Wizards in the world of cultivation

Chapter 35 Mirage Pearl

The Immortal City of Emptiness.

After several trips, Su You finally brought back all the monster materials stored in the safe house and returned to this prosperous city.

According to the original plan, Su You intended to continue hunting in the Changqi Mountains until he had collected a million spirit stones before returning to Xutian Immortal City to rest.

However, the twin clones discovered some clues about the spiritual orb, so they returned ahead of schedule.

You can earn spirit stones anytime, but you can't be careless at all when it comes to finding spiritual pearls.

During their time in the Void Heaven Immortal City, the twin clones participated in every auction.

After finding nothing, they began searching in various shops that might sell high-level materials, but unfortunately, they still came up empty-handed.

However, he did not give up and continued to search in other shops. Finally, he found some clues in a small weapon-refining shop in the west of the city.

However, to get accurate information from the other party, it is necessary to buy that family heirloom.

The twin clones didn't have enough spirit stones, so Su You needed to come back and sell the monster materials in order to buy the family heirloom.

This time, he had to be careful selling the monster materials, since there were quite a few. Su You was willing to visit several shops and waste some time to ensure that his identity would not be exposed.

Next, Su You kept changing his methods and visited dozens of shops in succession, finally selling all the first and second-tier monster materials.

Each shop only sells a small portion of the demon beast materials, priced at just over 30,000 spirit stones, which is affordable for Su You, who is at the Foundation Establishment stage.

Seeing the storage belt overflowing with spirit stones, Su You smiled with satisfaction. The more spirit stones, the better, of course.

He currently has 720,000 spirit stones in his storage belt, which means he earned a total of 720,000 spirit stones in two and a half months.

This doesn't even include the third-tier demonic beast. If you include it, his current net worth has already exceeded one million, directly reaching his goal.

However, Su You dared not sell the third-tier demonic beast for the time being, since his strength was still too low. At the first level of Foundation Establishment, rashly taking out a third-tier demonic beast would probably attract attention.

Even if one conceals their appearance, they still fear being tracked down by cultivators who possess special secret techniques.

Therefore, the safest course of action is to leave the corpse of this third-tier demon beast intact.

Su You has no shortage of ways to earn spirit stones for the time being, and a third-tier demon beast is only worth a few hundred thousand spirit stones, which will at most make him spend an extra month hunting demon beasts.

There's no need to take risks that could have been avoided.

Moreover, materials from third-tier demonic beasts are hard to find, so keeping them can be used for practice once his cultivation skills improve.

Su You was very interested in the scales on the Black Water Spirit Serpent that could reflect divine sense. If he could use them to make a magic robe, he would be safer traveling through the forest teeming with monsters.

However, he tested it in the temporary safe cave and found that removing the scales alone had no effect. He was unable to make use of this special material for the time being and could only keep it and wait to find a way to use it later.

Unfortunately, the flesh and blood of a third-tier demon beast should be a great tonic for body-refining cultivators, but the Black Water Spirit Serpent contains deadly poison. Not only its flesh, but its blood is also full of toxins.

Without special treatment, Su You will be unable to consume the other party's flesh and blood for the time being.

Now that he had money, Su You took the spirit stones and went back to the weapon-refining shop.

Of course, they disguised themselves as twin clones to go there.

……

Chang Family Weapon Refining Workshop.

As soon as Su You stepped into the weapon-refining workshop, a young man in a blue robe quickly came to greet him. "Senior, you've arrived! Please come in." Chang Lu warmly welcomed Su You's arrival.

After all, he had made a promise with Su You beforehand.

He would tell Su You the origin of his family heirloom pearl if he bought it.

Su You was respectfully invited to the lounge, where he was quickly served spiritual tea.

Su You picked up the spirit tea, took a small sip, and then said seriously, "Alright, take out that family heirloom pearl and take a look. If you're sure it's what I need, I'll buy it."

Fifty thousand spirit stones would have been a considerable sum for him in the past, even his entire fortune, but now it's only a fraction of his wealth, which he can still afford.

However, Su You also needed to confirm whether this treasure was what he was looking for. If not, he wouldn't waste 50,000 spirit stones to buy something that wouldn't be of much use to him.

"Okay, senior, please wait a moment." Chang Lu immediately went to the backyard and soon came back in with a wooden box. He placed it in front of Su You and said respectfully, "Senior, you can take your time to look at it."

After saying that, he stepped aside and waited quietly.

The Foundation Establishment cultivator before him was his last hope. If he could spend 50,000 spirit stones to buy his family heirloom, he was confident that he could help his shop overcome this difficulty.

Su You opened the wooden box, inside which was a light blue bead, the Chang family's heirloom, the Mirage Spirit Bead.

As soon as he opened it, he felt a kind of hallucinatory sensation.

However, under his powerful mental strength, this feeling vanished without a trace in an instant.

Su You slowly reached out and took the bead in his hand.

At this moment, the psychedelic, dreamlike feeling intensified.

"Break it for me!"

With a shout, Su You's illusion vanished without a trace, leaving him with only the smooth, round bead in his hand.

"This is truly amazing. This thing is already equivalent to a powerful illusion-type material." Su You silently sensed it.

When the twin clones first came into contact with this bead, they were stunned and had to rely on the twin marks to quickly break the illusion.

With the Twin Mark present, there are basically no illusions or similar things that could bewitch him.

However, if this pearl could be refined into an illusion-type magical artifact, it would have a good effect on cultivators in the mid-to-late stages of Foundation Establishment.

However, after the illusion was broken, its original strange abilities no longer manifested.

Su You played with the light blue bead in his hand. This was a mid-grade second-tier Mirage Spirit Bead, and he could sense a trace of spirituality contained within it.

Unfortunately, it falls short of the spirituality Su You required. If it were a third-tier Mirage Spirit Pearl, perhaps the spirituality within it would meet his requirements.

Su You had inquired about the specific name of the Mirage Spirit Pearl when he last visited the Chang family's weapon-refining shop.

Furthermore, several shops selling Mirage Spirit Pearls were also found within the Void Heaven Immortal City.

Surprisingly, in their shop, not only were there no second-tier Mirage Spirit Pearls, but even the third-tier ones had no spiritual energy whatsoever.

Therefore, Su You had no choice but to return here. He needed to find out where he could obtain this special Mirage Spirit Pearl.
