Chapter 689
by“Get lost!” A furious shout resounded through the sky, and all sounds instantly quieted. Everyone’s eardrums were buzzing, and even some warriors with lower strength had blood flowing out of their ear canals. The continuous noisy in front of the booth obviously made the seller a bit angry.
“I don’t want to say the same thing a second time. If you can’t meet my requirements, please leave here.” The seller said in a deep voice.
“Transcendent Third Realm！” A low shout came from the crowd.
From the faint aura emanating from this seller, everyone realized the extraordinariness of his strength. Immediately, some people who wanted to take advantage shook their heads and sighed, and slowly retreated.
This seller was clearly a fierce person, the kind of tough guy who licked blood from the knife. Taking advantage of this kind of person was destined to have no good end.
But there were still quite a few people who stayed, earnestly trying to bargain with the seller.
The seller shook his head again and again, firmly insisting on the price of ten Saint Pills and refused to budge.
Gradually, the number of people in front of the booth decreased, and finally it was deserted.
Yang Kai and Fei Yu finally also came to the booth. After seeing clearly the things in front of them, their expressions both shook.
What was placed in front of the seller was a lotus-shaped ice about the size of a palm. It seemed to be carved from ice crystals, but it exuded a vigorous vitality. The lotus was in full bloom, and the lotus leaves were fresh and green. A faint fragrance slowly wafted out from this ice lotus. Both Yang Kai and Fei Yu felt extremely comfortable all over, and their thinking became much sharper than usual.
A rare treasure！ Yang Kai immediately judged.
“Ice Heart Snow Lotus？” Fei Yu couldn’t help but exclaim in surprise. She slowly crouched down, her beautiful eyes sizing up the ice lotus, and took a deep breath： “This must be ten thousand years old, right？”
As soon as these words came out, Yang Kai’s expression changed.
Ten thousand years！ No matter what kind of medicinal herb it is, even the lowest grade medicinal herb, if it can grow for ten thousand years, it is a priceless treasure. What’s more, this ice lotus didn’t look ordinary at first glance.
The seller’s expression, which had been as calm as a deep well, also moved slightly. He looked up at Fei Yu and nodded slightly： “Finally, there is someone who knows the goods.”
Fei Yu pursed her lips and smiled： “It’s not that I know the goods. There were also quite a few people who knew the goods just now, but they just didn’t want to tell the truth.”
If you want this thing, of course you won’t deliberately exaggerate its value. They all thought that the seller was ignorant and wanted to take advantage.
“Can it really only be exchanged for ten Saint Pills？” Fei Yu asked softly.
The seller nodded gently.
Feiyu shook her head and sighed. Ten Saint Pills, she really couldn’t come up with them. Saint-level pills couldn’t be refined by just anyone. Even a Saint-level alchemist had a high chance of failure when refining them.
So each Saint-level pill was extremely valuable, and ten of them were worth a city！
Ordinary warriors would never be able to see ten Saint Pills in their entire lives.
“Shishu, this thing can nourish the divine soul, right？” Yang Kai also had quite some attainments in distinguishing natural treasures, but after all, he had only been in contact with them for a short time, and there were still some things he didn’t really recognize.
On the contrary, it was different for Feiyu. Although she wasn’t an alchemist, she had lived for so many years after all. Her eyesight and knowledge were much broader than Yang Kai’s. It wasn’t strange that she could recognize this Ice Heart Snow Lotus and its age at a glance.
“Yes, a rare treasure that nourishes the divine soul.” Feiyu nodded slightly. “There’s no need to refine it into a pill. Taking it directly can exert its full effect. With such an Ice Heart Snow Lotus, no matter who it is, the power of their spiritual consciousness will skyrocket. Strange, this thing isn’t easy to come by. Why don’t you take it yourself instead of coming to exchange it for ten Saint Pills？”
“I naturally have my own reasons.” The seller didn’t want to explain much. “Do you have enough Saint Pills？ If you do, we can make the deal now. If not, don’t waste my time.”
Feiyu pursed her lips and immediately didn’t like this seller much.
Yang Kai pondered for a while before opening his mouth and asking, “Can you give me a few days to prepare？”
“How long do you need？” The big man glanced at Yang Kai.
“Three days！”
“I can give you time, but I can’t guarantee that I won’t sell it before that.” The seller said in a deep voice.
Yang Kai frowned： “But I only have one Saint Pill now！”
“That’s your business.”
Seeing that he was so unaccommodating, Yang Kai didn’t say anything more. He really wanted the strange treasure that nourished the divine soul, but it required ten Saint Pills. With his current alchemy level, he still needed a little time to prepare.
At the very least, he had to collect some medicinal materials not lower than the top-grade Spiritual level, preferably Saint level.
If he refined them with a Spiritual Array and the Spiritual Milk of Myriad Medicines, Yang Kai was confident that he could refine ten Saint Pills in three days.
Of course, the price paid would also be huge, and perhaps countless materials would be wasted.
Just as he was considering whether to do this or not, suddenly someone beside him crouched down. Yang Kai turned his head and saw that it was actually a handsome young man about his own age.
