Chapter 137

"Two spirit stones!" A crisp female voice entered Han Li's ears. Net

Han Li was stunned for a moment, only then discovering that the stall owner who had been looking down at a book was actually a sweet and lovely girl.

"Is there anything missing from this book?" Han Li asked after coming back to his senses.

"No, the thirteen-layer Everlasting Technique incantations, not a single sentence missing." The girl said generously.

Han Li nodded and flipped through a few pages randomly before closing the book.

"Do you accept medicine for exchange?" Han Li asked directly.

"Medicine?" The girl was a bit startled, opening her beautiful eyes wide.

"It depends on what kind of medicine it is? If it's medicine for healing injuries or curing illnesses, it's not very valuable!" The girl gently brushed the messy hair from her forehead.

Hearing the girl say this, Han Li knew that this matter was very promising, so he didn't stand on ceremony and took out a bottle of "Yellow Dragon Pills," placing it in front of the girl.

"Foundation-stabilizing and essence-nourishing type, medicine that can promote magic power!" Han Li was not modest either.

"Foundation-stabilizing and essence-nourishing type?"

The girl, who had always been composed, became a bit nervous. She leaned her body toward Han Li, gently picked up the jade bottle, poured out a pill, and then lowered her head to identify the medicinal properties.

Han Li looked down from above and saw the piece of jade-like neck the girl exposed clearly. Moreover, because the girl was too close to him, a fresh and elegant daughter's body fragrance hit his nose, making Han Li's heart beat faster and his face turn slightly red.

"It really is medicine that can promote magic power!" The girl exclaimed with joy after sniffing for a while.

She raised her head, looked at Han Li with a look of expectation, and said: "Does the benefactor have more of this kind of medicine? If you do, exchange as much as you have, and you can pick anything from my stall. If it really doesn't work, I can also buy it with spirit stones!"

After speaking, the girl grabbed the bottle tightly, staring at Han Li without blinking, fearing to hear a "no" from the other party's mouth.

Seeing the originally gentle and lovely girl suddenly become so nervous, Han Li found it funny. But he couldn't help but secretly think that he had underestimated the value of this kind of medicine, and he would have to be more cautious in the future!

"Don't be anxious, Miss. Let's finish this business in front of us first, and then talk about the next one, okay?" Han Li originally wanted to refuse the other party, but seeing the clear eyes of the other party, he didn't know why he suddenly thought of his little sister at home, softened his heart, and these words blurted out."

"I'm really sorry! I was a bit impolite." The girl seemed to realize her impoliteness and her face turned red.

"This book only needs two pills of this kind." The girl said after her expression calmed down.

Hearing this, Han Li felt that the other party's price was fair, so he agreed and began to scan other items on the stall.

"What is this?"

A gray, inconspicuous small cloth bag caught Han Li's interest. Especially since this bag was tied tightly at the mouth with a thin red silk rope, and it was bulging! Han Li reached out and grabbed it.

"These are seeds of Seven-Star Grass. Seven-Star Grass over ten years old is the best raw material for making talisman paper." The girl explained in a crisp voice.

Han Li's heart stirred; this item could be very useful, so he put the bag in front of him without hesitation.

"Other things are of no use to me?" After scanning the items again, Han Li said slowly.

"Are you really not going to pick more? This Cold Ice Talisman is very powerful, and there's this Rejuvenation Talisman, which can greatly restore your physical strength..." The girl was a bit unwilling and took the initiative to step forward to recommend them to Han Li.

Seeing the girl's naive look of "you don't know a good thing," Han Li couldn't help but laugh.

"What's so funny?" The girl blushed again.

"I was actually just looking to buy some cinnabar and a brush for drawing talismans, but unfortunately you don't have them here!" Han Li still said the truth for once.

"Cinnabar and a talisman-drawing brush, huh!" The girl frowned and hesitated.

