The mortal self is the spiritual root of heaven

Chapter 32
Before leaving the valley, Zhou Xun retrieved his flying spirit beast, the shoebill stork. He did not want to waste his mana on flying the airship.

Zhou Xun put his hands on the back of his head, crossed his legs, and lay comfortably on the shoebill stork's back.

After exiting the mountain gate prohibition formation, he took the correct direction and flew to the northeast.

After more than half a day, the market in Yellow Maple Valley arrived.

The city of Huang Maple Valley is built on the northeastern edge of the Taiyue Mountains.

Because it is close to the Yuanwu Kingdom in the north, monks from the Yuanwu Kingdom often come here to trade items in Huangfenggufang City, bringing many special items that are not available in the Yue Kingdom.

When he came this time, one was to get rid of the unused magic weapons in the storage bag, and the other was to buy a magic circle.

If there is a chance, he just wants to meet Na Xin Ruyin. The original book said that her facial features are very ordinary, but her temperament is extremely stunning, which makes him quite curious.

Secondly, he was also quite sorry that this strange woman died young. If he could recommend her to Yellow Maple Valley, relying on the resources of Yellow Maple Valley, he might be able to rescue her.

Zhou looked for a valley near Fangshi to land.

Because according to the rules of the immortal world, immortal cultivators are not allowed to fly in the sky within five miles of the city.

Jumped off the shoebill stork's back, tidied up his clothes, and then put the shoebill stork into the spirit beast bag.

Walking all the way to Fangshi, I occasionally met a few monks on the road, but they were all practicing Qi.

Seeing the fluctuations in Zhou Xun's foundation-building power, they all bowed and stopped.Falling far behind, let Zhou Xun go first to show respect.

This shows that this world of cultivation is even more hierarchical.

Not long after, Zhou Xun arrived at the entrance of Fangshi.

The entire city looks like a mortal town. There is one street in total, running in the north-south direction. There are dozens of houses built at the southern end, some are buildings, some are huts, and they are unevenly distributed.

There are some sparse stalls on both sides of the street.Zhou Xun looked around and saw that they were all low-level magic weapons and talismans.Occasionally there are some mid-range ones, and the quality is average.

So we walked towards those big shops.

"Qiqiao Pavilion"

"Yinfengzhai"

"Heavenly Building"

Suddenly a familiar name appeared in front of me.

"Wanbao Building"

It was the "Wanbao Building" that Zhou Xun had seen at Tainan Xiaohui before. Even the architectural style was similar.

Zhou Xun then walked in.

I saw a few dozen young men in green shirts explaining something next to the guests in the hall.

When Zhou Xun entered, his magic power in the foundation-building stage had not been restrained. Suddenly, the noisy hall became quiet, and everyone looked towards Zhou Xun.

At this time, a boy ran over and said respectfully:
"Senior, welcome to our Wanbao Building. I don't know what you want to see, why don't you go and take a seat on the second floor. Our shopkeeper will personally receive you."

"I want to take a look at the best magic circles and sell some magic weapons," Zhou Xun replied calmly.

This is a shop in the world of cultivating immortals.Not only do you sell treasures, but you also buy them.

The boy nodded repeatedly and led Zhou Xun to the second floor.

The furnishings on the second floor are completely different from those in the lobby. The antique furniture is elegant and generous.A gentle middle-aged man, who is also a foundation-building monk, is holding an ancient book.

Seeing the guests coming, he quickly put down his book, looked at Zhou Xun, then stepped forward and saluted:
"It turns out to be a fellow Taoist from Huang Maple Valley. I'm Tian Buli, the shopkeeper of Wanbao Pavilion. What do you call me?"

At the same time, the boy quickly walked up to the shopkeeper and whispered a few words in his ear.

"I am Han Li"

Zhou Xun borrowed Han Li's name without hesitation.

"It's Brother Han. I know most of the fellow Foundation Builders in Huang Maple Valley. Brother Han seems to be very unfamiliar to me. He must be a Taoist who has been promoted recently. Please sit down, brother."

The middle-aged man led Zhou Xun to sit down on the imperial chair by the window.

