Lin Qingyao held the paper in her hand, used a bit of spiritual power, and slapped it onto Ji Qing's chest. She hadn't intended for anyone to see it, nor had she expected him to be interested. Placing it on his chest... As a woman, being stared at like that made her feel embarrassed, even with the paper in between.

  At this time, I had no choice but to put up with Ji Qing for once.

  Lin Qingyao smiled and slapped this paper on Ji Qing's body.

  Ji Qing lowered his head and looked at the contents of the paper clearly, with a bitter face said: "Lin Shimei, isn't this just turning it into a mobile stall?"

  Lin Qingyao's crisp and clear voice, like a silver bell, came over: "Brother Ji, you're quite perceptive."

  Ji Qing was also a playful and mischievous person, but after a while, he found that everyone's attention was focused on him, and suddenly felt a sense of being in the spotlight, with an air of pride on his face.

  It's just a pity, people look but don't buy.

  Lin Qingyao pulled Ji Qing along, and they walked around the market, but no one came to ask about prices. Lin Qingyao felt a bit disheartened.

  "This Frost Soul Crystal is very rare, why doesn't anyone come to buy it?"

  This was Lin Qingyao's incomplete understanding of the Frost Soul Crystal, and she only knew half of it. Although the Frost Soul Crystal had its uses for a cultivator's divine sense, if one were to cultivate their divine sense, who would bother cultivating something as useless as this?

  The masters all thought that with that time and energy, it's better to go and cultivate diligently. When the cultivation is high, the divine consciousness will naturally become stronger.

  Those wandering divine consciousnesses, indeed need the Cold Soul Crystal, but in the Cultivation Realm, who kills people without cutting off the roots, even the divine consciousness is destroyed. Even if there is a divine consciousness, and this divine consciousness has entered the market under everyone's eyes, he still can't afford to buy the Cold Soul Crystal...

  I haven't heard of a divine soul that can bring storage bags or spirit stones with it.

  Nowadays, the only use of Soul Crystal is for those who have injured their spiritual consciousness, to repair their spiritual consciousness.

  Just as Lin Qingyao was about to give up, someone stopped Lin Qingyao and Ji Qing.

  She was a woman in her thirties, dressed simply in a plain linen skirt, which was rare in the cultivation world. Which female cultivator didn't love beauty? People in the cultivation world could even afford to dress themselves up nicely despite being poor.

  This woman's attire made Lin Qingyao feel a sense of reverence; the more extraordinary someone is, the higher their cultivation might be.

  Lin Qingyao gazed intently at him, asking, "Sir, are you here to buy a Frost Soul Crystal?" Lin Qingyao's voice was crisp and clear, leaving a good impression.

  After she finished speaking, she also saw the cultivation of the female cultivator clearly, which shocked her greatly. At first, when she looked over, the cultivation of that female cultivator was blurry and unclear. However, it seemed like the female cultivator noticed Lin Qingyao looking at her, and in an instant, Lin Qingyao sensed that the female cultivator's cultivation was at the seventh layer of Qi Refining.

  Although the initial vague feeling only lasted for a moment, Lin Qingyao felt that it wasn't an illusion. This could only mean one thing: this female cultivator's cultivation was higher than her own, and she could also conceal her true cultivation. The supposed Seventh Layer of Qi Refining must have been fake as well.

  "How much does it cost?"

  As for the female cultivator who didn't hide her cultivation, Lin Qingyao wasn't concerned, but she still showed respect and replied: "One hundred low-grade spirit stones in a box."

  This price was inquired by Lin Qingyao from those shops that collect Fa Bao materials, and then came up with it. Some only offered 90 low-grade Ling stones per box, and Lin Qingyao added 10 more Ling stones to make the current price.

  One hundred low-grade spirit stones, for the current Spirit Realm where spirit stone resources are scarce, is actually a considerable amount of money.

  For one hundred low-grade spirit stones, Lin Qingyao accepted very easily.

  The middle-aged woman nodded slightly, seemingly aware that the price was fair and didn't haggle, asking: "How many?"

  Lin Qingyao took out two boxes from her storage bag and handed them over to the middle-aged female cultivator.

  The middle-aged nun didn't say much, and from the air, she threw two pieces of spiritual stones to Lin Qingyao like a flying fairy. Then Lin Qingyao felt that her hand was lightened, and the jade box disappeared.

  Lowering his head to take a look, the spirit stone in his hand was actually a mid-grade spirit stone.

  Lin Qingyao was overjoyed at this, you see, although one hundred low-grade spirit stones can be exchanged for a mid-grade spirit stone, only an idiot would make the exchange. And as for the money, after calculating it all out, ten million yuan could only buy one low-grade spirit stone. Even if you had a vast fortune, don't even think about exchanging it for spirit stones.

  With the spirit stone, Lin Qingyao could naturally buy whatever she wanted.

  She first endured the pain and found a store, exchanging one of the spirit stones for a hundred low-grade spirit stones.

  She didn't forget her purpose for this trip and started turning around.

  It's just a pity that Lin Qingyao only bought seeds of some low-grade spiritual herbs, and as for seedlings, she didn't see any.

  After inquiring, Lin Qingyao only knew that planting spiritual medicine required a lot of energy, and now the spiritual energy was scarce, making it difficult to cultivate. Nowadays, only those large sects would raise spiritual medicine gardens.

