The Path to Immortality

Although the war for the market had just ended, it should have been a bit bleak. However, due to the influence of the alchemy that was held soon, or the fact that the Xianzhou market was originally more prosperous than this, from the perspective of the flying boat where Fang Ping and his companions were, the number of cultivators entering and leaving Qingming and traveling to the market was as numerous as stars.

Everywhere, cultivators flying by magic tools, escaping lights, or riding spiritual birds could be seen, either in groups of three or five, or alone.

Even the golden elixir cultivators who turned into rainbows and exerted great pressure could be seen occasionally.

"I have heard that the Xianzhou market is extremely prosperous and is the first market in the Dali Dynasty. It is well-known in the entire Tianshui Ten Kingdoms. Seeing it today, it is indeed well-deserved!"

On the flying boat, after a long period of shock, a cultivator finally couldn't help muttering to himself.

Fang Ping, standing with his hands behind his back at the bow of the flying boat, looked at the Xianzhou market. Although he was silent, he felt the same way in his heart.

It seems that this time we have really come to the right place!

………

After a while.

The flying boat of Tianhai Pavilion passed through the formation restriction of Xianzhou Market and slowly stopped in front of the floating dock on the west side of Xianzhou Market.

"Fellow Daoist Liu, see you again!"

Sun Dehai seemed to have failed to recruit a weapon refiner on the flying boat, and got off the flying boat alone. But before leaving, he did not forget to greet Fang Ping enthusiastically.

After watching this person leave, Fang Ping also got off the flying boat and followed the crowd into Xianzhou Market.

At this time, it was already evening.

The mountains under his feet were lush and green, deep and quiet; above him, the night sky was clear and the bright moon was hanging high.

In Xianzhou Market, the jade buildings were hung with countless bright stones and night pearls, which embellished the entire market with flowing light, as if it were daytime.

All kinds of spiritual medicines, spiritual materials, rare treasures, and magical skills can be seen everywhere. Even the foundation-building spiritual objects that cultivators in Yunzhou need to fight for with their lives can be seen occasionally.

Walking in it, people feel like falling into a dreamland, and they don't want to wake up for a long time.

However, no matter how beautiful the scenery is, after seeing it more, they will gradually get used to it.

After the initial shock, Fang Ping's heart has calmed down.

When wandering in Xianzhou Market, the focus of attention is no longer the fairyland here, but the customs and customs of Xianzhou Market, various cultivation resources and the prices of elixirs and spiritual materials.

After all, alchemy is the foundation of his life.

The result made Fang Ping quite relieved.

Thanks to the abundant spiritual energy and abundant cultivation resources, many spiritual medicines and spiritual materials that are quite rare in Yunzhou can be seen everywhere in Xianzhou Market.

Even elixirs such as Shengyuan Pills that are hard to find are also sold in some large alchemy shops in Xianzhou Market.

However, although the supply has increased, the demand for various elixirs has also increased due to the increase in the overall number and strength of cultivators.

Except for the elixirs in the Qi training period, which are really not sold at a high price, the income from the first-level elixir is still very amazing, not worse than Yunzhou!

Not only the elixir, but also other talismans and instruments are probably in the same situation.

For Fang Ping, this is undoubtedly good news.

Because the Xianzhou Market is too big, Fang Ping, who has just arrived, has only visited a small part of the market even if he has been strolling for half a night.

"The most urgent thing is to find a place to stay first."

Fang Ping, who decided to stop at a glance, drove the escape light into the sky, flew over dozens of large flying boats and golden bridges, and landed on a [Tianque Boat] that was high above other flying boats in the market.

This is a place that is uniformly managed by the Xianzhou Market and provides rental caves for foreign cultivators.

No matter from any other flying boat, you can see it at a glance.

Due to the Immortal Cultivation Hundred Arts Appreciation Conference, the number of cultivators arriving at the Immortal Boat Market has increased significantly recently, and this huge boat, which is about hundreds of feet long, has also seen a lot of people coming in and out.

Foundation-building cultivators are not so bad, they have some privileges and have special entrances and exits.

If it is a Qi-cultivating cultivator, the treatment is a bit miserable. Even if you wait here for half a day, you may not be able to get a seat.

Even so, Fang Ping waited for a cup of tea before entering the first floor of the main hall of the Tianque Boat.

As soon as he came in, he saw nine stone tables specially for receiving foundation-building cultivators.

At this moment, except for the stone table on his left, there were cultivators in front of the other stone tables.

But their expressions were very different. Some were calm, some looked embarrassed, and some looked unbelievable, arguing with the cultivators who were receiving them behind the stone table. It was enough to see the various states of sentient beings.

Fang Ping only glanced at it briefly, then retracted his gaze and came to the only vacant stone table.

"What procedures does this senior need to go through? Is it a temporary stay or a long-term lease?"

The green-shirted monk in charge of reception, although only in the late stage of Qi training, probably has seen too many foundation-building monks. Although his attitude is enthusiastic, he is not as cautious and respectful as the Qi training monks on Yunzhou Island.

Fang Ping sat on the stone chair and said, "Can you give me a detailed introduction?"

The green-shirted monk who received him patiently introduced, "If the senior comes for this alchemy meeting and stays in Xianzhou Market for no more than 100 days, you can go through the temporary stay procedures. If it exceeds 100 days but less than 10 years, you can choose to rent it for a long time. If it exceeds 10 years and the financial resources allow, I suggest that the senior choose to settle down permanently."

Fang Ping thought for a while and said, "How much does it cost to rent it for a long time?"

The green-shirted monk replied, "It depends on what grade of house you rent! A house on a low-grade flying boat costs 200 spirit stones per year; a house on a medium-grade flying boat costs 500 spirit stones per year; a house on a high-grade flying boat costs 1,000 spirit stones per year. The higher the grade, the larger the area of ​​the house, and the higher the concentration of spiritual energy."

A high-grade house costs 1,000 spirit stones per year?

Fang Ping was a little surprised, not because he thought it was expensive, but quite the opposite.

For a foundation-building monk, this fee is naturally very high. But there is no shortage of Jindan monks staying in the Xianzhou market!

"Are there only these three types?" Fang Ping asked.

The green-shirted monk was slightly startled and explained: "That's not the case. In addition to this third-class house, there are two more."

"One is located on the bottom floor of the flying boat cabin, which is always dark. It is for those poor lower-level Qi-cultivating monks to live temporarily. Multiple monks are allowed to rent a small courtyard together. However, the concentration of spiritual energy, comfort level, and quietness are..."

"As for the last type, it is a cave man-made on the giant boat that is more luxurious than the upper-class house."

"The number of these caves is extremely limited, and the cost is also very high, but the concentration of spiritual energy is comparable to that of the third-level spiritual veins. Ordinary monks cannot rent them even if they have spiritual stones. They must be Jindan seniors, alchemists who have mastered the second-level cultivation arts, weapon refiners, etc., or monks who have obtained special permission from the Xianzhou Market to rent them."

"I see..."

Fang Ping nodded slightly, indicating that he understood.

With his financial resources, renting a third-level cave is naturally not a problem, but the hard conditions are not met.

It seems that I should rent a house on a high-quality flying boat and stay there for the time being.
