The old man in a white robe waved his hand at the short shop assistant and asked him to leave. He also stepped into the door and walked quickly to Liu Ming to lead the way.
After passing through a black corridor that was not long, Liu Ming followed the old man in a white robe into a secret room in the mountainside.
What was different from the ordinary cave house's secret room was that this secret room, which was only a hundred meters in size, was surrounded by a thin layer of white mist. It seemed to have the effect of isolating Divine Sense. There was only a stone table and two stone chairs in the middle. Other than that, there was nothing else.
"Please have a seat." The old man in a white robe made a gesture to Liu Ming and said with a smile.
Liu Ming was not polite. He walked to a stone chair in two or three steps, lifted his black robe, and sat on it.
"What items do you want to sell this time?" The old man in a white robe sat on the opposite stone chair, and he said softly with a slightly tentative tone.
When Liu Ming heard this, he shook his sleeves with a blank expression. "Pa pa pa pa" a few crystal clear jade boxes were neatly arranged in a row on the stone table. There were more than a dozen of them, then he said faintly,
"I'm in urgent need of spirit stones recently, so I sold some belongings in exchange for some spirit stones."
The old man in a white robe nodded when he heard the words. He waved one hand, and one of the jade boxes floated up and slowly fell into his hand.
Then he patted the jade box lightly with one hand. The jade box opened with a "whoosh", and a purple light burst out. After spinning in the air, it revealed its true appearance. It was the strange purple blade that Liu Ming got when he killed the long-faced beastkin cultivator in the Thunder Pool Mountain.
"The prototype of the magic weapon is actually forged with a spiritual material like the purple crystal jade!" The old man in a white robe couldn't help but say. There was a hint of joy flashing in his eyes.
Liu Ming was silent, looking at the old man in a white robe calmly.
"If senior wants to sell this spiritual weapon, we are willing to buy it for six million spirit stones. What do you think?" The old man in a white robe asked softly.
"Six million spirit stones, the price is quite fair. But there are still many that I haven't seen yet. It's not too late to see them all. "Liu Ming was not moved at all, and he said blankly.
The old man in a white robe naturally wouldn't be polite. He opened the second jade box. There was a yellow beastkin beastkin cultivator in it, which was also obtained from the long-faced beastkin cultivator.
On the trip to the Thunder Pool Mountain Secret Realm that day, what made Liu Ming quite depressed was that most of the magic weapon prototypes he obtained were offensive spiritual weapons; none of them were defensive. After the Nine Skulls Shield was destroyed, he needed a defensive magic weapon prototype right now. It could also resist a few attacks in a crisis.
At this moment, the white-robed old man's face was filled with shock. A wave of heat flashed through his eyes as he examined the items in the jade boxes without blinking.
"There are actually five magic weapon prototypes, and the others are also superb spirit weapons. Senior, are you a forging master?" After the old man in white robe took a breath, he asked tentatively.
Hearing this, Liu Ming only gave a noncommittal chuckle and did not answer.
Seeing this, the old man immediately understood and coughed dryly. He didn't ask anything more, but his expression was obviously more respectful to Liu Ming.
After more than half an hour, the white-robed old man finally finished looking at the items in the jade boxes and put them back on the stone table.
"I've roughly calculated the value of these more than ten magic treasure prototypes and supreme-grade spiritual weapons is about thirty-eight million spirit stones. What do you think? However, even this shop can't store so many spirit stones at once. It's estimated that we're still short of tens of millions of spirit stones. If you think the price is acceptable, I'm afraid you'll have to wait for a few more hours. I'll send someone to transfer more spirit stones over. "The white-robed old man finally said to Liu Ming.
"There's no hurry. I'm here to buy some items anyway." Liu Ming raised his eyebrows and spoke unhurriedly.
"Oh? What do you want to buy? Just tell me. "The old man in a white robe said with a change of expression.
"Is there a defensive spiritual weapon for sale in the shop? However, don't take it out if it's not a magic treasure prototype or above." Liu Ming's eyes flashed as he asked slowly.
The white-robed old man chuckled and said, "Fellow Daoist, you've come at the right time. A few days ago, my shop just acquired an earth-attribute magic treasure prototype, the 'Thick Earth Shield'. I originally planned to auction it off in two months. If Fellow Daoist needs it, I can let you have it first."
Liu Ming's heart moved when he heard the words, but he nodded calmly.
Seeing this, the old man in a white robe didn't go to other places to get this spiritual weapon. Instead, he took out a green jade box and handed it to Liu Ming.
The shopkeeper actually carried this treasure directly with him, which made Liu Ming show a hint of surprise.
He took the jade box from the old man in a white robe and gently removed the lid of the box. A burst of sand and dust blew in his face, and a yellow light flashed out and floated steadily in the air.
As the yellow light faded, a small yellow shield was revealed.
The surface of the small shield was printed with a lifelike small mountain pattern. The edge was shining in yellow light, giving a heavy and unusual feeling.
"Swoosh"!
Liu Ming pointed with one hand, and a spiral golden sword qi was released instantly, blasting at the small yellow shield.
