Chapter 97 - Thunder Crystal
Li Mu patted Zhou Xianguan"s shoulder as he took out a crystal bag from his bosom and stuffed it into Zhou Xianguan"s hands. The crystal bag was bulging and inside it were fifty pieces of real crystal."Senior brother Li, what are you doing? You should have already paid for my crystal, how can I take your crystal? This won"t do, absolutely not!"
Zhou Xianguan said as he stuffed the crystal bag back into Li Mu"s hands.Take it, you don"t have to be so formal with me, you"re a good person, and are truly sincere and sincere, this fifty crystal is my reward for you, with the great sect compet.i.tion approaching, you outer sect disciples have to prepare, cultivate well, and fight for a good ranking, you don"t want to stay here in the Gold Jade Sect your whole life, becoming an outer sect disciple and a low level Weapons Craftsman, right?
Li Mu patiently advised as he stuffed the crystal into Zhou Xianguan"s embrace."But even so, I can"t take your crystal. Fifty yuan, this isn"t a small number, how can I be embarra.s.sed?"
Zhou Xianguan said shamelessly. He was a sincere person, and was very old-fashioned in this area.
Li Mu smiled indifferently: "I only give you the crystal because you are my brother, between brothers, you don"t have to mind it so much. Cultivate properly, I believe in you!"
"This... Although I deserve it, but since Senior brother Li has said he sees me as his brother, then I will not refuse, don"t worry Senior brother, no matter what happens in the future, as long as you give an order, I, Zhou Xianguan, will still go forward with my life! "
Zhou Xianguan"s eyes were moist as he finished speaking, and was about to kneel down and kowtow to Li Mu.
"What are you doing!?" Don"t kneel! As a man, you can bow down to the heavens and earth and kneel down, but your family can only bow to your parents and elders, and can only kneel down in grat.i.tude to your masters. I, Li Mu"s brother, will not kneel down easily!Seeing that Zhou Xianguan wanted to kneel down, Li Mu immediately scolded him.
Zhou Xianguan was startled, and nodded his head.
"That"s enough, go back and train. If you have anything you want to ask me, you can come find me. Those who can help will help, but you have to work hard yourself, understand?"
Li Mu patted the dust off of Zhou Xianguan"s body, treating him like a brother and treated his own brother, even though Zhou Xianguan was older than him by a lot."I will. Then, I will take my leave first!"
Zhou Xianguan smiled at Li Mu, and then jogged out of Li Mu"s residence.
"I say, Mu Xiaozi, your method of recruiting people is indeed brilliant.
After Zhou Xianguan left, a teasing voice rang out.It"s not that I want to win people"s hearts, it"s just that he"s a good person, not everyone is as lucky as me to meet you, and I can help him just like that, it"s nothing much, oh right, I"ve already let go of my weapon, the crystal s are also pretty much enough, what do you think I should do next?
"What should I do? The thing you should do the most is to cultivate in seclusion. Although you have broken through to the Innate realm, your realm has yet to be consolidated, and there are still more than two years until the compet.i.tion in Gold Jade Sect. To cultivators, two years is equivalent to the time of a blink of an eye.
Luan Tian suggested.
"The partridge had already reached the ninth stage after I merged with the Darksteel Heavy Gold the size of a pigeon egg, barely enough for me to use. It"s just that I"m not used to using weapons like swords. After all, I don"t specialize in cultivating a sword art."Li Mu said helplessly, these few days he had used his free time to reforge the partridge, and he had even merged the small Darksteel Heavy Gold he had won from Xiao Kuan into it. The partridge was originally already at the top of the eighth stage, but after merging with the Darksteel Heavy Gold, it had directly levelled up to the ninth stage.
"Speaking of Darksteel Heavy Gold, I think you should just follow what I said and forge two hammers. Your current physical strength is around 700,000 to 80,000 pounds, if combined with river crossing step and Heavenly Demon Nine Transformations, it will be enough to increase your strength greatly!" Luan Luan thought for a moment before replying.
"Forging two large hammers is fine, but we only have one Darksteel Heavy Gold. Even if there is one, it is still not enough." Li Mu was in a dilemma.
You just need to go to the Treasure House and find a few types of hard and strong and heavy materials. After fusing them with the Darksteel Heavy Gold, forging two large hammers will not be a problem for you, with your current condition, casting one hammer for 20,000 kilograms should not be a problem. With your current condition, combining the flurry hammer technique and river crossing step is enough to make you look down on ordinary warriors of the same cultivation level.
Li Mu smiled and nodded. After packing up for a while, he headed towards the Treasure House.
Along the way, Li Mu encountered many Gold Jade Sect Disciple s. Right now, his reputation among the low leveled disciples of Gold Jade Sect had long ago become different from before, and a large majority of them recognized him. This was naturally because he was able to forge Common Grade Nine weapons, and he still vaguely remembered that a few days before he began forging, a large number of Gold Jade Sect Disciple s had all come to his residence to watch. It would be difficult for him not to become famous.From the looks of it, under the pressure of the great sect compet.i.tion, many people had already started their closed doors cultivation. They all wanted to achieve good results in the great sect compet.i.tion, because that was a shortcut that would stand out amongst the countless disciples of the Gold Jade Sect.
