With my spiritual body returning to my physical body I continued to go through the demon merchant page in my grimoire to conduct an inter-realm network search. Now that the energy-gathering projects have been set up, my next step was to set up the phantom sword mushroom farming project. This one going to cost me a lot but the benefits it brought outweighed all the work, investment, and effort required to bring this project to fruition.

As I said this project was going to require a lot of capital and manpower, which was why I was on the inter-realm network search searching to buy phantom sword spawns and an affordable space item. Neither of these two items was cheap. However, they were important for me to grow and harvest phantom sword mushrooms.

Finding phantom sword mushroom spawns in the inter-realm network search was not difficult but finding good phantom sword mushroom spawns was. In order to grow good quality phantom sword mushrooms I need good phantom sword mushroom spawns as mushroom spawns were like seeds of the plants.

Which was why it was important for me to get my hand on good quality phantom sword mushroom spawns. This was starting to seem impossible because all the posts on the inter-realm network search regarding phantom sword mushroom spawns turned out to be either a scam or rip-off.

What's the use of planting seeds that won't germinate? Similarly buying mushroom spawns that won't grow into a mushroom was a waste and if a demon merchant was trying to sell low-level phantom sword mushroom spawn despite knowing that they will not grow into a phantom sword mushroom if they weren't then what.

The reason I planned to cultivate and harvest phantom sword mushrooms was that they were one of the most in-demand products in the devil merchant code market making them one of the most expensive products in the devil merchant code market the same was true in the card world market.

With such high demand for phantom sword mushrooms in the market it was not surprising that many demon merchants would try to grow phantom sword mushrooms. This gave birth to the demon merchants who sell useless phantom sword mushroom spawns or who sell phantom sword mushrooms at a sky price.

People trying to take advantage of the lucrative products was nothing new. My problem was I could not find a single genuine post selling good-quality phantom sword mushroom spawns in the inter-realm network. I was prepared to pay the sky-high price but only for the genuine product and not low-quality goods.

Going through numerous inter-realm network post, I short-listed four posts that managed to make me think the phantom sword mushroom spawns they were selling was genuine product and of excellent quality. Interestingly all four of them quoted similar prices. Making it harder for me to choose between them.

So I reached out to all four of the sellers in their private inter-realm networks requesting them to sample one of their phantom sword mushroom spawns. Out of four two of them immediately replied to my request and used the demon merchant codex to send free samples of their phantom sword mushroom spawns.

Holding two phantom sword mushroom spawn samples sent over by their sellers I used my soul pupils to compare them and check which one of them was the best among them. To my surprise, both of the spawns belonged to the same breed of phantom sword mushroom. This made it easier for me, I decided to order half of a dozen Phantom sword mushroom spawns from both sellers. I did not plan to place a bulk order with either of the two sellers because I still did not trust them. I planned to see if they come through with this small order first, then I would decide whether to continue doing business with them.

They might have sent me excellent quality phantom sword mushroom spawns as samples but who was to say that they would give me excellent quality phantom sword mushroom spawns when I place a bulk order with one of them? Unless I can trust either of the sellers I did not plan to choose between them or give them a bulk order. Phantom sword mushroom spawns were not cheap if I got cheated I could only blame myself.

I placed half a dozen phantom sword mushroom spawns with both sellers, it cost me a total of 24,000 low-tier soul jades. I was okay with being cheated of this small amount of money to find out if I could trust both or either one of the phantom sword mushrooms spawn sellers.

As soon as I placed the offering on the compact offering array it was replaced by five phantom sword mushroom spawns. I repeated the same for the second seller and now I had a dozen phantom sword mushroom spawns in front of me including the two samples.

Out of these dozen phantom sword mushroom spawns only 5 of them were of excellent quality while the other 7 were of good quality. However, it was worth noticing that without using my soul pupils I could not tell the excellent quality phantom sword mushroom spawns apart from the good quality ones. The two sellers would have gotten away with their trick if not for my soul pupils.

I contacted both sellers in their private inter-realm network regarding my discovery of the phantom sword mushroom spawns they sold me asking them for an explanation but to my surprise both of them claimed that they sent half-dozen excellent quality phantom sword mushroom spawns and even implied that I was lying. With this, I concluded to not continue my business with either of them. I gave them an opportunity, they could have just apologized and replaced the good-quality phantom sword mushroom spawns with the excellent-quality ones. But they did not and enunciated that I was lying.

Despite catching the two sellers in the act I did not bother to report them to the devil merchant code for malpractice using the demon merchant codex's guilty appeal function because they would easily be acquitted claiming that it was an appraising error, their appraisal skills were not advanced enough. At worst they would get a stern warning and a small fine. Not worth me wasting my time on them.
