Once inside the outer city,
Su Ping immediately felt as if he had arrived in a completely different world.
Contrary to what he had imagined,
the outer city was dominated by lush gardens.
In the gardens, Su Ping could see small Spiritual Beasts roaming, and some areas seemed to have Spirit Plant Gardens where Spirit Grass and Spiritual Flowers were cultivated.
These areas were all equipped with various Formations, gathering Spiritual Veins and Spiritual Energy from the surroundings to nourish them.
On the spacious roads, there were gradually more people, Martial Artists, Loose Cultivators, and Qi Cultivation Cultivators coming and going.
The caravan leader noticed that it might be Su Ping’s first time there and quietly introduced the owners of those gardens.
Which one was not a pillar of talent from the Immortal City of yesteryear? Which family was not a prominent figure in the Immortal City now?
Otherwise, how could they have accumulated such a substantial foundation to exploit the city’s Spiritual Energy and open Spirit Gardens and breed Spiritual Beasts?
Amidst laughter, the caravan reached the warehouse.
The caravan leader then took Su Ping alone to an area only accessible to Cultivators in the late Qi Cultivation period.
There, Su Ping found something reminiscent of the Cloud Mountain Workshop vibe.
After looking around,
Su Ping found the prices here to be at least one and a half times those at Cloud Mountain Workshop.
However, there was one advantage here–Cultivators did not have to worry about not finding jobs paying in Spirit Stones.
Whether it was odd jobs in the Spirit Gardens or farming and mining in the Small Cave Heavens and Secret Realms of the major families,
the pay was higher than what Outer Sect Disciples of the Immortal Sects offered.
And for somewhat dangerous tasks, such as scouting for demon beasts in the Ten Thousand Mountains outside the city or managing the Mana nodes on the city walls,
good prices were also offered, which attracted Cultivators to sign up from time to time.
Su Ping quickly located the temple of the Great Golden Light Temple and the Thousand Strange and Ten Thousand Skill Pavilion.
Thousand Strange and Ten Thousand Skill Pavilion.
A venerable name in the Immortal Cultivation World for helping Cultivators with opportunities to customize Magic Artifacts and even Spiritual Artifacts.
It had a very profound heritage.
Rumored to be a top-tier power contemporaneous with the Great Golden Light Temple.
Even when the first generation Immortal Chiyuan was at his strongest, they maintained certain independence, which speaks volumes about their foundation.
Thus, Su Ping thought that such an organization would not be corrupted by selfish interests and lust after the few Ancient Cold Crystals he had managed to collect.
Even if something unexpected happened, he would only encounter those pretending to be stronger than they actually were, who would also be cautious about spoiling their reputation.
In front of the Thousand Strange and Ten Thousand Skill Pavilion,
upon entering, a young and attractive female guest promptly came forward, her eyes lighting up.
She enthusiastically introduced Su Ping to the various services of the Thousand Strange and Ten Thousand Skill Pavilion.
After listening, Su Ping hesitated and then inquired about any recommendations for customizing Array Devices.
Upon hearing it was for Array Devices, the female guest became even more eager.
Generally speaking, the price tags on Array Devices were a bit higher than similar items.
She, naturally, would get a larger share of the Spirit Stones.
So, she quickly excused herself and went to the back courtyard where she seemed to have argued with someone before hurrying back with a portfolio.
Opening the portfolio,
inside were images of various Artifact Refining Masters and brief introductions.
After carefully reviewing it, Su Ping turned to the female guest,
“Is this all the masters you have?”
“I came here to customize an Array Device that’s a bit challenging…”
“Oh? A challenging Array Device?”
From behind the curtain, suddenly, a tall, broad-shouldered bald old man with a big beard walked over.
This old man glanced at the portfolio in Su Ping’s hand and, smiling, said,
“More powerful than those Artifact Refining Masters in the portfolio, there’s only me, Shopkeeper Niu.”
Su Ping was slightly taken aback, not expecting to meet the manager in charge here, who also appeared to be an Artifact Refining Master!
“I earned the post of shopkeeper by my Artifact Refining merits.”
Shopkeeper Niu grinned, a presence emanating from him.
Suddenly, he was clearly at the late Foundation Establishment stage!
He also slightly raised his left hand, and immediately a blue flame-formed lotus flower emerged in his palm.
Su Ping determined from the Mana fluctuations that this was some kind of Fire Series Divine Power!
The female guest also quickly came closer to Su Ping and narrated her knowledge of this slightly legendary Shopkeeper Niu.
Rumors had it, one major reason he had become the shopkeeper was that he helped an elder of the Thousand Strange and Ten Thousand Skill Pavilion successfully refine a Spiritual Treasure!
Above Spiritual Artifacts were Spiritual Treasures which even Golden Core Great Powers might not possess.
With such capabilities, refining the Array Device he needed should be highly probable!
Su Ping thanked the female guest, put aside any pretense, and took out the top-grade Cold Crystals.
Without some good materials, a master of this level wouldn’t simply engage in refining for Spirit Stones.
For Artifact Refining Masters, constantly having good materials to work with was part of their correct Cultivation Path.
Upon seeing the Ancient Cold Crystals, Shopkeeper Niu transformed back into Master Niu and started examining them with a few mirrored Spiritual Artifacts,
