After getting five Qianyuan Tongbao, Fang Xian went out on the streets the next day, wanting to see if he could get something good.
Unfortunately, opportunities were not cabbages. After a day of shopping, he got nothing and could only return to the inn.
After a few days.
Just as he was about to set off and continue to look for his own opportunities, he suddenly heard a few customers talking, "A new fool came to the Ten Thousand Treasure Tower, exchanging silver for copper coins. Tsk tsk … Unfortunately, we don't have that much in stock, or we would have gone too."
"Brothers, may I know what you are talking about?"
When Fang Xian heard this, her heart was moved. She walked forward with a smile and invited them to a jug of wine. Immediately, these people began to speak eloquently.
It turned out that a strange person stayed in the Ten Thousand Treasure Tower today. He said to the merchants in the city that he was willing to buy copper coins at the price of one tael of silver and one thousand copper coins. It immediately caused a commotion.
The copper coins in circulation in the Great Qian Dynasty were always worth one thousand copper coins. The official value was one tael of silver.
But in fact, because of the different color, texture, and weight, it was fine when the country was founded. Now, it was common to forge it privately. About 1,200 to 1,300 copper coins could only be exchanged for one tael of silver.
That person exchanged for it at a price of 1,000 copper coins. Wasn't he a fool?
Another customer sighed, "Unfortunately, that person only accepts' Qianyuan Tongbao '. It's too late to forge it privately …"
"I see. Thank you for telling me."
Fang Xian cupped his hands and went straight to the Ten Thousand Treasure Tower.
It was located in the city, a place where merchants gathered. It had eight doors and was very imposing.
Fang Xian went in and saw a group of people carrying bags of copper coins, exchanging them for silver at a counter.
Behind the counter, there was a shopkeeper and a manservant, holding an account book and a brush with a pained expression.
Although they were all lent to the merchants by the Ten Thousand Treasure Tower, it still pained them to see the silver flowing out like water.
The real owner was a young man dressed like a scholar. He glanced at the copper coins and was disappointed. He nodded, "Send them to the warehouse."
Fang Xian opened the [Eye of Dongxuan] and knew that this person was a cultivator.
Not only so, the aura he emanated was pure, clear, and not demonic at all. Clearly, he was a disciple of an orthodox sect.
If this person was from a demonic sect or an unorthodox sect, he would not have acted this way.
"Little brother, do you want to exchange for copper coins?"
The shopkeeper asked with a smile.
"Mm, how much do you think this one is worth?"
Fang Xian smiled and took out a Qianyuan Tongbao!
"This …" The manservant beside him was enraged. "Sir, are you here to make fun of us? You'll need at least a thousand coins to exchange for it! "
"Wait!"
The young owner's eyes lit up as he stared at the copper coins in Fang Xian's hand. "I wonder what this little brother is prepared to exchange for? As for gold and silver, I have everything here. "
"Haha!" Fang Xian laughed and pointed to the quiet room at the side, which was specially used for businessmen to discuss business. "Shall we go in and discuss in detail?"
"Sure!"
Under everyone's puzzled gaze, the young owner entered the quiet room with Fang Xian. He quickly calmed down and said, "I didn't expect to meet a cultivator in Luzhou City. I am Gengkwang Masamune, Cao Qiu. May I know your name and master?"
"My name is Fang Xian. I'm just a rogue cultivator. I came across this copper coin by chance. I know that it's extraordinary, but I don't know why … I heard that you want to exchange for copper coins, so I came to take a look …" Fang Xian answered with a smile. "I wonder if you can answer my question? As for this copper coin, I'll give it to you. "
At this time, Cao Qiu had already taken the copper coin and nodded. "It really is a Psychic Treasure Coin! However, we are both cultivators. How can I accept such a big gift from you? You'd better make a request. Whether it's ten thousand taels of silver, Dharma spells, or talismans, I have them … "
Fang Xian had a knowing look on his face.
Cultivators of the orthodox sects were very particular about fate.
If he had met a rogue cultivator from the demonic sects or unorthodox sects, he might have just snatched it away and left nothing for himself.
However, the orthodox sects were different. The elders of their sects cultivated the Heavenly Dao and were good at divination. They knew the principle of Bodhisattva being afraid of karma and all living beings being afraid of karma.
If Cao Qiu accepted the copper coin without asking for anything in return, it would form an inexplicable fate. After some time, it might turn into a tribulation in his future cultivation. He would have to give Fang Xian a greater 'fate'. When that time came, it would not be something that could be satisfied with mere silver, Dharma spells, and talismans.
Of course, he could just kill Fang Xian and put an end to it.
