Chapter 787: Chapter 787

The Qingxuan Fang City is one of the fifteen great marketplaces of the Human Clan and has no small reputation on the Green Lotus Continent, teeming with merchants and travelers, and rich in Cultivation Resources.

The streets are spacious and clean, with a large number of Cultivators coming and going.

Shen Long and Chu Buyu strolled down the streets, looking around.

They arrived at Qingxuan Fang City with the greatest haste, preparing to purchase ship tickets to the Thunder Continent.

"Oh, Taoist Friend Shen, Fairy Chu, what a coincidence!"

A familiar male voice called out.

Shen Long looked in the direction of the voice and saw Ni Tianting and Lin Yuyuan walking towards them.

"Taoist Friend Ni, Madam Lin, it has been a long time."

Shen Long greeted them with a smile on his face.

"It’s been years, Fairy Chu has advanced to the middle stage of Void Refinement, congratulations."

Lin Yuyuan offered her congratulations.

"Hasn’t Madam Lin also advanced to the middle stage? Congratulations to you as well."

Chu Buyu returned the compliment with a slight smile.

"Taoist Friend Ni, is Madam Ni also in Qingxuan Fang City?"

Previously, Ni Tianyao had given Shen Long seven eggs of the Seven Stars Jade Silkworm. Shen Long hatched five of them and, after investing a large amount of resources, managed to raise two Rank 6 Seven Stars Jade Silkworms.

Before leaving the Qianling Sect, Shen Long hatched the two remaining eggs, planning to purchase the ship tickets first before delivering the Seven Stars Jade Silkworms to Ni Tianyao.

"She’s not here; she’s secluded herself for Cultivation. Do you need my clan sister for something, Taoist Friend Shen?"

"Madam Ni entrusted me to help hatch the eggs. It took me a great deal of effort, but I managed to hatch one. Could you please pass this on to Madam Ni for me?"

Shen Long took out a green Spirit Beast Bracelet and handed it to Ni Tianting.

A look of surprise flashed across Ni Tianting’s eyes. Ni Tianyao had sought out a Unity Cultivator elder from their clan who had tried several methods but failed to hatch the eggs. Shen Long had succeeded; it appeared that specialization was key, and one truly needed a Spirit Controller for such tasks.

"No problem, I’ll take care of this."

Ni Tianting agreed, taking out a silver-glowing Law Disk and imbuing it with a spell, causing his brows to furrow.

"Taoist Friend Shen, Fairy Chu, we have some matters to attend to, so we’ll take our leave first."

After greeting them, Ni Tianting left with Lin Yuyuan.

"This is good; we don’t need to make an extra trip to the Ni family."

Chu Buyu revealed a smile.

Shen Long nodded and continued walking forward with Chu Buyu.

Here, many Spirit Clan and Snow Clan cultivators could be seen, which Shen Long and Chu Buyu found unsurprising.

After a short time, they arrived at a vast Azure Stone Plaza with a treasure pagoda that emitted a constant stream of azure light at its center. The pagoda, engraved with the large characters "Green Whirl Tower," stood prominently with numerous Cultivators entering and exiting.

They had inquired earlier; this was the place to purchase ship tickets.

Shen Long and Chu Buyu entered, and the main hall was spacious and brightly lit. A round counter was visible, and a row of tall shelves, where a group of Green-robed Attendants were introducing products to customers.

A medium-built Green-robed man approached them briskly, greeted them with a deep bow, and enthusiastically said, "Welcome to the Green Whirl Tower, esteemed predecessors. How may I assist you today?"

"We would like to purchase ship tickets to the Thunder Continent."

"Please, upstairs, esteemed predecessors."

The Green-robed man gestured and led the way.

They reached the ninth floor, where a corpulent man in green robes and a full-figured woman in a white dress were sitting around a green tea table, chatting leisurely.

"Elder Xu, Elder Lin, these two esteemed predecessors wish to purchase tickets to the Thunder Continent," the Green-robed man introduced and then excused himself.

