After a long wait.
The grocery store door opened.
Looking at the seven Foundation Establishment cultivators, Li Daoxuan raised an eyebrow. It seemed that after a few days of fermentation, his shop had become quite famous.
"Boss, do you have any Nourishing Essence Pills for sale today?"
The old ghost asked.
"Naturally, you all came here for these pills, right?"
Li Daoxuan responded.
"That's right. I wonder if your store has enough Nourishing Pills for the few of us to distribute."
The others also awaited Li Daoxuan's reply.
If there aren't enough to go around, then we'll have to rely on our strength.
"It depends on how many you want. If it's just one bottle per person, that's perfect. One bottle costs 150 low-grade spirit stones. Would you like to buy some?"
Such expensive pills are only affordable for Foundation Establishment stage experts. It's rare to sell two or three bottles on a normal day. In recent days, most Qi Refining cultivators could only afford them with their savings.
Now, after several days of ransacking his shop, it would be difficult for a Qi Refining cultivator to produce so many spirit stones all at once.
"I bought it!"
Although expensive, these pills are extremely beneficial to their cultivation; they rarely see pills of this level.
They've finally found one, so let alone 150 spirit stones, they wouldn't hesitate to spend all their savings to buy it; cultivation is everything.
Li Daoxuan took out seven bottles of pills and handed them to each of them. Meimei accepted 1050 spirit stones.
The material cost is only 30 spirit stones. With his fourth-level technique, he can refine two bottles, with a net profit of 270 spirit stones.
The alchemy industry is incredibly profitable!
"Do you need anything else?"
Li Daoxuan said with a smile, "These are all big fish. It would be a pity not to slaughter them."
Upon hearing this, the group looked at the other goods and, to their surprise, found some that they actually needed.
"Boss, how much for this spirit sword?"
"This one is a second-tier mid-grade spirit sword—Crimson Abyss. It is forged from gold-fire stone and has an extremely high affinity for metal and fire attributes. When it attacks an enemy, it will leave behind fire attribute corrosion and metal attribute damage."
The price will be much higher than the Nourishing Spirit Pill. After all, a good weapon can maximize your combat power. If you are interested in buying it, I'll give you a 20% discount, making it 400 low-grade spirit stones.
The man was somewhat tempted. He looked at the low-grade first-tier spirit sword in his hand. It had been with him for so long, but it could no longer keep up with his combat strength.
He would have switched long ago if he could find a better alternative.
So he gritted his teeth and bought the Crimson Abyss.
The others also chose their favorite weapons and bought some second-tier auxiliary talismans as trump cards.
Before leaving, the old ghost suddenly asked, "Boss, I wonder if your shop will sell talismans in the future?"
"A talisman..."
Li Daoxuan was taken aback. As the name suggests, a talisman treasure is a miniature version of a magic weapon sealed inside a talisman.
The owners of these magical treasures were all experts at the Golden Core Realm.
This is also a sign of the Golden Core Realm. A Golden Core cultivator with a magic weapon is at a different level than one without.
This also shows the importance of magical artifacts.
However, the crafting of magical artifacts is not a secret. Once a cultivator reaches the Golden Core realm, they can find materials to craft their own natal magical artifact.
A talisman treasure is a miniature version of a magic weapon, created by a talisman master using special talismans combined with the techniques of crafting magic weapons. Its only drawback is that its power is less than one-tenth of that of a real magic weapon, and it requires the master to inject magic power to activate it.
Even Foundation Establishment cultivators can only activate it two or three times before exhausting their strength.
Unlike other talismans, it only requires a small amount of magical power to activate.
However, once a Foundation Establishment expert possesses a talisman, their combat power will absolutely crush other Foundation Establishment cultivators.
"Maybe in the future, it depends on the master's wishes. I'm just an agent."
Li Daoxuan spoke vaguely and uncertainly.
After being reminded by this person, he also felt it was necessary to get himself a talisman.
He can't create magic weapons; it requires the immense power of a Golden Core cultivator and the refinement of a Golden Core. But he meets all the requirements for talismans.
As I pondered this matter, the day quickly passed.
In the days that followed, he began collecting materials for crafting talismans.
"Since it's all for myself, I can't compromise on my own needs, so I'll go for the highest configuration."
Time flew by, and after two months, my first talisman was finally forged.
"Phew... As expected of a miniature magic weapon, it's really hard to forge... But the finished product is worth the effort I put in."
Li Daoxuan held a golden talisman with a broad smile.
This talisman is both offensive and defensive. Its prototype is the Thousand-Mechanism Umbrella that I encountered in a game in my previous life. It is unpredictable and has a top-tier strength.
"Oh, right, I also refined some by-products. I'll give them to Xueqi to try."
Li Daoxuan stood up and left the forging room.
I saw Lu Xueqi cultivating spirit flowers and herbs in the courtyard.
She has nothing to do on weekdays, so she can only do some trivial things to pass the time.
"Husband, are you done with your work?"
Hearing the noise, Lu Xueqi turned and ran towards Li Daoxuan.
"Well, I've finally finished refining the talisman, but I haven't had a real-world demonstration yet, so I don't know if it meets my expectations."
"Oh, Xueqi, I have a gift for you."
Li Daoxuan said.
"A gift? What gift is my husband going to give me?"
Lu Xueqi was somewhat expectant.
The last gift I received was a storage bracelet on my wrist.
"Heh, this is something that will be very beneficial to you. Come on, let's go inside and take a look."
Li Daoxuan remained calm and composed.
Lu Xueqi nodded innocently, and was thus lured into the bedroom.
Inside the bedroom.
Li Daoxuan took out two pairs of things, one black and one white.
Lu Xueqi had never seen this thing before and didn't know what it was.
"Husband, what is this?"
"This is a wonderful thing. These are socks that I, your husband, specially made for you using ice crystal silk and ink spider silk. Wearing them will not only speed up the recovery of your magic power, but also protect you from some damage."
Li Daoxuan explained in a serious tone.
"Socks? These look so strange, why are they so long?"
Lu Xueqi was puzzled.
"Of course, it provides better defense. If it's as short as traditional socks, how can it block damage?"
Li Daoxuan bluffed.
"Oh, I see!"
Lu Xueqi suddenly realized that this reason was very reasonable!
"Come, my wife, try these on."
Li Daoxuan suppressed the smile on his lips.
"Okay, so you just slip it on like you would with socks?"
“That’s right. Since it’s my wife’s first time wearing it, let me help you.”
Li Daoxuan served in his stead.
In his view, the black coating slowly covered Lu Xueqi's long legs, all the way up to her thighs.
The tight-fitting high-waisted stockings slightly accentuated the fleshy texture.
The contrast between the black of her underwear and the white of her thighs is striking, making it impossible to look away.
Li Daoxuan mentally gave a thumbs up, "Awesome!"
"I can definitely feel the flow of magic power has accelerated a lot."
Lu Xueqi simply shared her feelings.
That's only natural, after all, the materials used to make them are very rare. I, Li Daoxuan, didn't get these two pairs of high-quality stockings just for enjoyment.
"Hmm, it feels good."
Li Daoxuan stroked it and commented.
Lu Xueqi blushed as she was touched, but seeing the other person's serious expression, she assumed he was checking the socks' effectiveness, so she didn't say anything to disturb him.
Thanks to this, Li Daoxuan got to enjoy his hands.
