《Dao: Journey to the Top of the Universe》C132. Stay in Tianhai City
Advertisement
Tianhai City, Ying State, Zhao Kingdom. Light flashed across the city's teleportation square, and a green clothed cultivator's illusory body slowly became real within the Teleportation Circle.
"Welcome to Tianhai City." Outside the Teleportation Circle, two disciples guarding the Teleportation Circle scanned the place with their soul power. When they sensed the cultivation of the newcomer, they immediately showed a look of respect.
Hearing this, the cultivator in green showed some joy. After half a month, he finally arrived!
This person was Shiao Chen.
Under the respectful eyes of the two disciples, he nodded slightly, and then disappeared in the blink of an eye.
Tianhai City, one of the largest cultivation cities in the eastern part of Ying State, had at least a hundred thousand cultivators, which was extremely prosperous.
"No wonder it is a great city. The cultivation of cultivators here is several levels higher than those in Beihua State!" Shiao Chen scanned simply with his soul power and found at least twenty Foundation Establishment cultivators. Although most of them were at the early stage, he was still amazed in his heart. It was indeed worthy of being the number one state in cultivation in Zhao Kingdom. It was really extraordinary.
"The 'Devil Corpse Method' was handed down to me by my sister. I have the corpse of a cultivator of Gold Core, and I also have the rest of other substances in my storage bag, but the Ghost Mist Flowers and magicite diamonds are very rare." Shiao Chen frowned slightly and said to himself, "Now there was still a period of time before the time set by Mu Family. I can stay here for a while and see if I can get anything."
Just as he lowered his head and pondered, a cultivator dressed in grey, whose eyes were drifting, stopped in front of him and said respectfully, "Excuse me, elder."
Shiao Chen raised his head and frowned, "What's up?"
Hu San felt relieved that Shiao Chen didn't ask him to leave immediately. It seemed that this business was likely to succeed. He hurriedly said, "I wonder if you want to buy all kinds of items in Hai Tian City. I've stayed here for over ten years and know every place. If I lead the way, I will save you a lot of time."

"Well, how should I pay you?" Shiao Chen said slowly while touching his chin.
"I only need three Low-grade spiritual stones every day. I can follow you all day and lead you the way according to the requirements." Hu San gritted his teeth and offered a high price. In his opinion, Shiao Chen could reach the early stage of Foundation Establishment at such a young age. He obviously had special resources, so he wouldn't care about the amount of Low-grade spiritual stones.
However, if he knew that Shiao Chen's cultivation was only a step away from the Paragon of Foundation Establishment and his cultivation of soul was comparable to that of a cultivator at the early stage of Gold Core, he would not dare to have such a thought.
"I'll give you five Low-grade Spiritual Stones every day. Don't take me around randomly. Just go to merchants with powerful backgrounds and rich supplies." Shiao Chen said in a low voice after thinking for a while.
He was not unfamiliar with cultivators like Hu San. They could usually get some benefits from the shopkeeper by bringing guests to these shops. Shiao Chen didn't want to waste time, so he naturally had to remind him.
"Thank you, senior!" Hu San was overjoyed and nodded, "What do you want to buy? I'll take you there."
"Let's buy some ingredients for refining weapons first." Shiao Chen said blandly with a flash in his eyes.
"Elder, please follow me." Hu San mused for a while and then led the way forward.
The Weapon Refining Pavilion was located on one street of magic weapon refining materials in the east of the city, occupying the head of the east. The three floors were not less than a thousand square meters. On the tablet, there were the three words, "Weapon Refining Pavilion", which was majestic.
Standing under the plaque, Shiao Chen couldn't help frowning slightly. These three words were probably left by the cultivator of Gold Core who was cultivating swordplay. The ordinary evildoers would feel a chill in his heart when he saw this, and would not dare to have any wild thoughts.

When the two of them entered the door, a handsome young man in brocade clothes came to welcome them. He glanced at Hu San, then walked him away and saluted Shiao Chen directly, "Welcome to Refining Pavilion. Can I help you?"
Shiao Chen nodded slightly and waved his hand, "Let me take a look first. I'll call you when I need to."
"OK, help yourselves, please." The young man dressed in brocade robes saluted and left.
This young man was only at the fourth level of Qi Refining, but when he faced Shiao Chen, his attitude was appropriate. Although he was very courteous, he was not obsequious.
"It seems that this shop has a great background. Good. Maybe I really can get something."
Shiao Chen walked slowly in the hall on the first floor with his hands behind his back. Hu San was a little restrained and followed behind him. Occasionally, his eyes fell on the objects under the crystal cover of the counter, and his eyes were full of longing.
Silver under seabed for Millennium, and its ductility and adhesivity were extremely good. After solidifying, it was extremely hard, not inferior to ordinary Gold Eessence, which was the best material for repairing the magic weapon.
Taiyi Gold Essence, treasure of Geng Gold, adds its powder when refining spirit tools magic weapon, which could greatly improve the durability of the treasure.
Ice Silkworm silk, which was one of the Top-grade materials used to refine magic clothes. It had strong resistance against fire magic, and was tough enough to fight against ordinary spirit tools.
The container with patterns of beasts was incomparably hard, and it could be used to refine a one-off magic weapon Cloud Piercing Arrow, which was a great threat to cultivators of Foundation Establishment.
............
Taking a slow walk around, Shiao Chen glanced at these precious ingredients and couldn't help frowning slightly. Although these materials were extraordinary, they were useless to him.
"Hmm?" However, right at that moment, Shiao Chen's eyes fell into the crystal cover of a counter at the corner. He looked at the Core of the khaki monster while his eyes were shining.
"I would like to get this. How much?"
Nearby, a young man in brocade clothes was just about to step forward when a twenty year old cultivator beside him gave a soft shout and said, "The Core of the turtle is pretty good. I'll take it. Give it a price."
Hearing this, Shiao Chen's face changed, and then his eyes turned gloomy. "I have already asked for the price. I'm afraid it's not reasonable for you to do this."
"I will never give up on what I like." The cultivator who called himself third young master Mo looked at Shiao Chen with a baleful look in his eyes, "Besides, the Core of the turtle hadn't been sold to you yet. Why can't I buy it? I kindly reminded you, don't overestimate yourself and better not compete with me, otherwise you could be killed!"
Such a blatant threat made the other cultivators in the shop panicked slightly. They all lowered their heads when they sensed the power of the Foundation Establishment's peak Middle-stage.
A cold look flashed across Shiao Chen's eyes.
Right now, an old man in black slowly walked down from the second floor. He had only one eye but he looked grim. He snorted coldly and said, "I was the custodian of Weapon Refining Pavilion and fighting was forbidden here. People fighting here are considered disrespectful to the Pavilion. If you go on, I'll force you out." As he spoke, the momentum of the old man burst out instantly. He was a Foundation Establishment cultivator.

A D&D Gamer in Garweeze Wurld
He doesn't know how he got here, and while the trappings are familiar, he doesn't actually know where he is, either. From the perspective of those around him, Duromar is a half-ogre barbarian, an uncivilized brute by any standard you care to use. But from his perspective, he's a character created in a gaming system. From either one, he must live within the rules of that system. This is the story of a gamer who ends up in a game that's just a bit off from what he knows. ---- I wanted to write something a little bit old-school. Most of the LitRPG I've found seems to be based on computer RPG styled stories. Progression through levels is fast, and depending on the game, skills and even attributes can be trained with or without class levels. This wasn't true with the older pen and paper games, and that's the style of leveling I wanted to write.
