Chapter 456 - 456 Good Luck Again and Again
456 Good Luck Again and Again
Ancient Void Corpses were the evil spirits that ancient cultivators transformed into after they died.
They didn’t recognize their relatives, had no intelligence, and had no value at all. Therefore, they could only be destroyed.
Some cultivators who were proficient in the Art of Corpse Hunting and Ghost Controlling didn’t dare to touch the Ancient Void Corpse.
This object had wandered in the void for countless years and was stained with many strange and evil substances. There were even extraterrestrial devils hidden in it.
Every five hundred years, there would be an otherworldly demon hiding in the ancient corpse in the void.
Everyone in Sky City fell into a hallucinatory dream, and countless cultivators went berserk.
Sky City almost fell.
The City Lord had specially ordered that any Ancient Void Corpses that appeared should be destroyed immediately.
“Then open this one.” He Chuan pointed at the stone that was half the height of a person and said.
“Are you sure you want to open this 5,000,000 spirit stone?” The purple-robed man pulled out his golden saber and asked.
“Of course.” The commotion here attracted the attention of the onlookers.
The world always liked to watch the excitement. Even if it was someone else gambling, he would be more excited than the other party.
“This fellow Daoist is a newbie, right? There can’t be anything good seeing how this stone’s appearance.”
“He’s probably here to try his luck again.”
Everyone stood at the side and whispered.
“Open!” The purple-robed man deliberately waited for everyone to arrive before attacking.
“Hurry up and don’t dawdle.” From the looks of it, he was the boss of this place.
“All right!” The purple-robed man pulled out his golden knife and scraped off the outer skin.
“There seems to be something good.” Suddenly, a golden light appeared. The purple-robed man was shocked. His expression became more serious as he quickly cut open the meteorite’s skin.
Everyone’s expressions became serious.
He didn’t expect this kid to be so lucky. He could win a prize with just a random stone.
Finally, the golden saber reached the inside.
Crack!
A small hole appeared on the meteorite.
Inside the cave was a green-skinned baby.
The baby closed his eyes slightly, and his nose moved slightly as if he was breathing. If it weren’t for the strange green color of his skin, he would have looked quite cute.
“Jade Infant! It was actually the Jade Infant Fruit! This kid has struck it rich.”
“The Jade Infant is worth 50 million spirit stones. It’s ten times more than that. He’s really earned a profit.”
The Jade Infant was not a living creature, but a plant that grew in the Vain Deaths City.
It got its name because it looks like a baby. This item has a miraculous effect on ghosts or ghost cultivators.
“Congratulations, Fellow Daoist! You had obtained a Jade Infant Fruit! What are you waiting for? Hurry up and pick up the leftovers!” Seeing He Chuan pick up the loot, the others couldn’t help it either.
Some people started to buy meteorites.
Unfortunately, other than a small number of people breaking even, most of them were still losing money.
“If this Fellow Daoist doesn’t need this treasure, you can sell it to us.” The purple-robed man put the jade infant into the box and handed it to He Chuan.
He Chuan nodded, his eyes scanning the surroundings.
He had seen everything in the square, but there was nothing good.
“Fellow Daoist, follow me.” Under the lead of the purple-robed man, He Chuan came to a large hall at the back.
A fat man in luxurious clothes walked out.
“My name is Wang Lei. May I know your name, Fellow Daoist?” The fat man wore a jade ring on his ten fingers and had two small mustaches.
“Just call me Judge.” He Chuan said lightly.
Wang Lei handed over a card.
“This is 50 million spirit stones. Any force in the Vain Deaths City can exchange for it. ”
“Do you have any meteorites of better quality?” He Chuan asked calmly.
“Of course. Fellow Daoist, follow me.” Wang Lei liked this kind of newcomer the most. He had just entered the industry and had some benefits, but he didn’t know how to stop while he was ahead. He often spat out what he had earned.
The Appraiser Firm even had a loan service specially prepared for such people.
Soon, Wang Lei brought He Chuan.
Seeing He Chuan make a return, everyone immediately surrounded him.
Wang Lei brought He Chuan to the depths of the square.
There were fewer meteorites here, but each of them looked decent and shone with treasure light.
“That’s about it. It’s a little more expensive than the outside price. What do you want, Fellow Daoist?” Wang Lei patted his fat belly and asked softly.
A faint light appeared in He Chuan’s eyes.
The outer layer of these meteorites was even thicker, and it was even more difficult to see with the Divine Eyes. There were only hazy shadows, and one could not see the details inside.
However, this was enough. He just needed to confirm that there was something inside. Not everything could be preserved inside the meteorite. It had to be resistant to high temperatures and high pressures to be preserved.
Having such a characteristic was undoubtedly a treasure.
“This, and this…” He Chuan chose five in one go. When he walked to the innermost one, he suddenly stopped. This stone was ordinary and similar to those in the square.
The weight was the weight of a normal meteorite, but when He Chuan looked inside, a black hole suddenly attracted his gaze.
In the eyes of the Divine Eyes, it was pure black.
During this period of time, he gained some insights. The denser the treasure, the darker it was.
This thing was extremely black. What was it?
“Just these six.” He Chuan finally chose
“A total of 85 million. Fellow Daoist doesn’t have enough money…” Wang Lei looked troubled.
“This should be enough.” He Chuan casually took out 50 million spirit stones.
“Of course, it’s enough!” Wang Lei snickered in his heart. It seemed like there was another big order.
He Chuan’s straightforward purchase once again attracted everyone’s attention.
At the top of the Appraiser Hall.
An old man and a young man sat by the window.
The old man stood behind the young man. The young man was handsome, with red lips and white teeth. He had beautiful eyebrows and phoenix eyes. If it wasn’t for his Adam’s apple, one would really think that he was a woman.
This person had a scarlet Heaven Ascension Mark on his forehead.
This was the symbol of the nobility of Sky City, representing the bloodline of the City Lord.
There were two factions here. One was led by Hades, and the other was led by the Blood Emperor.
“Li Bo, do you think this person will suffer a loss?” the young man said with interest.
“In my opinion, this person will definitely suffer a loss.” Old Daoist Li Bo smiled and said, ”
“I don’t think so. Did you see his eyes? Every time he looks at a meteorite, his eyes light up. This person must have some secret technique.” The man pointed at He Chuan’s eyes.
“Impossible, the outer shell of the meteorite can’t even be seen through by the City Lord’s magic treasure. Young Master Qi Ye must have seen wrongly.”
“Let’s wait and see. After this, invite him over for a chat.” Qi Ye lazily leaned back in his chair and took a sip from his teacup.
Inside the teacup was a jade liquid that was flowing with light. It was the Star Essence, a high-grade treasure that was especially used to supply blood to the nobles of the Jade Emperor Sect.
The jade liquid that others treated as a treasure was just clear water to them.
“How about we bet on something?” Qi Ye continued.
“What do you want to bet on, Young Master?”
“Bet on the Moon Locust tree you’re planting. If you lose, I’ll give you ten Star Fragments.”
“I knew that Young Master was staring at this tree. Good!”
The two of them chatted.
The Moon Locust tree was planted on the comet, absorbing the essence of the moon and approaching Sky City for a hundred years.
It was undoubtedly an extremely precious item. No matter who asked for it, he would not take it out.
Li Bo was sure He Chuan would not make money, so he said casually.
Normally, even if you killed him, he wouldn’t take it out.
Below, He Chuan chose strange stones and was surrounded by people.
“It’s that kid from earlier.”
“Someone’s on cloud nine again. This time, they’re probably going home crying. Haha!”
The spectators were gloating.
