14: Chapter 14: Buying Equipment!
Zhao Changsheng looked at the azure flame in his hand, feeling somewhat as if he were dreaming.
Although the Rank of this azure flame was only Red, its significance and value were extraordinary; its power, in particular, truly exceeded his imagination and expectations.
With such a flame, Zhao Changsheng could guarantee himself a powerful helper in the future, whether for destroying enemies or other tasks.
After all, he was crystal clear about the power of this flame and naturally understood that it was a fine treasure.
“Truly a good item. However, what should I do next?”
Withdrawing the flame into his body, Zhao Changsheng carefully contemplated his next move.
With his current strength, the most pressing matter was to increase his power and then find a way to leave the Tiannan Cultivation World.
To be precise, it was to leave the Yue Country Cultivation World!
After all, the entire Yue Country Cultivation World was soon to be in an indefensible state, as were the surrounding countries; thus, leaving Tiannan was the best choice. However, leaving was not so easy; he needed to find a Teleportation Array.
If he didn't find the Teleportation Array, wanting to leave would be nothing more than a pipe dream.
Even for a Nascent Soul Stage Cultivator, leaving the Tiannan Cultivation World at will was no easy feat; the only other way was to fly toward the prairie tribes. But that was no different from seeking death.
According to the original plot, even when Han Li reached the Middle Nascent Soul Stage and tried to pass through the prairies to reach the Great Jin Cultivation World, he nearly lost his life.
One could imagine how dangerous it was; therefore, under these circumstances, heading to the prairie tribes was an act of pure suicide.
In particular, the Mulan Clan of the prairie tribes would soon be at war with the Nine Kingdoms Alliance; going there was simply asking for death.
Under these circumstances, after much thought, there was only one way: find the Teleportation Array and head to the Chaotic Star Sea.
This was the only option at the moment; besides this method, there was simply no better way.
But finding the Teleportation Array was no easy task.
In the entire Yue Country Cultivation World, only one person knew the specific location of the Teleportation Array: the Sect Master of the Black Fiend Cult!
Only this person had obtained the Legacy of Ji Xuan, so he could go look for him.
Thinking of this, Zhao Changsheng took a deep breath. With his current strength, killing the Sect Master of the Black Fiend Cult would be no easy matter.
The opponent was not only a Late Stage Foundation Establishment Cultivator but also had many subordinates and Divine Abilities that could not be underestimated.
Under these circumstances, even with the Green Lotus Earth Core Fire, he did not have absolute certainty of killing him.
However, he could buy equipment!
Moreover, he had not only Spirit Stones but also thousand-year spirit medicine on him.
Thus, Zhao Changsheng decided to go buy some equipment first, especially the heavenly thunder seed.
This was a major weapon of destruction; as long as he had this heavenly thunder seed, killing the Sect Master of the Black Fiend Cult would not be difficult. However, before killing him, he had to learn the location of the Teleportation Array from his mouth.
This was another rather troublesome matter, as getting that information from him would not be easy.
Thinking of this, Zhao Changsheng felt he should buy equipment first and then plan carefully.
He had to ensure everything was foolproof. Anyway, the Black Fiend Cult was currently in the Imperial City and couldn't run away, so there was no need to worry too much.
If nothing unexpected happened, the opponent's Four Great Blood Servants had not yet been fully assembled, making it even less of a concern.
After ensuring there were no oversights, Zhao Changsheng directly took his belongings and left his newly established Immortal Cave, setting off for the market.
The first place he intended to visit was the Ten Thousand Treasures Pavilion.
Because they had what he needed: the heavenly thunder seed.
This was a good item that he absolutely could not miss; if he did, it would be troublesome, as it was the trump card he was preparing.
The arrival of a Foundation Establishment Stage Cultivator naturally received personal attention from the manager of the Ten Thousand Treasures Pavilion.
“May I ask what Senior desires?”
This manager was just an ordinary Mortal, yet he still addressed Zhao Changsheng as Senior.
“A set of Formations, several Magical Artifacts, as well as a heavenly thunder seed and a talisman treasure.”
Zhao Changsheng was not at all polite, directly stating the items he wanted.
“It seems Senior has a fate with our Ten Thousand Treasures Pavilion. It just so happens that we recently acquired several heavenly thunder seeds. As for Formations, we certainly have no lack of them, and the same goes for Magical Artifacts. It's just this talisman treasure... we truly don't have one, as very few people would ever sell such a thing.”
Zhao Changsheng picked up the fragrant tea handed over by a maid, took a sip, and spoke indifferently. This demeanor made the manager even happier; he quickly apologized and asked Zhao Changsheng to wait a moment while he went to fetch the items personally.
After all, with so many items, he didn't feel comfortable leaving it to anyone else.
To this, Zhao Changsheng naturally had no objection, continuing to leisurely sip his tea while waiting for the manager to return.
The manager did not keep him waiting long, returning in just half a quarter-hour with several trays in his hands.
On the trays were several red silk handkerchiefs covering items.
Immediately, the manager placed the trays on the table and said with a smile:
“Senior, here are the items you requested. I wonder what Senior intends to use for the exchange?”
The manager did not open them but instead asked a question first.
Zhao Changsheng was not surprised by this; he tapped his Storage Pouch and took out two boxes.
Then, he opened both boxes. Upon opening, a rich medicinal fragrance wafted out, refreshing the mind and lifting one's spirits.
“thousand-year spirit medicine!”
Upon seeing the herbs in the boxes, the manager blurted out. As the manager of the Ten Thousand Treasures Pavilion, he had at least this much discernment.
“Indeed, it is thousand-year spirit medicine. If you don't believe it, you can find a Great Master to inspect them.”
These two stalks of thousand-year spirit medicine were obtained by Zhao Changsheng from Han Li.
They were for use in case of emergencies. As for whether they would bring danger? He didn't care much now.
If there truly were danger, he had sufficient power to protect himself, so there was no need to worry too much about such things.
Hearing Zhao Changsheng's frank and calm words, the manager hesitated for a moment before instructing a subordinate to invite a Great Master over.
Then, an elderly man in his seventies or eighties arrived in the VIP room and began to inspect the thousand-year spirit medicine Zhao Changsheng had produced.
After confirming they were genuine, the look in the manager's eyes as he watched Zhao Changsheng changed.
A Cultivator who could produce two stalks of thousand-year spirit medicine in one go was an extraordinary existence.
His status and position were definitely unusual; the manager even felt that the man looked somewhat familiar, though he couldn't quite place where he had seen him before.
