Gou Zai Xian Men Dang Void Workshop Master

Consciousness entry and physical entry are two different concepts. The former is at most an information exchange, while the latter has very important practical significance.

For example, to evade pursuit.

If one enters Penglai Heaven when being hunted down or even in dire straits, it is a way to survive in a desperate situation, and even to turn death into life.

Moreover, after buying out a stall, one can freely enter and exit, and if transaction volume increases, this can be used to open up new sources of income.

Taking a deep breath, the cultivator from the Purple Mansion forced himself to calm down and asked his third question, "I would like to know, does Penglai Heaven have a master?"

"Ten thousand low-grade spirit stones." Madam Hong looked at him and chuckled softly. "The second person to ask a question will receive one hundred thousand spirit stones."

"Then let's ask another question," the Purple Mansion Realm cultivator paused slightly, already having an answer in mind, "I'd like to know what things I need to be aware of after buying out the stalls?"

"This information is a bonus after the purchase," Madam Red said calmly. "I can answer it if you give me three thousand spirit stones."

"Never mind then," the Purple Mansion cultivator quickly shook his head, "I still have something to ask..."

"Only three questions can be asked upon first visit to the Treasure Pavilion," Madam Red interrupted him, her gaze sharp. "You can ask one more question."

"I..." The Purple Mansion cultivator's throat was dry, "Could this question be saved?"

"Yes," Madam Red said, looking at him. "Are you sure you want to buy out the stall?"

"Yes!" The Purple Mansion cultivator readily took out 100,000 low-grade spirit stones. For a Purple Mansion cultivator, 100,000 spirit stones was not a lot.

Madam Hong waved her hand, taking away the 100,000 spirit stones and replacing them with a jade token numbered one, which she handed to the Purple Mansion cultivator.

"Transaction successful. Take the jade token to stall number one and bind it directly," Madam Red said. "The jade token contains all the precautions. Remember to leave a consciousness clone behind to help you set up the stall even after you leave the stall, or you can choose to set up the stall automatically. Even if the goods on the stall are sold out, do not close the stall. Just restock."

"I understand." The cultivator carefully accepted the jade token, bowed to her, and then turned and left the stone house.

Just as he stepped out of the stone house, the Qi Refining cultivators also walked over, seemingly having strolled through the market.

The cultivator from the Purple Mansion smiled nonchalantly, not caring at all, and strode forward, the jade token in his hand guiding him to the left side of the plaza.

The closest spot to the entrance is stall number 1, and opposite it is stall number 2. This is an ideal location.

The cultivator from the Purple Mansion Realm, holding the jade token, entered the stall directly, sat down cross-legged, and used his internal magic power to refine the jade token, quickly binding it to the stall.

He found the stall to be magical; this small space could be used to arrange different goods at will, regardless of their size, as if there were some kind of spatial array.

After refining the jade token, relevant information was infused into his mind, allowing him to instantly know how to set up the stall, how to send out a consciousness clone to oversee it, and how to set up the stall automatically.

After digesting the information, the Purple Mansion cultivator waved his hand, and several bottles of pills, several pieces of ore, several jade slips, and several magic artifacts appeared on the stall.

More than thirty items floated on the stall as if there were an empty shelf, and the items on each shelf were about the same size, so there was no congestion at all.

Curious, the cultivator from the Purple Mansion separated his consciousness into a clone, while his main body left the stall and stood in front of it, looking at the goods on the stall.

It feels amazing. Touching the goods reveals their basic information and the price set by the stall owner. You can negotiate or buy them all at once. The stall automatically records the amount of spirit stones traded, and once the transaction amount reaches the target, the stall can even be upgraded and expanded.

Furthermore, a transaction tax is calculated annually, currently at a rate of one per thousand. This means that for every thousand spirit stones traded, one spirit stone must be paid to the market.

This tax rate is not high. At least when cultivators from the Purple Mansion Realm traveled to overseas markets, they knew that the tax rate there was between 0.3% and 0.7%. In some powerful markets, the tax rate was even higher, and 0.1% was perfectly acceptable.

