Xu Fan took out the small artifact mirror and started the cultivation version of an online trade.
The small artifact mirror flickered and the face of a middle-aged man appeared in the mirror.
"Fellow Daoist, what pills have you refined recently?" A middle-aged man's voice came from the Dharma artifact, sounding rather excited.
"I refined 50 bottles of middle-grade Small Spirit Pills, 50 bottles of middle-grade Body Tempering Pills, 50 bottles of middle-grade Antiseptic Pills, 20 bottles of middle-grade Heart Cleansing Pills, and 20 bottles of middle-grade Speed Spirit Pills."
"There are also 10 bottles of Water Spirit Pills and Wood Spirit Pills respectively."
Following Xu Fan's words, the middle-aged man's expression in the mirror became increasingly shocked. He knew that Xu Fan had only bought the spirit medicines two months ago. This speed was a bit heaven-defying.
"That's about it. Supervisor Li, please calculate how much these pills are worth," said Xu Fan with a smile. With this sum of money, he could start his own refining plan.
"I can offer 11,500 Spirit Stones for the 50 bottles of Small Spirit Pills, 15,000 Spirit Stones for the Body Tempering Pills, 10,000 Spirit Stones for the Antiseptic Pills, 8,000 Spirit Stones for the Heart Cleansing Pills, and 12,000 Spirit Stones for the Speed Spirit Pills."
"I'll give you 40,000 for the Water Spirit Pills and Wood Spirit Pills, which brings the total to 96,500 Spirit Stones. I'll round it up and offer you 97,000 Spirit Stones."
"Fellow Daoist, you can now upgrade your magic mirror access rights to Grade-2. There will be some new functions. Please take note."
"Okay."
"Then let us begin our trade."
"Okay."
Xu Fan took out the spirit pills he wanted to trade from his storage bag and positioned them in front of the mirror. A wave of spatial power directly absorbed all the spirit pills. Then, a bag of Spirit Stones appeared where the pills originally were.
Every time Xu Fan saw this scene, he would sigh.
This was much more impressive than shopping online. The items could be teleported directly. Unfortunately, he could only do so within the sect.
When Xu Fan was informed that this magic mirror had a teleportation function, he was stunned. The style of this world was getting weirder and weirder.
Later on, he found out that they were using the power of the sect's grand formation to form a transportation system that covered the entire sect. Once he left the Heavenly Imperial Sect, the system would be useless.
After the transaction was completed, Supervisor Li did not hang up.
"Fellow Daoist, I have a request," said Supervisor Li through the mirror, looking a little embarrassed.
"What is it?" Xu Fan asked. Although he only had a business relationship with Supervisor Li, in the past year or so, Supervisor Li had been giving him some discounts from time to time and rounding up his offer price. Thus, Xu Fan did not mind doing him a small favor.
"I have a nephew in the Qi Refinement Stage who is going to the mystic realm to train. I hope to purchase a few bottles of high-quality pills from you, fellow Daoist. I hope that you can fulfill my wish," said Supervisor Li. Based on the pills that were traded this year, Xu Fan already had the ability to refine high-quality Qi Refinement Stage spirit pills.
"I have five bottles of high-quality Small Spirit Pills, four bottles of Antiseptic Pills, six bottles of Body Tempering Pills, and three bottles of Speed Spirit Pills."
"Based on our relationship, let's see what price you can give me," Xu Fan said after thinking for a while. It was not a big deal to be able to refine high-quality medicinal pills. It was also meaningless to keep these high-grade medicinal pills in his hands.
"Speed Spirit Pills? You are really good at hiding your skills." Supervisor Li was pleasantly surprised. A high-quality Speed Spirit Pill could instantly restore half of a peak Qi Refinement Stage cultivator's spiritual power. It was the best choice for a Qi Refinement cultivator who was about to go out and fight.
"I'll offer you 20,000 Spirit Stones. Fellow Daoist, what do you think?"
"You're at a disadvantage. If you spend some time, you can collect these medicinal pills," said Xu Fan after calculating the cost silently.
"I'm not at a disadvantage. After all, everything happened so suddenly. I'll give you this price. I can't let you lose out either, right?"
"Alright then, let's trade." Xu Fan smiled and agreed.
"Okay."
The spatial power reappeared.
