Even in Zhenjiang City, the Da Xia Kingdom Trading Company was still the most eye-catching shop in the prefectural city.
It occupied a large area with four floors, one more floor than the Da Xia Kingdom Trading Company in Origin Mountain City.
The fourth floor was for Nascent Soul cultivators.
After Lu Qingshan left the Cai Mansion, he went straight to the Da Xia Kingdom Trading Company.
After entering the Da Xia Kingdom Trading Company, he saw that the first floor was almost a hundred meters wide. There were dozens of green-robed servants inside, and there were even more customers.
As expected of the largest and most trustworthy trading company in Zhenjiang City.
After killing Daoist Master Weeping Soul and obtaining two storage rings, Lu Qingshan's wealth was unimaginable.
In terms of Spirit Stones alone, Lu Qingshan had more than twenty Fourth Stage Spirit Stones and more than a hundred Third Stage Spirit Stones.
As for the remaining First and Second Stage Spirit Stones, Lu Qingshan didn't care about them at all.
There wasn't much point in keeping the Spirit Stones. Lu Qingshan needed to convert these Spirit Stones into his own battle strength.
After all, Origin Mountain City was only a prefectural city. It was impossible to buy good Magic Tools, pills, and talismans.
Therefore, Lu Qingshan waited until he came to Zhenjiang City before he prepared to spend some money.
After entering the Da Xia Kingdom Trading Company, Lu Qingshan didn't stay on the first floor for long. He went straight to the second floor.
The items on the first floor didn't mean much to him now.
Compared to the first floor, the second floor was much more deserted.
The second floor was for Foundation Building cultivators.
… Even in Zhenjiang City, Foundation Building cultivators weren't everywhere.
Lu Qingshan, who was only in the Qi Refining Realm, quickly attracted the attention of some customers on the first floor.
Which big clan's disciple is he?
Some cultivators muttered in their hearts.
Normally speaking, Qi Refining cultivators who came to the second floor should be those rich disciples of big clans.
"Young master, may I know what you need?" A fifth layer Qi Refining manservant in a green robe greeted him very respectfully.
Lu Qingshan glanced at the manservant and said indifferently, "I need to buy some magic tools, talismans, and medicinal pills. However, I want the best things on the second floor!"
The green-robed servant was slightly startled when he heard this. But, he carefully sized up Lu Qingshan. He was certain that Lu Qingshan wasn't joking. So, his face immediately beamed with a smile.
He had met a big client, but he didn't know which family's young master he was from.
"Young Master, please come this way and have a seat inside. I will call the shopkeeper to discuss with Young Master." The green-robed servant quickly led Lu Qingshan into a private room on the second floor.
Many guests on the second floor had already noticed Lu Qingshan's situation.
Seeing Lu Qingshan being led into the private room used to entertain big clients, some people were quietly discussing something with their companions, while some people's eyes flickered. No one knew what they were planning.
Inside the private room.
The antique furniture and tables were decorated elegantly and generously. It was comfortable and comfortable.
There was also an incense burner in the corner of the room. A stick of incense was slowly burning in the burner, filling the room with a faint sandalwood scent.
Not long after Lu Qingshan sat down, a cultured and refined middle-aged man walked in with a female servant.
The female servant carried a teapot and several teacups.
"I am the shopkeeper of the second floor of the Da Xia Kingdom Trading Company. How should I address Young Master?" The middle-aged man asked with a smile.
"Lu Qingshan."
"So it's Young Master Lu." The middle-aged man turned around and ordered the female servant, "Hurry and pour Young Master Lu some tea."
After the female servant poured the tea, Lu Qingshan didn't stand on ceremony. He picked up the teacup and took a sip. Then, he politely said, "Good tea!"
The middle-aged man smiled and said, "I heard that Young Master Lu wants the best magic tools and talismans on the second floor. I have already ordered the manservant to bring over a few treasures from the storage room. I guarantee that you won't be disappointed. Young Master Lu, please wait a moment."
Lu Qingshan nodded slightly.
After a while, six or seven manservants pushed open the door and entered. Each of them carried a tray. On the tray were simple brocade boxes.
The middle-aged man placed the brocade boxes on the table and opened them one by one. He introduced them to Lu Qingshan one by one.
"Meridian Sealing Needle of the Benevolent King. Low-grade Spirit Weapon. Made from Frost Soul Iron …"
"Pass. I'm not interested in this magic tool." Lu Qingshan glanced at the needle-like magic tool in the box and said calmly.
He currently had the Weeping Soul Sword. He didn't need any offensive magic tools.
Moreover, which sword cultivator would use needle-like magic tools? Wasn't it embarrassing?
The middle-aged man's expression didn't change. He opened another brocade box. Inside the box was a talisman.
Lu Qingshan's eyes lit up.
Because he recognized this talisman. It was a Beast Talisman!
Lu Qingshan picked up the Beast Talisman.
[Beast Talisman – Spirit Leaf Ape]
Grade: Second-grade Beast Talisman
Description: A Talisman Master sealed the soul of a demon beast into the talisman to refine it.
Talisman Effect: Can summon the soul of a Second-grade demon beast, Spirit Leaf Ape.
Duration: 30 minutes.
Uses: 1/1
Spirit Leaf Ape Basic Attributes: Strength 20, Agility 5, …
Talents: [Abnormally Strong] (Health + 100), [Soul Body] (Physical Damage Reduction 20%, Magic Damage Increase 20%), …
Skills: … (Omitted)
— — —
Beast Talismans were one of the most practical and precious talismans. After using the Beast Talisman to summon a beast soul, the beast soul would instinctively attack under the cultivator's command.
