Chapter 176: Massive Purchases

Chapter 176: Massive Purchases (Part )

Half an hour later.

Li Mo changed his lazy sitting posture and straightened his body instantly.

He looked at the top-grade flying needle magic weapon on the auction table.

Lu Cuicui noticed something and couldn't help but observe carefully.

"Are you interested in this flying needle magic weapon?"

"Ah."

Although Li Mo has never owned a flying needle-type magic weapon, he has been quite wary of this type of sneak attack magic weapon since his time in the training hall.

Previously, when he was fighting against the demon with the original true demon bloodline in Bai'an City, he also used the method of breaking the formation and simulating the flying needle magic weapon to gain the upper hand.

Now that I see this flying needle magic weapon of excellent quality, I am naturally quite tempted.

"The next top-grade flying needle magic weapon to be auctioned is the famous Xuanming Needle of the Yu Kingdom's Zhuixian Palace!"

Auctioneer Huang Zhao worked hard to explain on the stage.

"Many fellow Taoists may not be familiar with the Falling Immortal Palace. The cultivators of Yu Nation pursue the path of bliss. Therefore, almost all of them are proficient in the secret techniques of sex and can enjoy indescribable bliss. The Falling Immortal Palace is said to be able to bring the ultimate bliss within Yu Nation. However, in this ultimate bliss, people gradually degenerate and become slaves to the pursuit of pleasure. This is the origin of the Falling Immortal Palace."

Li Mo couldn't help but gasp in amazement in the audience.

The vital yin energy of the Goddess Palace, the dual cultivation demon statue of the Xiaoji Palace, and the ultimate joy of the Fallen Immortal Palace.

Although he had never been to the southern Yu Kingdom, he could already deeply feel the abilities and tendencies of the monks under the Jile Daoist tradition.

"The Mysterious Nether Needle of the Falling Immortal Palace not only ignores magical shields, but also possesses a strangely harmless property, unable to be actively blocked by automatic defensive magical instruments. Some who have experienced the ultimate pleasure of the Falling Immortal Palace will completely lose the will to fight against the Mysterious Nether Needle. It is like the most addictive drug in the world..."

Upon hearing this, everyone at the scene sighed.

After hearing this, Li Mo couldn't help but look surprised.

When it comes to this type of flying needle magic weapon, the Yu State was the most famous.

The two countries are far apart, and as a native of Daqian, he can know a lot about Yu. He would never believe that there is no cooperation between the two countries.

The same must be true between Daqian and Jin.

"As for this Xuanming Needle, its power increases by half a point with each minion it controls. Unfortunately, as a flying needle magical weapon, while it's powerful for sneak attacks, it's also very easy to damage. This Xuanming Needle, a top-grade flying needle that has been implanted in seven Foundation Establishment cultivators, is truly a top-tier magical weapon, powerful enough to even threaten an unsuspecting Jindan cultivator. The starting price is two thousand spirit stones!"

Li Mo was secretly shocked when he heard the reserve price of this top-grade magic weapon.

But soon someone in the crowd started bidding.

"Two thousand one hundred spirit stones!"

"Two thousand one hundred and fifty spirit stones..."

The black market organizations are really good at business.

This so-called Xuanming Needle is indeed of extraordinary value, but apart from its own value, the black market organization is more for highlighting its scarcity. They transport materials, treasures, and specialties from all over the world to Qian Country or other countries, but they only refuse to sell their own products.

No wonder it’s called the black market.

As for what the auctioneer said, that it was enough to pose a threat to Jindan cultivators, it was pure empty talk.

If a Jindan stage cultivator is caught off guard, not to mention flying needles and magic weapons, even mortal warriors will have the opportunity to kill him at close range.

After all, although most cultivators have amazing magical powers, their bodies are still very fragile.

In terms of life and death, there is no essential change between monks and mortals.

This situation will only change when the cultivator is promoted to the Nascent Soul stage.

In the blink of an eye.

This Xuanming Needle was sold at a high price of three thousand spirit stones, and the number of bidders became very small.

After all, for a top-grade magic weapon, its own value is only about 1,500 spirit stones. Even taking into account the so-called nourishment and certain growth potential, it is at most 2,000 spirit stones.

These extra spirit stones are because this magic weapon comes from a foreign country and is difficult to guard against and control when used in this country.

"Three thousand and fifty spirit stones."

As Li Mo raised his hand to bid, the auctioneer looked over with excitement on his face.

"Someone has offered 3,050 spirit stones. Are there any fellow Taoists willing to bid higher for this treasure?"

finally.

Li Mo bid for the Xuanming Needle with three thousand and fifty spirit stones.

After a while.

A maid came to the second floor carrying a tray and completed the transaction with Li Mo.

Li Mo opened the jade box, picked up the flying needle magic weapon, and clamped it between the index and middle fingers of his right hand. After opening his spiritual eyes and observing it carefully from a close distance, he nodded with satisfaction.

"good."

He carefully confirmed that there were indeed seven rays of spiritual power on this flying needle magic weapon, representing the seven Foundation Establishment cultivators who nourished the flying needle.

Unlike other flying needles, the Xuanming needle is harmless because it is not intended to be fatal. After the patient is injured by the flying needle, he will only feel extreme pleasure and will not suffer pain.

