Hearing Li Mu's words, Ding Yi's face was full of contempt.
"You're too naive. Such a small market is just like the vegetable market in Mount Shu. What good things can you find? What good things can you pick up from a pile of rotten radishes and vegetables? Besides, these vendors are as smart as monkeys. If there were really good things, they would have put them away long ago. You wouldn't have the chance to pick them up. Naive and childish! Let me tell you, those who have the same idea as you have all been cheated to death in the end. "
Li Mu said indifferently, "It's good to stroll around and broaden my horizons."
The key to picking up the good things was one's mentality.
One shouldn't have the mentality of eating everything in one bite. Instead, one should pick and choose randomly. It was not impossible to find something that suited one's taste. Don't think that all the good things in the world could be monopolized by you.
For example, if you bought something that was worth 20 cents for 15 cents, in Li Mu's view, it was already equivalent to picking up the good things. If you wanted to buy something that was worth 100 yuan for one cent, although it was also picking up the good things, it was no different from daydreaming if you always held this mentality.
Li Mu was just picking up the good things.
He just needed to stroll around casually. When the time was right, the good things would naturally come.
When the two of them came to the outside of the market, they were stopped by the disciples of the Gold Sun Sect. After being forced to pay the business tax, they were allowed to go in.
"Damn it, the Gold Sun Sect is so poor that it's crazy. We are buyers, not sellers. Why should we pay the business tax?" Ding Yi was extremely dissatisfied. He muttered, feeling that his blood had been sucked out.
Li Mu, however, was very calm. He said, "Haven't you always said that in the universe, the law of the jungle is more obvious? Since you've known it for a long time, you should have been mentally prepared. After all, cultivators are also human beings, and they also have greed. Isn't it normal to be greedy? "
"You're quite open-minded." Ding Yi looked suspicious.
"That's not right."
"Sect Master has always been vengeful. When has he been so easy-going?"
"Something is wrong."
He followed Li Mu and strolled around the market.
There were no fixed shops in this kind of bazaar. They were all mobile stalls, and the movement was quite large. Therefore, the areas were not divided according to what they were selling. It was a mess, like a dilapidated and messy library without any sort of categorization. All kinds of books were piled up in a mess.
Li Mu soon lost interest after looking at several herb stalls.
Although he had never seen some kinds of herbs in the stalls, they did not contain any special Spiritual Qi or medicinal properties. Compared with the immortal medicines and divine herbs he picked in the Everlasting Heaven, they were slightly inferior.
As for whether these herbs had any special effects, he didn't care.
In any case, he didn't need it now.
Li Mu behaved very casually, as if he was really shopping out of boredom.
As for Ding Yi, although he said that he was not interested, his body was still very honest.
As soon as he entered the market, Ding Yi was like a little white rabbit in a carrot garden. After borrowing 10 silver-colored fairy crystals from Li Mu, he began to wander around in front of the stalls.
After a while, Ding Yi shouted like a bumpkin who had never seen the world. Soon, the market was filled with his high-pitched voice, red face, and thick neck, bargaining with others.
Li Mu was really taking a quick look at the flowers.
As Zhang Xuan continued walking, he soon arrived at a stall selling spirit beasts.
The stall owner was a little boy of 14 or 15 years old with black hair and big eyes. His strength was not high, only in the Great Sage Realm. There was a jade pendant around his neck, which was flowing with formation patterns, allowing him to move normally in such an environment.
Li Mu couldn't help but sigh.
The overall strength of the cultivators in the universe was really terrifying. A teenage boy was already in the Great Sage Realm. This was almost unimaginable on the Divine Land and the Bitter Star.
In front of this stall, there were more than a dozen people, and their eyes were focused on a little beast in the little boy's arms.
At first glance, it looked like an otter, but its eyes were much bigger than an otter's. They were so bright that they were like a pair of black gems shining in the sun. Its limbs were thick and strong, and its claws were like those of a cat, which was very cute. Its tail was flat like the rudder of a ship. Its whole body was chubby, but it was very flexible. It squirmed in and out of the little boy's arms. Occasionally, it made a chirping sound and licked the little boy's palms and cheeks, which seemed very intimate.
Li Mu couldn't tell what kind of species this little beast was, but he felt that it was very intelligent.
In front of the little boy, there was a sign, on which was written in the common language of the Brilliance Immortal Star Region — "A spirit beast for a Reset Elixir. No fairy crystals."
This was a barter.
"It's a white-headed tiger cub!" someone said.
Immediately, someone retorted with a sneer, "Don't talk nonsense if you don't know anything. Is your white-headed tiger's tail flat? Let me tell you, this is a mutated Star-pangolin cub. It's amazing. An adult Star-pangolin is a well-known fierce beast in the universe. It ranks among the top ten fierce beasts in the universe. It feeds on star cores and its strength is comparable to that of a General Realm or even a King Realm expert. Tut-tut, I didn't expect to meet one here. "
Hearing that, Li Mu's heart stirred slightly.
