One of the Yin Tiger beings with scars on his face turned to Han Li, and asked, "Are you interested in the items here, Mister?"

"I'm not here to buy things. Do you buy things here?" Han Li asked.

When the three men heard this, they exchanged glances with each other, slightly surprised.

"If it's a good thing, then we'll buy it." The scarred man looked at Han Li from head to toe and said.

Han Li faintly smiled. He turned his hand and took out a palm-sized black jade box. He then handed it over.

The scarred man took the jade box and opened it. His complexion changed as he closed the lid.

"Your Excellency, please come with me."

The scarred man made a respectful gesture towards Han Li and led him into a dark room behind the booth.

Han Li had observed that there was a dark room behind every tribe's booth. It was used for secret transactions.

The furnishings inside the room were very simple. There was only a table and two chairs. The walls were engraved with magic characters. He didn't know what kind of prohibition spell they were.

The two of them sat face to face. Only then did the scar-faced man take a deep breath and open the jade box again. He saw a fist-sized dark gray crystal lying in the box. It was covered with countless tiny holes and looked very much like a beehive.

From time to time, a grey mist would come out from the beehive crystal. It looked somewhat mysterious.

"Your Nightmare Beehive Crystal is of very good quality. It's considered a top-grade item. We'll take it. How many grey crystals do you want? You can also barter with other items." The scarred man looked at the dark grey crystal in the box and said.

"Your Excellency is an honest man. It seems that it was a wise choice to look for your Yin Tiger Tribe.

In that case, let's get straight to the point. I want three hundred grey crystals. "Han Li faintly smiled.

"This … 300 is a bit expensive. We'll take 160." The scarred man revealed an awkward expression and showed three fingers.

"270!" Han Li said in a deep voice.

"180 is the most I can do." The scarred man shook his head.

The two of them haggled for a while and finally settled on 200 grey crystals.

The scar-faced man waved his hand, took out a storage bone ring, and handed it over.

Han Li took the Storage Bone Ring and scanned it with his Spiritual Sense.

Inside was a small pile of gray crystals, each of which was half the size of a fist. Faint traces of gray gas could be seen flowing inside.

This item was called Grey Crystal, and it was the currency used by cultivators in the Dust World. It was similar to the Immortal World's Immortal Origin Stone, but it contained extremely pure Fiendish Energy.

On the other hand, the Hornet's Nest Crystal was a Dust World material that he had obtained from the Rat Immortal's storage bag.

Gathering information also required some expenses, so Han Li decided to sell this Beehive Crystal in exchange for some Grey Crystals.

He flipped his hand and put away the Storage Bone Ring. He was secretly delighted.

This Beehive Crystal was only one of the many precious materials in the Rat Immortal's storage pouch. It was very unremarkable, yet it could be sold for 200 grey crystals.

He didn't know how much the other materials were worth, but the value of that storage bag was far beyond his expectations.

"Fellow cultivator, do you have any more Nightmare Beehive Crystals on you?

Or other precious materials? Rather than spending the effort to find other sellers, why not sell all of them to my Yin Tiger Tribe? You don't have to worry about the price. The Yin Tiger Tribe's reputation has always been good. We will not disappoint you. "The scarred man put away the Nightmare Beehive Crystal and looked at Han Li with anticipation.

Han Li shook his head and said, "This item is something I found by chance. How could I have more?"

Hearing this, the scarred man's eyes flashed with disappointment.

"Although I don't have anything else to sell to you, I still want to buy some things from your Yin Tiger Tribe." Han Li said with a smile.

"Oh, what does your distinguished self want to buy?" The scarred man's face lit up again as he asked.

"I want to buy some ancient books from your Yin Tiger Tribe." Han Li said.

"Ancient books?

What ancient books? "The scarred man was startled and immediately became vigilant.

"Don't worry, I don't want your Yin Tiger Tribe's secret techniques. I want books about human geography, materials, and other things. It would be best if they are outside of the June Prairie or even the Blacktooth Realm.

The Yin Tiger Tribe is a large tribe in the June Prairie. There should be a lot of books in this area. "Han Li said with a smile.

On his way here, the stalls only had all kinds of materials. He didn't see a single book.

This was no wonder. The Tamuda Assembly was mainly used to trade goods. Who would spend the effort to collect books?

If Han Li wanted to collect all kinds of information, he could only use this method.

The scar-faced man's expression eased upon hearing this before he took a deep look at Han Li, and said, "So you want these tomes. I can sell them to you, but these tomes were collected by my race with great difficulty, so they won't be cheap."

"So long as it's valuable, the more the better," Han Li said with a smile as he tapped his finger on the table.

"Alright, please wait here for a moment." The scarred man stood up and left.

After half an hour, Han Li left the Yin Tiger Tribe's stall with a faint smile on his face.

He had obtained a lot of books from the Yin Tiger Tribe.

He had just browsed through them. Most of them were outside of the June Prairie. There were also some that were outside of the Blacktooth Realm.

Han Li didn't stop and continued to walk forward.

In the blink of an eye, half a day had passed.

The sky had already darkened. Cages were hung everywhere in the trading point. White fireflies were placed inside, emitting a bright white light that brightly illuminated the trading point.

