After ordering the meal, he browsed for a few more minutes and found a guild that sold magical treasures.
Today was the last day of the guild's guiding training, and tomorrow he would have to start fending for himself, heading out to level up, so he needed to prepare some things.
There was no need to worry too much about this, as they had dedicated teachers to teach them the basics of cultivation before awakening the body of data laws.
For newcomers undergoing their first training, besides the cultivation skills, they needed to prepare several standard items. He quickly browsed through and selected a few items to add to the shopping cart.
First was a defense treasure: the Profound Iron Bell, which cost 20 taels of silver.
Profound Iron Bell (Tier 3 Magical Treasure): A magical treasure made of profound iron, possessing extremely strong defense.
Attributes: Defense 2500, Mana conversion rate 10.
Equipment Requirements: Qi Refining Heart Skill level 10 or above in Profound Sect and Side Sect.
The next was an offensive magical treasure: the Three Yang Fan, which was slightly cheaper than the defense treasure, costing 18 taels of silver.
Three Yang Fan (Tier 3 Magical Treasure): A precious fan made from the Feather of the Three-legged Fire Crow, capable of unleashing three large fiery suns to harm enemies.
Attributes: Each fire sun deals 100 Fiery Sun Fire Magic Damage, magic damage bonus 20%, mana consumption 50, cooldown 3 seconds.
Equipment Requirements: Qi Refining Heart Skill level 10 or above in Profound Sect and Side Sect.
Small Transposition Talisman: After activation for 15 seconds, it teleports the user to a town within a 1000-kilometer range, with the ability to set a priority teleport point, costing 10 taels of silver each.
High-grade Spirit Recovery Elixir: Restores 600 mana within one second after consumption, costing 50 wen each. Bought two large bottles of 200, spending a total of 10 taels of silver.
Lastly, five disposable Celestial Thunder Pearl, which caused 2000 lightning and fire damage to enemies within a 20-meter diameter when thrown, costing 5 silver each, totaling 25 silver.
In total, he spent 83 taels of silver, using up about a third of his wealth.
Su Yu was not wealthy; before coming to the Blue Mountain Archipelago, he had a total of 3 taels of gold. Over the past three days, he spent three Refining Jade Talismans to gain double experience, costing 60 silver. After deducting for miscellaneous expenses, he had 2 taels of gold, 38 taels of silver, and 569 wen left.
Those 3 taels of gold were the last support from his parents. After this, he would most likely have to rely on himself to make a living.
The Blue Mountain Archipelago was millions of kilometers away from humanity's homeland, which had been cultivated for a hundred thousand years, and a round trip was extremely difficult. The ticket price for a transoceanic giant ship was over a hundred taels of gold, so there was no hope of returning until he made a name for himself.
And returning wouldn't help either, since only his retired parents were in the human hinterland. Most of his siblings were in the Blue Mountain Archipelago.
Additionally, his innate talent was not the best in the family. His parents had already given all the relationships and assets they had worked for decades to his most gifted second brother. The other siblings received only a few taels of gold to send them off.
Su Yu neither envied nor resented this.
Because it was very common, in Bian An, most couples with no significant achievements would retire and have a large number of children in the hopes that one of them would be an outstanding descendant to inherit all their connections and assets, surpassing them and bringing the family to a higher level.
Su Yu had a dozen or so older siblings, and the most gifted among them was his second brother, of whom his father said had an innate root and bone above twenty, with innate insight exceeding thirty points, worthy of being called a genius.
He had arrived at the Blue Mountain Archipelago over ten years earlier and successfully joined a major sect called the Xuanzhen Sect.
When Su Yu arrived at the Blue Mountain Archipelago, he heard that his second brother had already been accepted as a disciple by a sect elder with a level as high as 170 and had married the master's daughter, developing exceptionally well.
As the most accomplished family member, while taking most of the family's resources, he also had a responsibility to look after his siblings if he succeeded in the future.
As long as he successfully crossed the first Great Celestial Tribulation to achieve Loose Immortal status, both his power and position would soar, and as his siblings, they would legitimately gain benefits.
Without saying more, just having such an accomplished Loose Immortal sibling would immediately attract the attention of the guild's higher-ups. Being promoted to an elite member would be the least he could expect. If he was capable and ambitious enough, becoming a core member or earning a middle management position wouldn't be a problem.
Besides, he was still young and had the opportunity to recommend himself into the Xuanzhen Sect with his brother's endorsement.
But all this depended on his second brother's success and whether he could successfully overcome the celestial tribulation to ascend to another level.
Furthermore, it depended on whether his second brother cared about sibling bonds. If he didn't hold other brothers in his heart, then...
Su Yu wasn't too concerned about this. Having lived two lives, he knew in his heart that everything ultimately depended on oneself, and one should never place their hopes in others.
Moreover, although his talent was average, with the aid of his Golden Finger, his future achievements would definitely surpass those of his second brother, without the need to depend on anyone.
The city's efficiency was very high. In less than fifteen minutes, the fast food and items he ordered were delivered one by one.
The Celestial Thunder Pearl, Small Transposition Talisman, and Spirit Revitalizing Pill were placed in his personal space, and the two magical treasures were equipped in the magical treasure slots.
In Bian An, once all cultivators awakened, they initially possessed one Flying Sword slot and four Magical Treasure slots, allowing them to simultaneously equip four magical treasures for battle.
After overcoming the first Great Celestial Tribulation, the Flying Sword slot increased by one, the Magical Treasure slots by two, and the personal space expanded from 20 slots to 40 slots.
Subsequently, each time a Great Celestial Tribulation was overcome, the Flying Sword slot and Magical Treasure slots increase.
Additionally, everyone had a fixed ten equipment slots for head, necklace, body, belt, feet, gloves, two rings, and two accessories.
However, unlike in games, in a Xianxia world, the mainstream were cultivation, Taoist techniques, divine techniques, and flying swords, while equipment was not as important.
