Immortal Cultivation: Starting from a Pharmacy Apprentice
Chapter 325: PurchaseChapter 325: Chapter 325: Purchase
Silkworm Valley only accepted female cultivators.
Bai Mo and Brother Chen were not allowed to enter, so they obediently waited outside the valley.
It wasn’t a matter of separating men and women, but rather that the Spiritual Silkworms, mulberry wood, and other natural treasures within Silkworm Valley had formed a peculiar, interconnected web of qi.
It was a true treasure land.
If they opened it up and allowed outside disciples to enter, they feared an accident might occur and disrupt the delicate balance within.
After only a moment, An Caiwei hurried over.
Bai Mo was just about to say goodbye to Brother Chen when he noticed the man staring intently at another female cultivator who had just come out.
The female cultivator was not unattractive and possessed a gentle and graceful air.
Brother Chen turned his head and met Bai Mo’s gaze, an embarrassed look involuntarily appearing on his face.
"Thank you for bringing me here, Senior Brother. Once I have some free time, I’ll be sure to visit you at the market."
Bai Mo was the first to speak.
Brother Chen laughed.
"See you later, see you later."
The two parted ways.
An Caiwei ran over and handed Bai Mo a palm-sized jade bottle.
"Why did you suddenly come out?
This is the Silkworm Valley Dawn Mist I collected. It’s of the finest quality."
Bai Mo took the jade bottle. With a flip of his palm, it vanished.
"Senior Sister’s skills are impressive. You’ve only just arrived at Silkworm Valley, yet you’ve already achieved such mastery."
"Cut it out. Collecting the dawn mist is a basic skill in Silkworm Valley."
An Caiwei said irritably, then secretly pointed in Brother Chen’s direction.
"Who was that?"
Bai Mo said softly, "He’s the disciple permanently stationed at the market, the one you told me about. Thanks to Brother Chen, I was able to get out."
"This inner sect is massive."
"And Mi Mountain is so remote, it’s inconvenient to travel. Senior Sister, do you know where I can buy a Flying Ship?"
An Caiwei was taken aback.
"Buy a Flying Ship? You’re that wealthy?"
Bai Mo’s expression remained neutral.
"Have you forgotten, Senior Sister? I have assets in Immortal Arrival City, too."
"Although I’ve spent a lot on my Alchemy Dao research, I still have some savings."
An Caiwei felt a pang of jealousy.
After successfully reaching Foundation Establishment, the An family had basically stopped supporting her, leaving her to fend for herself.
’I really underestimated this Junior Brother before.’
"As for good shops, there are plenty nearby. The goods they trade all come from the various important territories within the inner sect."
"But when it comes to Flying Ships, Junior Brother, you’d best choose the forge from Kongliu Valley. The quality of their Flying Ships is number one in the inner sect."
"And because their prices are reasonable, they’ve suppressed their competitors to the point they can’t even get a foothold."
Compared to Bai Mo, who was cooped up on his mountain, An Caiwei was clearly much better informed.
After listening quietly, Bai Mo asked:
"Where is the Kongliu Valley’s forge located?"
An Caiwei gave him directions.
"Head east for less than a hundred li, and you’ll find a large market. Many disciples go there to purchase their cultivation necessities."
"Once you get there, just ask for Kongliu Valley and you’ll find it. But be careful not to get tricked by the other shops..."
Bai Mo nodded.
"Noted."
"You should get back to your own business, Senior Sister. I can go by myself."
They were both newcomers who had just found their footing in the inner sect, so neither was particularly idle.
Bai Mo departed alone. Midway, he caught a ride with a kind disciple passing by and finally arrived at the large market.
The market was the size of a county town, packed with shops that were all money-making ventures for the various important territories of the inner sect.
Disciples of all kinds came and went, their auras rising and falling. Bai Mo couldn’t see through them clearly.
Among these disciples, there were those with faces full of exhaustion, forcing a smile, as well as high-spirited trendsetters whose sharpness was on full display.
Evidently, the inner sect had its own little ecosystem.
Walking down the middle of the market road, Bai Mo casually stopped a disciple.
"Greetings, Senior Brother. Do you know the location of the Kongliu Valley’s forge?"
"Could you point me in the right direction?"
The disciple blinked.
"Junior Brother, are you looking to purchase a Flying Ship?"
"Well, I’ll be! Judging by your aura, Junior Brother, you must have just reached Foundation Establishment not long ago, yet you have such financial resources."
