Not only was the shopkeeper stunned, even Lin Qian was stunned. He looked at the shopkeeper and asked, "Why? You don't accept soul crystals?"
"This is a soul crystal?" The shopkeeper looked at the soul crystal in Lin Qian's palm. After a moment of shock, he took it from Lin Qian's hand.
"Such a pure soulgem, this is …" He gasped when he saw what the soulgem was.
At this moment, Lin Qian clearly saw that the shopkeeper's hand was trembling as he held the soul crystal.
After a while, the shopkeeper looked at Lin Qian awkwardly and respectfully, "Dear customer, I'm really sorry. My eyes weren't good and I couldn't see it."
"I just didn't expect a soul crystal to be so flawless and so beautifully cut. At first, I thought it was some soul gem and that you were making fun of me. "
Hearing the shopkeeper's words, Lin Qian was stunned.
Lin Zu, who was at the side, was very curious and asked, "If that's the case, shopkeeper, what do your soul crystals look like?"
"So you're very objective. You're not a local. No wonder." At this point, a smile appeared on the shopkeeper's face. At the same time, a soul crystal appeared in his palm. "Look, this is a commonly used soul crystal here."
At this moment, Lin Qian and the others looked at the shopkeeper's palm.
"Shopkeeper, can I take a look?" At this moment, Zhuge Ming asked curiously.
The shopkeeper nodded and generously handed the soul crystal over. "This isn't worth much. It's just a first-grade soul crystal. Compared to yours, it's nothing."
At this moment, Zhuge Ming took the soul crystal in his hand and carefully examined it.
Lin Qian, who was at the side, seemed to have understood something as he looked at the soul crystal.
The soul crystal that the shopkeeper gave to Zhuge Ming to examine was only the size of a child's fist. It was like a rock and extremely filthy. The soul energy contained within was very thick and there were many impurities.
If he cultivated with the help of Soul Crystals, he would need to remove the impurities from them, which would waste a lot of effort.
On the other hand, the soul crystal that Lin Qian had just taken out was sparkling and translucent, pure white and flawless. It was as beautiful as a gem from a soul ore. The soul qi within it was also pure and flawless. It could be directly absorbed and refined for use. Naturally, it could not be mentioned in the same breath as before.
Seeing the soul crystal in Zhuge Ming's hand, Lin Qian finally understood why the shopkeeper had misjudged him.
Subsequently, when Lin Qian and the others left the shop, they were holding a pile of Foundation Strengthening Pills in their hands.
According to the rules of this ancient city, that Saint Soul Crystal was equivalent to a grade-9 Soul Crystal. It was the best Soul Crystal.
Therefore, buying a bunch of medicinal Dans wasn't a problem.
Goku held a handful of pills in his hand and tossed them into his mouth like peanuts. He chewed on them with relish, munching on them.
Lin Qian also put a medicinal pill into his mouth. When he felt the medicinal pill dissolve in his mouth and turn into pure medicinal energy, his face was filled with astonishment.
Obviously, he didn't expect this medicinal pill to really work.
"Prime Minister?" Lin Qian also looked at Zhuge Ming at this moment.
Zhuge Ming nodded at Lin Qian and cupped his hands together. "Your Majesty, it's indeed effective."
Then, Lin Qian looked in his grandfather's direction again. "How is it? Is it the same?"
After Lin Zu felt for a while, he looked at his grandson and nodded. "Indeed, this medicinal pill is effective. After consuming it, you can feel the medicinal energy within it dissolve."
Following that, the crowd also expressed that the elixir was indeed useful.
"Speaking of which, this medicinal pill is quite delicious. It's much tastier than what you two refined," Sun Wukong said as he threw another medicinal pill into his mouth and looked at the Primordial Lord of Heaven and the Tongtian Sect Leader.
The two of them looked at Sun Wukong angrily. "Since you think it's unpalatable, don't come to our alchemy room and steal from us."
"Steal?" Sun Wukong chuckled and stepped forward to grab their shoulders. "I, Old Sun, took it openly. How can it be considered stealing?"
The Primordial Lord of Heaven and the Tongtian Sect Leader angrily shook off Sun Wukong's hand that was on their shoulders.
Then, Lin Qian and the others walked on the streets of this ancient city and looked around.
When it was close to evening, they rented a mansion in the ancient city and stayed there for one night. The next day, they wandered around the city again.
Everyone's cultivation was terrifying. They could shrink the ground into an inch. With one step, they would travel a long distance. Soon, they had a clear understanding of the structure of the entire ancient city.
However, they couldn't figure out whether this was an Illusory Formation or not.
Taking the medicinal pill and reading the ancient books felt like it was real. There was no sign of an Illusory Formation.
If it was really an Illusory Formation, the medicinal pill wouldn't have any medicinal power. Also, reading the ancient books wouldn't be able to see the contents of the ancient books.
At the very least, through these ancient books, Zhuge Ming learned a lot about the Antiquity Age and the Immemorial Age.
Then, Lin Qian made a decision and said to the others, "Let's leave this city for the time being and explore other places to see if there are other cities."
Zhuge Ming nodded and looked at Lin Qian. "I've also obtained a lot of ancient books. I'll go back and study them."
Then, Lin Qian led Zhuge Ming and the others out of the ancient city.
However, when they left the ancient city and walked to the other side of the city gate, Lin Qian's expression changed slightly and he turned his head around.
"Why didn't I feel this ice-cold feeling when I came out?" Lin Qian was puzzled.
However, Xu Meng suddenly said to Lin Qian, "Your Majesty, there were guards at the entrance of the ancient city, right?"
"What?" Lin Qian was confused when he heard Xu Meng's words. He turned around and looked outside the city gate. Then, his expression changed drastically.
Originally, when they entered the ancient city gate, the city gate was empty. The scenery outside was desolate, and the city was bustling with people.
However, not only were there people coming and going from the city gate, there were also guards stationed outside the city gate.
Lin Qian knew that something was wrong. He quickly walked out of the city gate.
At this moment, the scenery outside the ancient city was completely different. The space tunnel in the distance had disappeared, and there was a huge forest in the distance. The density of the spiritual energy in the forest was shocking.
At the same time, there was a wide plain outside the city. There was even an official road in the middle. It was obvious that it was man-made.
At this moment, Lin Qian turned around and looked at the ancient city again.
However, in his eyes, it was no ancient city. Instead, it was a brand new city. There was no longer any ancient aura on the city walls.
The originally blurry signboard of the city now had three big words on it.