However, as soon as the sword qi touched the surface of the small shield, the small mountain pattern on the yellow shield flashed in golden light, and a small mountain phantasm came out of the shield. The sword qi hit the small mountain phantasm, and it was reflected back strangely. However, the sword qi seemed to be a little weaker than before. It seemed that this shield could still absorb some of the damage.
Seeing this, Liu Ming was startled. He hurriedly made a sword gesture and released a sword finger again.
"Bang", the 2 sword qi canceled each other out.
Liu Ming knew the power of this sword finger. Without sacrificial refining, this shield could not only absorb some of the damage, but it could also reflect the attack. If it was used cleverly in battle, it could obviously achieve an unexpected effect. As for other uses, he would only know after he personally sacrificial refined it.
"I want this treasure, how much is it?" Liu Ming's expression moved. He waved his hand and put the small shield back into the jade box. He glanced at the old man in a white robe and asked in a deep voice.
"This shield is a rare prototype defensive magic treasure. If you want it, then I'll sell it for 8,000,000 spirit stones. I think you also understand that if this shield is taken to the auction, I'm afraid it will be much more expensive. "The old man in a white robe said in a low voice. There was even a hint of pain in his eyes.
The white-robed old man was indeed a shrewd shopkeeper with many years of experience. The prototype of the magic treasure that Liu Ming had sold earlier was only priced at six million, but this "Thick Earth Shield" was actually priced at eight million Spirit Stones right off the bat.
However, what the old man said was not false. If this shield was taken to the auction, the starting price would probably be more than 5 million, and the final transaction price might be around 10 million.
"Okay, 8 million it is." Liu Ming said casually after thinking about it for a while.
"Mister is really a straightforward person." The old man in a white robe said with a smile.
"Shopkeeper, do you have superb five light liquid for sale here?" Liu Ming's eyes flashed. He seemed to think of something and asked lightly.
"Superb five light liquid? This is also a rare item, but we happen to have it in our shop. It's just that there are not many of them. There are only 2 bottles, 12 million spirit stones for 1 bottle. "The old man in a white robe looked at Liu Ming with a hint of doubt.
This 12 million spirit stones was a bit more expensive than the ten million spirit stones that Liu Ming got at the auction. It was really a bit outrageous.
Although Liu Ming was rich, he was quite distressed when he heard this outrageous price. This old man obviously noticed that Liu Ming was not short of money, so he deliberately raised the price. However, if he really waited until the auction to buy it at a sky-high price, it would inevitably cause unnecessary trouble.
He frowned immediately and pondered for a while.
"If mister really wants it, those 2 bottles of superb five light liquid can be sold to senior for 20 million spirit stones." The old man in a white robe saw the hesitation on Liu Ming's face, and he changed the topic.
"Okay, but I want to inspect the goods first." Liu Ming finally made a decision.
"Of course, there is no problem." The old man readily agreed. Then, with two "pa pa" sounds, he summoned a maid from outside the door and told her to fetch something.
After the time it took to drink a cup of tea, two emerald green bottles were placed on the stone table between the two of them.
Liu Ming didn't hesitate. He took a small bottle into his hand, then he pointed in the air. The bottle cap popped open, and a fragrant and sweet fragrance came to his face.
"Not bad, it really is superb five light liquid."
After Liu Ming said to himself, he released Divine Thought to check.
After a short while, he checked both bottles of superb five light liquid. After confirming that the quality was good, he put them into the Sumeru Ring together with the jade box containing the Thick Earth Shield.
"Do you need anything else? Our shop will definitely satisfy you?" The old man in a white robe made another big deal in the blink of an eye, and his smile was even wider.
"No need." Liu Ming didn't waste any more time and coldly replied.
"Then we only need to pay senior another 10 million spirit stones." After the old man in a white robe calculated, he immediately took out a bag of spirit stones and handed it to Liu Ming, then he quickly kept the jade box on the table.
Liu Ming didn't say much. He scanned the spirit stones in the bag with Divine Thought. After confirming that the number was correct, he put it into the Sumeru Ring, turned around, and left.
He already felt extremely lucky to be able to sell so many magic weapon prototypes at once. Now he accidentally bought the superb five light liquid and Thick Earth Shield. It could be said that the harvest was quite plentiful. Although the price was a bit unreasonable, he didn't mind these millions of spirit stones.
As soon as he left the shop, after Liu Ming confirmed that no one was following him, he turned into a deserted path and disguised into a young scholar. He walked on the street and quickly left the market, heading toward the cave house.
At this time, in the secret room of the secret shop, the old man in a white robe looked at the dozens of jade boxes in his hand blankly, and there were 3 masked men in black clothes standing in front of him.
"You go and check if there is any famous forging master nearby recently. This person should also know alchemy, so it shouldn't be too difficult to find him. However, this person's cultivation is at least at the early stage of Jin Dan. You just need to inquire about it. Don't disturb this person, otherwise he won't be able to return. I will report the rest to the higher-ups. "The old man in a white robe instructed faintly.
As soon as he spoke, 3 black figures flashed out and disappeared from the secret room.
At the same time, Liu Ming had already appeared in the mountains thousands of miles away. Looking at his appearance, he turned into a white-haired old man.