"The shopkeeper has good eyesight. I have just advanced to the foundation building stage, so I came to your building to buy a magic circle to guard the cave," Zhou Xun said slowly. "It turns out you need a magic circle. I'm going to get it now. Fellow Taoist, please sit down for a moment and enjoy a cup of tea from my Wanbao Tower."

Then he told the boy:

"Go, make a pot of Biyun tea!"

Then he turned around and went downstairs.

After the tea time, the middle-aged shopkeeper came up again, holding a storage bag in his hand.

"Here, the several sets of magic formations collected by our Wanbao Tower are all inside. They are all rare treasures."

Zhou Xun's eyes lit up and he stared at the storage bag in front of him.

The middle-aged shopkeeper felt proud when he saw Zhou Xun's eyes.Take out a set of formation disks and formation flags from the storage bag.Introduction:

"This is the Great Five Elements Forbidden Formation"

"Set up outside the cave, and you can draw the power of the Five Elements on your own. Dozens of restrictions are formed around the cave. The foundation-building monks cannot break them."

"The flaw is that after setting it up, it takes three months to absorb the spiritual energy of heaven and earth. But as a cave guard formation, it is an excellent choice."

Zhou Xun shook his head. It took three months to form a ban, which was of no use to him.What he wants is a magic circle that can be set up anytime and anywhere to protect him outdoors.So he refused:

"Although this magic circle is good, it is not enough to make me excited."

Seeing that Zhou Xun was not interested, the middle-aged shopkeeper didn't care and took out the second set of formations.

"Five Elements and Seven Killing Formation"

"This formation is a trapping and killing formation. Based on the power of the five elements, seven trapping and killing formations have been evolved. Even if a monk is trapped in the formation in the late stage of foundation building, he will have to drink and hate on the spot."

"And if this formation is presided over by five early-stage foundation-building monks with five elements of magic power, even the fake alchemy monks will have a hard time competing against it."

After Shopkeeper Tian said these words, he showed a proud look, which shows that this magic circle is indeed rare.

Zhou Xun was unmoved when he heard this. Even the fake alchemy monks could not compete with it. This Five Elements Seven Killing Formation was truly a top-notch trapping and killing formation, but it was a pity that Zhou Xun needed a defensive formation.

So I had no choice but to explain aloud:
"This magic circle is indeed extraordinary and its power is astonishing. But what I want is a defensive magic circle that can be deployed and taken away at will."

I heard Zhou Xun say this.Shopkeeper Tian frowned and said helplessly:

"If it is this kind of magic circle, our store only has one set of 'Five Elements Forbidden Element Array', but it is just an ordinary magic circle, which can only defend against monks who have perfected their Qi training."

"If fellow Taoist had come here half a month earlier, there would have been a set of magic circles like this, but it was a pity that it was sold more than ten days ago."

After speaking, he paused for a moment, pondered for a while, and then said:

"If fellow Taoist is not in a hurry, come back in a month and I will definitely leave a set of top-level defensive arrays for fellow Taoist. What do you think?"

Zhou Xun did not expect that even Wanbao Tower could not buy the magic circle he wanted.He lowered his head and thought for a while.I decided to take down this set of "Five Elements Forbidden Element Array" first.I reluctantly used it first.

"Just take this set of the 'Five Elements Forbidden Element Formation'. You don't need the reserved ones."

Shopkeeper Tian could only nod his head, and then told the boy next to him:

"Bring up the 'Five Elements Forbidden Element Array'"

Then he faced Zhou Xun and said in a low tone:

"Cheng Hui 200 Spiritual Stones"

Zhou Xun nodded, took out his pile of low-level magic weapons and talismans, and asked:

“See how much these can be worth.”

Shopkeeper Tian took a look and saw that they were all low-level items, and he didn't want to accept them at first.But I thought that Zhou Xun was a disciple of Huang Maple Valley.With the mentality of making good friends, I accepted it.

"These can be worth 140 spiritual stones. Fellow Taoist, just add another 60 spiritual stones."

Then Zhou Xun replenished the spirit stones, collected the magic circle, and left Wanbao Tower.

I plan to visit Yuanwu Country next.
