Now reading: Chapter 152: What is called Great Wealth and Arrogance1 from The First Immortal of Destiny, a Eastern novel by Walking alone in loneliness.

Shen Mo couldn’t help but take another glance at the Flying Swords that Geng Zheng had brought out.

This man had a middle-grade profound level Flying Sword for his control, and in battle, he would use a massive broadsword, which had unfortunately been destroyed in Shen Mo’s The Big Dipper Array.

In addition to that, he had now taken out a slender, dark green Flying Sword from his Universe Bag.

He already had three middle-grade profound level Flying Swords alone.

Unexpectedly, this guy with thick eyebrows and large eyes was a second-generation immortal from a wealthy clan.

Upon witnessing this, Shen Mo opened his own Universe Bag.

"I bid five pounds of Ghost Tear, two Soul Condensation Stones, ten liters of Demon Spirit Water... a low-grade profound level magic artifact, the Soul Snatching Spear, and six various low-grade profound level Flying Swords..."

Pieces of Nether Mines and magic artifacts were continually presented in front of everyone.

The forr were mostly obtained through the Spirit Storage Rat’s natural gift for finding Nether Mines.

The latter were relics left behind by cultivators who had perished to the Ghost Bride.

The top quality items had been taken by Shen Mo and Chen ngze, and what was left were all common goods.

Yet, even so, the sheer quantity was astounding.

If sold in the Market, the items would be worth thousands of low-grade Spirit Stones.

That bid directly surpassed Geng Zheng’s!

Seeing this, Chen ngze, Jiang Yingying, and Peng Chenshu, like Li Yu, all chose to give up bidding for the Green-skinned Ghost’s ghost skin!

After all, with a thousand low-grade Spirit Stones, one could buy high-quality middle-grade inner armor.

Unless, after buying the strange green skin, one was willing to spend a large sum of money on other materials and search for a Grade III or higher Forgemaster to forge it into high-grade inner armor.

If handled this way, there might be so profit to be made.

Of course, the premise was that the Forgemaster found was reliable!

If not, one might end up using a lot of rare materials, only to face a failed Forging, losing even the clothes on one’s back!

All in all, Shen Mo’s bid was quite fair.

With the others receiving their share, every person could gain cultivation resources worth two hundred Spirit Stones!

"Brother Geng, please understand! My constitution is weak, so I want to use this green skin to forge a high-grade robe armor." Shen Mo cupped his fists towards Geng Zheng.

Your constitution is weak? Who are you trying to fool?

Geng Zheng’s mouth twitched, and he silently cursed Shen Mo.

Others might not know, but how could he not see clearly? In the previous fierce battle, he had struck Shen Mo several tis with his sword Qi, but never achieved the desired effect. It was enough to infer that this Junior Brother Shen of the Riverside Sect had cultivated a very high-level external magic, and his attainnt wasn’t low, making him comparable to a demonic beast! And yet, he had the audacity to claim his constitution was weak?

It wasn’t just Geng Zheng; even Chen ngze rolled her eyes when she heard him.

In her eyes, after advancing to the Qi Gathering Realm, Shen Mo’s strength began to soar! He had various extraordinary techniques, which even she felt inferior to. There was only one problem. His character was too cautious and risk-averse, placing too much importance on his own safety. He had clearly cultivated exceptional defensive external magic, yet when the spoils from the cultivators killed by the Ghost Bride were being divided, the first thing he took was inner armor. Besides, he also collected the black coffins belonging to the five disciples of the Ghost Corpse School. He said that the materials were quite good, and when he had ti, he could add so rare spirit gold, lt it, and forge it into a large coffin. In extre conditions, one could hide in the coffin to save one’s life. And now he had his eyes on the ghost skin of the Green-skinned Fierce Ghost, willing to spend heavily for it!

Sotis, Chen ngze wondered.

If Shen Mo didn’t fight back and only used all his protective techniques like talismans, inner armor, and external magic, could she inflict any damage on him if she went all out? Previously, she might have barely managed to do it. But once Shen Mo crafted the ghost skin of the Green-skinned Fierce Ghost into inner armor or a Daoist robe, unless she used the trump card she had prepared for revenge, it would be tough to cause him any harm, even if she exhausted all her Mana using her usual combat thods!

