Martial Arts and Longevity: Starting from the Spiritual Beast Picture

"A female cultivator in the Purple Mansion Realm?"

Zhao Lin shook his head as he watched. He didn't believe such a good thing happened, and not to mention it was fake, even if it was true, this kind of Taoist couple with a huge difference in cultivation could not get along with each other.

In the world of cultivating immortals, there is a joint cultivation method, which is very beneficial for breaking through the realm, but the premise is that the two parties are at the same level of cultivation, crossing the realm, and even crossing two realms, no matter how good the cultivation method is, it will be of little use.

Although he didn't take this notice of recruiting relatives seriously, it evoked long-lost thoughts.

Since time travelling, I have never thought of getting married, but now that the avenue of longevity has been revealed, I can think about it.

The road is long, and it is better to be accompanied by a Taoist companion than to be alone. It is too lonely to practice alone.

However, marriage in the world of cultivating immortals also pays attention to matching families. The talents and aptitudes of the two parties should not be too different. Otherwise, one party will break through the realm early, while the other will stagnate, and it will not last long.

"Who among you is going to apply? You can go now!"

Zhou Hongfang and the two elders had been silent for a while, when the former suddenly asked.

The disciples immediately fell silent and hurriedly followed. The senior brother surnamed Wang reluctantly glanced at the notice before leaving.

Shangyuan County is located in the northern border of Xiniu State, at the intersection of the three states. It has a superior geographical location, and monks who pass by often stop in Fangshi.

In addition to the disciples of the Chenghua Sect, there are also many monks from the Outer Sect and some casual cultivators who come and go here.

In the square market, there are not only pills, magic treasures, talismans, classics and other items traded, but also an auction house where valuables are auctioned on the fifth day of every month. Restaurants, inns and other places that are convenient for monks to eat, drink and stay are also available.

The disciples looked around as they walked, their eyes full of curiosity.

Zhao Lin felt that the square market had many similarities with the bazaar in his previous life, except that the items sold were all related to cultivation.

"Rest at this inn tonight."

Zhou Hongfang brought everyone to an inn called Manyuezhu, turned around and said.

"You can stroll around for a while, but you must come back before lighting the lamps."

"Yes, Headmaster!"

Of course the disciples didn't want to rest early, so they wandered around the market together before it was dark.

"This area is full of inns and restaurants. Let's go to the East District. It's very lively there."

Dong Lingcheng walked along the street with Zhao Lin, Li Sancai, Tong Mu and Zhu Cong, introducing shops and various items for sale to several people from time to time.

He didn't plan to buy anything, mainly because he wanted Zhao Lin and the others to gain insight.

The five people were a group when they killed katydids in Jueming Mountain last time, and they were relatively close, so they got together this time.

"Brother Dong has been here before, right?"

Seeing that Dong Lingcheng was familiar with the road, Zhao Lin couldn't help asking.

"I've been here a few times. The jade slips and low-grade talismans here are very famous. I bought some."

Dong Lingcheng said, "The rest of the things are still cheaper to buy in the county."

"Senior Brother Dong, what are spirit coins?"

Zhu Cong suddenly pointed to the notice in front of a shop and asked.

Everyone turned their heads to look, only to see the notice read: "A low-grade Qingxin talisman, a five-yuan spirit coin."

"Spirit coins are the coins of the world of cultivating immortals. They can be used as spirit stones. You come from the mortal world, so you should be able to understand."

Dong Lingcheng explained, taking out a few silver coins from his pocket as he spoke.

Zhao Lin knew that such things as spirit coins existed, but this was the first time he had seen them, so he wanted one to hold in his hand to play with.

The spirit coin is about one inch in diameter, slightly larger than a copper coin, with a "five" character engraved on the front, and the name of Cheng Huazong's sect and the year of refining on the bottom.

On the back is engraved a peony-shaped, complex and exquisite Dao pattern, which is the emblem of Chenghuazong.

The so-called dao pattern is a kind of miniature formation pattern, which is the imprint specially cast on it when refining spirit coins.

Spirit coins can be forged, but Dao patterns cannot be forged. As long as a monk injects a little spiritual power, a corresponding imprint will be produced in the sea of ​​consciousness, and the authenticity can be known by just trying it.

Lingshi is a common currency, but it has two disadvantages.It is precisely because of these two disadvantages that Lingbi appeared.

First of all, the size and weight of spirit stones are not small. A spirit stone weighs a few catties, and a spirit stone of 30 yuan weighs more than one hundred catties. Carrying a large number of spirit stones is a great burden for monks.

Furthermore, there are some items in the world of cultivating immortals whose price is less than one spirit stone. If you trade spirit stones, there are often situations where you cannot "get change".

Lingbi solves these two problems very well, it is light and easy to carry, and the price of the currency ranges from one, two, five... all the way to one hundred.

Cheng Huazong issued a large number of spirit coins, the value of which was linked to spirit stones, and the exchange ratio between spirit coins and spirit stones was ten to one.

The unit of spirit stone is block, and the unit of spirit coin is "yuan".

To make an analogy, the relationship between spirit stones and spirit coins is equivalent to gold and silver tickets in the world, which can be understood as "spirit stone standard".

Zhao Lin learned from the book that Cheng Huazong's spiritual coins have always been relatively stable, and only had a large-scale overissue during the Great War thousands of years ago.

At that time, although it was mandatory to exchange ten yuan Lingbi for one Lingshi, it was impossible to exchange it at all. When Lingshi was most nervous, it needed more than 300 Lingbi to exchange, and the currency system almost collapsed.

After the war, the spirit coin slowly recovered. So far, it has been relatively stable. Not only is it circulated within the sect, but many surrounding sects also recognize it as Huazong's spirit coin.

Zhao Lin listened and watched, remembering the prices of various items in his heart, maybe it will be useful in the future.

The five of them wandered around until it was getting late before returning to the inn to rest.

The conditions of the inn are quite average, four people live in one room.

Zhao Lin inquired with the clerk, and they lived in a common room, and the price for one night was 30 yuan in spirit coins.

Ordinary rooms do not introduce spiritual energy, and the effect of cultivation is mediocre, while superior rooms are rich in spiritual energy, but the price is more than one hundred yuan spiritual coins.

After resting for one night, just after dawn, the Lingdaoyuan and his party left Fangshi, boarded the spirit boat and set off again.

Fly for half a day and enter the border of Juyan State.

Zhou Hongfang took out a magic talisman from his bosom, injected a stream of spiritual power into it, and the magic talisman immediately turned into a stream of light, flew forward with a "swish", and disappeared in the clouds.

About half an hour later, the spirit boat drove into a lush vegetation, gradually slowed down, and finally stopped in front of a misty valley.

"Dongyang County is here!"

Zhao Lin stepped off the spirit boat, and immediately felt a burst of warm air rushing towards his face. The temperature was at least five degrees higher than that of Hanchi County, as if from spring to early summer.

The world of cultivating immortals is different from the small world of mortals. In most places, there are no four seasons, and the climate is always the same throughout the year.

"Zhou Zhangyuan, Elder Nie, Elder Wu, we meet again!"

An old man with black hair and a face like gold paper was already waiting in front of the valley, accompanied by two middle-aged monks.

"It turned out to be Elder Liao. I haven't seen you for a year, but I still look good!"

The three of Zhou Hongfang also responded politely. (end of this chapter)
