Chapter 30: Spirit Stone Exchange

In the end, Chen Mobai decided to go to the bank for the exchange.

There was no particular reason.

Because when you exchange spirit stones at the bank, the Immortal Sect gives points.

The more you exchange, the more points you get. The point system was developed by the Immortal Sect to nationalize all the spirit stones in the civilian sector.

One spirit stone, after exchange, earns 10,000 points from the bank. After spending it, another 10,000 points are credited, doubling the benefit.

After school, he walked into the branch of the National Bank in Danxia City.

"Sir, hello. May I help you with anything?"

In the bank, a short-haired, sweetly smiling uniformed lady saw Chen Mobai standing in front of the number-taking machine, looking a bit hesitant, and immediately walked over to ask kindly.

"It seems there's no service I need here."

"May I ask what service you need, sir?"

"Spirit stone exchange."

"Sir, I'm sorry, but our spirit stone exchange service is not yet available."

The short-haired lady's smile remained unchanged, but she looked apologetic.

"No, you misunderstood. I mean exchanging spirit stones, not for spirit stones."

"Ah..."

Seeing her suddenly stiffened smile, Chen Mobai couldn't help but shrug.

After a few seconds, she came back to her senses and cautiously confirmed.

"Is it for exchanging spirit stones into merit points?"

"Um!"

"Sorry, please wait here for a moment, I'll call the manager."

The short-haired lady immediately raised her hand and guided Chen Mobai to a small, glass-enclosed room. After he sat down, she even poured him a cup of tea.

At this moment, a man in a suit walked over, introduced himself, and extended his hand to Chen Mobai after entering the room.

"Sir, hello, I am..."

An hour later, Chen Mobai walked out of the bank with a satisfied look on his face.

Spirit stone exchange has always been the bank's top priority, and they exchange as much as they can. Chen Mobai first had his spirit stone appraised to confirm it was unused, which made the rest of the process much smoother.

First, he explained the origin of the spirit stone.

Chen Mobai attributed it to his ancestors, saying it was accumulated during the war of opening and had been passed down to him.

The bank only recorded it and did not conduct a real investigation.

After confirming that Chen Mobai was a good citizen with no credit issues, the process began.

Although Chen Mobai just sat there, someone helped him with everything, but it still took a full hour for the merit points and points to be credited to his account.

Chen Mobai originally wanted to exchange the used spirit stone shell as well, thinking that the Immortal Sect, with its spirit energy infusion technology, might also buy it.

However, the man in the suit told him that this service, like spirit stone exchange, was only available during the war of opening.

Chen Mobai could only feel regretful.

But looking at the five-digit balance on his phone, Chen Mobai couldn't help but smile.

He had never had so many merit points before.

However, he didn't get carried away. After the excitement, he first used his large account at the National Library to exchange for the Pure Yang Cultivation Technique. But it wasn't convenient to read on the way, so he could only glance at it briefly.

As he was about to get home, he saw the pharmacy where he had bought the spirit energy test paper last time.

The Three Yang Constitution would transform the spirit root, and the extent of the transformation depended on the spirit energy and luck, so it was best to monitor the values at all times.

Chen Mobai thought for a moment and walked in.

"Hello... Oh, you're here?"

Originally, he saw no one at the counter and was about to call out, but unexpectedly, the girl in the white nurse's uniform he had seen last time came out from the back door with a large iron pot and a big box of small glass tubes.

"Um, I set up a small array at the entrance, so it automatically alerts me in the back when someone comes in."

The girl recognized Chen Mobai and remembered the last time. She first put the things on the counter, then cast a cleaning spell to remove the medicine smell from her body before coming over to greet him.

She was still wearing a mask, so her face was unclear, but her eyebrows and eyes were delicate, and her eyes were clear. Chen Mobai felt his mind calm down after looking into her eyes, and the restlessness from his sudden wealth gradually dissipated.

"What do you want to buy? More spirit energy test paper?"

"No, do you have a spirit detector?"

"This is quite expensive. Are you running a tutoring class?"

The girl looked at Chen Mobai with confusion in her eyes. Spirit energy test paper is a one-time use item, but a spirit detector can be used repeatedly. Generally, only those running children's cultivation tutoring classes would buy this, as they need to use it extensively to teach according to individual needs.

"I need to practice a technique to enhance my spirit root and need to monitor my spirit root attributes at all times."

"Enhance spirit root technique? Is there such a cultivation method?"

The girl seemed to be about the same age as Chen Mobai and hadn't gone to college yet, so she didn't know about the cultivation method to purify the spirit root.

"Um, my spirit root quality is average, and the college entrance exam is coming up soon. The hope of breaking through to the late Qi Cultivation stage is slim, so I can only try to improve my spirit root, hoping to get extra points to enter one of the top ten academies."

After hearing Chen Mobai's words, the girl nodded and squatted down in front of a medicine cabinet, then took out a well-packaged spirit detector from a drawer.

"580 merit points."

Hearing the price, Chen Mobai's mouth twitched, feeling a bit impulsive.

A spirit energy test paper costs 5 merit points, and this spirit detector could buy over a hundred sheets.

But after some thought, he realized that if he practiced the Pure Yang Body, he would definitely need this. Using disposable spirit energy test papers all the time wasn't very environmentally friendly. He gritted his teeth and paid for it.

Seeing Chen Mobai's hesitant expression as he paid, Qingnü knew he wasn't from a wealthy family and had a thought.

[Why didn't he bargain?]

She had already planned to reduce the price by 10 merit points if Chen Mobai bargained.

But since the customer was generous, she didn't offer a refund. Seeing the notification on her phone, her clear eyes smiled and squinted.

After confirming that Chen Mobai had no other needs, she walked to the counter, picked up the large iron pot with one hand, and poured the freshly refined spirit water into the small glass bottles through the spout, then sealed them with wooden corks. Finally, she cast a "Sealing Spell" to ensure the spirit water wouldn't leak.

[Is it the Restorative Spirit Water again?]

Chen Mobai remembered what she had said last time and thought to himself. He didn't ask, as they had only interacted twice and weren't very familiar.

Holding the spirit detector, he walked out of the pharmacy.

However, he always felt that the scene of the girl pouring the spirit water was familiar.

What exactly made it feel familiar?