Therefore, in the eyes of those magical instruments with active defense properties, this is a tonic pill similar to aphrodisiac pills, which is somewhat deceptive.

"This flying needle magic weapon is indeed a top-notch one among the best magic weapons. It has been nurtured and nourished by seven foundation-building monks in succession. It is indeed true." After Li Mo put away the flying needle, he handed over the spirit stone and completed the transaction.

After the maid left, Lu Cuicui leaned against Li Mo.

"This amount of spirit stones is almost enough to buy two top-grade magical instruments. Wouldn't it be a waste to just buy one now?"

Li Mo smiled slightly when he heard this.

"For most people, this is indeed a bit of a waste. However, after experiencing the life-and-death battle in Bai'an City, I have come to realize that in a situation between life and death, even if the power of a magic weapon is only increased by half a point, it may be the difference between life and death..."

unconsciously.

Another half hour passed, and Li Mo was attracted by a magic weapon again.

This is actually a wheelless flying carriage, its entire body is like white jade, and there is a monkey-shaped puppet driver on the front of the carriage, which looks quite agile.

"This thing is called the White Jade Flying Car. It can be used for long-distance travel. It's powered by mid-grade spirit stones and protected by a Five Elements shield. It was crafted by a Jindan-stage cultivator from the Qiancheng Sect of the Chewu Kingdom. Not only is this White Jade Flying Car incredibly fast and requires no mana, it also has the ability to autopilot. Look at this spirit monkey; it's the essence of this car."

The auctioneer told the story vividly.

Li Mo was quite tempted.

"I believe that many of you here have some knowledge of the Chewu Kingdom, but I still want to waste some time here to explain it to those who don't know much about it."

Behind the old man, a map appeared.

The large areas on the left and right sides of the map are marked as Qian State and Lu State respectively, which are only parts of the two countries, while the middle area is the four Gobi States.

He pointed to the largest of the four Gobi countries.

"Chewu State is a medium-sized country between Daqian State and Lu State. It has two major sects within its borders, one of which is called Qiancheng Sect. The cultivators of this sect are most skilled in refining flying cars, flying boats, treasure ships, and other devices. This white jade flying car is exquisite and compact, with amazing speed and agility. The starting price is two thousand spirit stones!"

"Two thousand one hundred spirit stones!"

"Two thousand two hundred spirit stones..."

After a fierce competition, it was finally bought by Li Mo at a high price of 3,500 spirit stones.

With this travel tool, he would no longer have to be as embarrassed as before when he encountered a mission requiring long-distance flight in Bai'an County in the future.

This travel tool is quite convenient.

Li Mo quickly completed the transaction with the auction house.

That's it.

Before we knew it, another hour had passed and many items were sold one after another, with very few items failing to sell.

Li Mo couldn't help but look at Lu Cuicui.

"If there's anything you're interested in, you can bid for it. Don't worry about the spirit stones. I still have plenty."

Upon hearing this, Lu Cuicui leaned into Li Mo's arms, smiled slightly, and shook her head.

"I've been trying to research how to make the wooden ox and horse suitable for civilian use. I remember telling you before that I hope those hard-working farmers and workers in the mines can have a more relaxed life."

She did say something similar.

"Do you have an idea?"

"We've got a little bit of it. I think the most important thing is that it's cheap, strong, and energy-efficient. We need to make further improvements based on the wooden ox and horse. If we can reduce the cost of the wooden ox and horse to less than one hundred taels of silver, and each spirit stone can sustain power for one hundred hours, then perhaps it can be truly put into civilian use..."

Li Mo listened quietly to Lu Cuicui's description.

With different goals, the research directions are naturally different. Li Mo listened to Lu Cuicui's discoveries and was occasionally inspired. He also described the polar magnetic axis technology of matrix puppetry.

When Lu Cuicui heard this, her eyes lit up.

"You mean to say that using a polar magnetic shaft instead of lubricated bearings can save energy?"

"Well, is that possible?"

Lu Cuicui was very interested and said, "I'll try it in a few days."

time flies.

Before the auction ends.

Li Mo spared no expense and spent 3,800 spirit stones to buy a thousand-year-old spiritual medicine called Ningxinzhi.

And this is exactly the main ingredient he needs to refine the Ningxin Pill!
The recipe for this pill was exchanged with Cao Lingjie, a Korean monk from Lingcao Sect, during an exchange meeting in Zhongshan Country. It can be used to weaken the bottleneck in the middle stage of foundation building.

However, the Lingmu Sect does not cultivate Ningxinzhi in large quantities.

This way.

As long as his magic power reaches the peak of the initial foundation building stage, he can exchange various century-old auxiliary spiritual medicines needed to refine the Ningxin Pill through contributions from his master, and use this Ningxin Ganoderma as the main medicine to refine the Ningxin Pill.

After the auction is over.

After Li Mo and Lu Cuicui spent another day touring the city, they summoned the white jade flying carriage and returned to Lingmu Gate with a full load.

In just two days, he had spent nearly half of the low-grade spirit stones in his storage ring.

However, these spirit stones were unexpected gains, and these exquisite magic weapons would greatly increase his strength, so he did not take it seriously.
