Top-level Qi Luck: Leading My Clan to Cultivate

Seeing this scene, Lin Tianming was puzzled, but after careful thought, he could understand the reason.

Clearly, even though the battle for Yuyao City had ended, this temporary city, established by the Zhenyang Sect, was not going to be allowed to fall into desolation.

After all, Yuyao City had a solid foundation and already possessed the scale of a small market town. With a bit of expansion, combined with the Third Order Great Array for defense, it could easily meet the requirements of a medium-sized market town.

All that was needed was to further boost commerce and attract Loose Cultivators to reside there, and it could be developed into a small-to-medium-sized market town capable of generating a substantial amount of wealth each year.

Therefore, the Zhenyang Sect would naturally take this opportunity to fully activate Yuyao City's potential.

With these thoughts in mind, Lin Tianming no longer dwelled on the matter and stepped into the Sky Dragon Pavilion.

Upon entering the first floor of the Sky Dragon Pavilion, there were over a dozen Qi Refining Cultivators picking out treasures.

Lin Tianming did not hesitate to walk inside, and soon a Qi Refining Cultivator hurried over to attend to him.

Seeing Lin Tianming, the Qi Refining Cultivator was very polite, obviously recognizing him or having heard of his achievements.

To this, Lin Tianming was not surprised.

After all, he had been a frequent occupant of the Demon Hunter Leaderboard this past year, consistently appearing at the top.

Many cultivators in Yuyao City knew him, whether they were Foundation Establishment Cultivators, Qi Refining Cultivators, or even Golden Core Cultivators, who would pay attention to those with outstanding talent and strength.

And the people of the Sky Dragon Pavilion, doing business in Yuyao City, would naturally pay attention to this as well.

Since they were in business, they naturally had the ability to read people and pick up on subtleties, and they would certainly focus on Genius Cultivators or those with formidable power.

They did this to avoid showing neglect when meeting them in person, causing them to lose customers or even offend these cultivators.

Understanding this, Lin Tianming was at ease.

"Senior, if you need anything, you can go directly to the second floor, where this junior can give you an introduction!"

Seeing the eagerness of the Qi Refining Cultivator, Lin Tianming spoke directly, "Is Daoist Tang Xiuhe present?"

"Yes, yes... Allow this junior to send a message, and senior can follow this junior to rest on the second floor for a moment!"

The Qi Refining Cultivator replied respectfully, then sent a message and led Lin Tianming towards the second floor.

Shortly after, the Qi Refining Cultivator ushered Lin Tianming into a guest room on the second floor to wait for Tang Xiuhe, the Executive Officer of Sky Pavilion, to arrive.

Time for a cup of tea passed by.

From a distance, a friendly laugh could be heard at the doorway.

"Haha... Daoist Lin graces us with his presence, I regret not having greeted you from afar, my apologies!"

Seeing that it was Tang Xiuhe, whom he had planned to visit, Lin Tianming quickly got up, cupped his fists, and greeted him.

"I've met Daoist Tang!"

"It's been some time, Daoist Tang, how have you been lately?"

"Very well... I am quite fine, just a bit lonely, that's all!"

"With the war over, many Daoist friends have left Yuyao City, and I've had some idle time on my hands."

"I'd never thought Daoist Lin would stay, let alone visit my Sky Dragon Pavilion to spend some time with me; it seems you've been thinking of me."

Hearing this, Lin Tianming smiled faintly, then sat down with Tang Xiuhe, chatting over tea as if they were quite familiar with each other.

A short while passed, and after exchanging a few courteous but insipid pleasantries, Tang Xiuhe finally asked about Lin Tianming's intentions.

Lin Tianming did not beat around the bush, saying directly, "Today's visit is not only to catch up with Daoist Tang but also to do business with you."

"With Daoist Lin's formidable power, I assume ordinary items wouldn't catch your eye."

"Feel free to speak up; my pavilion has just received a batch of goods that might satisfy Daoist Lin," Tang Xiuhe replied with a smile.

"Oh?"

Lin Tianming was immediately intrigued.

The purpose of his visit to Sky Pavilion was firstly to gather information on the Cultivation World.

Secondly, it was to see if there were any treasures worth acquiring. After all, as a well-known Commerce Alliance in Qingzhou, Sky Pavilion had a relatively high chance of presenting valuable items.

