So, the current Su Yan.
Perhaps when she sees me again.
The feelings in her heart are no longer as pure as they once were.
Whether it's He Song.
Or Su Yan.
After so many years, their mentalities and status have completely changed from before.
"Brother Song, it's really you. I thought I was seeing things."
Hearing He Song call out her name, Su Yan's face lit up with joy, and she quickly ran to He Song's side, looking him over.
It was as if she wanted to see what changes He Song had undergone after so many years.
"You weren't seeing things. But this place is noisy. Come, let's go to a teahouse for a chat."
Waving his hand, He Song scanned his surroundings.
He quickly spotted a teahouse.
Signaling Su Yan to follow, he casually replied to her.
It just so happened that He Song had just entered the city and hadn't had time to purchase the various items he needed.
Therefore, he could take this opportunity to catch up with Su Yan, whom he hadn't seen in a long time.
Nearby.
Seeing He Song heading towards the teahouse and signaling for her to follow.
A smile flashed across Su Yan's face, and she quickly followed.
Inside the teahouse.
He Song casually booked a private room and led Su Yan into it, one after the other.
Once the tea was served.
The two quickly began to chat about their experiences over the years.
And when they talked about He Song sending her a message several years ago, telling her to flee Bamboo Mountain Immortal Market.
On Su Yan's face.
A look of lingering fear appeared.
"After you left Bamboo Mountain Immortal Market last time, did you come here?"
Looking at Su Yan in front of him, He Song casually asked about her recent situation.
He Song hadn't learned much about Su Yan's affairs over the years.
He had just broken through to the Foundation Establishment stage and was working hard to improve his combat power.
He didn't have time to worry about such trivial matters.
Moreover, Su Yan hadn't informed him of these things.
Naturally, he didn't know much about Su Yan's recent situation.
"Yes. It's all thanks to Brother Song's warning back then. Otherwise, Yan'er might have died in that great calamity."
"Yan'er thanks Brother Song."
Faced with He Song's question, Su Yan said, and she didn't forget to give He Song a proper bow to show her gratitude.
Back then, if it hadn't been for He Song's message.
She might have really died in Bamboo Mountain Immortal Market.
Naturally, seeing He Song again now, Su Yan would also thank him in person.
"By the way, Brother Song, you must have something to do this time in the city. Can you tell me about it?"
"Yan'er is now very familiar with this Green Wall Immortal City. I can help with anything you need to do."
Seeming to feel that a verbal thank you was too pale, Su Yan thought about it and decided to use practical actions to show her gratitude.
Regarding this.
He Song pondered for a moment.
A thought stirred in his heart.
Although he was familiar with Green Wall Immortal City, he really didn't know which shops sold the various puppet-making materials he needed to buy.
As such, it would be better to let Su Yan tell him where he could find precious materials, saving him the trouble of asking around at each shop.
Thinking of this.
He Song immediately nodded.
"Then I thank Yan'er. I need to buy some materials this time."
"The list of materials is also here. Take a look and see which shop in the city I can find them at."
Saying this, He Song took out a thin sheet of paper from his storage pouch.
Spiritual power surged from his fingertips, and he quickly left a series of material names related to the art of puppet-making on the paper.
"Green Spirit Water, Dark God Crystal, Ink True Copper, Black True Silk..."
A dense list of material names was imprinted on the thin paper by He Song.
Handing the paper to Su Yan, a strange light flashed in He Song's eyes.
He Song didn't hide anything on this paper.
The materials for making Foundation Establishment stage puppets were valuable.
Even if Su Yan memorized these materials, she wouldn't be able to replicate He Song's actions of buying these materials and refining them into puppets.
Without the Spirit Puppet Technique, these materials were just materials.
Even if other puppet techniques were used, nothing could be refined from these materials.
As such, it was better to list the materials here and let Su Yan, who had lived in Green Wall Immortal City for a long time and knew it like the back of her hand, take a look.
Perhaps she could save him some time and point him in the right direction.
Of course.
Su Yan could only point the way.
The subsequent purchase could only be handled by He Song himself.
If He Song really let Su Yan go and buy them, it might bring her fatal disaster.
Although He Song would definitely choose to follow.
But after He Song left.
What would Su Yan, who was only at the ninth level of Qi Condensation, face?.
He Song didn't even need to think to know how miserable Su Yan would be then.
Therefore, He Song naturally couldn't push Su Yan into the fire pit.
Even if it was an ordinary person he didn't know, He Song wouldn't let them suffer this.
It wasn't necessary.
And it was too cruel.
Taking the paper He Song handed over.
Su Yan lowered her head and looked.
She was quickly attracted by the various materials listed on the paper.
After a long time.
After scanning all the materials on the paper, Su Yan raised her head and looked at He Song.
"There are many materials here that Yan'er has never heard of. They must be quite precious. If Brother Song wants to find them, you can go to the Treasure Gathering Pavilion in the city."
"The Treasure Gathering Pavilion has branches in all the major immortal cities and should be able to meet Brother Song's requirements."
"Even if the Treasure Gathering Pavilion here doesn't have them, they can be transferred from other branches. They should be able to be gathered quickly."
"As for the other shops, I don't think they have these things. Brother Song doesn't need to waste time."
Returning the paper in her hand to He Song, Su Yan's small face was slightly red, feeling that she hadn't been able to help much, and a trace of disappointment arose in her heart.
