Chapter 352

Seeing the old man's eagerness, Han Li smiled faintly, casually took the storage bag containing the materials from his body, and sprayed the bag's opening gently toward the ground. Instantly, after a flash of white light, the materials of the white spider and the mantis covered the ground. 【Web】

"These are..."

Shopkeeper Xu lowered his head and picked up a lower limb of a white spider, examining it intently with a look of confusion on his face.

Clearly, although the old man was a master of artifact refining, he was not familiar with these rare exotic insects. Therefore, even though he saw the extraordinary nature of these materials, he was still completely bewildered.

Seeing him like this, Han Li smiled and introduced them:

"Most of these materials are the shell and lower limbs of a Level 4 white spider monster, and others are the forelimbs and wings of a giant mantis. Both are Level 4 monsters, especially the latter, which is a top-tier Level 4 monster and very powerful. I hope you can make good use of these materials; it took quite a lot of effort to obtain them!"

"Materials from a Level 4 monster!" The white-haired old man exclaimed in surprise, but immediately fell into ecstasy.

One must know that usually, let alone Level 4 monsters, even materials from monsters above Level 2 were rarely seen by him.

"Yes, Shopkeeper Xu! But this time, I have some special requirements for refining the magic tools that I hope you can fulfill. Only if you can do so can these materials be handed over to you for refining. The remuneration will be the same as last time; you can keep a portion of the materials as the cost for refining the magic tools." Han Li said with extreme calmness.

"Senior, rest assured. No matter what the requirements are, this old man will definitely comply! Being able to personally refine such top-tier materials, I haven't wasted my life learning the way of artifact refining!" Shopkeeper Xu picked up a giant mantis arm again and stroked it gently, his eyes full of fanatical expression.

Seeing the other party reveal such an expression, Han Li was a bit surprised, but felt more at ease in his heart, and said to the old man gently:

"The magic tools I want to refine this time are quite special. First of all, it would be best if you could refine these spider limbs into a set of attack magic tools, and that mantis..."

An hour later, Han Li and Qu Hun walked out of this artifact refining shop.

He and Shopkeeper Xu had agreed to let him examine these materials first and think carefully about the refining method. Tomorrow, Han Li would bring the materials over, and he would officially begin refining.

Now, Han Li took this opportunity to walk around the marketplace. Because from the old man's words, he finally confirmed what he had been thinking.

It turned out that the news of the crushing defeat of the Yue Kingdom and the two countries' cultivators had already reached the Yuanwu Kingdom. Now, whether it was cultivation families or rogue cultivators in the Yuanwu Kingdom, everyone's hearts were restless, and everyone had a premonition that a storm was coming.

Therefore, numerous cultivators flocked to the marketplace, taking many rare and hard-to-find items to the marketplace to exchange for things they urgently needed to increase their own strength to cope with this great disaster.

Thus, within just a few days, news of one premium magic tool, medicinal pill, and other items appearing in various marketplaces in the Yuanwu Kingdom spread, attracting even more cultivators who moved upon hearing the news, which caused all the marketplaces to be so prosperous.

With such a good opportunity before him, Han Li naturally wouldn't let it slip by.

Thinking this, Han Li began to stroll around the shops everywhere.

Sure enough, there were indeed many more good things in these shops, and even quite a few top-tier magic tools had appeared, which greatly surprised Han Li.

Although ordinary top-tier magic tools had long since lost their appeal to Han Li, when he came last time, there were very few shops that had top-tier magic tools.

After strolling around roughly, Han Li only collected a few rare medicinal herbs he hadn't seen before in these shops and then stopped. Then, he headed straight for the "Star Dust Pavilion" in the center of the marketplace.

Having had the experience of buying and selling things in the marketplace a few times, Han Li already knew that if he really wanted to buy good things, he should go to those large shops with strong strength. Only they had the strength to collect some rare items.

As for those small stalls, perhaps they really had a few good things, but they could never compare to the collections of large shops.

When he went to the "Ten Thousand Treasures Pavilion" in the Huang Feng Valley marketplace, didn't he find many rare items before long!

Holding this thought, Han Li took Qu Hun and walked into the Heavenly Star Sect's "Star Dust Pavilion," that huge building twenty or thirty zhang tall.

As soon as he entered the building, Han Li was stunned for a moment.