The green-robed elder and the white-dressed woman both stood up and said in unison, "Junior Xu Lin (Lin Rong) greets the two esteemed predecessors."

"How much are the ship tickets in Spirit Stones?"

"The fee varies depending on the Cultivator’s level of Cultivation, limited only to Soul Transformation Cultivators and Void Refining Cultivators. Before departure, we will use a treasure to verify Cultivation levels. For Void Refining Cultivators, the price is one hundred million Spirit Stones per ticket."

Xu Lin began to speak.

"One hundred million Spirit Stones, that expensive?"

Chu Buyu frowned and said.

This price could buy a set of sixth-order Formations, they could afford it, but didn’t want to be taken advantage of.

"It’s very dangerous overseas, so the tickets are naturally more expensive. The seniors can collect unique resources from the Green Lotus Continent and sell them on the Thunder Continent to make a profit in Spirit Stones."

Xu Lin explained with a smile on his face.

"Yes! The ships of other forces heading to the Thunder Continent are priced similarly to ours."

"When do we set sail?"

Xu Lin said truthfully.

"Why so soon? In the past, the ship wouldn’t set sail until a year after the tickets were sold."

Chu Buyu said with confusion.

"This time the situation is a bit special. A year later, we will have a caravan going to the Thunder Continent. The seniors can choose to depart then."

"Alright, we’ll buy two tickets."

Xu Lin took out two golden square tokens and handed them to Shen Long, saying, "These are the tickets, recognized by the token and not the person. Seniors, please keep them safe and board the ship with these tickets when the time comes."

Shen Long accepted the tokens, and Chu Buyu paid the Spirit Stones. They then walked towards the downstairs.

Just as they stepped out of Green Whirl Tower, a male voice, filled with surprise and joy, rang out: "Taoist Friend Shen, long time no see."

Following the source of the voice, Shen Long saw Wu Xiao and a brawny man in a yellow shirt with a broad waist, approaching head on.

Having not seen him for many years, Wu Xiao was now at the initial stage of Void Refinement.

"Long time no see, Taoist Friend Wu. This is my wife, Chu Buyu."

Shen Long introduced.

Barbarian Tribe is a subordinate race to the Fire Fusion Clan and has several Unity Cultivators.

"Finally, I get to see Taoist Friend Shen again. This is Taoist Friend Da."

Wu Xiao pointed to the man in the yellow shirt to introduce him.

"I’m Damir. I’ve long heard of Taoist Friend Shen’s great reputation."

The man in the yellow shirt said with a salute, his voice booming.

Shen Long’s deeds during the great racial wars had spread, and Damir had heard of them.

"Taoist Friend Shen, Fairy Chu, may we speak in private for a moment?"

Wu Xiao asked politely.

Shen Long nodded, and they followed Wu Xiao to a teahouse, taking a private room.

"Taoist Friend Shen, I heard that you can concoct top-quality elixirs. I would like to buy from you a top-quality elixir that heals Divine Soul injuries, could you grant this favor?"

Wu Xiao asked eagerly.

"Such elixirs are very precious, it all depends on what Taoist Friend Wu is willing to exchange for it."

Shen Long’s tone was calm.

Damir took out a bundle of golden silk, saying, "This is silk spat out by a sixth-grade Seven Stars Jade Silkworm, a top-notch material for refining defense treasures. How about this?"

"While the silk is precious, it pales in comparison to a top-quality elixir that heals Divine Soul injuries. Add these Alchemy Materials to it, how about that?"

Wu Xiao took out a green Storage Bracelet and handed it to Shen Long.

Shen Long gave it a scan with his Divine Sense and frowned, "It’s too little, top-quality elixirs for healing Divine Soul injuries are not cabbages."

Hearing this, Wu Xiao and Damir frowned deeply.

"For Taoist Friend Wu’s sake, I can trade you two top-quality Six-Petal Gold Soul Pills."

Shen Long’s tone shifted as he spoke.