However, as the sin of killing brewed, the final Heavenly Tribulation would become even more brutal. Wise cultivators would not choose this path.
Cultivators of the orthodox sects were taught by their elders and understood this principle. If their actions were in line with the Heavenly Dao, they would face fewer tribulations in the future. This was the difference between life and death.
On the other hand, the rogue cultivators of the demonic sects and unorthodox sects did not know this principle. They would do whatever they wanted and kill to break through the Heavenly Tribulation. This was the difference between life and death. Although most of them would die in the Heavenly Tribulation, if they could break through it, their cultivation would be amazing!
"I still want to hear about the origin of this Psychic Treasure Coin. Of course, if it's related to the secrets of your sect, then there's no need to tell me."
Fang Xian had calculated this point and said fearlessly.
After all, he had already 'given' the copper coin to someone else. Even if that person had evil intentions, there was no reason for him to cause trouble.
"It's not a secret, it's spread far and wide …" Cao Qiu smiled bitterly.
Cao Qiu replied with a wry smile, "This Psychic Treasure Coin is the main material to forge a flying sword, the Psychic Treasure Coin Sword! This unorthodox sword crafting technique is spread far and wide. It's not unique to just one sect. "
After explaining, Fang Xian realized that the copper coin in his hand could be used to craft a famous flying sword!
Of course, this would require him to collect at least 365 Heavenly Cycles. His five Heavenly Cycles were simply not enough.
Although the Psychic Treasure Coin Sword was widespread, it was difficult to craft. The main reason was the Psychic Treasure Coin.
In the beginning, it needed to refine the Crimson Copper Essence, Five Metal Essences, and other precious materials to form the copper coin.
Not to mention how rare these materials were, the key was that the heat of the weapon was too strong and could not be used at all.
It had to be dispersed into the human world to be worn down by the people. During this period, it could not come into contact with black dog blood, geraniums, or other filthy substances. Otherwise, it would be wasted. After about 500 years, the heat would subside and it would become the Psychic Treasure Coin, which could be used to craft swords.
This' Psychic Treasure Coin Sword 'was an unconventional sword. It was not particularly sharp, but when it was used, it had an aura of the mortal world. It was also quite mysterious, but it could only be considered a low-grade flying sword.
"It took him five hundred years to forge this sword?" If it wasn't for the Gold Pill Grandmaster, I would have died of old age … "
Hearing this, Fang Xian was speechless.
"My master is preparing to refine this flying sword. He calculated with his fingers and ordered us disciples to come out and search for Psychic Treasure Coins. I am not talented and have only found twenty-five coins after running around the five prefectures. I still need five more to return to the sect …"
Cao Qiu sighed after he finished.
"I see." Fang Xian nodded. He understood the cause and effect.
"Today, I got one from you. It is fate that brought us together. I have to make it up to you … Tell me, what do you want?" Cao Qiu was quite generous. After all, Gengkwang Masamune was one of the famous orthodox sects. His disciples were quite rich. "I have gold, silver, dharma spells, dharma treasures, and some unorthodox Daoist books. Unfortunately, you only have one coin. You can exchange it for a minor dharma spell. If you have a few more, you can exchange it for dharma treasures. Don't even think about Daoist books. You can't get anything without at least 30 …"
"Who said I only have one?" Fang Xian grinned and took out four identical Psychic Treasure Coins.
Even if he had 365 of them, he did not have the spiritual energy to craft the Psychic Treasure Coin Sword. He might as well exchange it.
"Alright!"
Cao Qiu was overjoyed. With these coins, he could finally return to the sect. "Little brother, what do you want? Just tell me!"
"I don't dare to think about Daoist books. But I want a flying dharma treasure!"
Fang Xian had been traveling leisurely every day. She was really annoyed, so she said after thinking for a while.
"That's easy …"
Cao Qiu swiped the dharma treasure pouch on his waist and a wooden horse puppet appeared in his hand. "This' Six Imperial Horse 'is a small dharma treasure that I made. It only has seven Earthly Malice Seals, but it can carry people …"
As he spoke, he passed the activation and retraction incantations to Fang Xian.
"Thank you, brother!"
After obtaining the flying dharma treasure, Fang Xian bade farewell and walked out of Plethora Treasure Tower.
After a few steps, he saw a cloud of light fly out. It shook the top of the city wall and let out a carefree laugh before flying away.
Many people knelt down and worshipped the immortals.
'As expected of immortals, they don't care about the mortal world. After completing their mission, they went straight back to the sect … That's right. Gold and silver are just something that I made casually …'
Fang Xian saw this and nodded to himself.