The newcomer also looked at Yang Kai. Their eyes met, and both saw a hint of surprised admiration in each other’s eyes.
Both of them felt that the other’s strength was not low.
Feiyu also had a strange light in her beautiful eyes and stared at the young man for a few times.
The man smiled gently, with a hint of evil charm in his smile. It seemed that in an instant, even the sky and the earth became sunny and bright.
“This Ice Heart Snow Lotus is not bad.” The young man retracted his gaze and began to focus on the strange treasure in front of him.
“Ten Saint Pills！” The seller still quoted the price with a calm expression.
“Hmm, I want it.” The young man nodded slightly.
Yang Kai and Fei Yu looked astonished, and the seller also seemed a little disbelieving as he looked at him and frowned, saying, “Give me ten Saint Pills first, and this thing will be yours.”
He clearly didn’t believe that such a young man could take out ten Saint Pills at once.
The young man smiled slightly and casually threw out a Qiankun Bag： “Take a look for yourself. There are exactly ten. If you want more, I can’t do anything about it.”
The seller released his spiritual sense to check it for a while, and suddenly his face lit up. He stood up and strode away. Soon, his figure disappeared, extremely decisive and straightforward, not even saying a single extra word.
Yang Kai and Fei Yu were dumbfounded.
The young man, however, smiled slightly, stretched out a slender hand that was no less than that of a woman, carefully took the Ice Heart Snow Lotus over, put it into another Qiankun Bag, and nodded friendly at Yang Kai： “Sorry, friend. It’s not that I’m seizing love by force. Everyone wants good things.”
“Understood.” Yang Kai nodded lightly and didn’t mean to argue with him.
His own chips were not enough, and he was preempted by others. There was really nothing to say about this.
“See you again.” After saying this, the young man quickly squeezed into the crowd.
“That guy… What’s his background？” Fei Yu was in a daze for a long time before she couldn’t help but take a deep breath. “Ten Saint Pills, he took them out without even blinking an eye.”
“He should be a person with a background.” Yang Kai stared at the direction where he disappeared. “And… he is also a very powerful alchemist.”
“How do you know？” Fei Yu was surprised.
“On his fingertips, there is the fragrance of pills, which is the fragrance of Spirit-level pills. It should be stained with perennial from refining pills.
Fei Yu couldn’t help covering her small mouth： “Isn’t that similar to you？”
At such a young age, he can refine Spirit-level pills. This is not something that ordinary people can do. Although Mina is also a lower-rank Spirit-level alchemist, her age is older than Yang Kai’s.
And that person just now was different. He looked about the same as Yang Kai.
“No.” Yang Kai shook his head, his expression solemn. “Maybe he is even more powerful than me.”
Fei Yu was shocked and speechless.
Originally, she thought that in this world, the appearance of a monster like Yang Kai was already a once-in-a-century event. But now, in this Floating Cloud City, she actually encountered another one.
“However… he is a pretty boy, and I’m not！” Yang Kai suddenly grinned again and said gloatingly.
Fei Yu shook her head in surprise： “You… He just looks handsome.”
“If he let his hair down, I’m sure he would be a beauty, hahahaha！” Yang Kai laughed a few times. It was also a kind of sadness for a man to grow up like this.
“Let’s go, continue to take a look. If there are no good things, we’ll go back.” Yang Kai beckoned, and Fei Yu quickly followed, dissatisfied and said, “You promised to treat me to a drink. Are you lying to me？”
“Buy the wine and go back to the inn to drink.”
It seemed that the good luck just now was used up all at once. The two of them wandered around in this trading area for two hours and didn’t come across any good things.
Just when they were about to go back, they saw a person setting up a new booth and continuously taking out some top-quality rare medicinal materials from his Qiankun bag.
Yang Kai couldn’t help but have some expectations. This person seemed to be an alchemist and was wearing an alchemist’s nameplate on his chest. He just didn’t know what level he was, and the medicinal materials he took out were all relatively precious and could be regarded as very rare treasures.
“Take a look again.” Yang Kai said to Fei Yu and stood in front of the booth, waiting quietly.
The people around seemed to have also discovered the difference here, and soon many people gathered around. The medicinal materials placed by this alchemist were actually quickly snapped up, and the business was extremely hot.
The onlookers couldn’t help but be a little disappointed when they saw that his Qiankun bag was empty.
“Wait a moment, I have a companion coming soon. He has a lot of good goods.” The seller said.
Upon hearing this, the people who were about to leave couldn’t help but look forward expectantly.
“Friend, where did you and your companion get these treasures？ They seem to have some age.” Someone asked curiously.
“Hehe, it doesn’t matter if I tell you. We accidentally discovered a small profound realm. There was nothing there except for some medicinal herbs growing. These things were all brought out from there.”
“Your luck is really good.” The person who asked the question looked envious.
Small profound realms come in all sizes. The small profound realm where the Ancient Demon Clan lives is relatively large. There are also some very small spaces with extremely hidden entrances, which are a kind of secret realm. In such a small profound realm, there may be treasures left by the ancients, or there may be some natural treasures growing, or there may be nothing at all. Everything depends on the luck of the person who finds the small profound realm.”
