33: Chapter 33 North Sea Immortal City, Array Plate Magic Artifact

Li Luochen also knew this; before the other party reached the Foundation Establishment Stage, they wouldn't do anything to him, and by the time they did reach the Foundation Establishment Stage, he would have long since reached the Foundation Establishment Stage himself.

By then, as long as he prepared some means for himself, it wouldn't be easy for Bai Qingkong to do anything to him even if he wanted to.

"Hahaha, Fellow Daoist, your contribution points should be enough to exchange for a premium foundation establishment pill by now, right? A premium foundation establishment pill will definitely allow Fellow Daoist to reach the Foundation Establishment Stage."

The goal for these minor Cultivators was the Foundation Establishment Stage; after reaching the Foundation Establishment Stage, they could then think about the Golden Core Stage, but they couldn't be too ambitious.

Bai Qingkong smiled noncommittally and said, "I accept your kind words, Fellow Daoist. I wonder how much of that Spirit Medicine you can provide?"

Li Luochen smiled bitterly and said, "It has only been planted for two years; it's not that easy to mature. It needs at least three years to reach maturity."

Bai Qingkong nodded slightly and said, "Fine, I'll have to trouble you, Fellow Daoist."

As they spoke, the two had finished their transaction, and Li Luochen received 65,200 Spirit Stones.

After the transaction, Li Luochen left the Spirit Rice Workshop, circled around a few times, and then exited Qingsha Market.

Half a month later, on the east side of Beimen Island, outside Beihai Immortal City, Li Luochen paid one Spirit Stone and entered the Immortal City.

Beimen Island was vast and housed two Immortal Cities: Beihai Immortal City in the east and Beilu Immortal City in the west.

In fact, between the two major Immortal Cities, there was also a massive trading market called Beimen Market.

It was originally intended to be built into an Immortal City, but due to the establishment of the Immortal Cities on the east and west sides, it ultimately did not succeed and only formed into a massive market.

This market was not controlled by the Beimen Sword School; it was a local force, the kind that possessed Nascent Soul old monsters.

The reason it was not built into Beimen Immortal City was that both Beihai Immortal City and Beilu Immortal City had taken a share of the profits.

It was just that because the Beihai Immortal Alliance and the Beilu Immortal Alliance had such great reputations, the Beimen Sword School's reputation was not as prominent.

But no one dared to underestimate this major local cultivation force; after all, it was a Sword Cultivator School, and there were Nascent Soul old monsters existing within the School.

If not for the fear of his daughter suffering Possession, Li Luochen would have wanted to send his daughter to the Beimen Sword School.

Upon entering Beihai Immortal City, Li Luochen quickly headed toward the Array and Artifact Workshop in the distance.

Inside the Array and Artifact Workshop, as soon as Li Luochen entered, a maidservant came up to greet him.

"Greetings, Fellow Daoist. I wonder what kind of Formation or Magical Artifact you need?"

Li Luochen asked, "If I want a Low Grade Tier 2 Formation Plate that is kept active year-round, what are the requirements?"

If the requirements were too outrageous, Li Luochen would have to abandon this idea; after all, he really didn't dare to waste the Li family's current resources.

The maidservant said earnestly, "For that kind of Low Grade Tier 2 Formation Plate that is kept active year-round, it consumes about 500 Spirit Stones annually."

"If you control the Formation to defend against enemies, the Spirit Stones required to activate the Formation will be even more, as using a Formation to defend against enemies consumes a lot of energy."

Li Luochen's eyes lit up, and he quickly asked, "Fellow Daoist, do you have a Low Grade Tier 2 Formation Plate that integrates offense and defense? How many Spirit Stones is it worth?"

The maidservant smiled upon hearing this and said, "Not only do we have Formation Plates that integrate offense and defense, but we also have Low Grade Tier 2 Formation Plates that integrate offense, defense, illusion, Spirit gathering, and Spirit locking. Does Fellow Daoist need one?"

Li Luochen asked with some surprise, "Does such a Formation really exist?"

The maidservant shook her head and said, "If you mean a Formation, then certainly not, but if you mean a Formation Plate, then yes. Guest, please follow me to the VIP room."

After speaking, she led Li Luochen into a nearby VIP room, poured a cup of tea, and then took out three Formation Plates.

"Fellow Daoist surely doesn't think that only one Formation is inscribed on this Formation Plate, right? In fact, it's not that Formations integrating offense, defense, illusion, and Spirit gathering don't exist, but only those Great Master Formation masters can set them up."

