Chapter 175: Massive Purchases (Part )

the next day.

Li Mo and Lu Cuicui made an appointment to go to the market at the foot of the mountain to buy magic tools, and then went to Anle City together to participate in the Flower Festival auction on the black market.

Lu Cuicui took three days off for this.

"What magical tool are you planning to buy?"

Lu Cuicui was so happy that her steps became much lighter when walking on the road.

"All my magic weapons were destroyed in that battle, so I'm almost out of options now. Luckily, I have quite a few spirit stones. I'm planning to buy a top-grade offensive and defensive magic weapon as a transition."

The Ice Crystal Feather Fan has been handed over to the master, and the Yin Water Pot needs to be nurtured for at least two or three years.

He now only has three magical weapons at hand: the binding rope, the Qingming crane cloak, and the concealment cloak.

"By the way, haven't you accumulated a lot of contributions from your master? Have you checked the weapon refining hall?"

"No, I plan to exchange these contributions for spiritual medicine in the future. I have four pill recipes on me, so although I have accumulated a lot of contributions, it is probably still far from enough compared to the spiritual medicine I need."

For mid-level disciples, contribution to the sect is more important than spirit stones.

Although the thousand-year-old elixirs of Lingmu Sect are rare, as a sect with a history of over a thousand years, they are not short of thousand-year-old elixirs in the general sense.

As far as Li Mo knows.

In the spiritual fields of the Alchemy Hall, there are even some spiritual medicines that have been carefully cultivated by generations of Alchemy Hall masters and nourished by the spiritual energy of the heaven and earth of Qingming Mountain. They are more than two thousand years old.

However, the higher the level of the elixir recipe, the more specific the types of spiritual herbs needed to refine the elixir.

It is no longer possible to use spiritual medicines with the same properties as when refining low-level spiritual pills.

However, these specific types of thousand-year-old elixirs that are not useful to the high-level monks of this sect may be priceless treasures to the monks of other sects.

Therefore, high-level monks from different sects often go to Yuancheng to conduct transactions.

"I really envy you."

Lu Cuicui looked disappointed.

"Since I was little, every time I saw the elders of the Lu family, they would sigh and lament. They would all be asking each other for ways to take elixirs to clear the blockage after experiencing a stagnation in their magic power. My mother was the same. You haven't encountered such a stagnation yet. It's no exaggeration to say that you are a genius in our sect."

After half a stick of incense time.

Li Mo brought Lu Cuicui to the Jinbao Pavilion in the market town at the foot of the mountain and went straight to the second floor.

Now he has quite a lot of spirit stones on him, so naturally he doesn't need to save costs and buy high-grade magic tools just for a few hundred spirit stones.

"kindness?"

Li Mo had just entered the second floor when he noticed a defensive magic weapon. It was a set of top-grade magic weapons made up of five tortoise shells, and the price was ridiculously high, reaching two thousand five hundred spirit stones.

"Shopkeeper, let me see this set of top-grade magical instruments."

Upon hearing this, the shopkeeper came over with a smile.

"Sir, you have a good eye. This set of Five Elements Black Tortoise Shields is made of a combination of tortoise shells representing the five elements of gold, wood, water, fire, and earth. With the harmonious combination of the five elements, it is definitely a top-notch magical weapon. However, the price... hehe, is naturally quite high, requiring 2,500 spirit stones."

In the general sense, the price of a top-grade magic weapon is around 1,500 to 1,800 spirit stones.

This set of Five Elements Basalt Shield is indeed extremely powerful.

Even after witnessing the many methods of the True Demon's clone and understanding the powerful strength of the cultivators in the late Foundation Establishment stage, he was quite satisfied with this set of defensive magic weapons.

During the foundation-building stage, this set of magical instruments can be of great use.

"good."

After Li Mo gave a positive evaluation, he looked at the martial arts-type magic tools in the display cabinet.

But from his current perspective, these so-called top-grade magic weapons could hardly satisfy him. Finally, he noticed a white feather fan and looked surprised.

