Qi training nine levels

Seeing the three shy individuals who had not yet spoken, the alluring and charming woman twisted her waist and slowly walked over.

Her clothing was very thin, a large expanse of her chest was exposed, and the slit of her lower robe was extremely high, revealing her long, fair legs.

As she walked, her robe swayed with the wind, practically leaving nothing to the imagination.

Perhaps wanting to tease Li Tan, the woman leaned on his shoulder and gently blew warm air into his ear.

The fragrant scent of rouge instantly filled Li Tan's nostrils.

Instead of falling into a gentle dreamland as he had imagined, he felt his mind become clearer and more transparent, likely because the woman had dispelled the enchantment on everyone.

She bent down, meticulously observing Li Tan's expression; her movement must have been too wide, causing Wang Longzhi's nosebleed to gush out uncontrollably.

Li Tan steadied himself and forced a calm demeanor, saying:

"Senior, does your shop have... treasures containing Dragon Blood?"

Wang Longzhi's voice followed closely, "And first-grade High Grade Medicinal Pills."

The woman wore a charming smile, her voice captivating:

"Our Ten Thousand Treasures Pavilion has everything. Young Masters, please follow me."

She then said no more, twisting her graceful waist and walking forward.

The three followed behind her, a rich, fragrant scent assailing their noses, accompanied by a comfortable and pleasant aroma that intoxicated the senses.

Soon, everyone arrived before a counter, and the woman cast a seductive glance:

"Dragon Fruit, three hundred years old, grown in a burial ground with thin Dragon Blood. After consumption, it can enhance a Cultivator's Physique, strengthen their Cultivation, and also improve their Bloodline. Its only drawback is that it cannot allow the consumer to obtain the first trace of Dragon Blood."

"Now look at this item, Dragon Scale Ganoderma, three hundred years old, cultivated and nurtured through Acquired means, a rare Spiritual Artifact."

"And this item, Dragon Blood Stone, contains a drop of turbid Dragon Blood..."

The woman's voice was charming and soft, captivating and highly suggestive.

After her brief introduction, Li Tan pointed to a fist-sized Spiritual Fruit and tentatively asked:

"How many Spirit Stones is this Quenching Dragon Fruit worth?"

The Quenching Dragon Fruit was entirely black, its surface covered with runes. The moment the jade box was opened, a powerful life force instantly permeated the surroundings.

The woman's eyes curved into a smile, full of charm and allure.

"Young Master truly has excellent eyesight. This Quenching Dragon Fruit is truly extraordinary, its quality has reached first-grade High Grade. Books record that this fruit is one of the favorite foods of giant Dragons, and Cultivators who consume it can also greatly enhance their Physique."

"Even the Bloodline can be improved by a notch, and its powerful life force can also be used as a good medicine."

"Considering that Young Master is a High Grade Disciple, Ten Thousand Treasures Pavilion will sell it at an 80% discount, just to form a good connection. The price is one hundred and five thousand Low-Grade Spirit Stones."

Treasures related to Dragons were always expensive. Although he had expected it, the current price still greatly startled Li Tan.

Adding another fifty thousand Low-Grade Spirit Stones, he could probably buy a High Grade Dao Artifact.

Spirit Stones should naturally be saved whenever possible; no one would complain about having too many Spirit Stones with nowhere to put them.

Li Tan haggled, "This price is too high, one hundred thousand Spirit Stones."

The woman's expression became somewhat serious, and she refused outright!

"One hundred and twenty thousand Spirit Stones."

The woman waved her hand again, "Young Master, our shop does not allow bargaining. Besides, this valuable Quenching Dragon Fruit has already been discounted for you."

Li Tan wouldn't believe her nonsense and continued to entangle with her.

After a long time, an agreement was reached between the two parties, with the price set at one hundred and thirty thousand Low-Grade Spirit Stones.

During his time in the Li family, with two secret grants from Li Yong, his hands were incredibly lavish, and even the fractional amount had not been spent.

It was hard to imagine how wealthy a Building Foundation Cultivator could be.

