You think I have mixed spiritual roots? I became an immortal through a spirit gourd, so what are you

"We still have more than half an hour before we gather. Let's go to Wanbaoge to broaden our horizons so we can be better prepared when we come to Qingyun Market in the future." Chen Huai'an had heard that Wanbaoge was the largest shop in Qingyun Market. In Wanbaoge, as long as you have money, you can buy anything you need.

Although there are some things that Chen Huai'an can't use right now, it doesn't mean he doesn't need them.

He acquired a considerable amount of cultivation resources, but he lacked any items for self-defense.

While you can buy things from street vendors, and they're cheaper, it's also easy to buy counterfeit goods.

Although the items in Wanbaoge are 10% more expensive than those outside, the items there are guaranteed to be authentic and safe, so you don't have to worry about being targeted by thieves.

Without much hesitation, Chen Huai'an stepped inside.

The imagined scenario of a large shop bullying its customers did not happen; the shop assistants did not treat him with disrespect because of his low cultivation level.

"Sure enough, the things sold in Wanbaoge are much more complete than those in the outer sect. There are special areas for selling pills and medicinal herbs, and even talismans and magical artifacts are available." When Chen Huai'an entered Wanbaoge, he really felt like an old man entering the Grand View Garden, all rustic and unsophisticated.

He wanted to buy these things after just one glance. They were really too good. If he bought them, he could be fully armed and he could do whatever he wanted on the Miscellaneous Service Peak.

This is only the first floor of Wanbaoge. If it were the second or third floor, the items sold there would be even more high-end.

Even so, Chen Huai'an was dazzled by what he saw.

Several times, Chen Huai'an wanted to take action, but in the end he held back.

He already had these basic things, but he was quite interested in the Bone Refining Pill, as it was an indispensable item on his path of cultivation.

This thing is also very expensive, worth about the same as his superior-grade Body Refining Pill. A single inferior-grade Bone Purification Pill costs five inferior-grade spirit stones. If it were superior-grade, wouldn't it cost over fifty inferior-grade spirit stones?

Unlike Body Refining Pills, which can be taken multiple times to improve cultivation, the Bone Refining Pill is most effective the first time it is taken, and the effect will be greatly reduced with each subsequent use.

Those who have plenty of spirit stones will naturally be willing to spend money to buy them, but those who lack spirit stones will not choose to buy them.

With good aptitude, one is more in harmony with nature and does not need to use elixirs to temper bones and improve physical condition.

"These things are all good, but they are not necessities. Now that I have so many cultivation resources to assist my cultivation, it is not a good thing to cultivate too fast. I should find a cultivation technique that can conceal one's cultivation level." Chen Huai'an secretly pondered in his heart.

Having a high level of cultivation is not scary; what is scary is having someone with ulterior motives find out about one's cultivation speed, as this can cause a lot of trouble.

"Excuse me, do you have any cultivation techniques that can conceal one's cultivation level?" Chen Huai'an asked a shop assistant, which was his main purpose for entering Wanbaoge.

"A technique to conceal one's cultivation level is something only immortal masters above the Qi Refining Realm can cultivate," the shop assistant said casually after glancing at Chen Huai'an.

"Do you have any here?" Chen Huai'an pressed.

"Yes, we have techniques for concealing one's cultivation level, but the price is a bit high." The shop assistant glanced at Chen Huai'an again, then said somewhat tactfully.

"Just tell me how many spirit stones it is. As long as the price is right, I'll buy it." Chen Huai'an didn't mince words. No matter how expensive it was, he had to know the price.

The shop assistant didn't get angry or make sarcastic remarks, but instead said calmly, "Even the lowest level of concealment cultivation technique costs six hundred low-grade spirit stones."

"Six hundred low-grade spirit stones." Chen Huai'an was still taken aback when he heard the price.

If it weren't for his gourd space, which allowed him to make a fortune recently, this price would be far beyond what a mere Body Refinement cultivator like him could ever dream of.

