Chapter 28 First Time Setting Up a Stall
Spirit Nurturing Pill
Rank: First-Order Low Grade
Properties: Nourishes Spirit and Strengthens Body, Slightly Refines Bloodline
The Spirit Nurturing Pill is refined using Spirit Blood Flower, Marrow Yang Grass, and Horned Dragon Beast essence blood.
When Spirit Beast pets consume it during their infancy, it can enhance their intelligence and purify their Bloodline.
The effect of Heavenly Talent - Identifying Myriad Spirits allowed Li Mu to see the information of the seven Spirit Pills in the Medicinal Pill bottle within a virtual frame.
This bottle of Spirit Nurturing Pill had good effects and was one of the spoils of war from the three Storage Pouches.
Li Mu guessed it came from the Cultivator who raised the giant eagle.
Li Mu waved at the Crimson Wolf he was playing with and called out with a smile, "Crimson Wolf, come here, I have something good for you to eat."
"Woof!" Crimson Wolf barked softly, wagging its small tail and running on its short legs towards its master.
Li Mu smiled and tossed the Spirit Pill to Crimson Wolf.
Crimson Wolf opened its mouth to catch it, and as soon as the Spirit Nurturing Pill entered its stomach, it immediately became excited, its fur bristling, and its small tail wagging even more vigorously.
"I'm going out for a bit.
Guard the house well, and don't let the Cailing Chicken ruin the Spirit Valley," Li Mu patted Crimson Wolf's small head and instructed.
"Woof woof!" Crimson Wolf responded, then trotted off on its short legs to chase away the Cailing Chicken flock.
Li Mu smiled slightly, took out a First-Order High Grade Gold Essence Spirit Sword from his Storage Pouch, and flew towards Qing'an Town on his sword.
Among the Spiritual Artifacts he found and the Spirit Objects in the three Storage Pouches, there were many things Li Mu couldn't use.
He planned to take them to Qing'an Town to sell them.
Additionally, he intended to purchase more supplies to repair the damaged courtyard and build an Artifact Refining Room to refine Spirit Swords himself.
Practicing the Five Elements Sword Formation requires five Spirit Swords of the same Rank but different Five Elements attributes.
Li Mu currently only had one First-Order High Grade Gold Essence Sword, so he needed to refine four more Five Elements Spirit Swords.
The Wind Spirit Grass would not be ready for harvest for another two months.
Next, he would rebuild the courtyard, construct the Artifact Refining Room, and so on, doing some preparatory work.
By the time the Wind Spirit Grass could be harvested, he would be able to improve his Refining Skill, refine Spirit Swords himself, Cultivate the Sword Formation, and enhance the Rank of his Formation and Cultivation Technique.
Li Mu felt that he needed to upgrade more and more Cultivation Techniques.
Five mu of Wind Spirit Grass would definitely not be enough; he needed to Cultivate a few more mu, a dozen Spirit Valley fields.
Once the new Spirit Valley was developed, by then he would have learned Formation and improved its Rank, allowing him to set up Spirit Gathering Arrays himself.
Li Mu pondered as he flew on his sword, and before long, Qing'an Town appeared in his sight.
Li Mu landed his sword at the town entrance, paid a fragmented Spirit Stone as an entry fee to the guards, and entered Qing'an Town.
Li Mu headed straight for the Loose Cultivator market, planning to take a look around first to see if there were any Spirit Objects worth acquiring.
The Qing'an Town Loose Cultivator market was still bustling with activity.
Every day, a large number of Loose Cultivators explored nearby Spirit Mountains and Spirit Valleys, excavated Spirit Ores, captured Yao Beasts, and collected Spirit Medicines.
At the same time, Cultivation Families like the Zhang Family, Wang Family, Zhou Family, and Chen Family had opened shops around the market, selling Spirit Pills and Spiritual Artifacts, and purchasing Spirit Objects at low prices.
Relying on the Qingxuan Sect, a colossal entity, they formed a stable and safe Loose Cultivator market.
"Fifty-year-old Spirit Medicine - Purple Spirit Grass, only 10 lower spirit stones!"
"Freshly baked High Grade Grain Abstinence Pills, only 3 lower spirit stones per bottle."
"Talisman paper sold at cost, 2 fragmented Spirit Stones per sheet."
"Boss, give me three Exorcism Talismans!"
