Chapter 199 - 199: Demonstrating Strength
With such a reputation, Li Ming’s words and actions were no different from before, without a trace of arrogance and despotism. Thinking about how he had to deal with the core disciples of the various large sects every day, Meng Ran could not help but sigh in his heart. If the Divine Will Sect did not prosper, then there would be no justice.
“Haha, that’s good. We’re all old friends.” Li Ming said with a smile. He had dealt with Fu Dong and the others many times, so he was very familiar with this kind of thing.
Meng Ran also smiled and pointed at Li Ming. “I knew it. You must have something to do today. Tell me, are you here to sell or to buy?”
“Old Meng knows me best. I’m going to buy some five elements materials.”
“Five elements materials? What do you want these for?” Meng Ran looked confused.
Suddenly, he remembered something. “Oh, look at my memory. You’re an artifact refiner and a pill refiner!”
Li Ming did not explain further. Instead, he asked with a smile, “I want to choose a few materials with stronger five elements. Do you have them here?”
“Okay, do you want the average one or the better one?”
“Average.”
“Come with me.” Meng Ran nodded and said to Li Ming. With that, he led the way.
Meng Ran’s backyard was in the front of the store. Li Ming followed behind him. He crossed the shop and came to the back. After passing through the courtyard and entering the inner room, Li Ming realized that the door to the inner room was surrounded by restrictions.
Even though Li Ming was knowledgeable, he couldn’t help but feel shocked. There were many powerful restrictions among them. Other than that, there were also countless bewitching and confusing restrictions.
Just as he was puzzled, Meng Ran’s figure suddenly stopped. He formed a few hand seals and a light door suddenly appeared in front of him.
“Let’s go in.” Meng Ran took the lead and stepped in.
Li Ming’s heart skipped a beat and he followed closely behind.
With one step, the world before him suddenly opened up. Hundreds of pine shelves that were 10 feet tall were neatly placed together. The shelves were filled with all kinds of materials, and a strange fragrance floated in the air.
It was Li Ming’s first time seeing such a spectacular scene. He thought to himself that Meng Ran’s business seemed to have far exceeded his expectations!
Meng Ran hid his strength and was not an ordinary person!
Li Ming felt his footsteps become lighter. He was stunned and subconsciously looked at the ground.
“Brother Li?” Meng Ran smiled when he saw Li Ming’s surprised expression. “I believe Brother Li doesn’t come to this warehouse often.’
“The floor of the warehouse has a Levitation Array. The people inside can float in the air and easily get things. Even if you accidentally drop something on the ground, it won’t be broken.”
“I understand!” Li Ming immediately understood.
He kicked his legs slightly, his body floating in the air like a light feather. What was even more amazing was that he could change his direction in the air. This was too amazing!
A smile appeared on Meng Ran’s face. He had brought Li Ming to the warehouse because he wanted Li Ming to see his strength. The Divine Will Sect would prosper in the future. If he wanted to cooperate with such a sect, he first had to have enough strength.
“These are all five elements materials. Take whatever you want. Yes, I’ll give you a discount.” Meng Ran smiled. It was a discount and not a free gift, which made Li Ming feel even more comfortable.
“Thank you, Brother Meng!” Li Ming said sincerely.
People with strength were respected.
Li Ming dived into it and began to pick and choose.
His requirements for the materials were very special. He did not care about the grade of the materials. As long as they had the five elements, the Five-colored Pagoda was not picky. The main goal of the Five-colored Pagoda now was not to increase its quality, but to recover its vitality. Therefore, he did not have much thought about high-grade materials.
Moreover, according to Li Ming’s style, he planned to maximize the cost-performance ratio by choosing the cheapest materials with the strongest power of the five elements!
Li Ming, who had returned to the sect, was in a good mood.
When he thought of Meng Ran’s dumbstruck appearance, he felt secretly pleased. As if he were robbing the man, he bought all the materials that were not commonly used from Meng Ran.
Three hundred third-grade spirit stones were not a lot but were more than enough to buy some low-grade materials.
Five-colored Berries were first-grade materials that contained rich Five Elements Yuan Qi. However, because the Five Elements Yuan Qi was too chaotic, it was only used when refining pills.
There were twenty of them in a bundle, and each bundle cost ten second-grade spirit stones.
The Golden-Spotted Snake-scented Herbs contained rich metal attribute energy. It was an auxiliary material for refining flying swords, but because it had too many substitutes, it could only be considered a low-grade material. The dried Golden-Spotted Snake-scented Herbs weighed two taels each and were sold for five second-grade spirit stones.
The Seven-colored Vines were called the Seven-colored Vines because they were colorful and looked like a rainbow. When thrown into a flame, they could increase the power of the flame. A bundle weighed ten pounds and was worth 15 second-grade spirit stones.
When he moved all the materials he had bought into the courtyard, the silly bird flew over the roof and inspected the materials. Then, he returned to the roof with a disappointed expression. There were no “snacks” that he wanted to eat.
Li Ming didn’t have the time to deal with this lazy creature. He summoned the Five-colored Pagoda.
Fortunately, he had cultivated the Vajra Seal.
Looking at the mountain of materials, Li Ming took a deep breath and circulated the Vajra Seal. He took off his outer clothes and revealed his torso. He shook his arms and began to move.
He tied up the Five-colored Berries in bundles of ten, and the Golden-Spotted
Snake-scented Herbs danced on his fingertips like raindrops. The
Seven-colored Vines, which weighed ten pounds each, were the most tiring. Li Ming worked like a laborer.
In the courtyard, Li Ming was sweating profusely. He was still humming loudly. “Pagoda, you’re a cow. You eat grass and make milk…”
The Five-colored Pagoda seemed to be drunk. It swayed and absorbed all the materials.
When the last material was sucked into the pagoda, the Five-colored Pagoda fell to the ground with a thud.
Li Ming was stunned. He couldn’t care less about his bare upper body. He squatted down and reached out to touch the Five-colored Pagoda. There was no reaction at all!
A moment later, the Five-colored Pagoda rolled twice on the ground and climbed up shakily. Li Ming’s tense heart immediately relaxed and he laughed loudly. “Hey, I thought you were full. In the end, it’s not enough!”
The Five-colored Pagoda seemed to have heard it, it shook, and with a “wah” sound, something sprayed out and fell to the ground. It spun around and stopped moving.
Li Ming was delighted. Could it be that it spat out the putty again? Those things were valuable like spirit stones!
However, when he took a closer look, he was disappointed. It was not mud, but a small bundle of Five-colored Berries. “Little Pagoda, you don’t like this thing?” He couldn’t help but raise his head and ask in surprise.
The Five-colored Pagoda shook again and rolled past Li Ming..
