After a stick of incense had burned.
Su Jingzhen and Shuang Jiang returned.
However, this time, the two of them were wearing black robes and had black veils covering their faces.
Just by looking at their appearance, it was impossible to know their identities.
“Shuang Jiang, I’ll ask you something, what’s your current cultivation level?”
After entering the Treasure Gathering Pavilion, Su Jingzhen couldn’t help but ask.
Since their emotional connection had already reached the second level, ‘Slight Fondness’, Su Jingzhen had become bolder in some aspects.
As he spoke, his eyes behind the veil were shining brightly.
However, Shuang Jiang only replied calmly: “Enough to protect you fully.”
Her tone was calm and collected.Su Jingzhen didn’t say anything else, and the two of them didn’t even glance at the long queue on the first floor, directly heading towards the staircase leading to the second floor.
As they approached, more and more people began to cast curious glances at them.
“Where are they going, to the second floor?”
“If I’m not mistaken, only Foundation Establishment masters and high-level pill, symbol, array masters can go up to the second floor of the Treasure Gathering Pavilion.”
“…….”
Many people were whispering to each other.
But no one dared to speak out loud.
After all, in Linjiang City, where the strong and the weak coexisted, even if a few Foundation Establishment masters came, it would be a normal occurrence.
If someone said something wrong, they might provoke a Foundation Establishment cultivator, and who knows how they would die.
Su Jingzhen could feel many eyes on him, and his heart was a bit tense.
Soon, the two of them reached the staircase.
At that moment, he clearly felt that the first floor hall had become quieter.
Almost everyone in the queue was looking at Su Jingzhen and Shuang Jiang.
He was grateful that they had changed their attire.
If they had come up to the second floor with their true faces, Su Jingzhen would probably have become the center of attention in Linjiang City today.
At this point, Su Jingzhen, although his cultivation level was only at the second layer of Qi-refining, could sense that there was a hidden energy fluctuation at the staircase.
He saw Shuang Jiang stretch out her hand and wipe it gently.
The energy fluctuation then briefly dispersed.
Shuang Jiang directly stepped up, and Su Jingzhen followed closely behind.
At that moment, all the curious and envious gazes in the hall turned into shock and admiration.
“They really went up! Are they really Foundation Establishment masters?”
“I don’t know what treasures are on the second floor of the Treasure Gathering Pavilion, but I’ll never have the chance to go up and take a look.”
“Forget about it, if we can just scrape by on Clear Wind Mountain, that’s already a blessing.”
“I just hope that the consumption-type elixirs stored in the Treasure Gathering Pavilion haven’t been sold out.”
“…….”
For a Foundation Establishment stage cultivator in Linjiang City, they were already considered to be at the pinnacle of existence.
It was said that the Sect Master of the Huayang Sect’s Linjiang branch was only at the late stage of Foundation Establishment.
But even with his existence, he was already enough to intimidate the order of Linjiang City.
As long as there was a Foundation Establishment stage cultivator present, it was basically possible to establish a powerful sect.
Most small cultivation families and minor sects were like this.
As the crowd whispered among themselves, Yan Xia and her family of three had just emerged from a window.
Upon hearing the discussion, Yan Xia’s gaze also turned towards the second floor staircase, with a hint of envy in her eyes.
“Let’s go, we’ve already made a reservation. Once the goods arrive tomorrow, we’ll come to collect them.”
“Even if Xia’er’s spiritual awakening doesn’t succeed this time, I won’t let your abilities stagnate at the peak of mortal cultivation.”
Yan Xia’s father also glanced at the second floor before leading his wife and daughter away.
……
The second floor of the Treasure Gathering Pavilion.
This place was much colder than the first floor.
The area wasn’t much smaller than the first floor.
There were over a dozen intricately carved wooden tables and chairs arranged here.
The entire second floor seemed to have a small, exquisite spiritual array, serving only this floor.
As soon as Su Jingzhen arrived, he felt a refreshing and uplifting sensation.
The decorations here were luxurious, far surpassing the first floor.
“Is this the treatment for a Foundation Establishment grandmaster?”
Su Jingzhen couldn’t help but feel a sense of admiration in his heart.
He knew that this was only the tip of the iceberg, and that there were many more wonders in the cultivation world that he couldn’t yet reach with his current abilities.
“I wonder what kind of scenery there would be in those larger cultivation regions, where higher-level cultivators exist.”
Just the second floor of the Treasure Gathering Pavilion in Linjiang City was enough to make Su Jingzhen feel a strong desire for power.
As he was lost in thought, a female cultivator with minimal clothing, wearing a silk low-cut long dress, walked over.
The female cultivator had a beautiful face, a tall and slender figure, and a natural charm on her face.
With just one smile, she could surpass those celebrities from before the transmigration.
After all, no matter how beautiful a mortal was, they would always lack the spiritual aura of a cultivator.
“Welcome, esteemed guests, to the second floor of the Treasure Gathering Pavilion.”
“I am Feng Qingya, the person in charge of attending to you today.”
“Please feel free to let me know what you require.”
The female cultivator smiled and gave Su Jingzhen a slight bow.
When Su Jingzhen saw Feng Qingya, a bright light flashed in his eyes.
However, behind the black veil, Shuang Jiang’s eyebrows furrowed slightly, as if she was slightly dissatisfied with the female attendant.
But she didn’t say much, only lightly uttering two words: “Purchase!”
Upon hearing this, Feng Qingya smiled and said, “Please follow me, esteemed guests.”
The buying and selling in the Treasure Gathering Pavilion were indeed quite different.
Feng Qingya directly led the two of them to a private room.
The luxury inside the room was even more extravagant than outside.
The floor was covered with an unknown type of beast skin, extremely soft, and the tables and chairs were still made of intricately carved spiritual wood, with snow-white fox fur on the chairs.
The incense on the table had a calming effect.
Su Jingzhen couldn’t help but feel a sense of admiration for the Treasure Gathering Pavilion’s wealth.
At the same time, he felt a sense of tension, knowing that the items here wouldn’t be cheap.
He currently had some savings, but they would be insignificant here.
And Shuang Jiang, although strong, might not have the financial resources to match him.
After all, back then, she couldn’t even take out 100 low-grade spirit stones to repay a debt.
Feng Qingya entered the room and leaned against a chair, her posture exuding charm and allure.
Seeing this, Su Jingzhen was secretly shocked, realizing that Feng Qingya’s status in the Treasure Gathering Pavilion was likely not low.
After Su Jingzhen and Shuang Jiang sat down, Feng Qingya smiled and said, “You two have intentionally come to the second floor, so the items you want to purchase are probably not simple.”
“Whatever you need, as long as you can afford the price, the Treasure Gathering Pavilion can provide most of the rare and exotic treasures in the cultivation world.”
