In the Merchant Alliance, many people like Liu Ru Yin are responsible for trading with cultivators. Although they receive a monthly salary, it is not high and cannot meet their cultivation needs.

All the people in the Chamber of Commerce were originally lone cultivators. Before joining the Chamber, they were impoverished and destitute. They knew the cruelty of the cultivation world and the hardship of survival better than any other cultivator. Therefore, serving guests was not something they found difficult to accept; it was simply a necessity of life.
Lu Ye sighed as he walked out of the Tianji Chamber of Commerce.
He was also thinking about whether he could sell those storage bags, but Liu Ruyin distracted him and made him forget.

It's not good to go back now, so I can only wait until next time. He originally planned to set off and head to the Azure Blood Sect's base, but it seems unnecessary to rush now.

I have some good things on hand, digesting them completely and transforming them into my own cultivation is the right path. With higher cultivation, it will also be safer on the road.
As for accommodation in the Heavenly Machine Merchant Alliance, Lu Ye didn't consider it. He was short of money right now. While a night's stay cost only one spirit stone, that would add up to a considerable expense if he stayed for many days.
Lu Ye still had four spirit stones left. Following the memory from daylight, he found a medicine shop and spent two spirit stones to buy two Yinling Pills. Then he returned to the street where the stall was set up during the day.
Lu Ye randomly took a few pieces of ore from his storage pouch and placed them on the ground. He then sat cross-legged and took out a spirit stone.
This is the first time he's ever gotten his hands on spirit stones. These things can help with cultivation.

Although he had never practiced with spirit stones, he hadn't eaten pork but had seen pigs run. During the day, he saw many vendors here, selling things while holding a spirit stone and practicing, looking very relaxed and content.

Now that he has learned and practiced, Lu Ye discovered a good benefit of cultivating with spirit stones.
That means you can interrupt the practice at any time, unlike taking an elixir. The power of the elixir will open in your abdomen, and if it is not guided in time, it will cause a blockage of dantian energy.

Even at night, this street was bustling with activity. Disciples came and went, inquiring about prices. Lu Ye handled them as effortlessly as he did during the day, miraculously striking a deal. One piece of ore sold for five spirit stones.
When the sky began to lighten, Lu Ye stopped his practice this time. He opened his palm and looked at the spirit stone. It had only shrunk a little. Then he looked at the increase in spiritual power in his tenth acupoint, Lu Ye frowned slightly.
After a night of trying, he came to several conclusions.
Cultivating with spirit stones is safer than using spirit pills. First, the cultivation process can be interrupted at any time. Second, cultivating with spirit stones carries no risk whatsoever, just like absorbing the spiritual energy of heaven and earth.
But in terms of efficiency, it's far less effective than swallowing a pill.
Perhaps because of his own talent, it was difficult to guide spiritual energy into his body. Lu Ye felt that at his current cultivation rate, he would probably have to meditate non-stop for several days to consume a single spirit stone.
While other cultivators may be more efficient, they are definitely not as good as taking pills.
As for the value for money...
The value of a spirit stone is basically the same as that of a nourishing spirit pill. The spiritual power gained after consuming a spirit stone is roughly equivalent to the spiritual power gained from consuming a nourishing spirit pill, so their cost-effectiveness is about the same.
After this test, Lu Ye understood why everyone needed to exchange spirit stones for pills to cultivate. In terms of efficiency, taking pills was indeed higher, and naturally more popular.
As dawn approached, Lu Ye packed up his stall and left the market.
Since you're unwilling to spend money on accommodations at the Tiangji Merchant Alliance, then you'll just have to look elsewhere.
He was preparing to return to the cave on Qingyun Mountain where he had been before. It was still relatively safe there, and he wouldn't be disturbed while practicing.
The reason why it didn't leave at night is that traveling at night is unsafe.
Before leaving, he spent two spirit stones to buy a lot of food. Hunting in the mountains was very time-consuming, and the beasts in that area were scarce.

Compared to when I first entered the Lingxi battlefield, my assets haven't changed much, but my cultivation level has increased dramatically.
Li Ye believed that if he could transform everything in his hands into strength, he could likely advance several realms in Lingxi.
However, this kind of thing cannot be rushed. We need to take our time and proceed gradually.
There are many cultivators coming and going in the market, most of them travel in groups. Some, like Lu Ye, are lone wolves, those who are unwanted by their aunts and uncles, the wandering cultivators.
When Li Yè left the inn, it was still early morning. He was alone and had to be careful.
After successfully entering Mount Qingyun, Lu Ye sprinted all the way, even deliberately making several detours to make sure no one was following him. Only then did he proceed along the mountain path leading down.
Before noon, Lu Ye hurried back to his previous cave.

In that cave, a snow-white figure lay on the ground, snoring loudly. Could it be anyone other than the Great Tiger?
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like translated!
Yīyī drifted out from Dahu's forehead and met Lüyè's gaze, the scene becoming a little awkward.
"What are you doing in my house?" Lu Ye questioned.
"Aren't you already gone?" 依依 asked.
"I'm back!"
<<>>
Lu Ye's shout of "Get lost!" echoed from the cave.
After shooing away the "one spirit, one tiger" who were trying to take over his space, Lu Ye ate something and then entered a state of cultivation.
He first took out the two Gathering Spirit Pills he had spent spirit stones to buy, swallowing one. After the pill's power dissolved in his abdomen, he guided the spiritual energy into his spiritual orifice.
The power of the tenth acupoint gradually accumulates.
The power of the Spirit Nourishing Pill had been completely consumed, and Lu Ye opened his eyes. He discovered a problem: the effect of this Spirit Nourishing Pill he bought from the market seemed inferior to those given to him by the Sect Master. The difference wasn't huge, but it was definitely there. This could be inferred from the amount of spiritual energy accumulated in his own spiritual apertures.
He did not stop. He swallowed another Essence Gathering Pill and, after the pill's power was fully consumed, he became even more certain of this result.
Then, he took out the Yún Líng Dān obtained from Tiān Jī Shāng Méng and swallowed it.
After a comparison, he finally came to a conclusion: Liu Ru'in did not lie to him. The Yunling Dan in Tianjishangmeng was indeed better than the ones sold outside, similar to the ones given to him by the headmaster.
It seems that I haven't wasted any money. In the future, when buying elixirs, I should still go to the Heavenly Machine Merchant Alliance. At least the quality is guaranteed. |
