I Just Want to Cultivate Quietly and Farm

Chapter 308: Chapter 198: Tier Six Soul-Devouring Spear

Soon, a robust, amiable-faced man in his fifties walked into the VIP room with a warm smile.

”Fellow Daoist, sorry to keep you waiting. I am Lin Baoqing, may I know your esteemed surname?” Lin Baoqing, also with Nascent Soul cultivation, introduced himself with concern.

”My surname is Zhang, Shopkeeper. How much is the total for the goods I requested?” Li Mu casually used Old Man Zhang’s surname and got straight to the point.

Li Mu’s expression was indifferent, giving off a vibe of detachment and unapproachability.

Lin Baoqing, having interacted with countless people, knew well that such individuals dislike revealing too much sensitive information, and thus, deeper emotional exchanges were off the table.

With a brilliant smile, Lin Baoqing flipped through the ledger and estimated: ”The batch Fellow Daoist Zhang purchased is considerable in quantity, and of very high quality. The total price is 26.5 million Middle Spirit Stones; I’ll round it down to 25 million for you! As for the other batch you ordered, it also totals over ten million Middle Spirit Stones. Our pavilion will prepare it within seven days, and you only need to pay a thirty percent deposit!”

”Agreed!” Li Mu nodded in agreement, with no objections to Lin Baoqing’s offer.

Hearing this, Lin Baoqing couldn’t help but rejoice. Such a generous and decisive customer was rare indeed! He glanced at Wan’Er, who was almost swooning with joy on the side, feeling a bit envious of the young girl. Her commission from this deal would be something an ordinary person couldn’t earn in a lifetime!

”By the way, do you have Dragon Transformation Spirit Grass?” Li Mu suddenly remembered his promise to the Two-Horned Cyan Moon Flood Dragon and inquired of Lin Baoqing.

”Dragon Transformation Spirit Grass is a Tier Five Spirit Grass with extremely harsh survival conditions; it must cohabit with high-tier Flood Dragon Qi to grow. Generally, it can’t be artificially cultivated. This spirit grass has the effect of stimulating bloodlines and consolidating the Essence Soul, aiding in the purification of the Flood Dragon’s bloodline and elevating its tier. It is exceedingly rare, and our pavilion currently has no stock. Other firms likely don’t either,” Lin Baoqing shook his head.

Upon hearing this, Li Mu nodded slightly, feeling some regret.

”Fellow Daoist Zhang, if you’re not in a hurry, you could wait three months. Three months from now, our pavilion will hold an annual auction, attracting esteemed guests from all directions. With countless treasures appearing, there might be Dragon Transformation Spirit Grass or even higher-tier spirit grasses up for auction. Here is a Bidding Order; you’re warmly invited to attend then,” Lin Baoqing said, extracting a Purple Gold Token from his bosom with both hands and presented it to Li Mu with an enthusiastic invitation.

Hearing this, Li Mu couldn’t help but feel intrigued. He accepted the Bidding Order with a smile and nodded, ”Very well, I’ll come and have a look then!”

”Great, Fellow Daoist, is there anything else you need?” Lin Baoqing smiled brightly.

”I need to dispose of a batch of goods. Have these appraised to see how much they can offset in Spirit Stones!” Li Mu stored the Bidding Order in the Nine Treasures Spirit Pearl, then reached into his chest and pulled out a handful of Storage Rings and Storage Bracelets from the Storage Compartment, spoils he had gathered since leaving the Qing Xuan Sect.

Li Mu, quite wealthy, especially after acquiring the war spoils of the Nine Nether Demon Venerable, had amassed millions of Top-Grade Spirit Stones and Top-grade Spirit Stones in the Nine Treasures Spirit Pearl, not to mention Middle-grade Spirit Stones and Low-grade Spirit Stones.

However, these Spirit Stones were all crucial for Li Mu.

Activating the Nine Dragons Slaying Immortal Array consumed exorbitant amounts of Spirit Stones.

Each activation required hundreds, if not thousands, of Top-Grade Spirit Stones, and that was just the requirement for two Flood Dragons. If all nine dragons were assembled, the Spirit Stone expenditure would be astronomical.

And then, there was the high-tier puppet army and the Spirit Plants’ array formation, all consuming Spirit Stones, so every Spirit Stone had to be spent judiciously by Li Mu.

So, whenever possible, Li Mu avoided spending Spirit Stones, preparing instead to dispose of the war spoils from twenty Nascent Soul Demon Monarchs and the Nine Nether Demon Venerable’s Demon Artifacts.

Lin Baoqing was momentarily stunned, carefully receiving over twenty Storage Rings and dozens of Storage Bracelets.

Casually, Lin Baoqing took out one of the Storage Rings and extended his Divine Sense into it, and the next second, his previously composed expression froze, his eyes widened in disbelief as he murmured, ”Five Tier Five Magical Artifacts, two hundred Tier Four Spiritual Artifacts, Tier Three Spiritual Artifacts, ...”

Lin Baoqing’s demeanor became increasingly excited, as he scanned each Storage Ring and Storage Bracelet with his Divine Sense, finding Spirit Swords, Spirit Axes, Spirit Banners, Spirit Claws... many spiritual artifacts, most used by Demon Cultivators, totaling over six hundred pieces combined.

Soon, Lin Baoqing felt a suffocating sensation, solemnly looking at Li Mu with a newfound respect.

Lin Baoqing had never seen a Nascent Soul Cultivator capable of pulling out so many Storage Rings and Storage Bracelets, as well as so many Demon Artifacts to sell in one go. It might not be possible to acquire such a number even if a whole Demon Sect were exterminated!

The grade and quality of this batch of Demon Artifacts and Spiritual Artifacts were all exceptionally high, though they were second-hand, their value was substantial.

”Fellow Daoist Zhang, you’ll have to wait a while, as I need to invite several Spirit Appraisers to estimate the price of these many spiritual objects!” Lin Baoqing took a deep breath and said respectfully to Li Mu.

”Mm! I’ll just wait then!” Li Mu nodded in agreement.

Very soon, Lin Baoqing urgently summoned a group of Spirit Appraisers, a full ten in total, some in their sixties, others in their thirties. Each took a few Storage Rings and Storage Bracelets to examine carefully and solemnly.

”Fellow Daoist Zhang, if there’s no mistake, this batch of spiritual objects should be spoils from slaying Demon Cultivators, yes? Your cultivation is indeed formidable, my respect to you, Lin!” Lin Baoqing accompanied Li Mu, pouring him a cup of Spirit Tea, speaking with admiration.

”Eliminating demons and safeguarding the Dao is our duty!” Li Mu chuckled, casually responding, then suddenly remembered something and reminded, ”Oh, right, there is a Tier Six Magical Artifact inside, it has restrictions but isn’t complete, you must be careful, ...”
