Chapter 16: Chapter 16: Fine Rain Needles and Flying God Claws
This was a method of communicating secretly. Qi Han couldn't do it yet with his current cultivation level. Hearing this, he nodded without saying much.
When the shop was about to close and the last group of customers had left, Qi Han welcomed Tang Zi back, who had a large bag on his back.
After seeing off the final customers, Qi Han led Tang Zi into the shop and asked, "Brother Tang, my Spirit Power is currently at level 10. I want to go to the Spirit Beast Forest to hunt Spirit Beasts, so I need some hidden weapons."
Tang Zi scratched his head, "Boss, to be honest, with your cultivation level, it's best to go with other Spirit masters or hire higher-ranking Spirit masters as escorts."
Qi Han shook his head, "Due to certain reasons, I can only go alone."
"Alright." Tang Zi didn't ask further. Everyone had their own secrets.
He placed the large bag he was carrying on the table and opened it. He searched inside and took out a small and delicate hidden weapon, handing it to Qi Han. "Boss, take a look at this."
It was a slender metal cylinder that resembled a flashlight. Qi Han carefully took it and examined it.
At one end of the metal cylinder were densely packed small holes, from which a faint cold light flashed.
"Do you know about our Tang Sect's 'Torrential Pear Blossom Needle'?" Tang Zi chuckled, his words filled with pride.
Qi Han was stunned, "Is this the Torrential Pear Blossom Needle?"
"Hey!" Tang Zi waved his hand, "How could it be?"
"But this hidden weapon does have some connection with the Torrential Pear Blossom Needle."
"It's called the Fine Rain Needle. It was created by a senior predecessor of our Tang Sect hundreds of years ago, inspired by the Torrential Pear Blossom Needle. It's suitable for low-level Spirit masters to use."
"The Torrential Pear Blossom Needle requires at least the user to be a Level 80 Spirit Douluo, and its power is even enough to kill a Title Douluo. Naturally, the Fine Rain Needle can't have such power, but it's enough for you to kill 10 or 100 Years old Spirit Beasts."
"Moreover, this needle is also poisoned. Even if you encounter a 1.000 Years old Spirit Beast, the poison is enough to give you ample time to escape."
"Our Tang Sect has restrictions on selling hidden weapons to the outside world. With your cultivation level, the most powerful hidden weapon you can buy is the Fine Rain Needle. As for powerful weapons like the Godly Zhuge Crossbow, we won't sell them to anyone below Spirit Grandmaster."
"Unfortunately, if it were a disciple of our Tang Sect using this Fine Rain Needle, they could retrieve the needle using our Tang Sect's unique technique, Mysterious Jade Hand, and reuse it. But for outsiders, it can only be used once, and each needle can be launched 3 times before it can't be used again."
After introducing the Fine Rain Needle, Tang Zi rummaged in the bag again and took out another hidden weapon.
Qi Han put down the Fine Rain Needle and took the new weapon to examine it.
It was a special hidden weapon that resembled a metallic claw, divided into 3 prongs, and each prong had sharp barbs on the sides.
"This is a famous hidden weapon from our Tang Sect, the Flying God Claws."
"This hidden weapon is not used for attacking, but for achieving rapid movement in complex terrains. Whether you're traveling or escaping in the Spirit Beast Forest, this hidden weapon is very suitable."
"And this type of hidden weapon is not disposable. Although it's a bit expensive, our Tang Sect provides a 1-year warranty."
'Well, Tang Sect's business seems to include after-sales service now.'
Qi Han silently commented.
He was not unfamiliar with the Flying God Claws. Similar equipment existed in the modern world, such as the rock climbing gear.
However, this Flying God Claws can be activated by Spirit Power, allowing Qi Han to fly much faster and cover a greater distance.
These 2 hidden weapons, one for offense and one for enhanced mobility in the Star Dou Forest, are undoubtedly very suitable for him.
Without much hesitation, Qi Han nodded and said, "Brother Tang, I'll take both. Give me 5 Fine Rain Needles and 2 Flying God Claws."
'He wants so many of them?'
Tang Zi widened his eyes and then grinned, "Alright, alright. The Fine Rain Needle is 200 Gold Coins each, and the Flying God Claws are 500 Gold Coins each. That's a total of 2,000 Gold Coins. Considering our relationship, I'll give you a 10% discount, so 1,800 Gold Coins will do."
Qi Han nodded and handed over a Gold Ticket worth 1,800 Gold Coins to Tang Zi.
These Gold Tickets were issued by the bank jointly established by the Star Luo Empire and the Heaven Dou Empire, and they could be used throughout the Douluo Continent. The smallest denomination of a Gold Ticket was 100 Gold Coins, while the largest was 10,000 Gold Coins.
Once Qi Han's money exceeded 1,000 Gold Coins, he exchanged them for Gold Tickets.
The small shop had a system safeguard, so he didn't have to worry about theft. It was mainly for convenience.
After all, Qi Han was already accustomed to using paper money in his past life.
Of course, paper money didn't have the same high value as Gold Tickets.
In general, Gold Tickets were mainly used for large transactions.
After counting the Gold Tickets, Tang Zi happily took out 5 brand new Fine Rain Needles and two Flying God Claws, instructing Qi Han in detail on how to use them and how to store the hidden weapons.
Before leaving, Tang Zi casually asked, "Boss, which Spirit Beast Forest are you planning to go to?"
"The Star Dou Forest."
???
Tang Zi's steps halted, and his expression became filled with surprise. "You're going there, boss?"
No wonder Tang Zi was astonished. The Star Dou Forest was the largest Spirit Beast forest in the Douluo Continent, with a wide variety of Spirit Beasts. But it was also dangerous, with legends of a 100.000 Years old Spirit Beast residing in its core region.
In Tang Zi's opinion, there was no need for Qi Han, who had just absorbed his first Spirit Ring, to go there. The ordinary Spirit Beast forests would be enough to meet his requirements.
After hesitating for a moment, Tang Zi sighed lightly and took out a fist-sized lump of metal from his pocket, handing it to Qi Han with an air of mystery.
"Boss, this is called the Thunderous Blast. As long as you activate the mechanism, it will explode within 3 seconds, with a blast radius of 10 meters. Consider it a gift."
Qi Han silently accepted it and curiously asked, "Is this also for sale?"
"No," Tang Zi shook his head. "Our Power Hall's responsibility is to forge and create various hidden weapons. I made this myself, and you won't find it elsewhere. Consider it a gift from a friend. If you ever need to buy hidden weapons in the future, you can come to me."
He glanced deeply at Qi Han. "Take care of yourself."
Qi Han felt a warm feeling in his heart and nodded, watching Tang Zi leave.
He carefully packed away the hidden weapons and had a thought.
"System, do you have something like a personal storage space?"
[The Host can store items in the system's storage space. The cost is 100 Gold Coins per cubic meter per day.]
???
"You, the system, are actually charging me money? And it's so expensive?"
[Because the Host now has money.]
"You–Why does a system need money?"
[This system cultivates ingredients, which also consumes a lot.]
Qi Han pondered left and right, realizing he couldn't find a reason to refute.
After all, the system had never charged him a single cent before when providing ingredients.
"Well, fine, I'll give it to you. Let's rent it for 2 days first."
He took out two 100 Gold Coin Gold Tickets, and the Gold Tickets disappeared into thin air. Qi Han sensed that there was now 1 cubic meter of space available in the system's storage space, where he could freely store or retrieve items.
He placed the hidden weapons into the system's storage space and then packed some spare clothes from his room. Finally, Qi Han lay down on the bed and quickly fell asleep.
He will set off tomorrow morning!
