Jindu Garden, Ye Tian woke up early in the morning to cultivate at home.
Wisp after wisp of thin Spiritual Energy entered Ye Tian’s mouth, and as he finished his cultivation, he opened his eyes.
After several days of consolidation, Ye Tian’s Qi Refining First Layer Cultivation had become exceptionally solidified.
“Qi Refining First Layer has been consolidated, it’s time to craft Jade Talismans.”
Thinking of Jade Talismans, Ye Tian felt a slight heat in his heart.
A Jade Talisman involves inscribing Runes onto jade, granting the jade diverse abilities.
There are primarily three types of Jade Talismans: Attack Jade Talismans, Defense Jade Talismans, and Support Jade Talismans.
For example, Attack Jade Talismans further divide into numerous kinds, including Fire Talismans, Thunder Talismans, Ice Talismans, Sword Talismans, etc.… Activating a Fire Talisman releases flames; activating a Thunder Talisman releases lightning; activating an Ice Talisman releases Cold Ice Energy; activating a Sword Talisman releases Sword Qi.
Jade Talismans are classified by their power from First Grade to Ninth Grade with First Grade being the lowest and Ninth Grade the highest, corresponding respectively to cultivators from Qi Refining First Layer to Qi Refining Ninth Layer.
Only cultivators who possess Jade Talismans are considered true cultivators, otherwise, they are only slightly stronger than ordinary people.
A Qi Refining First Layer cultivator with a Second Grade Attack Jade Talisman can easily overpower another Qi Refining First Layer cultivator who does not have a Jade Talisman.
Recalling recent events, encountering Assassins and bank robbers, Ye Tian felt it was essential to prepare some Jade Talismans for self-defense.
“Crafting Jade Talismans, I wonder how much raw jade it will take, how much money it will cost?”
Jade itself is not cheap, costs are high, and the success rate of crafting Jade Talismans is inherently low, often requiring dozens of pieces of raw jade to craft a single Jade Talisman.
This is no small sum, definitely enough to completely drain the savings of a middle-class family.
Fortunately, during this period, Ye Tian made over a million selling hangover tea and also made six hundred thousand yesterday from trading thirty bottles of Erectile Dysfunction Medicine Liquid with Mr.
Zhao.
He now has some savings, daring to think about crafting Jade Talismans.
Just as Ye Tian stepped out, his cell phone rang.
“Message from little Feifei.”
Ye Tian’s face showed a slight smile as he opened his phone.
Chu Yifei: Brother Tian, I’m giving you a chance to please me today.
Ye Tian: What chance?
Chu Yifei: Go shopping with me!
Ye Tian: Where?
Chu Yifei: Hmm… I want to go to the old Banyan tree food stalls tonight, I haven’t decided for the day, any suggestions?
Ye Tian: How about we go to the Antique Street during the day? This chapter was copied from novelping.com without permission.
Chu Yifei: Oh great, I haven’t been there either.
Ye Tian: I’ll pick you up at your neighborhood gate in a while.
After turning off the phone, Ye Tian took a taxi to the entrance of Chu Yifei’s residential area.
…
Today, Chu Yifei wore a black dress, sunglasses, her wavy hair draped over her shoulders, and a pair of pink high heels.
Standing at the entrance of the neighborhood, she looked youthful, beautiful, and very much like a Goddess, attracting the gazes of many passersby.
“Such a beautiful lady, I never knew we had such a beauty in our neighborhood!”
A self-proclaimed handsome young man peered out from his BMW at Chu Yifei, his eyes filled with infatuation.
He drove his car in front of Chu Yifei, then rolled down his window, very handsomely took off his sunglasses, and looked at Chu Yifei.
“Beauty, do you need a ride?”
“No need, my boyfriend is coming to pick me up.”
Chu Yifei smiled as she declined, her smile radiantly splendid.
Such a beauty, already taken!
The handsome young man felt as though he had been struck by an arrow, wanting to vomit blood!
Ye Tian spotted Chu Yifei from afar, so he had the taxi stop behind the BMW.
“Feifei, over here!”
Ye Tian waved at Chu Yifei, who saw him and promptly came over to get in the taxi.
“Driver, to the Antique Street!”
…
At Antique Street, Ye Tian and Chu Yifei got out of the taxi.
“This place is really bustling!”
Chu Yifei, hooking her arm with Ye Tian’s, looked at the passersby with joyful expression on her face.
After getting out of the taxi, Ye Tian started looking at the shops on both sides.
It was his first time here too.
The whole Antique Street was buzzing with people who mostly just came to look around; not many were actual buyers.
The antiques business is a kind where you might go three years without opening, but once you do, it sustains you for another three.
“Wow, what a beautiful girl!”
“Ah…
it’s a pity she’s already taken!”
Passersby were mesmerized by Chu Yifei’s slender figure, her skin as white as mutton fat jade, and her youthful and attractive attire; their eyes were glued to her.
Inevitably, Ye Tian felt many jealous and hostile glances, but he paid them no mind.
Not arousing jealousy means you’re mediocre!
“Feifei, your charm is too great.”
Ye Tian said to Chu Yifei with a smile. Follow the newest chapters on g.com.
“You’re only realizing now?
That’s why you better cherish this rare opportunity to be my temporary boyfriend and put on a good performance, or else be careful someone might steal me away.”
Chu Yifei giggled proudly.
Ye Tian hugged Chu Yifei tightly, his gaze dominantly fixed on her beautiful eyes.
“Feifei, dare you!
Once you’re in Brother Tian’s hands, you won’t have a chance to escape.”
“My legs are my own; you don’t get a say.
So, better bribe me properly!”
“Of course.”
Ye Tian and Chu Yifei chatted and laughed as they walked along Antique Street, Chu Yifei entering each little shop to take a look.
Ye Tian accompanied Chu Yifei, casually observing the items in the shops.
He wasn’t knowledgeable about jade and didn’t understand it initially, but as he looked around, he started to notice a pattern.
Some pieces of jade contained faint traces of spiritual energy, and their prices were much higher than others.
Ye Tian came to a conclusion that only jade containing spiritual energy was truly valuable.
This also explained why high-quality jade was said to nourish the body – it was actually the spiritual energy in the jade that nurtured the body.
After visiting more than a dozen shops, Chu Yifei was still in high spirits, continuously examining various kinds of jade.
In one shop, she took a particular interest in a pair of jade pendants crafted from mutton fat jade.
Unfortunately, they were quite expensive, priced at 120,000 yuan.
Ye Tian was already prepared to buy them for Chu Yifei, considering he was not short of money, and the couple had not exchanged gifts yet.
However, Chu Yifei pulled Ye Tian away, leaving the jade pendants behind, and ran out of the shop.
“Feifei, why didn’t you want them?”
“Don’t ever…” Chu Yifei was slightly out of breath and gave Ye Tian a look, “I know you can afford it, but we’ve just started dating.
If you give me such an expensive gift now, I can’t accept it.”
Although Ye Tian didn’t fully understand the thoughts inside Chu Yifei’s mind, he was happy with her reasoning – she was a woman who considered his feelings.
Ye Tian decided not to buy it this time and planned to buy a better jade pendant for Chu Yifei later, but of course, he wouldn’t tell her the real value of that pendant!
“Alright!
Alright!
You say no, then no it is.
Let’s go look at something else.”
Soon, the two of them arrived at a larger store called ‘Treasure Workshop’, with two large stone lions at the entrance.
Looking at the upscale decor of the shop, they were ready to step inside and take a look.