"Is there such a powerful creature?"
He was a little interested.
An old Taoist with a white face and a black beard, with plaster on his face, was holding a banner in his hand. On the front side, there were the words "Divine Fortune Teller, Ghost Teller, Divine Fortune Teller, Divine Fortune Teller", and on the back side, there were the words "Show the way, show the door, and tell the secrets of heaven". He sounded very arrogant, but his movements were very casual. Squatting beside the stall, he retorted with a sneer, "Don't talk nonsense, okay? A Star-pangolin is covered with star armor. Have you ever seen a Star-pangolin cub with black fur all over its body? “
"Didn't I say it might be a mutant?" The voice of the person who spoke before was obviously much weaker.
Li Mu couldn't help laughing.
It turned out that this person was also talking nonsense.
"That's right. If it's really a Star-pangolin cub, I'm afraid that the whole Brilliance Immortal Star Region will go crazy for it. The Gold Sun Sect is also in a favorable position. How can they allow this boy in the Great Sage Realm to sell it here?"
"If it's a real Star-pangolin cub, even the experts in the Soldier Realm will fight tooth and nail to get it."
"This is an Astral Origin Beast. It has rough skin and thick flesh. It can be beaten and thrown. Basically, it's just an ornamental pet. It has no combat power. Oh, by the way, the Astral Origin Beast has a developed sense of smell, which can be used for tracking …"
At this point, the old Taoist did not continue.
But everyone also understood what he meant.
Tracking was just a useless function.
In the interstellar space and the galaxy, tracking was generally done with Taoist magic arts and supernatural powers. Tracking by smell, no matter how accurate it was, was useless, because it was impossible to track from one planet to another by relying on smell.
How could smell spread in a vacuum?
The onlookers left in twos and threes.
The stall was about to become deserted.
The boy was a little anxious and hurriedly said loudly, "Flattop is not an ordinary Astral Origin Beast. It is the descendant of the King of Astral Origin Beasts and has the royal bloodline. It's amazing. Not only can it track, but it can also find herbs. Moreover, it can be used as a shield. It can even block a blow from an expert at the peak of the Worm Realm."
The boy was a little incoherent. He loudly talked about the preciousness of the cub in his arms.
Hearing what he said, some people stopped and came back to continue to observe.
"This little guy's Spiritual Qi is pitifully weak. How can it block a blow from an expert in the Worm Realm?" Someone questioned.
The boy said loudly, "If you don't believe me, you can give it a try."
He held the cub in his arms and comforted it intimately. He said something. The cub seemed to be able to understand the boy's words. In the end, it crawled to the ground in front of the stall and curled up into a ball.
There was really a cultivator in the Void-breaking Realm. He directly raised his hand and slashed the little beast with a sword light, smashing it to the ground and almost splitting it into two pieces.
"Chirp, chirp, chirp …" The little beast let out a cry of pain.
But the strange thing was that the moment its body was hit by the sword, it seemed to be boneless plasticine. It seemed to have been split by the sword, but in fact, there was still a thin layer of skin connecting it.
When the sword light dissipated, it returned to its chubby body and had completely removed the sword light. There was no trace left on the ground.
The little beast cried out in pain like a child who had been wronged. It crawled up and rushed into the little boy's arms. It whimpered and rubbed its head against the little boy's palm, whimpering and whimpering.
The little boy comforted it with a distressed look.
There were exclamations around.
No matter what, this little beast could indeed withstand a full blow from an expert in the Void-breaking Realm.
Some of the people who were about to leave also showed interest on their faces.
Li Mu also showed a hint of surprise.
The creation of the universe was really amazing.
The cultivator who had just made a move was definitely in the Void-breaking Realm. But this strange little beast took the blow head-on with its body. Except for the pain, it was unscathed.
Someone began to offer a price.
"I don't have a Reset Elixir. I'll give you a Foundation Elixir. Little guy, you need it for your cultivation. Give this little beast back to me. What do you think?"
"Hehe, how about this? I'll give you a silver-colored fairy crystal. It's enough for you to buy a Reset Elixir."
"If you buy it, you'll have to feed it. That's tantamount to more trouble. Besides, what's the use of blocking a blow from a cultivator in the Worm Realm? It's not an attack from an expert in the Mortal Realm or the Soldier Realm. Hehe, I think it's worth at most 10 copper-colored fairy crystals.
"Let me be fair. The Reset Elixir is a seventh-grade healing medicine. This Astral Origin Beast is not worth the price. Little guy, I have a Heavenly Star Grass here, which can also heal wounds. Its effect is no less than that of the Reset Elixir. I'll reluctantly exchange it with you. You've taken advantage of me. What do you think?"
That was a common bargaining tactic in the market.
"These bastards are really good at bargaining." Ding Yi's voice suddenly rang out behind Li Mu.