  In Lai Fang City, there are many loose cultivators and low-ranking cultivators. These cultivators don't have the energy to cultivate spiritual medicine.

  No market, who will come to sell these things.

  Lin Qingyao had no choice but to buy all the spiritual medicines she saw.

  In his heart, he thought that there would be a time when he should enter the mountains to find some spiritual medicine for himself, otherwise it would truly be a waste of this heaven-defying divine artifact.

  "Hmm, don't you want to buy anything?" Lin Qingyao suddenly remembered Ji Qing and turned back to ask.

  Ji Qing smiled brightly: "There is... unfortunately... I don't have a spirit stone..."

  Just as Lin Qingyao sighed that there were still poor cultivators like her, Ji Qing suddenly smiled at her.

  Lin Qingyao instinctively felt that nothing good was happening, so she immediately covered her storage bag and thought to herself, hopefully it's not borrowing spirit stones, hopefully it's not...

  All that could be seen was Ji Qing's clear and elegant face, her red lips opening and closing, then uttering a sentence that made Lin Qingyao spit blood three feet: "Sister Lin, can you help me buy something..."

  Help him buy... help him buy!? Lin Qingyao almost thought she had misheard, how could Ji Qing have the nerve to say something like that.

  Lin Qingyao immediately shook her head, laughing. Her spirit stone wasn't blown in by the wind, and there was only this much. Half of it would be split into two halves to spend, yet he actually had the nerve to ask for her help buying things!

  Ji Qing saw Lin Qingyao refuse him and immediately fell to the ground, saying in a businesslike tone: "Just ten spirit stones... just ten spirit stones."

  Lin Qingyao continued shaking her head.

  "I just lent it to you as a mobile stall, not for you to sell twenty more spirit stones..." Ji Qing said pitifully, with a strong tone of accusation in his words, as if saying that Lin Qingyao was being very unscrupulous.

  Lin Qingyao's heart skipped a beat, and she felt that it was indeed the case. Looking at Ji Qing's pitiful appearance again, Lin Qingyao suddenly felt some sympathy for Ji Qing, and began to blame herself, as if she had really bullied Ji Qing.

  Lin Qingyao thought to herself, it's just about ten spirit stones, no big deal, might as well help him out.

  Just as Lin Qingyao was about to go out and get something, she suddenly froze.

  It suddenly dawned on me that why I wanted to give Qingling stone? Wasn't I determined to be a tough rooster?

  Lin Qingyu looked at Ji Qing with a suspicious gaze, she felt that something was off, and didn't think it was her own willing thought to give the spirit stone to Ji Qing, but couldn't quite put her finger on what wasn't right, after all, this was something she had said herself.

  "Lin Shimei, you are really a very good person!" Ji Qing's praise was still free of charge.

  In any case, the words had already been spoken, and in total, it wasn't as if Ji Qing had forced her to give him the spiritual stones. If she were to go back on her word at this time, Lin Qingyao really would feel embarrassed, so she could only take out ten spiritual stones and hand them over to Ji Qing.

  Ji Qing held the Ling Stone, with a joyful expression on his face.

  "Lin Shimei! Don't worry, I won't take this spirit stone for nothing. Sooner or later, I will return a great gift to you!" Ji Qingxia said matter-of-factly.

  But Lin Qingyao just listened to this and continued to regret the ten pieces of Ling Stone that were almost a waste. If she had known there would be today, it would have been better to stick the paper on her own chest. Even if someone looked at her through the paper and clothes, what could they do? It's still much better than losing ten pieces of Ling Stone for nothing.

  Just thinking about these ten pieces of spiritual stone made Lin Qingyao's teeth ache.

  In the space, nothing valuable like Ling Cao can be planted now, and she can't collect any more Han Hun crystals. These ten pieces of Ling Shi... Ah! She really doesn't want to give them to Ji Qing at all!

  Deep down, Lin Qingyao felt that this was a one-way trip with no return.

  But since it's already been given, thinking about it won't do any good. Lin Qingyao was entangled for a while, then comforted herself and told herself not to think about this matter again.

  Ji Qing had taken her spirit stone and started buying things for herself.

  Lin Qingyao always felt that the smile on Ji Qing's face was like a fox who had stolen a hen, but in the blink of an eye, the smile on Ji Qing's face turned into that kind of heartless and ruthless young man's joyful smile.

  This transformation was so fast that Lin Qingyao felt as if she had seen it wrongly.

  Ji Qing smiled and led Lin Qingyao to a stall in front of them.

  "Hey, fellow Taoist, how much are you selling this talisman for?" Ji Qing asked with a smile.

  The stall owner saw Ji Qing and thought he was a lovely young man, so she smiled and said, "Three spirit stones for one."

  Ji Qing asked again: "What about Fu Shui?"

  The talismans of the Xiuzhen world are not written with the legendary cinnabar, but are made from a kind of stone called Chi Yan Shi, which is ground into powder. Because Chi Yan Shi is also red in color, the occasionally exposed talismans are all crimson, leading people to mistakenly believe they were written with cinnabar.

  Later on, some Taoist priests, in order to gain fame and fortune, used cinnabar to draw talismans and incantations, so eventually everyone thought that talismans were made of cinnabar.
