Seeking Immortality In The Cultivation World

Lin Xiu, who was about to go out, hadn't figured it out yet. He had originally planned to pay the rent right away.

But this cool-looking person returned to his own courtyard after only seeing each other once, and there was actually a second protective formation inside.

Unlike the first one, which was public and could be ignored, the significance of this second one was different.

Without the owner's permission, randomly striking this protective formation would be seen as a provocation, and he didn't want to invite trouble.

Let's talk about it later!

The stone path in front of the courtyard was much better than the gravel path before.

A branch of the winding river was brought into the city center, with willows hanging on both sides and small fish swimming.

It was only one street away from the city center, less than a kilometer away, and the air was refreshing.

Lin Xiu held Li Yingxue's hand and strolled through the streets, watching the patrol teams passing by from time to time, feeling a sense of security mixed with happiness.

As for Qin Yawen, unfortunately, she didn't come.

She wasn't feeling well and hadn't gotten out of bed yet.

However, as soon as he stepped into those main streets, this sense of security suddenly diminished a lot.

There were many strangers on the street.

With over ten thousand people in the city, he naturally didn't recognize most of them, but he could sense the temperament of these people in the city.

These strangers had completely different temperaments from the people in the city, and their attire was also different.

The major sects of Da Zhou had finally started to appear in the city.

Lin Xiu really wanted to turn around and go back, but when he saw Li Yingxue's excited and expectant look, he compromised.

Since they got married, Li Yingxue had basically stayed at home and rarely went out, living the life of a proper young lady.

Everyone, including Li Yingxue herself, thought it was only natural.

But Lin Xiu came from another world. Although his previous temperament had long been worn away, he still felt guilty about it subconsciously.

Aren't there patrol teams?

The strong dragon shouldn't suppress the local snake!

Thinking of this, he held his wife's hand tightly and disappeared into the crowd.

Walking between the shops and stalls along the street, Li Yingxue leaned closely to Lin Xiu's side. Whenever she saw something she liked and could be used at home, she would point at it with her finger.

And Lin Xiu would stride forward,

Buy it!

In no time, his storage bag was full.

Lin Xiu thought for a moment and led her straight to the "Treasure Pavilion".

After entering, he found that the big-eyed female cultivator from before was gone, replaced by another good-looking female cultivator.

For some reason, he felt a slight disappointment in his heart, but quickly dismissed it.

"Fellow Daoist, what do you need?"

"How much does a medium-grade storage bag cost?"

The female cultivator looked at Li Yingxue, who was tightly holding Lin Xiu's hand, with a hint of surprise in her eyes.

A mortal?

And they're so affectionate?

But she still replied, "There are two types of medium-grade storage bags. One is in the form of a bag, which costs ten medium-grade spirit stones, and the other is in the form of a bracelet, which costs thirty medium-grade spirit stones."

Lin Xiu understood the reason for the huge price difference between the two.

That was because using a storage bag required a specific method to open it and retrieve items.

On the other hand, bracelets or even higher-level ring-type storage treasures didn't require this method. As long as one's spiritual consciousness moved, the items would appear directly in their hand.

This seemed like just an extra method, but it could give a decisive advantage in life-and-death battles.

"I'll take the bag-style one!"

His fighting skills had long been rusty and useless, and it was basically pointless to have that extra bit of time. When encountering cultivators who had fought for their lives in the wilderness, he would be at a disadvantage. Why waste the money?

The female cultivator didn't look down on him either. After the transaction was completed, she asked, "Is there anything else I can assist you with?"

Lin Xiu thought for a moment,

"Do you have any defensive clothes or dresses that don't require spiritual power to use? Also, bring me a medium-grade robe, also for women."

The female cultivator glanced at Li Yingxue and showed a hint of admiration in her eyes,

"We have them all!"

As she spoke, they each took out several sets for Lin Xiu and Li Yingxue to choose from.

In the end, Li Yingxue chose a light yellow garment made from the feathers of a first-grade demonic beast, the Yellow Feather Crane. Lin Xiu picked a robe of the same material for Qin Yawen.

It cost a total of sixty medium-grade spirit stones.

A little expensive,

but worth the money!

Although their top priority now was to make money, Lin Xiu also understood that saving money alone wouldn't make them wealthy. Besides, the safety of his wives should come before buying boat tickets.

The number of disciples from the major sects in Dazhou on the street continued to increase, and their behavior varied.

Some appeared refined and always wore a smile on their faces as they asked about prices in a soft voice.

Then, after learning the price, they would leave with an incredulous expression.

Others were loud and boisterous, asking about prices like bandits, causing a commotion wherever they went.

Lin Xiu understood that these people probably couldn't accept the high prices in Qianjue Peak. It was like going to luxury stores in a first-tier city with the average salary of a sixth-tier city.

When passing by the "Spring Night Tower," he was surprised to find that Hongjie's "Worry Relief Shop" was gone!

In its place stood a five-story building even more magnificent than the "Spring Night Tower"!

To build such a building within a month, one could imagine the terrifying strength behind it.

The sign hanging at the top read three large characters, "Hehuan Tower"!

Damn, they're being direct!

Just by the name, one could tell what it was. It was one of the five major sects in Dazhou, the Endless Pleasure Sect!

Like the Tianyin Pavilion, it was also a dual cultivation sect.

Were they planning to compete with the Tianyin Pavilion?

At this moment, a canopy had been set up on the second floor, and a dozen women dressed in colorful clothes were dancing gracefully.

Although these women were dressed conservatively and their dances were not seductive, Lin Xiu felt his mouth dry and a stirring desire after just a few glances.

Licking his suddenly dry lips,

"The Heavenly Enchanting Dance of the Endless Pleasure Sect? Impressive, impressive!"

Lin Xiu recited the "Calm Heart Technique" a few times and quickly pulled his wife away.

Li Yingxue was curious, "Husband, they're all beautiful women, why didn't you look?"

Lin Xiu chuckled,

"I'm not looking, I can't look. They're all dangerous fairies!"

Li Yingxue covered her mouth and giggled.

At this time, a group of about a dozen cultivators wearing black robes with a bull's horn and skull symbol on their shoulders came walking from a distance. Led by a Foundation Building cultivator, they treated the street as if it were their backyard, causing chaos.

The independent cultivators on both sides of the street were in a panic, with their stalls being overturned countless times.

"What? The first-grade medium-grade 'Spirit Shield Talisman' actually costs fifteen low-grade spirit stones? Is this robbery?"

A black-robed cultivator shouted angrily at the stall owner while holding a talisman.

Then, he threw down a low-grade spirit stone and took a stack of talismans before leaving.

He looked more like a bandit.

An independent cultivator who was more upright was about to argue, but he was punched and spat blood, falling onto the scattered stalls, his life unknown.

Lin Xiu's eyebrows twitched, and he immediately pulled his wife into an alley,

The notorious "Qianjie Gate" of Dazhou had also appeared!