It was equivalent to a low-grade demon pet.
This was also why a mere Second-grade talisman could make the Da Xia Kingdom's merchants solemnly store it in a brocade box.
Without waiting for the middle-aged man to explain, Lu Qingshan said directly, "I'll take this Beast Talisman."
The middle-aged man's face twitched slightly. "Young Master Lu is really forthright …"
The middle-aged man opened another brocade box. Inside was another talisman.
"This is an Aura-Concealing Talisman. It's one of the few Second-grade talismans on the second floor …"
[Aura-Concealing Talisman]
[Level: Third-grade]
[Talisman Effect: Can conceal one's aura, making it difficult to detect. It also has a great shielding effect against Foundation Establishment cultivators' Divine Sense.]
.....
After using this talisman, even Foundation Establishment cultivators would find it difficult to detect him with their Divine Sense.
— Gou Dao Talisman.
Lu Qingshan nodded to himself.
"I'll take this Aura-Concealing Talisman as well!"
.....
After a long time, Lu Qingshan walked out of the Da Xia Kingdom's merchant shop with a full load.
This time, it could be said that he had armed himself from top to bottom, inside and out, with spirit stones.
He felt that at this moment, his entire body was exuding the fragrance of a Kryptonite tycoon.
…
Other than the [Beast Talisman: Spirit Leaf Ape] and the [Aura-Concealing Talisman], he also bought many offensive talismans inscribed with Second-grade Five-Element Spells in the Da Xia Kingdom's merchant shop.
He did not buy many pills. Some common healing pills or pills that recovered Spiritual Force were in the Reverend Weeping Soul's storage ring, so he did not need to replenish them.
The only pill he bought was the [Snow Lotus Pill].
[Snow Lotus Pill]
[Grade: Second-grade Pill]
[Description: Refined from a snow lotus that can heal damage to the soul. Therefore, it will have a certain effect on the soul of a cultivator.]
[Effect: After taking it, the soul will gain a layer of protection for six hours, and it will have a certain degree of resistance against soul attacks.]
…
Anything, as long as it was related to the soul, its value would multiply several times.
This bottle of [Snow Lotus Pill] was no exception. Although it was only a Second-grade pill, Lu Qingshan had spent five times the price of an ordinary Second-grade pill to buy it.
But it was worth it.
Few low-level cultivators would master soul attacks, so this bottle of [Snow Lotus Pill] would most likely not be of any use.
But Lu Qingshan never took any chances.
This could be considered as him making preparations to defend himself against a Spirit attack.
Before he learned soul secret arts, he could only rely on these external objects to deal with soul attacks from cultivators.
He only bought one Artifact.
[Water Cloud Eight Gates Shield]
[Grade: Low-grade Spiritual Artifact]
[Description: Refined from a complete Water Cloud Stone into eight pieces. It is incomparably sturdy and indestructible.]
This Artifact is composed of eight Water Cloud Shields. Once activated, the eight Water Cloud Shields will revolve around the user for defense.]
[Artifact Effect: Sturdiness + 4]
[Active Special Effect: [Eight Gates Shield]]
Activates the eight Water Cloud Shields to form a shield. The shield has a durability value.]
[Durability value: 100100]
[Additional Effect: Once the durability value is depleted, the Artifact will no longer be able to use the [Eight Gates Shield].
…
With the [Water Cloud Eight Gates Shield], Lu Qingshan's meager HP finally gained some security.
+ 4 Sturdiness. Even a Foundation Establishment Cultivator would feel that it was quite tough.
And the skill effect of the [Eight Gates Shield], in layman's terms, was equivalent to giving Lu Qingshan an additional 100 layers of armor.
In the end, Lu Qingshan also spent a large sum of money to buy thirteen purple lightning pearls the size of a pill.
[Lightning Pearl]
[Description: Consumable. It is created by a Dharma Cultivator using a special technique to condense the lightning of heaven and earth. It is extremely powerful.]
[Effect: Releases the power of compressed lightning and explodes with great damage.]
…
The power of the Lightning Pearl was extremely great. If a Foundation Establishment Cultivator was careless and took the Lightning Pearl head-on, they would instantly turn into ashes.
In addition, the Lightning Pearl was easy to use. One only needed to use a bit of spiritual energy to detonate the Lightning Pearl. It was basically equivalent to having no consumption.
The only drawback was that it was too expensive.
One Lightning Pearl cost five Third Stage Spirit Stones.
The rich and overbearing Lu Qingshan did not hesitate to buy all thirteen lightning pearls.
These thirteen Lightning Pearls could be used as a trump card.
…
The gains were not small, but the price was not small either.
Lu Qingshan's huge sum of Spirit Stones was almost completely spent by him.
After organizing his gains, Lu Qingshan looked at his Attribute Panel.
Without hesitation, he used up all the experience points that he had accumulated for a long time.
"[Qi Drawing Technique] increased to Lv.9, Spiritual Energy + 10!"
"[Qi Drawing Technique] increased to Lv.10 (01000), Spiritual Energy + 10, obtained 1 free attribute point!"
As usual, he allocated this free attribute point to his Strength attribute.
"[Qi Drawing Technique] increased to Lv.10 (10001000) max! This technique has been upgraded to the highest level. Special effect obtained: Spiritual Energy + 50! "
"Detected that you have reached the upper limit of your current level. Obtained the advancement mission [Foundation Establishment]!"
[Foundation Establishment]: Learn a Foundation Establishment technique.
After half a month, he was finally going to break through to the Foundation Establishment realm.
Lu Qingshan was filled with emotions.
It was not easy.
