A few seconds later, the staff arrived, and the pin Yi Chen needed was brought to him.

He pricked his thumb, and soon his blood drop got fully absorbed by the golden card, which shone with a subtle light as array symbols flashed on its surface.

The next instant, Yi Chen couldn't help but feel a strong connection with the card that he was holding in his hand.

It was as if it were a part of his own body, and he could fully control it.

"The golden card has successfully been bound to you, Young Master. That's what that feeling symbolises,"

Gao Zhen explained from the side and continued.

"Try thinking of checking its contents inside. I've already placed the required amount of stones."

When Yi Chen heard her, he thought of checking the card's contents just as she had advised, and the next moment, his vision entered the insides of the card.

It was a huge area, and all around him were spirit stones.

They were arranged in an orderly manner with a huge stash of small ones on one side, the ones a little bigger on the other, and the biggest in another place.

However, there was still a large amount of space available inside.

The next moment, he willed his consciousness out of the card and turned towards Gao Zhen.

Just as he had expected, she answered the doubts in his mind.

"I've divided the stones into low, medium and high grade for your convenience.

As you had just seen, there are a hundred thousand low-grade spirit stones, two thousand medium-grade stones and twenty high-grade stones stashed inside.

If Young Master doesn't like this, then I can change it all to low-grade Spirit stones as well,"

Gao Zhen suggested.

The only reason Zhou Tian had stated a transfer of five hundred thousand low-grade spirit stones in the scroll was that only the golden card had that much limit.

So in a way, he was indirectly telling her to provide Yi Chen with a golden card so that he could benefit from the privileges, which told her about the importance with which Yi Chen was seen by Zhou Tian.

"No, there won't be any need for that. It looks well organised right now," Yi Chen rejected the suggestion as he liked what he saw.

In the Kingdom, apart from gold, silver and bronze notes, Spirit stones were also used as a medium of exchange.

Ten gold notes equated to One Low Grade Spirit Stone.

A hundred Low Grade Spirit Stones equated to one Medium Grade Spirit Stone.

Similarly, a hundred Medium Grade Spirit Stones equated to one High Grade Spirit Stone.

Thinking about the extra space that was still left inside his card, Yi Chen asked, "Can I use this golden card as a storage space for other things as well?"

"Unfortunately, no," Gao Zhen stated with a smile and continued, "Storage artefacts require a lot of variables to be taken care of before being made.

This card could only be considered a lesser imitation of a storage artefact, as it can only store spirit stones.

However, if you're looking for storage artefacts, we do have them in our Pavilion. If you're interested, then how about I show you around the pavilion?

You just might find a few things you're interested in."

Gao Zhen suggested that despite the piles of paper, she still needed to go through them by the day's end.

The reason for her suggestion was simple: curiosity.

"Sure! I would love that," Yi Chen readily agreed. If the other party was so readily offering to help him, he saw no need to refuse her.

A smile formed on Gao Zhen's face as she stood up the next moment, "Very well, let's go then."

Yi Chen stood up the next moment, and together the two of them soon left for the staircase.

"As you must have seen while entering, we have six floors in total. The first and second floors are for receiving the guests, whereas the sixth floor is for all the guild-related work.

It's the third, fourth and fifth floors where we sell items."

As Gao Zhen finished her explanation, they were already on the third floor.

Pointing towards a signboard, she said, "As you can see, this is the Alchemy Floor. Here we sell all the items related to Alchemy.

From pills to ingredients that are required to create those pills, you can find it all on this floor."

Gao Zhen introduced the floor with a sense of pride in her voice.

Yi Chen nodded in acknowledgement as he took in the medicinal smell from the floor.

'I feel as if I've entered a hospital…' Yi Chen thought to himself.

"Come, I'll show you around," Gao Zhen said and took him inside to explore.

Rows of shelves enclosed in glass were present on the floor, and inside each shelf, many medicines and pills of different kinds were placed.

As they passed by a few medicinal herbs, Yi Chen's gaze fell upon a shelf filled with bottles of pills.

There were more than three cultivators already standing around it and were discussing some things with the staff standing beside the shelf.

"These are our best sellers, Qi Nourishment Pills. Would Young Master like to buy some?" Gao Zhen suggested with a smile.

"Qi Nourishment Pills?" Yi Chen's eyes glimmered when he heard this. However, there was no hurry to buy them, so he said, "I'll think about it later. It's best that I save my Spirit stones for buying the storage bags,"

A meaningful smile formed on Gao Zhen's face when she heard this and said, "There are even more interesting items to see here. Let me show them to you before we go to the next floor."

The two then walked around the floor, and Yi Chen came to know about various kinds of pills.

From Mind Calming Pills, which were used to remove mental exhaustion and make one enter a peak mental state, to simple Healing Pills that promote recuperation after injury.

Finally, pointing towards a separate glass case, which had about ten bottles with red pills each, she said.

"These are the most expensive pills we have right now. They are the Meridian Cleansing Pills, and just one of them costs 10 High Grade Spirit Stones," Gao Zhen introduced.

"This…" Yi Chen frowned when he heard her words.

'So expensive? From its name…will it help me increase my cultivation faster if I take it?'

Seeing the frown which she had grown used to by now, Gao Zhen explained.

"Using these pills, a Meridian Refinement Stage cultivator can break through to the Qi Absorption Stage."

"Then… does everyone need it?" Yi Chen asked the first question that came to his mind.
