"In the future, if I establish a family, or build a sect, I can also have some foundation, so that I don't have to temporarily procure everything."
"In my spare time, I can also take them out to read, to relieve my regret of not grasping its intricacies."
"This Dao of formations, truly makes it difficult for me to let go."
Shaking his head, He Song's expression showed a hint of melancholy, but the light of desire in his eyes did not seem to be fake.
It seemed that he had really studied the Dao of formations before, but in the end, he could not grasp its intricacies, and thus developed an obsession with the Dao of formations.
Such an expression was naturally put on by He Song.
He Song had already achieved some success in the Dao of formations as early as the Qi Condensation Stage.
How could he develop an obsession with formations because he could not grasp its intricacies?
The reason for saying this was still because He Song did not want to expose his identity in the Dao of formations.
But if he did not say this, it would be difficult to find an opportunity to inquire about this matter from True Lord Luo Jing.
Naturally, He Song also disguised himself slightly, disguising himself as a cultivator who was full of longing for the Dao of formations, but had studied for many years without entering its door.
In this way, He Song's desire for profound formation Dao scriptures also had a certain degree of rationality.
After possessing a certain degree of rationality.
He Song continued to speak, wanting to inquire about the situation of profound formation Dao scriptures from True Lord Luo Jing, naturally, it would not arouse suspicion.
And this was the reason why He Song made this move.
If he directly asked about profound formation Dao scriptures as soon as he opened his mouth, True Lord Luo Jing would probably directly ask He Song in the next moment if he had any involvement in the Dao of formations.
If it really came to that time, even if He Song said no, he would probably be suspected.
In this case, it would be better to state the reason early on, blocking True Lord Luo Jing's mouth, so that she only needed to answer the question.
This could both make He Song's statement reasonable and reduce some trouble.
It was simply the best of both worlds.
"Dao of formations, or profound scriptures of other skills?"
"This, you have to ask Junior Sister."
"Junior Sister, you are often in contact with cultivation method scriptures and the like in the Cloud Prefecture main pavilion, do you know where to find these things?"
After hearing He Song's words, True Lord Luo Jing first repeated He Song's words once.
But immediately afterwards, she seemed to have thought of something, turned her gaze to True Lord Cloud Still at the side, and began to inquire.
True Lord Cloud Still had always stayed in the Cloud Prefecture main pavilion, by True Lord Purple Robe's side, unlike True Lord Luo Jing.
She was much more familiar with the affairs within the Cloud Prefecture main pavilion than True Lord Luo Jing.
Moreover, True Lord Cloud Still had previously had the habit of collecting various cultivation method scriptures.
Otherwise, He Song would not have been entrusted by True Lord Luo Jing to go to deliver a dual cultivation method to True Lord Cloud Still back then.
True Lord Luo Jing, who already knew about this, naturally thought of this matter as soon as she heard He Song's inquiry.
And quickly opened her mouth, and inquired about True Lord Cloud Still at the side.
Following True Lord Luo Jing's inquiry.
True Lord Cloud Still, who had originally been silently listening to the two people's conversation at the side, also reacted at this moment.
Wasn't this opportunity to befriend He Song?
Thinking of this, True Lord Cloud Still was secretly delighted in her heart.
This was truly like having a pillow delivered just as she was feeling sleepy.
After thinking for a moment, True Lord Cloud Still's expression moved slightly, and then she opened her mouth and said.
"Speaking of these profound Dao of formations, or other skill scriptures, I have seen quite a few."
"There are those used by Foundation Establishment stage cultivators, and also those used by Golden Core realm cultivators."
"However, these things usually only appear in the main pavilion, at the large-scale auction held once every ten years, and the transaction prices are not low."
"If friend wants them, you can search in the main pavilion of this Azure Moon Prefecture City, perhaps there are already cultivators consigning them for auction."
"Friend, please rest assured, with me and Senior Sister here, we will definitely not let friend suffer losses in the Treasure Gathering Pavilion."
"Not to mention helping friend to get them at the lowest price, at least we can guarantee that the other party does not dare to ask for an exorbitant price."
"Unfortunately, this place is not the Cloud Prefecture main pavilion."
"Otherwise…"
Speaking halfway, True Lord Cloud Still waved her hand in a seemingly helpless manner.
After waving her hand, she quickly summoned a person, and asked the other party to check if there were any scriptures recording various skills in the main pavilion of this Azure Moon Prefecture City.
According to True Lord Cloud Still, if there were, they should bring the things over.
If they were consigned for auction, they should bring the consignor over.
