Chapter 2355 Xuanbao Pavilion, Red Candle Fairy

"What does this mean, fellow Taoist?"

Chen Xuan frowned slightly.

The identity token he gave the old man was indeed an identity token from Feilai City.

However, seeing the old man's respectful gaze, Chen Xuan was somewhat puzzled.

"Haha, fellow Daoist, please don't misunderstand. Not long ago, the powerful figures of our Southern Immortal Realm jointly issued a summons for the Cave Heavens. Our Prison Immortal City became one of the ten major cities of the Southern Immortal Realm, and naturally, we also sent many powerful figures to participate in the battle!"

"Unfortunately, so far, only two or three geniuses at the Golden Immortal level have managed to exchange their accumulated merit points for the qualification to leave Flying City!"

"I am curious, fellow Daoist, you are only at the early stage of Golden Immortal, you must be a genius among geniuses."

Hearing the old man's words, Chen Xuan's vigilance lessened considerably.

"Fellow Daoist is absolutely right. A great battle recently broke out in Feilai City. Countless demonic beasts joined forces to besiege Feilai City!"

"We fought a fierce battle for a long time before we were able to barely hold off the attack of the monster army."

"It was during that battle that I was fortunate enough to accumulate enough merit points to exchange for a spot to leave."

Chen Xuan explained with a smile.

The things he said were all common knowledge, so he naturally wasn't afraid of being questioned by the old man.

However, the old man in the late stage of Golden Immortal, after hearing Chen Xuan's detailed explanation, looked at Chen Xuan with extremely kind eyes.

"Haha, I am Zong Hou, and I am only acting under orders. If I have offended you in any way, please forgive me!"

"Furthermore, this is your identification token for entering and leaving our Prison Immortal City. Please keep it safe!"

Zong Hou laughed and handed Chen Xuan a brand-new identity token along with the identity token from Feilai City.

Upon seeing this, Chen Xuan immediately thanked him and entered the Prison Immortal City.

However, not long after Chen Xuan left, another middle-aged man in the late Golden Immortal stage, who was in charge of checking the powerful people entering and leaving the Prison Immortal City along with Zong Hou, looked at Zong Hou with a look of surprise.

"Elder Zong, you are an outer sect elder of our Prison Immortal City. In terms of cultivation, you are even superior to this man. Why are you being so polite to him?"

"Besides, this is Prison Immortal City, our own territory. Are you afraid of him?"

Upon hearing this, Zong Hou couldn't help but smile calmly.

His gaze followed the direction Chen Xuan had left, revealing a meaningful expression.

“Fellow Daoist Wen, we have known each other for so many years and have a very good personal relationship. You naturally know that I am not a sycophant.”

"Hehe, you must be aware of what's been happening in the Jinling Mountains lately, right?"

"The Lingxiao Beast King launched this beast tide, gathering countless powerful demonic beasts to conquer Jinling City."

"This forced countless True Immortals in my Southern Heavenly Immortal Realm to retreat to Flying City and prepare for battle!"

"According to the information I have received, any powerful person who enters Flying City, regardless of their cultivation level, must accumulate a certain amount of merit points in order to exchange for the qualification to leave."

"This fellow Daoist appears to be young and his cultivation level is not high. Yet he managed to return safely from a place like Flying City. You surely understand what that means, don't you?"

Upon hearing this, Wenxian looked at Chen Xuan with a very complicated expression.

"This... Thank you for your guidance, Elder Zong. The fellow Daoist who just went in is not old, yet he managed to escape from Flying City unscathed. Besides possessing extremely strong combat power himself, his background is probably extraordinary as well!"

"Thank goodness Elder Zong reminded me, otherwise I might have offended such a talented person with a powerful background at some point!"

Wenxian looked relieved.

Although he was also at the late stage of the Golden Immortal realm.

Moreover, he is an outer sect elder of the Immortal Prison City.

But he had no connections.

Having come this far, he naturally understands the importance of being cautious.

They were also afraid that they might accidentally offend a powerful person they shouldn't have, and thus lose their lives.

Only by being careful and cautious can one live longer in the Realm of True Immortals.

……

Chen Xuan, who had entered the City of Imprisoned Immortals, was unaware of these things.

At this moment, listening to the bustling cries of vendors coming from both sides of the street, his expression relaxed.

"Fellow Daoists, don't miss this opportunity! Low-grade Dao-level Golden Immortal Pills are on sale at a discounted price."

"Fellow Daoists, a Fire Dragon Immortal Pearl is only 300,000 high-grade immortal stones. Hurry and grab yours!"

"A single Black Dragon Grass, three million years old, is available for purchase by fellow cultivators!"

As Chen Xuan walked, he kept an eye on everything around him.

In fact, with his current cultivation level, he could take in everything around him even without deliberately releasing his divine sense.

Looking at the bustling crowds on the street, Chen Xuan had no idea where he should go next.

Just as he was about to ask someone about the famous shops in Prison Immortal City, he saw a boy of about sixteen or seventeen years old walking towards him with a slightly shy expression.

The aura emanating from the boy was only at the early stage of Earth Immortal.

For a Golden Immortal like Chen Xuan, there was absolutely no threat.

"Senior, I am a native of Prison Immortal City. Is there anything I can help you with?" the young man asked cautiously.

He was terrified that he might inadvertently offend the esteemed Chen Xuan and bring disaster upon himself.

"You're a hyacinth too?"

Chen Xuan looked at the boy with surprise.

Although the boy was young, he had already reached the early stage of Earth Immortal cultivation.

That's pretty good compared to others her age.

If one can join a decent True Immortal faction, advancing to the Golden Immortal realm in the future will be a piece of cake.

