Chapter 121: Ch. 55 Part 3

They both caught the scrolls which was thrown to them, both scrolls seemed different but both read ’Floating Steps And Foot Works’ the two beamed.

"Have it." a book was thrown at Yu with the title ’Beginner’s Sword Guide’ he opened it once in hand and started flipping through, he couldn’t stop grinning. "Once your understanding is high, you can buy a very good technique suitable for yourself." Although it was a guide instead of the technique he asked for Yu wasn’t dissatisfied at all, infact he was more than satisfied. "Thank you master Yan!" he thanked happily. Yanzhi nodded, if it was to be the Yu from last night Yanzhi would have just picked a random technique for him, but seeing that he had learned and lost his arrogance Yanzhi now looked at him as a junior and when a junior humbly pleads with a senior for help, him as the senior and knowledgeable in such aspects will guide the junior carefully rather than have the junior blindly skip the important things.

Instead of picking up actual techniques for them, he rather picked beginner guides for them, their knowledge on martial arts were really lacking. They were no different from beginners, it was a must for them to learn from the very beginning. No wonder there weren’t any true cultivators here and the martial artists were no different than mortals, Yanzhi sighed thinking it was really a pity. A total of 9 books and scrolls were taken by master Zhang, 5 guide books which were beginner guide to practicing martial arts, beginner guide on how to draw and refine runes and talismans, beginner guide on how to draw and refine formations and arrays, beginner’s Sword Guide and beginner’s spearmanship. And 4 technique scrolls which were ’The Thunder-splitting Technique’, ’Floating Steps And Foot Works Technique’, ’Sword Qi Technique’ and ’Heaven-splitting Spear Technique’

Magistrate Huang only picked as many as 5 which were beginner guide to practicing martial arts, ’Moon Breathing Technique’, ’Floating Steps And Foot Works Technique’, beginner’s sword guide and ’Illusion Sword Technique’

Yu had ’Beginner’s Sword Guide’, ’Mist Breathing Technique’ and ’Floating Steps And Foot Works Technique’

Yanzhi took them to where talismans and runes, elixirs and pills, formations and arrays were shelved.

"Master Yan how much are the talismans?" Cheng Lin asked, although he was unable to buy weapons and guides and techniques like the others, he believed that he could afford one or two of the talisman seeing the points not high as what the others bought.

"3 taels of silvers for talismans that needs to be activated with spiritual energy and 5 taels of silvers for activation-free talismans." Bee quoted the prices to him.

Cheng Lin finally was able to smile knowing he could buy a few for his protection and give him more security "First Elder Jiang I want five of fire attack talismans, five water attack and ten protection and defense talismans." he could also shop happily. Even madam Huang requested for a dozen or so of the activation-free talismans which were all protection and defense talismans.

"Pick up a few spirit gathering talisman, although it’s far worse than the formation, but it’s better than nothing." Yanzhi gave an advice to Cheng Lin pointing to a place on the shelf. Cheng Lin pick out 20 of them knowing that Yanzhi would not advice him to buy those if there weren’t important.

"Master Yan what is it’s use?" he asked after picking them up.

"Just like it’s name it helps in gathering spiritual energy in a concentrated place where it is set up, with the spirit gathering talisman the place it’s activated becomes abundant in spiritual energy for practicing and one low grade talisman can last for about two hours." he painstakingly explained to the little one.

The others rush to take some too after hearing what he said to Cheng Lin, master Zhang picked about 200 pieces, magistrate Huang 100 pieces and Yu 50 pieces.

"Master Yan for the spirit gathering formation how to use it?" master Zhang inquired.

"You can’t activate it for now, when your internal force strength is much stronger you can use it, but now your internal force strength isn’t enough to support and activate, but..."

Master Zhang who slumped his head down saddened raised his head back when Yanzhi said ’but’

"Master Yan but?" he asked excitedly.

"You can buy it and commission the fifth elder to set it up for you in your sect, a low grade spirit gathering talisman can support your entire sect for up to a year. It’s better to buy two to strengthen." he gave a solution and advised.

"Fifth elder?" master Zhang didn’t know who Yanzhi was talking about.

"En! Wasn’t he just here with us." Yanzhi hummed and casually spoke.

"Elder brother Chang is fifth elder?"

"En." he nodded to Cheng Lin’s words. "Fifth elder the master of Formations And Arrays Pavilion." he added leaving them in surprise. They asked no more questions, master Zhang picked up two of the spirit gathering formation which was priced at 300 points each. They left there and went to the pills and elixirs section, each picking up a few bottles of rejuvenating pills and spirit restoration pills.

"Master Yan I think that is all." looking at the things pilled in his arms and dragging, master Zhang informed.

"You don’t need storage bags?" Yanzhi sounded surprised.

"Storage bags? Master Yan you have those too?" They took over his surprise.

