LIGHTNOVELONLINE Chapter 85: Windfall
After registering at Lingyun Pavilion, Chen Yuan went straight to Yunju Mountain, where there were caves in the market, and rented a first-class cave.
As a disciple of Lingyun Sect, he only needed to spend 20 spirit stones to rent it for a year, which was half the cost of a casual cultivator.
Chen Yuan came to the cave, activated the restriction, took out the storage bags of Huang Yundao and others, and began to sort out the spoils of this battle.
Although Mo Jingchun took away the most precious talisman, he left all the other things to Chen Yuan, which also made him a great gain.
First of all, there were more than 600 spirit stones.
Among them, more than 300 pieces belonged to Huang Yundao, and the spirit stones of the other four people added up to just as much as Huang Yundao.
This is normal. The disciples of Lingyun Sect value good deeds the most, but they don’t have many spirit stones.
The five people added up, only slightly more than the spirit stones Chen Yuan got from Huang Yunshang.
There were six bottles of pills, only one of which was the Yuhua Pill used for cultivation.
Except for one Huang family member, the other four of them have reached the peak of the tenth level of Qi Refining. There is no further progress, and cultivation is useless.
Four of the other five bottles of elixirs are used for healing and detoxification.
The last bottle can restore mana, and it is exactly the same as the one Chen Yuan got from Huang Yunshang, with a total of three.
There are more than a dozen talismans, most of which are medium-grade talismans. There are only three high-grade talismans and one top-grade talisman. Chen Yuan sorted them out a little and put them away.
With these dozen talismans, the total number of talismans in his hand has exceeded fifty.
More than thirty of them are medium-grade talismans that can be cast instantly. If you don't hesitate to consume mana to smash them, even three or two cultivators of the tenth level of Qi Refining will have to retreat.
The top-grade talismans are also very useful. Although it takes three breaths to activate, using one can suppress ordinary cultivators of the tenth level of Qi Refining.
The top-grade magic talismans were a bit useless. They needed a breath of time to activate and were not powerful enough. Chen Yuan rarely used them in the battle.
After the talismans were sorted out, there were some spiritual minerals, spiritual plants, and monster materials, all of which were used to refine magic tools.
Chen Yuan knew nothing about the art of refining tools, so he put them in a storage bag and prepared to go to the market tomorrow to sell them all.
Finally, there was a pile of magic tools with shining spirits on the table, which was the biggest gain of Chen Yuan's trip.
The most precious ones were naturally the two top-grade magic tools in Huang Yundao's hands, a red round shield and a black iron ruler.
But after Chen Yuan injected his magic power and hastily refined them, he found that these were just two ordinary top-grade magic tools, which were far inferior to the Dingguang Mirror.
It seems that Huang Yundao is far less favored than Huang Yunshang...
Chen Yuan shook his head and checked the remaining magic tools again.
But except Huang Yundao, the other four people had top-grade magic weapons in their hands, a total of eight pieces, and the quality was quite ordinary, not in Chen Yuan's eyes.
The only good news is that the four people have been disciples since childhood, and the top-grade magic weapons they use are not Baiyun Sword, so they can be easily sold.
According to Mo Jingchun, only disciples who enter the sect through the Ascension Conference can receive a Baiyun Magic Sword.
This is not because the sect is partial, but to enhance the strength of these casual disciples so that they can win more spiritual herbs in the secret realm of Dongxu Mountain.
Other disciples who joined the sect when they were young did not have this treatment.
…
The next day, Chen Yuan came to Baoguang Pavilion again.
The young female cultivator who passed the message for him yesterday thought he was here to visit Nie Ming, and greeted him and immediately went to find Nie Ming.
Chen Yuan stopped her and said:
"I am here to sell a batch of materials for refining magic weapons. Daoyou, don't bother Master Nie."
The female cultivator suddenly realized and led Chen Yuan to a Baoguang Pavilion manager.
The steward learned from the female cultivator that Chen Yuan and Nie Ming were familiar with each other, so he did not bargain down the price and accepted all the materials in his hand for 300 spirit stones.
In order not to trouble two masters for one thing, Chen Yuan took out eight high-grade magic tools and sold them all to Baoguang Pavilion.
However, magic tools are different from materials. Baoguang Pavilion purchased the materials for refining for its own use. In addition, Chen Yuan and Nie Ming knew each other, so the steward did not bargain down the price.
Baoguang Pavilion purchased magic tools not for its own use, but to resell them, so each magic tool was bargained down by 10 or 20 spirit stones.
Chen Yuan did not care. If he sold them one by one, he would not know how much time and energy it would take.
After evaluation, these eight magic tools were sold for a total of 3,000 spirit stones.
After leaving Baoguang Pavilion, Chen Yuan recalled that when he had just refined the Juling Pill, he set up a stall on the street to sell it in order to sell one or two more spirit stones, which made him lose a lot of smiles. He couldn't help shaking his head and laughing.
It is true that a horse cannot grow fat without night grass, and a man cannot become rich without unexpected wealth.
Times have changed, and he is no longer the casual cultivator who just entered the world of immortal cultivation and can only live frugally.
