Beastmaster of the Ages - Chapter 7445

Chapter 7359: Super Star Dao Crystal

During the visit, Li Chaoxi was in high spirits.

She first found a small Daoist sword with a golden body and golden carvings.

This sword was originally made for hairpins, but its grade was very high, reaching the Lesser Light level, which was indeed a bit extravagant for an ornament.

But Li Chaoxi was very interested. She smiled and said to Li Tianming, “Tianming, do you think this looks good as a hairpin?” “It looks good, it suits you very well,” Li Tianming said after

only glancing at it.

“Sigh, I feel like you didn’t even look closely, never mind.” Li Chaoxi was about to scold Li Tianming when her gaze was immediately drawn to something else. She saw a black and gold robe and practically dragged Li Tianming over. Her eyes lit up as she said, “This feels very suitable for you, especially for your tall and slender figure.”

Li Tianming glanced at it and indeed it was very good; it was even a Daoist treasure of the Lesser Light level, with some Daoist patterns engraved that could provide defensive capabilities.

But Li Tianming still shook his head and said, “Senior Sister Chaoxi, I don’t need any defensive Dao treasures.”

“Dao treasures? This is a piece of clothing! It’s enough that it looks good.” Li Chaoxi frowned slightly, put her hands on her hips, and said, “You, you can’t even dress yourself up, how come so many women are interested in you?”

“Hehe, maybe it’s because I’m born with good looks.” Li Tianming smiled and said perfunctorily.

“Anyway, now that you’ve come out with me, I can’t let you go back looking the same. Don’t forget that you’re my husband now, you have to have that aloof, noble, and genius image to make me look good.” Li Chaoxi smiled and winked.

At this moment, Li Tianming suddenly became a little curious, “Senior Sister Chaoxi, if we want to buy things here, what will we use to pay? The Primordial Dao shouldn’t work, right?”

“Of course not.” Li Chaoxi said with a wry smile, “Think about it, the pinnacle of the Primordial Gods is only the Heavenly Venerable, what kind of powerful people come and go here? So how could the Primordial Dao possibly work?”

“So, what do we use to buy things here?” Li Tianming asked humbly.

“Superstar Dao Crystal,” Li Chaoxi said slowly, continuing before Li Tianming could react, “is a high-level universal currency in the Superstar Republic, valid throughout its territory.”

“What about the ‘Dao Crystals’ I encountered during my previous cultivation? Those don’t work either?” Li Tianming asked again.

“No,” Li Chaoxi shook his head decisively, “Ordinary Dao Crystals aren’t even eligible for exchange. Nobody wants them here; they’re worthless.”

“I see…” Li Tianming said thoughtfully.

Although Li Tianming had already guessed this, he was still curious about Superstar Dao Crystals, especially since this was his first time learning about them.

At this moment, Li Tianming secretly speculated that perhaps this special Dao Crystal would be useful to Zi Zhen, and perhaps even more useful than previous resources.

After all, Zi Zhen wasn’t picky about cultivation resources; as long as a resource could provide him with power, he would use it, regardless of whether it was suitable.

“Little Li, now that we have to spend this money, doesn’t that mean we’re penniless and have no money left?” Sui Shenyao said with slight disappointment. “I thought we were rich emperors after conquering so many star systems.”

“Yaoyao, don’t forget, we still have treasures. So many Dao treasures can probably be exchanged for a lot of this currency. As long as there are people in the world who need Dao treasures, we won’t have trouble selling them; it’s just a matter of price.” Li Tianming replied with a smile in his heart.

“That’s right! Then we’re still quite powerful!” Sui Shenyao said happily again.

Li Tianming and Li Chaoxi continued to stroll through the Burning Heaven Universe Street, looking at the items on the various luxurious displays.

Although Li Chaoxi strongly recommended that Li Tianming wear the black and gold robe, Li Tianming still refused, for the same reason: he didn’t need it.

In fact, as long as An Ning was by his side, Li Tianming didn’t need any defensive Dao treasures at all, since none of them could compare to the Taiyi Tower.

In addition, with An Ning, the Taiyi Mountain Spirit, in control, the Taiyi Tower could also transform into various forms, such as the armor Li Tianming was wearing.

Thus, there was even less need for luxurious clothing.

Li Chaoxi abandoned the gold and black hairpin, wandered around for a few moments, and then found a wooden hairpin with blooming flowers.

This hairpin was full of life, as if it might sprout and regenerate at any moment, returning to its original form.

Li Chaoxi was somewhat attracted, her eyes almost glued to the display stand.

At this moment, on one side of the display stand, there was a woman with a gentle smile, dressed in palace attire.

This person seemed to be there to greet customers, but Li Tianming rarely saw such people elsewhere. “

