452 Buying The Tools For Little Shrubby

"Please let me call our in-house Spirit tool refiner, sir. He may be able to give a more accurate answer for this than me as you need custom tools." The shopkeeper replied.

"Okay," Lin Mu said before watching the shopkeeper leave.

While he was gone, Lin Mu spread his spirit sense around the shop and observed everyone and everything. While Lin Mu was traveling on the back of Little Shrubby he had nothing much to do and as such decided to refine his spirit sense further.

In the short span that he had traveled, Lin Mu had already managed to increase the range of his spirit sense to two hundred meters. With a range this large, Lin Mu was easily able to scan the entire shop and the people within it.

A couple of minutes passed like this and the Shopkeeper returned with another man. This was the in-house spirit tool refiner of the Gengbai Emporium. Lin Mu had watched them coming here with his spirit sense and thus knew just the right moment to withdraw his back in.

It was likely the shopkeeper and the owner of this establishment would not like Lin Mu spying on them and their customers. They in fact had formations that blocked the perception of spirit sense, placed on their walls.

But Lin Mu simply went around them using the doors which actually did not have those formations on them. It was a flaw in the security but it was more due to affordable costs, similar to the Alluring Wisteria pavilion.

"This is our spirit tool refiner, Refiner Ru." The shopkeeper introduced the old man.

"Greetings customer…" Refiner Ru spoke but could not recall the name of the man in front of them.

"Ah, I forgot to introduce myself. My name is Wu Lian." Lin Mu said, corresponding with the name that he had given before to the guards.

"So I heard you need some custom spirit tools, can you please describe them to me in detail?" Refiner Ru asked.

"Sure. I need a spatial storage treasure that can be used by anyone, even spirit beasts; a durable harness that can handle a speed equivalent to that of a nascent soul realm cultivator and a spirit tool that can function as a hand." Lin Mu replied.

"Hmm… the spatial storage treasure will need to be modified a bit, but it shouldn't be a problem. For the harness, I can get one made from the leather of a bronze bull which is one of the best materials we have for it. And for the spirit tool that can function as a hand, I actually have something ready with me." Refiner Ru said after thinking for a minute.

"That's good. Can you show it to me?" Lin Mu asked.

Refiner Ru nodded his head before withdrawing a hand that was made from metal from his spatial storage treasure. It had multiple moving parts and had the same structure as that of a human hand.

The only difference would be the color, as it did not have skin covering it.

"How did you have something like this pre-made?" Lin Mu asked curiously.

"This is a prosthetic arm that some cultivators use. Not all of them can afford alchemical pills that can heal and regrow their arms and thus they use these in their stead.

They are a bit difficult to make and as such I keep at least one of them prepared in case anyone comes to buy and it saves me time too." Refiner Ru stated.

"Ah, I see now. That does make sense." Lin Mu replied.

"If you want, you can check how it works yourself." Refiner Ru suggested.

"I'll do that then." Lin Mu said before taking hold of the metallic hand.

He was intending to let little Shrubby use it for cooking, as it had a hard time with certain parts of it, like using spices and brushing condiments on meat. Even stirring was something that he found to be problematic. He had ever made something that needed stirring, thus little shrubby only found that out when Lin Mu was teaching him to make stews and soups.

Lin Mu looked at the metal hand and let his spirit sense enter it. As soon as it did, he could feel a connection with the tens of small joints of the hand and the fingers. He had to control each part individually and took a few tries before he was able to properly move the fingers.

"Hmm, it's good. A bit tough but good." Lin Mu assessed before placing it back on the table.

"Indeed. It takes a bit or practice to get used to but once you do, it will act the same as a normal arm. Even its durability is quite good due to being made with refined iron essence. The only flaw is that one cannot use most Qi skills with it as that requires meridians. Though martial skills should be no problem." Refiner Ru explained.

Lin Mu nodded his head and decided to get this hand too.

"What about the spatial storage tool? When can I get it?" Lin Mu questioned.

"If you are willing to wait for a few minutes, I'll modify a basic spatial storage tool."  Refiner Ru answered.

"Sure, do that. Also, what kind of a spatial storage tool is it? I want something that can be used as a belt." Lin Mu stated.

"That will be no problem. I have a spatial storage tool that is in the form of a belt." Refiner Ru said before going to get the spatial storage tool.

A couple of minutes later, he returned with a brown belt that had a few gems embedded in it. He placed it on the table and created a few runes around it before making modifications to it.

Ten minutes passed, before he was done with it.

~huu~

"It is done. Now this belt can be used by anyone, and all of the restrictions on it have been removed. As for the harness, I will give the order to the blacksmith, you should get it by tomorrow at the latest." Refiner Ru said.
