Chen Lin's heart moved when he heard the female clerk's introduction.
At this moment, he finally got the exact effect of the one-armed circumvention, and it was just as he had thought before.
What made him even more excited was that even a shop assistant could casually take out this item to display, which meant that this item was not that valuable here and the price should be within his budget.
In addition, small detours and one-arm detours are now available, and higher-level detours should also be available.
There is hope for his soul advancement!
While thinking in his heart, Chen Lin was not idle either, and he said directly: "It's okay, just open it directly."
Hearing Chen Lin say this, the clerk nodded, took out a peculiarly shaped object, and scratched a groove on the box. Then a flash of light appeared on the box, and the clerk then picked up the lid with his hand.
Chen Lin immediately looked inside, and a hint of joy flashed in his eyes.
It turns out that he is walking around with one arm!
He had used this thing twice and was very familiar with it. He knew it would be correct without even trying it.
"Yes, it is indeed a one-armed detour, and the quality is quite good. I wonder how much it costs?"
Chen Lin took the thing out of the box, looked at it and asked.
The female clerk smiled and said, "This may be your first time in our store. We never charge for the items on the second floor. You need to barter or complete the tasks posted by our store and exchange them with task points."
This condition made Chen Lin frown.
I didn't expect the other party to have such a rule. It seems that it will take some effort to get this thing.
He has quite a few treasures on him, but they are all used by cultivators and are of two different systems from the treasures here.
Not to mention that taking them out would attract attention, most of the things here are of no use to the people here, let alone an estimate of their value.
Chen Lin glanced at Lvliu, wondering if he could use the princess's name to get the other party to relax their conditions.
At this time, the middle-aged man walked in and said with a smile: "Rules are dead, but people are alive. Master Lin is the princess' friend. Since he is visiting our store for the first time, we must give him a discount. We will sell this one-armed detour for a dime, and give Master Lin the lowest price."
"Thank you very much!"
Chen Lin immediately clasped his fists to express his gratitude.
With just one arm, he could refine a lot of simplified soul-refining pills, which would be enough for him to use for a while.
Although the simplified version of the Soul Refining Pill is already very ineffective, it still has some effect. If the price paid is too high, it is naturally not worth it. However, if you only pay some useless dimes, you can continue to refine and use it until there is no effect at all.
Even if he offered the lowest price, it would still cost three hundred gold dimes, which was more than a hundred times what Xiao Raoxing paid. Chen Lin had to almost empty out all his previous fortune to barely raise the money.
Despite this, Chen Lin was also very happy.
Dimes were of no use to him, and if he wanted, he could just go out and rob some bandits and get a lot of them, which was equivalent to getting them for free.
Thinking of this, he couldn't help but feel a toothache again. The price he paid to obtain this thing the previous two times was really exaggerated.
Satisfied, he put the one-armed beast back into the box and put it into the space bag.
This box is a sealing device that can isolate the special energy released by the one-armed creature to avoid harming creatures within the rules.
"Boss, does your store have more advanced items of this kind, such as a two-armed walk or a three-armed walk?"
Chen Lin was greedy and looked at the middle-aged man with expectation.
The middle-aged man waved his hand hastily and said, "Mr. Lin, you are joking. I am not the shopkeeper here. I am just a manager."
After explaining for a while, he continued, "We do have the two-arm detour, but it cannot be traded for pennies. You can only exchange it with treasures of equal value, or with our store's mission points. As for the more advanced three-arm detour, we have a few in stock, but we don't have the higher-level four-arm detour."
After a pause, he continued, "Not only do we not have it, but no store in the entire capital has it either. Circumvehicles of that level are extremely rare, and they are difficult to catch and store. Of course, there must be some in the palace treasury. Master Lin, you can ask the princess to think of a solution."
Chen Lin’s eyes became brighter and brighter.
If even the four-arm circumambulation exists, then the eight-arm circumambulation won’t be far behind!
However, what he is sure of now is that only the one-armed detour beast is suitable for the soul-refining pills of Qiyun Alchemy, and the eight-armed detour beast can be used for the genuine soul-refining pills. It is hard to say whether other levels of detour beasts are useful, and he needs to experiment.
Thinking of this, he looked at the middle-aged man and said, "I wonder how to get the task points in your store? Can I have a task list?"
"Of course." The middle-aged man replied with a smile, and then said to the female clerk: "Go and get one for Mr. Lin."
The salesgirl walked away and soon returned with a booklet.
The middle-aged man took it and handed it to Chen Lin, saying, "All the tasks posted by our store are listed above. If you are interested, you can give it a try, but some of the tasks are very dangerous. You should do it according to your ability. It is best to discuss it with the princess before doing it."
Chen Lin took it, flipped through it briefly, nodded, put it away, said goodbye and left the store.
I wandered around the market town for a while, and then returned home in high spirits.
When I returned to the Princess' Mansion, Princess Qinghua had already reported back, but she brought back bad news.