If this were a place like the Immortal Cultivation Sect, he would definitely be nurtured as a genius.

But now, the boy before me can only be a hyacinth in the Immortal Prison City.

This treatment truly puzzled Chen Xuan.

"Senior, you may not know this. My family has lived in the Immortal Prison City our entire lives. Unfortunately, my parents went out to gather herbs hundreds of years ago and have not returned since."

"Therefore, I can only make a living as a hyacinth in the Immortal Prison City."

The boy explained timidly.

Chen Xuan nodded.

Although he appeared expressionless, he felt a pang of sympathy for the boy.

“Alright, I just needed a fellow Daoist who is familiar with the Immortal Imprisonment City to take me to a place that specializes in selling pill formulas,” Chen Xuan said.

"Don't worry, senior, I will definitely find you a shop with an excellent reputation."

The boy was overjoyed.

After explaining, he quickly left with Chen Xuan.

The boy was quite familiar with the City of Imprisoned Immortals.

As they walked together, they gradually began to talk more.

Taking this opportunity, Chen Xuan inquired a lot about the Imprisoned Immortal City from the young man, and gained a general understanding of it.

After waiting for a little over an hour, the two appeared on a bustling street.

Soon, the boy led Chen Xuan to a shop called Xuanbaoge.

"Senior, this Xuanbao Pavilion is one of the top shops in our Prison Immortal City that specializes in selling pill formulas and pill refining materials."

"Whether you are buying pill formulas, elixirs, or finished pills, this is perfect for you!"

The boy explained.

Chen Xuan nodded.

After casually tossing ten mid-grade immortal stones to the boy, he sent him away.

Ten mid-grade immortal stones!

For Chen Xuan, it was nothing at all.

But for the boy, it was a great fortune.

That's enough for him to live in the Immortal Prison City for quite some time.

After seeing the boy off, Chen Xuan hadn't even entered the Xuanbao Pavilion when he heard a silvery laugh coming from inside.

"Senior, welcome to our Xuanbao Pavilion. Our Xuanbao Pavilion specializes in selling all kinds of rare and precious materials needed for alchemy, as well as pill formulas!"

"If you need anything, please feel free to come and take a look."

"Our Xuanbaoge has an excellent reputation and our prices are very reasonable!"

The speaker was a female cultivator wearing a light red dress.

With just a touch of makeup, her peach blossom eyes were exceptionally captivating.

Chen Xuan couldn't help but take another look.

"Oh? Since Xuanbao Pavilion is as good as the fairy says, I'd like to see it for myself!"

Chen Xuan smiled slightly and followed the female cultivator into the Xuanbao Pavilion.

The first floor of Xuanbaoge specializes in selling items needed by experts at the Earth Immortal realm.

As for the second floor, it specializes in selling pills and other items needed by experts at the Celestial Immortal realm.

Only the third floor is the place specifically for receiving experts at the Golden Immortal realm.

Before long, Chen Xuan and the female cultivator appeared on the third floor.

The third floor isn't very big.

But the furnishings here are much better than those on the first and second floors.

Even when Chen Xuan entered, he could smell a faint fragrance.

It made him feel instantly refreshed and happy.

"Is this a top-grade calming incense?"

Chen Xuan asked with a surprised expression.

Premium calming incense!

These are rare and precious materials that even true immortals would only use when attempting to break through to a higher realm.

Unexpectedly, Xuanbaoge used this as incense; it was extremely extravagant.

"Hehe, senior is truly knowledgeable. The incense burning here is of the highest quality, the Tranquilizing Incense. What would you like, senior? It would be convenient for me to arrange it for you!" the female cultivator said with a smile.

"I need some healing elixirs!"

Chen Xuan said directly.

"Senior, please look this way. These are all healing pill formulas for sale. Please take a look!"

The female cultivator pointed to a row of shelves and explained with a smile.

Chen Xuan's curious gaze swept across the shelves.

They discovered that there were indeed many prescriptions for elixirs here.

However, these are all very ordinary modified formulas.

It had little effect on Chen Xuan.

This made him frown immediately.

"Does the Xuanbao Pavilion only contain these healing pill formulas?"

"This……"

The female cultivator was taken aback.

I don’t know how to explain it.

Just as she was about to ask Chen Xuan about his specific requirements, she heard a calm female voice coming from the private room on the third floor.

"Cuiping, go and greet the other guests. This fellow Daoist, I will personally receive him!"

Soon, a female cultivator dressed in a long emerald green dress appeared before Chen Xuan with a cold and aloof expression.

Her beautiful eyes swept over Chen Xuan.

Upon seeing that Chen Xuan was only at the early stage of Sword Immortal, she immediately said indifferently, "I am Gong Hongzhu. If you are truly interested in purchasing the pill formula, why don't you state your terms?"

"In our Xuanbao Pavilion, there are only pill formulas that you can name; there are no pill formulas that we don't have!"

Upon hearing this, Chen Xuan frowned slightly.

He quickly and bluntly asked, "May I ask, fairy, do you have any ancient pill formulas here to enhance the strength of divine sense? In addition, I also need some pill formulas for cultivating the Vajra Dharma Form."

Upon hearing this, the Fairy of Red Candles was immediately taken aback.

When she looked at Chen Xuan, her face was full of apology.

After a long silence, she said awkwardly, "Fellow Daoist, these pill formulas you requested are truly extraordinary. We at Xuanbao Pavilion don't actually have them."

Upon hearing this, Chen Xuan gave a cold laugh.

"Didn't you just say that your Xuanbao Pavilion has all kinds of pill formulas? Why are these few formulas missing?"