Instead of answering them he raised up his hand with a ring, suddenly stacks of talismans appeared in his hand out of nowhere. The storage ring was a disguise for his personal space, he only keeps miscellaneous stuffs there. He sent the talismans back into the storage ring and pointed to Bee’s earring and Yue’s bracelet. "Storage earring, storage bracelet."

The people’s eyes turned green with envy and jealousy.

"Master Yan how would you sell the storage bag? Can I use them too?" Madam Huang was first to break the silence.

"Storage bag with space of an acre of land cost a thousand taels of silvers, you can use it." Yanzhi answered her, she couldn’t hide her excitements after hearing him. "Then a storage ring..."

"You can’t! The storage ring inquires the use of spiritual energy. But if you want it I can get you one which doesn’t inquire spiritual energy but it will cost you more than silvers."

"Money doesn’t matter, I plead with master Yan to get me one." she didn’t notice when she had started addressing him by his name instead of surname like she used to. "For now I’ll take one storage bag." she added.

"I’ll take one too"

"Will too"

Master Zhang and magistrate Huang said after her. Yu didn’t have that much on him so he decided he would come back for it another time. Bee went to get the storage bags at their requests.

"Please tally everything for me." Yu came forward.

"Two swords pricing at 500 taels of silvers each, 1000 taels for both. Sword Guide book priced at 50 taels of silvers, breathing technique priced at 30 taels and the technique scroll at 100 taels of silvers. 3 taels of silvers for talismans, 50 spirit gathering talismans, 30 fire attack talismans, 20 water attack talismans, 10 sword qi talismans, 5 communication talismans, 5 invisibility talismans and 50 protection and defense talismans making 510 taels for talismans. 1 bottle rejuvenating pills priced at 50 taels and 1 bottle of spirit restoration pills priced at 100 taels, making a total of 1,750 taels of silvers." Bee calculated in seconds, this amount which would make people crazy and mushy, Bee only had a look that says ’hurry up, you’re wasting my time’ there was no up or down in his emotions. Yu paid up in silver bank notes and silver ingots. After dealing with him he calculated for the others and quickly settled, amongst all of them the one who spent the most was naturally master Zhang, and the one who spent the least was ofcourse our poor ghost Cheng Lin. They exited the treasure hall after buying, Yanzhi gave them white plain cards with ’TianXin Sect’ inscripted in bold characters on it, it was for them to be able to enter and exit TianXin mountain as guests, because it was a guest token it could only be used for a few times. He took out a different card of blue color which were meant for disciples of TianXin sect for Cheng Lin. The cards he made for the sect’s use were in a total of six colours, Black, Red, Violet, Green, Blue and White. Black cards were the superior of all and meant for people like Lixin and his brothers and sister, Xile, aunt Feng and uncle Feng, the nine guards, old Fei and Tan Fan and the people in the information peak who were the main core in the sect. Those were the people he decided to keep for years to come, they’ll be the people with him always the only way they’ll no longer be needed is when they dare to betray him, but because they didn’t have that connection with him that the seven of Yue and Xiao Ling and Bee had with him the black card was made to grant them access to all restricted places in the sect, with the black card they could move around everywhere around on TianXin mountain and also grant them access to the transportation portals. And the Red cards were meant for people who might interest Xiao Ling, Bee and the seven of Yue and taken as disciples to teach them cultivation, although with the red card some restricted areas could be visited but not all restricted area. And the violet card for registered martial arts disciples of the sect, with that they have access to restricted second floors of the library and the treasure hall where higher low grade artifacts and resources and technique books and scrolls are kept. The green cards for normal disciples and cannot access any of the restricted areas, the blue card was the as the green card but it is used to differentiate the disciples from the handymen who are the servants to be bought in the sect, blue for disciples and green for handymen. And finally the white card which is given to guests of the sect and can only be used to enter and exit TianXin mountain. There is another kind of cards, but those are kept for special occasions and not for daily use like the main cards.

The reason he gave Cheng Lin the blue card which can record points and would allow him to use points of TianXin Sect was that he had seen that Lin kept the child around him and seemed to be fond him, but whether he intends to accept the child as a disciple was up to Lin himself, he could only assist with this and would do nothing more. "When you have nothing to do, come and work here for me and I’ll reward you with points, you can also buy what you need." he also had a little bit interest in the little one who was very respectful and didn’t have the arrogance like the others so doing this much was normal in his eyes. The rest depends on whether Lin accepts him and his own hard work to go beyond the limits of mortals. "Thank you master Yan." Cheng Lin cupped respectfully with excitements. Yanzhi hummed and turned to the others who had their eyes on Cheng Lin’s card. "Next time you’re here for business just look for First Elder Jiang, and he’ll see to it. You can look around for a while before going down, we won’t accompany. Yue will take a look at the things you’ve brought, you discuss matters with her, madam Huang." After giving instructions he left them along with Bee.
