Rain happily came out of the Guard office with 225 spirit stones richer before he went inside.
Gou Li's Aunt," I will go to my store and you all can visit the market."
Gou Li," Yes, Aunt."
Gou Li's Aunt said," And before visiting the stores, you all should book an Inn. I recommend Coral Inn ."
Gou Li," Bye, Aunt in the evening I will visit the store."
Rain watch Gou Li's Aunt walkway.
Xue Lin," Let's start our shopping."
Gou Li," Rain what are you going to buy?"
Rain," You mention the shadow poison and other poison for refining the muscle."
Old Gu, "I should also buy some shadow poison."
Xue Lin," Yes, We should buy some shadow poison for you, the headquarters will take weeks to send the resources for your practice."
As they start to walk, Gou Li stops them and shows them a side-of-the-road inn named Coral Inn, Gou Li," Let's book our rooms first."
Xue Lin," Yes, we should book our rooms first. If by chance all the inns are fully booked we will have to climb down the mountain at night which will be risky."
The rain did not add to his opinion as this was his first coming here and he did not what should be done. So, He followed them to the Inn and booked 4 rooms. Rain paid for his room 5 spirit stone. And with a check on their rooms, they walk out of the inn.
This time to a store named Five Poison House and enter. Rain entered the store but found no one greeted them and the store was without any customers at the back of the store behind a counter stood an Old lady like she was going to die the next moment.
But Rain's face turns solemn as senses crazy warning him to walk out of the store. Rain controls his body with a stoic expression following Xue Lin and others to the counter.
Xue Lin," Senior we need shadow poison."
The Old Lady without any expression spoke," How many?"
Xue Lin turns toward me and Old Gu.
Old Gu hesitated for a few seconds then spoke," 5 doses."
Rain without hesitation spoke, "20 doses."
Which made Xue Lin, Old Gu, and Gu Li stare at him.
Rain," what? I do not when again I will be coming."
The Old Lady," Then 25 doses."
Xue Lin," Yes, but separate in one five and other 20."
The Old lady," Any other thing."
Rain spoke," Yes, Is there any other poison stronger than shadow poison but similar to it acts only on the muscles of the body."
The Old Lady," Yes, there are three- Golden Centipede poison, Dark Vulture Poison, and Ring snake."
Rain," How much is there price?"
The Old Lady," Golden Centipede poison is 10 spirit stones per dose, Dark Vulture Poison is 15 spirit stones per dose and Ring Snake is 8 spirit stones per dose."
Rain calculates in his mind and decides," Then give 2 doses of each one of them."
Old Lady's face broke into a smile," Wait for a few moments I will bring them to you." After they nodded. The Old lady opens a door behind her and enters the room.
Rain," Xue Lin, Gou Li what are you going to buy."
Xue Lin," I am going to buy golden water to break through the Refining energy realm."
Rain smiled," Congratulations and you?" to Gao Li.
Gao Li," No, not me. I did not reach the limit of the gathering strength realm. I am going to buy some potion to reach the limit."
Rain nods," Do you two know where can I buy formation stone?"
Xue Lin," You want to learn forming formation but It will distract you."
Rain," I am still 18 and I feel the formation interesting."
Rain's age stops them further to dissuade him from learning new things."
Xue Lin," I do not want to stop you from learning new things. I want you to first transform your body and then you will have plenty of time to learn."
Rain cannot say to them even if he considers them friends but ultimately they met only under 2 weeks. He still did not trust them to share that he got an idea for the next realm of grandmaster even if his idea was wrong," I want to try it one or two times."
Their conversation stops with an old lady coming back with four vials of liquid of different colors.
The Old Lady puts the vials on the counter in front of them," You all can recognize them with their colors but I also wrote their initials on the cap."
Rain found the vial with black liquid as Shadow poison, Bronze color liquid as Golden Centipede poison, Purple color liquid as Dark Vulture poison, and Pink color liquid as Rink Snake Poison.
Rain took out the spirit stones he needed to pay and put them on the counter. And put his Vials inside his space bag. And they walk out of the store.
Old Gu," Nowhere."
Gao Li," Straight ahead, The store I and Xue Lin are going and The store with formation stone is straight ahead." And they walk after a few moments Rain stops as Gao Li leads them to stop.
Gao Li pointing to the store beside him," Rain you can find formation stone there. And our is opposite this store."
Rain nods.
Gou Li continued," After buying the formation stone, you can meet us at that store or roam the market."
Rain pondered and remembered he had to sell the runes he had drawn. So he replied, "I will roam the market alone and later meet you at the Inn."
Xue Lin, "Ok." and start crossing the street
Rain stood there and watched as they crossed the street and entered the store. Rain also enters the store beside him. This time a female server came to him as he entered the store.
Rain noticed their customers inside the store and spoke to the server," I want to buy formation stone."
The server nods, "Sir, Please follow me." and Rain follows her to the counter. Where there was another female server behind the counter. The server leading him mentioned that the guest wants formation to the server behind the counter and walk way.
Server," Sir, what rank formation stone do you want?"
Rain," Basic and one." Rain watch she took out a Grey Colour Rectangle Plate under the counter and put it on the counter in front of him.
Server," Its price is 50 spirit stones. And do you anything sir."
"No."Rain decided to sell 300 runes because when he entered the store, he noticed someone selling 500 runes, and nobody paid attention to him.
Rain took out 300 runes and 20 spirit stones and put them on the counter in front of the server.
Rain watch the server did not even pay any attention to a large number of runes and started to count the runes. After a few seconds, she finishes," Sir, please visit us next time."
Rain walked out of the store after putting the formation stone in his bag and started walking around the market. While walking he came upon a book store and after entering the book store he had rows of books on shelves and a boy sitting behind the counter.
The Boy," Sir, what books do you like to buy?"
Rain contemplates for a few seconds before seconds," History of the world."
The Boy," Sir, History books on the third row, we can select which one we like to buy."
Rain nods and walks to the shelf on the third row and finds there are multiple books about history. Rain's mind flashes an idea and he opens a book at a fast speed, he flips the pages of the book and with his eyes, he takes pictures of every page of the book. The soul chip gave him a forgotten memory, now he is going to use it.
He did the rest of the history books except the last, he decided to buy it. He is going to spend some time in the bookstore now. He started to room around the shelf and found a shelf named Martial Technique. There are not but three consecutive shelves with martial techniques.
" I cannot flip every book or the boy behind the counter will suspect something. I will flip only top-rank palm and sword techniques. I will also buy a palm technique."
The rain started his work and in a half hour he recorded 16 palm techniques, he also found Violent Bear palm among the techniques and recorded 27 sword techniques and took a top-rank palm technique.
" Now books about runes and formation."
He started searching but found none and went to the counter to ask a question.
The Boy seeing him standing in front of him looks at the two books in his hand," Sir, you found the books you wanted to buy."
Rain," Yes, but I want other books about formation and runes."
The Boy," You cannot find these books here in these markets."
Rain, "Not any stores or anywhere in the market."
The Boy, "No, not in any stores but you can try around the stalls but be careful there are many fakes."
Rain nods and puts the two books on the counter," Then, I want these two?"
The Boy," 2 spirit stones."
Rain handed the spirit stones and put the books inside his space bag. And stood outside the door of the store. He looks left and right unable to decide which way to go. After a few seconds," Let's return to my room in the Inn. I already have everything I need now. Later I can inquire about books about Runes and Formation from Xue Lin."
And starts walking toward the Inn.
