Chapter 57 - Immortal Fate Of Longevity: Starting From Taking Care of Fellow Daoist Wife
Chapter 57: Gifts for Loved Ones Tai Feng also had cultivation at the seventh level of Qi Refining, and his blood quality was decent. However, Xia Changge didn't absorb it. It wasn't that he was wasteful, but rather he couldn't refine it. The blood of a ninth-level Qi Refining expert could compare to countless top experts in the martial arts world. Xia Changge had barely withstood the energy from the Qi Refining ninth-level expert, absorbing any more might cause problems. Moreover, Xia Changge was doing this for the first time, so he still felt a bit uncomfortable. Taking Tai Feng's storage bag and casually removing his armor, Xia Changge threw the withered body of the Qi Refining ninth-level expert into the fire, letting it burn and emit the fragrance of roasted meat. With a benevolent heart, Xia Changge fused the inseparable master and servant together so they would never separate again. Xia Changge didn't leave when this master and servant pair became unrecognizable due to burning. Even if someone passed by and extinguished the flames, at most they would recognize Tai Feng's identity. This matter couldn't be associated with Xia Changge. Because...the fatal injury that killed Tai Feng was caused by heavy weapons. And Xia Changge, the elegant gentleman who used a three-foot-long sword, had nothing to do with it. Xia Changge found a place and changed into a clean attire. He adjusted his appearance slightly and integrated his chaotic internal energy. After making the necessary adjustments, Xia Changge arrived at the gate of the Immortal City. He paid three spirit stones and entered Yun'an Immortal City. It was his first visit, so he appeared somewhat nervous. In this Immortal City, only the gatekeepers were at the seventh level of Qi Refining, which greatly affected Xia Changge. Xia Changge found an inn and settled down, organizing his loot. Everything he obtained from Tai Feng and his subordinates, including spirit stones, Xia Changge intended to sell off. Keeping them with him was a potential danger. He would sell the magical tools at a low price and use the spirit stones to buy the things he needed. "Four magical tools, over nine hundred spirit stones..." Xia Changge was very pleased. He now had two big brothers supporting his cultivation. This amount of spirit stones might not be their entire savings. Unfortunately, Xia Changge could only get this much. But among the four magical tools, two were of superior quality. All their values combined, two thousand spirit stones could definitely be obtained. "I obtained the cultivation technique for the ninth level of Qi Refining, but unfortunately, this person didn't bring his family's Foundation Establishment cultivation technique. Maybe he doesn't have the qualifications to learn it now." This experience gave Xia Changge another option to obtain a Foundation Establishment cultivation technique. After organizing his loot, Xia Changge basically ignored the magical arts inside. He didn't practice those things much. He enjoyed playing it sneaky. In his whole life, he would never openly fight with others! As for cultivation techniques, Xia Changge was pleasantly surprised to find a book on the ninth level of Qi Refining, "Heavenly Origin Technique," in Tai Feng's storage bag. Based on its content, there should be a later chapter on Foundation Establishment. It was unknown whether this was the first half of the Tai family's Foundation Establishment technique. In any case, Xia Changge still needed to cultivate it. With this, the ninth level of Qi Refining wasn't a big problem for Xia Changge. After almost finishing his preparations, Xia Changge walked onto the street and clumsily searched. He arrived at the Scattered Cultivator Market in Yun'an Immortal City. Here, there were Qi Refining cultivators, making it suitable for Xia Changge to conduct transactions. Xia Changge set the prices for his magical tools very low, about eighty percent of the market price. All four magical tools were sold within half an hour. One hundred and twenty spirit stones for a lower-grade magical tool, three hundred and forty for a middle-grade one, and five hundred for the armor. Xia Changge obtained over a thousand spirit stones just like that. The low-profile Xia Changge quietly entered the large market, preparing to see if there was anything that could catch his interest, something he needed to buy. He still had too little money on him. He wanted to buy armor for his wives and concubines. He himself didn't need such magical tools and armor, at least not at this time. Unfortunately, middle-grade magical tools suitable for armor were priced above eight hundred spirit stones, extremely expensive. If Xia Changge were to buy two sets of middle-grade armor... After considering, Xia Changge only bought two sets of lower-grade armor and one set of middle-grade armor. But even these cost him one thousand four hundred spirit stones. Fortunately, he didn't mind. After all, these over one thousand spirit stones were all things he picked up. In cultivating, you have to be open-minded. "Friend, I wonder if you have any elixirs or similar items to assist children with spiritual roots to become enlightened? And also, items to assist children at the first and second levels of Qi Refining in their cultivation?" Xia Changge arrived at the place that sold elixirs and inquired. This place's shops were much more formal, and the receptionists and salespeople were beautiful female cultivators. It's just unknown if there are certain rules among them. "Friend, we naturally have them. This is the spirit powder developed by the Pill Sect. It is scattered in water, and the child needs to soak in it for half an hour every day to cultivate. It can only be specially purchased by the royal family of Zhao Country..." This female cultivator at the fifth level of Qi Refining spoke sweetly and sounded like she was making it up. Someone like Xia Changge, who wasn't good with words, didn't have any hope of engaging in this industry. After understanding, Xia Changge also realized that this powder had been around for a long time. Zhao Country couldn't refine it themselves, so they could only specially purchase it. One hundred spirit stones for a few ounces of powder. But a small vial of spirit powder would last a long time. Xia Changge had two children at home, and in a few years, he might have three or even four... So, considering his achievements today and the spirit stones he obtained, Xia Changge bought six vials. This time, Xia Changge spent all the money he "picked up" today. Squandering a fortune and regaining it, Xia Changge looked forward to the next time he would stumble upon a treasure trove. He had prepared everything his younger sister and his two children needed. Xia Changge definitely couldn't forget his sister-in-law. Hmm, let's also add his clever disciple who had been obedient and hardworking recently, and whom Xia Changge had grown fond of. For An Ruoshui, having a lower-grade magical tool, a flying sword, would be enough. This time, Xia Changge's personal savings decreased by one hundred and fifty spirit stones. His sister-in-law... Ah, he wanted to prepare a nice gift for Zhang Miaoyi, but she couldn't use it. If there was a discrepancy... Comparing them, he was afraid there would be a huge disparity. Xia Changge treated everyone equally. Even if he couldn't hold the water level completely level, it shouldn't be greatly different. Walking on the street, Xia Changge saw all sorts of strange people. "Is this a hermit expert?" Xia Changge saw someone waving the banner of Baixiaosheng, and he immediately had this thought. After a brief consideration, Xia Changge did want to inquire about some information about various major sects within Zhao Country. He hadn't had a channel for that until now. Now he intended to ask this middle-aged man.
