Immortality and cultivation begin with full comprehension.

Chapter 32 Top-Grade Magical Artifact (Seeking further reading, monthly tickets, and recommendation votes)
As for the blue-robed female disciple who had been soliciting customers, she ignored Li Yunjing.

The person soliciting customers had to be beautiful, but the person serving the miscellaneous disciples inside was just any part-time disciple who could be found to guide Li Yunjing to spend money.

In addition to commissions, working part-time at "Yueminglou" also earns you two spirit stones every month.

It's fair to say that having a side job as a servant disciple in a shop is an absolutely cushy job.

Li Yunjing first glanced around the first-floor lobby.

This floor has a rectangular layout, with counters arranged neatly from the inside out.

There were also markings on the counter, some saying "elixirs," others "talismans"...

The items are neatly categorized, so even first-time visitors can easily find the counter where they want to buy something.

Each counter was looked after by a servant disciple.

Clearly, Yueming Tower employed many menial disciples.

On the first floor, there were not many customers in the shop, only four or five disciples from various sects.

They were all outer disciples.

There wasn't a single disciple like Li Yunjing who performed menial tasks.

"Top-grade magic artifacts! And effective pills that suit my needs!"

Looking around, Li Yunjing got straight to the point and spoke.

"hiss……"

The servant disciple was startled, then his face lit up with joy.

It seems this handyman disciple is very wealthy; if he makes a purchase, his commission will be substantial.

Such menial disciples are rare, though not nonexistent.

After all, some of the menial disciples had mingled among independent cultivators before entering the sect, and thus had some wealth.

Even the outer disciples who were selecting items couldn't help but turn to look at Li Yunjing.

It seemed as if they wanted to deeply imprint his image in their minds.

"Senior brother, please follow me to the second floor. All the top-grade magic artifacts are stored on the second floor!"

The gray-robed attendant led Li Yunjing upstairs, explaining, "Top-grade magic artifacts are extremely valuable, and it's not something I can decide on my own. There are other people upstairs to entertain you, senior brother."

Even so, he still received his share of the benefits.

The furnishings upstairs are quite different from those on the first floor.

If the first floor is a shopping mall, then the second floor is a boutique.

Not only is the area much smaller, but there are also many more empty spaces.

These spaces are not being used to display items.

Instead, there are now tea rooms, living rooms, and meeting rooms, furnished with antique-style tables and chairs.

Clearly, those doing business on this floor are considered VIPs.

"Yueminglou" should not only provide transaction services, but also offer some corresponding additional services to increase the goodwill of its distinguished guests.

This will turn customers into valued repeat customers.

"Tsk tsk...you do have some business acumen."

Li Yunjing muttered to himself.

"Senior Brother Wang, this senior brother is here to buy top-grade magic artifacts and top-quality pills suitable for his use."

The handyman disciple who led Li Yunjing upstairs immediately handed him over to an outer disciple on that floor.

"Alright! Leave things here to me, you can go now!"

The outer disciple surnamed Wang nodded and gave an instruction with a smile.

The handyman disciple greeted Li Yunjing, then went down the stairs and returned to the first floor. "Hahaha! Junior brother, please have a seat!"

The outer disciple surnamed Wang was overjoyed, never expecting such a big client to arrive.

As for the servant's robe that Li Yunjing wore, it was not discriminated against by Senior Brother Wang.

These days, no matter how impressive your status is, is it as impressive as having spirit stones and contribution points?

As long as you can afford it, you're treated like royalty, whether you're a menial disciple or just an ordinary person!
Instead of taking Li Yunjing to see the artifact, they first invited him into the reception room.

"This quaint and charming house is really nice!"

Li Yunjing admired it for a while and secretly nodded in approval.

In the reception room, Li Yunjing and Senior Brother Wang sat down at a wooden table, with a three-legged incense burner standing in the corner of the room.

Inside the incense burner, a bundle of incense was slowly burning. Amidst the blue smoke, there was a special fragrance that invigorated anyone who smelled it.

Senior Brother Wang personally poured tea for Li Yunjing. The tea was fragrant and was clearly a top-quality spiritual tea.

With everything ready, Senior Brother Wang smiled and said, "I am Wang Weizhi from Qixia Peak. Junior Brother, how should I address you? Which peak are you from?"

"So you're a senior brother from Qixia Peak! What background do I have? I'm just a lowly disciple from Qiongze Peak. My name is Li Yunjing!"

Li Yunjing chuckled, making no attempt to conceal his origins.

There were as many as 30,000 disciples like him in the Shenxiao Dao Sect.

It's not a big deal to reveal such a small amount of wealth.

Moreover, it is absolutely impossible for murder and robbery to occur within a sect.

This is the sect's bottom line!
As long as Li Yunjing doesn't leave the house, no one can do anything about him.

Of course, this only applies to outer disciples and miscellaneous disciples. Those in higher positions can still find ways to circumvent the rules, as sect rules are not set in stone.

"Hahaha! Junior Brother Li is too modest. At your current cultivation level, you are already able to purchase top-grade magic artifacts, which shows your strength. Sooner or later, you will be able to advance to an inner disciple. Perhaps next time we meet, I will have to call you Senior Brother Li."

Wang Weizhi continued to flatter him.

He didn't know that those words would come true so soon after.

"Haha! Senior Brother Wang, you're too kind!"

Li Yunjing drank a cup of spiritual tea before praising, "Excellent tea!"

"If Junior Brother Li likes it, I'll give you two ounces of tea when I leave!"

Wang Weizhi said magnanimously.

These words greatly increased Li Yunjing's goodwill towards him.

These days, people who are sweet-talking are popular.

Since that's the case, Li Yunjing stopped beating around the bush and said with a smile, "Senior brother, let's get back to the point. I didn't know you didn't have any top-grade defensive magic artifacts here, but you also have some special magic artifacts. Of course, I'd also like some pills that are suitable for me."

“Good! Junior Brother Li speaks his mind! Currently, this building only has nine top-grade magic artifacts for sale, most of which are offensive magic artifacts. The ones suitable for Junior Brother to use are a ‘Mysterious Jade Inner Armor’ and a pair of ‘Swift Wind Boots’.”

Upon hearing Li Yunjing's words, Wang Weizhi was overjoyed again, for defensive and special magical artifacts were far more expensive than offensive ones!
This junior apprentice who does odd jobs is really rich!
"Oh? Not bad! Senior brother, why don't you take a look?"

Li Yunjing's eyes lit up. These two treasures are wonderful!
These are exactly what he needs!

One piece for defense, one for getting around – these are absolutely fantastic items!
"Hahaha! Alright! Junior brother, wait a moment, I'll be right back!"

Wang Weizhi laughed loudly, stood up, and left the reception room.

Not long after, the outer disciple returned carrying two wooden boxes.

"Snapped!"

Wang Weizhi placed the two wooden boxes on the wooden table and opened them one by one.

Li Yunjing looked down and saw a jade-colored vest lying flat in one of the wooden boxes. The vest was large enough to protect the torso.
