Chapter 535: Trouble (1/2)
There are practically all kinds of items here. However, I still haven’t seen a single high-grade item. Chen Feng shook his head.
In the first place, Chen Feng had no need for magic treasures, spiritual herbs and ores for the time being. Additionally, despite the high number of items in the trading zone, all of them were of average grade in Chen Feng’s eyes.
Naturally, he had still bought some items. For example, some medicinal herbs that he did not possess for future pill concoction endeavours. There were also some peculiar items there. At that very moment, Chen Feng was holding onto a palm-sized, black-coloured object. It looked like an iron plate.
“Owner, what is this?” Chen Feng asked casually.
“Hey, hey, little brother! You have good eyes. This is a dragon scale.” The stall owner was a thin old man. His triangular eyes flashed with a crafty look. One glance was sufficient to tell that he was not some good Samaritan.
“A dragon scale? This is a good item. I wonder, what is the price?” A smile appeared on Chen Feng’s face while Jian Xiaotian simply coughed.
“You want to buy it?” Hearing Chen Feng’s words, the old man grew stunned. He was clearly just joking earlier. Was this kid a fool, or was the item really a treasure?
However, thinking back on how there was nothing good in his stall, the owner then stated a price.
“1,000 Prized crystals!”
“He he! One dragon scale for 1,000 Prized crystals? How cheap!” Chen Feng grinned.
“Of course! That’s because I think little brother here looks good. Our fates must be closely intertwined,” the old man said in an embarrassed tone.
“Since our fates are closely intertwined, how about you just give it to me as a present?” Chen Feng said smilingly.
“Guh!” The old man’s eyes instantly bulged out. He had seen many thick-skinned fellows before. However, this was his first time meeting someone with such a thick skin.
“Ha ha, I am just joking! Old man, I think our fates are truly intertwined. Let’s be friends. I’ll take this for 100 Prized crystals, then,” Chen Feng said, his hand waving to produce a piece of spirit stone. However, it was not a Prized crystal. Instead, it was the higher-grade Sacred crystal.
“This is a Sacred crystal!” The old man was a Sky Human stage cultivator, after all. Seeing the spirit stone in Chen Feng’s hand, his eyes immediately glittered.
“How about it? Is it a deal or no? If no, then forget about it,” Chen Feng said smilingly.
“Deal! Naturally, we have a deal!” The old man swiftly grabbed the spirit stone in Chen Feng’s hand over. That was a Sacred crystal! It was even more valuable than 100 Prized crystals, much more valuable. More importantly, the old man knew that the iron scrap in his hand was not worth that much.
“Brother Chen, what is this thing? Is it really a treasure?” After leaving the stall, Jian Xiaotian raised the black piece of iron and asked.
“It cannot be considered a treasure. However, it is indeed the scale of a dragon. Although it is damaged, it is still valuable.” Chen Feng smiled. Truth be told, he could have done without buying this dragon scale. He was just feeling bored.
“Sigh! And here I thought it is something good.” Jian Xiaotian shook his head, tossing the scale back to Chen Feng.
“I saw a spiritual herb there earlier. It looks decent, but the price that the old man set is just too high.”
“Spiritual herb, what kind of spiritual herb?” Chen Feng was surprised. The two of them had obtained a good number of spiritual herbs back in the pocket dimension. Thus, the average 1,000-year-old spiritual herb could no longer attract their attention.
“A Blood Dragon Ginseng,” Jian Xiaotian whispered.
“That’s a good item. Come, let’s go check it out!”
They reached an inconspicuous-looking stall and Chen Feng saw the Blood Dragon Ginseng. A look of shock appeared on his face, “A 3,000-year-old Blood Dragon Ginseng. It is comparable to a 5,000-year-old spiritual herb. Why aren’t you putting this in an auction?”
“Ha ha! Little brother, you have discerning eyes. If I am to go to the auction house every time I dig out a spiritual herb, the auction house would be worked to death every day,” the old stall owner said with a chuckle. He appeared to be quite the amiable fellow.
“Makes sense. I want this Blood Dragon Ginseng. I wonder, do you want spirit stones or something else for it?” Chen Feng had long since seen through the old man’s cultivation base. A level 8 Sky Human stage cultivator. It was quite a surprise for Chen Feng. For a cultivator of this level to be opening up a stall here was quite puzzling.
“Forget spirit stones. I need a 3,000-year-old spiritual herb that has beneficial effects for the soul and sea of wisdom,” the old man said smilingly.
“This old man’s soul is damaged. Looks like he needs the spiritual herb to concoct the Spirit Accumulation Pill,” Tower said.
“A spiritual herb that benefits the soul. I do possess one. However, if I trade it for this, I will be the one losing out. Everyone knows that spiritual herbs that benefits the soul are more valuable than the other types of spiritual herbs,” Chen Feng said smilingly.
“Little brother, you really possess a spiritual herb that can benefit the soul?” A glint of surprise flashed across the old man’s eyes.
“Senior, what do you think of this Spirit Accumulation Grass?” Chen Feng’s palm waved as he brought out the spiritual herb.
“Spirit Accumulation Grass! It really is the Spirit Accumulation Grass! Not to mention, it is a 3,000-year-old Spirit Accumulation Grass. Excellent! This is the best ingredient for concocting the Spirit Accumulation Pill.” The old man was so excited that he got up. In fact, he nearly stretched his hand out to snatch the spiritual herb in Chen Feng’s hand.
However, the old man was finally able to control himself. “He he, excuse me for that. I wonder, are you willing to use the Spirit Accumulation Grass to trade for the Blood Dragon Ginseng?”
