19: Purchase again

Just as Nangong Yu was delighted, he heard a pleasant voice from beside him.

"My Yuer, have you thought of something happy to be so cheerful?"

Upon hearing this, Nangong Yu knew that his mother, Shangguan Yuexi, had woken up.

However, his expression remained unchanged, still beaming with joy, his eyes filled with the innocent curiosity of an unknown world, like a true infant.

He stretched out his small hands, as if seeking a hug, which made Shangguan Yuexi smile slightly.

She reached out and picked up Nangong Yu, gently pinching his soft, bouncy little cheek, then lowered her head to nuzzle his forehead.

"Yuer, are you hungry?"

Nangong Yu did not answer, his expression still maintaining the innocent ignorance of an infant, his eyes filled with affection for his mother.

Or perhaps, having been reborn as an infant, his consciousness was slightly affected, deepening his attachment to his mother.

Shangguan Yuexi smiled, "Let's eat our fill first, then mother will take you out to play, okay?"

As she spoke, she skillfully lifted her clothes... A moment later, Shangguan Yuexi carried Nangong Yu out of the room and greeted Aunt Shen and Liu Mingyue.

The four of them then left the Prince's Estate!

In the carriage, Shangguan Yuexi and the other two chatted idly. Nangong Yu felt rather bored, so he simply closed his eyes and fell into a deep sleep.

Seeing this, Shangguan Yuexi was slightly surprised, "Why does Yuer seem to be sleeping so much these past two days?"

Aunt Shen smiled slightly, "Your Highness, there's no need to worry. Infants at this age are usually quite sleepy, so it should be normal!"

Liu Mingyue didn't understand much about this, so she didn't say anything.

Shangguan Yuexi nodded slightly and didn't think much of it.

Little did she know, the reason Nangong Yu fell asleep so quickly was that his consciousness had entered the Time-Space Merchant Guild.

With yesterday's experience, Nangong Yu had a deeper understanding of the Time-Space Merchant Guild's power.

Now that he entered this place, he also wanted to see what kind of things were inside.

But as he looked at the countless glass shelves that seemed to stretch endlessly, he couldn't help but shake his head slightly.

Afterward, he wandered among them, focusing on the shelves for Cultivators of the Xuanling Continent.

Medicinal Pills... Weapons... Spirit Talismans... Formation Plates... Cultivation Techniques, Spirit Techniques... After a long while, Nangong Yu completed a circuit and couldn't help but nod slightly.

He discovered that the highest-grade items currently available in the Time-Space Merchant Guild were those of Rank Seven and below.

As for Cultivation Techniques and Spirit Techniques, they were all low-grade goods of Human, Earth, and Heaven ranks, with no Advanced ones.

Perhaps truly good items would only appear when higher-level shelves were unlocked?

Currently, he had both Spiritual Root and Physique, and even a Cultivation Technique like the Grand Void Origin Returning Art, so he wasn't lacking in these things.

As for Spirit Techniques and Medicinal Pills, etc., he was merely a small fry in the Early Stage of the Spirit Absorption Realm, and the goods on the first floor of this Time-Space Merchant Guild were enough for him.

Nangong Yu looked at the three new items on the distant white jade shelves and couldn't help but smile slightly.

The three items were the ancient texts "Basic Swordsmanship," "Basic Speed Dao," and the spirit nurturing pill!

According to the 'Comprehensive Knowledge for Xuanling Continent Cultivators', low-level Cultivators generally use corresponding unranked Spirit Techniques as introductory Spirit Techniques when first learning a certain type of Spirit Technique, to help them transition.

High-level Cultivators don't pay much attention to that; they just learn directly, and it doesn't have much impact.

However, when Nangong Yu wanted to learn Sword Dao Spirit Techniques, the Time-Space Merchant Guild first recommended 'Basic Swordsmanship'; when he wanted to learn movement Spirit Techniques, it first recommended 'Basic Speed Dao'!

Nangong Yu looked at 'Basic Swordsmanship', which only cost 100 points, and bought it casually without much thought.

Unexpectedly, after seeing the information for 'Basic Swordsmanship', he was slightly surprised.

[Basic Swordsmanship: Special ancient text, covering the fundamental essentials of sword cultivation, such as basic sword skills, movement essentials, will tempering, and so on.

In addition, Basic Swordsmanship also covers the essentials of cultivating Sword Dao Spirit Techniques, comprehending Sword Intent, advancing Sword Momentum, and comprehending Sword Dao Laws, etc., serving as the Foundation for cultivating the Sword Dao.

Thoroughly mastering Basic Swordsmanship and starting with it to cultivate the Sword Dao can avoid detours and is the Foundation for the long-term development of one's own Sword Dao.]

Honestly, Nangong Yu was quite surprised when he saw this information. He hadn't expected Basic Swordsmanship to be so important.

Afterward, he looked at 'Basic Speed Dao', which had a similar description, so he bought it as well.

Finally, he spent 80 points to purchase a bottle of ten Rank Two Special Grade spirit nurturing pills!

The spirit nurturing pill is a Rank Two Medicinal Pill, containing a large amount of easily absorbed spiritual energy, making it most suitable for those in the Spirit Absorption Realm.

Nangong Yu felt his cultivation progress was a bit slow, which is why he bought this bottle of spirit nurturing pills.

He didn't think much further and directly chose to learn Basic Swordsmanship and Basic Speed Dao.

With the assistance of the Time-Space Merchant Guild, he soon mastered both ancient texts.

And those basic sword skills, movement techniques, and other actions had formed conditional memories in his body, just waiting to be triggered!

It could be said that if he were in a low-end Wuxia world at this moment, he would be a top-tier expert.

After all, in such a world, his movement technique would be almost invincible, and his sword skills likewise. Who could get close to him?

Nangong Yu smiled slightly, about to continue looking around, when he suddenly felt an unfamiliar aura and quickly withdrew from the Time-Space Merchant Guild.

He slowly opened his eyes, curiously looking at the person in front of him.

To be precise, it was the person holding him!

This was a beautiful woman who resembled Shangguan Yuexi by six or seven parts, and Nangong Yu felt a sense of intimacy from her.

"Oh, my little Yuer is awake?"

Seeing Nangong Yu open his adorable big eyes, the beautiful woman couldn't help but smile.

She lowered her head and nuzzled Nangong Yu's forehead, then laughed, "You Little Fellow, your mother held you for so long and you didn't wake up, but you woke up as soon as Grandma held you?"

"Mother, Yuer probably woke up because he felt a sense of unfamiliarity."

Hearing his mother's words, Nangong Yu also knew that the person holding him was probably his maternal grandmother.

A sweet, soft smile appeared on his small face, and his little hands were restless, grabbing his grandmother's hand one moment and her clothes the next.

Seeing this, a middle-aged man nearby couldn't help but smile, "This Little Fellow isn't shy at all! Let grandpa hold him too!"

But as soon as he reached out, the beautiful woman slapped his hand away. "Go, go, get out of here. I just got him, what's it to you?"

Seeing this, the man wasn't annoyed; he just smiled slightly and continued to sit aside, watching Shangguan Yuexi and the others chat, occasionally interjecting a remark.

Nangong Yu curiously looked at the several strangers beside him, but cast a glance towards a certain spot.