When he arrived, he had heard that cultivation techniques were very expensive, and many people were unwilling to buy them. Instead, they chose to complete sect missions and exchange contribution points for corresponding cultivation techniques from the sect's cultivation technique pavilion.

Chen Huai'an couldn't wait for the sect to distribute this cultivation technique; now that he had the opportunity to obtain it, he wanted to get it.

"Give me one." Chen Huai'an didn't hesitate and bought it directly. This kind of thing is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.

"What, you want one?" The clerk thought he had misheard and repeated it.

"Yes, get me a cultivation technique that can conceal one's cultivation level," Chen Huai'an said calmly.

Instantly, the shop assistant's attitude towards Chen Huai'an changed, and he became very respectful.

"Honored guest, please wait a moment. There is a private room next door. Please move to the private room and I will fetch the cultivation technique for you right away."

Soon, Chen Huai'an was led to a VIP reception room in a corner of the hall, which was specifically used to receive guests making large transactions.

If this deal goes through, he will receive a commission of several spirit stones, equivalent to several months' salary.

Whether in the world of cultivation or in the secular world, the wealthy can enjoy privileged treatment.

The private room wasn't very big; it was separated from a large room. Inside, there was a small tea table. When Chen Huai'an sat down, a waitress brought him some fruit platters, pastries, and spiritual tea.

"This Wanbao Pavilion is really rich and powerful, using spiritual fruits to entertain guests." Chen Huai'an couldn't help but sigh.

He picked up the spiritual fruit on the table and pretended to eat it, but when no one was looking, he stuffed it into his pocket.

Spiritual fruits are valuable. If they were to enter his purple gourd space, would they be tempered and upgraded?

"This spiritual tea is also a good thing; drinking it can improve one's health." Chen Huai'an took another sip of the tea. Although it wasn't as good as his spiritual spring water, its effects were still quite remarkable.

Soon, the shop assistant returned, carrying a jade tray with two white jade slips on it. These were used in the cultivation world to record cultivation techniques.

"Honored guest, here are two cultivation techniques for concealing one's cultivation level. Please choose which one you prefer. This one is the Breath Concealment Technique, which has no rank. This one is the Qi Concealment Technique, which can only be cultivated after reaching the Qi Refining Realm."

"Is there any difference between the two?" Chen Huai'an asked with a smile.

"There are two differences. One is suitable for cultivation in the Body Refinement Realm, while the other can only be cultivated in the Qi Refining Realm. Also, there's the price. The Nameless Breath Concealing Technique is an incomplete version, so although it can be cultivated in the Body Refinement Realm, there are no further steps, and it becomes useless in higher realms," the shopkeeper explained with a smile.

"How many spirit stones does this Concealing Breath Technique cost?" Chen Huai'an asked, showing interest.

"This 'No Concealing Breath Technique' is a unique copy with no printed versions, and it costs nine hundred low-grade spirit stones. The 'Concealing Qi Technique,' on the other hand, costs six hundred low-grade spirit stones."

"Alright, I want this Breath Concealing Technique. Here are ten high-grade spirit stones, and another one hundred low-grade spirit stones. Also, prepare some foundation-strengthening and energy-nourishing pills for me. I need mid-grade pills." Chen Huai'an took out ten high-grade spirit stones from his pocket.

Since he'd already shown off his wealth once, he might as well buy more of the good stuff he needed this time.

"Oh, right, also bring me some mid-grade Qi Refining Pills. If you don't have enough spirit stones, just let me know," Chen Huai'an said, remembering something.

With these pills, he was able to break through to the late stage of the Body Refinement Realm, and he should also prepare for the Qi Refining Realm.

The shop assistant stared wide-eyed at Chen Huai'an as he took out a high-grade spirit stone, even more shocked than before. "Alright, esteemed guest, please wait a moment, I'll prepare the pills for you right away."