Li Shang and Li Yanfeng, who were from the same sect, probably only had over ten thousand Low-Grade Spirit Stones. If he were to ask himself, without Li Yong's help, Li Tan would only have tens of thousands of Low-Grade Spirit Stones in his possession.

Moreover, that didn't include his Cultivation Technique and weapons. From this perspective, Li Yong had indeed invested heavily in him, to the extent of cultivating him by pouring out his family's wealth.

The only thing that worried Li Tan was, "The inability to Breakthrough to the Golden Core Realm also makes me firmly controlled by Li Yong."

.............

"Since I still have a large surplus of resources, why not recruit and expand my own strength!"

With this thought, Li Tan no longer hesitated and said seriously:

"Senior, do you have Foundation Establishment Stage Spiritual Artifacts? Or second-grade Spiritual Talismans?"

As soon as these words fell, Wang Longzhi and Mu Xinling behind him instantly became unsettled, their expressions of shock and awe clearly showing their admiration for Li Tan's financial prowess and the abundance of Spirit Stones in his possession.

As second-grade items were standard for the Foundation Establishment Stage, there was no doubt that the price would likely skyrocket to millions of Low-Grade Spirit Stones!

The woman smiled enchantingly, her eyes playfully examining Li Tan, "I'm afraid I'll have to disappoint Young Master."

"Does that mean your esteemed shop doesn't have second-grade items?"

"No, Ten Thousand Treasures Pavilion has everything, gathering all things under heaven... countless rare treasures. If it were to claim to be second in comprehensive coverage, I'm afraid no one would dare to claim to be first."

Li Tan's eyes widened in even greater surprise.

"Second-grade corresponds to Building Foundation Cultivators. Price is only one aspect; another is the restriction between our shop and the Immortal Sect."

"Only Disciples within the Heaven Sword Immortal Sect who have reached the Foundation Establishment Realm can unlock the qualification to purchase second-grade items."

Circling back, the root cause was still Li Tan's Cultivation being too weak, making him unqualified to possess second-grade Spiritual Artifacts.

The small farce quickly ended, and everyone began to choose their desired items.

..................

Li Tan ultimately purchased two treasures containing Dragon Blood: the "Quenching Dragon Fruit" and the "Dragon Fruit."

The total Spirit Stone expenditure amounted to two hundred and twenty thousand Low-Grade Spirit Stones, completely exhausting his Low-Grade Spirit Stones. He still had ten thousand Mid-Grade Spirit Stones left in his storage ring.

Wang Longzhi, on the other hand, purchased a first-grade High Grade Dao Artifact. In his words, "A man can only show his heroism by using dual blades!"

"When I master dual blades, that will be the day countless young maidens will be infatuated with me and cheer!"

Mu Xinling didn't buy anything, merely clinging to the two men like a small bird, quietly accompanying them.

She was not like the wealthy Li Tan, who could even covet second-grade items.

A Cultivator being able to afford an increase in Cultivation already indicated a superior family background, with no need to worry about the dangers of the outside world, thus proving the depth of their background.

Here, Mu Xinling appeared quite humble, but in the eyes of outsiders, she was an unattainable... Phoenix Young Miss!

"Pity that the clothes on my body are thin, my heart worries about cheap charcoal, wishing for cold weather."

There is no upper limit to affluence and honor, and no lower limit to destitution.

.........................

Upon returning to the small courtyard, Li Tan did not hesitate and decisively consumed the two Medicinal Pills.

A surging amount of Qi and Blood madly poured into his body! Accompanied by low Dragon roars.

"Qi Refining Ninth Layer!"

He had even touched the threshold of the tenth layer. At the same time, Li Tan's physical body also greatly improved!

That trace of Dragon Blood also saw a slight improvement.

The two maids knelt on the ground very obediently. These days, Li Kexin had long shed her Young Miss's airs, working diligently without complaint.

Initially, Li Tan was somewhat resistant to the two women, thinking they were useless idlers, but the messy small courtyard always needed someone to clean it.