He suddenly became enthusiastic, grabbing Bai Mo’s arm and pulling him to the side.
"Come on, come on! I’ll take you to find a top-quality Flying Ship."
Bai Mo also blinked and exchanged some pleasantries with this Senior Brother.
After a few rounds of enthusiastic pushing and shoving, Bai Mo finally managed to pull his arm free and fled in a hurry.
After wandering around for a moment, he finally found the Kongliu Valley’s forge.
’The number one seller of Flying Ships truly lives up to its reputation.’
The shop’s footprint alone was more than double the size of the neighboring stores, and inside, more than ten Flying Ships of different styles were on display.
Numerous Array Plates and decorative patterns hung on the walls.
The CLANG CLANG CLANG of hammering could be heard from the back.
Apparently, this place had a layout where they sold in the front and crafted in the back.
As for the Senior Brother from just now, he had been trying to lead Bai Mo in a completely different direction.
Bai Mo shook his head slightly.
’The other competitors really will stop at nothing to poach customers.’
’Good thing Senior Sister warned me.’
With this thought, Bai Mo stepped into the workshop.
A customer’s arrival immediately attracted the attention of several idle disciples.
After a brief exchange of glances, a disciple with a kind and friendly face stepped forward.
"Welcome, Junior Brother. What can I help you with today?"
Bai Mo cupped his hands in a salute.
"I’m looking to acquire a Flying Ship. I wonder if Senior Brother has any recommendations?"
The receiving disciple led Bai Mo, guiding him as they weaved between the displayed Flying Ships.
"When it comes to Kongliu Valley’s Flying Ships, if we claim to be second best in the inner sect, no one would dare claim to be the first."
"Different styles of Flying Ships have different specializations, such as spatial traversal, array-breaking, and combat."
The receiving disciple clasped his hands.
"However, the rarer the function, the higher the price. I wonder, what price range does Junior Brother have in mind?"
Bai Mo directly held up one finger.
"Around fifteen thousand Spirit Stones. Please pick one out for me, Senior Brother."
The attending disciple’s breath hitched. He hadn’t expected this Junior Brother to be such a big spender.
His expression flickered for a moment before returning to normal.
"In that case, Junior Brother has many Flying Ships to choose from."
"We have several models with combined functions. You can take a look. We also have optional decorative patterns..."
After picking through them for a good while, Bai Mo settled on a shuttle-shaped Flying Ship that resembled a long, thin blade of grass.
"What about this ship, equipped with the spatial traversal and array-breaking Array Patterns you mentioned, Senior Brother?"
The attending disciple replied without hesitation.
"With those, this ship’s speed can reach the highest tier. In the future, if you encounter restrictive formations or trapping arrays, you’ll have a greater chance of survival."
"You should know, however, Junior Brother, that such high speeds must be paired with an advanced method for mobilizing Divine Thought."
"Otherwise, you won’t have enough fine control to operate it freely."
Bai Mo made up his mind.
"Let’s go with that."
This casual decisiveness made the attending disciple give him another look.
"Junior Brother, please wait a moment."
"I’ll have the disciples in the back configure it. It won’t take long, just an hour."
He hurried away, and another disciple came over from the side.
"Junior Brother, please have some tea while you wait."
"Alright."
「An hour later.」
Bai Mo received his Flying Ship, priced at thirteen thousand five hundred Spirit Stones.
The Flying Ship was shaped like a leaf, and when the spatial traversal Array Pattern was activated, it was covered in a flowing, verdant green light.
"A product of our Kongliu Valley is guaranteed to be of the finest quality."
"If it gets damaged from bumps or battles, just bring it to any Kongliu Valley forge, Junior Brother. If no materials are needed for the repairs, we won’t charge a fee."
The attending disciple added these careful instructions.
Bai Mo couldn’t help but smile.
’So considerate. No wonder they’re the leader in the inner sect’s Flying Ship market.’
Stepping onto the Flying Ship, Bai Mo infused it with his Spiritual Qi and immediately perceived the Array Patterns covering the entire vessel.
After a brief period of experimentation, he had more or less gotten the hang of operating the Flying Ship.
"Senior Brother, do you know where the Foreign Affairs Hall is?"
"Not far. For an ordinary person piloting a Flying Ship, it’s just over a day’s journey."
The attending disciple pointed out the way.
From atop the Flying Ship, Bai Mo gave him a parting salute.
Then, with a single thought, the Flying Ship transformed into a streak of light and sped into the distance.
