Five Flame Stone
Shen Long followed the man in the golden shirt to the seventh floor. The seventh floor was elegantly decorated, with landscape paintings hanging on the walls. A woman in a red dress with striking features sat next to Zhang Qing tea table.
The woman in the red dress was flipping through a thick ledger when she saw Shen Long and the man in the gold shirt. She then closed the ledger.
"Shopkeeper, this senior wishes to purchase some Fifth-Rank Demon Core."
The man in the gold shirt explained.
"I'll entertain this fellow Daoist; you may step aside!"
The woman in the red dress waved her hand, dismissing the man in the gold shirt. Her gaze fell on Shen Long, and she said with a smile, "My name Mu Hongyu. May I ask your name, friend?"
My surname is Shen.
Shen Long gave his surname.
"So it's Fellow Daoist Shen. This is our shop's catalog of Demon Core. Fellow Daoist Shen time choosing."
Mu Hongyu took out a Red-Glowing Dharma Disk and handed it to Shen Long.
Shen Long examined it carefully, a hint of surprise in his eyes.
Most of them are five-element Demon Core, with Fifth-Rank Thunder Demon Core being more expensive.
"Madam Mu, don't you have any Fifth-Rank Wood Demon Crystal Core or fifth-tier Yin Bead?"
Shen Long frowned and asked.
"Both of these items are rare, especially the Fifth-Rank Wood Demon Crystal Core. Alchemist usually use it to set up large formations and cultivate rare spirit medicine."
Mu Hongyu explained with a smile.
Shen Long purchased forty Fifth-Rank Demon Core to feed his Spirit Beast Spirit Bird, Spirit Insect.
"Madam Mu, I don't have that many Spirit Stone on me. How about I offer something as collateral?"
Shen Long asked.
"That depends on what it is. We don't accept ordinary items."
Mu Hongyu smiled slightly.
Shen Long took out a Golden Porcelain Bottle and said, "This is the Essence Blood of a fifth-tier Four-Winged Golden Crow. It is a descendant of the Golden Crow, and there is also its corpse."
Bian Xiao raised a Four-Winged Golden Crow, which was then killed by Shen Long.
"What! The Essence Blood of a fifth-tier Four-Winged Golden Crow? Can I examine it?"
Mu Hongyu was somewhat surprised and said.
Shen Long nodded and handed the Golden Porcelain Bottle to Mu Hongyu.
Mu Hongyu uncorked the bottle, took out a small, shimmering golden mirror, and infused it with her Law Power.
The Golden Small Mirror suddenly shone brightly, emitting a golden glow that enveloped the Golden Porcelain Bottle. A piercing shriek came from the mirror's surface, and various Demon Bird patterns appeared on the screen.
After a while, the mirror image froze, and a Golden Crow could be seen.
"That's right, it is indeed the Essence Blood of a descendant of the Golden Crow! Fellow Daoist Shen, could you please remove the corpse for me to examine?"
Mu Hongyu asked politely.
"There's not enough room here!"
Shen Long asked in confusion, then took out a Cyan Storage Bag and handed it to Mu Hongyu.
Mu Hongyu's body shone with a bright red light, and she stepped into a landscape painting.
"A spatial Spirit Treasure!"
Shen Long asked in surprise.
He obtained many Spirit Treasure in the Lower Realm, but not a single spatial Spirit Treasure. Yet the Thousand Demon Pavilion actually possessed a spatial Spirit Treasure.
A powerful Divine Sense swept over Shen Long, clearly the work of an expert from the Thousand Demon Pavilion.
Not long after, Mu Hongyu stepped out of the landscape painting.
"Fellow Daoist Shen, we will take the corpse and Essence Blood of the Four-Winged Golden Crow, but the number of Demon Core you requested is too many; it's still not enough."
Mu Hongyu said.
"What if we added two bottles of Tier 5 Snow Ganoderma Pill?"
Shen Long took out two Cyan Porcelain Bottle and handed them to Mu Hongyu.
"Snow Ganoderma Pill, Fellow Daoist Shen is Alchemist from the Thousand Spirits Sect?"
Mu Hongyu asked politely.
Shen Long nodded, acknowledging it. He was warning Mu Hongyu not to have any other ideas.
Mu Hongyu checked the pills in the porcelain bottle and, after confirming there were no problems, nodded and said, "No problem, deal."
