Fields of Spirit Plants connected like terraces between the mountains, some fields growing Spirit Rice, others growing Spiritual Medicine, or other Spirit Plants.
As Su Yu walked along, he observed that the spirit fields and the spirit rice or spiritual medicine cultivated in the market were better than those in the Su Family’s medicinal garden.
Looking at Su Yu’s curiosity, Su Jingbang said, “These spirit fields can be rented.”
“Most of the cultivators who stay in this market-town rely on these spirit fields for a living.”
“However, such a life ultimately depends on others. The rent for the spirit fields is essentially equivalent to farming for the Yunjian Sect.”
He paused.
Su Jingbang sighed, “Our ancestors from the Su Family laid our first foundation here in this market-town.”
“Afterwards, they moved to River City, established a garden there, and gradually accumulated what is now our family estate.”
Su Yu and the other family members were somewhat moved by this.
From a loose cultivator settling down to a cultivating family, the hardships involved are difficult to imagine for ordinary people.
Even though the Su Family is still weak at this point.
But this was already the result of the efforts of over a dozen generations.
Su Jingbang looked at Su Yu and said, “If you don’t want to stay in the medicinal garden in the future, it would be nice to try and come here.”
“With the base of the Pill Pavilion here, practicing your cultivation in this place is definitely better than those average loose cultivators.”
While talking, they walked toward the center of the market-town.
On the way, they could see other cultivators coming in and out. They could also see cultivators performing spells to take care of the Spirit Plants in the spirit fields.
In a mountain valley, the center of Yumshan market-town was located here. Between the mountains, clouds and mist coiled, and cultivators in white flew by, presenting a picturesque scene of Immortals.
The Su Family’s Pill Pavilion was situated in the center of the third main street on the eastern side of the market, where the flow of people was quite large.
The Pill Pavilion was run by the Second Elder of the Su Family, Su Yun, a first-grade top-tier alchemist, who was solitary and reticent.
Upon entering the Pill Pavilion and meeting Su Yun, Su Yu and others bowed respectfully, but Su Yun didn’t even glance at them, his gaze was only on Su Jingbang.
Su Jingbang took out two Qiankun rings and handed them to Su Yun, saying, “Second Elder, these are this month’s batch of spiritual medicine.”
Su Yun checked with his Divine Sense, frowned, and said displeased, “The quality is still so poor.”
Su Jingbang smiled and said, “Actually, it’s a little better than before.”
Originally, Su Yu wanted to rub up friendship with Su Yun so that he could become an alchemist under the tutelage of the Second Elder in the future. But after receiving the spiritual medicine, Su Yun waved his hand to let Su Jingbang and the others go and returned to the backyard of the Pill Pavilion on his own.
Su Jingbang and the others were used to this. He looked at Su Yu and said, “Alright, now you have free time.”
“Stay in the Pill Pavilion tonight and return tomorrow afternoon.”
Seeing Su Yu blinking at him, Su Jingbang touched his bald head, murmured with some annoyance, “Alright, I had planned to have a rest—I’ll take you around the market-town.”
Immediately, a smile appeared on Su Yu’s face, “Ah, that’s great. I will treat you to fine wine tonight.”
The others laughed and dispersed, not bothering to intrude on their conversation.
The two men walked out of the Pill Pavilion and started strolling around the market-town under the lead of Su Jingbang.
Most of the market-town was occupied by shops, and there were also areas specifically set up for loose cultivators to set up stalls.
Su Jingbang asked, “What do you want to buy?”
Su Yu pondered for a moment, then said, “Resources for cultivation, such as monster beast’essence, and also looking for something strange and cheap.”
Su Jingbang thought for a moment and said, “Buying monster beast’s essence is easy, but strange and cheap things… your interests are quite unusual.”
“Come with me, there’s a place you should find suitable.”
Su Yu followed Su Jingbang into a three-storey wooden building on the northern side of the market. Su Yu was surprised when he looked at the nameplate on the building.
“Heavenly Book Pavilion?” Su Yu was stunned for a moment.
This name—
It was quite familiar to him, just like the Bai Yue Immortal City, it existed in an immortal game that he used to play in his past life.
The Pavilion specialized in selling all sorts of odd things, but they were all connected to ancient jade boxes.
Heavenly Book Pavilion collected ancient jade boxes from various places, either opening them themselves, or selling them. They also purchased items that customers had taken from ancient jade boxes for resale.
Therefore, the operation of the Heavenly Book Pavilion was rather peculiar, or mysterious.
Previously in the game, the products sold by the Heavenly Book Pavilion were all of unknown properties. Whether it was a treasure or junk entirely depended on luck.
Such a place was indeed a gold-consuming beast.
Su Yu didn’t expect to see the existence of the Heavenly Book Pavilion in Yunshan market-town.
“What are you daydreaming about? Let’s go in and take a look,” Su Jingbang awakened Su Yu, and the two entered the Heavenly Book Pavilion.
The Heavenly Book Pavilion was divided into many areas, the most conspicuous one was the selling of the ancient jade boxes.
Even though these items were quite deceiving.
But upon entering Heavenly Book Pavilion, Su Yu saw that the most crowded place was there.
Su Yu smirked, in his heart cursing the gambling addicts.
His goal was clear, after knowing it was the Heavenly Book Pavilion, he looked around for a moment and then headed for an area labeled “Ancient Books”.
Su Jingbang looked at him and said, “I’ll look around, just call me when we’re leaving.”
Su Yu waved back at him and quickly walked to a bookshelf, where he began looking through the books. Most of them were only partial, not complete. If you want a complete one, you have to buy it.
What he was looking for was a kind of Cultivation Technique similar to the “Crocodile Demon 108 Physical Training Techniques”.
Other people may have difficulty cultivating, or not be able to cultivate it at all.
But its power was not small.
Such techniques meant little to others but meant a treasure to him.
“The Legend of Wushan.”
“The Sixty-Eight Monsters of Guanhai”.Read lat𝙚st chapters at nov(𝒆)lbin.com Only
“The Demon King of Cangzhou”.
…
Su Yu flipped through the books one by one, most of which were just stories, biographies, and the like. There were also some techniques and spells, but they were severely incomplete and of no use at all.
More than an hour passed, and amongst a pile of ancient books on the third bookshelf, Su Yu opened a book, his brow twitched.
“Green Wood Year Ring Skill.”
The name was a little odd. As he read on, Su Yu suddenly realized.
This was a wood attribute Immortal cultivation technique.
It was rumored that there was an ancient tree called Green Wood in the Immortal Realm during the ancient era. The tree was rooted in Heavenly Dao and reached under into the cycle of reincarnation.
A year, a rotation, a rotation, a reincarnation.
This was an amazing skill based on the essence of Green Wood. If cultivated successfully, it would have the potential of immortality.
However—
This thing actually required the primordial essence of the Green Wood for foundation establishment!
Moreover, on this ancient book, there were many records of people’s research, including the legendary character of the Yunjian Sect in the past, and even True Man Bai Yue of Bai Yue Immortal City had studied it.
But without exception, none of them could understand it.
Things like this were not uncommon, for example, “Crocodile Demon 108 Physical Training Techniques”. This body refining technique was actually quite strong.
But having passed down for so many years, not a single person had been able to master it.
For other cultivators, isn’t that just waste or even trash?
Su Yu didn’t know whether he could cultivate it or not, but looking at it, he was indeed tempted: “This is a good thing.”
However, he continued reading.
There wouldn’t be a lack of items like “Green Wood Year Ring Skill”, especially in a place like Heavenly Book Pavilion.
