Beauty helps me achieve immortality

Zhao Qing pondered for a moment, then said, "How much are the prices of the Rejuvenating Pill and the Level 1 Spirit Gathering Array in the building?"

Anti-aging pill?

Wan'er was slightly surprised and replied, "Guest Wu just gave Wan'er a Rejuvenating Pill yesterday, but it was an auction item."

"If I buy it at the regular market price, it would cost 150 spirit stones."

"As for the Spirit Gathering Array, you can buy it directly in the building for one mid-grade Spirit Stone."

call……

Zhao Qing was thinking in his heart, just two hundred and sixty spirit stones were spent?

Money is really not worth spending...

But you have to buy it. The Spirit Gathering Array is a necessity. In addition to providing spiritual energy to the Green Pine Array, it also makes it much more convenient for you to meditate and practice.

As for the Rejuvenating Pill, it would be fine if I had never obtained it before.

But now that I have a little more money, I should buy some for Shuyue.

Wan'er said, "Why don't you go see Senior Wu, Mr. Zhao? You two are both alchemists in the building. It shouldn't cost more than a hundred spirit stones to get a Rejuvenating Pill."

Zhao Qing said directly, "Just buy it at the official market price. Go get it first. Also, get me ten portions of the ingredients for the Spirit Refining Pill."

Wait until the female cultivator left the compartment again.

Zhao Qingcai stood up, opened the window, and shook his head secretly.

Go to Senior Wu to buy pills?

It would be fine if there was nothing in the building, but this is obviously a cheap thing and should not be done.

After all, we've only met once...

Even if he was really that close to that senior who had established his foundation, the gift was still a personal favor and could not be used lightly.

……

It was noon. Zhao Qing put all his belongings into the storage ring and left his compartment.

The ingredients for ten portions of the Spirit-Refining Pill cost one hundred spirit stones. Based on the current success rate of nearly 30%, there is actually no profit margin.

But you still have to slowly hone your progress. Once your proficiency reaches the next level, your income will be much more substantial.

In addition, Wan'er told me that there would be two auctions in the building every month, in the middle and at the end of the month, and the guests in the building could participate.

Zhao Qing just kept it in mind and didn't ask any more questions.

Whether in his past life or this life, he had never been to a place like an auction house.

Besides, I don’t have much money to go around, so I might as well stay at home and make progress.

"The higher the realm, the more money it costs! Zhong Miao Ju, the auction house... I don't know when I can experience it again."

Although Zhao Qing did not want to take a concubine easily, he had little objection to visiting brothels.

Mainly I want to find an opportunity to verify what the effect will be on the panel if someone else does dual cultivation.

You don't have to go home, there is no burden, no waste of time and emotions, and you can also study the added effects of dual cultivation.

If you only spend some spirit stones, it's still quite cost-effective.

You can pick any one you want, there is no risk. Where can you find such a good thing?

Zhao Qing suppressed his thoughts and turned into the depths of the second floor.

I plan to find Zhou Xiaoyi to exchange information and see if there are any more risks in the sect.

He paused briefly in front of the vermilion lacquered wooden door, then raised his hand and slowly knocked on the door.

But after just two knocks, the lacquered door opened silently.

"Brother Zhao, please come in and sit down."

A tall woman appeared before him, but her attire was very different from the last time they met.

Her originally loose black hair was tied up behind her, and the gauze dress was replaced with a plain white robe, completely concealing her exquisite figure.

Zhao Qing nodded slightly and glanced behind the door...

Looks like I don't need to take off my shoes today.

A set of tea sets was neatly placed on the floor on one side of the table, and two cushions were added to the originally smooth floor.

Zhao Qing sat at the side of the desk, knowing what was going on.

It seems that the last time I visited her suddenly, I had the opportunity to feast my eyes on her. But this time, I guess she noticed me as soon as I arrived at the Blood Robe Building.

Zhou Xiaoyi calmly gathered her robe belt and then sat opposite Zhao Qing.

"This is Xiaoyi's homemade fresh tangerine tea. It's called Bitter. Brother, try it."

As she spoke, she handed the teacup beside her to Zhao Qing.

Zhao Qing glanced at the thing in the cup. He recognized it. It was an orange.

"Thank you."

After thanking him, he lowered his head and took a sip from the edge of the teacup.

The tea is as its name suggests, slightly bitter with a hint of sourness, but after swallowing it, there is an aftertaste of the sweetness of orange... It is not a magical tea.

It's just ordinary orange juice.

What surprised Zhao Qing was that the water temperature in the cup was well controlled, just right for slow drinking.

He raised his head, took a deep look at the woman opposite him, and smiled.

"Yes, the name bitter is just right. Any more or less would make the taste lack."

Zhao Qing glanced at the tightly closed window and said bluntly, "Elder Qian has already gone to Nanze County. It's exactly as Junior Sister said before."

"But a few days ago, something strange happened in the sect."

Zhou Xiaoyi pursed her lips, a rare softness in the corners of her eyes, and said, "Xiaoyi doesn't know much about the recent situation in the sect. Senior Brother, could you elaborate?"

As she spoke, she took out a chessboard and two baskets of black and white chess pieces from her storage ring.

Zhao Qing's mind moved slightly, and he helped put the two people's teacups beside him and put them back on the table.

"Junior sister, you are quite elegant."

The woman chuckled silently and placed the chessboard in the center of the table, with the chess baskets on both sides.

"Brother, would you mind playing a game of hand?"

Zhao Qing glanced across the table, nodded slightly, grabbed a handful from beside him, and played first with white.

He realized that the other party had made sufficient preparations this time and intended to learn the details of the sect's changes from him.

Snapped.

Snapped.

Snapped.

For a moment, the only sounds in the compartment were the sound of chess pieces falling on the board and faint breathing.

It was not until this moment, after Zhao Qingping calmed down, that he smelled the fragrant dew that his wife had described.

It is refreshing yet a bit oppressive, yet extremely soothing. If you don't notice it, it's just ordinary, but if you pay attention, you'll find it's very rich.

……

After a long while, Zhao Qing looked up at the woman who was playing chess seriously, and couldn't help but speak first.

The main reason is that his level is not high, otherwise he would have fought the other party to the end no matter what.

"What do you want to ask, Junior Sister?"

Zhou Xiaoyi's expression remained calm as she said, "Please tell me everything you know. This is a serious matter, and I ask for your forgiveness."

Zhao Qing looked up at the woman and continued to make his move.

"Around the time of Bailu, Elder Qian scheduled a trial at Shouyun Mountain. All menial disciples were to participate, with one hundred spots available for the outer sect."

The woman nodded slightly. "Some of the senior brothers and sisters in the sect have noticed something. If he wants to gain a real foothold in the Four Symbols Sect, he really needs some cultivators of his own."

It was pretty much what I thought… Zhao Qing continued, “The rules of the trial are that all servants must search for the spirit gathering array he has set up on the mountain. If there are exactly 100 people in the array, they can be promoted to the outer sect.”

Zhou Xiaoyi paused her arm, held the black piece with her slender fingers and hesitated for a moment on the chessboard, then placed the piece and spoke.

"He wanted something from Shouyun Mountain... but it made life difficult for those menial disciples. How many of them died?"

"Less than four hundred." Zhao Qing made his move and then drank tea to quench his thirst.

He sighed slightly, and drank tea and played chess while talking about things.

This feeling... is a bit strange.

The weird thing is that two people in the middle stage of Qi training are discussing the golden elixir here.

Well, I am the weird one. He is my direct disciple, so it makes sense for him to be a research elder.
