Continuing down the road, Austin observed the merchants and inspected their wares. Some stalls sold furs, bones, and organs of a variety of beasts, while others peddled medicine and weapons, as well as special elixirs.
There were also several that offered books on martial arts techniques.
After strolling for several minutes, Austin caught sight of two stalls selling books on martial arts.
One of them only displayed two manuals. The disciple came up to the stall and inquired how much the manual on a first-level offensive technique called Wild Bull Broadsword Skills cost.
He was told it was five thousand vital energy crystals.
He then asked about the other book, one on the second-level body-refining technique titled Iron Armor. This one was priced ten thousand.
What was disappointing was that the stall owner didn't allow Austin to look through the books before paying for them.
Cunning as he was, Austin would never agree to such a risky deal. One thing very clear to him was that almost half of the stall owners in that street were swindlers. So, it was highly probable that he would regret paying for either of the two books.
"Sixth-level cultivation method on sale! Come, have a look!"
Raising his brow, Austin thought, 'Sixth-level cultivation method?'
Any cultivation method in that level was extremely precious. Only key disciples of super large sects with a long history could get a hold of these books.
'Well here you go, another fraud, ' Austin sighed.
But since Austin was in no hurry to leave, he decided to take a look at the stall to satisfy his curiosity.
A heavyset man, who appeared to be honest and trustworthy, was kneeling behind a stall. In front of him was a large black cloth, where a manual on martial arts and an unusually-shaped scarlet dagger lay.
Seeing the dagger made Austin's heart skip a beat.
The dagger nestled on the black cloth was the exact size, shape, and style as the one Austin discovered in Rafat's Space Ring. The only difference was their color. This one was scarlet. But set aside this detail, the two daggers appeared as if they came from the same mold.
"Can you tell me what is so special with that dagger?" he asked with great interest.
The young disciple bent down to pick it up for further examination. His wrist instantly gave out under the weight of the dagger. Like the one he already owned, it was surprisingly heavy.
Happily, he thought, 'It sure is the same as the other one.' However, he kept his expression passive, so there was no trace of affection for the dagger.
It had been several hours since the man kneeling behind his stall had been crying out to customers to sell his wares. But very few were interested in them, primarily because no one believed the stall carried a genuine manual on a sixth-level cultivation method.
To most people's thinking, if super large sects ever obtained one, they would cherish it and do everything to keep it for themselves. So how could a man in a small secret market allege that what he was selling was the precious and the genuine thing? Even an idiot would easily recognize it was too good to be true.
So, while there were many people loitering near his stall, they were all busy chatting and laughing, eager to learn how that man's trick could be exposed.
"Brother, this dagger came with another piece. They make up a set. The red one is the Positive Shadow Blade, the other, the Negative Shadow Blade. Together, they are called the Twin Shadow Blades. They can only be used with the sixth-level cultivation method that you can find in this book.
