I Just Want to Cultivate Quietly and Farm

Chapter 736: Chapter 394: Treasure City Treasure Hunt (Part 4)

Walking through the Exotic Items Trading Area, Li Mu’s steps were relaxed, neither hurried nor slowed, weaving through the bustling crowd. His figure was like a unique sight to behold.

Around him, stalls and shops displayed a dazzling array of products, various rare treasures, and magical items in abundance, overwhelming the senses. Li Mu’s eyes, as deep as autumn water, took in everything before him.

His innate divine power—Recognition of Ten Thousand Spirits—quietly activated, each spiritual and magical item’s attributes, grade, texture, and all properties appeared continuously on a virtual panel. Li Mu quickly glanced through them line by line.

With the help of Recognize Ten Thousand Spirits, the properties of each exotic and spiritual item flowed before his eyes like water.

Passing shop after shop, stall after stall, a gleam occasionally flashed in Li Mu’s eyes, sometimes he hesitated slightly, sometimes paused in thought, as if admiring an art exhibition. If he encountered a good spiritual shop, he would stop for a moment, but seemingly not finding anything to his liking, he never actually stopped to enter a shop.

Wang Wenbao and Xue’Er followed closely behind Li Mu. Xue’Er’s bright large eyes curiously examined everything around, filled with novelty and curiosity. She occasionally pointed, sometimes exclaimed in awe, appearing extremely excited. Whenever she saw some beautiful, exotic spiritual item, she would ask Li Mu about it.

Li Mu smiled slightly, patiently responding, displaying an all-knowing demeanor, which made Xue’Er admire him immensely.

Wang Wenbao followed Li Mu and Xue’Er quietly behind them, seemingly like a steward or follower, unobtrusive, with an expression of well-acquainted indifference.

As the shopkeeper of the Ten Thousand Treasures Pavilion, Wang Wenbao had seen more than enough good things in Wanbao City and wasn’t particularly interested in the spiritual or exotic items here.

Wanbao City, being a prosperous trading hub, gathered innumerable spiritual and exotic treasures. Wang Wenbao knew well that the real精品 and high-tier spiritual items had already been identified and collected by the senior Spirit Appraisers of the Ten Thousand Treasures Pavilion for auction or other sales channels. Although the spiritual and exotic items sold in the Exotic Items Trading Area’s stores had their unique aspects, their overall quality could not compare with the Pavilion’s collections.

”Lord Li, this Spirit Pearl is so beautiful, and its spiritual energy so ample. What kind of spiritual object is it?”

In a large spiritual object store, Xue’Er was instantly drawn to a Spirit Pearl on the main shelf, surrounded by spirit mist and dazzling with colorful lights, and inquisitively asked Li Mu.

Li Mu gently walked over to Xue’Er, his gaze falling on the Spirit Pearl, and responded with a smile, ”This Spirit Pearl is indeed extraordinary, with a thousand years of age. It’s the Spirit Pearl formed by a high-tier Ink Jade Spirit Clam.”

Under his innate divine power—Recognition of Ten Thousand Spirits, Li Mu obtained the attributes of the Five-Colored Spirit Pearl and detailedly introduced it to Xue’Er: ”The Ink Jade Spirit Clam is a giant clam living in the deep sea, usually embodying the water element. However, this spirit pearl contains five-colored spirit charm, each color representing a Five Elements attribute. This indicates that the clam lived in a Five Elements Spirit Vein within the deep sea, and only after a long period of gathering and sedimentation did it form into this current Five Elements union appearance. This pearl is rather rare.”

At this moment, a middle-aged, slightly plump man approached, and after listening to Li Mu’s explanation, a hint of appreciation flashed in his eyes.

The affluent man bowed to Li Mu, highly praising him, ”Senior, what excellent judgment you have. This Five-Colored Spirit Pearl embodies a union of the Five Elements. An average person cannot discern its origin. Should an Artifact Refining Master handle this pearl, it could be refined into a Five Elements Array Hub, Five Elements Protective Artifact, or an auxiliary cultivation artifact, absorbing the Five Elements Spirit Qi from heaven and earth. It’s of great benefit to any cultivator, extremely rare.”

”I am the shop owner, Qu Hai. Senior, if you are interested in this pearl, I can offer you a special price,” the affluent man paused, introduced himself, and extended his offer to Li Mu.

Li Mu smiled slightly and did not respond immediately; this item’s grade was too low, somewhat unsuitable for his use.

Xue’Er listened intently and, learning of the pearl’s Five Elements gathering, her eyes brightened. She tugged on Li Mu’s sleeve and softly said, ”Lord Li, this item is complete with the Five Elements. It perfectly suits you, why not buy it?”

Li Mu pondered slightly. The Spirit Pearl, although not highly useful to him, was better than nothing. In a hundred years, after advancing another realm, this pearl might serve as a good gift for a disciple of the Painting Realm Treasure Mansion.

”I plan to buy this Five-Colored Spirit Pearl. Shop owner, name your price,” Li Mu nodded and smiled toward the shopkeeper, indicating his interest.

Upon hearing this, the shopkeeper’s face showed delight and he quoted a price of three thousand top-grade Spirit Stones.

Li Mu found the price reasonable and, without bargaining, agreed, retrieving the equivalent Spirit Stones from his Storage Bag, completing the purchase.

After acquiring the Five Elements Spirit Pearl, both Li Mu and Xue’Er were quite pleased and continued browsing other items in the spiritual object store. The shopkeeper eagerly recommended other treasures, hoping to facilitate more transactions.

After a careful selection, Li Mu found most of these spiritual items to be low-tier or of no use to him, unable to discover any item worthy of purchase.

”Let’s go! We’ll check out another store,” Li Mu called out to Xue’Er and Wang Wenbao.

With numerous spiritual object stores in Wanbao City, each had its own features and treasures. Since the items in this shop were not to his liking, they simply moved on to another one.
