The Story Never Ends

A while later, Davion came out of the auction house with a ring on his finger. The ring was black in color with strange patterns. Indeed, this is the space ring that he bought after spending 500 low-grade spirit stones. He got 1000 low-grade spirit stones after exchanging all the demon cores and some important parts of those beasts that he had collected. He didn't even know that the thunderwolf beast was in an early Qi refining state, swap python and one-eyed eagle were in middle Qi refining state and the flameape was in late Qi refining state. He got 100, 125, and 175 spirit stones for each of those beasts. He also exchanged the remaining materials for gold which can be used as mortal currency.

"So, in this world, 100 low-grade spirit stones make 1 middle-grade spirit stone and 100 middle-grade spirit stones make 1 high-grade spirit stone. I really wanted to auction those items, but in the novels that I used to read in my previous life, the main character always used to get in trouble during the auction. I am not strong now. I should be more low profile." thinking about these things Davion finally came to a weapon shop.

"I have no weapons to protect myself. Let's hope that I can find some good weapons here. The world of cultivation is too dangerous. Strong eat the weak. I should be careful."

"Hello! young man, what do you want?" As soon as Davion entered the shop, he heard a voice calling out from behind. When he turned back, he saw a person of only 3 feet with a long beard touching the floor. "Damn, is this a dwarf?" It is the first time Davion seeing a person from another race.

Seeing the human getting shocked by his appearance, the dwarf laughed out loud, "Are you new here? You haven't seen any other person than humans?"

"Yes, it is really my first time. Can you please show me your best weapons?" asked Davion.

The dwarf came aside and said, "These are the best weapons that I created. They are all made from pieces of rare metals that I found 20 years ago. It won't break even when fighting against a demon beast."

Davion came and looked at those weapons. There were two swords, a blade, and a spear. He picked up a sword and tried infusing his spiritual power but nothing happened. Seeing this he became disappointed and asked," Why did nothing happen? Is it not a weapon used by a cultivator?"

"No, how could I make those and sell these weapons here. You can only find those weapons in the auction house. But they are also rare and can only be made by higher level cultivators. You can find many of them only in those sects. We only make normal weapons." replied the dwarf.

"Is that so? It looks like I am too greedy" Davion thought. So, he made up his decision to purchase the sword. He also purchased leather armor made from elephant skin and a bow with a couple of arrows. After making sure everything was purchased, he left the shop.

"It is getting darker, looks like I need to find an inn to rest."

While moving forward a couple of minutes he saw an old book store. The shop looked like it could collapse at any time. "What type of shop is this? Don't tell me this might be a store containing legendary immortal exercises as those in the novels."

Thinking about this Davion entered the shop. There was a large number of books kept in the store. An old woman was reading a book in a corner. She didn't even pay any attention to Davion who came. Davion didn't mind her and slowly started to look for books. After looking for some time he found out these books don't contain any information about cultivators or any immortal exercises he thought. So, he directly asked the old woman," Old lady, do you have any books containing information about cultivators?"

"No, I don't." replied the old lady.

"My God, how could I have been so fooled to think that this place could have those?" thought Davion and when he was about to leave the shop, the old lady's reply made him stop in his tracks.

Seeing the young man was about to leave she immediately said "But I do have some legendary immortal exercises."

"What!!!" Davion was completely shocked.

"You must be fortunate enough to come here, young man. Nobody wants to enter this shop but you came. So, this might be fate." saying this, the old lady went to her table, used a key to open a drawer under her table, and took out two manuals.

"These are the exercises my husband used to practice before he left me." Saying this she started to shed some tears and kept those manuals on the table.

Seeing this Davion got emotional and wanted to console her but he didn't know what to say. So, he just stared at those manuals.. One of the manual names was "Mind Eye Technique" and the other was "Iron Cloth Body".
