Chapter 116 Strolling Around Snow City

In Xiao Lin's spiritual wood space, the entire space of about three meters long and wide was divided into four pieces.

One piece was planted with dozens of rejuvenation flowers, and the other was planted with a few five-element spiritual herbs. Of course, the seeds of the five-element spiritual herbs he picked were also planted in this field. These two fields were the largest, occupying 90% of the space of the spiritual wood space. On the other side, the red fruit obtained from Hua Rongrong was growing healthily. As for the five-leaf grass, it naturally occupied a piece.

Although the five-element spiritual herbs grew well, Xiao Lin had no choice without the pill formula. Moreover, in Xueling Fairy City, he visited almost all the shops selling spiritual pills. Except for a few shops that sold Yunling Pills, there was no shop selling the five-element spiritual pills.

From the shop assistants, Xiao Lin learned that the reason why the Five Elements Spiritual Pills were almost extinct in these shops was mainly because the Five Elements Spiritual Grass in the Tianlu Mountains had become extremely rare after being picked by countless Qi Refining cultivators for thousands of years.

After all, a Five Elements Spiritual Grass that can be used to make pills needs at least sixty years of medicinal age, and it is not easy to grow it safely in the Tianlu Mountains to sixty years of medicinal age.

Therefore, the wild Five Elements Spiritual Grass has almost become extinct. Now only the five major sects still have some spiritual fields, where such spiritual grass can be planted. Xiao Lin also learned from the shop assistants that if you want to plant spiritual grass, there is a prerequisite, that is, spiritual fields.

Spiritual fields are not just a piece of land on the mountain. Spiritual fields must be opened on spiritual veins. Such spiritual fields can be used to plant spiritual grass. In addition, there are many requirements in the process of opening up spiritual fields. As for the specific opening methods, I am afraid that only the people of the five major sects know.

Spiritual herbs, after all, grow by absorbing the spiritual energy between heaven and earth. In the Tianlu Mountains, although the spiritual energy is slightly denser than that in the mortal world, it is not enough to allow spiritual herbs to grow. The concentration of spiritual energy in the Tianlu Mountains is also different. Only in some mountain streams or dangerous places can the spiritual energy gather due to the terrain, and only in such individual places can spiritual herbs grow.

However, most of the decent spiritual veins in the Tianlu Mountains are occupied by the five major sects. Even if there are some small spiritual veins, they are occupied by several large cultivation families. Therefore, for casual cultivators, it is nothing more than a foolish dream to want to obtain cultivation resources by planting spiritual herbs.

The five major sects have opened up spiritual fields in places with sufficient spiritual energy. Most of these spiritual fields are planted with first- and second-level spiritual herbs such as spiritual fog grass and five-element spiritual grass. After being refined into spiritual pills by the alchemists in the sect, they are distributed to low-level disciples in the sect for cultivation.

This is also the fundamental reason why most of the independent cultivators and the children of the cultivation families are trying their best to join the five major sects. In today's increasingly scarce cultivation resources, being able to enter the five major sects is undoubtedly a shortcut on the road of cultivation.

After learning this, Xiao Lin was more and more fortunate that his spiritual wood space could grow spiritual herbs, and it seemed to be a spiritual field. However, Xiao Lin did not know whether the spiritual wood space itself was a spiritual stone vein or because of the strange little tree.

However, Xiao Lin did not care about this. Anyway, as long as he could grow spiritual herbs, it was already a great opportunity for him, and it also made him full of confidence in his future in cultivation.

Xiao Lin also paid attention to the other shops in this fairy city. For example, there are shops selling various magic tools in this Xueling Fairy City. There is an inner city, and the entrance fee to the inner city is also ten low-grade spirit stones. This really makes Xiao Lin speechless. Even though Xiao Lin now thinks he is rich, the ten low-grade spirit stones for the inner city entrance fee really make him feel distressed.

But after entering the inner city, Xiao Lin also opened his eyes. Compared with the shops in Chixia Fairy City, they are much more luxurious. Some large shops even have some top-grade magic tools for sale, which surprised Xiao Lin.

However, after seeing these top-grade magic tools, Xiao Lin gave up the idea of ​​buying one. On the one hand, the price of these top-grade magic tools is extremely high, and it costs thousands of low-grade spirit stones. This price has far exceeded the market price of top-grade magic tools. Xiao Lin even suspected that these shops did not intend to sell these top-grade magic tools at all, but just hung them in the shops to attract customers.

On the other hand, most of these top-grade magic weapons can only increase the power of primary spells by less than half. This attribute is already a bit useless. Not to mention Xiao Lin's disdain, most cultivators who can afford top-grade magic weapons probably don't like them.

What disappointed Xiao Lin was that these top-grade magic weapons were all offensive magic weapons, and there was not a single defensive magic weapon, which made Xiao Lin give up the idea of ​​buying.