"Madam Mu, do you have any fifth-tier Demon Beast Essence Blood for sale?"
Shen Long asked.
"Of course, but I wonder which kind of Demon Beast's Essence Blood Fellow Daoist Shen desires?"
Mu Hongyu's tone was warm.
"Fifth Rank Monster Ape; a catalog would be even better."
Shen Long said.
Mu Hongyu took out a Golden Dharma Disk that shimmered with golden light and handed it to Shen Long, saying, "This is a catalog of fifth-tier Demon Beast Essence Blood. Fellow Daoist Shen, please take your time choosing."
Shen Long took the Golden Dharma Disk and examined it carefully, his brows furrowing slightly.
There are many types of Fifth Rank Monster Ape, but they are all ordinary.
"Madam Mu, is there no Essence Blood from Fifth Rank Monster Ape possessing the bloodline of the Mountain Giant Ape?"
Shen Long frowned and said.
"Mountain Giant Ape? Fellow Daoist Shen thinks too highly of us. Perhaps we can see something like that at Auction."
Mu Hongyu smiled wryly.
After chatting for a while, a man in a golden robe came up and handed Shen Long a Golden Storage Bracelet.
Shen Long scanned the contents with his divine sense, confirming that it contained forty fifth-tier demon cores. He nodded in satisfaction, got up, and left.
As soon as they left the Thousand Demon Pavilion, Chen Yue quickly came to greet them.
"Take me to the spirit medicine."
Shen Long gave the order and took out a Mid-Grade Spirit Stone, tossing it to Chen Yue.
"Yes, senior, please follow me."
Chen Yue accepted the Spirit Stone, her smile deepening, and quickly led the way.
An hour later, Shen Long emerged from a magnificent palace, and Chen Yue quickly came to greet him.
"You don't need to follow me anymore. Watch your mouth, or you know what will happen."
Shen Long took out two Mid-Grade Spirit Stone, handed them to Chen Yue, and strode away.
Chen Yue thanked her repeatedly, accepted the Spirit Stone, and left.
Shen Long strolled around the streets, observing the surroundings. As dusk fell, the Marketplace was brightly lit, and the number of pedestrians on the streets increased rather than decreased.
Half an hour later, Shen Long appeared in a vast Bluestone Square. There were many stalls there, displaying all sorts of things, such as pills, spirit medicine, and Monster Beast Material.
Shen Long walked around and looked at the various kinds of things on the stalls. He didn't recognize most of them, and he was dazzled by the sight.
"It's just a Five Flame Stone, your price is way too high!"
"Exactly, the Five-Light Soft Jade is no ordinary material."
"If you don't have it, then get lost. I didn't buy it for you."
······
A heated argument broke out, and many cultivators gathered around.
"Five Flame Stone!"
Shen Long's heart skipped a beat, and he quickly walked over.
He came to a small stall. The stall owner was an Red-Robed Elder with a ruddy complexion. There were many things on the stall, and a five-colored ore caught Shen Long's attention.
The five-colored ore emitted waves of heat, and its surface had some flame-like patterns.
"Don't bother me unless you have Five-Light Soft Jade or something of equivalent value."
The Red-Robed Elder said irritably.
"Fellow Daoist, how about I trade you a piece of ten-thousand-year-old Soul-Nourishing Wood for Five Flame Stone?"
Shen Long transmitted his voice to the Red-Robed Elder and took out a Cyan Storage Bag.
He possesses a Soul-Nourishing Wood that is over ten thousand years old; exchanging a section of that Soul-Nourishing Wood for materials is nothing to him.
The Red-Robed Elder took the Cyan Storage Bag, scanned it with his Divine Sense, and a look of joy appeared in his eyes. He nodded and said, "No problem, deal."
He handed the Five Flame Stone to Shen Long. In his eyes, the Ten-Thousand-Year Soul-Nourishing Wood was far more precious than the Five Flame Stone.
A fragrant breeze wafted by, and a sweet female voice rang out. "Daoist Xu, I have brought what you requested."
A slender Gold-Skirted Girl appeared in front of the stall; judging from her aura, she possessed the cultivation level of the Spirit Transmutation Late-Stage stage.
"I'm sorry, Fairy Chen, the Five Flame Stone has already been given to this fellow Daoist."
The Red-Robed Elder pointed at Shen Long and said.
