After a short while, Qin San Niang entered with an old woman with gray hair. As soon as the old woman came in, her eyes fell on the box on the table. "Granny Lan, we need you to take a look at this spiritual herb." Zhang Ling glanced at the old woman, who also possessed the fifth level of Qi Refining cultivation. However, the beautiful woman was very respectful to her, indicating her high status. The old woman didn't say a word after entering, grabbing the wooden box and sniffing it carefully. She took out a silver needle from her bosom, pricked the spiritual herb, and then put the silver needle into her mouth, sensing it carefully. After a few breaths, the old woman opened her eyes. "Third, this Spirit Gathering Grass already has more than five hundred years of medicinal power and can be regarded as a treasure." After saying that, the old woman gently put down the box and walked out on her own. "Thank you for your trouble, Granny Lan." "Fellow Daoist has such a precious spiritual herb, truly blessed." The beautiful woman watched the old woman leave, smiling sweetly. "Haha, Fellow Daoist is laughing at me. I was just lucky to have accidentally obtained this spiritual herb in a deep mountain forest in my early years. Only today did I know that this spiritual herb has grown to five hundred years. I wonder what its price is." Zhang Ling also changed his previous silence, laughing heartily as if he cared about the price of the spiritual herb.
"Fellow Daoist Wang, rest assured, my Tianyu Pavilion will take this Spirit Gathering Grass. As for the price, let's say nine hundred spirit stones. After all, Spirit Gathering Grass is very common, just an ordinary second-grade spiritual herb. Although the age is amazing, its use is limited. I wonder what Fellow Daoist thinks." Zhang Ling, because he had the mysterious little bead, had some research on spiritual herbs, but he had no concept of the value of finished spiritual herbs. For a time, he didn't know the true value of this spiritual herb. However, he was delighted that he could exchange it for nine hundred spirit stones. Just as he was frowning and thinking, the beautiful woman hesitated. She touched the hair on her forehead, gritted her teeth, and took out a yellow gourd. This gourd was very large, about the height of a three or four-year-old child. For a moment, Zhang Ling didn't know what this woman meant, but he saw the beautiful woman push the gourd in front of him. "Inside is a gourd of Cold Star Sand, worth about a hundred spirit stones. It can be used to replenish the consumption of the Wind and Sand Gourd. Enough for Fellow Daoist to use hundreds of times. This item can be regarded as a bonus gift to Fellow Daoist." "Haha, that's great. Then it's settled according to what Fellow Daoist said, nine hundred spirit stones." Zhang Ling waved his hand, and the three magical artifacts were put into his storage bag. The beautiful woman also put away the Spirit Gathering Grass. "Fellow Daoist, it seems you also need spirit talismans. I happen to have brought some." The beautiful woman's gaze at him became more and more intense, giggling as she took out various styles of spirit talismans. "Spirit talismans have many uses, including attack, defense, and sealing types. There are also special talismans such as flying and escaping." Zhang Ling stayed in Tianyu Pavilion for more than half an hour, selecting spirit talismans. Although the spirit talismans he chose were commonly used by Qi Refining cultivators, in the end, these spirit talismans were worth more than three hundred spirit stones, making his heart ache. The attack-type Five Elements Talismans cost one spirit stone each, but the value of defensive spirit talismans was much higher. Among them, a kind of metal-attribute defensive spirit talisman, the Vajra Talisman, was worth more than ten spirit stones each. He also bought two. As for special spirit talismans, he naturally selected some, among which the most valuable were two kinds of spirit talismans. A Flying Talisman was worth seventy spirit stones, and a Earth Penetration Talisman was also sixty-five spirit stones. These two kinds of spirit talismans could fly into the sky and escape into the ground and were life-saving spirit talismans. Zhang Ling left Tianyu Pavilion without looking back. This time, buying magical artifacts and spirit talismans cost a total of more than one thousand five hundred spirit stones. A consumption of thousands of spirit stones at once was rare even for ordinary family disciples and sect cultivators. However, these things would later become part of his strength. After returning to the cave, Zhang Ling began to refine these magical artifacts. Magical artifacts are commonly used by cultivators. Ordinary magical artifacts do not have the function of recognizing their owner. As long as they are marked with a divine sense imprint, they can be controlled by cultivators. Refining magical artifacts is to engrave a divine sense imprint on the magical artifact. It took him two days to refine all three magical artifacts.
