I Just Want to Cultivate Quietly and Farm

Chapter 93: Chapter 85: Foundation Establishment Trade Fair (Part 1)

”The Celestial Fire is indeed something that an Artifact Refiner desires throughout their life, greatly aiding in artifact refining and has the effect of seizing the creation of heaven and earth. Master Li, although your artifact refining skills are exceptional, this thing cannot be refined by anyone other than a Nascent Soul True Monarch. It would be more suitable for you to first refine a type of Spiritual Fire.” At the end of the introduction, Wang Wenbao advised Li Mu.

Upon hearing this, Li Mu’s brows slightly furrowed, and he silently sighed in his heart.

Celestial Fire is so difficult to obtain, the Spirit-Taming Treasure Bracelet, this Tier Six Spiritual Treasure, may have to stay in the storage compartment for some time.

The High-tier Spiritual Treasure, the Spirit-Taming Treasure Bracelet, cannot be depended upon in the short term, and the Spiritual Turtle Shell is likely the same, so Li Mu can only focus on the Tier Five Thunder Scripture for now.

”Forget it, let’s not think too much about the Celestial Fire!” Li Mu waved his hand and then sought help from Wang Wenbao, ”Shopkeeper Wang, I’ve been researching Thunder-Attribute Spiritual Artifacts lately, could you help me find some Thunder Arrays or Thunder Element Materials?”

”No problem, I’ll do my best to collect them for Master Li. I’ll go to the warehouse and see if there are quite a few Thunder spiritual materials in stock.” Wang Wenbao agreed cheerfully.

”Okay, I should go refine as well. Which spiritual artifacts do you need me to refine? Arrange them quickly! I’ll help you resolve them as soon as possible; in two days, I need to leave once more and won’t return to Gangyang City for another two months.” Li Mu explained with a smile.

Upon hearing this, Wang Wenbao was so anxious that he almost jumped, thinking that Master Li would stay at Ten Thousand Treasures Pavilion for a long time this time! Who knew he wouldn’t even stay for a few days.

”Master Li, shall we go to the Artifact Refining Room now? Let’s arrange the matters right away.” Wang Wenbao, not being polite with Li Mu anymore, gestured invitingly.

Li Mu nodded with a smile and followed Wang Wenbao to the Artifact Refining Workshop.

”By the way, when does Lingyin Daoist’s private trade fair start?” Li Mu curiously asked Wang Wenbao.

”It begins when there are enough participants, there’s no set time. Is Master Li interested in attending?” Wang Wenbao asked with a smile.

”Hmm! If there’s time, I’ll attend, if not, then forget it!” Li Mu said with a smile, not caring too much.

His Innate Divine Power - Recognition of Ten Thousand Spirits might help him find some bargains at such a Foundation Establishment Trade Fair, but having already picked up quite a few high-tier spiritual treasures which he can’t even use, Li Mu couldn’t help but feel a bit disheartened.

”Master Li, if you wish to participate, I’ll arrange it for you.” Wang Wenbao responded with a smile, as connections came easily to him. To procure Cloud Mist Spirit Tea seeds for him, he would need to have a good talk with Lingyin Daoist.

”Thanks a lot!” Li Mu thanked with a smile.

As they spoke, they arrived at the Artifact Refining Workshop.

”Shopkeeper Wang, Master Li!” Liu Zhong hurriedly greeted them respectfully upon seeing their arrival.

”Liu Zhong, go and fetch the refining materials for the ’Soul-breaking Saber’, ’Lingxiao Bow’, and ’Sealing Tower’. Master Li is going to refine!” Wang Wenbao urged Liu Zhong impatiently.

Time is money, and Wang Wenbao deeply cherished Master Li’s time.

”Yes, right away!” Liu Zhong responded promptly and immediately went to the warehouse to fetch the materials.

”Shopkeeper Wang, you go on ahead! I’ll trouble you with the matter of the tea seeds.” Li Mu greeted Wang Wenbao and then walked into the number one Artifact Refining Room.

Watching the silhouette of Li Mu entering the Artifact Refining Room, Wang Wenbao sighed heavily, feeling a headache coming on.

The Tier Two Cloud Mist Spirit Tea had always been the beloved treasure of Lingyin Daoist; obtaining the Spirit Tea seeds from him would likely require paying a considerable price!

Wang Wenbao gritted his teeth, understanding that nothing ventured, nothing gained, he immediately left the Ten Thousand Treasures Pavilion and headed to Lingyin Daoist’s dojo to seek the Spirit Seed for Li Mu.

Time flew by, and two days passed.

In two days, Li Mu stayed in the number one Artifact Refining Room, continuously refining spiritual artifacts, efficiently crafting thirteen Top-Grade Tier Three Spiritual Artifacts, thus completing most of the refining tasks for Ten Thousand Treasures Pavilion.

Looking at the newly crafted Top-Grade Tier Three Spiritual Artifacts one by one, Wang Wenbao was overjoyed beyond measure. Amidst the joy, his smile suddenly vanished, and his face turned grim, as he thought of something distressing.

Other Artifact Refining Honored Guest Elders at Ten Thousand Treasures Pavilion found it incredibly difficult to refine one Top-Grade Tier Three Spiritual Artifact, often needing to burn incense and calm their minds to increase the success rate of refining.

However, it was quite different for Master Li. He was proficient in the Divine Refining Technique, producing one exquisite spiritual artifact after another, with stable quality, high refining efficiency, and success rate, with very little refining material wastage. The proceeds from refining one Tier Three Spiritual Artifact were several times more than those of other Artifact Refining Masters.

Spiritual artifacts are divided into lower, middle, top, and top grades. Lower and middle-grade Tier One Spiritual Artifacts are consumed by Early and Mid-stage Qi Refining cultivators, while Late-Stage Qi Refining cultivators can afford to use Top or Top-Grade Tier One Spiritual Artifacts, or some Lower-Grade Tier Two Spiritual Artifacts.

Foundation Establishment cultivators with insufficient financial resources could also use Middle and Top-Grade Tier Two Spiritual Artifacts, while those with ample resources pursue Top-Grade Tier Two and Middle to Top-Grade Tier Three Spiritual Artifacts, striving to overcome Tier Two demons.

Spiritual artifacts are extremely important for enhancing the combat strength of cultivators. The overall strength of demonic creatures is superior to that of human cultivators, and only by relying on the power of high-tier spiritual artifacts can they prevail.

Therefore, Middle to Top-Grade Tier Three Spiritual Artifacts are not only easy to sell but can also fetch a good price, and for those Foundation Establishment Hunter Cultivators who live day by day, acquiring a handy Top-Grade Tier Three Spiritual Artifact might allow them to single-handedly take on a Tier Two Demon Beast and reap significant rewards, thus embarking on a virtuous cycle.

As for Tier Four and above spiritual artifacts, only Golden Core cultivators can afford to use them, and Master Li hasn’t yet developed the ability to refine them.

However, in Wang Wenbao’s eyes, ’Master Li’, who can steadily produce Top-Grade Tier Three Spiritual Artifacts, is simply a gold mine.
