My path to immortality began with my posting to guard Dawancun.

Chapter 326 Team Invitation

"I never imagined that in my past life I would have toiled and run around for a few taels of silver."

"Now that I've transmigrated to a world of cultivation, I still have to worry about spirit stones."

Looking at his empty purse,

Shen Changchuan couldn't help but sigh, a bitter look appearing on his face.

no way,
The real problem was that he didn't have a good solution for the source of the large amount of spirit stones needed for cultivation.

For cultivators, spirit stones are like money to ordinary people.

Spirit stones are even more precious than money!
After all, money can't be eaten, but spirit stones can be truly 'eaten'.

In their previous lives, they could earn money by working as beasts of burden.

However, obtaining spirit stones in this world is not so simple.

To know,
Shen Zhengming, the Nascent Soul stage elder from the Shen family who came to intercept and kill him back then.

After settling accounts, the patriarch confiscated all of his family's wealth but only managed to find 70,000 spirit stones.

It's not that anyone was corrupt or that the ancestors embezzled a portion of it.

The ancestor wasn't short of spirit stones.
But because,

The total wealth of someone at the Nascent Soul stage is actually only so much!
Cultivators at this level have an enormous need for spirit stones!
Treasures, elixirs, talismans, and so on—none of them can be obtained without spending a large amount of spirit stones.

The amount of spirit stones required is extremely large.
in contrast,

I want to obtain spirit stones.

However, it was extremely difficult.

Most cultivators can only acquire these treasures by cultivating spiritual fields, slaying demonic beasts in the wild, or exploring deep into demonic forests to find rare and precious materials to sell or trade.

Alternatively, they could become protectors or engage in piracy.

Just these two things,
This was clearly unrealistic for Shen Changchuan.

"Fortunately, I have the progress bar panel, which allows me to grind the second-tier spell to perfection without relying on the power of the treasure, saving me a lot of spirit stones."

"Otherwise, like other cultivators, they would have to prepare to buy a magic weapon as soon as they advance to the Nascent Soul stage, and then they probably wouldn't even have a chance to use spirit stones for cultivation."

Shen Changchuan shook his head slightly.

Besides precious artifacts

Another major expense is the elixirs needed for cultivation.

To know,
Even a single pill used by a cultivator in the late stage of the Qi Refining Realm costs several hundred spirit stones.
It is easy to imagine how precious the elixirs that cultivators at the Nascent Soul stage can use are!

Such huge expenses

All sorts of things added together,
This also means that cultivators at the Nascent Soul stage generally don't keep many spirit stones on hand.

Not to mention that every spirit stone must be carefully calculated.

But none of that should be wasted.

If Shen Changchuan were to directly use spirit stones to cultivate and restore his internal mana,
If anyone else had seen it,
They'd probably all call him a spendthrift!

"Trouble!"

"Although I still have the source of income from spirit stones in Dawan Village."

"Furthermore, with the stabilization of the situation in recent days, and because Dawan Village is located on the main route to the Longxiao Sect, it has made great progress and has been able to obtain spirit stones continuously through the establishment of markets, the rental of shops, and the collection of management fees from stalls."

"But that's just a gradual process, not enough for my own cultivation. It can only be considered a way to fill the gap."

Shen Changchuan thought to himself.

You should know that when returning to the sect from Tiannan City,
The tens of thousands of spirit stones he took from Dawan Village when he passed through it were accumulated by the village over several years!
However, even these spirit stones, which represent a huge sum of money for ordinary Qi Refining cultivators, are still a considerable amount.

However, this was during Shen Changchuan's practice of second-tier spells.
It was completely used up in less than two months!
They can't hold out for long!
"Spirit stones. Trouble."

"Am I supposed to give up this shortcut to improving my strength?"

"No, that's impossible!" Shen Changchuan shook his head repeatedly.
Get rid of the thoughts in your mind.

Cultivation is achieved through repeated cycles of depleting and replenishing one's mana.
It's not just about accelerating cultivation speed.

It can also solidify the foundation of cultivators and stabilize their cultivation realm.

This will prevent the foundation from becoming unstable when making breakthroughs in the future.

In conjunction with the progress bar panel,
This cultivation method is a shortcut that kills three birds with one stone for Shen Changchuan!

This is also the foundation for his rapid improvement in cultivation.

Abandon this method of cultivation.

How can it be? !
but,

This cultivation method consumes so many spirit stones that it definitely needs to find a stable source of income to continue.

"Perhaps I should collect and pass down some knowledge of the various arts of cultivation."

After thinking for a moment,
Shen Changchuan focused his attention on the basic alchemy technique on the progress bar panel.

Speaking of,
When he first obtained this basic alchemy technique from Nangong Cheng, he had planned to cultivate it to perfection and then use it to earn spirit stones.

Later, he did indeed rely on the progress bar panel to cultivate it to perfection and mastered some basic pill refining techniques.

But afterwards,

He was basically working hard to advance to the Nascent Soul realm, and since he had a lot of spoils at that time, he wasn't short of spirit stones for the time being.

So there wasn't much time to do those things.
nowadays,
It seems I can pick up that skill again.

Shen Changchuan stroked his chin.

I thought to myself.

"Speaking of which, since the establishment of the Longxiao Sect, many more family branches or other cultivation forces have migrated to the remote forests."

"The previous disturbance brought in a large influx of cultivators from outside the region, which also laid a certain foundation for this."

"Those who moved here either wanted a stable environment under the suppression of the Longxiao Sect, or they wanted to take advantage of the proximity to join the Longxiao Sect."

"The development of Dawan Village has also benefited from this wave of 'immigrants'."

"If I could refine some low-grade pills, I should be able to make some money."

Shen Changchuan fell into deep thought.

Although at present, he can only refine a few kinds of pills that can be used by cultivators in the early and middle stages of the Qi Refining Realm.

But the lower-tier market...

The space is still quite vast.

Moreover, many cultivation forces that have relocated to the remote forests are now aiming to become disciples of the Dragon Sky Sect.

If you want your descendants to join the Dragon Sky Sect, you should at least buy some pills to give them a head start, right?

The more Shen Changchuan thought about it, the more sense it made.

And Dawan Village,

Perhaps it can become my own sales platform.

quickly,

He already had a general plan in mind.

But before he could move forward...

Someone came to the door.

After learning during a casual chat that he was free for the time being, I sent him a team invitation.