In the inner city of Xueling Immortal City, Xiao Lin was surprised to see the name of [Ancient Artifact Building]. It seems that the business of [Ancient Artifact Building] is really good. Even the largest Xueling Immortal City has opened a store. Moreover, the [Ancient Artifact Building] in the inner city of Xueling Immortal City has five floors, and the number of magic weapons on display is amazing. Countless Qi Refining cultivators come in and out, many of whom are disciples wearing the outer door clothes of the five major sects.

Looking at these arrogant disciples, Xiao Lin felt extremely envious. Most of these people were born in cultivation families and with the help of their family's influence, they were able to enter the five major sects and become outer disciples. But compared to the huge number of independent cultivators, this starting point was already much higher.

Of course, those extremely rare cultivators with royal spiritual roots would never come here. Even in the five major sects, cultivators with royal spiritual roots are like treasures. The gifts from the sects alone are enough for cultivation. They don’t need to buy magic tools themselves. Moreover, even in the five major sects, those cultivation resources tend to favor disciples with better qualifications. There is no doubt about this.

Xiao Lin walked out after entering the [Ancient Artifact Building]. This [Ancient Artifact Building] is the same as the one in Chixia Fairy City. It does not sell top-quality magic tools. Most of them accept orders for custom-made magic tools. The number of low-level cultivators is extremely large. In Xiao Lin’s opinion, this service alone is enough to make the [Ancient Artifact Building] earn a lot of money.

After leaving the [Ancient Artifacts Building], Xiao Lin walked into another street. After walking around, Xiao Lin stopped in front of a shop called [True Talisman Building]. Xiao Lin had seen the power of talismans. He had always been interested in the way of talismans, but due to his limited time, he did not spend time on it.

Xiao Lin walked into the shop and saw an old man coming up to him as soon as he entered the door.

"I am Zhang Daoyi, a manager of this [True Talisman Building]. I don't know your name. Do you want to buy some talismans for self-defense?" The old man looked to be in his fifties or sixties, with wrinkles all over his face and gray and white hair.

Xiao Lin felt it and knew that the old man's cultivation was the sixth level of Qi Refining, one level lower than his own, but Xiao Lin didn't care. In this fairy city, the receptionists in all the shops were either young girls who had just started practicing or low- to medium-level practitioners who were already in their twilight years.

This is easy to understand. Most young women who have just started practicing will not choose to go to the Tianlu Mountains to hunt monsters. After all, this hard work has many risks. If a girl encounters a group of male cultivators, she may encounter some uncertain dangers.

Moreover, most of these young girls who have just started practicing have low cultivation levels, and they are basically willing but unable to hunt monsters. Therefore, they usually choose to find some reception positions in the shops of the Immortal City, so that they can earn some fixed spiritual stones every month to maintain their cultivation.

As for those low-level and middle-aged cultivators in their twilight years, after they have failed to break through the realm and have passed their prime years, their path to cultivation has basically been cut off, and they have lost their enterprising spirit. Usually, they will find a job in various shops to kill their remaining time after being discouraged. Of course, those with younger generations at home can also use this to earn some spiritual stones to cultivate their younger generations.

"I'm Xiao Lin, I want to see the talismans." Xiao Lin smiled and said, but his eyes were looking around. There were many counters on the first floor of the shop. Some of them did not sell finished talismans, but some spiritual paper, spiritual pens, spiritual ink and other materials for refining talismans, while under other counters, there were some finished talismans.

Xiao Lin came to the counters of these finished talismans and looked at them carefully, but soon he frowned. These talismans were basically some basic talismans. Although the spells sealed in them were varied, they were all some basic spells. This level of talismans seemed a bit useless to Xiao Lin now.

Seeing Xiao Lin's expression, the old man surnamed Zhang's eyes lit up and he hurriedly came up: "Fellow Daoist Xiao, do you want to buy some higher-level talismans?"

"Yes, the power of these basic talismans is a bit too low. I wonder if your building has some good talismans for sale?" Xiao Lin said casually.

"Of course there are." Hearing this, the old man surnamed Zhang's eyes showed a look of surprise. He continued: "Let's not talk about anything else, but when it comes to making talismans, it is definitely one of the best in this Xueling Fairy City. The talismans sold by our [True Fu Building] are the best in quality, and the owner behind our [True Fu Building] is from the Qianfu Sect."

When the old man surnamed Zhang mentioned the Qianfu Sect, his voice was very low, as if he was afraid of being heard by others. Xiao Lin's face remained calm, but his heart was moved and he became a little interested.

Qianfu Sect seemed a bit mysterious among the five major sects. Xiao Lin had heard that in terms of the number of disciples, Qianling Mountain, Dancao Mountain and Bailian Sect undoubtedly had the largest number, with tens of thousands of disciples. In comparison, Tianyun Pavilion and Qianfu Sect had much fewer disciples.

The reason why Qianfu Sect had so few disciples was that to join Qianfu Sect, one not only had to have an excellent talent for cultivation, but also had to have a certain talent for refining talismans. This requirement discouraged many cultivators who wanted to join Qianfu Sect.