"Sir, you have a good eye. This ice crystal feather fan was made from the tail feathers of a frost-frozen bird that had formed a demonic elixir after its death. It's said that seven were made in total, and all were given as rewards to those who made contributions. This feather fan was left behind by one of them after his death. It only costs 1,500 spirit stones."

Upon hearing this, Li Mo picked up the ice crystal feather fan and after just a brief test, his gaze froze slightly.

He was absolutely certain that this was Liu Biao's ice crystal feather fan.

How is this going?

"I want both of these magical instruments."

Li Mo calmly took out four thousand spirit stones, and the spirit stones floated in the air.

The shopkeeper immediately smiled happily, and after carefully counting with his divine sense and confirming the correct quantity, he handed the Five Elements Black Tortoise Shield and Ice Crystal Feather Fan to Li Mo.

"Sir, please take your time. This shop is directly operated by our sect's weapon refining hall. We are honest and fair in our prices!"

Li Mo waved his hand and first took Lu Cuicui to the material shop to buy a batch of high-end refining materials. Then he went to Lu Shun's wine shop. The three of them drank like gods, and then returned to Lingmu Gate and took a flying boat to Anle City.

After only two hours, the flying boat arrived at Anle City.

Li Mo and Lu Cuicui got off the flying boat and strolled hand in hand on the bustling streets. When they were tired, they came to a restaurant for a meal.

As four plates of exquisite dishes were brought to the table by the waiter, Li Mo called him.

"Where is the Qi family in Anle City?"

"Oh, you mean the Daohua Trading Company? It's right at the intersection of Chaotian Street and Meishi Road!"

After the waiter left, Li Mo shook his head and smiled.

After being an inspector for a long time, he has become accustomed to being called the inspector. Fortunately, the other party is a waiter and is well-informed, otherwise he would probably have no idea what Li Mo is talking about.

Lu Cuicui had a small appetite and showed a look of regret.

"what happened?"

"Oh, there's so much food. I'm afraid it will be wasted if I can't finish it. I heard that many people in the mountain villages don't have enough to eat."

Hearing this, Li Mo nodded seriously.

"You're right, I'll do my best!"

After Li Mo finished speaking, he stopped being polite and started eating with big mouthfuls of food, until he had completely finished the food. Then the two of them smiled at each other and took out two hundred and twenty coins to pay the bill.

Tomorrow is the Flower Festival.

According to the customs of the Daqian Kingdom, night markets will be held in various places tonight.

For Anle City, the capital of the state that always keeps its lights on, the residents will stay up all night tonight, partying without sleep. Li Mo and Lu Cuicui enjoyed themselves all the way, reluctant to leave.

It was not until the evening of Xu that the two arrived at the Qi family black market in Anle City.

Compared with the small courtyard in Bai'an City, the Qi family in Anle City is a giant tower that is hundreds of feet high. It is lit up by spirit stone lamps everywhere. It is brilliantly lit and magnificent. It is considered one of the landmark buildings of Anle City.

"Wow!"

Lu Cuicui stood at the foot of the tower, looked up and exclaimed in amazement.

People continued to gather here from all directions and enter this brightly lit tower.

"Shall we go in too?"

"kindness!"

Then Li Mo and Lu Cuicui followed the crowd into the spacious first floor hall.

The ground is covered with a red carpet that conceals a dust-removal ban. Surrounding it are shops selling various props, magical instruments, and materials. In the center is a fairy-like high platform where a group of cranes dance to the sound of chimes.

Sudden.

These cranes, with their movements in perfect unison, actually changed with the rhythm of the musicians hitting the chimes, and transformed into a group of graceful and otherworldly men and women. Their movements did not slow down at all, and they continued to dance to the music, which was magnificent.

The onlookers cheered.

Li Mo and Lu Cuicui were also in the crowd and were impressed by this exquisite performance.

"Li Mo, are they spiritual cranes or cultivators?"

Li Mo tried to figure it out, but shook his head helplessly.

"This place is shrouded in rune restrictions. The platform is almost like an illusion. I can't tell the difference between real and fake."

"It's amazing."