Perhaps those things are too simple, not rare, and not worth special service,” Li Tianming thought to himself. Seeing that Li Chaoxi’s gaze was drawn to it, the woman in palace attire immediately smiled broadly and said, “This guest has a truly discerning eye, spotting the ‘Heavenly Heart Peach Blossom’ branch hairpin at a glance. This is a rare treasure; you must have your young master buy one for you. Besides being beautiful, it will also bring you peace and safety.” “Heavenly Heart Peach Blossom? What is that?” Li Tianming asked curiously. The woman in palace attire’s expression changed slightly, her enthusiasm visibly diminishing, but she still patiently smiled and said, “This is a wooden hairpin forged from the branches of an extremely powerful Dao plant among the Light-grade beings—’Heavenly Heart Peach Blossom.’ Besides its abundant blossoms and sweet fragrance reminiscent of butterflies and bees, it can also grant people from other systems abilities similar to those of an Infinite Beast Master!” Li Chaoxi examined it carefully, then suddenly looked up and asked, “So, it can be used in battle, making it work for me like a living Dao plant?” “Yes, just as you understand it. It can be seen as a tamed Dao plant, but its actual combat power… is far from its full strength. It’s probably only at the Saint Emperor level,” the woman in palace attire said with a smile. “Even at the Saint Emperor level, it would be very useful to me at this stage…” Li Chaoxi said thoughtfully. “Although I will eventually surpass that realm, for the sake of the Ten Thousand Sects Emperor War, if this item can become my aid, it wouldn’t be bad. The benefits of achieving good results might be worth more than this money!” Of course, she said this almost exclusively to Li Tianming, without letting the woman in palace attire hear. Although she didn’t hear, she could tell something from the strength and age of Li Tianming and the other woman. So the woman in palace attire pressed her advantage, “I think you’re here to participate in that Ten Thousand Sects Emperor War, right? Spending this little bit of money to achieve good results is a sure win. If you don’t buy it, someone else will, and it could become a tool to deal with you, wouldn’t you agree? Besides, this Heavenly Heart Peach Blossom is also quite nice as decoration, very suitable for a young lady like you. I think even if it’s not used for combat, it’s still a worthwhile investment…” “Young Master, would you like to consider it?” The woman in palace attire looked at Li Tianming, her eyes hinting. “Shopkeeper, how many Dao Crystals can I buy this?” Li Tianming also thought this item was quite good. Although Li Chaoxi was interested, he casually asked about the price.

“Eight hundred Super Star Dao Crystals will allow you to take the ‘Heavenly Heart Peach Blossom’ home,” the woman in palace attire said with a bow.

“Alright! I’ll take it,” Li Chaoxi said directly, looking away from the display stand.

“Young master, eight hundred Super Star Dao Crystals will suffice,” the woman in palace attire said, still bowing slightly to Li Tianming.

“Dao Crystals? I don’t have any,” Li Tianming said with a slight smile, slightly taken aback.

Only then did Li Tianming realize that the other party thought he was going to buy something for Li Chaoxi.

“No Dao Crystals?” The woman in palace attire was also stunned, her voice rising slightly in excitement.

At this moment, it attracted the attention of passersby, including many powerful young people.

“Who is this guy? He doesn’t even have Super Star Dao Crystals in the Burning Heaven Universe Street.”

“With this level of skill, he’s trying to pursue women. If I were to fall for someone like that, I’d rather kill myself.”

“He looks like he’s from the outer regions, doesn’t know anything, just a country bumpkin.”

Countless people pointed and whispered, swarming in like bees, leaving Li Tianming speechless.

“It’s not like I’m really trying to get something for free, can’t I at least get my facts straight?” Li Tianming thought to himself.

“Do these people have such a big problem with people from the Outer Regions? Is it a crime to not have Dao Crystals?” Sui Shenyao asked, puzzled.

At this moment, Li Chaoxi stepped forward and stood slightly ahead of Li Tianming, smiling slightly, “I’ll pay for the Super Star Dao Crystals myself.”

This woman in palace attire had initially been quite enthusiastic towards Li Tianming, but she hadn’t expected to be met with such a poor person.

Although she didn’t show it too obviously, it was clear that she was rolling her eyes at Li Tianming.

“Eight hundred Super Star Dao Crystals, a fair price.” The woman in palace attire held out her hand to Li Chaoxi, her expression indifferent, and then she said in a low voice, “People from the Outer Regions are indeed unsophisticated, they don’t even have Super Star Dao Crystals.”

Li Tianming knew the latter part of her sentence through Yin Chen, but he just smiled and didn’t take it to heart.

He still had to buy this, it wasn’t worth proving anything over such a small matter.

Then, Li Chaoxi took the Heavenly Peach Blossom hairpin from the other person’s hand and handed it to Li Tianming, smiling, “Put it on for me.”

The onlookers shook their heads, saying,

“So they’re just a country bumpkin and a poor boy from the frontier, no wonder.”

Li Chaoxi listened to the surrounding chatter, somewhat speechless but feeling there was no need to argue.

So, after Li Tianming personally put the hairpin on her, she pulled him away from the crowd around the shop.

“Sigh, it’s all my fault. I was so focused on introducing it to you that I forgot to prepare it for you.” After leading Li Tianming away, Li Chaoxi slapped her forehead, then took out a Sumeru Ring and handed it to him, saying, “Here, there are over ten thousand Super Star Dao Crystals. You can decide what you want to buy later.”

“Senior Sister Chaoxi, what are you doing? Are you really treating me like a kept man?” Li Tianming said, somewhat amused and exasperated.

“It’s nothing, just consider it helping a friend. You can pay me back when you have the money.” Li Chaoxi widened her eyes slightly, then blinked and smiled. “Of course, you don’t have to pay me back, after all, you’re still my husband’s brother.”

“No, these tens of thousands of Super Star Dao Crystals are too valuable. I’m very grateful for Senior Sister Chaoxi’s kindness, but I can’t accept them.” Li Tianming pushed his Sumeru Ring back and said.

“Then you’re not buying anything?” Li Chaoxi asked, puzzled.

“Buy, of course I’ll buy, but I have quite a few treasures on me. I can just exchange some at a pawnshop or something.” Li Tianming smiled and said.

“Hmm…” Li Chaoxi hesitated slightly, then nodded and said, “That’s fine too. If you need anything, you can come to me. It doesn’t matter how valuable it is, after all, we’ve been through thick and thin together. I even asked you for help in this Ten Thousand Sects Emperor War.”

“Of course.” Li Tianming smiled with relief.