Aside from a few medium-sized marketplaces that have a Sky Dragon Pavilion, smaller-sized markets generally don't have many big shops and it's hard to come across fine items.

It happens that I'll be leaving Yuyao City in a few days. It would be safer on the road to have a few more methods prepared.

With these thoughts, Lin Tianming got straight to the point, "I would like to stock up on some Second Order Talismans, be they for attack or defense, or other consumable treasures."

"As long as they can enhance my strength or improve my cultivation, I'm interested."

Hearing this, Tang Xiuhe nodded and then took out a ledger made of beast skin to examine it carefully.

Soon, he laid out more than ten Second Order Talismans in front of himself.

Upon a cursory glance, each talisman was at least of Second Order Medium Quality, with as many as four Second Order Superior Attack Talismans among them.

"Daoist Lin, the common items won't catch your eye. These are some talismans that might just meet your requirements," he said.

"As for items that can enhance cultivation, we've recently gotten a batch of Blood Crow Fruits. Would you be interested?"

Upon hearing this, Lin Tianming's demeanor showed excitement, clearly very much interested.

Before coming, he had roughly guessed that what Sky Dragon Pavilion could sell were probably items of moderate value.

Yet, he had not expected that there were quite a few Blood Crow Fruits for sale.

However, he had already consumed two of them not long ago; even if he took a few more, the effect would be very limited.

Still, despite this, he decided to inquire about the price of the Blood Crow Fruits. If the price was right, it wouldn't hurt to buy a few and take them back for his parents to use.

Having made up his mind, Lin Tianming directly asked about the prices of the various talismans and the Blood Crow Fruits.

Tang Xiuhe pondered for a moment, then began to explain.

"Daoist Lin, you and I are old friends. Quite a few cultivators have left Yuyao City, and the prices of treasures have uniformly dropped," he said.

"These Second Order Medium Grade Attack Talismans are two thousand Spirit Stones each, while the Defense Talismans are three thousand Spirit Stones each."

"Second Order High Grade Attack Talismans are priced at three thousand eight hundred Spirit Stones each, and Blood Crow Fruits are five thousand Spirit Stones a piece."

At Tang Xiuhe's quoted prices, Lin Tianming furrowed his brow.

The prices were indeed lower than during the great war, but still a bit more expensive than before the outbreak of the beast tide.

Although he had over sixty thousand Spirit Stones in his storage bag, if he bought a lot, he would still be reluctant to spend that much.

After considering for a bit, Lin Tianming finally said, "I'll take all four Second Order Superior Talismans and four Second Order Defense Talismans."

"I also want four Blood Crow Fruits. These treasures don't come at a low total price, so Daoist Tang, you should offer a fair discount."

"Ha... since Daoist Lin has made a request, naturally I should show some regard!" Tang Xiuhe replied with a hearty laugh and an excited tone.

Soon, after some calculations by Tang Xiuhe, Lin Tianming got the treasures he specified for a total of forty-four thousand Spirit Stones.

Tian Ming was quite satisfied with the deal, as Tang Xiuhe had reduced the price by one thousand two hundred Spirit Stones in one go.

Afterwards, Lin Tianming immediately took out enough Spirit Stones and received the items he had purchased from Tang Xiuhe.

With the transaction complete, Tang Xiuhe was quite excited inwardly.

After all, a deal involving more than forty thousand Spirit Stones was exceptionally rare for a store in Yuyao City since its opening.

Ordinarily, only core disciples from the Zhenyang Sect with substantial wealth or some strong Loose Cultivators could afford to spend like this.

Therefore, when he looked at Lin Tianming once more, his attitude became even more enthusiastic.

Seeing the change in Tang Xiuhe's expression and tone, Lin Tianming wasn't surprised.

While his ties with Tang Xiuyuan weren't shallow, after coming to Yuyao City, he hardly brought any substantial benefits to Tang Xiuhe.

So it wasn't realistic to expect that Tang Xiuhe would voluntarily share some information just based on their not-so-profound connection.

In such a situation, he was willing to spend a large sum of money on these treasures as a way to repay Tang Xiuhe for the information about the cultivation world provided over the past year.

Sure enough, before he could speak up, Tang Xiuhe took the initiative to introduce the recent situation in the Wei Kingdom's Cultivation World.