But she didn't know.
With her words, He Song had already avoided many detours.
He Song had naturally heard of the Treasure Gathering Pavilion.
In the Treasure Gathering Pavilion's auctions held once every three years, Foundation Establishment Pills would occasionally appear.
Although the timing of this "occasionally" was uncertain, sometimes it was more than ten or twenty years apart, sometimes decades.
But it always gave wandering cultivators some hope.
And the great name of the Treasure Gathering Pavilion was also spread around, known to countless cultivators.
Previously, He Song.
It was just because he had never been to the Treasure Gathering Pavilion that he had forgotten about it.
Remembering it now saved him a lot of trouble.
"Then thank you very much, Yan'er."
After thanking Su Yan, He Song nodded to her.
He then took out a few bottles of Qi Condensation Pills used by late-stage Qi Condensation cultivators to improve their cultivation from his storage pouch.
These few bottles of Qi Condensation Pills were worth hundreds of spirit stones.
They were considered a thank-you gift for Su Yan's help this time.
For Su Yan, this gift was something she could keep, and it was also the best gift He Song could give her.
Something too valuable.
With her strength at the ninth level of Qi Condensation, she probably wouldn't be able to keep it.
It might even bring her fatal disaster.
After using these pills as his thank-you gift.
He Song took his leave.
The following matters.
Su Yan could no longer participate, and He Song didn't want to involve her.
Saying goodbye here was good for both of them.
He Song left alone.
He quickly went to an inn, and after spending ten spirit stones to rent a room for ten days.
He changed his appearance in the room, and used his Breath Concealment Technique to disguise his cultivation as Great Perfection of Qi Condensation.
Only then did he put on a black robe and leave the inn.
He Song, who had changed his appearance, believed that no one in this Green Wall Immortal City would be able to recognize him.
Thus, he walked all the way to the Treasure Gathering Pavilion.
Because He Song's cultivation level was currently revealed to be the Great Perfection of Qi Condensation, after entering the Treasure Gathering Pavilion, he was quickly led into a VIP room.
Inside the VIP room.
"I am Jiang Fei. May I ask this fellow Daoist's name?"
After leading He Song into the VIP room, Jiang Fei, whose cultivation was at the ninth level of Qi Condensation and whose eyes were full of good fortune, immediately asked.
In his opinion, with He Song's current cultivation at the Great Perfection of Qi Condensation.
He might be a big customer.
Naturally, his attitude towards He Song was also quite good.
"I am wandering cultivator Chen Zhou. I came to your esteemed place to purchase some materials. Please take a look."
Faced with Jiang Fei's question, He Song casually gave the name Chen Zhou.
Chen Zhou.
Decades ago, He Song had asked Wei Fan to kill him.
Using this person's name, there was no need to worry about his identity being discovered by others, and there was no need to worry about these people investigating Chen Zhou.
A person who had been dead for decades.
No matter how much they investigated, what could they find?.
At the same time as he gave his name, He Song also handed over the paper in his hand to Jiang Fei.
He Song hadn't deliberately added or subtracted any materials on this paper.
It was still the same as when he showed it to Su Yan, without any changes.
Although these materials were precious, they were all materials for refining puppets.
Even if this Jiang Fei, or the Treasure Gathering Pavilion, knew that He Song was buying these materials to refine puppets, they wouldn't have any ideas about these materials.
It was like cooking.
You buy some spareribs.
Who knows if you bought the spareribs to make sweet and sour spareribs, stewed spareribs, braised spareribs, or sparerib soup?.
Without the Spirit Puppet Technique, even if this Jiang Fei, or the Treasure Gathering Pavilion, took out the exact same materials, they wouldn't be able to refine spirit puppets.
He Song wasn't worried about this at all.
Rather than worrying about this, it was better to make fewer trips and collect these materials here.
And because of this.
After seeing the paper He Song handed over, Jiang Fei quickly began to quote prices.
Foundation Establishment stage spirit puppets.
The materials required, except for some internal materials that were not particularly precious, the rest.
Such as the weapons used for attack, the defense of the body, etc., all required extremely tough and strong materials to be refined.
These materials, which could at least withstand the attacks of Foundation Establishment cultivators or pose a threat to True Persons of Foundation Establishment, were naturally not cheap.
In Jiang Fei's repeated quotes.
The spirit stones in He Song's storage pouch gradually decreased.
But fortunately, He Song had a lot of spirit stones. Under his constant accumulation and consumption, he still had more than 100,000.
Although he had also used many spirit stones over the years.
But before he left the Earth Sect's mountain gate, he could harvest more than 10,000, almost 20,000 spirit stones every year.
Under such circumstances, he stayed in the Earth Sect's mountain gate for a full ten years.
In addition to some spirit stones that he had left over, if He Song had saved all his spirit stones, he would probably have more than 200,000.
In recent years, he had just broken through to Foundation Establishment, and his consumption was very large.
Therefore, he only had a deposit of more than 100,000 spirit stones left.
But even so.
More than 100,000 spirit stones were enough to support his current consumption.
Although the materials for making spirit puppets were precious, the spirit puppets He Song wanted to make were not very large, only the size of ordinary people, not special spirit puppets.
The spirit stones spent on materials were not particularly terrifying.
Spending nearly 20,000 spirit stones, He Song had already bought enough materials for him to make a spirit puppet.
But.
He Song didn't stop purchasing.
