"Immortal Friend Lou Si, do you know how to get a shop in this city square?" After Mo Wuji understood that the Heaven's Beyond Corridor was a cultivation holyland, he felt an urgent need to establish a foothold here.
After his battle with Yuan Jie, he was increasingly clear that he was too weak.
Lou Si looked at Mo Wuji with a slightly troubled expression. She hesitated for a moment before saying, "It's not that there's no way, it's just that it's very difficult. The first method is to take out an extremely good item and hand it to the shop manager of the Heaven's Beyond City Square. They would be the clearest about which shops are about to expire or which shops are about to be taken back. "
Mo Wuji asked in astonishment, "Could it be that the shops here only have management rights? The rights are still with the shop manager? "
Lou Si shook her head, "No. Once a shop is owned, it would immediately become the owner's personal property. However, if the owner doesn't return to the Heaven's Beyond City Square for three years, then the shop manager would take back your shop and sell it or rent it to someone else. Besides this, there are some people who want to leave the Heaven's Beyond City Square. They would ask the shop manager to sell their shops in advance.
However, I have to remind you that these shop managers are all heartless people. They only recognise benefits. Even if two people were to give them good items at the same time, they would still compare the price and sell the empty shop to the one who offered the higher price. As for the one who offered the lower price, they would not refund the money. The next time a shop is put up for sale, the money you paid previously would be void and you would have to pay them again. "
What a scam. Mo Wuji cursed in his heart. He could only continue asking, "What's the second method?"
"The second method is to take the initiative to contact the owner of the shop when you know that the shop is going to be put up for sale. This method is rather difficult because there are basically no empty shops here. There's another method. That is every time the Cosmos Wall appears, there would be some empty shops appearing in the Heaven's Beyond City Square. It all depends on whether you are able to snatch it or not, "Lou Si explained.
Mo Wuji's interest was immediately piqued. He hurriedly asked, "Why would there be empty shops whenever the Cosmos Wall appears?"
Lou Si sighed, "Because all the cultivation resources here come from the Cosmos Wall. The moment the Cosmos Wall appears, even the shop owners would head to the Cosmos Wall to snatch their items. Many shop owners who tried to snatch things from the Cosmos Wall died in the Cosmos Wall or in the desert wasteland. After they fell, the shop became vacant. As long as you can occupy this shop before the manager of the market arrives, you will have a chance to obtain this shop. "
"Are you not going to take back such a shop manager?"
"They will take it back. You just have to say that the person who died was your friend or fellow disciple. Even though everyone knows you're a fake, no one chased you away because you were the first one to occupy the shop. "
"..." Mo Wuji was completely speechless. It was actually such a world.
"Many thanks for saving me. Unfortunately, I wasn't able to help you. I have to return to the Heaven's Beyond Demon Corridor. Let me give you a piece of advice. Even if you manage to occupy a shop, without a certain level of strength, it would be hard for you to stay in it for long. "Even though Lou Si really wanted to help Mo Wuji, her strength was limited.
Mo Wuji clasped his fists, "Immortal Friend Lou Si, you've already helped me a lot. My name is Mo Wuji."
After a short pause, Mo Wuji continued, "Immortal Friend Lou Si, you don't seem to be from the demon race. Your cultivation technique is also not related to the demon race. Why do you want to stay in the demon race?"
Lou Si sighed, "When I first arrived, there was a human race cultivator who wanted to snatch my things. In the end, I killed him. You should know that after killing a human race cultivator, I can only go to the demon race. Thereafter, I stayed in the demon race region. Every time I fought for resources in the Cosmos Wall, I would have to fight with human race cultivators. I no longer have a path of retreat. Actually, I have always wanted to leave the Heaven's Beyond Corridor. However, leaving this place isn't an easy task. Immortal Friend Mo, thank you once again for saving my life. Goodbye. "
"Wait, I have a storage ring here. I'll give you one." Mo Wuji noticed that Lou Si didn't seem to have a storage ring on her hand.
"There's no need. I still have one hidden. You've already helped me a lot. Also, you can get into a conflict with the stall owner. However, you must not get into a conflict with the shop owner. "With that, Lou Si left the city square swiftly and disappeared into the distance.
Mo Wuji sighed in his heart. He could tell that Lou Si was indeed unable to help him. There was no need to talk about helping him. Even Lou Si herself was constantly on the brink of death. Mo Wuji had a good impression of Lou Si. Even though he didn't know if Lou Si had a storage ring, he was sure that Lou Si left in shame because she couldn't help him after he saved her life.
In reality, Mo Wuji still had something he wanted to ask Lou Si. He wanted to know why there wasn't anyone living in the desert wasteland battlefield. Unfortunately, Lou Si left in a hurry.
Thus, Mo Wuji decided to look for a shop himself. He had quite a number of immortal crystals on him. Even though Lou Si said that it was hard to find a shop in the Heaven's Beyond City Square, he still wanted to ask around. What if he managed to find a shop?
