Chapter 75 - Taiwu Prefecture
Although Shen Xiang looked somewhat good-looking, he was dressed very plainly and did not carry any ornaments that could show his wealth, so he looked shabby.
"Do you know how much the Taiwu Sect costs? One year makes you defeated." Zhu Rong bristled, but he suddenly heard a "click" sound, like someone biting into a fruit.
Zhu Rong was already a tasty person, he immediately turned his head to see Shen Xiang holding a purple fruit in his hand, biting and eating it, and also spitting out some of the skin.
Zhu Rong instantly froze, then shouted: "Idiot, purple spirit fruit is so used? Hurry up and shut up! You motherfucker, these skins are worth old money, you actually spit out ..."
Purple spirit fruit is the main medicinal material for refining true qi pills, using it as fruit to eat is simply a waste, after Zhu Rong saw it, he wanted to give Shen Xiang two slaps, in his opinion, eating purple spirit fruit directly is the desecration of the purple spirit fruit!
Shen Xiang looked unconcerned: "The taste of this purple spirit fruit is very good, sweet, and a lot of true qi will appear in the body after eating it."
Zhu Rong that fat face is red with anger, although the purple spirit fruit is not his, but he looks at it with heartache.
"Don't eat it, I'll buy it." Zhu Rong hurriedly shouted, the words just finished, Shen Xiang swallowed it in three times, Zhu Rong could not wait to rush up and knock Shen Xiang's jaw off!
"How much does it cost to enter the Tai Mo Sect for a year?" Shen Xiang asked with a smile.
Zhu Rong stomped his foot and grunted in anger, "Guys like you will never be able to enter the Tai Mo Sect." Although he didn't know what Shen Xiang's status was, he was sure that Shen Xiang was rich as hell, otherwise he wouldn't have casually eaten a Purple Spirit Fruit.
"Forget it then, I'll ask myself." Shen Xiang said, and took out another Purple Spirit Fruit, ready to eat it.
"An outer disciple's year is three thousand medium grade crystals." Zhu Rong hurriedly said, then took out a few thumb-sized blue stones and handed them to Shen Xiang: "Ten medium grade crystals to buy your purple spirit fruit."
Crystal stones, like spirit money, are a kind of ore that contains spirit energy, except that crystal stones have more pure spirit energy compressed inside, so they are better than spirit money.
Shen Xiang learned from Su Meiyao that medium grade crystals are mainly used as the transaction currency in this world, one medium grade crystal is equivalent to one thousand big spiritual stones, ten of them, that is ten thousand big spiritual money.
10,000 big spirit money to buy purple spirit fruit, this fatty clearly wants to blacken Shen Xiang.
"Brother Zhu, do you think I'm a pig? This is the main material for refining True Qi Pills, and it's worth this much? I might as well eat it myself." Shen Xiang bristled and said.
"Thirty!" Zhu Rong said without changing his face.
Shen Xiang shook his head and walked towards the front, Zhu Rong hurriedly followed and shouted, "Fifty!"
Shen Xiang ignored him.
"Sixty!"
"One hundred!"
"One hundred and fifty!"
"..."
"Two hundred!"
Shen Xiang turned around and laughed: "Just now you wanted ten crystals to buy it, but now it's many times more than just now, you are really a treacherous merchant." Shen Xiang handed over the purple spirit fruit and received the pile of crystals.
"You don't know, our Zhu family is a famous business family in Taiwu state, we have fallen into the eyes of money since we were young, no way." Zhu Rong looked at the purple spirit fruit and said honestly, "The price of the purple spirit fruit is inflated, it is all raised by those merchants."
Shen Xiang suddenly felt that he might have lost money, but 200,000 big spirit money was also his bottom line.
Although Zhu Rong was a small treacherous merchant, Shen Xiang and him had a good chat and had a clearer understanding of the world here, now he was in the "Taiwu State", a large area of land under the jurisdiction of the Taiwu Sect, which was very vast, and all the forces on it had to make offerings to the Taiwu Sect, which also maintained the security of the land.
