Chapter 72 Exchange Meeting

Song Qingming led Shi Chun through the crowd and walked to the west of the market. The two soon arrived at his cave.

Meeting a friend he hadn't seen for many years, Song Qingming was very happy. He picked up the teapot on the table and brewed a cup of fragrant spiritual tea for Shi Chun.

After Shi Chun picked up the spiritual tea, he smelled it first, drank a small sip, and then nodded and smiled at Song Qingming.

"Good tea!" After the tea entered his mouth, a fragrant spiritual energy entered Shi Chun's stomach, which made him praise it, with a long aftertaste!

"Fellow Daoist Song, why did you come to Bailong Mountain? This place is not close to your Qinghe County." After putting down the teacup in his hand, Shi Chun couldn't help but ask Song Qingming.

Song Qingming smiled and replied, "Fellow Daoist Shi, you don't know that I have been in Guiyunfang for the past two years. Last month, I heard someone in the market say that a conference would be held in Bailong Mountain, and there would be many good things. I also wanted to come here to broaden my horizons, so I came here."

"So, fellow Daoist Song, you have been in Guiyunfang for a long time, why haven't you come to see us for so long? Have you forgotten about us?" Shi Chun heard that Song Qingming was now in Guiyunfang, and a smile appeared on his face.

Seeing some dissatisfaction in Shi Chun's tone, Song Qingming smiled bitterly and said awkwardly: "Don't blame me, Daoist Fellow Shi. I also went to find you after I arrived at Guiyunfang, but unfortunately I didn't see you. I don't know whether you Daoists are out hunting monsters or have left Guiyunfang, so I missed meeting Daoist Fellow."

"Oh, I blamed Daoist Fellow wrongly. Alas, in order to practice in recent years, my junior sister, Brother Tieshan and I often go out hunting monsters. It must be a coincidence that we just missed Daoist Fellow's visit. Fortunately, it is destined by God that Daoist Fellow and I meet again in Bailong Mountain."

"Daoist Fellow Shi, did Daoist Fellow Zhang and Daoist Fellow Qin also come to Bailong Mountain?" Song Qingming asked casually when Shi Chun mentioned the two.

Shi Chun shook his head and said, "We were supposed to come together, but unfortunately Brother Tieshan was going to retreat to break through his cultivation, and my junior sister stayed to protect him. I was the only one who came to Bailong Mountain this time. After the meeting, we returned to Guiyunfang, and Brother Tieshan should have come out of retreat. Then, welcome Brother Song to come to our place and have a few drinks."

Old friends met, tasted tea and reminisced about the past. The two chatted in the cave for an hour until the full pot of spiritual tea was finished. Shi Chun smiled and said goodbye and left.

Song Qingming sent Shi Chun all the way to the cave where he lived, and then slowly returned to his own cave.

After nightfall, Song Qingming took out the magic weapon he had just obtained today from the storage bag and looked at it carefully again.

The magic weapon Tianluo Umbrella is the second top-grade magic weapon Song Qingming has obtained. Like the previous Taixu Sword, this magic weapon also cost Song Qingming 150 spirit stones.

However, when Song Qingming bought the Taixu Sword, according to the normal price of a high-grade magic weapon, he paid a premium, and the price of this Tianluo Umbrella is much more reasonable compared to its value.

The price of a high-grade defensive magic weapon is generally around 150 spirit stones. If this magic weapon did not have some obvious shortcomings and consumed the mana in the cultivator's body too quickly, it would normally be more than this price, and it is estimated that it can be sold for 20 more spirit stones.

After practicing the Yuxuan Sutra, Song Qingming's mana is about 30% stronger than that of the cultivators of the same level. Now he can almost ignore the weakness of this magic weapon. In the future, when he breaks through to the late stage of Qi Refining, this magic weapon will play a greater role in Song Qingming's hands.

In order to avoid any problems with this magic weapon, Song Qingming plans to sacrifice and refine it on Bailong Mountain first. If something happens again, he can directly find the seller to deal with it.

Song Qingming sat cross-legged in the cave and circulated the mana in his body, trying to adjust his state to the best.

After a night of practice, Song Qingming did not go out the next day, but stayed in the cave to continue meditating and adjust his state, preparing to start refining the Tianluo Umbrella today.

Unexpectedly, a wave of restriction came from outside Song Qingming's cave, so Song Qingming had to stop meditating and open the cave restriction.

The person who came to find him was indeed Shi Chun, his only acquaintance in Bailong Mountain.

Shi Chun saw Song Qingming coming out of the cave, and said with a smile: "Fellow Daoist Song, I didn't see you go to the venue today, and I thought you forgot the time yesterday. I came to remind you. I hope I didn't disturb your practice."

Song Qingming shook his head and said: "I am short of money. I didn't bring many spiritual stones with me when I came to Bailong Mountain this time. I came mainly to see the world. I bought what I needed at the venue yesterday. Today, I don't have too many spiritual stones. I really don't dare to go out. I just plan to sacrifice a magic weapon I just bought yesterday in the cave."

"Haha, it seems that fellow Daoist Song must have found a magic weapon he likes, so he is so anxious to sacrifice it." Shi Chun laughed twice, looked at Song Qingming meaningfully and said.

Song Qingming also smiled, but did not answer directly. He asked Shi Chun:

"Fellow Daoist Shi, when I was in Guiyunfang, I heard from a fellow Daoist that there would be foundation-building pills for sale at the Bailongshan Conference. Yesterday, I took a careful look around, and I didn't see many magic weapons above level 2, let alone foundation-building pills. I don't know why. Could it be that the Bailongshan Conference is not as good as it is said to be."

Shi Chun was stunned for a moment after hearing this, and then said with a smile: "Haha, Fellow Daoist Song, you don't know this. We are poor Qi-refining casual cultivators, how can we easily see these precious things? If you want to see good things, you have to participate in the exchange fair held by Bailong Pavilion."

"Exchange fair? Why didn't anyone tell me about this? Please tell me in detail, Brother Shi, so that I can broaden my horizons."

Song Qingming was surprised when he heard that there was still an exchange fair in Bailongshan. After the conference yesterday, Song Qingming had almost given up on asking about the foundation-building pills. When he heard what Shi Chun said, a glimmer of hope suddenly rekindled in his heart.

Shi Chun stopped and followed Song Qingming into the cave. After Song Qingming closed the cave door, Shi Chun slowly spoke:

"Fellow Daoist Song should also know that this Bailongshan Conference will be held for a total of three days. The venue outside is naturally prepared for ordinary Qi-refining cultivators like us. However, on the last day of the conference, a large exchange will be held in the Bailong Pavilion in the middle of the market. Cultivators who want to buy valuable spiritual objects will go to the exchange.

I have heard from fellow Daoists who have participated that many valuable things in the Bailong Pavilion exchange cannot be bought directly with spiritual stones, and must be exchanged with spiritual objects of equal value.

Of course, not everyone is eligible to participate in the White Dragon Pavilion Exchange. You must have at least spiritual objects or spiritual stones worth more than one thousand spiritual stones to be eligible to participate in the exchange. "

After listening, Song Qingming smiled with a shocked face and said, "Wow, one thousand spiritual stones, this exchange is really amazing."

"Hehe, now you know, this is not something that we casual cultivators can enter casually. Those who can enter are either wealthy Qi-refining cultivators or those foundation-building cultivators with profound cultivation. "

"Brother Shi, have you heard that there are foundation-building pills for sale in the White Dragon Mountain Exchange?" Song Qingming asked casually.
