Chapter 28: Taixu Sword

Next, Song Qingming found two similar shops in the market and sold Liu Tianlong's storage bag and the monster materials he had recently obtained. The storage bag instantly increased by several hundred spirit stones.

Touching the bulging storage bag on his waist, Song Qingming walked contentedly on a street on the west side of Guiyunfang. Seeing that it was getting late, he decided to continue shopping in this market today and buy some elixirs he needed, and leave Guiyunfang early tomorrow morning to return to Qinghe County.

After walking around a few streets in the market, Song Qingming's storage bag was already filled with a lot of elixirs, spirit talismans, and a large amount of talisman paper and other materials needed for talisman making. It was a rare opportunity to come to this large market, so Song Qingming simply bought a lot at once.

When passing by a casual cultivator's stall, he bought a talisman making secret book at a low price after a long time of bargaining. He looked at the hundreds of spirit stones on his body and found that only a small half was left, so he stopped buying them in disappointment.

Unconsciously, Song Qingming walked to a somewhat quiet street. This street was the place with the least business in Guiyunfang. More than half of the dozens of shops along the street had closed their doors. There were very few pedestrians on the street, which was far less prosperous than other streets.

Song Qingming walked along the bluestone street for dozens of feet. When he was about to reach the end of the street, he stopped and prepared to turn back. At this time, an inconspicuous shop beside the street caught his attention.

Song Qingming looked up at the wooden sign on the shop, and saw five black characters "Li's Grocery Store" clearly written on it with a black charcoal pencil.

When he walked into the shop, he found that the owner of the shop was a middle-aged monk, tall and thin, with an elegant appearance, wearing an ordinary green Taoist robe, and it seemed that his cultivation had reached the late stage of Qi Refining.

When the middle-aged monk saw Song Qingming walking into the shop, he did not immediately come forward to greet him, but just squinted his eyes and looked at Song Qingming calmly.

On the counter of the store, there are some common low-level talismans and medicinal materials, as well as a bunch of first-level magic tools that look well-made.

In Song Qingming's opinion, these magic tools should be made by this shop owner. Many casual cultivators who learn skills such as refining tools will choose to open such a small shop in such a market. The cost is not too high, and they can collect raw materials while selling refined finished magic tools. There are also many such casual cultivators in Qinghefang.

After casually looking at the items in the store for a while, Song Qingming went forward and picked up an ordinary high-grade flying sword from the counter and asked:

"Shopkeeper, how many spirit stones does this flying sword cost?"

The middle-aged cultivator looked at Song Qingming with some surprise. Just as he was about to speak, another young man suddenly jumped out from behind the counter and shouted: "Sorry, fellow Taoist, this sword was deposited here by a senior. It cannot be sold to others without his consent. Why don't you look at other magic weapons?"

Song Qingming was stunned when he heard this. This thing was related to the foundation-building cultivator, which made him lose confidence in an instant. He slowly put down the flying sword in his hand and felt sorry for it.

He just entered this store for this thing. This flying sword seemed to have some fate with him. When he saw it on the street just now, he suddenly had the idea of ​​taking it away from here.

Originally, with his fifth-level Qi Refining cultivation and mana, he could only use two magic weapons at most at the same time. Now that he already has the Fiery Sun Sword and the Black Gold Shield, he normally doesn't need to buy any more magic weapons in the short term.

Today, he has been wandering around this market for so long, buying some talismans and elixirs. He didn't want to buy any more magic weapons, but for some reason, he was attracted by this sword as soon as he arrived near this store.

Normally, a cultivator in the middle stage of Qi Refining can't use a top-grade magic weapon. The mana of a cultivator in the middle stage of Qi Refining is limited. Driving a top-grade magic weapon will quickly consume his own mana. Once he can't take down the opponent in a short time, he will be defeated because of the exhaustion of mana, which is not as good as a middle-grade magic weapon.

