Shen Luo arrived at the West City first and walked into a shop called Heavenly Craftsmen Pavilion.
There were sabers, swords, and other kinds of weapons on the shelves of this shop. It was a shop that dealt in refining tools.
If one wanted to catch a ghost, one needed to prepare a magic tool that could store ghosts. Otherwise, it would be useless to catch them.
Shen Luo now had some understanding of the various shops in the West City. In terms of refining tools, the biggest shop was the Xuan Yuan Pavilion.
However, the relationship between the Xuan Yuan Pavilion and the Treasure Gathering Hall was not shallow. He didn't want to get involved too much. This Heavenly Craftsmen Pavilion was also a very famous shop in the refining business. He should be able to buy the magic tools he needed.
The interior of the Heavenly Craftsmen Pavilion was very large. The counters and shelves were made of precious red fir wood. Although the magic tools placed on them were shrouded in restrictions, they still transmitted a slight fluctuation of spiritual power.
Shen Luo saw this scene and secretly nodded. He felt that he had found the right place.
"Sir, what kind of magic tools do you want? Everything in this shop is made by a master refiner. The quality is absolutely guaranteed. "A green-clothed attendant greeted.
"Do you have any magic tools that can store ghosts? I only want high-quality goods. You don't have to take out substandard goods. "Shen Luo didn't talk nonsense and directly said.
The green-clothed attendant was startled. He carefully looked at Shen Luo's expression. After confirming that the other party wasn't joking, he knew that he had met a big customer. His face revealed a bright smile and quickly invited him into the inner private room.
Two attendants served spirit tea and many exotic fruits.
Shen Luo could feel that these fruits contained abundant spiritual power. They were obviously spirit fruits. However, he didn't want to eat anything in an unfamiliar place. Naturally, he didn't touch these spirit tea and spirit fruits.
After a while, the door of the private room opened. The green-clothed attendant from before came in with a young girl wearing a green embroidered robe.
"Miss Biao, this is the distinguished guest who wants to buy a magic tool." The green-clothed attendant said respectfully and quickly retreated.
Shen Luo looked up and sized up the person. This young girl in embroidered robes looked to be about eighteen or nineteen years old. Her face was like a peach blossom, and she had bright eyes and white teeth. She was quite beautiful.
However, this woman's expression was cold and indifferent. She casually glanced at Shen Luo, as if she didn't care much.
"You're the one who wants to buy a Dharma artifact that can store ghosts, and you only want high-quality ones? You dare to come to the Heavenly Craft Pavilion and say such words? Your Excellency's tone isn't small. "The embroidered robed girl said coldly.
"I'm just stating my request. If your esteemed pavilion doesn't want to do this business, I'll turn around and leave. The Heavenly Craft Pavilion isn't the only magic tool shop in the West City." Shen Luo also sounded displeased.
The young lady in embroidered robes had an extraordinary status in the Heavenly Craft Pavilion. She was also beautiful, so no one had ever spoken to her in such a manner. Anger surged in her eyes, but she immediately suppressed it.
"Our pavilion naturally has high-quality magic tools for suppressing ghosts. However, each one of them is shockingly expensive. It's not something that can be bought with 20 or 30 pieces of celestial jade." The woman revealed a disdainful smile.
"As long as the item is good, the price isn't a problem." Shen Luo calmly said.
The young lady in embroidered robes heard these words, and looked at Shen Luo with a serious gaze. Then, she slightly rolled her eyes.
"Since Your Excellency says so, then please wait for a moment." The young lady in embroidered robes spoke in a much gentler tone. She then got up and walked out.
However, the woman returned after a short while.
In just a short while, the young lady had changed into a water-green robe. Moreover, a faint fragrance was emitting from her body. It smelled very good.
Shen Luo's eyebrows twitched. He sized up the young lady from head to toe, and his eyes narrowed.
An attendant followed behind the young lady. He held three wooden boxes in his hands, and placed them on the table. After that, he bowed and quickly left.
"I've made Fellow Daoist wait for a long time. I haven't introduced myself. I'm Hua Rui. I've spoken inappropriately just now. I hope Fellow Daoist can forgive me. May I know Fellow Daoist's name?" The young lady sat down on the seat next to Shen Luo. She changed her previous willful and rude appearance, and spoke softly. Her voice was extremely pleasant to listen to.
"I'm a casual cultivator. It's my first time in Chang 'an City. You won't know my name even if I tell you my name. So, it's better not to mention it." Shen Luo said calmly.
"Fellow Daoist, you're right. I've spoken too much. Let's take a look at these magic tools first. The magic tools of my Heavenly Craftsmen Hall are all exquisite." Hua Rui's eyes turned, and she smiled sweetly. Then, she raised her hand and opened the three wooden boxes one by one.
Inside the first wooden box was a black alms bowl. Wisps of strange black fog surrounded the alms bowl. It also emitted a cold aura, which made the temperature of the nearby air drop a little.
Inside the second wooden box was a black straw doll. A small silver needle was inserted into the doll's head, chest, and dantian. It looked somewhat magical.
Inside the last wooden box was a small black bag. It seemed to be made of some kind of python's skin. Many fine scales could be vaguely seen on the surface of the bag.
This bag seemed to be an old item that had been used for a long time. There were traces of wear on the edges of the bag, and there was a silver skull pattern embroidered on the bag.
"Fellow Daoist, please take a look. The first wooden box is the Yin Gathering Alms Bowl. It was made from a large piece of Mysterious Yin Stone. It was refined by a master weapon refiner of our Heavenly Craftsmen Hall for three days and three nights. It contains five layers of restriction. It can capture and suppress all ghosts below the middle stage of Inedia." Hua Rui introduced.
Shen Luo picked up the black alms bowl and used the Nine-by-Nine Treasure Chant to sense it. There were indeed five layers of restriction inside, which was quite magical.
However, the ghosts he was going to catch this time had to be at least at the peak of Inedia. This Yin Gathering Alms Bowl was obviously not enough.
"If Fellow Daoist thinks this alms bowl is not enough, then take a look at this Mourning Grass Doll. This object contains six layers of restriction. It's the limit of a middle-grade magic tool." Hua Rui saw that Shen Luo did not seem to like the Yin Gathering Alms Bowl, so she hurriedly introduced the second black grass doll.
"What cultivation level can this object trap?" Shen Luo took the grass doll and once again used the Nine-by-Nine Treasure Chant to sense it.
"This Mourning Grass Doll has three layers of restriction on its body. Each of the three silver needles also has a layer of restriction. After absorbing the ghost, the needles can seal its acupuncture points. It is enough to imprison a ghost at the late stage of Inedia." Hua Rui said.
"Late stage of Inedia? Still not enough. Do you have any magic tools that can imprison ghosts at the peak of Inedia? "Shen Luo frowned and directly asked.
"Peak of Inedia?" Hua Rui's beautiful eyes moved.
"You don't have any?" Shen Luo's expression slightly darkened.
"Fellow Daoist misunderstood. I was just lamenting that magic tools to suppress ghosts have very high requirements for materials. It's not easy to refine them. Our Heavenly Craftsmen Hall doesn't have many. If Fellow Daoist had come a few days ago, our Heavenly Craftsmen Hall might not have had anything that could meet your requirements. But what a coincidence. Three days ago, our Heavenly Craftsmen Hall purchased this Yin Yang Pouch magic tool from a rogue cultivator. It just so happens to meet Fellow Daoist's needs." Hua Rui smiled and explained, picking up the black pouch from the last wooden box.
"Oh, what's so special about this object? Are you sure it can imprison ghosts at the peak of Inedia? "Shen Luo looked at the black pouch and asked skeptically.
