"Young Master, do you have any other needs? What kind of Gu worms are you looking for? Our Eight Treasures Shop has everything, and I can even offer you a 10% discount on all Gu worms you purchase today," the beautiful shop manager said with a smile.
She knew that completing the transaction for Liu Chen's Legacy Gu recipe was already a great achievement, but she wasn't satisfied with just that.
Instead, she keenly picked up on Liu Chen's earlier mention of buying some Gu worms, so she quickly struck while the iron was hot, tirelessly promoting her shop's Gu worms.
With a wave of her jade hand, a First Rank Bookworm appeared before Liu Chen as if by magic.
Seeing this, a hint of curiosity flashed in Liu Chen's eyes.
He carefully took the Bookworm.
Immediately, he activated his true essence, injecting it into the Bookworm's body.
The Bookworm's body trembled slightly, then it spread its wings and slowly flew up.
As the Bookworm flew, its back slowly unfolded, revealing a small scroll.
Liu Chen looked closely, and the scroll was densely packed with information about various Gu worms, including their characteristics and prices, which was extremely detailed.
Liu Chen sighed inwardly, the Eight Treasures Shop truly lived up to its reputation.
He quickly browsed the contents of the scroll and found that the Eight Treasures Shop's Gu worms were indeed very comprehensive.
Even for a relatively niche Dao like Sword Dao, its Third Rank Gu worms were all available, enough for him to assemble a complete set of Gu worms.
However, when his gaze fell upon a Four-Turn Multi-Sword Shadow Gu, he couldn't help but gasp.
The listed price for this Gu worm was as high as 600,000 primeval stones, such a hefty price clearly exceeded his affordability.
Liu Chen shook his head helplessly, excluding this Gu worm from his considerations...
"Very well, in that case, I want one Second Rank and one Third Rank Sword Qi Gu, one Third Rank Flying Sword Gu, one Third Rank Sword Control Gu, one Third Rank Broken Sword Reforging Gu, one Third Rank Sword Step Gu, one Third Rank Sword Shield Gu, one Third Rank Power Multiplier Gu, one Third Rank Phantom Gu, one Third Rank Pocket Gu, plus eight Wine Gu.
That should be enough."
Liu Chen pondered for a moment before quickly making a decision.
The Gu worms he chose covered various aspects of the Sword Dao, including offense, movement, defense, and healing, forming a complete system.
First is the Sword Qi Gu, which is the foundation of Sword Dao, capable of releasing powerful Sword Qi to damage enemies.
The Second Rank and Third Rank Sword Qi Gu are even more powerful and can play an important role in combat.
Next are the Flying Sword Gu and Sword Control Gu.
These two Gu worms allow Liu Chen to fly freely in the air and flexibly control Flying Sword for attack and defense.
The Third Rank Flying Sword Gu and Sword Control Gu will greatly enhance speed and power.
The Broken Sword Reforging Gu is a very special Gu worm; it can heal injuries based on its own Sword Dao Dao marks, and the more severe the injury received, the better the healing effect, and it can even be used during combat.
The Sword Step Gu can make Liu Chen's movement speed extremely fast, allowing him to cover a distance of twenty steps in a single stride, making it an excellent movement Gu worm.
The Sword Shield Gu can form a shield made of sharp swords in front of Liu Chen to resist enemy attacks, and when the Sword Shield Gu receives excessive damage, the breaking of the Sword Shield will also unleash a Sword Qi counterattack, fully demonstrating the Sword Dao's unyielding offensive characteristic.
The Pocket Gu is a Third Rank storage Gu worm, which Liu Chen intends to use to store various sundries.
This Gu worm cannot store other Gu worms, but it is an extremely excellent Gu worm among similar types for storing other items.
The Third Rank Power Multiplier Gu can increase the power of Gu worms by three times, further enhancing his strength.
The Phantom Gu can create multiple phantoms to confuse enemies, creating more attack opportunities for Liu Chen.
Finally, Liu Chen also chose four Wine Gu.
These Wine Gu are not for combat, but are gu materials for him to refine the Seven Fragrance Wine Insect, and to ensure a better success rate, he specifically bought eight Wine Gu to prevent failure in Gu refinement.
The Wine Gu, which was extremely rare in Gu Yue Village, was not a rare Gu worm in Shang Clan City; it could be bought as long as one had primeval stones.
As long as he could obtain the Third Rank Seven Fragrance Wine Insect, Liu Chen's cultivation speed would greatly accelerate, and he might even successfully reach the Rank Five Realm before the plot began.
All of this was thanks to Flower Wine Ascetic's Legacy.
Flower Wine Ascetic himself possessed Wine Gu recipes from First Rank to Four-Turn, which provided valuable resources for Liu Chen.
And his Meng Han Butterfly was reverse-refined from the Nine-Eyed Wine Gu.
When Flower Wine Ascetic's cultivation broke through to Four-Turn Peak, the role of the Wine Gu gradually diminished, and the Meng Han Butterfly became his more capable assistant.
"Four Wine Gu, 2,400 primeval stones; Second Rank Sword Qi, 3,000 primeval stones; Third Rank Sword Qi Gu, 35,000 primeval stones..." The beautiful shop manager mumbled the prices of the various Gu worms Liu Chen needed, while quickly calculating the total in her mind.
Soon after, she calculated a rather favorable price: "After the discount, it's a total of 240,000 primeval stones, Young Master, what do you think of this price?"
Liu Chen listened, thought for a moment, then nodded, indicating satisfaction: "Very good, this price is fair."
Seeing this, the beautiful shop manager's face lit up with a joyful smile.
She quickly and carefully placed the boxes containing the Gu worms in front of Liu Chen.
Liu Chen didn't waste any words; he quickly took out the Elder Gu from his Aperture, then pulled out 240,000 primeval stones from it and handed them to the beautiful shop manager.
The beautiful shop manager took the primeval stones, counted them carefully, and after confirming they were correct, she pushed the boxes towards Liu Chen and said, "Goods and payment are settled, Young Master, these Gu worms are all yours now."
Liu Chen smiled, reached out and took the boxes, then turned and left the Eight Treasures Shop.
The beautiful shop manager watched Liu Chen's receding figure and quickly called out loudly, "Young Master, take care! If you need anything in the future, you can tell me in advance, and I will keep an eye out for you."
After leaving the Eight Treasures Shop, Liu Chen immediately went to several other shops to continue purchasing various gu materials.
He had extremely high standards for the quality of these gu materials, each one meticulously selected to ensure they met his needs.
Not only that, Liu Chen also specially prepared ample food for the set of Sword Dao Gu worms he carried.
After a busy period, Liu Chen finally filled his Pocket Gu with various gu materials and food.