After the transaction, Xu Fan looked at the two bags of Spirit Stones and smiled.
"Finally, I'm no longer a homebody with no Spirit Stones in my pocket."
Right at this moment, the spiritual energy within Xu Fan's body surged. This was a sign that he was about to break through his current realm.
Xu Fan quickly returned to his room to meditate.
Two hours later, Xu Fan slowly opened his eyes.
"I haven't reached the upper limit of my current level yet. Why was I able to break through so easily?"
"Besides, my Five Elements Art research is about to succeed. When the time comes, I'll switch to a new version of the Five Elements Art. Wouldn't that be killing two birds with one stone?" Xu Fan pondered.
As Xu Fan spoke, he began to comprehend the Five Elements Art again.
Meanwhile, in a distant Holy Land, Zhang Weiyun had just finished cultivating. Just as she was about to ride her dark azure divine bird out to play, she was stopped by Supremacy Xuan Qing.
"You've only been in seclusion for three months, yet you can't stand the loneliness anymore?"
"You haven't fully grasped the Heavenly Fortune Incantation yet. Furthermore, your combat strength isn't the best among my peers. I can't even bring you out to show your face," said Supremacy Xuan Qing gently. She still had high hopes for this disciple of hers.
After all, Supremacy Xuan Qing was also a Heavenly Blessing Spirit Body. Initially, she relied on a few fortuitous encounters to slowly rise up. Originally, she, who had become the big shot of the Flying Feather World, had no worries.
However, during one of her breaks, she actually fell asleep and even had a nightmare. In her dream, she was chased by a group of demons in the Major Chiliocosm. In the end, she died miserably under the torture of the demons.
After being jolted awake, Supremacy Xuan Qing knew that her Heavenly Blessing Spirit Body was reminding her. Following that, she began frantically searching for a way to resolve this calamity. The scene in her dream was truly terrifying.
Later on, she obtained a secret technique to take in a disciple of the Heavenly Blessing Spirit Body. By teaching him with all his might, he could resolve his own calamity.
This was also the reason why she accepted Zhang Weiyun.
"That's too hard to learn. I'll go for a walk. Maybe I'll get a new insight."
"It would be even better if I could meet my husband," said Zhang Weiyun coquettishly as she hugged Supremacy Xuan Qing's arm.
Upon hearing her disciple mention his husband, a strange look flashed across Supremacy Xuan Qing's eyes. Those who could become Dao partners with the Heavenly Blessing Spirit Body were not simple figures. She wondered how brilliant her disciple's future husband would be in this world.
"You can go out for a walk, but if you want to see your husband, wait until you've fully comprehended the introductory chapter of the Heavenly Fortune Incantation."
"Alright, I'll definitely work hard."
With that said, Zhang Weiyun excitedly mounted her dark azure divine bird and flew outside.
At the Weaponry Refinement Peak in the outer sect mountain range of Heavenly Imperial Sect.
Xu Fan's heart ached as he spent 10,000 Spirit Stones to buy a set of materials for junior blacksmiths and the spirit ore materials used in the early stages. The materials came in the form of a light illusion.
"The threshold of refining weapons is much higher than refining pills. They don't even arrange for a lecturer to teach beginners," said Xu Fan gloomily. He could already be considered to have graduated from the alchemy course. He had thought that the same method would be used when he learned how to refine weapons, but this was a little unexpected.
When he returned to his small mountain, Xu Fan saw a disciple he was not familiar with appearing outside the restriction.
"Isn't this Senior Brother Brother Pang Fu? Why did he come to my shabby place?" Xu Fan looked at his chubby Senior Brother and asked.
When he studied with other cultivators in the early levels of the Qi Refinement Stage, there weren't many people that Xu Fan could remember. However, the person in front of him was one of the few he remembered.
"I heard that Senior Brother Xu was successful in refining pills, so I specially came to congratulate you," said Pang Fu amiably as he piled up his double chin. He even took out 50 Spirit Stones from his storage bag as a congratulatory gift.
"Oh, then thank you, Senior Brother Pang Fu. I appreciate your kindness. Take the Senior Brother back."
"In the outer sect, we are all freelance cultivators who have no one to rely on. Every single one of our Spirit Stones will be used in the most crucial places.
A strange look flashed across Xu Fan's eyes. This fatty was quite generous.
