CHAPTER 1352: CHAPTER 1352: EXCHANGING IMMORTAL TALISMAN

Xu Nian followed Li Tian to a guesthouse.

The two quickly settled in.

The guesthouse wasn’t cheap but not expensive either; one Mid-grade Immortal Essence Stone for a night.

Compared to the city entrance fee, this was much cheaper.

After settling in, they headed directly to the marketplace.

This marketplace was similar to the one in Giant Sword City, with many loose cultivators setting up stalls.

The only difference here was that there were more stalls, the variety was richer, and the goods were more precious.

Here, there were almost no items for cultivators; mostly things used by immortals.

"Come take a look, this Black Cloud Shield is a Mid-grade Immortal Shield, extremely tough, even Top-Grade Immortal Artifacts can’t break it. It also has a restriction that can reflect some attacks."

"Heh, my Red Dragon Spear is more powerful. Any Mid-grade Immortal Shield in front of my Red Dragon Spear is like a piece of paper; it pierces through easily, and it contains powerful Nine-flavor Flames True Fire!"

...

The surrounding vendors were madly boasting about their goods.

Although these Immortal Artifacts were as graded as described, their quality wasn’t as impressive as they boasted.

Anyone with a little understanding of Immortal Artifacts wouldn’t be fooled by them.

Of course, there were also some loose cultivators sitting there, saying nothing.

Unless asked for the price, they wouldn’t even bother responding.

"Brother Xu, what do you think of these goods?" Li Tian asked with a smile.

"They’re varied, but hardly any fine items." Xu Nian shook his head.

"Haha, Brother Xu indeed has keen senses; these indeed don’t contain many precious treasures, occasionally one might snag a valuable item, but the chances are very slim." Li Tian laughed.

"Brother Li, this Tianjian City should have an Immortal Treasure Pavilion, right? Why don’t we go there and take a look?" Xu Nian asked.

"Alright!" Li Tian nodded.

Thus, the two went to Tianbao Pavilion once more.

Li Tian took out a token, and the nearby manager’s eyes immediately lit up.

"Young Master, please come inside." The manager said warmly.

"He’s my friend, he’s with me." Li Tian smiled, pointing to Xu Nian.

"Ah, you are a friend of a distinguished guest. Pardon my earlier negligence," the manager quickly responded respectfully to Xu Nian.

Xu Nian was somewhat surprised.

Just what was Li Tian’s identity?

The Immortal Treasure Pavilion manager treated him with such hospitality?

He had just witnessed this manager being indifferent to a mid-stage Profound Immortal powerhouse.

"Thank you, manager," Xu Nian replied promptly.

The manager smiled, glanced at Xu Nian, and developed a bit of goodwill towards him.

Being friends with this young master and yet so humble suggests an extraordinary background.

"Manager Li, this time be sure to bring out some good stuff, don’t try to fool me like last time." Li Tian said with a laugh.

After saying that, he walked into the Immortal Treasure Pavilion on his own.

"Young Master Li, you’re putting me on the spot; with your discerning eye, our shop scarcely has treasures worthy of you." Manager Li said with a bitter smile.

The person in front had expensive tastes, demanding Top-grade Immortal Artifacts and Immortal Pills. Even for rare items like Immortal Talismans and Immortal Arrays, they also wanted top-quality ones.

Though their Immortal Treasure Pavilion wasn’t small, producing Top-grade Immortal Talismans, which could threaten Golden Immortals, wasn’t possible.

"Haha, I won’t trouble you. I’m mainly accompanying Brother Xu this time. Brother Xu, whatever you need, just say it." Li Tian said, smiling.

"Yes, Mr. Xu, whatever you need, just let us know. We have Immortal Pills, Immortal Elixirs, Immortal Artifacts, Immortal Treasures, Immortal Talismans, Immortal Arrays, Immortal Techniques, Immortal Laws, as long as it’s not like Young Master Li asking for top-grade immorés." Manager Li said with a smile, looking at Xu Nian.

Xu Nian’s eyes suddenly brightened upon hearing this.

"Manager Li, do you have Taiqing Holy Water here?" Xu Nian asked.

"Pfft!"

Manager Li instantly spat out his drink.

What?

Taiqing Holy Water?

Did he hear wrongly?

Even Li Tian beside him looked curiously at Xu Nian, showing an expression of surprise.