The first shop that Mo Wuji walked into was a shop that bought all sorts of materials. The shop wasn't small and there were many people inside. Even though Mo Wuji guessed that this shop wouldn't be for sale, he still went to ask the shop owner.
When he heard that Mo Wuji was here to buy a shop, the shop owner had a look of disdain. He waved his hand away and couldn't even be bothered to answer Mo Wuji's question.
Mo Wuji didn't mind as he continued to the second shop. Indeed, it was as Lou Si had guessed. Mo Wuji consecutively asked 29 shops. However, not a single shop owner was willing to sit down and talk to Mo Wuji. If he didn't just wave his hand and tell Mo Wuji to scram, then he would speak rudely, telling Mo Wuji to scram.
Even though Mo Wuji was extremely careful, his brazen questioning of shops in the Heaven's Beyond City Square still attracted the attention of the shop managers. Before the two shop managers could stop Mo Wuji, Mo Wuji had already entered the 30th shop.
Mo Wuji also saw the two shop managers. He decided that this would be the last shop he would ask. If he failed to buy this shop, he would go to the Heaven's Beyond City Square's shop management. If he couldn't get a shop from the management, he would go to the desert wasteland battlefield. The desert wasteland battlefield was vast and boundless. At most, he would just dig an immortal cave under the battlefield.
The only thing that worried Mo Wuji was that he didn't ask Lou Si why there was no one living in the desert wasteland battlefield.
The moment he entered this shop, Mo Wuji saw a dazzling array of magic treasures of all sorts. Many of these magic treasures were made from the bones of demonic beasts. Without exception, these magic treasures were all very simple to make. Even Grade 6 immortal equipment could only be made from heaven-defying materials.
These magic treasures were simple to make and their offensive capabilities were average. Moreover, they were unable to display the user's sacred arts.
Mo Wuji didn't even see a single good magic treasure. Mo Wuji didn't need to ask to guess that the magic treasures here were obtained from the battlefield. This was a second-hand shop.
The shop wasn't big. There was only a middle-aged man sitting there in boredom. When he saw Mo Wuji enter, he asked lazily, "What magic treasure do you want?"
Mo Wuji clasped his fists and said, "May I ask if the shop owner is around?"
"That's me. Could it be that you have a big business deal?" When the shop assistant heard Mo Wuji's words, he immediately stood up.
"I would like to ask if there are any nearby shops for sale?" Mo Wuji asked politely.
"You want to buy the shop?" The shop assistant stared at Mo Wuji with wide eyes. After some time, he continued, "How many items can you offer?"
"Are you selling the shop?" Mo Wuji didn't say how many items he was willing to offer. He could see the greed in the shop assistant's eyes.
Mo Wuji could tell that this shop assistant's cultivation should be in the intermediate Immortal King Stage. Moreover, the speed of his cultivation was extremely fast. His dao spirituality wasn't very stable. Mo Wuji suspected that he would be able to teach this fella a lesson when he was in the Great Circle of the Grand Luo Immortal Stage.
"That's right. I do want to sell this shop. However, I want to see what you can offer first." The shop assistant's eyes flickered.
Mo Wuji took out two jade vases and a long jade box. "This is a vase of unique grade Green Bodhi Pills. There are a total of six pills and a vase of Billion Year Immortal Wood Marrow. This box contains a Grade 9 immortal equipment, the Glass Lightning Spear. "
As he was speaking, Mo Wuji specially opened the long jade box. A spear that was overflowing with lightning and dao spirituality lay within.
The Glass Lightning Spear was a spoil of war that Mo Wuji obtained from the Lightning Sect's Qi Junyi. Qi Junyi was an intermediate Immortal Emperor expert of the Lightning Sect. Naturally, his magic treasures wouldn't be bad.
Seeing the items that Mo Wuji took out, this middle-aged man swallowed his saliva. Mo Wuji's price wasn't too low. In fact, it was too high. In reality, the most valuable item in Mo Wuji's eyes was the Billion Year Immortal Wood Marrow. However, in the eyes of this shop assistant, the Billion Year Immortal Wood Marrow was the least valuable.
The most valuable items were Mo Wuji's unique grade Green Bodhi Pills and the Grade 9 Glass Lightning Spear.
In a place like the desert wasteland, every Green Bodhi Pill was equivalent to a life. As for a Grade 9 immortal equipment, it was something that he could only dream of. Even though he had many magic treasures here, most of them were trash.
This shop assistant couldn't help but stretch his hand towards that vase of Green Bodhi Pills.
Mo Wuji didn't wait for the shop assistant's hand to touch the Green Bodhi Pills. With a sweep of his hand, he swept the entire vase of Green Bodhi Pills away. At the same time, he asked indifferently, "Do you want to sell your shop? If you want to sell it, then it's yours. If you don't, then I'm leaving. "
This shop assistant regained his senses. From the start, he had never thought of selling his shop. He only wanted Mo Wuji's items because his magic treasure house's business wasn't doing too well. To suddenly meet a newbie like Mo Wuji, how could he not want to rip him off? It would be weird if a person who came to the Heaven's Beyond City Square wasn't a newbie.