"Although our Beihai Immortal City is not small, we truly cannot provide such a Formation Plate."

"Please take a look, Fellow Daoist. This is a Formation Plate integrating offense, defense, and illusion. It is divided into two Formations: the Dragon-Snake Formation that integrates offense and defense, and the Water Cloud Illusion Formation."

"This is a Formation Plate integrating offense, defense, illusion, Spirit gathering, and Spirit locking. Five types of Formations are inscribed inside: attack, defense, illusion, Spirit gathering, and Spirit locking. These five Formations are fused together but are also separated, and their power is not weak."

"As for this last Formation Plate, it is a damaged Low Grade Tier 3 Formation: the Positive and Negative Five Elements Spirit Illusion Great Formation."

"If this Formation runs normally, it is a powerful defensive Formation; if it runs in reverse, it is a powerful offensive Formation. It comes with Spirit gathering, Spirit locking, and an Illusion Formation."

"Although it is a damaged Low Grade Tier 3 Formation Plate, the power it can unleash is much stronger than a Peak Tier 2 Formation. I feel it is quite suitable for the conditions Fellow Daoist mentioned, it's just too expensive."

"Moreover, this Formation Plate has one drawback: it must consume Medium Grade Spirit Stones to operate. If kept active normally, ten Medium Grade Spirit Stones are enough to maintain it for a year."

"If the Formation is fully activated to defend against enemies, it requires thirty Medium Grade Spirit Stones to allow the Formation to unleash its maximum power, and the Spirit Stones need to be replaced every half month."

After speaking, the maidservant looked at Li Luochen quietly and stopped talking.

Li Luochen asked, "What are the prices for these three Formation Plates?"

The maidservant smiled and said, "The first set only has three Formations: offense, defense, and illusion, and is worth 4,500 Spirit Stones. The second set of Formation Plates integrates offense, defense, Spirit gathering, and illusion, and is worth 5,500 Spirit Stones."

"As for the last Formation Plate, although it has dropped from Tier 3, its power is much stronger than a Peak Tier 2 Formation. If Fellow Daoist wants it, give me 20,000 Spirit Stones."

In reality, 20,000 Spirit Stones was not high, but if it were used to purchase the Five Elements Spirit Illusion Formation Plate, it would be a bit wasteful.

But this item was truly needed for him right now; even if a Peak Foundation Establishment expert entered it, they would be seriously injured if not killed.

This was definitely an excellent life-saving item that had to be obtained.

Li Luochen said, "Fellow Daoist, do you have Five Elements Flying Swords, Peak Tier 1 Magical Artifacts?"

The maidservant didn't mind and said earnestly, "We naturally have Peak Tier 1 Five Elements Flying Swords. I wonder if you need one or a set?"

As she spoke, she waved her hand, and two jade boxes appeared in front of Li Luochen.

After opening the first one, inside was a Magical Artifact shimmering with five-colored spiritual light.

"This Magical Artifact is of very high quality; a Great Master Artifact Refiner failed while preparing to refine a Tier 2 Magical Artifact, which is why its quality dropped to Peak Tier 1."

"Although the quality of this Magical Artifact is not bad, the price is about the same as other Peak Magical Artifacts, requiring only 1,500 Spirit Stones."

Upon seeing this Magical Artifact, a look of interest flashed in Li Luochen's eyes.

After all, this Flying Sword was very compatible with him; whether used for flying on a sword or for defending against enemies, it was excellent.

It was just that his gaze turned to the second jade box; he wanted to see the Magical Artifact inside, and then he would decide which one to choose.

The maidservant quickly opened the jade box, and inside were five thumb-sized small swords.

Upon seeing these five small swords, Li Luochen instantly took a liking to them.

"This set of Magical Artifacts consists of one Flying Sword each of the Gold, Wood, Water, Fire, and Earth attributes, and all have reached the Peak Tier 1 Magical Artifact level. If the five Flying Swords undergo Fusion, the quality can reach a Low Grade Tier 2 Magical Artifact."

"This set of Magical Artifacts is of extremely high quality and is worth 2,500 Spirit Stones."

Upon seeing this set of Magical Artifacts, the word 'want' involuntarily arose in Li Luochen's heart.

His gaze turned back to the Five Elements Flying Sword shimmering with five-colored spiritual light; he wanted that one as well.

As for those three sets of Formations, Li Luochen wanted them as well.

In this situation, he felt a bit helpless. He had received 65,200 Spirit Stones from selling Spirit Rice this time, and if he bought all of these, half of the Spirit Stones would be gone.
