Chapter 1594 - Blackie Arrived (1/2)
“It’s a fifth-grade rules saint weapon left by a fifth-step saint king. It’s a rare treasure!”
Jingtai Arhat was thrilled. He thought for a while and said, “I can pay you thirty million saint stones for it. Do we have a deal?”
Thirty million saint stones was a reasonable price, but seeing how much Jingtai Arhat loved the saint weapon, Zhang Ruochen decided to raise the price.
Rules saint weapons were like Honghua Vines; there was no official market for them. They could only be spotted in auction, and a fifth-grade rules saint weapon would be worth way more than thirty million saint stones.
Normally, a fifth-grade rules saint weapon was worth thirty million saint stones.
After a bargain, Zhang Ruochen sold the fifth-grade rules saint weapon for thirty-four million saint stones.
Without hesitation, Zhang Ruochen bought a seventh-grade PaG.o.da Rune with forty million saint stones.
Jingtai Arhat handed the seventh-grade PaG.o.da Rune to Zhang Ruochen and said, “You can only use the seventh-grade PaG.o.da Rune ten times. Every time you use it, it’ll form a seventh-grade PaG.o.da Tower which can ward off the attacks from a seventh-step saint king, but it’ll only last for three breaths of time.
“You need to wait for an hour to use it again. If you use it again within an hour, it can still form a tower-shaped defense, but it’ll harm the rune significantly, after which you’ll probably only be able to use it five times.”
Zhang Ruochen knew that he needed to use the seventh-grade PaG.o.da Rune reasonably. After all, he basically spent hundreds of saint stones every time he used it.
“Do you want to buy some attack-type runes?” Jingtai Arhat asked with a smiley face.
Zhang Ruochen thought for a while and said, “Are there any cheap attack-type runes? A rune that can rival the full-strength attack of a second-step saint king.”
“Of course, we have that.”
Jingtai Arhat recommended Zhang Ruochen look at a rune called ‘King Kong Demon-Taming Rune,’ which can form a King Kong Demon-Taming Mallet, rivaling the full-strength attack of a second-step saint king.
It was also very cheap, worth only one million saint stones.
“I’ll buy it!”
Zhang Ruochen looked pleased. He spent all the four million saint stones he had on four King Kong Demon-Taming Runes.
Once ‘All Lives Equal’ was enacted, all the monks’ cultivation would be suppressed to half-step saint king, where Zhang Ruochen was now.
Even the strongest ones on the ‘Saints Merits Rank’ could only show power at second-step saint king.
King Kong Demon-Taming Runes were strong enough to kill his enemies, or to break out of an encirclement. He didn’t need to spend so many saint stones on Lamp-Lighting Rune and Buddhist Light Rune, and also, Zhang Ruochen didn’t have that many saint stones to spend.
Zhang Ruochen bought a lot of products, so Jingtai Arhat gave him a gift before he left the saint shop.
Frozen Rune.
The rune could freeze his enemy completely, which sounded good, but it only worked on monks under saint kings.
It was almost useless to Zhang Ruochen.
Zhang Ruochen infused it with saint Qi.
Whoos.h.!.+
The Frozen Rune shrunk to the size of rice, hiding under the fingernail of Zhang Ruochen’s index finger.
“If I give it to other saints, it can be a treasure for ambush.”
Zhang Ruochen looked at his fingernail, stopped smiling and thought, After ‘All Lives Equal’, all the monk’s cultivation will be under saint kings. Can Frozen Rune freeze those saint kings after that?
Zhang Ruochen really wanted to test it. If it worked, Frozen Rune would be worth more than King Kong Demon-Taming Rune during a battle.
However, it was impossible to have a trial fight with a saint king with his cultivation being suppressed as a half-step saint king.
It seemed there was no chance for him to test it.
Zhang Ruochen could never test the Frozen Rune during a battle, otherwise his enemy could kill him if it failed.
Zhang Ruochen walked out of the saint shop, sighed and forced a smile.
“I meant to have eighteen million saint stones to buy Six Desires Ancient Pill to improve my mind power to level fifty-six. Can’t believe I’ve spent all of them so soon.”
The side effects of Joy and Anger Pill hadn’t gone yet, so he couldn’t take Six Desires Ancient Pill. Otherwise, he would’ve spent the saint stones on it to improve his mind power.
Gradually, Zhang Ruochen thought, Yin and Yang Palace is a treasury, and once I conquer it, I’ll have as many saint stones as I want.
Zhang Ruochen didn’t go back to Hundred Flower Palace. Instead, he chose a dojo beside Yin and Yang Palace to crash.
On the morning of the second day, Ji Fanxin came to the dojo and found Zhang Ruochen. She gave him all the information she had on the evil-way monks from Yin and Yang Palace, but he didn’t know how she’d found that information.
It took Zhang Ruochen only fifteen minutes to finish all the books. He closed his eyes, and he could see those monks from the evil way, some of them looked ferocious, some of them were smiling sneakily and some looked seductive.
Zhang Ruochen looked serious, as if he was thinking about something.
Ji Fanxin stood beside the windows, looking at Yin and Yang Palace from afar, and said, “You’ve finished reading all the information about Yin and Yang Palace. Are you still going to attack Yin and Yang Palace now?”
“It’s be very dangerous for me to attack Yin and Yang Palace, but I need to go inspect it myself to decide whether I’ll do it or not.”
Suddenly, Zhang Ruochen looked at the index finger of his left hand and smiled. “I’ve gained a Frozen Rune recently, and I want to test it. Can you help me with it?”
“How?” asked Ji Fanxin.
