It must be said that the depth of Xuantian Academy is truly remarkable. As Aotian stepped into the shop made of Purple Stone, he couldn't help but be shocked by the items displayed inside.
The shop was filled with counters, each showcasing numerous rare items. In a world where Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures were nearly extinct, Aotian saw dozens of them in this shop. Of course, the prices also left Aotian in disbelief.
In this shop, even the cheapest items cost several thousand Contribution Points, while the most expensive ones reached hundreds of thousands of Contribution Points.
This resulted in very few students being able to enter the shop; compared to the bustling crowd outside, the number of people inside was undoubtedly much smaller.
However, this was quite normal, as the items in this shop were not something everyone could afford. Even Outer Academy Students who managed to enter would only be wasting their time.
Aotian and Snow Qincheng stood in front of a large counter, scanning their surroundings in hopes of finding something useful.
Of course, many items here could benefit both of them, but upon seeing the prices listed below each item, they quickly averted their gazes in shock.
"May I assist you two with some items?" At that moment, an elderly man approached Aotian and Snow Qincheng.
The old man's face was lined with wrinkles from years of life, and his eyes were clouded with experience. However, the aura emanating from him filled Aotian with astonishment.
This person's cultivation level definitely surpassed Half-Step Human Spirit, meaning he was a genuine Spirit Realm Martial Artist!
No wonder Xuantian Academy had such a formidable presence; even the shopkeeper possessed Human Spirit Realm cultivation. It was clear why no one dared to challenge Xuantian Academy's status in Fengyun Nation for nearly a thousand years.
In a world where Three Spirits Realm warriors were nearly "extinct," Aotian saw several within Xuantian Academy.
At that moment, Aotian's gaze fixated intensely on the old man's right hand.
In the old man's hand was a peculiar grass, about a foot long, with two leaves growing from it.
One leaf was emerald green, while the other was golden yellow. The green leaf appeared vibrant and full of life, whereas the golden leaf seemed lifeless, as if it were about to wither. However, both leaves contained a tremendous wave of energy.
Twinleaf Grass!
This was a type of Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures that was nearly extinct in the outside world. Aotian was confident that if he consumed this Twinleaf Grass, he would not fear facing the likes of Mo Gang at all!
The Twinleaf Grass was enticing for both martial artists and Soul Practitioners, but for someone like Aotian, who practiced Soul and Martial Dual Cultivation, it was an irresistible temptation. If it weren't for the significant disparity in strength between them, Aotian might have even entertained thoughts of killing to seize the grass.
"Young man, do you want this Twinleaf Grass?" The old man shook the grass in his hand and asked Aotian.
Aotian's eyes were filled with fervor, and upon hearing the old man's words, he nodded vigorously.
The old man gently said, "Two hundred thousand Contribution Points. Do you have that?"
Instantly, it felt as though a bucket of cold water had been poured over Aotian, and the fervor in his eyes slowly faded away, leaving him feeling helpless.
This Twinleaf Grass was far more precious than most items in the shop, so a price of two hundred thousand Contribution Points was understandable. But the problem was that Aotian didn't even have twenty thousand Contribution Points, let alone two hundred thousand!
Seeing the disappointment on Aotian's face, the old man slowly shook his head. Then, under Aotian's unwilling gaze, he placed the Twinleaf Grass on the counter and marked it with a price of two hundred thousand Contribution Points.
Beside Snow Qincheng, Aotian seemed to feel the dissatisfaction in his heart. She gently stroked the back of his hand, offering him comfort.
Aotian's heart trembled, and he immediately turned his hand to grasp Snow Qincheng's delicate hand, as if to signal her not to worry, that he was fine.
At that moment, Aotian's gaze fixed on a bottle on the counter next to Snow Qincheng. He walked over to it with curiosity.
Slowly picking up the bottle, a chill emanated from within. Inside the bottle was a light blue ointment.
Aotian asked, "Elder, what is this?"
"That contains Mysterious Ice Ointment," the elder glanced at the bottle in Aotian's hand and replied.
"Mysterious Ice Ointment?"
"Mysterious Ice Ointment is a type of Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures that can strengthen the body. If you want it, I can give it to you for twenty thousand Contribution Points," the elder said casually.
"Elder, here are twenty thousand Contribution Points."
Without a second thought, Snow Qincheng transferred twenty thousand Contribution Points from her token to the elder.
Clearly, Snow Qincheng knew that Aotian only had a little over ten thousand Contribution Points, so she paid for him first to spare him any embarrassment.
The old man took the Contribution Point and walked deeper into the shop, muttering to himself as he went:
"Are today's male students really this useless? They even need girls to help pay the bills. How pathetic..."
Although the old man's voice was low, it still reached Aotian's ears. Instantly, Aotian's face turned red with anger as he glared at the old man's back and cursed under his breath:
"Damn old man, why are you so nosy!"
Snow Qincheng couldn't help but laugh at Aotian's reaction. She stepped forward and linked her arm with his, saying:
"Come on, let's go check out some other places..."
With that, Aotian and Snow Qincheng walked out of the shop.
However, Aotian didn't notice that as Snow Qincheng stepped out of the shop, she cast a glance at the Twinleaf Grass on the counter:
"For Aotian's sake, it seems I need to change my position as ninth..."
After wandering around the Trading Hall for quite a while and buying some useful items for cultivation, Aotian and Snow Qincheng headed towards the exit of the Trading Hall.
"Aotian, are you planning to apply the Mysterious Ice Ointment once you go outside?" Snow Qincheng asked.
"Yes, that's right. Since the Mysterious Ice Ointment has the effect of refining the body, I might as well use it early. I hope it can enhance my physical strength further," Aotian replied.
“Mysterious Ice Ointment has the effect of refining the body, but if you want to achieve a qualitative breakthrough in your physical form, you must visit the Ice Tower.”
“The Ice Tower? What kind of place is that?” Aotian stopped in his tracks and asked in confusion.
“There are many excellent places for refining the body within Xuantian Academy, and the Ice Tower is one of them. If you want to fully unleash the effects of Mysterious Ice Ointment, it’s best to make a trip to the Ice Tower.”
“Oh? Xue Qingcheng, please tell me more about this Ice Tower.”
“The Ice Tower was built at great expense by Xuantian Academy. It consists of nine levels, and the interior is extremely cold. The higher you go, the more intense the cold becomes. However, this cold can stimulate the body, significantly increasing your physical strength, and the potency of Mysterious Ice Ointment can only be maximized under the stimulation of the Ice Tower.”
“Generally, students who purchase Mysterious Ice Ointment will head to this Ice Tower…”
Upon hearing Xue Qingcheng's words, Aotian's eyes suddenly lit up.
“Let’s go to the Ice Tower!”
What Aotian didn’t know was that his courtyard had already been surrounded by the Sky Garment Gang. If he returned to his courtyard to cultivate now, it would definitely lead to a fierce battle. Fortunately, he changed his route and headed to the Ice Tower…
