The Path to Becoming Immortal

"Oh, Miss Gu is here, why didn't you notify me. Come in quickly! Come in quickly."

A fat-headed man with sharp eyes saw the two of them at a glance, pushed away a beautiful woman in his arms, and immediately jumped up to meet them.

"Uncle Long, long time no see. You look younger and younger."

As he spoke, Gu Xiao looked inside with a half-smile, and there was a beautiful woman inside. The woman was standing quietly aside with her head bowed in a nervous manner.

Ning Ping also took a clear look inside the room. There were not many people in the room, including the waiter, there were only three or five people, who were waiting with their heads down.

There are not many items sold in the store, but they are of various kinds, including elixirs, weapons, etc., and the whole store is like a grocery store.

"Hey, miss, you're joking. Let's show uncle a good look. Hey, he's getting more and more beautiful."

Uncle Long kept looking at Gu Xiao as he spoke, and inadvertently glanced at Ning Ping, only to find that the other person was ordinary.

"He is one of my father's subordinates who has been with me since he was a child. He is now in charge of Wangyuan City's shop affairs." Gu Xiao said calmly.

Uncle Long's expression moved slightly at this moment, and then he looked at Ning Ping secretly, probably sensing Gu Xiao's move.

After some polite greetings, a few people sat down in a nearby seating area, and tea was immediately served.

"I wonder why Miss came here this time?" Uncle Long also asked curiously.

"To do something small, by the way, help me figure out the situation in this place, the faster the better."

As Gu Xiao spoke, he handed over a jade slip.

After Uncle Long took it, his face became solemn.

"Dragon Tooth Reef! Miss, why are you asking about this place?" Uncle Long asked with a puzzled look on his face.

"Are you familiar with this place?" Gu Xiao didn't answer, but asked instead.

"I'm not very familiar with it, but I've heard that it's nearly a few months' journey from here. It can be said that it's in the deep sea. It's extremely dangerous along the way. Almost no one would go there."

Uncle Long's eyes flashed slightly and he said solemnly.

"Then you can inquire again. Keep it secret and don't show it around. I will ask for it tomorrow." Gu Xiao said without any doubt.

"Yes, I understand." Although he was doubtful, Uncle Long agreed directly, but his eyes kept sizing up Ning Ping.

"Excuse me, I have a magic weapon here, will you take it?" At this time, a thin golden elixir stage monk came in.

"Oh, sir, we opened the door for business, of course we have to keep the magic weapon." Seeing the business coming, Uncle Long's eyes lit up and he secretly apologized to the two of them and went up to them.

For this reason, Gu Xiao had no intention of blaming him, and even motioned to Ning Ping to watch the fun together.

"Then look at how many spiritual stones my magic weapon is worth." As the monk came in, he looked around and handed over a beautiful wooden box.

As Uncle Long opened the wooden box and looked at it, Ning Ping also saw what was inside.

It was a set of formation flags, which looked unusually simple, and faintly emitted bursts of energy fluctuations. It looked quite impressive.

"Brother, you can't call this a magic weapon, it's just a high-grade magic weapon!" Uncle Long looked at it carefully and said in surprise.

Judging from the fluctuations of the energy emitted from this set of formation flags, it is indeed a magical weapon, but it has also reached the peak of the magical weapon. Moreover, refining this set of magical weapons is also quite difficult, time-consuming and labor-intensive.

Therefore, it is not an exaggeration to call it a magic weapon. Of course, Uncle Long's insistence on calling it a magic weapon is also correct.

"Then how many spiritual stones are you willing to collect?" The monk frowned slightly, but asked directly without making any rebuttal.

"This formation has a total of sixteen formation flags. Counting a high price of five hundred spiritual stones, the total is eight thousand."

Uncle Long quickly reported the purchase price.

Ning Ping secretly smacked his lips when he heard this. Zhen Qi told the truth that Ning Ping had actually wanted to do something for a few years.

However, I have never come across a suitable one, but often for ordinary things, even if calculated based on the number of formation flags, one formation flag costs at least a thousand spiritual stones.

Now this person's formation flag has almost reached the magic weapon level, so the price should be even more amazing.

Of course, buying and selling are also different, but the difference is not so big. But thinking about the specialness of Wangyuan City, I suddenly had concerns in my heart.

"No, this is too cheap. Can we order more?" When the thin monk heard this, he suddenly looked embarrassed.

But as soon as the words came out, Uncle Long's eyes lit up, there was something exciting! The other party turned around and left without hearing the price. Instead, he started talking about the price, which meant that he had already asked elsewhere.

"Hey, brother, I also know that life is not easy, and it is even more difficult for us to do business here. If this is not the case, I will add five hundred spirit stones. Do you think it will work? Otherwise, you can go to other places and ask. ”

Uncle Long looked embarrassed and made a difficult concession.

"This..." The monk suddenly became entangled. After hesitating for a while, he clasped his fists and said, "Shopkeeper, this price is too low. Let me think about it again!"

Just when the other party turned around and wanted to leave, Ning Ping shouted.

"Please stay, I may have a look at this flag."

Hearing this, the monk looked happy and said, "Okay, take a look, this is really a good thing! If I didn't need the spiritual stone urgently, I wouldn't have planned to sell it at all."

After saying that, he came to the private room and respectfully handed over the wooden box in his hand. The dignified Jindan monk looked like a newcomer who had just entered the world of cultivation.

Ning Ping grabbed the wooden box and opened it to see sixteen small and exquisite formation flags lying inside.

His consciousness moved slightly, and after scanning it, there was no doubt that it was a set of formation flags.

"Fellow Daoist, this formation is called the Cloud and Mist Strange Barrier Formation. When you are in the formation, you can control the entire formation to be covered with clouds and mist, which can cut off the consciousness of the enemy."

"It covers a range of dozens of miles. Whether it is for fighting against enemies or protecting caves, it is an excellent item."

Seeing Ning Ping carefully checking, the monk patiently introduced it.

"How much do you want to sell it for?" Ning Ping said lightly after checking it.

"Two... fifteen thousand, do you think it's okay?"

The monk was happy to see that the other party asked him to bid, but he was worried again when he saw that the other party didn't even look at him.

"If you want~ or ten thousand is fine!" Seeing that Ning Ping was still holding a formation flag and constantly flipping through it, he couldn't help but shout the price to ten thousand spirit stones.

In fact, this was not Ning Ping's deliberate manipulation, but he was just excited to see the prey. In fact, even if the other party offered twenty thousand, Ning Ping still wanted to take it down.

"Shopkeeper Long, I wonder if this is in accordance with the rules!" Ning Ping was slightly stunned after hearing this. Just when he was about to agree, he suddenly turned his head and asked Uncle Long beside him.

"Here~ I'll give you exactly 10,000 spirit stones." But before Uncle Long could reply, Gu Xiao beside him directly put a pile of spirit stones on the table.

Uncle Long, who saw this scene, looked at Gu Xiao and then at the ordinary boy with his eyes open, and he also muttered in his heart.

"Thank you~ Thank you!" The monk hurriedly put the spirit stones on the table into the storage bag.

"Goodbye! Goodbye!" He even clasped his fists and bowed, and left in a hurry.

At this point, this set of formation flags has become Ning Ping's property.
