My Master Knows It All

333: Chapter 152: Gao Jianli_4 333: Chapter 152: Gao Jianli_4 Cao Zhen’s entire being was overwhelmed in an instant; escorting the white-haired witch, he didn’t even need to think about it, the members of the Red Refinery Demonic Sect would definitely take action.

Now, escorting the white-haired witch was practically like carrying a bomb with them.

Under normal circumstances, there was no way they could reach the Capital City of the Guardian Immortal Imperial Dynasty like this.

But, he couldn’t refuse the task.

If he refused, the other party would definitely say that it was the rule of the Dynasty.

The rules of the Dynasty were to be followed even by the Sect Master of the Hundred Peaks Sect; not to mention him, a mere Peak Master.

Special means must be used to escort the person away.

Cao Zhen quickly asked, “Then, do you have a large flying boat here that can accommodate all of us?

When the time comes, we can directly control the flying boat and head for the Capital City.”

“Flying boat?”

Fang Tuojie shook his head, “I rarely leave the city on normal days, and even when I leave for a short time, I use Gold Light Across the Land or Sword Flight; I don’t need the flying boat you mentioned.”

“This…” Cao Zhen was speechless for a moment, what Fang Tuojie said wasn’t the least bit wrong; with his ability to decapitate a person thousands of miles away, a cultivator of his level didn’t need a flying boat.

“Then, I see that this city is quite large, I wonder, is there a place in the city that sells crafting materials?” Without a flying boat, he would have to craft one himself.

“This city is the largest in this region, and indeed has markets.

Although there are no cultivators in the markets, there are humans who sell materials needed by practitioners.

You can take a look.”

Cao Zhen found that the Guardian Immortal Imperial Dynasty was different from many of the immortal cultivation dynasties and nations he had in mind.

Here, ordinary people actually engaged in trades with immortals and did so on a very large scale.

In Set Soil City, there was such a special market named Immortal Market.

Within the market, it was not just one or two shops doing business but an entire street selling materials needed by cultivators, including materials for talisman making, divine weapon crafting, and formation materials.

There were even many shops selling talismans and pills.

What surprised him more was that apart from himself, there were quite a lot of people picking out materials, or buying talismans and pills necessary for cultivation.

Cao Zhen looked towards Lan Pili, surprised, “Are there so many cultivators in this city?”

Lan Pili explained, “In addition to our ten major sects, the Guardian Immortal Imperial Dynasty also has some smaller sects and loose cultivators.

They have even fewer resources and will often come down from the mountains.

I’ve also learned at the Immortal Reception House that this is the largest city within ten thousand miles, and all cultivators within that range who need resources will come to this Set Soil City.

However, immortals from these smaller sects and loose cultivators generally don’t have high cultivation bases.”

“So that’s how it is.” Cao Zhen looked around as he walked, and soon discovered that within the market, the best-selling items weren’t any materials but Gathering Spirit Talismans.

After all, every practitioner needed Gathering Spirit Talismans.

Gathering Spirit Talismans, if there’s a chance later, could indeed be another market to tap into.

As Cao Zhen thought this, he stepped into a nearby shop and began to list the names of various materials.

Lan Pili took out a Spiritual Stone Ticket from his chest.

Cao Zhen looked down at the ten-thousand-spirit-stone ticket Lan Pili held and placed his hand on it, “Peak Master Lan, what are you doing?”

“Peak Master Cao, I already know that we’re escorting the white-haired witch to the Capital City.

To ensure everyone’s safety, you’re going to craft a flying boat.

Given this, I cannot let you bear the cost alone.”

As he spoke, Lan Pili’s face showed a hint of shame, “However, I didn’t bring much money this time.”

“There’s no need, Peak Master Lan.

Once the flying boat is crafted, it will belong to Four Treasures Peak.

Therefore, I should be the one to pay for it.” Cao Zhen shook his head firmly in refusal.

If it were before, regardless of Lan Pili’s offer, he would’ve called all his disciples together, each contributing a little to raise funds, shearing everyone’s wool in turn.

But now, after witnessing Lan Pili’s willingness to sacrifice his life to save others and the other disciples scrambling for the Divine Skills bead, wishing to sacrifice their own lives, Cao Zhen truly considered himself a disciple of the Hundred Peaks Sect.

There was no need to fleece these disciples anymore.

Besides, although Lan Pili was a Peak Master, he was one of the ninety-something Peak Masters, and most of his disciples belonged to the Lower Fifty Peaks.

What wealth could they have?

If they were from the Upper Fifty Peaks, he might consider it, but for those from the Lower Fifty Peaks, forget it.

They’d better save their little money for cultivation.

Following behind Cao Zhen, Lan Pili watched as Cao Zhen continuously took out Spiritual Stone Tickets, feeling a rush of emotions.

Before, many had spoken ill of Peak Master Cao, accusing him of being shameless for scamming his fellow disciples out of spirit stones.

But now, Peak Master Cao didn’t need anyone else’s spirit stones; he was crafting a flying boat for everyone and was paying for it himself.

Was this shamelessness, selfishness?

This was…

materials worth four hundred thousand spiritual stones!

Cao Zhen spent a total of four hundred thousand spiritual stones before he could gather all the necessary materials.

If it were just an ordinary flying boat, he wouldn’t have needed to spend so much.

The main reason was that his flying boat, aside from being fast, also needed some special features.
