Transmigration: A person in a martial arts world, cultivating to ascend to immortality

Jiang Xiaochuan readily agreed to the proposal to auction off the Wood Spirit Pill without hesitation.

He agreed so readily not because the auction would bring him more money, but because he wanted to experience the entire auction process firsthand.

Seeing Jiang Xiaochuan agree so readily, Elder Wan smiled broadly, his face crinkling with wrinkles: "Auctioning top-grade pills is no ordinary event, so it may take some time to prepare. Our Chamber of Commerce can use this time to spread the news and attract more buyers. I wonder if Young Master Jiang would be willing to accept?"

"How long will it take to prepare?" Jiang Xiaochuan asked.

"It will take at least a month."

Seeing Jiang Xiaochuan's brows furrow unconsciously, Elder Wan quickly asked, "Young Master Jiang, is there something troubling you?"

Jiang Xiaochuan sighed, "As the saying goes, even a hero can be brought down by a penny. If I weren't short of money, I wouldn't have chosen to sell this Wood Spirit Pill!"

Elder Wan breathed a sigh of relief and replied with a smile, "Money is no problem! Since Young Master Jiang has chosen to auction this Wood Spirit Pill at our Wan Jin Chamber of Commerce, our Chamber of Commerce should naturally show sufficient sincerity! Regardless of the final price of the Wood Spirit Pill, we can provide Young Master Jiang with 10,000 gold coins in advance for his expenses during this period. What does Young Master Jiang think?"

"Very good! Very good!"

Jiang Xiaochuan clapped his hands in praise and said to Old Wan, "You old man, you're quite savvy!"

Despite Jiang Xiaochuan's disrespectful address, Elder Wan was not offended; instead, he laughed along and then tentatively asked:

"Young Master Jiang, may I ask who produced this Wood Spirit Pill?"

"It was made by an elder in my family."

Jiang Xiaochuan replied while taking big bites of his snacks.

"The elders in the family!!"

Mr. Wan was greatly shocked.

Judging from this, this young master Jiang is no ordinary person!

Given his extraordinary background and inexperience, the Wan Jin Chamber of Commerce naturally wanted to win him over.

Immediately, Elder Wan took out an oval-shaped token made of pure gold with the two large characters 'Wan Jin' engraved on it from his pocket and handed it to Jiang Xiaochuan.

"This token signifies your VIP status with the Wan Jin Chamber of Commerce. When Young Master Jiang visits our Chamber next time, simply present this token, and you will receive the highest level of treatment! You will enjoy a discount on everything you purchase!"

Why wouldn't you take advantage of a freebie offered to you?

Jiang Xiaochuan accepted the token without hesitation and put it in his pocket.

After finishing all the snacks and fruits on the table, Jiang Xiaochuan got up and left.

Elder Wan personally saw Jiang Xiaochuan off from the Chamber of Commerce and thoughtfully gave him 10,000 gold coins converted into dozens of silver notes of varying denominations.

With these ten thousand gold and silver notes, Jiang Xiaochuan had nothing to worry about anymore and immediately took Xiaoqing to continue strolling around Yaoguang City.

As for the specific auction time of the Wood Spirit Pill, the Wan Jin Chamber of Commerce will naturally send someone to inform him at that time.

With a large sum of money in hand, Xiaoqing was in a particularly good mood. Suddenly remembering that Jiang Xiaochuan was going to attend a wedding banquet at the Zhuge family in a few days, she said:

"You promised that kid you'd attend his second brother's wedding banquet, you can't go empty-handed, can you?"

"right!"

Jiang Xiaochuan completely forgot about this matter and then asked Xiaoqing, "Then what do you think we should send? The Zhuge family seems to have a pretty high status in Yaoguang City. Buying just some random things might not be appropriate."

"Can you draw talismans?"

Xiaoqing remembered Zhuge Jingxing's previous guess about Jiang Xiaochuan's identity as a talisman cultivator, which is why she asked that question.

Jiang Xiaochuan nodded and replied, "I can. It's just that I've never tried it before."

He was created by Jiang Yuchuan using supernatural and secret techniques, and naturally inherited some of Jiang Yuchuan's abilities.

"That'll be easy!"

Xiaoqing said, "Since there's still time, why don't you buy some talisman-drawing tools in the city, draw a few yourself, and then bring them over yourself?"

Using talismans as gifts is a good choice.

Jiang Xiaochuan immediately nodded in agreement and began searching for shops in the city that sold talisman-drawing tools.

The shop was found, but to Jiang Xiaochuan's surprise, the paper, brush, and ink used to draw talismans could not be purchased with silver notes and could only be purchased with spirit stones.

Yuan Stone is another name for spirit stones in the Tianque Continent.

If it were just for gifting, Jiang Xiaochuan wouldn't have used the two hundred low-grade spirit stones that Jiang Yuchuan had specially put into his storage bracelet before he went down the mountain.

However, he also wanted to study the art of talismans properly, so he spent ten low-grade spirit stones to buy a complete set of talisman-drawing tools and one hundred high-grade talisman papers.

Seeing Jiang Xiaochuan walk out of the shop with a pained expression, Xiaoqing said, "It's just ten spirit stones, why do you have to make such a face that looks worse than crying?"

"What do you know!"

Jiang Xiaochuan clutched his chest and said, "I only have about two hundred spirit stones in total! — Oh, no, I only have one hundred and ninety left! Spirit stones are not like silver notes; once you spend one, you have one less!"

"--fool!"

Xiaoqing rolled her eyes again. "I really don't understand, how could such a smart master create such a stupid and clumsy person like you!"

Jiang Xiaochuan, looking unconvinced, retorted confidently, "I was originally transformed from a wooden vine. So what if I'm a little slow-witted!"

"..."

Xiaoqing was speechless for a moment, and finally gave up arguing with Jiang Xiaochuan. "Since the tools for drawing talismans need to be purchased with spirit stones, can the Wood Spirit Pills you consigned to the Wan Jin Chamber of Commerce be auctioned with gold and silver?"

"Yup!"

Jiang Xiaochuan's eyes lit up, and he clapped his hands, saying, "Top-grade pills are nothing compared to these mundane things! I'll be rolling in spirit stones then!"

Thinking of this, my previous depressed mood vanished completely.

"It seems that besides drawing talismans, alchemy is also a very promising art!"

Hearing Jiang Xiaochuan's mutterings, Xiaoqing couldn't help but roll her eyes again. "Remember this: Don't bite off more than you can chew! Do you think you're the owner?!"

"Tch!" Jiang Xiaochuan curled his lip. "What do you know? Our relationship isn't as simple as you think."

It's getting late.

Jiang Xiaochuan found a nearby inn to stay in.

After entering the guest room, he did not rest immediately. Instead, he took out all his talisman-drawing tools, spread them out on the table, and began to try drawing talismans according to the steps Jiang Yuchuan remembered from his memory.

Xiaoqing and Xiaogu took over the entire bed and fell fast asleep.

After failing more than a dozen times in a row, Jiang Xiaochuan finally grasped a little of the trick.

Just as his talisman was about to be completed, the candle on the table suddenly went out without any wind.

At the same time, Xiaoqing and Xiaogu woke up at the same time and looked out the window.

The extinguishing of the candlelight caused Jiang Xiaochuan to be briefly distracted, which led to the talisman he was drawing spontaneously combusting again and turning to ashes.

"Damn it! Of all times to come, now of all times! Even if the King of Heaven himself came today, he couldn't save you!"

Before he finished speaking, Jiang Xiaochuan, who was sitting on the stool, transformed into a streak of green light and flew out of the window.
