Eternal Life: I Can Break Through The Limits Of All Methods

Chapter 13: Buying Insurance

The boss had a delighted expression on his face and praised Chu Ming for his generosity. He then picked out a one-pound attribute-less Spirit Fish for him.

Using control magic, he sucked the Spirit Fish out of the water and placed it in a fish tank filled with water on the side. He packed the fish tank and handed it to Chu Ming.

This way, the freshness could be preserved to the maximum. If this good thing was slaughtered and left for some time before eating, not only would a lot of spiritual power be lost, but the taste would also become ordinary.

He put the deer meat and the fish tank into a snake-skin bag, not worried about it spilling. Most of the space in the storage Law Treasure was fixed and would not move with the Law Treasure.

After leaving the Spirit Meat Shop, he continued walking along the street and soon arrived at a large Spirit Rice shop called Linggu Pavilion.

He walked in, and a shrewd-looking old man immediately greeted him.

"Guest, are you here to buy Spirit Rice or sell Spirit Rice?"

This old man had sharp eyes and, seeing Chu Ming's appearance, felt that he might be a spirit farmer.

If it were an ordinary customer, he would only ask if they were here to buy Spirit Rice.

"Of course, I'm here to sell. How much can you take?" Chu Ming asked.

The old man laughed, "Haha, of course, we can take as much as you have. Our Linggu Pavilion does a big business, so you don't have to worry about us not being able to handle it."

Chu Ming then took out the dozen or so bags of Spirit Rice from the snake-skin bag.

The old man couldn't help but show surprise when he saw so much Spirit Rice.

Usually, there were spirit farmers from the Divine Will Sect who came to sell Spirit Rice, but never this much at once.

He couldn't help but ask, "Guest, is all this Spirit Rice yours?"

Chu Ming thought for a moment and said, "It's mine and a few friends'. They asked me to bring it out to sell."

"What, too much to handle?"

The old man shook his head with a smile, "This amount of Spirit Rice is nothing to us. I was just a little surprised."

"Since it's Spirit Rice grown by several spirit farmers together, it's not surprising to have this much."

"We buy Spirit Rice here at the market price of one spiritual stone for ten jin of Spirit Rice. For every five hundred jin, we'll give you an extra spiritual stone."

"If you find our offer favorable, you can come here in the future. For every three hundred jin, we'll give you an extra spiritual stone."

Chu Ming nodded, "That's not bad. I'll consider it in the future."

The old man also used control magic to weigh it and found that it was a total of 2301 jin and 2 liang, which was not much different from what Chu Ming had claimed.

When he handed it over, the old man directly gave him 238 spiritual stones, which was equivalent to giving him 8 spiritual stones.

According to the offer of one spiritual stone for every three hundred jin, he should have only received 7 spiritual stones.

But the old man said that their shop could take a small loss, otherwise, it would be difficult to calculate the extra 1 jin and 2 liang.

Chu Ming's mood suddenly became joyful. Although it was just a small discount, it did make one feel very comfortable.

No wonder this Spirit Rice shop could become so big. The scale was different. Dealing with such a shop really made people feel comfortable.

And when the old man handed him the full bag of spiritual stones, he felt a wave of excitement in his heart.

In his previous life, he had never experienced the feeling of being rich. Coming to this Immortal Cultivation World, he finally got to experience it.

Such a large sum of spiritual stones might just be pocket money for inner disciples.

But for most outer disciples and independent cultivators in the market, this is wealth that takes several years to accumulate.

He quickly put the spirit stones into the snake skin bag, then placed the bag close to his body in his embrace.

After bidding farewell to the old man, he immediately walked to the street to find a shop that sells elixirs.

Carrying so many spirit stones on him, he felt a bit uneasy. It would be better to quickly buy what he needed and leave.

Walking to the tallest three-story building on the street, the three characters "Ruyi Hall" on the plaque caught his eye.

Looking inside from the outside, there were elixirs, talismans, and various Law Treasures on the shelves.

This is the place. He walked in, and a refined middle-aged male cultivator came out from behind the counter.

He bowed and asked, "Fellow Daoist, what would you like to buy?"

Chu Ming returned the bow and asked, "How much is a Low Grade Five Essence Pill? Do you have Low Grade Golden Spirit Qi Replenishing Pills? How many pills can I buy with one spirit stone?"

The refined male cultivator smiled and introduced, "A Low Grade Five Essence Pill is three spirit stones each, suitable for cultivators with five-colored spiritual roots like you who practice the Five Elements Art. It can greatly enhance your cultivation progress."

"A Low Grade Golden Spirit Qi Replenishing Pill is ten pills for one spirit stone. It can quickly replenish the golden spirit qi in your body. One pill is enough to fill your golden spirit qi."

Chu Ming nodded. The price was fair and not too expensive.

He planned to use the Low Grade Five Essence Pill when he practiced the Five Elements Art, and the Low Grade Golden Spirit Qi Replenishing Pills to replenish his golden spirit qi.

During this period, he intended to prioritize the cultivation of the Golden Light Slash and Swallow Flight Technique to the Transcendent stage, improving his combat power and escape ability.

The Swallow Flight Technique can be activated with any spiritual qi, while the Golden Light Slash can only be driven by golden spirit qi. If he wants to practice more, he needs to supplement it.

The Low Grade Golden Spirit Qi Replenishing Pills were not expensive either. It wouldn't hurt to buy more as a backup.

"Give me twenty Low Grade Five Essence Pills and one hundred Low Grade Golden Spirit Qi Replenishing Pills. That's all."

The refined male cultivator put the pills into several small porcelain bottles and placed them on the counter. He asked again, "Do you need anything else, Fellow Daoist?"

"We also have Low Grade Bone Strengthening Pills here. They can improve your physique, strengthen your bones, and work even better when combined with Body Refining techniques. One spirit stone can buy a large bottle, which contains twenty pills."

"There's also the Middle Grade Essence Restoring Pill. Even if you suffer a serious injury, it can heal you immediately. Fellow Daoist, do you have this life-saving elixir? It's a bit more expensive, twenty spirit stones per pill."

"We also have High Grade Teleportation Talismans. After using them, you can teleport to any location within a twenty-mile radius. Even if a Qi Refining cultivator is being chased by a Foundation Building cultivator, they can easily escape."

"If Fellow Daoist has enough spirit stones on hand, I also recommend buying one of these good items. Of course, they are more expensive, one hundred spirit stones per talisman."

"But compared to one's life, spirit stones are just external possessions and not worth clinging to. Moreover, even if you don't use them in the future, you can still sell them to others."

"If you can't find a buyer, you can come to our Ruyi Hall. We can buy them back at a ten percent discount."

Chu Ming naturally knew that the refined male cultivator was trying to sell him something, but he couldn't help but admit that he actually wanted all the items he was promoting.

The Bone Strengthening Pills were self-explanatory, and he happened to need them. Plus, they were quite cheap.

The Essence Restoring Pill and the Teleportation Talisman could both be used to save his life, especially since he would be going to Heavenly Origin City to sell seeds in nine days.

If he encountered a Rogue Cultivator on the way, having a Teleportation Talisman would allow him to easily escape. If he accidentally got injured, he could take an Essence Restoring Pill to prolong his life.

One hundred and twenty spirit stones were acceptable. He considered it as buying insurance for his future tens of thousands of spirit stones and his own life.

After careful consideration, he asked for five more bottles of Bone Strengthening Pills, one Middle Grade Essence Restoring Pill, and one High Grade Teleportation Talisman.

In total, he spent 195 spirit stones, but the remaining 45 spirit stones would be enough for his expenses during this period.
