19: Chapter 19 Magic Power

Yun Ming laughed outright after hearing this.

Not to mention that he was already an Outer Sect Disciple of the Sunset Glow Sect, five hundred Spirit Stones were simply not enough to become an Outer Sect Disciple.

And there was even less need to become a servant; who would care about the life or death of a servant?

Liu Bai, however, was still thumping his chest in assurance: "Fellow Daoist, trust me, I treat everyone fairly. What is your talent like? What is your Realm? If your Realm is high, the price can be cheaper."

Yun Ming raised an eyebrow: "I have the most trashy Five Elements Mixed Spiritual Root, and I am only at Qi Refining Level 4 right now. Do you have a way?"

"Yes~" Liu Bai did not hesitate in the slightest: "I have seen plenty of these fake Spiritual Roots. Being at the Middle Stage of Qi Refining is fine too, but the price will have to go up. Just two thousand Spirit Stones, and I guarantee you will become a Sunset Glow Sect Disciple."

Yun Ming patted his shoulder and said with feigned regret: "Thank you, Brother Liu, for being so concerned about my life. Unfortunately, I cannot come up with that many Spirit Stones. It seems I am fated to suffer this calamity."

Seeing that Yun Ming still had no intention of taking out any Spirit Stones, Liu Bai was very unwilling to give up, so he said again: "Fellow Daoist, wait! How many Spirit Stones do you have? If you can't get into the Sunset Glow Sect, I can also work something out for a Golden Core Sect."

Yun Ming looked at the persistent Liu Bai and sighed, saying: "Sigh, Brother Liu, why must you be so persistent? How about this, aren't you a dealer of information? How about I buy a piece of information from you?"

Upon hearing this, Liu Bai immediately approached Yun Ming with a face full of smiles: "Easy to talk, easy to talk! Everything is negotiable. What kind of information does Fellow Daoist want?"

Yun Ming thought for a moment and said: "I want information on the murderer who wiped out Ye Chen's Family. Do you have it?"

"This…" Several expressions flashed across Liu Bai's face instantly, and finally he sighed: "I really don't have this. Why don't you leave a name or the location of your Immortal Cave, Fellow Daoist? I will contact you once I have news, or we can set a time to meet at the market, how about that?"

"How long until you might have news?"

"Five days, no, three days! Three days will be enough."

"How much will it cost?"

"Since it's the first time doing business with you, Fellow Daoist, one hundred Spirit Stones, how about that?"

"Fifty."

"Ninety!"

"Sixty."

"Eighty-five!"

"Sixty-five."

"Eighty! Fellow Daoist, it cannot go any lower. The one who wiped out a Foundation Establishment Family must at least be a Foundation Establishment Cultivator. How could information on a Foundation Establishment Cultivator only be worth sixty Spirit Stones?"

"Seventy. That is all the Spirit Stones I have on me."

Liu Bai gritted his teeth: "Fine! Seventy it is. Three days from now, let's meet here again."

"Good."

The two agreed to meet again in three days. For this, Yun Ming even paid a deposit of twenty Spirit Stones; Liu Bai was truly afraid that Yun Ming would run away.

The reason Yun Ming bought this information was simple: he was preparing to help Ye Chen.

Consider it an investment, an investment that, in his eyes, was a guaranteed profit with no loss.

After getting rid of Liu Bai, Yun Ming went to buy two Pill Formulas: the Low Grade Blood-Stopping Powder and the High Grade spring return pill.

Blood-Stopping Powder was a medicinal powder for external healing; it was simple to make and inexpensive, making it a favorite among low-level Loose Cultivators, and there was no worry about sales.

The spring return pill was an Advanced version of the Blood-Stopping Powder; it could regulate internal organs and alleviate damage caused by Qi backlash. The price naturally rose accordingly, but Yun Ming intended to use it himself.

The Blood-Stopping Powder Pill Formula was very cheap, only fifty Spirit Stones; the spring return pill Pill Formula was slightly more expensive, coming in at two hundred Spirit Stones.

While buying the Pill Formulas, Yun Ming also bought ten sets of Materials for each.

Finally, Yun Ming prepared to pick out some spiritual talismans.

Arriving at a stall specializing in selling spiritual talismans, the stall owner was a High Grade spiritual talisman master. To be fair, the quality of the talismans was truly excellent.

"How are these spiritual talismans sold?" Yun Ming asked.

