For example, those pearls were collected for her by Wu Xuefei in the post-apocalyptic world. Perhaps due to species mutation, the pearl oysters in that world grew exceptionally large, producing pearls that were much larger than ordinary ones.

However, Lu Huan couldn't always be sending pearls when he was traveling. If he caught the attention of some important figure, the Cheng family's explanation would likely be difficult to use to explain the origin of these pearls.

Fortunately, Lu Huan still had time.

She adjusted the terms of her trades with her sisters. Prioritizing crystal cores, followed by valuable antique jade artifacts, and finally gold and silver.

Next came what Lu Huan was most looking forward to. Chi Yuwei had thought it through and decided to try the method Lu Huan had provided.

Lu Huan put a primary mental energy crystal core and a small cup of spiritual spring water into the exchange system.

Please enter the desired exchange item.

Lu Huan: [Do you have anything to test spiritual roots?]

Fairy Lingwei: [Yes, do you need anything else?]

Lu Huan: [Let's get another weapon. It just needs to be sharper than ordinary weapons.]

Chi Yuwei rummaged through her storage ring for a while and found the initiation gift her senior brother had given her in a corner.

It was just a flying sword of the spiritual weapon level, but because it was a gift from her senior brother, Chi Yuwei had treasured it to this day. However, she no longer needed it.

She put the spirit-testing stone and the flying sword in together and selected to trade.

A harsh alarm sounded, echoing throughout the space.

This was the first time Lu Huan had heard such a sound. She opened the trading system and found a big red cross in Ling Wei Fairy's exchange items.

Fairy Lingwei: [It seems we can't exchange weapons. How about we try something else?]

Lu Huan pondered for a while before making a decision: "I'd also like to exchange for two more storage bags."

Fairy Lingwei: [Okay.]

This transaction was very successful.

Lu Huan immediately opened the transaction window. Inside the square box lay two ordinary-looking purses and a shiny stone.

Chi Yuwei quickly sent the instructions: "Hold the spirit-testing stone in your hand. If you have a spiritual root, the stone will emit a corresponding light."

Lu Huan also informed the other party about the pain that might occur when taking the crystal core.

She stared at the spirit-testing stone, both expectant and apprehensive. After hesitating for a while, she finally reached out and took it in her hand.

After waiting for a long time, the stone remained unchanged, without any alteration.

After only a few moments of sadness, Lu Huan rallied her spirits again. She was already one of a kind in the world to have such a treasure as a spatial ability; not being able to cultivate wasn't a big deal.

Lu Huan: [The stone didn't light up, it seems I don't have a spiritual root.]

On the other side, after absorbing the medicinal power of the potion, Chi Yuwei sensed her own soul and found that it had indeed become much more solid.

At the same time, her understanding of the Dao of Heaven deepened. She had a premonition that if her soul could break through before her body, she might be able to escape this desolate land.

At this moment, she received a message from Lu Huan, who comforted her: "Even in our cultivation world, where spiritual energy is abundant, there are still many mortals. It's perfectly normal that you don't have spiritual roots. I have quite a few body-refining techniques here; once mastered, they can rival those of Foundation Establishment cultivators."

After exchanging two storage bags with Lu Huan, Chi Yuwei had a lot of things scattered around her.

She rummaged through her storage ring, not only searching for body-refining techniques for Lu Huan, but also tidying up the clutter in her own storage ring.

I don't want the pills my senior brother gave me! I'll throw away the jade pendant my senior uncle gave me! I'll throw away the talismans my junior uncle gave me...!

Chi Yuwei retrieved all the gifts from the depths of her storage ring from those who chose to sacrifice themselves to protect her junior sister at the crucial moment.

As she let go of one thing after another, Chi Yuwei actually felt that the bottleneck that had been restricting her had loosened a little.

In this absolutely silent place, she suddenly burst into laughter, and as she laughed, a tear quietly rolled down her cheek.

"I, Chi Yuwei, sever all ties with the Lingyun Sect from this day forward. From now on, I will dedicate myself to cultivation in order to attain enlightenment!"

Beyond the nine heavens, heaven and earth responded, thunder rumbled, and the vow was fulfilled!

She kicked the pile of messy things on the ground a little further away, but the next moment, she changed her mind and walked over to it.

Chi Yuwei stuffed all those useless items, along with the cultivation techniques she found, into the trading window.

When Lu Huan saw this long list, he was stunned: [Boss, isn't this too much? How many spirit springs am I supposed to give you?!]

Fairy Lingwei: 【No, no, these were all gifts from my senior brothers and uncles. I don't need them anymore, so I'll give them all to you. If you want to thank me, give me more spiritual spring water and crystal cores in the future.】

After removing a bunch of untradeable weapons and offensive runes, the items in the trade window dropped out directly.

Like a squirrel hoarding goods, Lu Huan checked the instructions for each item on the list.

By the end, Lu Huan felt somewhat frustrated.

The trading system is far too demanding!

Those body-refining techniques that contain even a trace of offensive moves have been eliminated by the trading system.

Chi Yuwei put in about ten cultivation techniques, but in the end only one passed the selection—named "Eternal Spring Technique".

As the name suggests, this is a health-preserving exercise for strengthening the body. Mastering it can prolong life, potentially reaching 150 years old.

This cultivation technique has absolutely no offensive capabilities, making it utterly useless in the cultivation world. Chi Yuwei doesn't even remember when she put it into her storage bag.

Lu Huan: Trading system, thank you so much!

She sorted the items she had acquired into categories and packed them into wooden boxes, then piled them up in the room on the left.

This used to be Gao Zhongbao's bedroom, and Lu Huan had no intention of continuing to sleep here. The thought of Lu Ruyi's provocation made her feel nauseous.

She opened one of the wooden boxes, which contained a stack of talismans, mostly basic ones such as defensive talismans and peace talismans, but also about ten unlucky talismans.

If Lu Ruyi jumps out and causes trouble again in the future, Lu Huan won't mind using a few of her cards.

She hadn't forgotten the newly replaced storage bag.

Deng Ya, who was previously in an interstellar plane, had expressed curiosity about storage bags. However, the trading partner she was matched with, located in the cultivation world, was extremely difficult to deal with and demanded too much money, so she was reluctant to part with it.

Lu Huan was much more generous—her exchange request was a space button of the same size, filled with gold bars.

Deng Ya agreed without saying a word.

In her past life, she had mentioned that gold wasn't valuable where they lived; it was just one of the most common materials, no different from the iron that Lu Huan was familiar with.

Following the instructions, Lu Huan opened the spatial button and was stunned by the neatly arranged gold bars inside!

Looking at the nearly 40,000 jin of gold bars that filled the entire corner of the study, Lu Huan's consciousness was so excited that it almost jumped out of the space.

That's nearly 640,000 taels of gold! That's incredibly exciting!

Lu Huan felt that she would probably wake up laughing in her dreams at night.
