I Cultivate Passively Novel - Chapter 326
Chapter 326 Female Daemons
After a while, Zhou Feng finally found a place to stay in Celestial Lake City, a house with a small courtyard.
Although it wasn’t very big, it was suitable for a person to live alone.
The most important thing was that this house had a small courtyard and a water tank in the courtyard.
It was very in line with Zhou Feng’s taste.
The only troublesome thing was that although this small house was in a remote location, the price was very high.
1,000 Jade Sword Coins were needed per month.
This Jade Sword Coin was a kind of currency forged by the Jade Sword Holy Land, and it had a special mark and aura inside.
It was basically very difficult to imitate, and the exchange ratio with Spirit Stones was 1:10.
1 Jade Sword Coin could be exchanged for 10 standard Spirit Stones.
In other words, Zhou Feng had to pay 10,000 Spirit Stones as the room fee every month.
It was simply ridiculous!
This simple house only cost 10,000 Spirit Stones per month.
There were so many houses in Celestial Lake City, and all of them were the assets of the Jade Sword Holy Land.
How many Spirit Stones did they collect every month?
‘So damn expensive!
Thinking of this, Zhou Feng couldn’t help but feel a pang in his heart.
Although the suppression of the Nine Dragons Spirit-Locking Formation finally disappeared in this house, and it even had quite a bit of Spiritual Qi supply, it was still quite a bit lacking compared to the unit price of 10,000 Spirit Stones.
However, this wasn’t without any benefits.
As long as he rented this house, it meant that Zhou Feng would become a temporary resident of Celestial Lake City.
Many conveniences followed. For example, he could accept some of the missions issued by the City Lord Manor.
The missions issued by the City Lord Manor varied, but without exception, the rewards were very generous.
Many foreign cultivators put in a lot of effort to become residents of Celestial Lake City.
It was largely because of these missions.
As long as they could accept the missions distributed by the Jade Sword Holy Land, they would be able to obtain stable Spirit Stones.
This was a critical matter for most cultivators.
This was because most cultivators didn’t have any other skills apart from fighting.
But here in Celestial Lake City, would you be able to defeat the Nine Dragons Spirit-Locking Formation even if you were able to fight?
Not to mention Purple Mansion cultivators, even Divine Ability experts could only obediently kneel here.
Thus, obtaining a stable amount of Spirit Stones was something that most vagabond cultivators had to consider.
In fact, from a certain point of view, those vagabond cultivators who lived in Celestial Lake City could already be considered non-staff members of the Jade Sword Holy Land.
In addition to accepting missions, there were many medicinal pills, secret manuals, techniques, spiritual artifacts, and other things.
They also needed proof of residence in Celestial Lake City to be able to purchase them.
Of course, this was only limited to shops that the Jade Sword Holy Land specially opened.
The shops opened by other vagabond cultivators were not within this limited scope.
It was naturally possible to open a shop in Celestial Lake City. Compared to the Jade Sword Holy Land’s own shops, vagabond cultivators had to pay a fixed tax to open a shop here.
In other words, regardless of whether there was a profit or not, they had to pay a fixed amount of Spirit Stones every month.
Zhou Feng actually intended to resume his old business and rely on pill refinement to earn some Spirit Stones.
That was why he had chosen to rent this house with a small courtyard.
“I really didn’t expect it. I’m actually going to run around for Spirit Stones…’
He shook his head and began to plan how to earn more Spirit Stones.
During this period, the effect of Zhou Feng’s soul travel to the great void was not good at all.
It seemed that without the assistance of spiritual items, breaking through to the Divine Ability realm could only be an extravagant hope.
And spiritual items that assisted the soul travel to the great void were basically costly. Therefore, earning Spirit Stones became Zhou Feng’s primary task.
Fortunately, he was not in a hurry now. In any case, he did not have any enemies now.
His lifespan was also very long. He could completely experience life slowly.
‘Also, the Celestial Lake Conference will be held on these two days. There’s no rush.’
Zhou Feng was not familiar with many of Celestial Lake City’s rules. If he opened his shop rashly, he would likely end up losing everything
He might as well go for a stroll in the next few days.
Then, after attending the Celestial Lake Conference and the Celestial Lake Auction, he would see what to do.
Thinking of this, Zhou Feng could not help but think of the keepsake that Jiang Yi had given him.
This keepsake could be said to be worth 1,000 coins. This thing was equivalent to a ticket.
After all, this Celestial Lake Conference was not something just anyone could participate
in.
Other than the Jade Sword Holy Land’s own distribution, there was also a need to use Spirit Stones to buy it.
It was said to be sold for at least 100,000 Spirit Stones sold outside. There was a price but no market.
“Forget it. Big Yellow, let’s go out for a walk.”
Zhou Feng was too lazy to think too much, so he brought Big Yellow out for a walk.
Celestial Lake City was extremely lively at this time because of the Celestial Lake Conference.
A large number of cultivators poured into Celestial Lake City.
With more people, it would naturally stimulate consumption.
There were all kinds of stalls on both sides of the street.
These stalls were fixed, and they also had to pay a fixed tax every day.
And even so, many stalls couldn’t be taken down without a certain relationship.
This kind of meticulous management was simply comparable to the big cities in Zhou Feng’s previous life.
It was completely different from the rough management method of Heavenly Star City.
In any case, Celestial Lake City gave Zhou Feng a terrifying feeling.
He could squeeze out a large amount of Spirit Stones as much as possible.
“That’s… a Daemon?”
Zhou Feng brought Big Yellow and wandered around the streets like an old cadre. Then, he saw a few Daemons.
Speaking of land Daemons, he was not as familiar with them as he was with aquatic creatures.
After all, whether it was Heavenly Star City or Celestial Lake City, they were all surrounded by human territory.
There were no Daemons at all.
Now, he finally saw the real land Daemons.
They saw two young girls tied together, with a pair of rabbit ears on their heads, looking very pitiful.
‘Appraising Eye, open.’ [Female Snow Rabbil: A Snow Rabbit with a highly ordinary bloodline that can take human form. Its strength is low, but it can produce a special kind of fur.
This kind of fur can withstand extremely low temperatures.)
The Appraising Eye is indeed powerful.
Zhou Feng thought, ‘These two girls are actually Snow Rabbits in human form. They were captured by human cultivators and are sold here.’
Capturing Daemon slaves was a very normal practice in the eyes of human cultivators.
It was even the same in the eyes of the Daemons.
That was because the Daemons also long-term captured human slaves to their own territory.
However, the Daemon slaves captured by human cultivators were usually lower-level Daemons like the Snow Rabbit because of safety issues.
They were basically used as female slaves or maidservants.
As for powerful Daemons, only those mighty figures dared to capture them.
After all, everyone was afraid that these Daemons would suddenly bite their master one day.
“There isn’t much Demonic Qi. This look of pity is quite attractive!”
“Indeed! They look like twins! This is quite rare!”
“That’s right! And they can produce fur. They aren’t completely useless…”
Before Zhou Feng arrived, there were already many cultivators gathered there.
They started to comment while Zhou Feng hid behind to watch the show.
After all, this kind of practice was new to him.
