Ji Yuan took out the Communication Talisman that was slightly flickering, while also pondering in his heart.

Once I'm at All Things Island, I need to purchase some blank Communication Talismans. Now that I've successfully reached Foundation Establishment, I can use my Divine Sense to imprint them, thus having my own Communication Talisman.

Then I can send my Communication Talisman to Dong Qian, Du Wanyi, and Elder Xu. In case of any emergencies, it will be easy to contact them.

"I wonder when they'll return from Nine Nether Cave Heaven. By my calculations, they should already be on their way back now."

Ji Yuan was still quite concerned about Du Wanyi. After all, while she is powerful within the Peak of Qi Refining, she is not considered among the strongest.

A thought flashed through his mind, and Ji Yuan's Divine Sense swept through the Communication Talisman in his hand.

Li Changhe's voice resounded in his mind.

"Junior Brother Ji, how's the island selection going? When's the island opening celebration? Remember to let me know, and I'll prepare a grand gift for you, haha."

Upon hearing this, Ji Yuan thought to himself that it was as expected.

After a bit of consideration, he didn't directly tell Li Changhe that he wasn't holding the island opening celebration.

He simply said that he wasn't ready yet and would inform him first thing once the date was set... Speaking directly would definitely lead to Li Changhe advising him again.

But if he could wait for a while, for the return of those going to Nine Nether Cave Heaven...

Among people like Feng Yichen, there will surely be some that can establish foundations, and by then, as time passes, it will naturally be mostly forgotten.

In this way, Ji Yuan could continue to tend to his farming in peace.

After finishing the conversation, the two chatted a bit more, mostly Li Changhe asking if Ji Yuan was lacking anything, such as setting up Arrays, and mentioning that if anything seemed troublesome, he could just let him know.

Not long after, Ji Yuan, dressed in the standard dark blue Magic Robe that only Foundation Establishment Stage disciples could wear, landed on All Things Island.

As soon as he landed, he felt the eager gazes of the surrounding disciples, and those who were more "savvy" bowed to Ji Yuan from afar.

Ji Yuan nodded to them expressionlessly, though in reality... he felt quite pleased inside.

In the end, his mind was not quite there yet, being disturbed by these external things. But then again, cultivation is about having a clear mind. At this moment, his thoughts were clear, and that was enough.

Afterwards, Ji Yuan found a shop specializing in the Demon Beast trade and sold a mid-stage Tier Two Demon Pill given by Phoenix Peach, along with four early-stage Tier Two Demon Pills he had saved.

This time, he didn't go to Phoenix Peach's Suspended Demon Shop.

It felt somewhat inappropriate to sell the Demon Pills she gave him back to her own shop.

In total, he sold five Demon Pills for 128 mid-grade Spirit Stones, with the four early-stage Demon Pills fetching 83, and the mid-stage 45.

For a Foundation Establishment Stage cultivator, it's not considered wealthy, but for Ji Yuan right now, it was barely enough to sustain his current cultivation needs, plus upgrade his Fish Pond.

As for the Foundation Establishment Pill, Ji Yuan didn't plan to sell it just yet.

He wouldn't get good value here; it's better to take it to the auction house.

After selling the Demon Pills, Ji Yuan inquired if the shop had ice attribute Demon Beast blood.

As expected, they had none. The ice attribute is considered a rare Abnormal Spirit Root among Human Race cultivators.

It's equally scarce among Demon Beasts.

Ji Yuan searched four or five Demon Beast shops before finally finding it, and it wasn't cheap; just a small amount would cost 20 mid-grade Spirit Stones.

It was worth a single early-stage Tier Two Demon Pill.

Upgrading the Fish Pond to Level 3 required "a pot" according to the panel, but it didn't specify how large a pot.

Ji Yuan initially thought of being sly and buying half an ounce to put in a small pot, but ultimately he abandoned this idea.

Building upgrades aren't suitable for cunning tactics.

Then Ji Yuan went to the Hundred Treasures Tower and bought 3 pieces of Mystic Ice Crystal, costing him 9 mid-grade Spirit Stones.

The remaining Communication Talismans... were of two types, one white, the other golden.

The difference between the two lies in the transmission distance.

For example, a white Communication Talisman can only exchange information within Chulong Island, but the golden one can transmit messages throughout the entire Water Dragon Sect.

For even further distances, Talismans wouldn't work and would require a specially made Communication Flying Sword.

The prices aren't cheap either, with 1 mid-grade Spirit Stone for two white Communication Talismans and 5 mid-grade Spirit Stones for a single golden Communication Talisman.

Giving someone a golden Communication Talisman is like giving away 5 mid-grade Spirit Stones.

True social interaction value.

Foundation Establishment, along with various building upgrades, pushed Ji Yuan, who had barely risen to the level of a well-off farmer, back into poverty.

He only purchased 3 golden Communication Talismans, along with 8 white Communication Talismans.

The rest... he'll wait for others to give him as gifts.

Typically, when gifting Communication Talismans between Foundation Establishment cultivators, unless the relationship is unusual, like that between Ji Yuan and Phoenix Peach of the same sect.

It's usually those who see greater value in the other party that actively offer their Communication Talisman.

Ji Yuan had also thought of learning how to draw these Communication Talismans to make some money, but after asking a bit more, he gave up on the idea.

Communication Talismans can be reused, so their wear rate is too low.

Compared to that, it would be more profitable to invest in Attack Talismans with higher usage rates.

So Ji Yuan bought a lot of Tier Two Talisman Paper and Talisman Ink, and planned to go into a good retreat once he finished his business here.

Having bought everything he needed on All Things Island, Ji Yuan initially thought of looking for Hua Yaoyue, but halfway there, he couldn't help thinking about crafting an iron box Magical Artifact as his Cave Mansion.