Lu Cuicui was amazed and praised it highly.

"Let's go, the black market auction upstairs is about to begin."

"it is good."

The two arrived at the auction hall of the Ninth Floor Black Market, and were greeted by a monk in a blue-gray crane cloak.

"Welcome to this auction. Please show us your ticket numbers."

Li Mo took out the VIP token he had obtained from the black market in Bai'an County.

"So you are VIPs, please come in!"

Led by the waiter, the two entered the auction hall that could accommodate about a thousand people, entered the second-floor compartment area, and looked down at the auction table from a high vantage point.

As the afternoon approached, more and more people entered the auction hall, filling up the venue that could accommodate a thousand people.

It was Lu Cuicui's first time attending such a large auction, and she was a little excited.

Li Mo took out a red spiritual fruit from the fruit plate in front of him. As a stream of sweet juice overflowed, he felt the spiritual power flowing between his lips and teeth. He couldn't help but let out a beautiful moan and nodded with satisfaction.

At this time.

An old man walked up to the auction table.

"Dear fellow Taoists, welcome to this auction. My surname is Huang, and my given name is Zhao, meaning Huang Zhao. I have the honor of hosting this grand auction. I hope all the fellow Taoists in Muzhou will come and support me."

The audience fell silent.

A waiter came over with a tray and gently placed a jade bottle on the auction table. The old man nodded and smiled slightly.

"Here is the first item for sale in this auction, a Jade Emperor Pill!"

Huang Zhao showed everyone the white elixir in front of him.

"Jade Emperor Pill?"

Li Mo faintly heard someone calling out.

"I'm sure many of you here don't know about Ling Nation's Jade Emperor Sect. Ling Nation's Taoist tradition is the Wuji Dao, which requires cultivators to practice single-mindedly and constantly push their limits. Meanwhile, the Jade Emperor Sect's cultivators pursue a pure and flawless body of ice and jade."

This was the first time Li Mo had heard of the so-called Jade Emperor Sect, and he immediately became interested.

The auctioneer gave a detailed explanation on the stage.

"This so-called Jade Emperor Pill was developed by the alchemists of the Jade Emperor Sect. It's said to be one of the few elixirs in the world, besides the Foundation Establishment Pill, that can assist Qigong practitioners in building their foundations. Fellow Daoists who are stuck at the twelfth level of Qigong due to their physical constitutions should hurry up. The starting price for this pill is 500 Spirit Stones!"

"Five hundred and fifty spirit stones!"

"Five hundred and eighty spirit stones..."

The opening item of this auction is very popular.

After all, most of the people who come here to participate in the auction are cultivators in the Qi training stage.

Foundation-building cultivators and Core-forming cultivators are only a minority.

As the opening item of the auction, it was necessary to find a way to mobilize the atmosphere on site. In a short period of time, this Jade Emperor Pill was auctioned at a high price of thousands of spirit stones, and the price was still rising. This made Li Mo a little surprised.

"As far as I know, the Foundation Establishment Pill is an excellent item for assisting Qi training cultivators in advancing to the Foundation Establishment stage. If one isn't enough, then two, three, or even four. Why are so many people fighting over this pill?"

Upon hearing this, Lu Cuicui seemed to be thinking about something.

"I heard that some cultivators who are building their foundation not only have to face the problem of gathering mana, but they may also face some special problems, such as hidden injuries, natural disabilities, mutations, and inner demons. Not everyone will have a smooth journey."

"I see."

Hearing this, Li Mo couldn't help but think of Zhu Wei.

It was during his advancement to the foundation-building stage that he encountered his inner demons.

From this, it can be seen that not everyone will be as smooth as Li Mo when building their foundation. Some unfortunate people will encounter various problems.

finally.

This Jade Emperor Pill was bid up to a high price of more than two thousand spirit stones by many cultivators who were at the peak of the twelfth level of Qi training and had no hope of building a foundation.

The lively atmosphere of the auction was completely ignited, and many people showed their eagerness to try.

Li Mo also hopes to be able to bid for a few satisfactory items in the coming period.
