloth and wrote the words' Godly Recovery Medicine 'on it before sitting down.
"Godly Recovery Medicine? Brother, you sure are fearless of death … You shouldn't use the word 'god' as you wish! Otherwise, you'll be killed on the spot if you're discovered by the gods! "
The inner disciple standing next to Zhang Xuan shook his head.
"You shouldn't use it as you wish? Then … there's still the Sword God Hall in the Ascendant Cloud Sword Pavilion! "Zhang Xuan asked.
"The 'God' character in the Sword God Hall was snatched from the Hall of Gods by the founder of the Ascendant Cloud Sword Pavilion. However, due to the fact that it's only half a character, it can only be used to name an ordinary branch hall. Only the Ethereal Hall is qualified to use it on the Forsaken Continent. It's said that the founder of the Ascendant Cloud Sword God Hall single-handedly barged into the Hall of Gods and snatched the character from the gods! "
The inner disciple explained.
"There's a need to snatch the character?"
Zhang Xuan was perplexed. He asked the inner disciple for a moment before he finally understood what was going on, and he gasped in shock.
The Azure was known as the Forsaken Continent, and it was said that it was abandoned by the gods. As such, be it the Six Sects or ordinary humans, none of them were qualified to use the 'god' character. There was only one way to use it, and that was to enter the Hall of Gods and snatch the character from the gods!
Over the past several thousand years, of the Six Sects and the Ethereal Hall, only the Ascendant Cloud Sword Pavilion had obtained half a character, and the Ethereal Hall had obtained a single character. Even though the other sects were equally powerful, they had never succeeded before.
For it to be so difficult to snatch the character, one could only imagine how powerful the Hall of Gods was.
It seemed like the 'god' character was not to be used carelessly.
Zhang Xuan replaced the words' godly medicine 'with' immortal medicine 'and wrote' all kinds of injuries will be cured with the help of medicine 'below. Only then did he begin waiting for customers.
Two hours later, quite a few people came to take a look, but as soon as they uncorked the bottle, they would leave with a shake of their heads.
The recovery pills of others were filled with overwhelming spiritual energy, but his was no different from ordinary boiled water. It would be a wonder if anyone would buy it.
Just as Zhang Xuan was feeling that there was no future for him to sell his recovery pills, a young lady suddenly walked over.
She appeared to be in her twenties, and she had a tall figure and beautiful features. While she couldn't be compared to Zhao Ya and the others, she was still a rare beauty. However, there was a deep frown on her forehead, seemingly worried about something.
"Is your recovery pill really effective?"
After circling a few rounds around Zhang Xuan, he finally arrived before Zhang Xuan and gazed at him intently.
"Of course!" Zhang Xuan nodded. "It's able to cure any kind of injury. If it doesn't work, I'll refund the original price to you! "
The young lady hesitated for a moment before asking, "One of my kin was injured by an immortal beast. He has consumed quite a few recovery pills, but none of them worked. How much are you selling this for?"
In truth, she was just trying her luck. She had consumed countless recovery pills, but none of them worked. However, when she saw that the young man before her had actually written 'Immortal Recovery Pill' and 'all kinds of injuries will be cured with the help of medicine', she had decided to try her luck.
In any case, she was just giving it a try.
"A bottle of it costs twenty Sword Pavilion Coins," Zhang Xuan replied.
"Twenty Sword Pavilion Coins? Why don't you just rob a bank? "
The young lady exclaimed in shock.
Ordinary recovery pills, even those of Pseudo Immortal realm, would not cost more than ten Sword Pavilion Coins. Yet, a bottle of something that looked no different from water was actually priced at twenty Sword Pavilion Coins … This was way too much!
"You get what you pay for. As an inner disciple, the fact that I dared to offer such a price means that there's something special about it. Otherwise, wouldn't I have been killed by it?" Zhang Xuan replied coldly. "You can choose not to buy it, but the price won't change!"
After saying those words, Zhang Xuan closed his eyes, as if telling the young lady to buy it or scram.
While he had never done business before, he had read many books, so he knew how merchants worked. If he was in a hurry to buy something, the other party might not necessarily want it. In fact, the other party might even doubt his words, thinking that it was a scam.
If he put on airs, it would give others an unfathomable feeling, making it easier for others to trust him.
Not to mention, his recovery pill was not fake at all.
As expected, upon seeing Zhang Xuan's attitude, the young lady hesitated.
If she did not find a suitable medicine to treat her kin, there was a good chance that he would die. Otherwise, she would not have rushed to the inner disciple market to buy medicine.
However, with her eye of discernment, she was unable to tell what the effects of the water were.
After a moment of hesitation, the young lady picked up a bottle and harrumphed, "Alright, I'll buy it. If it doesn't work, I'll come looking for you. I'll show you the consequences of deceiving me!"
"Don't worry, if it doesn't work, I'll tear down my stall myself!"
Zhang Xuan replied calmly.
In any case, he was only going to sell it once. With an Ethereal Token in hand, would he still have to worry about money?
You must be joking!
He was definitely a professional when it came to cashing in!
"That's great!"
Heaving a sigh of relief, the young lady took out a pouch from the bottle and tossed it over. "Here are twenty Sword Pavilion Coins!"
After saying those words, she turned around and left the area.
Opening the pouch, Zhang Xuan saw twenty sword-shaped gold coins inside, and his eyes lit up in excitement.
He had thought that he would have to wait a little longer, but who would have thought that it would be so easy?
Standing up, Zhang Xuan was just about to pack up his stall and find a place to buy a Ethereal Token when the neighboring inner disciple looked at him sympathetically. "Hurry up and scram. Find a way to leave the Ascendant Cloud Sword Pavilion, or else you'll be reduced to meat paste very soon!"
