Chapter 754: Unexpected Spiritual Seed
There is a grocery store.
Wen Qian opened the store door early in the morning, glanced at it casually, and saw several monks waiting outside the door.
"My fellow Taoists, you came early today."
He greeted with a smile.
There are often several treasures in the grocery store that are in short supply. Once they are put on the shelves, many monks will scramble for them.
Gradually, some monks discovered this pattern of the store. Every morning, when they live nearby or just pass by, they come to the grocery store to see if they will be lucky enough to find some rare treasures.
"Shopkeeper Wen, will there be new treasures today?"
A young monk shouted loudly.
"Of course, I won't let you fellow Taoists down. Twelve new fourth-grade sword talismans have arrived, and they are still the same varieties that appeared before. First come first served."
"In addition, a new fifth-grade treasure is available today. If you fellow Taoists are willing but unable to do so, you can help promote it more."
Wen Qian opened the store door and revealed the many new treasures inside.
More than ten sword talismans were neatly placed on the shelves, each of which contained a powerful sword intent, and could be considered the treasure of the grocery store.
What attracted several cultivators was a green crystal in the middle. The crystal was aura-clear, with a faint blue lightning flashing, which was quite extraordinary at first glance.
"Is this a fifth-grade material? This is the first time I've seen it."
A pretty woman in the middle stage of foundation building asked in confusion.
"This thing is called Thunder Death Crystal, a special crystal that condenses the essence of high-level monsters and pure thunder energy. It can be used to assist in practicing thunder magic and refining high-level thunder magic tools."
"Thunder Death Crystal? I once heard an elder in the clan mention it, saying that it is extremely difficult to obtain. I didn't expect it to be this treasure in front of me."
A tall young man suddenly realized, looking at the uneven Thunder Death Crystal in the cabinet, a hint of fanaticism flashed in his eyes.
"Shopkeeper Wen, how much is this Thunder Death Crystal?"
"Six thousand low-grade spirit stones per pound, sold separately, no bargaining."
Wen Qian said with a smile.
He wanted to sell this Thunder Death Crystal separately, but Lu Xuan was not there, and he had no ability to divide it, so he had to make this decision.
"Six thousand spirit stones per pound? How much can a pound be? Isn't this too expensive?"
The people who entered the store were only foundation-building cultivators. When they heard the price quoted by Wen Qian, they all exclaimed.
In a flash, they came back to their senses. This is a fifth-grade rare material, and it is not surprising that the price is so high.
The few people had to feast their eyes on it. They each picked one or two suitable treasures in the store and left in a hurry.
In this way, the news that a fifth-grade rare Thunder Death Crystal was sold in the grocery store spread like wildfire, attracting the attention of many cultivators.
Soon, several foundation-building perfect cultivators came quickly.
"Fellow Daoist Wen, you are not very kind. Why didn't you inform my old friend when you had a new treasure in the store?"
An old man entered the store first and said loudly.
Although he said that, there was no blame or complaint in his tone, and his attention was completely attracted by the Thunder Death Crystal.
"It is indeed a Thunder Death Crystal, and it is quite large."
"It is said that this treasure will only appear on high-level thunder beasts that are about to die. It is extremely rare. I didn't expect to see one here."
"Fellow Daoist Wen, I missed the fifth-grade Xuan Gang Armor last time. This time, you have to give it to me."
"The cultivation method I practice is just related to it. I have made no progress for many years. With this Thunder Death Crystal, I will definitely be able to break through the bottleneck and go further!"
Several people said to Wen Qian very enthusiastically.
Being surrounded by so many high-level cultivators with cultivation far higher than himself, Wen Qian had long been accustomed to it and smiled helplessly.
"Don't worry, fellow Daoists. There is only one Thunder Death Crystal. We can only use the old method to determine who gets it."
"Draw lots.
For fairness, we have to use spiritual consciousness to explore, and we cannot use pupil skills."
He took out a tightly sealed wooden box.
"Hey, I won! I won!"
An old man who had completed the foundation building shouted in surprise.
"Congratulations, fellow Daoist Zhang!"
The other people congratulated the old man.
"Wait a minute."
Suddenly, a clear voice came to everyone's ears. Before the voice fell, a white light word rushed into the grocery store at lightning speed.
A handsome young man appeared in front of everyone.
The young man had a deep breath and had the cultivation base of the early stage of Jindan.
"I am Ren Dong from Xuanlei Sect. I happened to pass by here. I heard that there is a Thunder Death Crystal for sale here. I wonder if this fellow Daoist can give it to me?"
He asked the old man with a smile.
"Greetings to Senior Ren of Xuan Lei Sect. This piece of Thunder Death Crystal is extremely useful to me. I was lucky to get it. Please forgive me for not having the intention to transfer it."
The old man bowed and saluted, but his tone was very firm.
"Oh? I can't buy it from you at a higher price?"
The handsome young man asked with a smile.
The old man shook his head without hesitation.
Seeing this, the young man's smile faded, and a faint spiritual pressure filled the shop.
Being rejected by a foundation-building cultivator one after another, he couldn't help but feel a little annoyed.
But he also knew that this was the Zhaixing Tower, the headquarters of Tianxing Cave. If there was any noise, it would be difficult to get out safely.
"Are you the owner? Does your store still have the Thunder Death Crystal? I want as many as you can."
He turned to Wen Qian and asked.
Wen Qian replied neither servilely nor arrogantly:
"Replying to the senior, I am only managing this store on behalf of you. The owner is someone else."
"Oh? Who is it?"
"It is the guest of Hailou Chamber of Commerce, Lu Xuan Lu Zhenren."
Wen Qian answered calmly.
"Guest of Hailou Chamber of Commerce?"
Upon hearing this, the handsome young man's momentum immediately weakened a little, and his expression was thoughtful.
The strength of the Hailou Chamber of Commerce in Liyang is second only to the Liyang Dao Sect. Compared with the Xuanlei Sect where he came from, it is much stronger. The owner of this shop is a guest of the Chamber of Commerce, so his status is naturally extremely respected. Even the head of the Xuanlei Sect has to treat him with courtesy, not to mention that he is just an ordinary elder.
"So it's the property of Master Lu Xuan. I was reckless."
"I wonder if Master Lu still has Thunder Death Crystals? This kind of treasure is of great use to me. I am willing to pay any price to exchange it from Master Lu."
His tone unconsciously became a little polite.
"I don't know much about this junior."
Wen Qian recalled the scene when Lu Xuan handed the Thunder Death Crystal to him. Although he roughly guessed that Lu Xuan should still have a lot of it, he didn't dare to make a rash decision.
Suddenly, he had an idea.
"To be honest, Senior Lu is proficient in spiritual plants and particularly likes various high-level rare spiritual seeds. If you have any high-level spiritual seeds, I can contact Master Lu on your behalf."
"High-level spiritual seeds? I do have one, a sixth-grade spiritual seed. Master Lu might be interested."
The handsome young man said slowly.
"I will contact Senior Lu right away, but I can't guarantee that Senior Lu still has the Thunder Death Crystal you need!"
Wen Qian said hurriedly. He knew Lu Xuan's schedule quite well and knew that he would be handling spiritual plant-related chores in the Chamber of Commerce branch building at the moment, so he quickly cast a communication talisman.