Once the price is set, the stall will automatically open, and customers can buy it outright without any possibility of bargaining. The cultivator from the Purple Mansion Realm fiddled with it for a while before setting it up and then left the stall to go to the square.

As he prepared to continue towards the stone house, another group of people appeared at the entrance to the square, this time more than thirty people.

There were seven people at the Purple Mansion Realm, which made the Purple Mansion cultivator raise an eyebrow. He quickened his pace and entered the stone house, took out his treasures for appraisal, and sold all the magic artifacts he didn't need to the Treasure Appraisal House in exchange for some spirit stones.

He then left Penglai Heaven directly.

……

Qingniu Mountain, bamboo house.

When Chen He woke up from his sleep, he felt full of energy, in high spirits, and in perfect condition.

He got off the bamboo bed, glanced at the jade tablet, and realized that he had actually slept for three days and three nights without having a single dream.

The mental and physical exhaustion from refining the token had long since disappeared, and after his condition was fully restored, he even felt that the magic power in his body had become more active.

Without leaving the bamboo house, he had a thought and directly communicated with his consciousness clone in Penglai Heaven. He knew everything that had happened in the past three days. He raised an eyebrow and disappeared on the spot.

The next instant, he appeared in Penglai Heaven.

This time, only the physical body entered, while the consciousness clone remained above the clouds of Penglai Heaven, so no one could detect it, not even a Purple Mansion cultivator.

In three days, all seventy-two stalls were sold, with the first ten stalls being bought out and bound by cultivators from the Purple Mansion realm.

The twenty-four stalls in the middle were bought out by Qi Refining cultivators, while the remaining thirty-six stalls were rented by Qi Refining cultivators and Purple Mansion cultivators, and were not bought out.

The rented stall cannot be permanently bound and cannot be physically entered, but the time spent in Penglai Heaven is extended, and during the rental period, the consciousness can freely enter and exit Penglai Heaven.

When Chen He entered Penglai Heaven, the small market was quite lively. In addition to the seventy-two stall owners, there were one hundred and forty Foundation Establishment cultivators, three hundred Qi Refining cultivators, and seventy Purple Mansion cultivators.

Some people paid spirit stones to extend their stay, while others were haggling with stall owners in the Qi Refining Realm, trying to buy out their stalls.

Stall owners can sublet their stalls to others, and sublet stalls can be bought out at any time.

For cultivators of the Purple Mansion realm, buying out a stall is not difficult; tens or hundreds of thousands of spirit stones are not a lot, and buying out a stall is more cost-effective for them. Unfortunately, they came at the wrong time.

The shrewd monks rented stalls, set up their stalls, and then raised prices when they were available. They sublet the stalls and increased the price, all to make a quick buck.

Outside, Qi Refining cultivators would naturally not dare to provoke Purple Mansion cultivators, but in Penglai Heaven, the market is absolutely safe, so there is nothing to fear.

This made the cultivators in the Purple Mansion furious.

It's important to know that the higher the stall number, the more spirit stones are needed. The first stall only requires 100,000 spirit stones, the second stall requires 150,000, and so on until the tenth stall, which requires 550,000 spirit stones.

The nineteenth stall will cost one million spirit stones, and the twenty-fourth stall will cost one million two hundred and fifty thousand spirit stones.

Even a million spirit stones would be a burden for a rogue cultivator from the Purple Mansion realm.

The fact that twenty-four stalls were bought out and bound by twenty-four Qi Refining cultivators is enough to show that these twenty-four Qi Refining cultivators have deep pockets and are very likely from powerful sects.

After all, the existence of Penglai Heaven does not restrict its spread; those who enter Penglai Heaven can return and inform their sects.

Gaining the support of a sect or master is also very possible, which is why many people want to buy out the stalls.

However, the prices gradually became outrageous. The thirtieth stall cost 1.55 million spirit stones, and the fortieth stall cost 2.05 million spirit stones. These prices were truly outrageous.