"Low Grade are one Spirit Stone each; Medium Grade are three Spirit Stones each; High Grade are five Spirit Stones each."

"What types do you have?"

"Low Grade, attack types: Fireball Talisman, Ice Spike Talisman; defense types: Earth Armor Talisman, Water Curtain Talisman; auxiliary types: Divine Speed Talisman, Light Body Talisman. Medium Grade…"

Following the stall owner's detailed introduction, Yun Ming gained some understanding. He pointed to a few of the talismans and said: "Twenty Low Grade Fireball Talismans, five High Grade Lightning Light Talismans, and also Golden Light Talismans... See how many Spirit Stones that totals."

"One hundred Low Grade, one hundred Spirit Stones; forty Medium Grade, one hundred and twenty Spirit Stones; twenty High Grade, one hundred Spirit Stones; a total of three hundred and twenty Spirit Stones. I will gift you one High Grade Quicksand Talisman."

Yun Ming had almost bought out the entire stall by himself; the stall owner looked at Yun Ming as if he were dearer than his own father.

Seeing that he had bought enough, Yun Ming planned to return home.

However, in a corner that Yun Ming did not notice, two people had targeted him.

"Big brother, let's kill him, I'm hungry."

"Are you stupid? This is Luoxia Market. Wait until he leaves the market to kill him."

"Big brother, when will he leave the market?"

"Are you stupid? He'll definitely leave once he's done buying things."

"Big brother, why is he walking deeper into the market?"

"Are you stupid? He must have gone to buy more good things."

"Big brother, am I really stupid?"

"My good brother, you are the smartest."

"Hmph hmph, I knew it."

Yun Ming had originally planned to leave, but suddenly remembered he still had a enlightenment card. Keeping it was useless, so he might as well go deeper into the market to see if there were any powerful Spells or Divine Abilities.

He searched all the way to the deepest part of the market; there was no road further in, and there were no Cultivation Techniques that caught his eye.

So, Yun Ming planned to return to the Sect and check the Sect's Scripture Pavilion; if the price was a bit expensive, so be it.

Just as Yun Ming was walking out, a dark figure brushed past him.

At the moment of brushing past, the dark figure dropped something in front of him. Yun Ming looked down and saw a book with "Wanling Guixu Scroll" written on it.

When Yun Ming picked it up, the dark figure was already nowhere to be seen, having vanished among the passersby.

After flipping through a few pages casually, Yun Ming was stunned.

It was actually a Demonic Path Cultivation Technique!

And it was a High Grade Tier 4 Demonic Path Cultivation Technique: Swallowing Ten Thousand Spirits to Nourish the Divine Soul.

"Something is wrong, one hundred percent something is wrong." Yun Ming calmly put away this Demonic Path Cultivation Technique, then operated the Fuli Heaven-Concealing Record to ensure no one could detect that he possessed this technique. After making sure everything was foolproof, Yun Ming hurried toward his residence.

However, to his surprise, not long after leaving the market, he was actually targeted.

The Fuli Heaven-Concealing Record would not have any issues, so the other party was not coming for this technique. Thinking of this, Yun Ming breathed a sigh of relief.

However, Yun Ming's Realm was not as high as those two, and he was caught up with after a short while.

"Kid! Stop!"

"My big brother told you to stop! Are you deaf?!"

Blocked by two burly men, Yun Ming's expression turned cold, but he felt that the other party didn't seem very smart.

However, their Realms were genuinely high; both were at Qi Refining Level 8.

"Kid, we two brothers want to borrow some money to spend. We'll pay you back after we rob someone else."

Yun Ming said: "You two have quite the nerve, daring to rob people within the territory of the Sunset Glow Sect."

"Our brothers are united; we fear neither heaven nor earth. We don't even put the Sunset Glow Sect in our eyes. You, a Middle Stage Qi Refining Cultivator, obediently hand over all your Spirit Stones."

"Oh?" Yun Ming operated the Fuli Heaven-Concealing Record, and his Realm began to rise continuously: "Are you sure I am at the Middle Stage of Qi Refining? Take a closer look."

"Hmph, how could we possibly misjudge your Realm, kid…"

"Exactly, my big brother has the best eyes. From one or two hundred li away, my big brother can see at a glance who is a young lady. Isn't that right, big brother? Big brother?" The second brother turned back and discovered that his big brother had already run away in a flash.

Looking at the youth in front of him again, he was actually a Foundation Establishment Cultivator!
