Though I did not want to waste my time by reporting the two phantom sword mushroom spawn sellers to demon merchant code, I still contacted them on their private inter-realm network and warned them that if they did not compensate me I would report them to the devil merchant code even if it means wasting my time and energy. This was just a bluff, to see if I can get back what I paid for. If it works well and good if not I had other plans in mind that I planned to do anyway.

In response to my bluff, the two Phantom Sword Mushroom spawn sellers banned me from their private inter-realm network. Just as I was considering reporting these two scammers to the devil merchant code out of rage, the page of my grimoire turned from a demon merchant page to the compact offering array page by itself, and soon 7 more excellent quality phantom sword mushroom spawns appeared on the array. Now I had a dozen excellent quality phantom sword mushroom spawns and 7 good quality phantom sword mushroom spawns.

Even though the two phantom sword mushroom spawn sellers were confident that they would be acquitted if I were to report them to the devil merchant code, they did not want the hassle of going through all that just like me.

Adding to that even if they were acquitted in the end by the order of the devil merchant code they would still need to replace the 7 good-quality phantom sword mushroom spawns with 7 excellent quality ones. Not to mention in case I manage to convince the devil merchant code that what they did was not an appraisal error but planned, in the best case scenario they would have to pay a heft fine and in the worst case scenario, their private inter-realm network would be banned.

They could have gotten away with it if I had not found out their trick but now I did their best course of action would be to apologize and rectify their mistake but they did not and instead tried to act tough hoping I would go away as most newbie demon merchant would but once I threatened them with devil merchant code they decided to cut their losses by compensating me.

Though the two phantom sword mushroom sellers had compensated me, this did not mean I had let them off the hook. I have thought of the best way to get back at them and that was to attack them where it would hurt them the most. That would be by attacking their business.

I have gone through the entire inter-realm network in search of excellent quality phantom sword mushroom spawns and found that there was no way I could order a bulk quantity of excellent quality phantom sword mushroom spawns. The sellers will try to save a buck or two by mixing lower-quality goods into my bulk order.

Even if I somehow managed to find an honest demon merchant among these crooks, I do not think they would be able to meet my requirement of phantom sword mushroom spawns. Based on Hive AIʼs calculation I need nearly a million phantom sword mushroom spawns to completely use the stock of phantom sword wood in my inventory.

Yes, phantom sword mushrooms grow on the Phantom sword wood, imagine my surprise when I learned about the phantom sword mushrooms and them being one of the most expensive ingredients in the devil merchant code market. I had enough stock of phantom sword wood to grow phantom sword mushrooms but I did not have the knowledge of how to grow and harvest phantom sword mushrooms necessary to mass produce phantom sword mushrooms.

Thanks to the Infinity Library that problem was taken care of. However, two new problems surfaced now that I knew the necessary knowledge to grow and harvest phantom sword mushroom spawn. They were none other than the phantom sword mushroom spawns and an ideal location to grow phantom sword mushrooms. That was why I was scouring the inter-realm network in search of an honest phantom sword mushroom spawn seller and a storage item.

Now that I had a dozen excellent-quality phantom sword mushroom spawns I planned to use them to grow my own excellent-quality phantom sword mushroom spawns. This way I will not only manage to get the excellent phantom sword mushroom spawns I need to grow phantom sword mushrooms but also get back at the two phantom sword mushroom spawn sellers who almost scammed me earlier.

However, that would not be possible shortly because. It will take nearly two to three weeks to cultivate excellent quality phantom sword mushroom spawns. This was the reason why I did not plan to grow my own phantom sword mushroom spawns and instead tried to buy them on the inter-realm network. If my calculations were correct I will need nearly half a year to grow the amount of phantom sword mushroom spawns for my personal use.

As for selling phantom sword mushroom spawns on the inter-realm network that would only be possible after I had met my requirements. Planning and lying in wait for half a year just to get back at the two phantom sword mushroom spawns sellers over 7 good quality phantom sword mushroom spawns I never thought I would be this vindictive. Well everyone needs to have a hobby, right?

Now that I had decided to cultivate my own phantom sword mushroom spawns, next I scoured the inter-realm network for good space items to grow phantom sword mushrooms in.

Why a space item instead of land? That was because I was not strong enough to guard the phantom sword mushrooms I planned to grow until they reached maturity.

I planned to start a large-scale phantom sword mushroom plantation for which I needed a lot of land with the appropriate temperature, humidity, etc to grow phantom sword mushrooms. However, both phantom sword wood and phantom sword mushrooms were scarce and expensive ingredients in the card world when word got out about there being large-scale phantom sword mushroom plantations then it will attract the attention of greedy people.

To fight against them I would have to partner with the Southern royal family or Jill. However, if I partner with them then I will have to explain where I am selling the large number of phantom sword mushrooms that we grew. Which could risk revealing my secret about being a demon merchant to them.

So to avoid all this hassle I decided to buy a space item and start a large-scale phantom sword mushroom plantation in it.