...
Nineteen days later, in a slightly dim hall, there were more than a dozen masked cultivators sitting.
They all had the cultivation level of the tenth level of Qi Refining, and several of them even reached the peak of the tenth level of Qi Refining.
They sat in a circle on the futon, with a small peach wood table in front of them.
Above the table in front of one of them, there was a red round shield about one foot in size, engraved with a flying black bird, emitting a faint spiritual light.
The man looked around and said in a hoarse voice:
"The Black Bird Shield is a top-grade magic weapon, full of spirituality, can automatically protect the master, contains a trace of the power of the Black Bird, restrains fire magic, and is priced at 800 spirit stones."
As soon as the voice fell, someone said:
"I want this shield!"
Another person followed up and said:
"I'll pay 820 spirit stones!"
The person who made the first bid immediately followed up:
"830 spirit stones!"
As soon as these words came out, the hall became quiet.
The market price of a top-quality magic weapon is eight hundred to nine hundred spiritual stones.
This black bird shield can only restrain fire spells, and has a single use. It can only be regarded as ordinary among the best magic weapons. No matter how high the price is, it is not worth it.
The bidder seemed to be in a good mood when he saw that no one followed the bid, and said with a smile:
"Since no one bids for this fellow Taoist, please give this shield to me."
As he said that, he took out a storage bag, raised his hand to give it away, and slowly flew towards the owner of the black bird shield.
The latter took the storage bag, scanned it with his consciousness, and confirmed that the number of spiritual stones was correct. With a slight click, the black bird shield flew to the bidder.
The bidder injected his spiritual consciousness and mana, inspected it carefully, nodded with satisfaction, and then put it away.
At this time, the person who sold the black bird shield touched the storage bag again, took out a dark iron ruler, and said:
"The Chongxuan Ruler, the best magical weapon, is as heavy as a thousand pieces of stone. It is hard in texture and is good at breaking hard-shell shields. It has miraculous effects on turtles, crocodiles, and rhinoceros monsters. Eight hundred spirit stones."
"Eight hundred and twenty spiritual stones!"
"Eight hundred and forty spiritual stones!"
"Eight hundred and fifty spiritual stones!"
The black iron ruler was far more popular than the red buckler, and it rose to 890 spiritual stones, which was collected by one person.
The person who bought the iron ruler laughed several times, rubbed the iron ruler, and couldn't put it down.
A person who lost the bid snorted coldly, obviously extremely unwilling.
A monk who did not participate in the bidding looked at the person who sold the iron ruler and said with a wry smile:
"If fellow Taoist had taken out this iron ruler earlier, how could I have used up all the spiritual stones earlier!"
Several other people looked at the person who bought the iron ruler with envy on their faces.
No wonder they had such a big reaction, not far from Lingyunfang City, there is a huge lake called Mingcang Lake, with a radius of 1,500 miles.
There are many islands dotted around it, and many monsters live there. Most of the casual cultivators in Lingyunfang City in the late stage of Qi refining hunt monsters and beasts in the lake, look for spiritual herbs, and exchange them for spiritual stones to maintain their cultivation.
There are the most monsters in the water in Mingcang Lake, and the Chongxuan Ruler is good at breaking through hard armor and shells. It has miraculous effects on dealing with such monsters, so it naturally becomes popular.
None of the magical weapons that appeared later in the trade fair were as popular as the Chongxuan Ruler.
The person who sold the Mysterious Bird Shield and the Chongxuan Ruler had a lot of spiritual stones in his possession, but he was sitting quietly on the futon, closing his eyes and concentrating, seemingly indifferent to the next transaction.
Finally, the last monk sold his items, the trading session ended, and everyone left the hall one after another.
Outside the hall is a garden. This trade fair was actually held in a cave on Yunju Mountain.
The person who sold the Black Bird Shield and the Chongxuan Ruler left the cave and walked around Yunju Mountain several times. After his consciousness dispersed and he was sure that no one was following him, he took off his mask and changed into a robe.
This man is tall, with sword-shaped eyebrows on his temples, eyes like stars, and a clear spirit. He is Chen Yuan.
After taking off his disguise, he walked around twice more before returning to the rented cave.
Following Nie Ming's instructions, Chen Yuan participated in this trade fair and sold all the two magical artifacts obtained from Huang Yundao. The number of spiritual stones in his hand exceeded 5,000, making him a wealthy man.
At the trade fair just now, a top-quality magic weapon appeared that made Chen Yuan very excited, but he never took action from the beginning to the end, and just watched indifferently.
This trade meeting was very secretive. He didn't know the identities of everyone present, let alone whether anyone recognized the origins of these two magic weapons.
Many of the monks in Lingyunfang City are related to the Lingyun Sect.
If someone recognizes the Black Bird Shield and the Chongxuan Ruler, they are likely to inform the Huang family in exchange for the spirit stone.
If Chen Yuan sells the magic weapon and then buys the magic weapon at the same time, he will expose his trump card to Huang, which is extremely unwise.
There are still more than four months until the fixing mirror is repaired. He can slowly look for the magic weapon, and there is no need to rush at this moment.