Because in the lobby on the first floor, there were actually twenty or thirty cultivators bustling about, all gathered in front of the few counters around, talking to a few shop assistants wearing red clothes, and no one looked at Han Li.

Han Li scratched the back of his head, looked at the stairs leading to the second floor, and walked slowly toward one of the counters, looking indifferent.

There were three Qi Condensation stage cultivators by this counter. One of them was holding a white array flag and examining it over and over again, mumbling something to a shop assistant, seemingly very dissatisfied.

And that person from the Star Dust Pavilion always had a face full of smiles, not caring at all, and kept explaining something.

But when these few cultivators saw Han Li and Qu Hun behind him coming over, they immediately stopped talking.

It was very obvious that they held great wariness toward unfamiliar cultivators!

Seeing the cultivator holding the array flag hurriedly take out dozens of spirit stones from his body and hand them to the shop assistant, he took the set of array flags and the other two and flew away rapidly.

Han Li looked at the backs of these people leaving with some depression, feeling a bit baffled in his heart!

But just at this moment, the shop assistant said politely to Han Li:

"Senior, I am truly sorry! This is the first floor. I am afraid there are no items suitable for Senior here. If Senior really wants to buy things, please go to the third floor and above. That is the place specifically for receiving high-level cultivators."

Hearing this, Han Li paused slightly, but his expression immediately returned to normal, and he asked faintly.

"How many floors does your Star Dust Pavilion have? Introduce it to me."

This person looked a bit surprised, but still said respectfully:

"Of course. Since Senior is coming to our Star Dust Pavilion for the first time, it is only right to introduce our pavilion to you."

"Our Star Dust Pavilion has a total of nine floors. The first seven floors are open to the public, and outsiders must stop at the last two floors. Among the first seven floors, the first to third floors receive low-level Qi Condensation stage cultivators, while the fourth to sixth floors are responsible for high-level cultivators like Senior. As for the seventh floor, it is only open to Core Formation stage cultivators."

This person introduced it to Han Li efficiently. Han Li nodded after listening and walked straight toward the stairs leading to the second floor without saying a word.

The second and third floors were smaller in area than the one below, but they were clearly much more luxurious and elegant in their layout. It seemed that the higher the level, the more precious the items sold should be.

Thinking this, Han Li did not stop on these two floors, even walking past the fourth floor and arriving at the fifth floor.

When he wanted to go to the sixth floor, he was stopped by a red-clothed servant guarding the stairs.

"This guest, according to the pavilion's regulations, whether you can go to the sixth floor must be approved by the shopkeeper of the fifth floor." This handsome servant said with an expressionless face. Although he only had Qi Condensation stage cultivation, he did not fear Han Li's Foundation Establishment stage identity at all.

Han Li furrowed his brows but did not get angry, instead entering the lobby of the fifth floor as instructed.

Although the lobby was not large, there were several young and beautiful maids serving there. When Han Li entered, a man and a woman were just chatting easily.

The man was thirty-five or thirty-six years old with an ordinary appearance. The woman was about forty years old, quite charming with the grace of a noble lady, and one could tell she was a rare beauty when she was young.

Both of these people were Foundation Establishment stage cultivators, especially the middle-aged lady, who actually had Foundation Establishment late-stage cultivation, which made Han Li feel a chill in his heart.

"Fellow Daoist, is there anything you need this concubine to help with?" As soon as the middle-aged lady saw Han Li coming over, she turned her head and smiled charmingly at him. Her voice was extremely crisp, making it very comfortable to listen to.

"I want to buy some real premium items, whether they are magic tools or talismans. I wonder if you have any here, Madam?" Han Li glanced at this noble lady and said with a cold expression.

Hearing Han Li's somewhat arrogant tone, the man looked at Han Li with some surprise.

"Hehe! You have truly come to the right place to buy premium items, Fellow Daoist. As long as you can pay, we can definitely satisfy you." The middle-aged lady was not young, but her laughter was as moving as a young woman's.

"However, it's a coincidence. This Fellow Daoist also wants to buy premium items. You two wait a moment; I will take the things out for you two to see." The lady said with a smile.

Afterward, she turned her head and ordered with a straight face:

"Purple Lotus! Serve tea to the two distinguished guests!"

"Yes, Madam!" A maid standing behind the lady responded respectfully.

Then, the lady walked out calmly, while the maid served a cup of clear tea to Han Li and the man with a smile.