As the night deepened, the trading point became even more lively.

Han Li walked along the stalls in a good mood.

In the past half a day, he had found two more tribes and sold some materials. He had also bought some books about the Dust World.

The three tribes that Han Li had chosen were all large tribes. The amount of information he had bought far surpassed that of the Grey Lizard Tribe's books.

He calculated in his heart and decided to temporarily stop buying books.

Firstly, the information he had bought was more or less enough. Moreover, the June Prairie's information was sealed, so the information stored in each tribe was about the same.

Moreover, buying books in the Tamuda Assembly was a strange thing. If he did it too often, it might attract the attention of others.

Han Li put down his thoughts and looked at the goods on both sides of the stall.

On the way here, he had studied the Grey Lizard Tribe's books. He already had some ability to appraise things in the Dust World. Adding on his powerful consciousness, he quickly found a lot of good things.

"Eh, this is!" He suddenly stopped in front of a stall. His eyes under the cloak revealed a trace of excitement.

The stall here was not big. Most of the items were spirit grasses. There were not a lot of ores and other materials. Behind the stall stood two people with horns on their heads and fish scales on their faces. They looked like Fishmen.

"Friend, what have you taken a fancy to?" One of the Fishmen warmly greeted.

Han Li looked at a box in the corner of the stall. Inside were tens of translucent plants. The leaves were thin like ice crystals, and the veins inside were clearly distributed.

He was very familiar with this grass. It was the main material for refining the Evil Purging Pill, the Bitter Flower.

These materials were extremely precious in the Immortal World, but they were casually piled there.

"How much are these spirit grasses?" Han Li pointed at the Bitter Purging Flowers.

"Oh, you want these Ice Crystal Grass?

Three grey crystals for one. "The Fishman casually said. It was as if his enthusiasm had been greatly reduced.

"Three grey crystals …" Han Li was speechless.

The Bitter Purging Flower was a top-notch spirit grass in the Immortal World. Its price was not cheap. Most of the time, it could not even be bought with immortal stones, yet it was so cheap in the Dust World.

"Ice Crystal Grass, I seem to have heard of this name before …" His heart moved as he recalled the Grey Lizard Tribe's books that he had read a few days ago. One of the books seemed to have mentioned this grass.

He thought back, and the vague memories in his mind quickly became clear.

According to the records, this grass grew in cold places. In the depths of the June Prairie, there was a bottomless swamp where a large amount of Ice Crystal Grass grew.

However, the Ice Crystal Grass was useless against Dust World creatures. Thus, the records only briefly described it and did not draw any pictures. Otherwise, he would have already recognized it as the Bitter Purging Flower.

The Bitter Purging Flower's effect was to disperse killing intent. This thing was harmful to Dust World creatures, so it was no wonder it was so cheap.

With that in mind, Han Li came to a sudden realization, and asked, "Is that all?"

A look of surprise appeared on the faces of the two merpeople upon hearing this.

The Ice Crystal Grass could only be used to refine a few poisons. Moreover, it was not rare at all. Anyone who went to the Bottomless Swamp would be able to pick a lot of it. There was actually someone who wanted to buy a lot of it.

"I'm sorry, this thing does not have many uses. We only picked these." The older Fishman shook his head.

"Okay, then give them all to me." Han Li did not pursue the matter and said indifferently.

He had already obtained the map of the June Prairie from the Grey Lizard Tribe. He knew that the Bitter Purging Flower was produced in the Bottomless Swamp. He could pick a batch at any time.

Moreover, the dozens of stalks in front of him were enough for him to refine pills.

The two Fishmen hurriedly wrapped up the Bitter Purging Flower and handed it over.

Both sides handed over the money and the goods. The transaction was quickly completed.

"Friend, do you still need other Spirit Grasses? We, the Mo Yu Clan, are experts in growing all kinds of Spirit Grasses. You can take a look at these Marsh Orchids. They are all over ten thousand years old. Also, these Dead Spirit Grasses have just been picked. They have not lost any of their medicinal properties." The older Fishman enthusiastically introduced the other Spirit Grasses.

Han Li had seen records of Marsh Orchids and Dead Spirit Grasses in the records of the Grey Lizard Tribe. They both contained dense killing intent and were considered precious Spirit Grasses in the Dust World.

However, these things were useless to him, so he naturally would not buy them.

As a result, Han Li shook his head at the other party and quickly left the stall. He walked forward with a glint in his eyes.

The experience of buying the Bitter Purging Flower had given him a wake-up call.

The Dust World and the True Immortal World were two different worlds. Resources were different. Things that were worthless in the Dust World could be priceless in the True Immortal World.

Since he had come to the Dust World, he might as well collect more things like the Bitter Purging Flower. When he returned to the True Immortal World in the future, he would immediately make a huge profit.

Speaking of which, although he did not lack Immortal Meta Stones, he would not complain about having too many of them. God knows when he would need them. If he waited until he needed them, then he would be in a passive position.

However, the two worlds had different names for these materials. It was not easy to follow the map, so he could only try his luck and slowly search for them.

He recalled the Yin attribute Spirit Grasses and ores in the True Immortal World. At the same time, he spread out a bit of his Divine Sense and carefully checked the stalls around him.