In the following days, he familiarized himself with the power of these magical artifacts around the cave. …… A month later, Zhang Ling left the cave. He first went around a few shops, bought a map of the Falling Star Mountain Range and information about the demon beasts, and after preparing everything, he left Falling Star City. He had been in Falling Star City for more than three years, either refining pills or cultivating diligently. He bought a few magical artifacts, and his strength greatly increased, but he had not fought with other cultivators, and he did not have a clear understanding of his strength. This time, he went out of the city to hunt demon beasts to test his strength. So as not to have only cultivation but no strength. The Falling Star Mountain Range is very large, far beyond the imagination of mortals, and the terrain in the mountain range is complex. Valleys, rivers, lakes, and other areas can be found in the mountain range. Among them, demon beasts and poisonous insects are rampant, and many cultivators enter every year to find cultivation resources. But only a small number of them have gains, and some cultivators disappear forever in the mountains. Two days later, Zhang Ling came to a valley. This valley was not big, but countless white rocks like monster teeth stood in the valley. The reason for coming here was that half an hour ago, he chased a Black Rock Snake demon beast to this place. The Black Rock Snake is a first-order late-stage demon beast, and its strength is comparable to that of cultivators at the eighth or ninth level of Qi Refining. After entering this valley, it disappeared. After searching for more than half an hour, there was no trace of it. In the past two days, he had been going deep into the Falling Star Mountain Range, and he had encountered some demon beasts, but their strength was very weak, and he could solve them without using magical artifacts. Only the Black Rock Snake he encountered today was not weak, and he fought with it for a while. Zhang Ling couldn't help but feel extremely depressed. Looking at the gray and white stones of different sizes next to him, Zhang Ling stopped. He had been in this valley for a long time, and he had not even encountered an animal. He felt that something was wrong here. After thinking about it, Zhang Ling decided to leave here. However, after walking not far, a white mist rose around him at some point. Zhang Ling didn't dare to be careless, patted his storage bag, took out a cyan pill and held it in his mouth. This was a Refreshing Pill, which could restrain poisonous mist and clear the mind. Suddenly, he heard a sound of breaking through the air in the mist. Zhang Ling's face changed. Although the mist obscured his vision, his divine sense was not greatly affected. Under the induction of his divine sense, there were many flying insects in the mist. The main body of this flying insect was yellow-black, and its long, strip-shaped body had a pair of transparent wings. Each one was as long as an arm. Like a large mosquito. Zhang Ling quickly controlled the Wind and Sand Gourd, spewing out a ball of Cold Star Sand to surround himself, and quickly rushed towards the mouth of the valley. The flying insects in the mist also found him, vibrating their wings and making a buzzing sound. However, they were all shot down by the Cold Star Sand, but the number of flying insects was amazing, and there was no sign of decreasing, but instead, they were increasing. In the fast-moving Zhang Ling, his divine sense discovered a new situation. In addition to the flying insects, there were also bursts of breaking through the air in the mist. Under the concentration of his divine sense, he discovered another kind of demon beast in the mist. A toad covered with colorful bumps. Each one was half a person tall, with their mouths open, and scarlet tongues protruding, like long whips, rolling back and forth in the mist. Every attack would roll up several flying insects. This is the Colorful Poison Toad, a first-order middle-grade demon beast. Its own strength is not strong, but it can spit out highly poisonous poison and is a gregarious demon beast. Unexpectedly, he encountered this kind of demon beast preying. In a few breaths, Zhang Ling had already discovered five or six giant Colorful Poison Toads. They were all busy preying on flying insects. Seeing this scene, Zhang Ling breathed a sigh of relief. He put away the magical artifact and took out a cyan talisman from his storage bag. With a flash of spiritual light, the spirit talisman was patted on his body. The next moment, his body was like a wave, gradually fading and disappearing. This is an Invisibility Talisman, a special kind of spirit talisman, which costs ten spirit stones each. But it can play a role in hiding the body.
