Chapter 90: Chapter 80 Foundation Establishment Pill Success 1

What would be the price?

Having anticipated this, Xu Mu felt joyful in his heart, though not overly excited.

Perhaps due to the island’s environment, the maid was dressed lightly, revealing a large area of white skin. This was quite different from the conservative attire in the Tianhe Sect area.

Hearing Xu Mu inquire about the price, the maid maintained her smile.

For a hundred year batch, it’s twelve medium-grade spirit stones. The five hundred year batch requires one top-grade spirit stone! As for the thousand- year batch, our shop is currently out of stock!”

The Dragon Heart Nine Leaves Lingzhi is not just used for crafting Foundation Establishment Pills, it also has other uses. Generally speaking, a hundred-year batch is adequate for crafting Foundation Establishment Pills, but if you want superior quality, a batch aged five hundred years is a must.

“I’ll take two of the hundred-year batch and one of the five hundred-year batch. However, I don’t have any top-grade spirit stones on me. Can I use medium-grade spirit stones instead?”

Usually, such big stores would not bargain.

However, there was a sense of urgency in Xu Mu’s heart. He wanted to secure the ingredients first, so he didn’t want to waste too much time bargaining over a few spirit stones.

Of course, that can be done. However, the price will be slightly higher!

The maid who didn’t expect Xu Mu to be a big spender, although her expression and demeanor didn’t change much, she seemed to have grown more enthusiastic.

This was probably what being earnest looked like!

That’s not a problem! Hand me the ingredients!

This way, please!

The maid enthusiastically led him to the back hall. After serving some tea, she hastily went to fetch the ingredients.

Shortly after, she walked in with a Foundation Establishment Stage cultivator.

These are the Dragon Heart Nine Leaves Lingzhi you asked for. Please check!

The Foundation Establishment cultivator took out two jade boxes from his storage bag and placed them on a nanmu table in front of Xu Mu.

Xu Mu took a look inside the boxes.

In one box was two dark green Lingzhi with leaves curled-up together forming a shape that resembled a heart.

In the other box was a slightly bigger dark red Lingzhi with leaves also curled up. There were tiny branches on its surface that looked like blood vessels.

All three Lingzhi had nine leaves each. The one that was dark red and slightly bigger seemed more impressive.

After confirming that they were correct, Xu Mu gave the spirit stones to the other party, and breathed a sigh of relief.

Now, even if he returned to Liyang City immediately, this trip would still be considered a success.

However, the ingredients for the Foundation Establishment Pill were indeed pretty expensive!

In total, they were almost as expensive as a Tier 6 pill.

Adding up the spirit stones spent on purchasing other ingredients, most of the savings that Xu Mu brought with him had been used up.

I wonder if you accept magic artifacts, robes, and monster beast materials?

He had many items that he had looted from the Luo Family that he couldn’t offload in Liyang City. But here, it didn’t matter.

It was just right to dispose of them and add a bit of savings for himself.

Yes! If you have some, you could show them to me!

The Foundation Establishment cultivator, who was planning to leave, sat back down with a smile.

I forgot to introduce myself. I’m Wen Ruo Yu, the manager of the first floor of this shop!”

You’re too kind, Mr. Wen. My name is Mu Yu!

Xu Mu used a pseudonym since his current appearance was also a camouflage. Once his disguise was lifted, this person would cease to exist.

He took out some of the unused magic artifacts, robes, and a variety of materials from his storage bag and placed them on the table.

When Wen Ruo Yu saw that Xu Mu had tier four monster beast materials among other things, a look of surprise flashed in his eyes, but he didn’t ask any further questions.

After discussing the price, they quickly completed the transaction.

Xu Mu gained three fist-sized, top-grade spirit stones that emitted a faint glow.

When he was leaving, Wen Ruo Yu gave him a token and said that it would provide him convenience at the Star Pavilion branches in various cities.

Without being polite, Xu Mu accepted it. Whether or not he would use it would depend on the circumstances.

After leaving the Star Pavilion, Xu Mu had Su Luan take him to several other shops to sell more unnecessary things in his possession.

After emptying his storage bag, he had gained six top-grade spirit stones and over eighty medium-grade spirit stones.

Xu Mu’s previously depleted savings started looking healthy again.

Senior, this is the place for closed-door cultivation. It is managed by the Four Seas Immortal Palace. Not only is there a formation for constant protection, but it is also rumored to have a Golden Core Stage cultivator stationed here. It should be the safest place outside the City Lord Mansion! The only problem is that the price is a bit high!”

As far as she knew, even the cheapest room here cost ten lower-grade spirit stones per day. The most expensive, it was rumored, cost as much as one top­grade spirit stone per day.

It was terrifying to imagine who could afford to stay here.

Probably only a powerful Golden Core Stage cultivator!

I see!”

Xu Mu nodded, took out two lower-grade spirit stones, and handed them to the girl.

You’ve been a great help today. Consider these two spirit stones as your compensation.”

No, no, I volunteered! There’s no need for spirit stones!

Having said that, Su Luan quickly waved her hands, stepped back, and then turned around to run.

After getting some distance, she turned round, waved, and shouted, “Senior, if you need my assistance next time, you can find me at Tao Guan!”

Alright!

Helplessly, Xu Mu put the spirit stones back and watched as Su Luan ran off. Only then did he turn around to enter the building behind him.

There was a scholarly young man dressed in a light blue robe sitting at the counter.

Hearing the footsteps, the young man put down the book in his hand and looked up.

Sir, are you here to rent a cultivation room?”

Exactly!

Xu Mu nodded.

What kind of room do you offer?

Do you have any specific requirements for the room?” the young man asked indifferently.

It needs to be suitable for pill refining!