Shen Mo had no idea how these two were criticizing him in their hearts. Even if he knew, he probably wouldn’t care.

At this mont, he was happily contemplating his own defense system.

The outermost layer will consist of Grade II talismans, like the Earth Prison Talisman and the Wind Wall Talisman, which can mitigate so of the attacks. Next will be the nurous Soul Generals on the Soul Refining Flag. If I can refine a Green-skinned Ghost, that would naturally be best. Even if I can’t achieve that, I’ll still select a tough and resilient demonic beast, an external cultivator, or a Soul Ghost as a at shield to take hits for . A ghost would still be the best choice. Otherwise, according to the characteristics of the Soul Refining Flag, if a demonic beast or a cultivator is turned into a Soul General, its physical resilience will be weakened, while ghosts can make the transition perfectly. For the inner layer, the Dragon Sparrow Sword, commanded by the Shangqing Swordplay, can emit three feet of sword Qi, enough for self-defense. I’ll be wearing inner armor and possess an excellent physique forged by the Dragon Elephant Blood Fiend Body technique. After successfully bidding for this ghost skin, I can tailor it into a green robe. Wearing it won’t attract attention and it will provide strong defense. Only the defense of my soul is a weak point. Regrettably, the middle-grade profound level magic, the Soul Contemplation Sutra, is indeed challenging to cultivate. So far, I haven’t yet been able to visualize and condense the destined Soul Phase, ’Fiery Sun.’ Right now, in a place filled with such a dense ghostly aura, where I can’t see the sun, moon, or Stars, there’s naturally no way to practice this Soul Magic.

"I’ll add five Grade III talismans!"

Geng Zheng’s loud voice pulled Shen Mo’s attention back.

The Geng Clan was adept at making talismans, so Geng Zheng had a multitude of Grade III talismans. However, he had used quite a few due to his stubbornness in "pursuing" Shen Mo and getting beaten up in the process.

Currently, he only had five Grade III talismans left in his Universe Bag.

Adding up the Spirit Stones, Flying Swords, talismans, and other items, his bid barely exceeded Shen Mo’s.

Of course, his items were also superior in quality. After all, what Shen Mo had brought out were "scraps" he had picked up and didn’t value.

"Sigh... Brother Geng, why must you insist?"

Shen Mo shook his head and opened his Universe Bag again.

Under the dumbfounded gazes of Geng Zheng, Jiang Yingying, and the others, many more ores, spirit gold, and other items were continuously taken out and placed in front of Shen Mo.

"And ten Grade II Elixirs each: Qi Coalescing Pills, Soul Nurturing Pills, and Demon Suppressing Pills..."

"All of these are of perfect quality or above. Senior Sister Jiang, you may inspect them."

"One hundred Grade I Elixirs, all of exceptional quality!"

"Counting all these cultivation resources, I wonder if it’s enough to buy this ghost skin?"

How could it possibly not be enough? Even if Jiang Yingying wanted to favor her own junior brother, she couldn’t bring herself to say it wasn’t. Never mind buying the ghost skin; he could even buy its soul core as well!

Geng Zheng silently retrieved the Spirit Stones, Flying Swords, and other items in front of him. His gaze towards Shen Mo was sowhat complex.

He had always prided himself on being wealthy. Now, he finally understood that there was always soone better out there!

Jiang Yingying even sent a voice transmission to Chen ngze, her tone full of surprise, "Junior Sister Chen, is this Junior Brother Shen the heir of so wealthy clan?"

A normal early-stage Qi Gathering Realm cultivator would struggle to produce even a hundred Spirit Stones, and that too after much hesitation. Shen Mo, however, took out cultivation resources worth nearly fifteen to sixteen hundred Spirit Stones at once, without even batting an eye. Therefore, Jiang Yingying suspected that he was either the heir of a wealthy immortal clan or the most favored Direct Disciple of so influential figure in the Riverside Sect!

Chen ngze, however, just shook her head in confusion.

I want to know too!