"The number of places in the Soul Refining Pool is too limited right now. You may have to wait for a while. The earliest you can wait is estimated to be half a year."
Princess Qinghua looked unhappy, as if she had been scolded.
Seeing this, Chen Lin didn't say anything and could only nod in agreement.
But half a year is nothing. The day of welcoming the spirits has just passed, and the so-called gods have not discovered the existence of an outsider like him, so he can stay in this interface with peace of mind.
He used to be worried about the problem of cultivation, but now there are circumnavigable treasures here, and it is very likely that this is the origin of such treasures. So he is no longer anxious. He must take this opportunity to complete the qualitative change of his soul and completely turn into a Gintama!
Otherwise, once you leave here, it will be difficult to find such an opportunity again.
After returning to his residence in the side courtyard, Chen Lin began to check the task list of Wanwu Pavilion.
After looking for a while, Chen Lin's brows slowly frowned.
The tasks here are all extraordinary. They are either about finding a disappeared secret place, hunting some strange creatures, or even capturing detour beasts. A small detour only gives one point, while a one-armed detour gives one hundred points.
According to what she asked Lvliu, the price of the One-Armed Detour sold by Wanwu Pavilion is 200 points!
Buy and sell, double the profit!
But even so, there are still many people with magical powers willing to do these tasks, because the treasures of the Pavilion of All Things are the most complete. According to the other party, except for the treasury of the Soul Kingdom Palace, there is no place in the world with more and more complete treasures than their Pavilion of All Things!
Some of the opponent's rare treasures can only be exchanged for points. If you want to get them, you have to take the initiative to hand over the knife and let others slaughter you.
After reading the entire task list, Chen Lin stroked his chin and began to think.
Among these tasks, there is one that is suitable for him, and that is alchemy!
The cultivation system in this world is different. There is no concept of elixir at all, and the elixirs used by cultivators have no effect on the people here.
But although there are no pills here, there is "medicine liquid".
When he was in the Tou Kingdom, he discovered that the most common medicines were those that nourished and strengthened the life rope, as well as those that strengthened supernatural powers. But in this Hun Kingdom, the most common medicines were those that nourished the soul.
The medicinal liquid is the initial form of the elixir, and its effect is definitely not as good as the elixir. If he takes out the Soul Refining Pill, it will definitely be very popular, and the Pavilion of All Things will definitely be willing to purchase it.
However, there are no elixirs in this world, and it would be too conspicuous if he took them out directly. He didn't know if it would cause trouble.
Of course, there are many benefits as well.
Not only can he quickly acquire a large amount of resources, but he can also increase his visibility and build himself into an image of a super 'medicine master'. This way, he would not be suspected when he purchased a large number of one-armed circumambulators or higher-level circumambulators.
If his fame reaches a certain level, someone might even take the initiative to send him high-level circumnavigating beasts. After all, the effect of the Soul Refining Pill is of great benefit to the people of Soul Country, and no one can resist the temptation.
No matter what others say, Wanwu Pavilion will find him first and ask for a monopoly on this elixir. By then, as long as the other party has eight arms to bypass it, he will be able to get it.
But after thinking for a while, Chen Lin shook his head.
This matter cannot be taken lightly and must be carefully considered before making a decision.
The most important thing is to first find out the combat power of the high-end masters here. If it is within the tolerance range of her and Xiaocao, then they can give it a try. If there is an unmatched strong man, then don't take the risk.
After making the decision, Chen Lin no longer thought about it, but went out for a stroll every day with Lvliu, and inquired about the information he wanted.
During this time, he used the excuse of going to see the scenery outside to knock Lvliu unconscious, and took the opportunity to refine the one-armed circumvention into a soul-refining pill.
Perhaps it was because he was already very skilled in refining the Soul Refining Pill, so the break in the manifested line of destiny was very small. He even did not use the help of the Fortune Fish and was able to correct failure into success, which made him very happy.
The attitude of the golden toad in the Duyun Lake is unclear, so it is better not to go there if you can, so you have to use the luck fish sparingly.
Time flies, and half a year has passed in the blink of an eye.
There was no information from Princess Qinghua yet, which made Chen Lin a little anxious, but there was nothing he could do. After getting to know her for such a long time, he also realized that the spot in the Soul Refining Pool was indeed precious and not something that could be obtained just by wanting it.
Even the royal children could not use them all, let alone him, an outsider.
At the beginning, Princess Qinghua made such a solemn vow because she thought that she would be able to merge her spirits successfully and advance to the Gintama. By then, her status would increase dramatically and her say would naturally be different, so it would be easy for her to ask for a spot.
But if the fusion of spirits fails, all is over.
This is because he got his magical power treasure box, and he was lucky enough to get a rare and great magical power. Otherwise, he would be reprimanded and his position would be lost.
Therefore, it is uncertain whether the other party can get this quota. He cannot rely on one thing and must find another way.
