Chapter 164 The Spiritual Stone

As soon as Mo Juren raised his doubts, Shopkeeper He hurriedly said,

"Don't worry, sir. The truth is, a 30% discount on the purchase price is indeed the upper limit of what our store can offer..."

Then he said with a determined look, as if he had made up his mind.

"How about this, the price is still 200 spirit stones per piece. But I can make the decision and give you an additional 'Wanbao Ling' immediately."

"With this identity token, you will be a distinguished guest of this building from now on. You can enjoy an additional 5% discount on all transactions in Wanbao Building."

"I'll wait until next time and continue the transaction for 210 Spiritual Stones. How about that?"

With these benefits, Mo Juren finally smiled and agreed.
"Then let's do as the shopkeeper says and get the spirit stones."

After a while, the shopkeeper sent someone to deliver spirit stones. Two thousand low-grade spirit stones of various colors were placed on the table. Mo Juren was almost blinded by the wealth.

But he still calmed down, casually counted the items to make sure they were correct, and put them away.

Shopkeeper He smiled and handed over a bright yellow jade token with the words "Wanbao" written on it.
"Sir, please keep this 'Wanbao Token'. This token is a symbol of the distinguished status of our Wanbaolou guests. What is your name?"

Mo Juren took the token, and without any hesitation, he opened his Sky Eye Technique and looked at the token again and again, then made up a name at random and said to Shopkeeper He,

"My name is Liu Ming. Shopkeeper, please don't blame me for being suspicious. For such a long-term transaction, what I am most worried about is the safety issue."

"I wonder if your hotel has any security measures for guests like us?"

Shopkeeper He said,

"Master Liu, please rest assured that our Wanbao Tower has branches throughout the Tiannan cultivation world. It is not an exaggeration to say that it is well-known throughout the world."

"Of course, in addition to guaranteeing the reputation of our store, this 'Wanbaoling' can also make our Wanbaolou's distinguished guests feel more at ease."

Mo Juren was surprised.
"Oh? I wonder what this token says?"

Shopkeeper He stroked his beard and smiled.
"Does Mr. Liu know about the secret market in Spirit Beast Mountain?"

Mo Juren said,
"Manager He, there's no need to keep us in suspense. Please tell us everything."

Shopkeeper He laughed and said,

"As you wish. This Spirit Beast Mountain Secret Market is held at irregular intervals every few days. It is jointly organized by the seven major sects and our Wanbao Tower. No one dares to act rashly."

"If Mr. Liu is worried about his whereabouts, he can take our Wanbao Order and leave the market through a special secret passage after the secret market ends. This way, he can avoid being followed by anyone."

Upon hearing this, Mo Juren nodded repeatedly. This was a good way to hide his whereabouts, so he felt relieved.

As he felt that the shopkeeper He had a very good attitude, Mo Juren said to him,

"Since this 'Wanbaoling' can enjoy a discount, we should make the best use of it,"

"It is better to do it now than to wait for a day. I want to know if there are any treasures in your building that are suitable for me to use and can be shown off?"

Shopkeeper He's eyes suddenly lit up and he said with a smile,
"Of course, of course, I wonder what kind of treasure Mr. Liu wants?"

Mo Juren thought for a moment and said,
"Formations, techniques, talismans, and magical instruments are all fine. They must be powerful enough. If they are at the level of those in the counter outside, there is no need to take them out."

"Hahahaha, of course. Please wait a moment, Mr. Liu." Not long after, Shopkeeper He came back with a female monk who was dressed coolly.

A bright-looking female monk walked up to Mo Juren slowly, carrying a slightly larger tray.

Shopkeeper He lifted the lid on the tray and saw several strange golden knives inside. Shopkeeper He stepped forward and introduced them.
"This is a set of magical instruments called the Golden Fly Mother Blade. It was carefully crafted by a second-level refiner with foundation-building skills using second-level spiritual materials. It is extremely sharp."

"The best part is that a cultivator in the Qi Refining Stage can use them freely. Just by holding the main blade, they can control the eight sub-blades, achieving a multitasking effect similar to that of a cultivator in the Foundation Establishment Stage."

"Nine sharp blades, can be used for general attack or sneak attack, it can be said that the enemy is hard to defend. What do you think, Mr. Liu?"

Mo Juren held it for a while and felt that the function of this set of magic tools overlapped with his own Xuan Guang Sword and Red Needle, so he said,

This magical instrument is good, but I already have a magical instrument of similar level, so I don’t really need it.”

Manager He was not angry. He asked the female monk in front of him to leave and called another female monk in from outside the door.

This time, there was a blue-black round pill on the tray. Mo Juren didn't understand what it was, so Shopkeeper He introduced it to him.
"This is a thunderbolt, named 'Heavenly Thunder'. It was created by a Jindan cultivator in the past who deliberately intercepted some of the thunder power between heaven and earth and condensed it."

"Each one of them has great power. If it hits directly, it can kill not only a cultivator in the Foundation Establishment stage, but even a Golden Core cultivator! It can be said to be the ultimate attack."

"But it also has obvious disadvantages. It can only be used once and will explode after use."

When Mo Juren heard that it could surely kill a cultivator in the Foundation Establishment Stage, he immediately became interested and asked,
"If it's true as Shopkeeper He said, then it's quite powerful. But you only have this one, how can I test its authenticity?"

Shopkeeper He was startled and said,

"Customers, please do not be impulsive. Once this thunder explodes, it can raze our Wanbao Building to the ground."

"Of course you can't try this kind of explosive bomb. If you have used other explosive bombs, you will naturally see at a glance that it is extraordinary in power."

Mo Juren wanted to take out his own Thunder Bead from his storage bag to compare with it, but he finally held back. However, he felt that what Manager He said was probably true.

The last thing the female cultivator brought up was a piece of talisman paper, which lay lightly on the tray.

This seemingly ordinary talisman actually has a lifelike golden brick pattern printed on it, slowly flashing golden light.

"A talisman?!" Mo Juren thought to himself, because its appearance was very similar to his own small sword talisman.

As expected, Shopkeeper He introduced:
"This is a rare talisman, made with the power of the golden brick, a golden elixir magic weapon."

"With this talisman, it is possible to kill enemies of higher levels. It is a rare treasure for Qi-refining cultivators!"

Seeing that Mo Juren didn't seem to react much, Shopkeeper He asked,

"What? I think Mr. Liu knows the origin of this 'talisman'? This is the most precious treasure in our Wanbaolou branch."

Mo Juren nodded and said,

"To be honest with you, I don't need these three treasures urgently. But since you have taken them out, please name a price so that I can consult with you and see if I need to buy them."

Shopkeeper He was a little confused as to whether what Mo Juren said was true or not, because he really didn't see any excitement in his eyes, and he hesitated for a moment.
