Chapter 238 We Are Rich

    

of small drinks, her face turning rosy. On land, she would absolutely not be allowed to drink alcohol at her age, but in the dragon palace, she had reached an age where she could officially get marrie...Chapter 238: We Are Rich

"Haha, seeing Master leading the way, it seems that you consider yourself an important figure of the Tian Shan Sect," Lu Lili stepped forward and said with a smile.

Hao Ren stared at the golden lion flying far away and then continued to stroll around without caring about what had just happened.

After walking for a few steps, he suddenly thought: "Tian Shan Sect... shouldn’t they have the Ten Thousand Year Rainbow Snow Lotus"

"Are all major sects setting up stalls here" Hao Ren asked Lu Lili.

"This trade fair is like a free market for cultivators and isn't divided by sect," Lu Lili explained.

Usually, a group of three to five fellow cultivators would gather together and set up their own stall to exchange items they needed."

"Hmm, you have good eyesight. Help me find the Tian Shan Sect's stall," Hao Ren said.

This trade fair was bustling with activity but rather chaotic. It might be a place where one could stumble upon something valuable, but finding a specific stall would be quite difficult.

"The Tian Shan Sect is considered a major cultivation sect and belongs to the Sixth Level of Heaven. Their disciples' stalls should be in the middle of this trade fair," Lu Lili said.

Seeing Hao Ren following her, Lu Lili added an explanation: "Cultivation sects vary in size; small sects are scattered across five levels of heaven and have the most numbers. Some sects with distinctive features and power reside on the sixth level where the spiritual energy is relatively abundant, possessing their own territories. As for major cultivation sects that possess comprehensive strength, there are roughly eight to ten of them occupying seventh heaven, while super-large cultivation sects like Shenzhou Sect monopolize eighth heaven, which is closest to the Nine Heavens."

Levels upon levels, each clearly defined, forming a complete society. Judging from these tens of thousands of cultivators participating in this trade fair, the number of cultivators across fifth, sixth, seventh, and eighth heavens must be at least several million, or even tens of millions!

"Shenzhou Sect has its own system and occupies all of Eighth Heaven. Other cultivation sects also have their connections; some major sects develop minor sects into affiliates from which they select talented individuals. Minor sects strive to grow and aim for higher levels of heaven. The Tian Shan Sect is known for its distinctive approach in cultivating medicinal herbs and raising spirit beasts, despite being a sixth-level sect. They maintain good relations with several major seventh-level sects, giving them significant standing within the Sixth Level."

Lu Lili approached and added some more information.

Hao Ren nodded; it was indeed as he had guessed. Cultivation sects resided above fifth heaven and were completely isolated from the human world. If one considered that dragon clans still lived among ordinary humans with a bit of familiarity, then these cultivation sects showed no interest whatsoever in the common folk on land.

"Nine Transformations Soul-Reviving Pill! Shape-Shifting Pill! Yin-Yang Dragon-Tiger Pill! White Lotus Pill! Cold Plum Pill!"

A series of continuous shouts interrupted Hao Ren's thoughts.

He turned to see a small stall with numerous bottles of medicinal pills, and the stall owner was wearing plain dark blue Daoist robes, around forty years old.

"Master, those are fake pills. There’s no need for us to go over," Lu Lili reminded Hao Ren beside him.

Seeing郝仁's gaze sweep over, this cultivator shouted at 郝仁 again, "Elder Brother, are you from the Heaven Mountain Sect Your snow lion seems to be of a lower rank. Buy some shape-changing pills for it! I guarantee that it will quickly advance in rank! Practicing both ice and fire techniques!"

"Knowing our young master is a disciple of the Heaven Mountain Sect, yet still daring to deceive him with lies!" 陸琳琳 said to him.

Upon seeing 陸琳琳 slightly narrow her eyes, this cultivator hurriedly packed up his stall and fled far away. He originally thought 郝仁 was young and had two beautiful female cultivators accompanying him, so he assumed that 郝仁 lacked experience and had resources; thus, he could con some spirit stones from him. However, unexpectedly, he was exposed.

It's because he only saw 郝仁's Foundation Establishment realm cultivation but didn't expect that 陸琳琳 and 陸莉莉, who were intentionally concealing their strength, had already reached the lower grade Dry Level equivalent to early Core Formation stage!

If either 陸琳琳 or 陸莉莉 were to act, they could intimidate three or four small sects at the Fifth Layer of Heaven.

Seeing that middle-aged cultivator hastily flee, 陸琳琳 gave a sweet smile and said, "Young Master, with us accompanying you, you don't need to worry about being cheated."

郝仁 smiled back; indeed, having 陸琳琳 and 陸莉莉 by his side, he couldn't even suffer losses if he wanted to.

In this crowded crowd, the little white unable to fly moved quite awkwardly. It乾脆 reverted to its mini version, chasing after 郝仁's heels with a run and jump, like a rolling ball of white fluff.

"Haha, Young Master, those few stalls ahead are from disciples of the Heaven Mountain Sect," 陸莉莉 pointed towards them and said.

Seeing several adjacent stalls of the Heaven Mountain Sect with quite a number of people in front of them, 郝仁 noticed that their business wasn't bad at all.

He led 陸琳琳 and 陸莉莉 to push through and found that the items here were indeed more advanced than what was sold at the previous stalls.

"The pills are genuine, while the cultivation techniques are ordinary. The age of those spirit herbs isn't sufficient either. If Young Master wants to raise Bai [the snow lion], buying some more pills would be a good choice," 陸莉莉 turned around and said to 郝仁.

Due to the crowd being dense, 陸莉莉 stood very close to 郝仁, almost touching him as she spoke. Upon noticing that her face was just a few centimeters away from 郝仁's, half of it blushed.

