“Forty, middle-grade Spirit Stones.”

The stall owner seems to be a Foundation Establishment Cultivator around his youth. However, Wang Ba was not exactly sure about his realm.

He answered Wang Ba lazily and stopped talking.

Ihis price was far beyond Wang Ba’s expectations.

After all, he had previously haggled for a long time in the Taosheng Market and finally spent sixty middle-grade Spirit Stones.

Unexpectedly, the price here was so cheap.

However, Wang Ba did not show any over-eagerness. He asked calmly, “Fellow Daoist, do you have any other Mountain Moving Apes here?”

The youth Foundation Establishment Cultivator looked at Wang Ba with some surprise. Seeing that he indeed had interest, his expression turned slightly serious.

“Do you have any specific requirements? I do have a few more.”

Hearing this, Wang Ba’s heart was instantly stirred.

He had long thought about cultivating Mountain Moving Apes. After all, this race was good at both offense and defense, and had unique talents, it was just naturally of lower grade.

Once its grade was cultivated, it would definitely become an important force in Wang Ba’s hands.

Unfortunately, he had not found a second Mountain Moving Ape, so there was no way to start cultivation.

However, he suppressed his emotions and asked in a calm tone, “The younger the female ape, the better. Do you have any?”

“Of course, I do.”

The youth Foundation Establishment Cultivator immediately answered:

“All the apes here are young and have been well-fed. Once they mature, their chances of surviving the Minor Heavenly Thunder Tribulation are much higher than those in the wild.”

Upon hearing this, Wang Ba remained non-committal.

He was not a fool. On the contrary, with the influence of many scrolls in the Beast Room and long-term experiments with Spirit Chickens and Spirit Turtles, his accumulation in regards to spirit beasts was probably only second to the former House Master of the Beast Room.

This was not because he had any talents in spirit beasts, but because compared to regular Cultivators, he had more opportunities to practice and knew how to summarize.

Many principles related to spirit beasts could be easily mastered once the core principle was understood.

Just like what the young cultivator said. His well-fed Mountain Moving Apes had a much higher chance of passing the Minor Heavenly Thunder Tribulation compared to those in the wild.

This couldn’t be said to be without reason. But for Mountain Moving Apes, although plentiful food was important, the battles and hardships they encountered in the wild could arguably unlock more of their potential.

These experiences were the key factors in whether a Mountain Moving Ape could survive the Minor Heavenly Thunder Tribulation.

Of course, the ape Wang Ba cared for was not included in this.

That was considered cheating.

After some consideration, Wang Ba started:

From the fellow Daoist’s words, It sounds like you have some Mountain Moving Apes. I won’t hide it from you, I am currently practicing a spell and need this type of Spirit Beast. If you don’t have too many, I’d like to buy them all. Maybe you could give me a discount?”

“All of them?”

The youth Foundation Establishment Cultivator was slightly taken aback, but then showed a happy expression and suddenly became enthusiastic:

“Of course, that’s great. I still have five Mountain Moving Apes, including this one, a total of six, two males, and four females. Since you want all of them, I’ll give you a discount. Each for 38 middle-grade Spirit Stones…”

One for 38, six would be 228.

Wang Ba calculated silently in his heart, realizing that he was quite short of

Spirit Stones in his Storage Bag.

He promptly suggested to replace it with other materials.

The youth Cultivator readily agreed since, for Cultivators, cultivation materials were actually more important than Spirit Stones.

It’s just that Spirit Stones were easier to circulate.

Wang Ba then took out some things he felt were beneficial for Class II.

What surprised Wang Ba was that the other party was interested in a pot of chicken essence.

A pot of chicken essence was roughly the product of condensing a thousand lower-grade Spirit Chickens.

If it was according to the market price and the cost of making Spirit Food was included, a pot of chicken essence was worth about twenty or thirty middle-grade Spirit Stones.

However, that was the market price. In Wang Ba’s actual cost, the cost of producing Spirit Food accounted for the majority.

Wang Ba had no objections. He would be able to learn how to make chicken essence with some time, and he had accumulated a fair amount of it over the years.

He immediately used two pots of chicken essence to offset the cost of two Mountain Moving Apes.

And with some Class II Talismans acquired from the Cultivator’s Storage Bag in the Jingyue Mansion, he offset another.

After paying the remaining amount, he satisfyingly stored six Mountain Moving Apes into the Spirit Beast Bag.

Before leaving, the youth Foundation Establishment Cultivator exchanged a

Sound Transmission Talisman with Wang Ba:

“If I find more Mountain Moving Apes later, I’ll come to find you.”

Wang Ba naturally agreed.

The requirements for cultivating primate Spirit Beasts were higher than for Spirit Chickens. Spirit Chickens could produce offspring amongst close relatives, but doing so with primates could cause problems.

This required a large number of female Spirit Beasts for breeding.

1 herefore, his demand for Mountain Moving Apes was quite large in the short term.

After walking around further, he found that most Cultivators were selling Elixirs and Talismans.

These were the resources that Cultivators consumed most regularly.

However, Wang Ba didn’t need these much.

Moreover, he had looked at these Elixirs and Talismans. To be honest, both in terms of quality and grade, they were far from those circulated within the Tianmen Cult.

Apparently, without the support of heritage and resources, Rogue Cultivators, even if they had mastered some of the skills of Cultivators, could not cultivate these skills very well.

After a round of looking, he was a bit disappointed.

Just as he felt that the Linglong Ghost Market was falsely reputed, his steps suddenly halted. He unintentionally stopped in front of a stall selling various Jade Slips, gold papers, and scrolls..
