Chapter 623 - 443: Taoist Skill Book
"What a nuisance! That Manager Qian is truly detestable. A Yin Yang Creation and Transformation Tripod actually costs a Life Extending Pill? If I had known this earlier, I wouldn’t have bothered coming here to patronize his business. This old Taoist just can’t comprehend it—nowadays even money can’t buy better Dao Artifacts. Taiyi, you are way too generous, giving away such a treasure like a Life Extending Pill without hesitation. You should let him wait it out for a few days, and keep him hanging."
As soon as they walked out of Duo Bao Building, Tu Daoist started grumbling.
He was used to poverty, and seeing Li Yi being exploited like that pained him deeply, as if the Life Extending Pill had come out of his own pocket.
Li Yi, however, remained composed and unmoved: "As good as the Life Extending Pill is, it cannot compare to the importance of improving one’s own strength. Besides, Manager Qian from Duo Bao Building wasn’t wrong—it’s simply an exchange of goods, each fulfills their needs. I am, however, interested in the second Dao Artifact, but Manager Qian said I would need to wait for three months. The Dao Artifact isn’t within the Tao Court but afar, and it would take time to transport it back. Though I certainly cannot wait for three months."
"Forget it. Obtaining one hundred and eight High Grade Magical Artifacts and one supreme Dao Artifact makes this trip worthwhile. Next, we’ll head to the Taoist Collection Building to purchase some spells, and then everything should be ready. We leave the Tao Court tomorrow."
"Manager Qian profits while wanting to raise prices even further. Taiyi, you shouldn’t indulge him. Instead of spending money there, you could go to Treasure Court instead," Tu Daoist remarked.
Li Yi chuckled, finding some sense in Tu Daoist’s words.
With numerous treasures now in his possession and his strength growing rapidly, Li Yi felt that if he brought along a few Tri-Floral Realm experts, he might as well see what Taixian Weng could do to him when he returned across realms to Earth. He lacked backing before, but now he was determined to seek alliances—being constantly bullied was unworkable.
Afterward, the two of them headed to the Taoist Collection Building.
The building’s manager greeted them warmly. When he learned that Li Yi was looking to buy Taoist Skills, he promptly presented several thick volumes.
"These are all the Taoist Skills collected by the Taoist Collection Building over the years, encompassing every variety imaginable. One Spirit Stone per book—no credit allowed."
