Chapter 401: Chapter 217: Enemies on a Narrow Road
But after sending the message, he waited for a long time without seeing any response.
Li Yunjing understood that this guy must have gone into closed cultivation.
Yang Wenzheng had just advanced to the Foundation Establishment Realm not long ago and had participated in the True Disciple examination. Probably like himself, he hadn’t yet fully grasped the knowledge of Foundation Establishment Realm.
As soon as the major events were done and he became a True Disciple, Yang Wenzheng immediately chose to enter closed cultivation.
Judging by Yang Wenzheng’s character, they would probably not meet again for three to five years.
Thinking about this, Li Yunjing felt a sense of loss.
Advancing to the Foundation Establishment Realm is not the end, but the beginning.
Each time in closed cultivation, it would take several years—time in the Foundation Establishment Realm became less valuable.
Meetings between cultivators could no longer be counted by days but by years.
A few years, ten years, dozens of years—all these were common occurrences.
For this reason, feelings among cultivators were faded, and each cultivator was lonely.
Family ties, love, friendship—all were embellishments in life, not the essence of the path to transcendence.
Even master and disciple, Dao companions, parents, and children might not be the ones who could accompany someone to eternity.
"Alas! The Dao is uncertain, we cultivators must firm our Dao heart, cut through thorns and undertake the journey ahead bravely."
Li Yunjing sighed, his gaze becoming much firmer.
Since the connection with Yang Wenzheng was unreliable, he decided to purchase directly instead.
Recently, Li Yunjing was well off, and money was not an issue for him.
He had enough wealth to buy the "Cyan Cloud Ship" and did not care for other things, avoiding owing anyone a favor.
Thinking about this, Li Yunjing packed up and directly left "Qiuwu Manor."
He arrived at the "Seven Star Palace" teleportation array and used the free array to reach the Eastern Mountain Area.
The Eastern Mountain Area was the residence for most of the true disciples.
The lowest cultivation among the cultivators here was Inner Sect Disciple, and quite many were present, thus making the "East Splendor Market" the second-largest market in the Shenxiao Dao Sect.
It had the "Celestial Craft Hall" managing the "Celestial Commerce Shop."
This was the largest Celestial Craft Hall shop outside the Central Mountain Range.
You could almost purchase anything here.
Whether Tier One, Tier Two, or Tier Three!
Li Yunjing arrived in the Eastern Mountain Area via teleportation intending to visit the "Celestial Commerce Shop" to buy a flying ship.
Li Yunjing was already highly familiar with the Eastern Mountain Area.
"Mad Extreme Peak," "Rising Sun Peak," were places Li Yunjing frequently visited, and he was one of the important clients of "East Splendor Tower."
He once spent eighty thousand Low Grade Spirit Stones on a meal at "East Splendor Tower."
The well-known "East Splendor Tower," located in "East Splendor Market," was very familiar to Li Yunjing.
Previously, when Li Yunjing went to "East Splendor Tower" for drinks, he did not wander around "East Splendor Market" due to being financially constrained.
Without enough Spirit Stones, visiting such high-end trading places only increased his desire and made him feel relieved without seeing them.
Now, with financial prosperity, Li Yunjing could come here for some shopping.
During the day, the market was filled with Inner Sect Disciples everywhere.
On the grid streets, various shops lined up.
Among these shops, Li Yunjing saw the "Seven Stars Shop," which surely was a shop from Seven Stars Peak.
With a clear goal, Li Yunjing did not choose other shops and went straight to the "Celestial Commerce Shop."
As expected for the flagship shop of the Shenxiao Dao Sect, it boasted a nine-story tower.
Occupying the best location in "East Splendor Market."
In front of the "Celestial Commerce Shop" was the square of "East Splendor Market."
This was also the busiest place.
Despite the modest name, the "Celestial Commerce Shop" was actually grand.
This nine-story tower was not an ordinary building but a top-grade treasure artifact!
If a big figure from the Celestial Craft Hall willed it, they could summon the nine-story tower to fly away with just a thought.
With this nine-story tower, the safety here was beyond doubt.
Even if three or five Golden Core Realm cultivators attacked recklessly, it would take them at least three days to break through the defenses and loot the "Celestial Commerce Shop."
Li Yunjing looked at the tower with a hint of reverence.
He entered through the front door, and upon the first glance, he saw it was indeed crowded.
Entering the ten-thousand-square-meter first-floor hall, there were countless cultivators grouped in threes and fives.
This wasn’t just a small shop, but clearly a super mall.
In the hall, various counters of different sizes were distributed in an orderly manner.
These counters held all sorts of cultivation materials.
Li Yunjing glanced around; most of the items on this floor were for cultivators after the Sixth Layer of Qi Cultivation Realm.
Mostly high-grade Tier One magical artifacts.
As for other elixirs, talismans, arrays, puppets, the "Celestial Commerce Shop" also had portions.
Though in terms of quantity, quality, and price, they couldn’t compare with other shops.
Behind each counter, there was an attendant responsible for introducing the magical artifacts to customers.
The scene was significant; Li Yunjing looked around each counter nearby.
Swords, spears, halberds, axes, hooks, forks, various ornaments, even furniture—all were magical artifacts, making Li Yunjing enjoy the view immensely.
Particularly various furniture—desks, chairs, bookshelves, dining tables, washing stands, beds—all were high-grade magical artifacts.
This made Li Yunjing quite tempted.
Inside his "Qiuwu Manor," all furniture was mundane and couldn’t match his status at all.
