“Why do these spirit herbs look so familiar?” Jiang Ming glanced at a few spirit herbs in the stall and raised his eyebrows.

When he went to the Plant Hall to help with the Misty Rain Technique, he remembered seeing these spirit herbs. They were all valuable, and Feng He had told him to take good care of them.

He did not expect that these things would appear in the black market in the blink of an eye!

However, Jiang Ming just glanced at them and continued to walk forward. Huang Chu and Feng He, the big shots of the Plant Hall, did not pursue this matter. Therefore, why should he meddle?

It was not even his own spirit herbs. He was just a farmer.

As he walked around the black market, Jiang Ming grew excited. Many things that were not seen in the past were now placed on the stalls. It only took Jiang Ming a moment to see more than a dozen rare middle-grade magical weapons. Moreover, the price was not high, and the stall owner was looking for buyers urgently.

Jiang Ming was tempted. He walked to a stall, pointed to a red sword, and haggled with the shopkeeper.

Although he already had the Thunderous Bow, it was a long-range weapon. He still needed another magical weapon for short-range combat. It would be a good idea to take this opportunity to buy one.

The shopkeeper’s face was bitter. “Friend, this sword here, the Scarlet Separation Sword, is of excellent quality. Not only can it be used for short-range combat, but it is also a melee weapon. It is extremely strong and can be considered one of the best middle-grade magical weapons. Usually, people would buy it even if it was priced at seven hundred spirit stones.”

Jiang Ming pouted. “That’s the usual price. However, hasn’t the situation changed now? It’s been a few months since the chaos, and you still haven’t sold it. If you don’t accept my offer, you might never sell it!”

“Friend, are you kidding me? I’m a businessman. I’ll find someone else to buy it.” The shopkeeper quickly waved his hand.

Jiang Ming glanced at the stall.

“Last offer! Three hundred spirit stones!”

The shopkeeper almost exploded. He gritted his teeth and said, “The lowest price is five hundred. This magical weapon is cheap and of good quality. If you don’t buy it today, you might not find it tomorrow!”

“Forget it. You can sell it to someone else!” Jiang Ming sneered and turned around to leave.

“Hey! Come back! Come back!”

The shopkeeper quickly stood up and shouted, pulling Jiang Ming back.

His magical weapons were of good quality and cheap. However, it was obviously not easy to sell these stolen goods. There were even fewer people who could afford them for a few hundred spirit stones. How could he let Jiang Ming go?

“Three hundred is too low! I still have to pay rent,” The shopkeeper said awkwardly.

“Three hundred is all I have.” Jiang Ming’s tone was firm, and he did not give in.

The shopkeeper really wanted to kick him away. However, he was reluctant to let him go. “Three fifty! Any lower and I won’t sell it to you!”

Jiang Ming’s eyes twinkled. He suddenly smiled brightly. “What’s this? An extra fifty spirit stones in my pocket? I didn’t even notice.”

The shopkeeper’s face was gloomy.

A few minutes later, Jiang Ming picked up the Scarlet Separation Sword and waved it twice. He liked it.

The Scarlet Separation Sword contained red fire copper essence, and its strength was top-notch. The only drawback was that it was a little heavy. It weighed a few hundred pounds. It was difficult for ordinary Qi Refinement Realm cultivators to swing it freely without tempering their bodies.

However, this was not a problem for Jiang Ming.

He continued to stroll around the black market in high spirits and bought some high-quality middle-grade talismans from a few stalls to add to his arsenal. It was always good to be prepared.

“What is this?”

Jiang Ming walked to a shop that specialized in cultivation techniques and spells. It also had some miscellaneous books and classics. He casually browsed through them. Suddenly, his eyes lit up.

He did not expect to finally encounter a real forbidden technique after being in the world of immortal cultivation for so many years.

“I’m taking this!”

Next to the Jade Slip was a piece of paper that briefly introduced the contents of the Jade Slip.

This was the Mystic Flame Spirit Sacrifice Spell. It was an offensive fire spell that would also refine the spiritual energy in the user’s spiritual core when practiced. Practicing this spell long-term could lead to a breakthrough in cultivation!

However, it had a fatal flaw. When used too much it could damage the user’s meridians and even their spiritual core in the long run! It could even kill the user instantly if they did not stop using it!

“Friend, please consider this purchase carefully,” The shopkeeper raised his brows and said without any emotion. “This is a forbidden technique!”

“Life is about taking risks!” Jiang Ming’s eyes were slightly crazy.

“Another madman who doesn’t care about his life, I see,” the shopkeeper thought to himself and spread out five fingers. “Fifty spirit stones!”

“What?” Jiang Ming was stunned.

“The lowest is forty-five!” The shopkeeper’s brows furrowed. “I’ll throw in a cluster of Purple Mystic Fire as well!”

Jiang Ming was dumbfounded. He did not think it was expensive at all. On the contrary, he was shocked it was so cheap!

Jiang Ming blinked. He supposed it was hard to sell because it was a forbidden technique. He nodded.

“Deal!”

Jiang Ming paid for it and also bought a few miscellaneous books from the shopkeeper before he left with satisfaction.

Jiang Ming returned home, satisfied. This trip to the black market was really worth it.

He took out the Scarlet Separation Sword, which was worth hundreds of spirit stones, and practiced with it for an entire afternoon before he stopped.

Then, he took out the Jade Slip and started to read it carefully.

He had been in the world of cultivators for so long. However, he still did not have a cultivation technique that could really improve his strength in all aspects.

After half an hour, Jiang Ming raised his head in surprise and joy. He could not help but smile brightly. “Finally! There’s another ordinary attack technique.”
