Chapter 741 Black Stone
"What's inside?"
After walking a little further away, Zhao Mu looked at the little slave girl.
"I don't know either, but I should be of some use to you. As for value..."
An Lin raised a slender jade finger with some pride.
"One hundred high-grade spirit stones?"
Anlin shook her head.
"A thousand?"
The little slave girl urgently shook her head, but she didn't continue to scare Zhao Mu. Instead, she took the initiative to say, "It's worth at least 100,000 high-grade spirit stones."
"Are you sure you're not joking?"
Zhao Mu was a little surprised.
One hundred thousand coins could buy most of the eighth-grade elixirs, magical herbs and rare treasures. He thought it was great if it was worth ten thousand coins, but who would have thought that this little slave girl would ask for one hundred thousand coins at the very least.
In other words, there is no upper limit!
"Of course it's true. If it's false, Anlin will allow the master to bully her!"
"..."
Zhao Mu rolled his eyes. What kind of guarantee was this? However, the second-hand dealer just now suffered a huge loss.
"Let's go, continue shopping!"
Zhao Mu reached out and patted the little slave girl, then said with a smile, "It seems you're quite capable in treasure hunting. Pay more attention later, and I'll give you half of the harvest!"
"I don't know how to hunt for treasure, but I'm particularly sensitive to things that can be used together with my master. There's no need to share them. When the time comes, my master and I will have to use them together."
"Let's go!"
Zhao Mu would never believe the nonsense of this little slave girl.
The few of them walked around for a while and soon found a similar stone again. However, what surprised Zhao Mu was that this time the little slave girl shook her head. It was obvious that the second stone they encountered did not contain any mystery.
Not long after, another piece was found. The little slave girl nodded, and finally Zhao Mu took it for a top-grade spirit stone.
At that moment, they walked through the entire ghost market. Black stones from the same source appeared thirty times, but unfortunately, except for the first two, the remaining black stones were all waste stones.
Moreover, according to what the little slave girl said, the value of the first black stone far exceeds that of the second one. If the first one is worth at least 100,000 high-grade spirit stones, then the second one is only worth about 100 high-grade spirit stones at most.
Although I made some money, it wasn't a big loss.
"Master, these black stones obviously come from the same place. Perhaps there are more black stones with hidden mysteries there. We need to ask around. Since so many people have them, it shouldn't be difficult to get there."
Zhao Mu knew about this without the little slave girl mentioning it.
He had now set his sights on the man at the nearest stall, who was also a middleman, but had some good stuff.
"How much is this tiger tooth?"
"The fangs of a seventh-rank ghost red tiger, three thousand high-grade spirit stones."
"It's just a seventh-level early stage Ghost Red Tiger, and the fangs aren't in perfect condition. Three thousand is too expensive."
"Since you are an expert, you should know that this Ghost Red Tiger is a member of the royal family of demon beasts. Hunting it is not easy. For these two fangs, it paid a heavy price!"
"Three thousand is indeed expensive, and I do intend to trade."
"Then fellow Daoist, how much is it?"
"Two thousand is not a low price. If it works, then we can trade. If not, then I will look for other refining materials."
"Okay, then two thousand!"
The man didn't hesitate for long and agreed immediately.
The main reason was that two thousand pieces had exceeded his psychological expectations. Normally, he could have accepted it if he could sell it for eighteen to nineteen thousand. Selling it for one or two hundred high-quality spirit stones at a higher price could be said to be a small profit.
"Oh, right. I've seen these strange, dark stones that are hard to see through at many stalls along the way. Could it be possible that you bought them wholesale from somewhere?"
He deliberately inflated the price of the Ghost Red Tiger Fang.
The purpose is to get the stall owner to reveal the origin of the black stone.
In other words, those one or two hundred high-grade spirit stones are actually consulting fees.
"This is called the Black Extreme Stone. It comes from the Crazy Demon Secret Realm three thousand miles east of the city. Because it's difficult for spiritual consciousness to penetrate, many people use it to pretend it's a rare treasure and sell it, specifically to deceive those newcomers."
"Fellow Daoist, this Black Extreme Stone is a way for many people to make money. I am telling you this at my own risk. Please do not reveal it to anyone."
As Zhao Mu expected, after giving him an extra one or two hundred high-grade spirit stones, the man took the initiative to tell him.
"I see!"
Zhao Mu showed an expression of sudden enlightenment, then put the two thousand high-quality spirit stones he had counted into an ordinary Qiankun bag and handed it to the stall owner.
The man also presented the fangs of the Ghost Red Tiger with both hands, and at the same time put the Black Extreme Stone into Zhao Mu's hands.
"I see that you are curious about this Black Extreme Stone, so I will give it to you to play with!"
"Thank you very much, fellow Daoist."
"It's worthless stuff. Every time the Crazy Demon Secret Realm opens, some of it appears."
"Oh? Then when will this Crazy Demon Secret Realm open?"
"The Mad Demon Secret Realm belongs to the Qin family of Tianji City. It opens every three months. It is not a private secret realm, but is open to the public. As long as you pay one hundred high-grade spirit stones, you can enter."
"Thank you for letting me know, fellow Daoist!"
Zhao Mu bowed slightly and thanked him politely, and the other party immediately returned the gesture.
After leaving this stall, the three of them ended their trip to the ghost market, left the ghost market, and returned to the inn in the city.
In the room, there were three fist-sized black stones of similar appearance. Two were bought by Zhao Muhua with spirit stones, and one was a gift.
Hey~
Zhao Mu tried to scratch it with a seventh-grade spiritual dagger, but he didn't expect that the Black Stone was completely intact.
"Hey, that's interesting!"
This phenomenon actually piqued Zhao Mu's interest.
However, just as he was about to attack again, Yan Bingqing suddenly reached out to stop him.
"what happened?"
"No need to go through so much trouble, and ordinary spiritual weapons are useless to it, I can do it!"
As Yan Bingqing spoke, she stretched out her slender jade finger and lightly touched one of the black stones.
When the dark purple evil energy touched the Black Extreme Stone, it was like boiling water and snow falling, and the surface of the Black Extreme Stone turned into mist and dissipated.
呲味味~
A moment later, an orange-yellow bead the size of a baby's fist appeared in front of the three people.
"This is the Moye Pearl, a ninth-grade treasure of heaven and earth, perfect for us."
"Moye Pearl?"
Looking at the smiling face of the little slave girl, he knew it was a good thing, but why had he never heard of this thing?
As if she could see through Zhao Mu's confusion, An Lin explained, "Master, this Moye Pearl is extremely rare. Unfortunately, this one is only of the ninth grade. If it were of the earth grade, or even the heaven grade, you and I would gain immense benefits."
"how to use?"
"Bite me, Master!"
"what???"
Zhao Mu was stunned for a moment, then he understood. However, when he was about to speak, the little slave girl said, "Master, wait a minute. This can only be used when we are in seclusion. Using it now will delay your search for the Eyou grass."
"Then put it aside for now!"
When Zhao Mu stopped, Yan Bingqing had already enlightened another Black Extreme Stone. It was also an orange-yellow bead, but the color was obviously much darker. The grade was estimated to be about the sixth grade. No wonder the little slave girl said it was worthless.
