60 Chapter 60 – Qinglu Token
Zhu Xuan and the prisoners he saved cleaned up the battlefield, and he burnt all the bandits' corpse leaving no trace behind.
He also realized he can't use the same method anymore since he is sure the method of his killing must have spread to the all the places of the organization behind the experiment by now or it will be very soon. He needs to think of new ways for the next mission and need to be extra careful because there might be stronger opponents next time.
He led the people who he saved to the fishing village and then he left towards a city nearby after asking the direction from the village people.
He finished the mission in three days and it is only the fourth day now and he was not in any urgency to end the mission since he is already delayed anyway to reach Caifu city. He travelled for a day and reached the city next day morning.
He booked a room in an inn and asked the owner about the details of his current location. This city is under the control of Thousand Forest Kingdom and under the same dynasty of last two missions, Thunder God Dynasty.
He realized the missions are definitely related to something happening in the shadows of Thunder God dynasty and the organization behind the experiments is definitely planning something bigger. He needed to find more about any recent abnormalities in the dynasty because this will help him in the future missions.
After getting more details about where he can buy resources for his cultivation, Zhu Xuan came to his room. He cleaned himself up and started reading the scrolls.
The first scroll was about how to improve your physical condition by pushing your body beyond the limits. It did have two techniques about how to strengthen your hands and legs by practicing something called martial skill.
Zhu Xuan learned out martial artists back in Earth but never met one personally and wondered if it's related to those martial artists.
The technique also explained how once a cultivator practice the technique it will enlarge the acupuncture points and enlarge the meridians, but there are higher chances of damaging the meridians in your hands and legs and losing their function.
He understood this may be rough technique or maybe an incomplete technique which hasn't practiced normally and thought he should learn and study about strengthening meridians in the future and kept the scroll away.
Then he took the next scroll about spiritual energy and continued to study it from where he left it.
It explained about souls and how one can awaken their spiritual energy. He also found the white stones are low grade soul stones with lots of impurities which is one of the reasons for lots of women to go insane. He also learned women are born with stronger soul than men and are very favored to train their soul but there are differences among the soul strength of women too.
There was also a technique for one to practice the spiritual energy once they awaken it. It was to try to control heavy objects using one's spiritual energy and he was sure this is also an incomplete technique.
After completing the two scrolls, he went out to sell his items and buy more resources. He found the Qinglu treasure pavilion and was astonished.
He heard in Qinglu city that Qinglu treasure pavilion has a mysterious background and spread all over this world but he didn't put much thought to it, and now seeing Qinglu treasures pavilion in this city far away from Qinglu city or Lei Shu Kingdom where one hasn't even heard of this kingdom or dynasty's name he was really shocked and wondered how could an organization spread through the entire world and felt they were unfathomable and mysterious.
He entered the Qinglu treasures pavilion and found it was busy with lot of cultivators buying and selling their resources.
He approached a counter where a beautiful woman was standing and told her he need to sell lots of materials, herbs and weapons. So the woman took him to a private room and he took out all the things from inside his spatial ring.
He already observed the city and although it is just a low level city in this kingdom, it is much grander and there are more population and prosperity compared to Qinglu city. He also saw many cultivators with spatial ring, hell even a bandit leader below Qi gathering stage has a spatial ring, so he wasn't afraid to show others that he has a spatial ring.
He sold everything he didn't need and obtained a large amount of gold. He saw all the items available and bought various things and he was very happy to finally found a healing technique for his wood elemental root, though it is only a mid grade human tier healing technique.
He completed his transaction and came out of the room with the woman, and coincidentally saw a middle aged man entering with another employer into the second floor.
He realized there must be more treasured items and techniques in the second floor. He also found two guards near the steps who are at Qi gathering stage. He realized it must have been allowed only for specific people. So he asked the woman "Is there a requirement to enter the floors above?"
The woman calmly replied "Yes, Young master Shen. The first floor is for the normal cultivators but from the second floor is for to our VIP customers. We have higher grade techniques, rare elemental fruits, herbs, array techniques, etc. above each floors and the rarity and grade increase at the higher floors."
Zhu Xuan sighed and thought "Even though Qinglu city is a city under a kingdom, it really is a backwater place. Qinglu treasure pavilion there doesn't even have a second floor and VIP customers."
He asked "How do you become a VIP customer? And what are the grades of the VIP customers?"
The woman replied "Young master Shen; there are four grades of VIP sections in this branch of our pavilion; Iron grade, steel grade, silver grade and gold grade VIP's. VIP customer not only able to buy rare resources but also they have discounts while buying and when the client sells his items, we buy at a higher price than our normal purchase price depending on the grade of the VIP token"
She paused and continued "For one to become a VIP customer, it is not a difficult thing. All one needs to have is a certain limit for transactions with our pavilion. For example, to become an Iron grade VIP, you should have a transaction of ten million gold coins, or one thousand high grade elemental stones, or fifty elemental beads."
Zhu Xuan was flabbergasted after hearing the price. He had around 100 high grade fire elemental stones, but that was because he was lucky and found about it accidentally. To get a thousand is impossible for him and elemental bead he only saw one and it was a rare thing even in Lei Shu Kingdom.
He suddenly thought of another issue and blurted out "But how will you keep track of a person's transaction? I have sold a few times in another branch but how will you be able to follow those transactions?"
The women looked at Zhu Xuan and her lips twitched with a smirk "Young master, you are not from around here right?" She guessed he is from a backwater place because only those cities in low level dynasties doesn't give out their token.
Zhu Xuan realized he slipped up but he didn't bother about it and replied "Yes, I'm a wandering cultivator, I have travelled though many kingdoms and dynasties."
The woman also didn't think much and answered "You have to buy a Qinglu token from our pavilion which costs fifty thousand gold coins. You can use this token to buy and sell in all the branches of our pavilion and every transaction will be recorded in the Qinglu token and once you purchased enough, you can upgrade your token in any branch.
Once you become the iron grade VIP, all our sales are five percent lesser and purchase is five percent higher than normal customers."
Now, Zhu Xuan understood and cursed the Qinglu city branch pavilion for not informing him about these details earlier. What he didn't know was that branch didn't have a Qinglu token, only the capital city had VIP section and Qinglu token available in the Lei Shu kingdom.
He paid the gold coins and bought the Qinglu token without a second thought, and left the pavilion.
He spent the next two days obtaining information and as he thought there is news about lots of missing persons from various cities, but it started reducing since a month ago. It matched with what he found in the bandit stronghold.
On the seventh day, inside his room, he activated the dragon pendant to clear to finish the mission.
He also realized he can't use the same method anymore since he is sure the method of his killing must have spread to the all the places of the organization behind the experiment by now or it will be very soon. He needs to think of new ways for the next mission and need to be extra careful because there might be stronger opponents next time.
