Chapter 18 Another Spring
The world of cultivating immortals has always been a place where the strong prey on the weak.
Twenty years of walking on thin ice.
Shen Ping deeply realized this.
So he would never go out unless it was necessary, and would avoid trouble if possible.
And now I thought I was going to move away from these precarious days.
result.
A word from the late-stage Qi training cultivator in front of him with a powerful aura.
The opportunity is gone.
Reality once again taught him a cruel lesson.
call.
Shen Ping took a deep breath and bowed hurriedly, "Senior Gao, I'm sorry to trouble you. I'm not Daoist Fellow Yu's partner. Please forgive me."
After saying this, he bowed and took several steps back before slowly turning around and leaving.
No matter what the relationship between Yu Yan and this fellow Taoist Gao is, he cannot make things difficult for Yu Yan under such circumstances.
The other party gave him the opportunity to share the rent.
It's a favor.
"I still have some good eyesight."
The female cultivator with the beauty mole was filled with joy.
She had been waiting here since early morning just to force her way into the cooperation opportunity.
She originally thought that the chance of success was very low, but she didn't expect that Yu Yan, who was usually cold as ice, actually found a male cultivator to share the apartment with, and his strength was so low.
This was an opportunity God had given her.
…
Shen Ping quickly walked away from the deacon lobby area.
He came to a restaurant in Fangshi, sat by the window, and ordered a glass of drink.
Thinking of my wives and concubines at home who are waiting for me.
He felt guilty and was determined to disappoint his wives and concubines this time.
Weak strength means only concessions.
There is no way.
The result of resisting with passion is a corpse.
"Fellow Daoist Yu is only in the middle stage of Qi training. Even if his combat power is stronger, how can he possibly get a place in the medium-sized courtyard in the market?"
"I was still careless."
"I didn't think about that when I was surprised."
“It led to today’s situation.”
He sipped his drink to calm the boiling emotions in his blood.
There is always discomfort in compromise.
Even if you are used to this situation, it doesn't mean you won't have any reaction at all.
I sat there for two hours.
Shen Ping figured that no one would follow him, so he stood up.
"Being strong is the foundation."
Looking at the empty wine glass.
He spoke slowly and left quickly.
After half an incense stick.
Shen Ping came to Zhenbao Tower.
Although the opportunity to live in the medium-sized courtyard has fallen through, the talisman still has to be sold.
After all, it’s not easy to go out.
These three months.
He made a total of five soul-protecting talismans and seven golden talismans.
The success rate is good.
He kept a soul-protecting talisman and a golden talisman to protect himself, and sold the rest, then bought double the amount of materials as last time.
"Fellow Daoist, these are your spirit stones after the settlement. A total of 168 middle-grade spirit stones!"
Shen Ping looked at the crystal clear, top-grade spirit stone, and a smile gradually appeared on his face.
This was not the first time he had seen a top-grade spirit stone.
But it’s the first time I own one.
Carefully put such a large amount of spirit stones into the storage bag.
Just getting ready to leave.
The female cultivator from the Zhenbao Tower called out to him and said with a sweet smile, "Daoyou, are you a top-grade talisman master?"
Shen Ping hesitated, then nodded slowly, "Yes."
"It's like this. Our Zhenbao Building has 120 vacancies for the medium-sized courtyards on the east side, and they are all in good locations. If you are willing to cooperate with our Zhenbao Building in depth, you can get one vacancies for free!"
"Of course, if you already have a quota, you can also transfer it to other monks, and it will be equally effective."
Hearing this.
His body trembled.
He suppressed the excitement that kept surging in his heart and asked in a deep voice, "How do we deepen our cooperation?"
There are some pits that you can't jump into.
He kept hinting to himself.
The female cultivator in front of him continued to smile and said, "Daoyou only need to make three high-quality talismans every month and sell them to our Zhenbao Building. And you don't need to sell them every month, as long as you meet the standard within the year!"
There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!
Shen Ping immediately started to calculate in his mind.
He successfully made twelve high-level talismans in the past three months, which means he can make four talismans per month on average. Even if his condition is not good, it will not be difficult to reach the standard in a year.
not to mention.
His experience in the art of talismans is constantly improving, and his success rate will become higher and higher in the future.
“Calm down!”
Although he wanted to agree, he suppressed his impulse and continued to ask, "With the strength of your building, these 120 places should have been given away long ago!"
The female cultivator explained, "Our Zhenbao Building only gives away places to foundation-building cultivators, top-grade alchemists, talisman masters, weapon masters, and formation masters. However, those who can reach these levels can often easily get a place. Although there are many who transfer the place, they are not serious about it because they can only transfer one place. As of now, half of the places have not been given away."
Shen Ping suddenly understood.
That's right.
There are very few people in the entire market who have reached the level of top-grade talisman master like him in the middle stage of Qi training. Most of them have to reach the eighth level of Qi training or above to become top-grade alchemist, talisman master, etc.
Some of them are even foundation-building monks.
Such monks have high status and wide network of contacts, and live in solitary courtyards with better conditions.
If a quota is to be transferred, it will usually be transferred to one's friends, relatives, etc., because of their status and the fact that their friends are all high-level cultivators, even if they are relatives, they can be arranged to live in the courtyard, or sent to Jinyang Sect as much as possible.
To be honest, places like the medium-sized courtyard on the east side are really not attractive to them.
"If you are interested, you can sign a simple contract with my Zhenbao Tower now."
Shen Ping was still worried, "What will happen if the requirements are not met by then?"
The female cultivator patiently said, "If you don't meet the requirements, you will not be able to enter the Zhenbao Building to buy or sell any items. Of course, this is only temporary. After you recover, you will be able to enter again."
Hear this.
He let out a sigh of relief and said slowly, "I promise."
The pretty face of the female cultivator of Zhenbao Tower showed a smile. Every time she won over a top-grade talisman master, she would receive a generous commission. "Fellow Daoist, wait a moment!"
Not long.
The female monk appeared again, but she was followed by a middle-aged monk.
Shen Ping took a quick look and immediately felt a strong aura like a mountain blocking his spiritual consciousness outside.
The late stage of Qi training is complete, and he may even be a foundation-building cultivator!
The middle-aged monk smiled enthusiastically and said, "I am the shopkeeper here. It is an honor for our Zhenbao Building that fellow Taoist is willing to cooperate with us!"
Shen Ping said hurriedly, "You are too polite, shopkeeper."
Now he somewhat understood why Manager Chen of Xiuchun Pavilion was so enthusiastic. It turned out that he was attracted by Zhenbao Tower.
The owner of Zhenbaolou took out a piece of special paper without delay.
The content just now is written on it.
Shen Ping took a look and found nothing wrong.
This is a piece of contract paper. After signing the contract, it will lock a person's breath, but it is limited to a range of 100 meters.
See here.
He felt completely relieved and quickly signed "Fellow Daoist Shen" on it.
No real name is required, even a random stroke will do, there are not too many restrictions.
Signed.
The shopkeeper took out a wooden plaque engraved with the three words "Jin Yang Zong".
"Fellow Daoist, with this wooden sign, you can choose any house in a medium-sized courtyard, or give it to other cultivators as a gift!"
Shen Ping took the wooden sign, and the gloom in his heart was swept away.
