Monarch of Time

Chapter 239: Finding the 'Purple wind ice fruit'

Although Liu Mei didn't know why Shun Long wanted to go to the 'Golden Exchange firm', she didn't choose to ask.

Instead, her hands were still wrapped around his waist as the 2 of them toured through the western part of the Heaven's Dome city.

As always, carriages that were dragged by powerful magic beasts would fill the vast roads of the Heaven's Dome city at all times.

Shun Long would sometimes notice the pedestrians stealing a look at the 'Silver-winged panther king', who was walking neither too fast nor too slow.

A few minutes later, the black panther had arrived in front of a large, luxurious building, that seemed to have been created entirely from pure gold.

3 shining, eye-catching words, were written in black on top of the building

'Golden Exchange firm'

This was the headquarters of one of the largest powers in the Heaven's Dome city, and perhaps even the Night star continent's.

Of course, the 'Golden Exchange firm's' building wasn't made from pure gold. Instead, it was gold that had been processed by powerful formation masters for many years, before they engraved it with defensive runes, as well as many auxiliary runes that would make it more sturdy.

There was a rumor going around in the Heaven's Dome city, that the walls of the 'Golden Exchange firm' were even sturdier than the Shengtian dynasty's palace walls.

Without any delay, the black panther walked towards the 'Golden Exchange firm's' entrance.

The 10 golden-armored Nascent soul stage guards who were standing at the entrance, felt some apprehension after sensing the black panther's peak rank 5 strength.

After all, although they had seen peak rank 5 magic beasts enter the 'Golden Exchange firm' before, these beasts were always extremely rare.

But of course, unless someone broke the rules by trying to steal or they started a fight, the guards wouldn't do anything to stop them from entering inside. 

A sea of people appeared in Shun Long's and Liu Mei's eyes as soon as they passed through the 'Golden Exchange firm's' gates.

The interior of the 'Golden Exchange firm's' was very easy to navigate through.

The counters and the private rooms each had a sign above them, indicating what was inside each room and counter respectively.

Shun Long and Liu Mei walked on foot, with the black panther following behind them, as they searched for counters and rooms that sold medicinal herbs.

The 'Golden Exchange firm' had 3 rooms dedicated to alchemy, that sold both medicinal herbs as well as parts of powerful magic beasts.

Soon, Shun Long and Liu Mei entered one of the 3 rooms that were selling these ingredients.

After searching through the first room however, Shun Long didn't seem to have found what he was looking for, and just a few breaths of time later he exited it as he continued towards the second.

The first room seemed to only contain rank 1 and rank 2 medicinal herbs, and neither of them was particularly attractive to Shun Long's eyes.

As for the rank 1 and rank 2 magic beasts, they were even worse off in Shun Long's eyes.

The second room instead contained rank 3, along with a few rank 4 medicinal herbs, while the corpses of magic beasts seemed to have been better than the previous room.

Although Shun Long wasn't interested in the rank 3 herbs, he did purchase 2 rank 4 medicinal herbs for 17.000 and 17.500 low-grade spirit stones each, before he moved to the last room.

Much fewer people were inside this room compared to the previous 2, while Shun Long noticed that every single medicinal ingredient in this room was at least at the rank 4.

There was even a single rank 5 herb that Shun Long instantly recognized as the 'Dreamy ash flower'.

Although the flower was priced at 300.000 low-grade spirit stones, Shun Long didn't hesitate to purchase it.

The use of the rank 5 'Dreamy ash flower', was mostly to grind it to dust and apply it to a person who is suffering from mental illnesses. 

It could immediately expel the demons in a cultivator's heart, and help them restore clarity of their mind.

However, Shun Long also had another use of this flower.

After paying 300.000 low-grade spirit stones for the 'Dreamy ash flower', Shun Long also purchased a dozen more rank 4 medicinal herbs for almost 400.000 low-grade spirit stones, when his eyes were suddenly focused on a ruby-colored case at the far left of the room.

A purple-colored medicinal herb with stripped icy-blue lines was placed inside the jade case, which made Shun Long's heart, beat in excitement

''Rank 4 'Purple wind ice fruit'!''

Seeing Shun Long's reaction, Liu Mei turned her head towards Shun Long's field of vision, where the purple medicinal herb was placed.

Shun Long walked in front of the counter, and despite the high price of 170.000 low-grade spirit stones, he purchased the rank 4 'Purple wind ice fruit' and placed it in the 'Stone of Time'.

This was the last of the 3 main medicinal herbs that Shun Long needed, to refine the rank 4 'internal reconstruction pill'.

Now that he had already reached the peak of the third stage in the 'Monarch's Eternal body', as soon as he refined the rank 4 'Purple wind ice fruit' into the 'internal reconstruction pill', he would be able to enter the fourth stage of the 'Monarch's Eternal body'.

Shun Long hadn't expected to find the 'Purple wind ice fruit' in the 'Golden Exchange firm' today, since even the 'Alchemists' Guild' didn't seem to have one in stock, and had thought of putting up a mission in the 'Mercenaries' Association' if he had been unable to find it.

Of course, this didn't mean that the 'Golden Exchange firm' had more medicinal herbs than the 'Alchemists' Guild'. However, many mercenaries chose to sell the medicinal herbs that they found during their missions to the 'Golden Exchange firm', which was the reason that there were so many medicinal herbs for sale.

Of course, in front of the 'Alchemists' Guild's' herb garden, these 3 rooms were still nothing in comparison.

That garden was filled with top quality rank 4, as well as rank 5 medicinal herbs.

However, Jin Wenling had told Shun Long, that only after becoming a gold-grade alchemist of the guild would he be allowed to directly access these medicinal herbs.

In a way, this was still how the 'Alchemists' Guild' roped in the promising silver-grade alchemists as well.

After sweeping half the room clean from medicinal herbs, Shun Long had a satisfied look on his face, even though he had spent almost a million low-grade spirit stones in these herbs.

As for the magic beasts in the room, he didn't even take a single look at them.

Although there were 2 incomplete corpses of a pair of early rank 5 beasts, their beast cores had already been extracted, while the parts of their bodies that were still intact, weren't suitable for alchemy.

Although Shun Long had all the medicinal herbs that he needed, he didn't choose to enter seclusion and advance to the fourth stage of the 'Monarch's Eternal body' right now.

Instead, he and Liu Mei got on the black panther's back, as they headed towards the entrance of the 'Golden Exchange firm'.

ROAR

As soon as they arrived at the entrance of the firm however, Shun Long and Liu Mei were startled for a moment, when a furious roar was heard behind them.

The people at the entrance of the 'Golden Exchange firm', along with the 10 Nascent Soul stage guards were startled as well.

The crowd immediately scurried away from the entrance when they heard this roar, as everyone was terrified to the core.

The moment that the black panther heard this roar, it almost unconsciously turned around, and let out a terrifying roar in response.
