Cultivation World, Market.

After learning about the rising prices, Liang Sheng naturally could not continue doing business at a loss. First, he borrowed three low-grade spirit stones from Chen Mo and gave them to the registration clerk at the administration office, and then he went out to prepare to exchange spirit stones with talismans.

With talismans at hand, Chen Mo naturally couldn’t decline the loan. As for choosing a cave mansion, that would require many spirit stones, and Liang Sheng still had to think about it.

However, he needed to gather some spirit stones first. Chen Mo followed Liang Sheng out, still somewhat bewildered.

He thought of Liang Sheng opening his backpack earlier to reveal the vermilion brush, cinnabar, and blank talisman paper, hesitated for a moment, and finally could not help but ask:

“So, Daoist Friend Zhou is actually a talisman maker?”

Liang Sheng didn’t refute upon hearing this. Chen Mo saw this and was silent for a short while before patting Liang Sheng’s shoulder and said, “Brother Zhou, don’t do this in the future. After all, wealth should not be flaunted.”

Then, without caring about Liang Sheng’s reaction, he picked a random sect shop and went in with Liang Sheng, his heart feeling complicated.

He initially thought that the other was also a loose cultivator and a mere fledgling who had just left his family. But he never expected that he would be such a low-profile tycoon.

After all, which talisman maker isn’t nourished by a host of resources? The taste in Chen Mo’s heart at this moment was indescribable.

But he was also puzzled. Why would the family allow such a treasure of a disciple to leave and fend for himself?

Could it be…

He didn’t continue thinking about it. Accompanying Liang Sheng in quickly exchanging ten spirit stones, he was taken aback when Liang Sheng handed him four spirit stones.

“I must thank Brother Zhou for enlightening me this time, or else 1 might have lost out. 1 hope Brother Zhou will not refuse. Perhaps 1 will need your help again in the future.”

Hearing Liang Sheng saying this, Chen Mo hesitated for a moment before accepting the spirit stones from Liang Sheng. “This friend, Brother Zhou, I have made.”

The relationship between the two seemed to have grown closer. Liang Sheng then took the opportunity to start asking about how the cave mansions worked.

“These cave mansions are actually houses in the market. However, every cave mansion has an appropriate array, like the Gathering Spirit Array, Isolation Array…

Of course, due to the different effects of the arrays, prices can vary. For example, a cave mansion with a common Gathering Spirit Array only requires twenty low-grade spirit stones a year…”

Chen Mo explained the situation with the cave mansions. It seemed that he himself had rented the cheapest mansion, which only needed twenty low-grade spirit stones a year.

Liang Sheng had the Attribute Panel Concealing Property within himself, so keeping his secret wasn’t a problem. But upon hearing about the Gathering Spirit Array, he couldn’t help but feel eager to try it out.

After explaining the cave mansion situation, Chen Mo prepared to take Liang Sheng to the administration office to rent a cave mansion which allowed for installment payments.

After all, loose cultivators are poor.

But at this moment, Liang Sheng turned back towards the shop. Chen Mo couldn’t help but feel puzzled. “Brother Zhou, you’re going in the wrong direction.”

“No, 1 have some more talismans that I can exchange for some spirit stones.”

Upon hearing this, Chen Mo was completely stunned. Immediately after, when Liang Sheng emerged from the shop, he already had a total of thirty-six low-grade spirit stones in his hand, including those from the previous exchange.

Seeing this, Chen Mo sighed softly, “Brother Zhou, don’t ever do this so easily in front of others in the future. After all, wealth should not be flaunted.”

This was the second time Chen Mo advised him. Liang Sheng laughed and said nothing, although these spirit stones seemed plentiful, they were insignificant to a Foundation Establishment Stage Cultivator.

In that case, Liang Sheng naturally wouldn’t hesitate to exchange them for spirit stones. After all, should he have to scrimp and sleep rough outside in the slums?

Moreover, this would also be a test for Chen Mo. If he had ideas he shouldn’t have, they would probably not need to establish a deeper friendship.

Fortunately, Chen Mo’s eyes just flashed surprised and then he brought Liang Sheng to rent a mansion for twenty low-grade spirit stones. The cave mansion was not far from Chen Mo’s own residence.

After a day’s busy work, he input his own spiritual energy to recognize the master and moved into the cave mansion with a spare jade slip.

The spare jade slip was prepared for when one would want someone else to be able to enter their cave mansion directly. Liang Sheng found it strange that people would be willing to let others in.

However, Liang Sheng soon stopped caring. As the saying goes, “Hiding in plain sight.” At this moment, befriending Chen Mo allowed him to better integrate into the market.

Just after finishing the mansion paperwork, Liang Sheng entered another shop. When he came out, his spirit stones were almost depleted, but he had acquired a wolf hair brush, top-quality vermilion ink, and talisman paper.

He could finally refine some better talismans.

Chen Mo didn’t find it strange, after all, Liang Sheng was a talisman maker, and his previous equipment seemed somewhat crude. It was understandable to change to better equipment.

However, he still felt envious at that moment. After all, talisman makers also needed talent. Some people had a success rate of less than five percent, while others could reach ten percent.

With Liang Sheng in his current situation, at least he seemed to have a ten percent rate of success. Wouldn’t that mean he could exchange talismans at a low price in the future?

From then on, Liang Sheng officially settled in the market. With the experienced Chen Mo around, he quickly got a grasp on the market.

There was an unwritten rule among the market, not to leave it without special circumstances or tasks. After all, there were no shortage of people who died outside the market every year, but there were almost no dangers in the market itself.

Using the name of the Three Sects and Six Orders was enough to deter small-time rogues from causing trouble. However, according to Chen Mo, in the past hundred years, there had been some friction between the Upper Pure Sect and Hua Tian Sect..