Treasure House had been to this place more than once, and as he was very familiar with it, he quickly arrived at the grand pavilion and walked in."Oh, isn"t this Martial Nephew Li Mu? Why aren"t you forging troops at your place to earn crystal s and have the time to come to my Treasure House?"
The moment Li Mu walked into the Treasure House, he met an old acquaintance. It was one of the people in charge of the Treasure House, Qing Feng.
"Greetings Elder Qingfeng. From today onwards, this junior will no longer easily forge weapons. Isn"t the great sect compet.i.tion about to arrive? This junior also wants to try his luck, so this junior is preparing to start closed door cultivation."
Li Mu did not dare to slight Qing Feng who was in the Divine Arts realm, and immediately explained."You also want to partic.i.p.ate in the great sect compet.i.tion, hm …" No, you actually broke through to the Innate Realm. No wonder, I wanted to advise you not to waste your time and effort in taking the risk, since you have already broken through to the Innate Realm, then just treat it as me worrying for nothing. Since you intend to go into closed door training, then why are you here in my Treasure House? "
When Qing Feng scanned Li Mu with his Spiritual Sense, he saw that Li Mu had already broken through to the Innate Realm. Although he was shocked, he did not say much."It"s like this, isn"t the great compet.i.tion just around the corner? I wanted to forge a powerful weapon for myself, and I also lacked some materials needed to forge a weapon, so I came to Treasure House to try my luck."
Li Mu originally wanted to look for Qingfeng, so he did not conceal his reason for coming here.
Oh, so it"s like that. Just tell me what materials you need.
Upon hearing that Li Mu was here to buy ingredients, a glint flashed past Qing Feng"s eyes. It was as if he was an old cat meeting a mouse, looking like a cunning merchant.
"I have quite a bit of strength, so I don"t need too many rare materials to forge a pair of heavy hammers. As long as they are heavy enough, I"m sure Elder Qingfeng can recommend a few."
Li Mu rolled his eyes at Qing Feng"s treacherous nature, but he did not reveal it, and said with a faint smile.
"Forging twin hammers, I originally had a piece of Darksteel Heavy Gold, but you came late, and was bought by that brat Xiao Kuan with a huge price. In addition, I also have a mixed element stone and several pieces of Blood G.o.d"s Metal, it should be enough for your forging weapons."
"Primordius Stone and Blood G.o.d"s Steel. These two materials are extremely useful to divine ability experts. They should be worth quite a bit."On the other hand, the Blood G.o.d"s Steel was a blood-red iron essence. Not only was its body tough, it also had the ability to automatically restore the shape of a weapon, which could even be used by divine ability experts in normal times to refine weapons.
"The level of these two materials are not low. We are old acquaintances, I will not lie to you, add on the thousand crystal." Qing Feng said casually."One Thousand Yuan!" I said Elder Qingfeng, are you sure you"re right? One thousand crystal is enough for me to buy a Ninth Grade or higher Common Equipment, maybe with luck, I can buy a semi-spiritual treasure, but you want one thousand crystal for these two materials, I don"t have the money to afford it. "
Li Mu shook his head. Although he really wanted the Primordius Stone and Blood G.o.d"s Steel so much that he could afford the price of a thousand crystal, he wasn"t stupid to such an extent.
Blood G.o.d"s Metal and Primeval Stones, these kinds of rare materials are not easily obtainable. The grade nine common weapons you mentioned are also the same, although the usual price would be between two to three hundred crystal, but what is the current price? With the sect"s great compet.i.tion at hand, how could you possibly buy them at the same price? ""It"s not that I want to raise the price, I said one thousand crystal is because you are my regular customer. Even if it were an average person, I would need one thousand and two hundred crystal."
Hearing his tone, it seemed that he had already given Li Mu enough face. This made Li Mu roll his eyes in his heart, and silently scolded him for being a cunning businessman.
"Mu Xiaozi, buying one mixed element stone and one Blood G.o.d"s Steel with one thousand crystal is indeed not worth it. Ask him if he has any materials like Thunder Crystal, if there are any, think of ways to get them, it will be of great use to you in forging the Twin Hammers." Luan Tian secretly reminded.
"Elder Qingfeng, I am unable to afford this Blood G.o.d"s Metal and Primeval Stones, but you have Thunder Crystal to sell. If you do, I am willing to sell some crystal to buy it."
Li Mu asked according to the meaning of "muddled day"."Thunder Crystal!" "You have such big words, you actually dare to say that you want to buy this material!"
Hearing the words Thunder Crystal, Qing Feng"s expression changed greatly. He looked at Li Mu as if he was looking at a freak.
