346: Buy Shenmi

Wu Ning silently put away the virtual god mirror; it was impossible for him to stay put. He got up and left the restaurant, beginning to wander around the city.

This Divine City was enormous and exceptionally prosperous. Along the main roads, various commercial pavilions and shops could be seen. Aside from the distinct architectural styles and the diverse array of customers, it otherwise seemed not much different from a Human Race city.

Wu Ning collected many High Grade Divine Medicine seeds and some God Race specialties from a large commercial pavilion.

He spent hundreds of millions of Immortal Crystals.

Walking out of the commercial pavilion, he suddenly noticed a rice shop across the street.

This was no ordinary rice shop, but one specializing in various Divine Rices.

Wu Ning walked straight in. The space inside the shop was incredibly vast, likely having undergone spatial expansion and modification by a powerful expert skilled in the Dao of Space, making the interior space appear more than a hundred times larger than it looked from the outside.

However, there were very few customers inside.

The value of these Divine Rices and Immortal Rices was comparable to Heaven And Earth Treasure. Not only did they have excellent taste and flavor, but they also possessed miraculous effects such as strengthening the foundation, cultivating the origin, and increasing cultivation.

They were luxuries that only powerful experts and nobles from major forces were qualified to enjoy; ordinary people simply couldn't afford them.

"Young Master, what kind of rice would you like to buy?"

A silver-haired God Race young girl immediately stepped forward and asked. Before Wu Ning could answer, she enthusiastically and proactively began to introduce:

"We have one thousand eight hundred types of Low Grade Divine Rice, over three hundred types of High Grade Divine Rice, forty-eight types of High Grade Divine Rice, and the seven most precious Emperor Grade Divine Rices!"

"So many types of rice?"

"That's right! Our Ten Thousand Spirits Rice Pavilion is the top-tier rice pavilion in the entire Divine Capital. We have tens of thousands of branches throughout the Divine Kingdom. We have all the good quality rice varieties on the market, and even those that other places don't have!"

The young girl said with a proud tone.

Wu Ning released a wisp of Divine Thought, quickly scanning the interior of the shop.

"Oh?"

Wu Ning looked in surprise at the huge rice trough not far away, containing a Divine Rice emitting a light green glow.

He had just tasted it in the restaurant; a small, palm-sized bowl cost eight hundred Immortal Crystals.

Although a bit expensive, its exotic fragrance was intoxicating, and the taste was also very good. After eating, the flavor lingered in his mouth, penetrating his heart and mind, leaving an endless aftertaste.

As for some special effects, they had no effect on him and were completely ignored.

The silver-haired young girl followed his gaze and immediately introduced:

"Young Master, this is Azure Essence Rice, a High Grade Divine Rice. It contains rich life energy. Long-term consumption can strengthen the foundation, cultivate the origin, repair internal hidden injuries, and also has some effects on preserving youth and beautifying one's appearance. It only costs three thousand two hundred Divine Crystals per jin."

Divine Crystal is the God Race's term for Immortal Crystal.

Wu Ning nodded slightly and walked towards the innermost row of rice troughs in the shop.

In his perception, the energy contained in these rices was the most abundant and of the highest quality, comparable to Emperor Grade Immortal Medicine.

These should be the seven types of Emperor Grade Divine Rice.

Seeing this, the silver-haired young girl's smile immediately became more genuine.

Being able to buy Emperor Grade Divine Rice, this was a big customer!

"Young Master, these are the top-tier Emperor Grade Divine Rices in our shop. This is Divine Origin Rice, which is best for increasing cultivation; eating one meal can at least equal several hundred years of arduous cultivation!"

"This one is Soul Crystal Rice. After consumption, it can enhance Divine Soul power, comparable to top-tier Heaven And Earth Treasure."

"This one is Heavenly Fragrance Divine Rice. Its taste and flavor are absolutely the best among all Divine Rices. It continuously emits a magical exotic fragrance and is often used as a top-grade spice. Long-term consumption will also make one's body emit a unique fragrance and is most popular among women in the Divine Kingdom."

"And this one is Emperor Heart Rice, which has the effect of enhancing Bloodline..."

The young girl introduced them one by one.

Wu Ning felt quite enlightened for a moment. He had already experienced High Grade Divine Rice, and he truly wanted to taste these Emperor Grade Divine Rices.

He then inquired about the prices. Soul Crystal Rice was the most expensive, at eighty-eight million Immortal Crystals per jin!

Next was Divine Origin Rice, at eighty million Immortal Crystals per jin.

Then Heavenly Fragrance Divine Rice, at seventy million Immortal Crystals per jin.

The prices of the other four types were similar, all around fifty million per jin.

Wu Ning glanced at the quantity in the rice troughs; these types of Emperor Grade Divine Rice each had only a little over a thousand jin.

"I'll take all of these Divine Rices. Do you have any other stock here?"

"What, all of them?!"

The silver-haired young girl's eyes widened suddenly, looking at Wu Ning in disbelief.

These were Emperor Grade Divine Rices! Many nobles were stingy even when buying a few jin. To take all of them at once, that would be several hundred billion Divine Crystals!

"What, is that not allowed?"

Wu Ning's expression was calm. A mere few hundred billion Immortal Crystals, how could he, a dignified Heavenly Monarch Great Power, care about that?

"Allowed, yes, it's allowed!"

The silver-haired young girl immediately nodded heavily, her expression becoming respectful. "Sir, please wait a moment, I'll pack them up for you right away."

Seeming to recall Wu Ning's question, she then added: "We do have some other stock of Emperor Grade Divine Rice in our shop, but there's less than a thousand jin left of each. Do you want those too, Sir?"

"Mm."

Wu Ning nodded and said, "And all the other Divine Rices in your shop, from Low Grade to High Grade, including all your stock, please pack those up as well."

For him, the efficacy difference between Low Grade Divine Rice and High Grade Divine Rice was not that significant. More importantly were the taste and flavor, and in that regard, Low Grade Divine Rice wasn't necessarily worse than High Grade Divine Rice.

"Okay, okay, please wait a moment."

The silver-haired young girl quickly left, entering the courtyard behind the rice shop.

She couldn't make decisions for such a large transaction.

After a short while, a white-haired, kind-faced God Race elder appeared before Wu Ning.

"Young Master, all the Divine Rices in our shop are worth a total of one hundred eleven billion two hundred thirty-three million Divine Crystals. Are you sure you want all of them?"

The elder curiously sized up Wu Ning, feeling as if this person had come to their shop to purchase goods in bulk.

Wu Ning waved his hand, directly tossing a spatial ring to him, "These are Divine Crystals, count them yourself."

This elder was a Divine Emperor Realm expert. His Divine Thought probed into the spatial ring, and he finished counting in a moment.

"Please wait a moment, esteemed guest. I will have someone pack the Divine Rices for you right away."

The elder flashed away and reappeared in less than half a quarter of an hour, holding a pile of exquisite, palm-sized jade boxes.

Wu Ning casually picked up the topmost and best-quality one. Opening it, he saw ten compartments inside, each containing a vast space.

Within seven of the compartments, a type of Emperor Grade Divine Rice was stored respectively.

Wu Ning swept his Divine Thought over them and put them away.

He also scanned the other jade boxes with his Divine Thought. Each of these jade boxes had one hundred compartments, with each compartment holding a type of Divine Rice.

From Low Grade Divine Rice to High Grade Divine Rice, there were a total of over two thousand one hundred types.

The quantity of these Divine Rices was very large, with each type having at least tens of thousands of jin, and some even hundreds of thousands of jin.

But all together, they amounted to less than ten billion Immortal Crystals.