"Elder brother Shen, in the future, you don't want to do something as idiotic as eating purple spirit fruit, if it is seen by that group of alchemists, you will definitely be mobbed." Zhu Rong admonished, thinking of Shen Xiang swallowing one just now, his heart was secretly aching.
Shen Xiang did not care, he had the Dragon Saliva Kung Fu, if the Purple Spirit Fruit was used up, he could still quickly catalyze it.
"Old Zhu, do you think there is still a chance for me to enter the Taiwu Sect now?" Shen Xiang laughed.
Zhu Rong smiled wickedly and said, "Sell me another ten or so Purple Spirit Fruits and you will have a chance, but you have to pass the Taiwu Sect's test to actually enter, which is available in every sect."
Shen Xiang followed Zhu Rong to a city named Tianmen City, which was the closest to the Taiwu Sect and was a frequent stop for many people who wanted to enter the Taiwu Sect.
Once he arrived here, Zhu Rong said goodbye to Shen Xiang, saying that he had to go back to the sect and that other idle people were not allowed to enter the Taiwu Sect at will.
"Heavenly Gate, is this the entrance to the Taiwu Sect?" Shen Xiang stood under the city gate and looked at the strong and powerful typed words on it.
As soon as you pass through the city, you can see a big straight road, and at the end of the road is a huge luxurious complex of buildings as big as a city, that is the Taiwu Gate!
"Little brother, this is a Sixth Stage Mortal Weapon, on sale at a discount for only nine hundred and ninety-nine crystals!" A big man stood at the entrance of the store and waved to Shen Xiang and shouted, people like Shen Xiang who looked around as soon as they entered the city, most of them were just dirt bags who had just entered the city and were best fooled.
Weapons and some defensive apparatus, can be divided into mortal weapons, spirit weapons, treasure weapons, each level has nine stages, mortal weapons are the lowest, both in terms of materials suitable for forging, are the most common craft, but six stages of mortal weapons but also good, close to the highest nine stages.
"Little brother, buy pills? Mortal grade top grade Great Yuan Dan, fifty-five crystals to take away, two for only a hundred." Another old man from an elixir store shouted.
Shen Xiang was surprised to see that elixir stores could be found everywhere in this Taiwu state, he walked over and asked, "Is there any purple spirit fruit for sale?"
"Of course there are, three hundred crystals!" The old man said.
The corner of Shen Xiang's mouth twitched up slightly, he was really hacked by that fatty, and that fatty actually only wanted to give ten crystals at first, at this time Shen Xiang also knew that inside this side of the world, pills were sold even more expensive, much more expensive than his Southern Martial Kingdom.
This is good for him, because he is an alchemist! He could already see many white crystals now, and at this time he learned that the price of a True Qi Pill was five hundred crystals, and it was still a limited purchase.
Shen Xiang strolled around this Heavenly Gate City, sold a few True Qi Pills, and quickly gathered enough three thousand crystals, which was the tuition fee to enter the Taiwu Sect, although he had the inheritance of Su Meiyao and Bai Youyou, but after entering a sect, he could learn more things in it, learn more martial arts, and also as a disciple of the sect, he could participate in various competitions, and he could get the sect's rewards for winning.
Shen Xiang walked towards the gate in the distance, the gate was open, there were many people going in and out, these days is the Taiwu Sect opened the door to recruit disciples, so many people came, but the vast majority are here to try their luck.
Shen Xiang walked through the gate, on a straight and spacious stone brick road, in the distance is surrounded by more than 20 feet high wall of the Taiwu Gate, Shen Xiang before thought that the Taiwu Gate is built on top of some high mountains.
Shen Xiang stood in front of the huge doorway, looking at the three imposing words "Taiwu Gate", his heart could not help but a surge of pride, the door was closed, but there is a small door is open.
In front of the door, there was a long line of people testing their spiritual veins, and only if they pass the test can they enter the outer gate, of course, without enough crystals.
The way to test the spiritual pulse is to stand on top of a disc with a formation that detects the spiritual pulse in a person's body and then lights up with different lights and a corresponding numerical value appears.
