I Have A Cultivation World

Chapter 30 - 30: 30 Spirit Stone Exchange l

Not without reason.

Because exchanging spirit stones at the bank would earn him points from the celestial sect.

The point system was designed by the celestial sect to nationalize all the spirit stones in the market.

Each spirit stone would earn him 10,000 points after converting into cash. Spending the cash would earn him another 10,000 points back—double the benefit.

After school, he walked into the national bank branch in Red Sandstone City.

“Good day, sir, how may I assist you?”

In the bank, a sweet smiling lady with short hair in a uniform approached him when she noticed Chen Mobai hesitating in front of the ticket machine.

“I can’t seem to find the service I need.”

“May I ask what service you need?”

“To exchange spirit stone.”

“I am sorry, sir, but we have not yet launched the service of exchanging spirit stones.”

The short-haired girl apologized with an unchanged smile, looking sorry.

“No, you misunderstood. I said I wanted to exchange spirit stones, not the other way round.”

“Uh…”

Chen Mobai saw her smile freeze after she realized her blunder and couldn’t help but shrug.

It took a couple of seconds for the girl to recover and confirm carefully.

“So, you mean to say that you want to exchange spirit stones for Good Deed Points?”

“Yes!”

“Apologies, please take a seat over there whilst I call the manager.”

The short-haired girl quickly raised her hand, guiding Chen Mobai to a glass-walled booth. She poured a cup of tea for him as he sat down.

At this time, a man in a suit that got the news came over. When he entered the room, he first extended his hand to Chen Mobai and introduced himself.

“Hello, sir, I am…”

An hour later, Chen Mobai left the bank with satisfaction.

The business of spirit stone exchange was the bank’s top priority. All that Chen Mobai had to do was to get his spirit stone appraised as unactivated, and then the rest of the process became a breeze.

He started by explaining the origin of this spirit stone.

Chen Mobai spun a tale about this spirit stone belonging to his ancestor who saved it from the ancient times of war, which is now in his possession.

The bank simply recorded this without further investigation.

Once they confirmed Chen Mobai as an honest citizen with a clean credit history, the usual procedures followed.

Despite having everything handled for him while he simply sat around, it still took a full hour for him to get the Good Deed Points and points credited into his account.

Chen Mobai was thinking about also converting the used spirit stone shell he had. After all, the celestial gate has the technology to infuse spiritual energy, so it should be accepted too.

However, the man in the suit told him that it was the same as exchanging spirit stones, which was only possible during a war period.

Chen Mobai could only feel regretful.

Yet, when he saw the five-digit balance on the latest text message on his phone, he couldn’t help laughing.

He had never had that many Good Deed Points before.

However, he did not get carried away by his sudden fortune. After the initial joy, he exchanged the Cultivation Technique of Pure Yang Qi from the Blue Emperor account in the National Library. But as it was not convenient to read on the road, he could only glance at it in a general way.

When he was almost home, he saw the pharmacy where he had bought the spiritual power test papers last time.

The cultivation of the Three-Yang Body would change the attributes of the spiritual root, and the extent of the change depended on the amount of spiritual energy and one’s luck, so constant monitoring was necessary.

After some thought, Chen Mobai went in.

“Hello…oh, it’s you?”

Just as he was about to call for help seeing nobody at the counter, he saw the young nurse in white clothes carrying a large iron pot and a big box of glass tubes from the back door.

“Um, I’ve set up a small formation at the entrance. If someone comes in, it will automatically give a prompt in the alchemy room.”

The young girl recognized Chen Mobai, remembered the last time, put what she was carrying on the counter, activated a Cleaning Technique to remove the smell of medicine from her body, before walking over to greet him.

Her face was still covered with a mask, revealing only her well-shaped and clear eyebrows and eyes. After a look of her, the restless sense of sudden wealth in Chen Mobai’s heart was subconsciously calmed.

“What do you want to buy? More spiritual power test paper?”

“No, do you have any Spirit-Testing Instruments here?”

“That’s expensive. Are you running a tutorial class?”

The girl looked at Chen Mobai in confusion. The spiritual power test paper was a disposable product, but the Spirit-Testing Instrument could be used repeatedly. Usually, only those who run tutor classes for children cultivators would buy this stuff as it is used constantly for tailored teaching.

“I want to cultivate a technique that enhances spiritual roots and need to constantly monitor my spiritual root attribute points.”

“Enhancing spiritual roots? Is there such a cultivation technique?”

The girl seemed to be around the same age as Chen Mobai, yet to attend college, hence unaware of the cultivation technique to purify and enhance spiritual roots.

“Yes, the aptitude of my spiritual roots is average. The college entrance examination is imminent, and the hope of breaking through to the later stage of Qi Cultivation is grim. I can only hope to enhance the spiritual roots and hope for extra points to get into the top ten colleges.”

Upon hearing Chen Mobai’s words, the girl nodded, squatted in front of a medicine cabinet, and took out a well-packaged Spirit-Testing Instrument.

“580 Good Deed Points.”

Upon hearing the price, Chen Mobai cringed, wondering if he had acted impulsively.

Each piece of spiritual power test paper cost 5 Good Deed Points. This Spirit-Testing Instrument could buy more than a hundred pieces of test paper.

However, after some thought, Chen Mobai realized that he would definitely need this instrument if he intended to cultivate a Pure Yang Body. It was more environmentally friendly than always using disposable spiritual power test paper. He gritted his teeth and bought it.

Qing Nu, seeing the hesitation of Chen Mobai, knew that he did not belong to a wealthy family. She had an unexpected thought.

[Why doesn’t this guy bargain?]

She had expected him to bargain, and she was ready to give him a 10-point discount if he did so.

However, since the customer was generous, Qing Nu wouldn’t take the initiative to give discounts. Upon hearing the ping sound of her phone receiving the payment, her clear eyes squinted in cheer.

After confirming that Chen Mobai had no other needs, she went to the counter, took the large iron pot in one hand, and poured the newly concocted spiritual water into small glass bottles. She then sealed it with a cork and applied a “Closure Technique” to ensure that the spiritual water would not leak.

[Is it Returning Primordial Spirit Water again?]

Chen Mobai thought to himself, recalling what she had said the last time, but he chose not to ask any questions because they were not familiar with each other yet.

Carrying the Spirit-Testing Instrument, he stepped out of the pharmacy door.

Though, he had a nagging sensation of familiarity from the sight of the girl pouring spiritual water.

What was it that gave him a sense of familiarity?
