The first thing Aksai did after his battle in the barren land was to sort through the artifacts and other cultivation resources he had obtained from his attackers.
He kept what he needed and discreetly sold the rest in the markets of White Mountain City, carefully protecting his identity.
Aksai earned about 800 spirit stones from selling the items he had taken from the seven Spirit Refining Perfectionists he had defeated. He decided to spend them immediately to secure accommodation within the city.
He paid 500 spirit stones to rent a simple villa with a courtyard in White Mountain's outer zone for five years.
Over the next few weeks, Aksai gathered information about various aspects of the city and browsed through the markets to acquire the crucial cultivation resources he needed.