If there were none, then forget it.
Following True Lord Cloud Still's order, the person summoned by her quickly left.
Thus.
After half a day, when He Song and the other two continued to chat idly, that person respectfully holding a tray, came to the three people.
On the tray, more than ten jade slips shone brightly within.
Seeing this situation, the three people who were originally chatting idly, had to turn their attention to these jade slips at this moment.
He Song was even more surprised in his heart.
There were more than ten jade slips on the tray, and there were no introductions or anything like that inscribed on them.
Could it be that these more than ten jade slips all recorded Golden Core skills?
Thoughts like this flashed through his mind, and the light in He Song's eyes gradually brightened.
It seemed.
There were really many good things hidden in this Azure Moon main pavilion.
He had only casually mentioned it, and he was able to find so many treasures here.
But he just did not know which skills' Golden Core scriptures were recorded in these more than ten jade slips.
With such thoughts, He Song's heart gradually began to look forward to it.
And True Lord Luo Jing and True Lord Cloud Still, who were currently beside He Song, naturally also noticed these things.
Seeing such a scene, a look of astonishment flashed across True Lord Cloud Still's face.
When did.
Jade slips like this that recorded Golden Core skills become so common?
According to her previous understanding in the Cloud Prefecture main pavilion, shouldn't these jade slips be extremely rare, and only be seen at the auction held once every ten years?
But now this…
Looking at the more than ten jade slips on the tray, the look of astonishment on True Lord Cloud Still's face became even more intense.
And beside her, True Lord Luo Jing's expression did not change much, just looking at this scene, a trace of suspicion also flashed through her mind.
Could it be that she was ignorant and ill-informed.
These Golden Core things did not seem to be scarce at all.
As the three people's gazes swept over.
The person who had been sent to find this item behind the tray also quickly opened his mouth.
A crisp voice also followed.
"Senior, this junior has searched the entire main pavilion, and all of these more than ten jade slips record various skills."
"Some are for Foundation Establishment use, and some are for Qi Condensation use."
"However, this junior has searched the entire main pavilion, but only found one Golden Core scripture related to the Dao of formations."
"According to the records in the pavilion, this Golden Core scripture is a recently acquired item of the pavilion, and the time it was put into the warehouse should not have exceeded half a month."
"Besides that, the rest are all scriptures for Qi Condensation and Foundation Establishment use, these scriptures are available in various categories."
"I wonder if senior has any other important matters?"
As this crisp voice came out, the light of anticipation that was originally in He Song's eyes suddenly dimmed.
He also had a number in his heart regarding what he had obtained this time.
Originally, when he saw the more than ten jade slips on the tray, He Song had even thought about his subsequent cultivation plans.
But he did not expect that as time went by.
Things also changed accordingly.
When he learned that among the more than ten jade slips in front of him, only one was what he needed, He Song could not help but sigh in his heart.
But soon, He Song was relieved.
According to the Green Leaf Pill Collection he had previously obtained at the auction, and what True Lord Cloud Still had said.
Like Golden Core Dao of formations scriptures, and jade slips recording other skills, they usually appeared at the auction held once every ten years in the main pavilion.
The Treasure Gathering Pavilion main pavilion's auction, held once every ten years, was the only time such treasures might exist.
Being able to find such a jade slip in the warehouse of the Treasure Gathering Pavilion main pavilion like this now could already be considered quite lucky.
If it was someone else, or if he had come here at another time, whether he could get this jade slip would be another matter.
Thinking like this, He Song suddenly felt that with such a jade slip appearing, his trip had already been worthwhile.
But.
Just when such thoughts flashed through He Song's mind, and he was preparing to take out spirit stones to buy this jade slip.
True Lord Cloud Still, who was at the side, after hearing these words, and the doubts in her heart had been answered, only then suddenly understood, and the gaze she cast towards those jade slips also became calm at this moment.
Originally, she had also thought like He Song, that the more than ten jade slips on this tray were all Golden Core items.
But she did not expect that the situation was not like this.
Among these more than ten jade slips, only one was a Golden Core item.
And the only Golden Core Dao of formations jade slip among them was only recently acquired from someone else within the last half month.
After learning this point, the astonishment in her heart naturally also disappeared.
After recalling what she had said before, True Lord Cloud Still was relieved in her heart.
So, it was not that this Golden Core Dao of formations jade slip had become commonplace, it was just because the people below had taken a copy of the many jade slips recording various skills, and brought them all over.
Thinking of this, True Lord Cloud Still nodded slightly, and then said.
