Chapter 96: Baicao Jing

Sitting on the beast, Li Lingyu took out a plain and elegant light green porcelain bottle, picked up the black plaster with his fingers and applied it to the injured areas on his arms and legs.

The strong smell of medicine spread in the wind. After applying it once, she handed the porcelain bottle over:
"Muscles burned by fire energy won't heal easily. Apply some medicine."

Ji An controlled the gray-feathered sand goose to move over, took the ointment and applied it on himself. He immediately felt a cool feeling spreading, and the burning pain was much reduced.

"Thank you, Senior Sister. This medicine is much better than what I prepared."

Ji An thanked him, and they both took out a spirit stone and held it in their hands, absorbing the spiritual energy from it.

Although they mainly use talismans to fight, their own magic power is still very great.

After flying more than ten miles away from the battle site, the two landed in a forest.

"Senior Sister, I'll be on guard first, you continue to recover your mana."

Ji An said as he released the spirit-seeking rat.

Because of the stone turtle's devouring, his magic power was only 30% at this time, and the magic power in his body was less than 70% or 80%, and he felt insecure.

"Thank you, Junior Brother," Li Lingyu said without hesitation. After swallowing a pill, he sat down cross-legged and began to practice his skills to refine it.

After the two took turns on guard to recover their magic power, they took off again on the beast and arrived at the next market before the sunset fell behind the mountains.

After this side-by-side battle, the trust between them has deepened.

If either of them faced the Foundation Establishment Stage cultivator alone, they would be defeated. It could be said that they had a life-and-death friendship.

They rented two rooms in an inn in Fangshi, and the two gathered together to take stock of their gains and losses.

Ji An handed over the storage bag:
"Senior Sister, you come and erase the spiritual mark on it. I will count how many talismans I used."

"Ok."

Li Lingyu's eyes lit up with a crystal light. She placed the remaining twenty or so talismans on the table, took the storage bag and began to use her spiritual sense to erase the mark.

The storage bag is not an exclusive space for cultivators. It can be opened as long as the spiritual mark of the original owner is erased, which can also be regarded as training of spiritual consciousness.

After counting the number of remaining talismans, Ji An shook his head slightly. Nearly eight hundred talismans were thrown out in this battle, which was equivalent to hitting people with spirit stones.

He picked up the yellow flag magic weapon and smiled knowingly. This magic weapon was actually a top-grade magic weapon and was more useful than the stone turtle shield.

I thought I had lost everything, but in the end I actually killed a cultivator in the Foundation Establishment Stage, and all my losses were made up. Of course, it was very satisfying.

After Li Lingyu erased the last trace of the mark on the storage bag, he probed his spiritual sense into it, took out all the things inside and placed them on the table.

She picked up the jade slips inside and placed them on her forehead one by one, and said with some dissatisfaction:

"A flying boat, several magic weapon blanks, and some ores and metal materials. I'm not familiar with the materials used to refine weapons, so I don't know their value.

The jade slip contains a second-level weapon refining inheritance and experience, which is different from what I expected."

Ji An alone spent a lot of spirit stones in the Jie Xiu shop. She originally thought that she could get at least one or two hundred spirit stones, but in the end there was not a single spirit stone in her storage bag.

The Jinling Sect's weapon refining skills are well-known, and things like weapon refining inheritance are very useless to them, and are even less useful than weapon refining experience.

After saying that, she handed over the storage bag.

Ji An took the storage bag, put his spiritual sense into it, took a look, and said with a smile:

“The space inside is not small, so it’s not bad to sell it for seventy or eighty spirit stones.

"Return to the sect and have a trusted refiner evaluate the magical artifact embryos and ores. If they can be carried by a Foundation Establishment cultivator, they must be worth a lot of money."

He took out a blank jade slip and copied the weapon refining inheritance, then said:
"After all, the other party is not a real desperado, so how could he take all his wealth with him when robbing?

I just hope that the sect can gain enough benefits from the Qingzhu Mountain Market based on our report, so that we can also share a piece of the pie."

Li Lingyu put the inheritance jade slip into his storage bag and took out the seized flying sword magic weapon:
"What should we do with these two top-grade magical instruments? Do you want them?"

Ji An shook his head. He was in urgent need of spirit stones, so he wanted to exchange them for the Foundation Establishment Pill first before discussing other things.

"Sell them all for spirit stones. If you want, you can convert them into spirit stones for me."

"The original magic weapon is damaged. That defensive magic weapon will be useful after I build my foundation. I want it."

Ji An thought for a moment and said:
"My Stone Turtle Shield is also damaged. How about this? After returning to the sect, we can find a weapon refiner to assess the value of everything and sell off everything we don't need.

After repairing your damaged instruments and replenishing my consumed talismans, we can split the remaining spirit stones equally. What do you think, Senior Sister?"

Brothers should settle accounts clearly. It is better to settle some things clearly.

"Junior brother, what you said is exactly what I want."

It was three days later when Ji An and the other arrived at Qingyun Fairy City along the original route. The next day they would just catch the sect's flying boat transporting goods back to the sect.

Controlling the beast to land on the platform, the two presented their respective sect jade cards and entered the fairy city for free.

Li Lingyu sighed lightly and said in a muffled voice:

"I don't know how many other disciples know the news, so let's go directly to the weapon refining shop."

“No matter how many people know about it, it’s impossible to buy out all the goods in Xiancheng.

Senior Sister, I'll lend you some spirit stones later."

