Chapter 198: More Putty

Each sword seemed to carry an invisible magnetic force. When her fingers touched one sword, the other three swords would slowly float up with her movements.
However, these four swords occupied four different positions.
The joy in Su’s eyes became even stronger. Her hands kept forming sword seals, and the four swords danced around her like a lantern.
“It’s a masterpiece!” The shop manager praised. “The four swords combined into one, able to attack and defend, truly exquisite beyond compare! If it can be tempered more, the power of this sword will reach an unimaginable level!”
Li Ming looked exhausted, but he was in high spirits. Once the sword embryo was formed, he felt much more relaxed.
“Good, I didn’t disappoint you. I’ll be leaving now.”
“Li Ming, please wait!” Su suddenly said. “I didn’t do anything during the Sword-Testing Conference, but you kept your promise and helped me refine the Sword Embryo. I’m extremely grateful, so I’ll give this Moonlight Flowing
Death to you!”
Su’s eyes were very sincere. She liked these four swords.
Of course, Li Ming accepted it without hesitation. Moonlight Flowing Death was a treasure! “In that case, I’ll accept it,” he took the gift and said sanctimoniously.
He thought of something and turned to look at the manager. “I have something here. Can you take a look for me?”
“Of course!” The manager hurriedly replied. If it was before, they would not dare to underestimate Li Ming.
When he refined four sword bases, Li Ming’s artifact refinement skills immediately made him look at him in a new light. The manager and the others were businessmen after all, and they were in the magical treasures business. How could they dare to offend a cultivator with a bright future and who was proficient in artifact refinement?
Li Ming flipped his hand and took out the wooden box from his storage space.
He opened the box and showed a jade bottle inside.
Seeing Li Ming’s seriousness, the two of them became even more curious about the treasure he took out.
Li Ming handed over the jade bottle. “This thing isn’t in the five elements, but I don’t know what it is. Can you help me take a look?”
“Not in the five elements?” Su’s expression changed slightly.
The manager’s expression also changed, but he still kept a straight face. A person’s vision is the most important criterion to measure a person’s strength. He did not want to embarrass this person.
He carefully opened the bottle cap and poured the powder into a white disk.
After examining it for a moment, he said solemnly, “I can’t tell what this thing is either, but it’s definitely not something from the five elements. It doesn’t look like a single material, but more like a mixture of several materials. It’s very strange.”
He just felt that it was a little strange. It was already very difficult to find something that did not contain the five elements, let alone such a complicated composition.
Li Ming was stunned. He suddenly remembered that the materials he had thrown into the five-colored pagoda were of various types. The composition of the powder was probably very complicated. He could not help but look at the shopkeeper in a new light.
“I wonder how much this thing is worth?”
“It’s hard to decide.” The manager shook his head. “If it’s a material, I can give you a reasonable price. However, the composition of this thing is very complicated. It should have some special effect. Or maybe it’s used to refine a flying sword instead of using materials with the five elements. If you use it to refine a flying sword, you can increase the quality of the flying sword.”
“If I can add this thing before refining the four sword embryos, the quality will be greatly improved,” he said in a deep voice as he looked at the four flying swords floating in front of Su.
A trace of unwillingness flashed in Su’s eyes, but now that the sword embryo’s formation was complete, she didn’t say anything.
Li Ming’s interest was piqued. “Not of the five elements but can increase the quality of the flying sword? I’ve never heard of it.”
Seeing Li Ming’s interest, the manager smiled and said, “If it’s not something of the five elements, it’s hard to come by and expensive. Moreover, the materials are different, so the effects are different. However, they have one thing in common, and that is, they have a great affinity for spiritual energy, especially for spiritual energy that doesn’t have many attributes.”
“This isn’t good for an itinerant cultivator who specializes in the power of the five elements, but for us sword cultivators, it’s a great thing. Most of the sword cultivation in this world is not of the five elements.’
He originally wanted to say that most of the Five Elements Sword Techniques were useless, but he suddenly remembered that Li Ming cultivated the Five Elements Sword Techniques, so he immediately changed his words.
When Li Ming heard this, he was immediately interested. As a sword disciple, he immediately understood the value of the putty in his hand.
“If it’s only used to refine flying swords, can you give me an estimate?” Li Ming said.
“Two hundred spirit stones of the third-grade.”
“Three hundred spirit stones of the third-grade. I wonder if Young Master Li can give this to me?” Su suddenly asked. Having interacted with Li Ming a few times, she had some understanding of his personality.
Although this guy was cunning and difficult to fool, as long as there were enough benefits, he could still be persuaded.
“Good!” Li Ming agreed without thinking.
Three third-grade hundred spirit stones had already exceeded his mental limit. Moreover, the putty was extracted from the five-colored pagoda and could be easily obtained.
Su took out the spirit stones and handed them to Li Ming.
With these spirit stones, Li Ming felt a lot more at ease. He couldn’t help but sigh. It was true that people had to lower their heads under other people’s eaves.
Although three hundred third-grade spirit stones were not a large number, it was not a small amount. He could only buy one item at the Hundred Treasure Flying Pavilion.
Li Ming could only leave reluctantly. Although the things in the Hundred Treasure Flying Pavilion were good, not everyone could afford it.
His target was those merchants with relatively low prices, like Meng Ran.
Among the people that Li Ming knew, Fu Dong was considered one of the top figures. He had a wide network and could often obtain materials that were difficult to find. However, when it came to a large number of materials, he did not have the slightest advantage.
Meng Ran had worked with Li Ming once before. The cooperation between the two of them was very pleasant.
Meng Ran was stunned when he saw Li Ming. Then, he smiled. “It’s my honor to have Young Master Li here!”
Li Ming was currently in the limelight. In the Heavenly Origin Supercontinent, he was in the limelight. Meng Ran’s attitude was also very humble.
“Boss Meng, do you think I’m too old?” Li Ming’s first sentence shocked Meng Ran, but Li Ming’s second sentence made him feel relieved. “Boss Meng, isn’t it too much to treat an old friend like this?! You can call me Little Li.’
It was no wonder Meng Ran was so nervous. Compared to the unknown in the past, Li Ming was already a famous figure in East Floating.
The Divine Will Sect was mysterious and unpredictable. No one knew their style of doing things, so outsiders were very careful in front of them..
