Mo Tiankong was still very unhappy. However, since he got it, he might as well take a look at it. What if it was useful?
Opening the Space Bag, three of the ten slots were taken up. One of them was a storage pouch, the other was Liqun cigarettes, and the last was a lighter. Mo Tiankong felt that he could sell storage pouches again in the future. He didn't need them anyway. However, the Space Bag was quite empty right now, so it didn't matter.
With the increase in the price of the items in the shop, they couldn't always take out a pile of spirit stones for every payment. Basically, large amounts of spirit stones were used to pay with storage pouches. Mo Tiankong directly took the storage pouches, but no one cared. After all, the price of storage pouches was very low.
Taking out the Liqun cigarettes and lighter from the second and third slots, Mo Tiankong immediately looked at them.
Liqun cigarettes: After use, temporarily increase one's cultivation by one rank. There are no side effects. Time limit: fifteen minutes. A pack of twenty cigarettes. Ineffective against Martial Emperors and above.
Lighter: Young man, don't think too much. It's just a normal lighter.
Mo Tiankong wanted to ask the System if it was happy. The effect of Liqun cigarettes was very useful. In fifteen minutes, one's cultivation would increase by one rank, not one rank. To put it bluntly, Mo Tiankong's current cultivation of rank two Wuzong directly increased to rank two Martial King. However, the flaw was that it was ineffective against Martial Emperors and above. It was a bit of a pity.
However, after thinking about it, there were very few Martial Emperors and above. Moreover, the difference in strength was huge. If it could be casually increased to that level, then it would be a god-level consumable. This Liqun cigarettes obviously didn't reach that level, but relatively speaking, it was still extremely heaven-defying.
Moreover, it had no side effects. If he encountered an enemy who was one rank higher than him, even if he couldn't defeat the enemy, he could still choose to fight or run after the effect wore off and there weren't any side effects. If the enemy's injuries were too heavy, he might be able to sneak attack. If not, the enemy would be exhausted and have a chance to escape.
It was a good item, but unfortunately, it was of no use to Mo Tiankong. He was just opening a general store, not going out to fight every day. This consumable was useless to him.
However, after thinking about it for a while, he had an idea. In this situation, he could sell it if he did not use it. However, he still had to think about the price.
After all, this consumable could also be regarded as the best, and it was still very attractive to warriors who needed it. Even if they couldn't use it immediately after buying it, it could also be used as a foundation. After all, it could be regarded as an extremely precious consumable without any side effects.
When the time came, he would see. He would ask the Kuang Tie, Zhang Tiannan, and the others. There should be some who would want to buy it. After all, whether it was the foundation of a family or a mercenary group, if they were unlucky and encountered a high-ranked beast, then it would be useful.
After all, a quarter of an hour was equivalent to fifteen minutes. It was neither long nor short.
If it really didn't work, he could just put it on the shelves to sell. There were many empty shelves anyway, so Mo Tiankong stored it in his spatial backpack.
It was getting late. After storing Auspicious back into the card, Mo Tiankong got up and went upstairs.
Early the next morning, the System rang as usual, waking Mo Tiankong up. Mo Tiankong sleepily stretched and got up. He made noodles for breakfast, but added some seafood. There were two bowls of seafood noodles, one for each of him and Auspicious.
The bowls were relatively big, so both of them finished the soup. It had only been a few days since the sea beast riot. During the battle, there were many unranked beasts that were washed ashore by the huge waves. Many low-ranked martial artists picked up a lot of them when they were cleaning up the battlefield. Now, the most common thing in the market was seafood. Naturally, it was cheaper to buy it in large quantities. Mo Tiankong bought a lot of it, since there was enough space in the freezer.
In addition, Auspicious was a little foodie. Although it was small, it had a big appetite. Every time it ate, it would come over. Over time, Mo Tiankong brought it along with him to eat. As for its cultivation, Mo Tiankong didn't have any money right now.
However, Auspicious had been in the card all this time, so its cultivation had increased by one grade. It really lived up to the System's description of slow. Because of its bloodline, Auspicious's cultivation speed should be very fast. However, because Mo Tiankong didn't provide any spirit stones or beasts, its cultivation speed was increasing at a snail's pace.
After the two finished eating, Mo Tiankong opened the door under the System's prompt. It was business time. As usual, there were many martial artists waiting outside the door. Some of the martial artists who came on Monday were here today.
In the first two days of the week, there would be more martial artists coming to the shop, but in the next few days, there would be fewer people. Mo Tiankong perked up. The shop had a duration of twelve hours, and the shop had started updating at around two in the afternoon yesterday. That meant that the shop would be able to update with new items today.
Mo Tiankong was looking forward to the new items. After all, the store's update time was much longer than the previous time. According to the System, the new items should be better than the previous ones.
After a busy morning, there were fewer martial artists entering the store. Mo Tiankong sat at the cashier's counter and played with Auspicious. Auspicious, who originally wanted to sleep quietly in Mo Tiankong's arms, was no longer sleepy and started to play with Auspicious.
Soon, it was two in the morning. As expected, Mo Tiankong heard the System's prompt.
