Chapter 383: 382, News

Having traveled for about a month and a half, Luo Shu and Lu Hanmo finally made it through No Return Forest. However, by this time, Luo Shu’s cultivation had fallen to the Foundation Establishment Late Stage.

"That must be Silver Fir City," Luo Shu said with a smile on her face as she looked at the majestic city in the distance. She finally saw hope.

"Definitely," a glint of joy sparkled in Lu Hanmo’s eyes as he lifted Luo Shu and hastened toward Silver Fir City.

Upon arriving at Silver Fir City, after asking a guard at the city gate for directions to the Red Plume Auction House, the two realized the enormity of Silver Fir City. Although they had already entered the area of Silver Fir City, reaching the Red Plume Auction House would take about a week’s journey.

As they entered Silver Fir City, they saw shops lining the streets and roads branching in all directions, giving them a sense of being in a prosperous age.

After walking for a while, Luo Shu spotted a Wishful Shop up ahead. She pulled Lu Hanmo toward the store, saying, "Let’s first exchange those Spirit Cores and furs for Spirit Stones." She had learned from her last encounter with Xiao Yao that Wishful Shop had an excellent reputation on Lan Star.

"Okay!" Lu Hanmo naturally had no objections to Luo Shu’s proposal. His only hope now was to find the Nascent Soul Fruit as soon as possible and help Shushu restore her cultivation quickly.

They entered the Wishful Shop, and a clerk at the Foundation Establishment Primary Stage immediately greeted them with a smile, "Welcome to Wishful Shop! How can I assist you today?"

"We’d like to exchange some Spirit Stones," Luo Shu told the clerk.

The clerk nodded with a smile, "Please follow me."

Soon, they were led by the clerk to a trading room on the second floor.

The trading room here was obviously much larger than the one in Fall Mountain Town.

In the spacious trading room, there were more than a dozen transaction counters, each with a long line queued in front of it—clear evidence of Wishful Shop’s thriving business.

The two chose a line and queued up, noting that most of the cultivators ahead were exchanging Spirit Beast Cores and various herbs and materials. However, these materials did not fetch a high exchange rate. Since they were heading to the auction house, insufficient Spirit Stones would definitely be an issue.

However, since they were currently in the True Cultivation World, taking out valuable items would undoubtedly attract unwanted trouble. After discussing it, they decided to save the better items for the auction house.

After about ten minutes, it was finally Luo Shu and Lu Hanmo’s turn.

Lu Hanmo took out a Storage Bag and handed it over to the staff member.

The staff member accepted the Storage Bag, scanned it with their Divine Sense, then passed it to another staff member to verify and count the contents.

"This time, you’re exchanging 361 Level One Spirit Beast Furs and Spirit Cores, 243 Second-level Spirit Beast Furs and Spirit Cores, 92 Third-Level Spirit Beast Furs and Spirit Cores, and nine stalks of Condensation Dew Grass, Second-level..." The staff member checked the items Luo Shu and Lu Hanmo were exchanging with them one by one.

After confirming with Luo Shu and Lu Hanmo, the staff member said, "In total, these items can be exchanged for 230,000 Top-Quality Spirit Stones. Do you have any objections?"

"None!" Luo Shu replied. The price offered by Wishful Shop was indeed quite fair.

Seeing no objections from them, the staff member took out a Storage Bag and handed it to them, "Here are the Spirit Stones, please verify the amount."

Lu Hanmo took the Storage Bag, scanned it with his Divine Sense, confirmed it was correct, then nodded and handed the Storage Bag to Luo Shu.

"May I assist you with anything else?" the staff member asked with a smile.

"No, thank you!" Luo Shu smiled and thanked them before she and Lu Hanmo left Wishful Shop.

As soon as they left Wishful Shop, they felt they were being followed.

Giving each other a glance, they leisurely headed toward a beast carriage rental shop. They didn’t have any time to waste; all their thoughts were focused on the Nascent Soul Fruit. They didn’t even know if the Red Plume Auction House would have the Nascent Soul Fruit for auction.

Luo Shu and Lu Hanmo rented the fastest beast carriage. Just as they were about to board it, the Golden Core Mid Stage cultivator who was following them couldn’t hold back any longer and approached them, "Fellow daoists, please wait!"

"What is it?" Lu Hanmo asked flatly, his powerful demeanor not angry but impressive, commanding respect.

"Here’s the thing—I’ve observed that this daoist friend seems to have been affected by the pollen of the Nascent Soul Fruit. I know where to find some. Just wondering if you two are willing to trust me?" the Golden Core Mid Stage Cultivator asked with a smile.

"Why should we trust you?" Lu Hanmo asked bluntly. He might have trusted the man if he had approached them openly and directly from the start.

The Golden Core Mid Stage Cultivator didn’t expect Lu Hanmo to be so direct and was somewhat embarrassed, "I mean well."

"State your terms," Lu Hanmo said. He didn’t want to miss any chances. Even if the message was false, it still represented a ray of hope for him.

"Ten Top-Quality Spirit Stones," the Golden Core Mid Stage Cultivator held up both hands. Seeing how straightforward the other party was, he thought he might as well be direct himself.

"Let’s get on the carriage," Lu Hanmo said, turning to Luo Shu.

Luo Shu smiled and nodded in agreement.

"Five!" Seeing that Lu Hanmo and Luo Shu were unmoved, the Golden Core Mid Stage Cultivator grit his teeth and said, "Three should do, right?"

Lu Hanmo took out three Top-Quality Spirit Stones and handed them to the Golden Core Mid Stage Cultivator, "Speak!" Since the man had come out to sell them information, he wasn’t likely to give up so easily.

The Golden Core Mid Stage Cultivator received the Spirit Stones and said with a smile, "The Blood Sea Domain Ruins are about to open. I’ve heard that not only are there Nascent Soul Fruits there, but other treasures too. Here’s a map, are you interested?" He took out a map and waved it in front of Luo Shu and Lu Hanmo.

Luo Shu and Lu Hanmo exchanged a glance and stepped onto the carriage. Regardless of whether the information was true, they still planned to first visit the Red Plume Auction House. If they could obtain the Nascent Soul Fruit even a day earlier, that would be the best outcome. As for the map to the Blood Sea Domain Ruins, it shouldn’t be too difficult to acquire.

Not long after the beast carriage departed, Luo Shu’s communication talisman vibrated. She took it out to see that it was Yun Han contacting her and activated the talisman, "Yun Han!"

"Luo Shu, Xiao Yao told me you were affected by the pollen of the Nascent Soul Fruit. How are you now?" Yun Han’s concerned voice came from the communication talisman.