Ji An said that since the other party had accompanied him all the way, he had to show some appreciation.

Li Lingyu glanced over, her beautiful eyes smiling:

"Junior brother, you are so generous. I won't be polite." Ji An lent the other party two medium-grade spirit stones, and the two went to the weapon refining shop area together.

They automatically skipped over the sect's shops and began their shopping trip.

After visiting nearly a hundred shops, Ji An finally spent all the spirit stones he had, leaving enough for the inn and the flying boat for tomorrow.

Although he slightly raised the purchase price, the shops would not trade too many Five Elements spiritual objects to him. After all, they were all normally operating shops and needed to reserve some for refining equipment.

"Sister, please go to Yingxianju and book two rooms. It's cheaper there. I'm going to give the remaining talismans to the cooperating shops."

Ji An handed the spirit stone to his senior sister, who took it and said goodbye and left.

He shook his head slightly and walked quickly towards the talisman area. Today he needed to explain things to the cooperating stores.

The remaining talismans in his hand are worth at most a hundred spirit stones, and after buying talisman ink and talisman pens, there are only a few spirit stones left.

Half an hour later, Ji An walked out of a shop with a talisman in his hand and looked back at the sign. The five large black characters "Pang's Treasure Talisman Shop" were painted with silver and iron, which had its own style and charm.

He lowered his head slightly, a cold look flashing in his eyes.

He had just taken the spirit stone obtained from the trading talisman and let the spirit-seeking rat sniff it. The beastmaster issued a warning, and a piece of spirit stone was smeared with the same powder as last time.

Do you want to find a broker to find out the background of this store?
Ji An thought about it and gave up the idea.

Brokers usually have cooperative relationships with stores, and rashly inquiring might alert the enemy.

The next day, after returning to the sect on a flying boat, Ji An and the other man rode on the beast and hurried back to Ningcui Cliff to pay their respects to their master together.

After listening to their story, Ge Ying was shocked and angry. Fortunately, they brought a large number of talismans this time, otherwise they would be in great danger.

If these two disciples met with misfortune, she would not only lose her disciples but also twenty mid-grade spirit stones. The sect would also lose two future foundation-building cultivators, not to mention that one of them was an extremely talented spirit farmer.

A cold light flashed in her eyes, and she snorted coldly:
"How audacious of you to rob and kill my disciple.

Tomorrow I will go to the Law Enforcement Hall to meet with Senior Brother Chen and will definitely seek justice for you.

Don't worry, this is a matter of concern to the sect's reputation, and the Law Enforcement Hall will certainly handle it strictly."

In Xizhou, the three sects are the absolute overlords. If a disciple with potential is hunted down, it will inevitably attract the attention of the sect.

"Give me the seized magical instruments and other items that can reveal your identity. They will serve as evidence to prove that the other party is a robber cultivator, so that the sect can negotiate with the Qingzhu Mountain Market."

Li Lingyu reluctantly took out two top-grade magic weapons and handed over several magic jade slips. She took all the spoils of the robbery.

Ge Ying laughed and scolded:
"You're useless. These things will still be yours after this is done.

The enemy is the owner of the weapon refining shop. As long as it is proved that the other party is a robber cultivator, the sect and the market will seal up all the things belonging to that person in the shop.

At that time, you will not only get the bounty for killing the Foundation Establishment Stage Tribulation Cultivator, but also the reward from the sect.

As long as I'm here, you won't lose a single Spirit Stone."

"Thank you, Master," Li Lingyu said sweetly.

"Humph, you two are not allowed to leave the sect before you establish your foundation!

The cultivation of the sect's spiritual veins has reached a critical juncture. Once the news of the mandatory mission is released, we will have to temporarily shrink our forces."

Ge Ying took out a few jade slips, copied them, and threw them to Ji An:

"Here, this is the Herbal Classic compiled by the sect, which introduces various magical herbs and medicines as well as their cultivation methods.

It covers most of the commonly used spiritual plants in the Qi Refining and Foundation Establishment stages. Study it carefully. I will test you in the near future."

"Thank you, Master."

Ji An bowed and said that he understood his master's expectations of him.

He scratched his head and smiled innocently:

"Master, I feel that my vision is limited and I really want to improve. I wonder if you have any knowledge about various spiritual trees."

The inherited skills, techniques and various knowledge are priceless, and free ones are even better.

Ge Ying narrowed her eyes and said:

"You can't chew too much, so first study the Hundred Herbal Classic thoroughly.

There are hundreds of spiritual plants in it, and their medicinal properties are introduced. You must memorize them all, as they will keep you busy studying for a long time."

After leaving the cave, Ji An asked:
"Senior Sister, do you have any familiar weapon refiners?"

It's time to evaluate the spoils. At this stage, it would be more practical to exchange these unused items for spirit stones.

“The few weapon refiners I know are only at the Qi Refining stage, and I’m worried they won’t be able to assess the true value of the weapon blanks and ores.

Junior brother, do you have any recommendations for candidates? The minimum requirement is that they must be a weapon refiner in the Foundation Establishment stage.

If you don’t know him, we’ll have to ask other senior brothers and sisters to help introduce him.”

“I happen to know a weapon refiner in the Foundation Establishment Stage. He and I are from the same Taoist Academy and we have a good relationship.

If Senior Sister trusts me, we will go visit him tomorrow."

Li Lingyu laughed:
"How can I not trust my junior brother? Let's go together tomorrow."
