Chapter 782: Chapter 518: Treasure Tower, Ways to Earn Spirit Stones
"Senior, why are you back again?"
A young boy looked at Lu Qing, who had left and returned, with a face full of surprise.
Previously, he had exchanged some basic knowledge of Canglan City for a fine Magic Artifact from Lu Qing and was quite pleased.
Seeing Lu Qing return, he was initially stunned and then began to feel uneasy.
Could it be that after a round of exploring, this Senior discovered that what he shared was common knowledge known to everyone in the city?
Thinking he was deceived, and now wants to come back for accountability?
"Se-Senior, do you want to take back your Magic Artifact?" the boy stammered.
"Hmm?" Lu Qing was taken aback.
However, seeing the somewhat anxious expression on the boy’s face, he immediately understood what was going on.
He smiled, "Don’t worry, I’m not here to retrieve the Magic Artifact, but to inquire about something else."
Hearing that Lu Qing was not here to take the Magic Artifact back, nor to hold him accountable, the boy heaved a sigh of relief.
"I don’t know what else the Senior wishes to ask. I assure you, I will tell everything I know," the boy quickly said.
"I want to ask, in Canglan City, what kinds of businesses earn Spirit Stones quickly..."
When Lu Qing raised his question, the boy was surprised for a moment and then came to a realization.
He wasn’t surprised by Lu Qing’s inquiry.
The strong cultivators from the outside who came to the Little Cang Realm, almost all aimed to enter the Heavenly Origin Great World.
Yet entering the Heavenly Origin Great World is not easy.
The Spirit Stones required for entry are no small amount.
Previously, he had seen some elders who took a long time in Canglan City to accumulate enough Spirit Stones to enter the Heavenly Origin Great World.
"What skills is the Senior adept at for earning Spirit Stones in Canglan City?" the boy pondered and asked.
"First, tell me how people generally earn Spirit Stones," Lu Qing said softly without answering directly.
"Well, there are many ways. Canglan City is one of the most bustling cities in the Little Cang Realm, filled with countless opportunities.
Elixirs, Magical Treasures, talismans, no matter what trade, there’s an opportunity to earn Spirit Stones.
The key depends on which Hundred Skills of Cultivation the Senior excels in.
If you’re not skilled in any, there are other ways.
As a Golden Core True Man, with profound cultivation, you could serve as a Honored Guest Elder at certain trading companies or factions.
Or by taking on some escort missions, there are considerable rewards in Spirit Stones as well..."
As the boy prattled on, Lu Qing finally gained a clearer understanding of the money-making avenues in Canglan City.
Simply put, if one is skilled in alchemy, crafting Magical Treasures, or talismans,
they can earn Spirit Stones by selling the treasures they craft.
If not skilled in any of the Hundred Skills of Cultivation, one can rely on their strength and join certain factions as a Honored Guest Elder to earn a good income.
Even if one doesn’t mind the loss of dignity, they could work as guards or escorts, and earn this way too.
In any case, everything relies on one’s own strength.
With sufficient strength, one can easily earn Spirit Stones.
However, if one’s cultivation is shallow, lacking in strength, then all opportunities are mere illusions.
After understanding all this, Lu Qing looked at the boy with a half-smile: "Why didn’t you mention this earlier?"
The boy shuddered, cold sweat breaking out on his back, and hastily said: "Earlier, Senior did not ask, so I assumed you would directly enter the Heavenly Origin Great World, so didn’t mention it. I didn’t deliberately withhold information from you!"
"Alright, no need to panic, I was just joking with you,"
Seeing the boy’s honest and terrified demeanor, Lu Qing didn’t intend to trouble him further.
"But next, take me on a tour of the city and tell me about the various trading factions here.
If you do well, maybe I’ll reward you with another Magic Artifact."
"I understand, Senior."
The boy felt bitter inside, but didn’t dare defy Lu Qing.
After all, the person in front of him was a Golden Core True Man, who could easily kill him.
Though fighting was prohibited in Canglan City, he dared not gamble with his life.
As for the reward Lu Qing mentioned, he dared not have any expectations.
Just hoped he could satisfy the Senior later.
In the time that followed, the boy named Zhang Feng led Lu Qing around the city, explaining the distribution of factions.
"Senior, this Treasure Tower specializes in selling various exotic treasures and is one of the largest factions in the city.
It is said to be backed by a prominent figure from the Heavenly Origin Great World.
While selling exotic treasures, the Treasure Tower also purchases various treasures.
If in the future, you obtain any treasure, you can sell it here.
The Treasure Tower has always been reputable, offering fair prices, and no reports of deceitful practices have ever been heard."
After wandering for an hour, they passed by a large pavilion, and Zhang Feng introduced it to Lu Qing.
"Treasure Tower, huh?"
Looking at the tall building, Lu Qing appeared thoughtful.
He could sense extremely powerful arrays set up within the tower.
If they erupted, not even a Primordial Spirit Great Power could escape unscathed.
After strolling a while longer, listening to Zhang Feng’s explanations, Lu Qing gradually formed a plan in his mind.
He stopped the boy: "That will do, thank you for today. This Magic Talisman is your reward."
Saying that, he took out a Jade Talisman and handed it to Zhang Feng.
It was a low-grade Magic Talisman he had casually crafted back in his home world.
"Senior, I mustn’t. I already received a Magic Artifact from you before."
Zhang Feng waved his hands repeatedly, not daring to take the Jade Talisman.