Even before Li Mu entered the Loose Cultivator market, the clamor of hawkers, inquiries, and various other sounds converged and rushed towards him.
Li Mu walked around once but found no bargains to pick up, so he went to the market management office, paid 1 lower Spirit Stone, applied for a stall, and received a free stall cloth and a signboard.
Then, Li Mu found a half-zhang wide empty spot in the market, spread out his stall cloth on the ground, and began setting up his stall.
Li Mu displayed his self-refined First-Order Spirit Talismans, three second-hand First-Order Spirit Swords, auxiliary Spirit Pills, Qi Gathering Pills, Yellow Tooth Pills, and various other miscellaneous Spirit Objects, totaling fifty to sixty items.
Then, he wrote on the signboard: "High Grade Spirit Plant seeds and Artifact Refining Spirit Ores wanted."
As soon as Li Mu's stall was set up, a customer eagerly approached to inquire about prices.
"Boss, how much are your Five Elements Spirit Talismans? Also, how much is this skinning knife?" a middle-aged hunter Cultivator, covered in the scent of blood and carrying a bow and crossbow, asked Li Mu.
"Five Elements Spirit Talismans are 15 lower spirit stones each.
The skinning knife can be yours for 5 lower spirit stones," Li Mu glanced at the hunter Cultivator and replied.
"You buy Spirit Plant seeds and Spirit Ores, right? I have a few here, how do you value them?" The hunter Cultivator's eyes lit up, very satisfied with Li Mu's quote, and he quickly took out a tightly wrapped cloth package and three palm-sized black Ores from his Storage Pouch.
The middle-aged hunter Cultivator opened the cloth package, revealing a pile of colorful Spirit Plant seeds, dozens of them, of eight or nine different types.
Purple Dan Ginseng Spirit Seed

Puling Grass Spirit Seed
Rank: First-Order Spirit Plant
Under the Divine Sense Heavenly Talent - Identifying Myriad Spirits, the information of the entire package of Spirit Seeds was presented to Li Mu's eyes one by one.
There were six types of First-Order Spirit Plant seeds: 'Ice Spirit Grass', 'Black Blood Vine', 'Blood Spirit Mushroom', Overlord Spirit Flower, and so on.
There were four types of Second-Order Spirit Plant seeds: Illusion Essence Grass, Purple Dan Ginseng, Moon Essence Spirit Mushroom, and Puling Grass.
As for the three Spirit Ores, they were Second-Order Meteorite Ore: Xing Yu Stone, accompanied by a bit of Third-Order Spirit Ore: Taiyi Essence Crystal.
Li Mu was already tempted.
If he could extract one or two taels of Taiyi Essence Crystal from the three Xing Yu Stones, it would be a considerable bargain.
"These Spirit Plant seeds, although numerous, not many are valuable.
Only the Purple Dan Ginseng Spirit Seed has some value, estimated at 15 lower spirit stones.
The other three Spirit Ores are Second-Order Xing Yu Stones, weighing about two catties, estimated at 30 lower spirit stones," Li Mu calmly assessed.
Upon hearing this, the middle-aged hunter Cultivator was delighted.
He had never received such a high appraisal when selling goods at other shops.
"Boss, you'll take these items, right!
I'll trade for two Fireball Amulets, one Binding Vine Talisman, and this skinning knife.
How many more lower spirit stones do I owe you?" The middle-aged hunter Cultivator handed the Spirit Seed cloth package and the three Spirit Ores to Li Mu.
"Give me 15 more lower spirit stones," Li Mu took the beast skin bag and said with a smile.
"Alright!" The middle-aged male Cultivator nodded decisively, took out 15 lower spirit stones from his Spirit Stone Pouch, and paid.
Li Mu took the Spirit Stones and handed over the Spirit Talismans and skinning knife the middle-aged male Cultivator wanted.
The transaction was completed, with payment and goods exchanged.
As soon as the middle-aged hunter Cultivator left, another female Cultivator customer eagerly stepped forward and took his place: "Boss, how much are the second-hand Spirit Swords! Also, give me five Five Elements Spirit Talismans."
"Customer, do you have any Spirit Plant seeds or Spirit Ores to sell?" Li Mu asked with a smile.
"Wait a moment, let me check!" The female Cultivator customer gestured, then quickly rummaged through her Storage Pouch.
...