"You can go down first, you can leave this place to This Seat."
Having said that.
True Lord Cloud Still gently waved her hand, and immediately used magical power to wrap the only Golden Core Dao of formations jade slip on the tray, and sent it into her own hand.
After the room was once again only left with He Song and the other two.
True Lord Cloud Still did not say much, and casually sent the Golden Core Dao of formations jade slip in her hand to He Song's side.
Before He Song could open his mouth in confusion.
True Lord Cloud Still's voice had already sounded again.
"Friend, please accept it."
"Although this Golden Core Dao of formations jade slip's price at auction is not low, but with friend's wealth, buying it would be just a piece of cake."
"Previously, friend once participated in the auction held by Senior Sister at the Golden Core Celebration, and successfully bid for a Dao of pills jade slip."
"Friend's action of taking out twenty thousand mid-grade spirit stones with a wave of hand back then, is still deeply engraved in my heart."
"However, this Golden Core Dao of formations jade slip has not been auctioned, so naturally the price will not reach that high."
"With my authority, and after recalculating the price of this item, friend only needs to pay fourteen thousand mid-grade spirit stones."
"Compared to the twenty thousand mid-grade spirit stones at the previous auction, this price is already the best price I can give."
Nodding towards He Song, True Lord Cloud Still, after finishing speaking, also glanced at her senior sister, True Lord Luo Jing.
Seeing True Lord Cloud Still look towards her, True Lord Luo Jing thought for a moment, and then quickly nodded in agreement.
Indicating that what True Lord Cloud Still said was not false at all.
He Song saw this clearly, and naturally felt relieved in his heart.
After putting the jade slip in front of him into his storage pouch, He Song also handed over fourteen thousand mid-grade spirit stones to True Lord Cloud Still.
Since then, the transaction was concluded.
He Song obtained a Golden Core Dao of formations jade slip.
Moreover, the price was also much cheaper than the Green Leaf Pill Collection he had previously obtained.
The price difference of nearly six thousand mid-grade spirit stones was all earned for him by True Lord Cloud Still in front of him.
Regarding this, He Song also had a trace of gratitude in his heart for her, and the gaze he cast towards her also became more friendly.
After seeing He Song put away the jade slip, and quickly handed over fourteen thousand mid-grade spirit stones to herself, True Lord Cloud Still also quickly nodded, indicating that this transaction was completely completed.
Moreover, He Song accepted the price she stated, and naturally, it also counted as acknowledging this favor of hers.
The six thousand mid-grade spirit stones saved were really not a small amount.
Even for Golden Core True Lords, it was not a small amount.
Six thousand mid-grade spirit stones, which was six hundred thousand low-grade spirit stones.
For Foundation Establishment True Persons, it was even more of a huge sum.
Such a favor, He Song would naturally remember.
In this way, He Song got the Golden Core Dao of formations jade slip he wanted.
True Lord Cloud Still also used this matter to make He Song remember her favor.
Such a win-win situation, both sides were naturally happy hosts and guests.
When the transaction ended.
The three people then chatted idly about various interesting things in the Treasure Gathering Pavilion.
Regarding this, when He Song chatted with them, he also learned many things he had never heard of before, which could be considered to have broadened his horizons.
People of the Treasure Gathering Pavilion were somewhat different from disciples of other sects and rogue cultivators.
Whether it was True Lord Luo Jing or True Lord Cloud Still, their sources of information far exceeded others.
Some secret matters were just trivial matters in their mouths.
Therefore, what He Song gained could also be considered quite abundant.
However.
The moon has its phases of waxing and waning, and people have their sorrows and joys of parting and reunion.
The time spent with friends was always short.
He Song had stayed in Azure Moon Prefecture City for half a month, and then proposed to bid farewell.
The reason was nothing else.
Staying in the Treasure Gathering Pavilion every day, discussing Dao with True Lord Luo Jing and True Lord Cloud Still, although every day was very fulfilling, and he could also hear some secrets that were usually difficult to hear.
But you must know.
He had just obtained a Golden Core Dao of formations jade slip from True Lord Cloud Still, almost half-given and half-sold.
For He Song, who was already quite accomplished in the Dao of formations, being able to endure half a month without comprehending this jade slip could already be said to be enduring to the limit.
But in front of True Lord Luo Jing and True Lord Cloud Still, he could not concentrate on comprehending its contents.
Otherwise, once people asked, what He Song had said before would probably immediately be exposed, and his own attainments in formations would be revealed.
Such a situation was what He Song would never allow.
