The counter was empty and there were no customers standing there unlike the many other counters. This was the counter that sold spirit herbs and there seemed to be no one buying them.
‘Guess with the massive number of immortals here, spirit herbs aren’t as useful for them.’ Lin Mu guessed.
~step~step~
Lin Mu came to stand in front of the counter, making the man rouse from his drowsy state.
“Ah! A customer!” the man stood up with surprise. “What do you want sir?” the man asked enthusiastically.
‘Finally someone willing to buy. I though I would never fulfill the quota.’ The man thought.
“I need a catalog of all wood elemental spirit herbs that you might have.” Lin Mu inquired.
Hearing this the man took a look at Lin Mu again, finding him to be an immortal too.
‘Doesn’t matter, its good as long as he buys.’ The clerk thought and quickly took out a small plate.
~clink~
He tapped on it and several runes appeared in the air. The runes turned into a screen that showed several lists of items.
“Here are all the wood elemental spirit herbs we have, sir. If you buy in bulk, we also offer discount.” The man stated.
Lin Mu looked through the wood spirit herbs and found them to be relatively cheap.
‘Aren’t these herbs considered really rare in the Xiaofan world? Here they are selling for the same price as mid level herbs.’ Lin Mu saw another big difference between a mortal world and a peak level immortal world.
They were at different standards and even herbs as rare as these were not being sold.
‘Still, all these will be pretty good for Little Shrubby.’ Lin Mu decided his order.
“I’ll take all of these.” Lin Mu pointed out several of the high level herbs that were rare.
“All of them?” the clerk asked for confirmation.
“Yes, all of them.” Lin Mu confirmed.
Upon hearing this the man beamed with a wide smile. ‘This is enough for the coming four months of quota!’
“It’ll get the ready right away sir, please wait here. I’ll let someone to serve you some tea.” The clerk almost sprinted away with joy, making Lin Mu raise a brow.
“That was a little weird…” Lin Mu said before sitting down.
A minute later a servant arrived to serve Lin Mu tea.
The scent of the tea was quite good and Lin Mu could sense the spirit qi emanating from it as well.
‘Even the basic serving tea is of a high quality. Spirit tea like this would sell for quite a lot. This is the same has consuming an elixir.’ Lin Mu was starting to see the luxuries of his past world falling to basics.
He continued to enjoy the tea while listening to the conversations of the people. There were easily over a hundred immortals in the shop right now and all of them were here to buy different things.
In all this though, Lin Mu picked on some interesting conversations.
“Did the Crown Prince of Dao Wind Empire really return?”
“Yeah, wasn’t he cultivating in the Immortal court? Why did he return?”
“Who knows, but he’s brought several people with him too. All of them seem to be people of high status as they are all eligible to practice in the Immortal court.”
“That’s nothing, I heard that they are going to the Tournament of the Four Guardian beasts later too.”
“Will they be participating too? If they do then the winners are already decided.”
“Mmhmm, the crown prince is rumored to be at the Sixth Tribulation Stage of the Immortal realm.”
Lin Mu was interested because of the mention of the tournament but didn’t expect to hear such information.
‘The crown prince of the Dao Wind Empire… it’s the largest one on Rust Sky world and the Emperor is said to be the strongest expert too.’ Lin Mu had seen information about him in the jade slip.
And another thing that made him curious was the fact that the crown prince had been practicing in the immortal court too. Lin Mu had been offered a position there by the Saintess, thus he knew that it was a big matter to have that.
“Also, have you heard about the Trash Prince?”
“What Trash Prince?”
“The supposed eleventh prince of the Holy Topaz Empire. He has apparently become domineering after a breakthrough. He broke through from the Immortal Ascension realm directly to the Second Tribulation stage of the immortal realm in one go.
Then he went and fought two Fourth Tribulation stage experts at the same time and won. I think it won’t be long before we’ll hear about another Immortal Court candidate.” This part of the conversation was quite interesting to Lin Mu.
‘A trash prince that would breakthrough suddenly? And that too from the Holy Topaz Empire…’ Lin Mu took note.
He looked through the jade slip to learn more about the Holy Topaz Empire and soon found quite a bit.
‘Hmm… the Holy Topaz Empire worships their ancestor and the ranking in the royal family is also based on their bloodline. Those who are able to awaken the Holy Topaz Bloodline are considered as the top level members.
The eleventh prince in question was unofficially called trash since his meridians were mutated and he accumulated a lot of pill toxins. Additionally
due to the mutated meridians, the royal family considers him to have an impure bloodline.’ Lin Mu read all the present information.
He could see that the intelligence in the jade slip did not have the latest information about the Eleventh Prince.
“This must be a very recent thing then…” Lin Mu found it a little strange.
While he didn’t know what kind of person the eleventh prince was, his domineering rise showed that he was now exacting revenge against those who had suppressed him before.
Lin Mu continued to listen to the conversations and about fifteen minutes passed like that. It was at this point that the clerk finally returned with a pouch.