She pondered for a moment, as if she had made a great determination, and suddenly raised her head to say to Han Li:

"I don't have cinnabar, but I have a high-quality talisman brush made from the neck fur of a second-tier spirit beast, the Golden-Eyed Ape. It's just that its price is very high; I don't know if you have enough pills to exchange for it?"

Han Li was surprised, but still smiled and said: "As long as the item is good, I will satisfy you with the pills?"

Hearing this, the girl felt relieved.

She took out a spirit talisman, made a few gestures in the air with her hand, and threw the talisman into the air, turning it into a streak of fire and disappearing.

"Please wait a moment, Benefactor, my brother will bring the item in a while!" The girl felt a bit embarrassed.

"No problem, as long as it's truly a good item, I don't mind waiting a while longer!" Han Li said frankly.

After this, Han Li and the girl had nothing to say for a period of time, which made the two feel quite ambiguous.

Han Li was actually a bit addicted to this strange feeling, smelling the faint daughter's fragrance between breaths, which made his heart beat faster. The girl lowered her head, looking at her toes, not knowing what she was thinking, but Han Li also saw a slight blush rising on her fair neck.

"Sister!" A loud voice suddenly broke this subtle atmosphere, making Han Li want to glare fiercely at the other party. But after Han Li turned around and saw the person clearly, he was startled.

A giant man with a physique not inferior to Qu Hun was rushing toward this side, bumping into some cultivators along the way, making them stumble. Those cultivators were originally furious, but after seeing the giant man's physique that far exceeded ordinary people, they all showed expressions of horror, hesitated for a moment, and had to swallow their anger.

Seeing her brother's actions, the girl felt a headache. This brother of hers was too reckless; wasn't this causing grudges with other cultivators for no reason?

"Here, sister! I brought the item." The giant man carried a gust of wind, rushed to Han Li's side, stretched out a large hand like a palm-leaf fan, and handed a slender wooden box to the girl.

The girl couldn't care about blaming her brother's recklessness and handed the wooden box to Han Li, signaling Han Li to open it and take a look.

Han Li took the box, looked at the girl, and then opened the box, revealing a golden-yellow talisman brush that emitted a faint yellow light from the tip to the handle.

"This brush is called Jin Zhu. The tip is made from the neck fur of a second-tier spirit beast, the Golden-Eyed Ape, and the handle is made from a mixture of refined gold and black iron, then refined by a Foundation Establishment stage cultivator for three days and three nights with civil and martial fire before it was completed." The girl said softly, but stared at the item with a look of reluctance, with a look of unwillingness in her expression.

Although he didn't fully understand what the girl said, he knew that this brush was extraordinary and had a great history. He was surprised that the other party was willing to part with this item; could it be just for those pills?

"Is the Miss really willing to exchange this brush with me? This is a strange treasure!" Han Li gently stroked the slippery brush handle, looking at the characters "Jin Zhu" engraved on the end of the handle, and confirmed in a low voice.

The girl saw Han Li's doubt, hesitated for a moment, and decided to tell the truth, so that the other party wouldn't think the item was stolen and wouldn't dare to accept it.

"This brush is an heirloom left by my ancestors, used by a talisman-making expert. But unfortunately, my brother and I have no talent for talisman making, wasting this item in vain. And my brother wants to participate in this Ascension Assembly, and his cultivation technique has reached a bottleneck, so he must borrow the power of medicine to break through, which is why he is willing to exchange this item for your pills." The girl said faintly, with a look of helplessness.

"How come I met another guy whose cultivation technique reached a bottleneck! This is too coincidental!" Han Li thought suspiciously.

Actually, Han Li was thinking wrong!

Anyone preparing to participate in the arena competition of the Ascension Assembly, seven or eight out of ten are stuck at a bottleneck and cannot break through. Because anyone who thinks they still have potential to dig and can advance another layer generally won't immediately participate in the arena competition of the Ascension Assembly, but will hide and continue to practice hard, hoping to break through another layer. In this way, when they participate in the next assembly, their chances of breaking through will be greater. This created the situation where pills that can promote magic power are all priceless but marketless before every Ascension Assembly.