"How much are these pills sold for" 陸琳琳 took a step forward and asked the Heaven Mountain Sect disciple who was setting up the stall.

The disciple replied, "Basic Qi replenishment pills cost one low-grade spirit stone each. Buy a bottle that contains 500 pills. Basic soul recovery pills cost ten thousand low-grade spirit stones each. Buy a bottle containing eight of them. Basic detoxification pills cost 180 low-grade spirit stones each. Exchange for a bottle with six inside. These are the only three types of pills here, and there's only so many left."

Perhaps noticing 陸琳琳’s beauty, the Heaven Mountain Sect disciple who was making the transaction specifically paused to give her an elaborate explanation.

"I'll take all the Qi replenishment pills and soul recovery pills," 陸琳琳 said without beating around the bush.

The surrounding cultivators had initially assumed that this pretty girl was just inquiring about prices before calculating how many bottles to buy but didn't expect her to immediately claim all the pills at the stall!

Seeing everyone looking at her in surprise, 陸琳琳 asked again, "Are the prices of these pills also the same at the stalls nearby"

The astonished disciple of the Tianshan Sect hesitated before nodding.

He and a few senior and junior brethren came out to set up stalls, intending to exchange for some spirit stones and then buy defensive magical treasures. But he hadn't expected that even these basic medicinal pills could be sold.

After all, so-called "basic" medicinal pills had weak effects and were not very useful in actual battles!

"Alright, I'll take all the Qi-Replenishing Pills and Soul-Reviving Pills from these five stalls," Lu L琳 said.

The surrounding cultivators sucked in a cold breath.

Although Qi-Replenishing Pills and Soul-Reviving Pills weren't very expensive, there were still hundreds of bottles across the five stalls. That was more than a thousand spirit stones!

"Sis, buy the Immortal Grass too. Take it back to give it to Little White as snacks," Lu Lingli came over and told Lu Linlin.

"Alright!" Lu Linlin nodded and asked the Tianshan Sect disciple, "How much for the Immortal Grass"

The Tianshan Sect disciple stammered, "Eight intermediate spirit stones per bundle."

"Alright. There should be many bundles here too; I'll take them all," Lu Linlin said calmly.

The surrounding cultivators sucked in another cold breath.

Just as everyone was wondering about the background of these two young girls who were spending spirit stones so casually, they suddenly turned around and asked, "Mister, would you like to buy up all the Detoxification Pills too It can clean its body."

The gazes of everyone present shot towards Hao Ren's face and body.

These two beautiful twins who were Foundation Establishment cultivators spent money so casually—was this really at the behest of this young nobleman

This youth, dressed in ordinary robes, was the wastrel from which major sect!

"Yes, buy them all. This way, we don't have to run around," Hao Ren said.

His calm attitude was simply unbearable! Ordinary cultivators in a Fifth Stage sect could only receive about 10 intermediate spirit stones even after reaching the Foundation Establishment stage!

"Alright, Mister!" Lu Linlin didn't hesitate and took out many advanced spirit stones from her ring, placing them in front of the Tianshan Sect disciple.

An intermediate spirit stone can be exchanged for four basic spirit stones, but the assistance provided to cultivation by an intermediate spirit stone is far beyond what a mere four basic spirit stones could offer!

The casually produced intermediate spirit stones from Lu L琳琳 immediately left these onlooking cultivators speechless!

Even disciples of the major sect, Heavenly Mountain Sect, were dumbfounded! These medicinal pills were collected by them from their senior and junior brothers to help sell. They did not expect to actually be able to sell any of it.

Liu L琳琳 and Liu 莉莉 bent slightly and put all three types of medicinal pills as well as the one type of immortal herb on five stalls into a Hymn Beads Ring.

The mini version of Little White smelled the scent of the medicinal pills, leaped excitedly to Hao Ren’s arms upon smelling them.

Hao Ren patted Little White’s head. "You little dead white ball, this time you can eat your fill!"

“Um…” The surrounding cultivators were collectively speechless.

The numerous intermediate spirit stones could be exchanged for an extremely large amount of basic spirit stones. They were actually used just to raise one small thing!

Even the majestic golden lion could not enjoy such treatment! If Little White understood this, it would definitely stand in front of that golden lion and use its paw to point at its nose while looking down on it with a contemptuous yet proud gaze.

"Right, do you have any seven-colored snow lotus that matured after ten thousand years" Hao Ren asked casually.

“Click click click…” The surrounding cultivators had completely entered the stage of mental breakdown.

A seven-colored snow lotus that matured in 10,000 years was a treasure of Heavenly Mountain Sect. It was said that there were only three of them and this kid actually wanted to buy one!

"W-well…" The disciple from Heavenly Mountain Sect was also dumbfounded.

“Oh.” Hao Ren originally intended to ask how he could get his hands on it, but seeing the reactions of those around him, felt that not asking would be better.

"Young Master, we have put everything away. Even if Little White is gluttonous, it can eat for a month," said Lu L琳琳 and Liu 莉莉 as they returned to Hao Ren’s side.

A whole month! Of numerous intermediate spirit stones!

Hearing this statement made the surrounding cultivators truly enter mental breakdown.

In the eyes of these Heavenly Mountain Sect disciples who specialized in raising snow lions, the immature young snow lion before them was definitely not a regular snow lion. It was a divine beast!

"Let’s go," Hao Ren said as he hugged Little White and turned around to leave. Lu L琳琳 and Liu 莉莉 followed closely behind.

Not showing any regret for the numerous intermediate spirit stones they had just used, their expressions were completely devoid of concern. the words.A feeling hidden deep inside him began to spread.Zhao Yanzǐ didn't speak either, only showing determination in her actions and a hint of stubbornness.With his hand on her smooth waist, 郝仁’s...
