Under the bright sunshine, at the entrance of the exquisitely magnificent Nine Treasures, a figure in green clothes slowly stepped into the main hall.
After passing by the attendants, Xiao Shou walked straight to the counter and said to the hall manager, "Shopkeeper, do you accept medicinal pills here?"
"Mm. I wonder what kind of pills the guest wishes to sell?" Zhang Bozhi casually placed the jade slip in his hand onto the table.
The green clothes figure brushed a hand over the storage pouch at the waist, took out a white jade bottle, and placed it on the counter. "Ten mid-grade Qi Gathering Pills."
"Mid-grade Qi Gathering Pills are priced at five hundred low-grade spirit stones each. Ten pills would be five thousand low-grade spirit stones." Zhang Bozhi opened the jade bottle to inspect it.
When he saw the visitor give him a nod, he discreetly sized the person up.
The visitor looked about seventeen or eighteen years old with delicate features, a pale complexion, and unsteady breathing.
There was not even the cultivation of the first layer of Qi Refining as if the person had only just begun to drawing qi into the body.
He immediately understood and curled his lips slightly before continuing, "Would the guest like spirit stones? Or high-grade Life Rejuvenation Pills?"
"No need for high-grade ones. Ten bottles of the low-grade Restorarion Pills will do." The green clothes figure shook his head upon hearing this while suppressing the urge to cough that was rising in his throat.
"Low-grade Restorarion Pills cost ten low-grade spirit stones per pill. One bottle contains ten pills. In total, I will return four thousand low-grade spirit stones to you." Zhang Bozhi took out four thousand low-grade spirit stones and ten bottles of low-grade Restorarion Pills from his storage bracelet and placed them on the counter. "Please check and keep them."
The green clothes figure put the spirit stones and the medicine bottles on the counter into the storage pouch and said politely, "Many thanks, Shopkeeper. I will take my leave now."
"Mm." Zhang Bozhi responded indifferently and continued to examine the jade slip in his hand.
The green clothes figure did not mind the other party's indifference and walked out of Nine Treasures Pavilion with feigned calm.
Only after getting far away from that street did Xiao Shou let out a long breath. He then gently patting the chest and secretly rejoicing.
It was the first time taking action and it had gone smoothly.
No one had noticed that Xiao Shou was someone who had come from another world.
It seemed that the cultivation world was not as dangerous as imagined, perhaps even better than that previous world.
Thinking of this, Xiao Shou could not help but raise the head to look at the sky as if trying to see through it to the sapphire-like planet in memory. Yet only drifting white clouds were visible, along with distant magnificent palaces rising into the clouds and streaks of brilliantly colored flying lights.
His eyes immediately turn red after he realized once again that there was truly no way back.
Even if returning were possible, there would be no body left to rely on, because that body had already become food for a strange beast.
She was not a person of this world.
Originally, he had been an ordinary citizen of an panda country on the planet called Earth, named Xiao Shou.
However, the planet he had lived on experienced an unprecedented catastrophe not long ago, one that destroyed all things yet also granted all things the power to evolve.
He himself obtained an ability called Absolute Fusion and this ability was quite practical.
It could combine ten identical items into one and stacking them to elevate the item's grade.
It could also be used to experiment with formulas for fusion, though what item would be produced depended on luck.
However, this ability possessed no offensive power whatsoever and its improvement relied solely on accumulating the number of fusion that has been performed.
Such an ability was very useful in times of peace, but in the early days of the apocalypse it was nothing more than a useless skill.
He did not have enough strength to protect himself, nor did he have anyone to protect him.
His family had already… perished in the early days of the apocalypse.
Therefore, less than three months after the apocalypse descended, he also died under the attack of a strange beast.
When he awoke again, for reasons unknown, he had entered this body that shared his exact same name.
After sorting through the original owner's memories, he discovered that he had been reborn into a novel he had read before the apocalypse.
It was an extremely long cultivation novel with over millions words that was centered on a female protagonist.
He had become a minor supporting character who had already been cannon fodder for the heroine.
Speaking of which, the original owner was actually the very first character to be sacrificed by the heroine.
The novel was titled Longevity Love.
It was a story of a reborn female cultivator who repaid grudges and grievances, a truly satisfying tale of a powerful heroine.
The entire story began with the original owner's birthplace, Xiao Family Village.
Xiao Family Village was a small village under the rule of the Great Liang Kingdom in the mortal world.
Ten years ago, it was massacred by demonic cultivators, leaving only three survivors: the heroine Xiao Ran, her elder brother Xiao Yi, and the original owner Xiao Shou.
They were rescued by disciples of the Heavenly Void Sect and after it was discovered that all three of them possessed spiritual roots, they were brought back to the cultivation world to participate in the sect's disciple selection ceremony.
At the once-in-ten-years recruitment ceremony, after passing the trials, they were admitted into the sect.
Among them, Xiao Ran possessed a single water spiritual root and Xiao Yi possessed a single fire spiritual root.
Both had outstanding talent.
