(Chapter 439 onward: Immortal Emperor breaks through apocalypse in a frozen world)
Li Mu cultivated for tens of thousands of years, finally becoming the number one Immortal Emperor in the Imm...
The disciple in the store looked at Li Mu strangely and said, "This sword costs 5,000 high-grade spirit stones!"
"Hiss~" Li Mu didn't react, but other customers in the store took a deep breath when they heard the price. Is a medium-grade magic weapon so expensive? You know, one medium-grade spirit stone can be exchanged for 100 low-grade spirit stones, and 100 medium-grade spirit stones are equivalent to one high-grade spirit stone, which means that one high-grade spirit stone can be exchanged for 10,000 low-grade spirit stones. This sword actually costs 50 million low-grade spirit stones!
"Haha, fellow seniors and brothers, Grandmaster Zhao Ming is not only a weapon refiner, but also a formation master. He has also set up a magic formation on this sword, which makes it much more powerful. It can have an unexpected effect without the opponent knowing. Therefore, this mid-grade magic sword is a little more expensive than swords of the same level!" The disciple in the store explained to everyone.
Everyone nodded. No wonder this middle-grade magic sword was so expensive. It turned out to be because of the magic array. Then everyone looked at Li Mu jokingly. A young monk who was also dressed as an inner disciple said, "Brother, you look unfamiliar! You are new here! Maybe you just came out of the mountains and have never seen the world? Haha~"
"Haha, 5,000 high-quality spirit stones are indeed a bit expensive!" Li Mu said lightly.
The qualities of weapons are divided into: treasure weapons, magic weapons, spiritual weapons, Taoist weapons, immortal weapons, holy weapons, divine weapons, innate spiritual treasures, Hunyuan spiritual treasures, chaos spiritual treasures, and Hongmeng treasures.
This kind of magic weapon level weapon is useless to him. The swords he used for his parents and others are all above the level of immortal weapons. The main reason is that the lowest-level weapons in his hands are all immortal weapons. Even the sword used by Chen Siqi is a divine weapon. He didn't pay much attention at the time and took it out for Chen Siqi. But since he took it out, it is impossible to take it back. Moreover, Chen Siqi didn't seem to want to return it at that time... However, these weapons were restricted by Li Mu, and the strength they can exert at present is only at the level of treasure weapons. Of course, this is also because Li Mu himself is their master. Otherwise, with Li Mu's level, Chen Siqi's sword cannot be suppressed by his Jindan cultivation.
Therefore, Li Mu felt that these low-level weapons were not as practical as spiritual stones. After all, there were not many spiritual stones in his Qiankun Ring, but they were needed by his parents and others. There were a lot of immortal crystals in his Qiankun Ring, but immortal crystals were not useful for his parents and others at their current level of cultivation, and they could not be absorbed. At least they had to reach the Tribulation Crossing Stage to absorb the immortal energy in the immortal crystals.
Seeing that Li Mu was still pretending to be calm, the inner disciple couldn't help but sigh, patted Li Mu on the shoulder and said: "Junior brother, it's not shameful to not be able to afford it. There's no need to be like this!"
The other customers in the store also shook their heads and did not take Li Mu's words to heart. As young people, it was understandable that they cared about their reputation. Then they went to look at the things they liked. Although the sword was good, it was not something they could afford.
The waiter in the store smiled bitterly, and when he saw someone calling him, he hurried over. He was so patient in explaining to Li Mu because Li Mu was a fellow disciple. If it was someone else, he would not have paid any attention to him.
"Junior brother, I don't think I've ever seen you before. Are you really new? Recently, I haven't heard of any new disciples being promoted to the inner sect, let alone any new disciples being recruited." The inner sect disciple asked after looking at Li Mu carefully.
"I just started yesterday!" Li Mu said truthfully.
"Yesterday? Were you one of the three guys who were so lucky?" the man said somewhat exaggeratedly.
"Haha, that's it!" Li Mu said helplessly.
“Tsk tsk tsk ~ I’m so lucky. By the way, my name is Chen Xian, Erdong Chen, the “Xian” in “immortal”, and I’m a disciple from the second peak of the inner sect.” said the inner sect disciple.
"Good name, my name is Li Mu!" Li Mu responded. He was just looking for someone to learn more about the man named Zhao Ming. Just now he saw that Chen Xian didn't seem surprised by the explanation of the shop assistant, so he concluded that Chen Xian must know something about Zhao Ming.
"That's right. My name used to be Chen Wei. I changed my name myself. I originally wanted to change 'Chen' to 'Cheng' which means success, but my dad wouldn't let me and even beat me up!" Chen Xian said a little depressed.
"Tell me about what happened in that treasure land. I heard that it was once a real immortal cave. What good things are there in it?" Chen Xian asked curiously.
"I only stayed in there for a few days, so I don't know much about it." Li Mu said.
"Oh, I heard there's an unlucky guy who's been in there for ten years. He's at the First Peak. I'll go ask him later!" Chen Xian muttered.
"This sword is really great. I really want to meet the person who forged it!" Li Mu said intentionally or unintentionally as he looked at the mid-grade magic weapon.
"You are the only one who wants to meet Great-grandmaster Zhao Ming? People who entered the inner sect by sheer luck can just enjoy the sect's welfare all their lives. I guess you still have a hope of being promoted to Nascent Soul stage in this lifetime. Do you know what realm Great-grandmaster Zhao Ming is in? He is a Mahayana cultivator. Not to mention Ancient Sword Sect, he is a top existence in the entire small fairy world. You will never be able to reach him in your lifetime. Only disciples like me who entered the inner sect by virtue of our strength still have some hope of looking up to Great-grandmaster Zhao Ming!" Chen Xian said to Li Mu with some contempt.
"Everything depends on human efforts. Do you know any way to see him?" Li Mu said.
"It's very simple. Either you have amazing talent, whether it's cultivation talent or sword-making talent, or you have amazing cultivation, at least to the peak of the distraction stage! Otherwise, you have some good sword-making materials! As long as you have any of these, you will have a chance to meet Uncle Master Zhao Ming!" Chen Xian looked Li Mu up and down, and then said: "Unfortunately, I see that you can't achieve either of them!"
"That's true!" Li Mu did not refute. At least that was his current identity.
"There is another option. That is that you buy this sword and then go to see Uncle Zhao Ming in the name of after-sales service!" Chen Xian said jokingly.
Li Mu smiled bitterly. He was afraid that this approach would not work. Not to mention that spirit stones were much more useful to him than this mid-grade magic weapon. Even if he bought the sword, it would inevitably arouse suspicion. It would be a crime to possess a treasure. With his current status, if he took out so many spirit stones at once, it would definitely attract the covetousness of some people. By then, the young would be taken away by the old, and the supply would be endless. Wouldn't his strength be exposed?
Then Li Mu's mind moved, and he took out a piece of material that could block spiritual consciousness from the underground palace of the First Emperor's Mausoleum, and said: "I really have a piece of material that I don't know what it is made of. I picked it up in the cave."
