Bang!
His palm hit the stone, but it did not shatter!
This scene startled the onlookers.
“What’s going on? A palm strike was actually unable to shatter this immortal source stone?”
“F*ck! I’ve seen this happen before at Chen’s immortal source stone shop not too long ago!”
“Chen’s immortal source stone shop? I remember now! F*ck! The last time something like this happened, the person obtained something good! It was a Tier 5 forging material, or something like that.”
Wang Mang’s eyes lit up when he heard this. Could it be that he really managed to get something good this time?
Thinking this, he looked at the stone in his hand and struck it again.
Bang!
At this moment, the stone finally broke into pieces. However, there were no immortal stones inside. Not a single piece!
Instead, there was an unknown black iron ball the size of a goose egg.
While Wang Mang was wondering what this thing was, he heard a series of exclamations.
“F*ck! That’s Tier 5 black meteoric iron!”
“Such a big piece too! He’s hit the jackpot!”
“This piece of Tier 5 black meteoric iron is estimated to be worth around 30,000 immortal stones!”
Smiling Buddha’s mouth twitched a few times.
Never in his wildest dreams had he imagined that Wang Mang would actually get something good from a stone he had casually handed over. Moreover, Wang Mang had recouped his losses from this one stone alone, and even made a 200% profit.
His heart bled, but he also knew that this was a game of pure luck. Therefore, although he had lost money, he still forced himself to smile. Wanting to make full use of this opportunity, he shouted, “Everyone, come and take a look!” “This junior has obtained a Tier 5 artifact refining material! It’s black meteoric iron, and it’s as big as a fist!”
“Who the f*ck said that my shop doesn’t have anything good? Open your eyes wide and take a good look at what this is!”
Upon hearing Smiling Buddha’s shout, the students who were passing by all came over curiously..
When they saw the goose egg-sized black meteoric iron in Wang Mang’s hand, they all gasped. It was true!
At the same time, a smile was plastered onWang Mang’s face. He had already secretly asked the system, and knew that this thing was worth 31,000 energy points!
The only thing that made Wang Mang feel helpless was that the system did not want this thing, and only seemed to want immortal stones and other treasures that contained immortal qi.
At this moment, Smiling Buddha smiled at Wang Mang and said, “How does it feel? Junior, how about I give you 30,000 immortal stones for this piece of black meteoric iron?”
Wang Mang shook his head.
“That’s too little. This piece of black meteoric iron is worth at least 31,000 immortal stones!”
Smiling Buddha was slightly surprised by the fact that Wang Mang was able to guess the approximate value of the black meteoric iron.
After pondering for a while, Smiling Buddha smiled and nodded.
“How about this? I’ll give you store credit worth 31,000 immortal stones, and you can continue playing.”
Wang Mang immediately shook his head and refused, “Give me 30,000 immortal stones, and I’ll pick another immortal source stone worth 1,000 immortal stones.”
Obviously, Wang Mang knew that he should stop while he was ahead. If he continued playing, he would lose thousands of immortal stones for every immortal source stone. He did not want to go from rich to bankrupt within a few hours.
He had to think of other ways to earn immortal stones!
After pondering for a moment, Smiling Buddha nodded and said,
“Alright! Here are 30,000 immortal stones! Junior, please count them!”
As he spoke, Smiling Buddha waved his hand and 30,000 immortal stones appeared in his hand.
Wang Mang waved his hand and put the immortal stones into his storage space. Then, he smiled and said, “I’ll go with the same method. Senior, please help me pick one!”
After hearing this, Smiling Buddha’s heart skipped a beat. He then took out an unremarkable-looking stone with a smile on his face.
To be honest, this stone actually had another name, which was waste stone!
This was the biggest stone, and after many stone-gambling masters had appraised it, they determined that it would not yield anything good.
Of course, ordinary people did not know this and all, and often bought it because it was the biggest. Therefore, he often sold these waste stones at a high price.
After all, new immortal source stones were hard to find, and the mines in which they originated from were mostly controlled by the large factions.
Ordinary people would sell their immortal source stones to the Great Stone Workshop, as it had the backing of a powerful faction, and was able to offer better prices.
Thus, the smaller shops only received the rejects,
Smiling Buddha smiled and handed the stone to Wang Mang.
“This stone is priced at 1,100 immortal stones, but in view of the business you’ve brought in, I’ll give it to you for 1,000 immortal stones!”
Wang Mang did not think too much about it and took the stone with a relaxed expression. He had already made a profit, so this one was just for fun.
Regardless of what was inside this stone, he did not plan to continue gambling after this. Thus, he raised his hand and slapped the stone.
However, it was a repeat of the last stone…
It did not shatter again!
Seeing this scene, the crowd was stunned.
“F*ck! No way! Is this kid going to get two in a row?”
“That’s impossible, unless Smiling Buddha has turned over a new leaf!”
“Is he trying to bait us into buying his stones?”
“Impossible! That stone was clearly a piece of trash, so it should not be able to produce anything good!”
“He probably didn’t use much strength! That’s why the stone didn’t shatter!”
Everyone’s eyes were glued to the stone in front of Wang Mang. However, what they did not know was that Wang Mang had really used the same amount of strength to smash it as the last time, but it did not budge!
This scene also made Smiling Buddha’s heart skip a beat. He was a little frightened as he stared at the waste stone, muttering, “This shouldn’t be possible. This waste stone is clearly a piece of f*cking trash. It is impossible to get anything good from it..”