"Ding! The store's update is complete. The new items have been placed on the store's shelves. Please take a look."
Hearing this, Mo Tiankong walked towards the shelves with Auspicious in his arms. He was curious about the new items.
Mo Tiankong stood up and saw the items on the third shelf from afar. He walked over and saw that there were also three items. After two store updates, he understood the rules of the System. Every time, there would only be three items.
The first item was a glass orb. Mo Tiankong didn't know what it was, so he could only look at the System's introduction.
Inheritance Pearl: Eight Trigrams Saber Technique, an Earth Level Upper Level Martial Technique. It is a saber technique that uses the basic saber techniques as the foundation and combines the characteristics of the Eight Trigrams Palm. When practicing, the saber is long and the body is short, but you can only see the saber moving but not the person moving. Along with the rise and fall of the footwork, the left turn and right turn of the body technique, the saber technique changes into chopping, stabbing, lifting, chopping, wiping, carrying, spreading, pulling, intercepting, and other saber techniques. It is continuous and unceasing, like a swimming dragon or a flying phoenix. Price: 200,000 Spiritual Stones
Usage: Hold the Inheritance Orb and activate your Yuan Qi to inherit the Eight Trigrams Saber Technique. It will be destroyed after three uses.
After seeing the first item, Mo Tiankong was pleasantly surprised. This was the martial technique that he wanted. Although he had a lot of cultivation, he couldn't use it. Previously, he thought that after the store update, there would be a martial technique. His luck was really good. The System actually gave him a martial technique.
Moreover, the System specifically added a method to use it this time. It wasn't there when the store was updated last time. Mo Tiankong had to tell everyone how to use it. Mo Tiankong maliciously guessed that the previous item wasn't that valuable and expensive, so there was no introduction.
After all, when Mo Tiankong drew Lucky, the introduction was very complete. The price of the Inheritance Orb was very high, but the introduction was also very detailed. Mo Tiankong paused for a moment and didn't think too much about it.
His previous idea was to see if there would be a martial technique after the store update. It just so happened that it came. Originally, Mo Tiankong had decided to go to the Bountiful Treasures Pavilion to buy one.
However, when he saw the price, Mo Tiankong was still stunned. 200,000 Spiritual Stones. How many people in Sentry Town could afford it? He could count them with one hand. Although it was cheaper than the market price, it was still a high-grade Spiritual Stone.
After all, it was an Earth Grade High-Grade Martial Skill. Its selling price in the market was several times higher than in the grocery store. Moreover, there was a demand but no supply. Most of them appeared in some auctions. If some big families had them, they would hide them well. A Heaven Grade Martial Skill's value was naturally huge.
Mo Tiankong felt that the System was actually doing charity. All the items in the store seemed to be expensive, but compared to the items on the continent, the effect was very different. Moreover, to be honest, the price was relatively low compared to the items on the continent. Just like the Inheritance Orb of the Eight Trigrams Blade, the System priced it at 500,000 Spiritual Stones. Mo Tiankong felt that it wasn't high.
It was rare in other places, but in the grocery store, one could buy it as long as they had enough Spiritual Stones. However, perhaps it was just as he had guessed before. The manufacturing cost of the System was very low, so it could be priced like this.
However, there was still a flaw. It could only be used three times. After three times, it would automatically self-destruct. However, a martial technique that was close to the Heaven Level was worth the price of 200,000 Spiritual Stones, even if it could only be passed on to three people.
Seeing this, Mo Tiankong had a bold idea. Since it could be used by three people, if one family couldn't afford it, they could buy it from three families. Each family was only 60,000 Spiritual Stones, not 70,000 Spiritual Stones. It was more affordable. He would go back and see how the sales were. If it wasn't good, Mo Tiankong could talk to Zhang Tiannan and Fatty Tang. Maybe they could make a deal. The only people in Sentry Town who could afford it were the four big families and some slightly weaker forces.
After all, if he sold it, he would be able to raise his cultivation by two ranks. Now that he had reached the Martial Grandmaster Realm, he needed more Spirit Stones to raise his cultivation. One rank required ten thousand Spirit Stones. Two hundred thousand Spirit Stones would be twenty thousand Spirit Stones if he split it with the system.
However, forces like the four major families of Sentinel Town could use the Inheritance Orbs as part of their family's foundation after purchasing them. They couldn't afford to buy more, but if they really wanted to buy one Inheritance Orb, they could still afford it. It just depended on whether they could be ruthless enough.
As for Mo Tiankong, he would definitely have to draw a free item for a week to receive the Inheritance Orb. Before, the prices of the items in the store weren't high, so he didn't feel anything. Now, looking at the 200,000 Spiritual Stones Inheritance Orb, he could receive it for free. This store manager's benefit was very good.
Previously, he felt that the System was stingy and mistreating him. He could only receive one item per week. Now, he didn't feel that way, especially after he figured out some of the rules of the System. No matter how much the Spiritual Stones were worth, he could receive one item per week. If he couldn't use it, he could sell it. This was the biggest benefit of running a grocery store.