Only some cultivators with special skills or other reasons whose mana is much stronger than that of cultivators of the same level can drive a top-grade magic weapon to fight the enemy for a long time after offering sacrifices. Most of these cultivators are top-level people in fighting magic. After offering sacrifices and refining top-grade magic weapons, they are even able to cross levels and kill ordinary cultivators in the late stage of Qi Refining.

As for Song Qingming now, he is far from needing to use a top-grade magic weapon. When he saw the top-grade magic weapon in Liu Tianlong's storage bag, he had no intention of refining it himself.

The price of a top-grade magic weapon is much more expensive than that of a medium-grade magic weapon. An ordinary medium-grade flying sword, like the Lieyang Sword in Song Qingming's hand, only costs 20 spirit stones in the clan, and even if it goes to the market, it will not exceed 30 spirit stones at most.

The price of a top-grade flying sword in the market is generally around 100 spirit stones, and the price of a top-grade flying sword can be equivalent to three or four medium-grade magic weapons.

After the young monk took the sword from Song Qingming, he slowly put it into an ancient sword box, and was very careful in the process, for fear of accidentally touching the sword.

The middle-aged Taoist shop owner saw Song Qingming sighing and about to leave the shop, and suddenly said:

"My dear friend, may I ask why you want to buy this sword?"

"I don't know. I saw this sword from afar and felt that it was destined for me."

Song Qingming shook his head and turned around to speak sincerely.

After listening to Song Qingming's words, the shopkeeper paused and smiled, and then said: "Since you are destined to meet, I will make an exception today to be the master of my old friend and sell this sword to you."

"Master, this sword is left here by your friend. How can you sell it to him so easily? Even if you want to sell it, you have to find a suitable person!"

The young monk who had just put the sword into the sword box cherished the sword box and said anxiously to the shopkeeper, as if he should not sell it to Song Qingming, which made Song Qingming feel a little strange.

This young man's cultivation is not high, but the fourth level of Qi Refining. Why does he seem to look down on him? He is too dog-eyed. If it were a few months ago, Song Qingming would naturally have no objection, but now he is not someone who can't afford this little spiritual stone.

"Alas, for those of us who practice Taoism, the most important thing is to find a destiny. Since this item is destined for this little brother, it is naturally the right person. Little brother, take this sword."

The young monk wanted to say something, but was glared back by the shop owner. He could only reluctantly hand the sword box to Song Qingming.

Song Qingming took the sword box and carefully put it into the storage bag. He was a little happy in his heart. He thought he could not get this item, but he did not expect that there would be a sudden turn of events, which made him a little unbelievable.

"Excuse me, senior, what is the name of this sword?"

"The original name of this sword is Taixu. Now that this sword has changed its owner, it depends on your own opinion."

"Taixu, it is indeed a good name. You should still call it this name if you follow me in the future." After getting this sword, Song Qingming felt a little happy in his heart and turned to walk out of the store.

"Hey, wait a minute, little brother."

"Boss, what else?"

"You haven't paid the spirit stones yet?"

"Oh, sorry, how much spirit stones?"

"Little Taoist friend, since we are destined to be together, I won't earn any share of this sword, just give me 150 spirit stones."

"Damn, it's so expensive."

"If you don't have enough spirit stones, forget it, and look at other magic tools!" The young monk saw that Song Qingming thought it was too expensive, and wanted to take back the sword box with joy, but saw Song Qingming directly took out the spirit stones from the storage bag.

It's just 150 spirit stones, take it.

After leaving the Li's grocery store, Song Qingming walked on the road, feeling that he had just been played by the master and apprentice. If it was true, the two of them had really good acting skills, especially the look in the eyes of the young monk, who looked down on him from beginning to end.

Even though he paid a premium of 150 spirit stones to buy this item, the young cultivator still looked reluctant. This level was much better than those cunning and treacherous casual cultivators he saw in Caolu Mountain.

Although he felt that 150 spirit stones were a bit expensive, Song Qingming always had a feeling in his heart that this sword was indeed destined for him.

"Forget it, just think of it as a little extravagance today."