"What’s wrong? Is this item very precious?" Xu Nian asked.

Upon hearing this, Li Tian couldn’t help but roll his eyes.

Manager Li also wore an awkward expression.

"It seems Mr. Xu doesn’t know the preciousness of Taiqing Holy Water. Are you aware of the value of Immortal Marrow?" Manager Li countered.

"Yes, a drop of First-grade Immortal Marrow is equal to one Kunlun Immortal Liquid, equivalent to a thousand pieces of Top-grade Immortal Essence Stones," Xu Nian replied.

"Correct, one drop of First-grade Immortal Marrow equals a thousand pieces of Top-grade Immortal Essence Stones. Two-grade can exchange for ten thousand top-grade immortal essence stones, three-grade for a hundred thousand, four-grade for a million, five-grade for ten million, six-grade for a hundred million measures, and Taiqing Holy Water’s value is equivalent to sixth-grade Immortal Marrow." Manager Li said.

Xu Nian’s brows instantly furrowed.

Is the value of Taiqing Holy Water equal to sixth-grade Immortal Marrow?

Does that mean one drop requires a billion Top-grade Immortal Essence Stones?

The total wealth he possesses, combined with what Li Tian gave him, amounts to only sixty pieces.

What a vast disparity!

"Does your pavilion have this item? I can’t buy it now, but I will earn Immortal Essence Stones," Xu Nian said urgently.

"Of course not. Forget our Tianjian Sect; the entire Tianjian Immortal Domain may not possibly have someone with it. It’s too precious." Manager Li replied.

Li Tian gave it some thought but remained silent.

Xu Nian showed a face of disappointment.

But he quickly came to terms; he knew that finding Taiqing Holy Water wouldn’t be possible that soon.

"Manager Li, do you have Flying Immortal Artifacts here?" Xu Nian asked with a smile.

"We do, but we don’t have top-grade flying Immortal Artifacts, though there’s one Top-grade." Manager Li replied with a smile.

"Then hurry and bring it out." Li Tian said with a smile.

"Someone, bring out the Five Elements Plate." Manager Li immediately instructed the beautiful maid next to him.

Shortly, the beautiful maid brought a valuable box.

Manager Li opened the box, and an exquisitely refined Five Elements Plate appeared before Xu Nian and Li Tian.

"This Flying Immortal Artifact is called the Five Elements Plate, which serves as both Flight and Defensive, and Attack Artifact simultaneously. It’s a rare multifunctional Top-Grade Immortal Artifact. In flight, it can achieve Luoxian Realm Peak Level when fully activated, with defense capable of withstands peak Profound Immortal’s full attack. As for the attack, the edges around are extremely sharp; once activated, the power is also impressive." Manager Li introduced.

"Certainly considered the finest among Top-Grade Immortal Artifacts." Li Tian remarked affirmatively.

Xu Nian nodded approvingly.

Its flight speed comparable to a full-power flight-speed of Luoxian Peak Level; this flight speed is exceptional.

"What’s the price?" Li Tian inquired.

"Thirty million Low-grade Immortal Essence Stones, equivalent to thirty pieces of Top-grade Immortal Essence Stones." Manager Li said with a smile.

"Thirty million Low-grade Immortal Essence Stones isn’t much, but also quite a bit. Manager Li, can it be a little cheaper?" Li Tian asked with a smile.

"This way, since Young Master Li asked, I’ll accept twenty-five pieces of Top-grade Immortal Essence Stones." Manager Li said with a smile.

"Thank you, Manager Li. Do you have any Top-Grade Immortal Talismans?" Xu Nian asked.

"Of course, but Top-grade Immortal Talismans usually cost ten times the price of an Immortal Artifact, meaning a Top-grade Immortal Talisman matches the price of a Top-grade Immortal Artifact. Can Mr. Xu accept this price?" Manager Li asked.

"Ten times?" Xu Nian expressed surprise.

Li Tian nodded beside him.

This is how the entire Immortal Realm operates.

"Then this should be exchanged, right?" Xu Nian reluctantly replied.

He had to bring out an Immortal Saber.

This was one of the few six Immortal Artifacts from the Immortal Treasure from Tianlan Star he acquired.

"An Immortal Saber? A top-grade?" Manager Li’s eyes instantly lit up, showing a shocked expression.

This Top-grade Immortal Saber could rival their pavilion treasure.

Li Tian was also surprised.
