Several days passed.
Su Mu looked at the Dao Lotus in front of her, the last petal seemingly about to bloom.
But with no progress in sight, Su Mu was extremely frustrated.
Never mind, let's see if we can open it later.
The Dao Lotus has not yet opened its last petal, and Su Mu has no other options.
With his eyes closed, Su Mu returned to Earth.
There was no luggage in the room; Su Mu hadn't brought any luggage with her when she returned.
"You're leaving already?"
Su Mu's parents watched Su Mu come downstairs and asked her a question.
Su Mu nodded upon hearing this, "Yes, I have to go to work now, I can't stay at home anymore."
Don't be fooled by the fact that Su Mu's parents seem a little reluctant to part with him now; in reality, they had already started to dislike him a few days ago.
Su Mu concluded that you can't stay at home for too long; if you stay too long, you'll definitely be disliked.
Hearing Su Mu say this, the two of them were very understanding.
He escorted Su Mu to the door.
"The traditional Chinese medicine I brew at home only needs to be taken once every two weeks."
Su Mu got into the car, and as if remembering something, quickly gave her parents some instructions.
Before Su Mu left, he specially brewed a pot of traditional Chinese medicine, which contained a lot of spirit medicine, so its efficacy was definitely not a problem.
If consumed regularly, it can even have a slight effect on prolonging life.
Let's see if we can get some longevity-enhancing spirit medicine from the Immortal Cultivation Realm.
Thinking of this, Su Mu couldn't help but consider taking advantage of the Immortal Island this time.
According to Ye Weixiao, there seems to be such spirit medicine beneath this immortal island.
Let's go and see before we decide.
Thinking of this, Su Mu said goodbye to his parents and drove away.
After the car reached a secluded spot, Su Mu vanished without a trace on his flying sword.
Two hours later, Su Mu successfully flew back to the Qinling Mountains.
The Spirit of the Dragon Vein was still not there, so Su Mu went straight back to his room.
A moment later, Su Mu opened his eyes and found himself back in the Haotian Realm.
It was time to set off as agreed.
Su Mu packed up and left the cave abode. Since there was still some time before the cave abode's lease expired, Su Mu was too lazy to return the few Spirit Stone.
As agreed, Su Mu arrived at a city near the West Sea.
This was a place Su Mu had taken several Teleportation Array to reach, and it took him most of the day.
"You've come."
Ye Weixiao sat in the market, displaying her wares and calling out her wares.
Suddenly sensing someone approaching, he immediately recognized Su Mu by her aura.
Su Mu sat down next to the other person, still holding the Dao Scripture in her hand, and nodded casually, "Hmm, when do we set off?"
"No rush. I need to buy some things. Once I'm at sea, I'll be more confident. This immortal island has recently revealed some of its aura, and many people have already noticed it. I'm afraid quite a few cultivators will be heading there this time."
Ye Weixiao was wearing a bamboo hat at the moment, so that no one could see the other person's face under the hat.
Su Mu was used to it; there were quite a few people dressed like that in the Immortal Cultivation Realm.
"Do you need me to help you buy it?"
Su Mu continued to stare intently at the Dao Scripture, focusing most of his attention on Dao Scripture, only slightly diverting a bit of his attention to Ye Weixiao.
Ye Weixiao shook her head, indicating that she could handle it.
"Since you're here, could you please look after these things while I go buy some groceries?"
Upon seeing this, Ye Weixiao immediately got up to go and buy some items.
Su Mu frowned. "I have no idea how much your stuff costs."
Ye Weixiao tossed out a Jade Slip, "It lists the price of these items in Spirit Stone, but you can decide for yourself how much to sell them for. A lower price is fine too."
Ye Weixiao didn't care at all, as if she were just selling these things out of pure interest.
It wouldn't matter even if Su Mu sold it off cheaply.
Seeing this, Su Mu was speechless. Did this guy look like he was here to experience what it's like to run a street stall?
Before Su Mu could say anything, Ye Weixiao had already disappeared.
Su Mu didn't say much after seeing this. After glancing at the records on the Jade Slip, he had a general idea of the prices of the items here.
Actually, they're all just miscellaneous things, like pills needed by low-level cultivators, or some Law Treasure.
Ye Weixiao probably felt that these things were in the way of carrying them, and it would be a waste to just throw them away, so she put them out to sell.
Su Mu looked at these miscellaneous items with some curiosity.
However, after looking at them carefully for a while, I lost interest; they weren't anything particularly good.
How much does this Law Treasure cost?
Just as Su Mu picked up the Dao Scripture continue his study, a cultivator walked up to him, seemingly interested in a Law Treasure in front of him.
Su Mu looked over at the sound and saw a stick of incense. This incense had the effect of calming the mind and spirit, and it was somewhat effective for low-level cultivators to light it when breaking through.
One hundred Spirit Stone.
Su Mu replied with a sentence, then looked away.
How much does this cost?
The other party continued to ask.
" The Concentrate Mind Pill contains twelve pills in one bottle, and costs three hundred Spirit Stone per bottle."
Su Mu didn't even look up this time; knowing what the other person was referring to, there was no need to look.
"How about these three items together cost five hundred Spirit Stone?"
Upon hearing this, the cultivator pointed to a hairpin beside him, indicating that he wanted it too.
Su Mu raised an eyebrow upon hearing this. A hairpin?
Su Mu had just seen this hairpin; it was pitch black, and judging from the array carved on it, it was probably just a low-level Law Treasure.
But when this cultivator spoke just now, Su Mu clearly sensed a slightly different fluctuation in his aura.
It seemed that the hairpin had attracted the other person's attention; was it because the hairpin was somewhat different?
Su Mu reached out and took the hairpin in her hand.
The next moment, the opponent's aura noticeably changed again.
Now Su Mu was certain that the hairpin was indeed extraordinary.
"This hairpin is not for sale."
As Su Mu spoke, he put the Law Treasure away, his expression unchanged, and continued reading his Dao Scripture.
The cultivator opposite frowned upon hearing this, but then relaxed, seemingly unconcerned about Su Mu's actions.
"Then these two items will do, for four hundred Spirit Stone."
With that, the other person took out the Spirit Stone, put it down, and turned to leave.
He appeared extremely carefree, as if the hairpin in Su Mu's hand was not something he was interested in.
Su Mu frowned as she watched the other person leave.
Is it just my imagination, or is the other party doing this on purpose?
Su Mu scanned the hairpin with his Divine Sense, but couldn't detect anything different about it.
Never mind, I'll let Ye Weixiao take a look when she gets back.
The other party is, after all, Spirit Transformation Cultivator; surely they could see something's amiss?
But shouldn't the other party have noticed when they took the item out?
Su Mu felt something was off.
