Chapter 2522: Mystical Stone

They retraced their original path out of the Swamp of Myriad Poisons. Although Lingling was reluctant, she obediently returned to the sword behind Lin Feng. This allowed the group to return to Jincheng, where Lin Feng urgently sought materials to repair the damaged treasure as soon as possible. When finished, traveling without the Roc Heaven Beast would become much more convenient.

After entering the market, Lin Feng took Tao Tao and the others around, but didn’t find anything that caught their eye. However, he did purchase a lot of slightly better materials, which were meant for the Mechanism Puppet Legion’s future use.

Later, upon seeing the Jincheng Auction House, Lin Feng decided to try his luck there, so he took Tao Tao and the others with him. To his surprise, they had not even entered the auction house before hearing someone shout at the auction house staff: "Why can’t it be auctioned? Just because you don’t recognize it, you say it can’t be sold. What kind of reasoning is that!"

"Our auction house must be responsible to the bidders. You can’t identify what the item is, and we can’t firmly determine what it is either. How can we auction it? There’s truly no way! If you believe the item is valuable, you can try a larger city’s auction house where maybe it can be identified and auctioned!" The auction house staff explained to this person.

"It’s embarrassing that a reputable auction house can’t recognize it and just sends people to other cities! What’s the logic in that? Traveling to bigger cities by Roc Heaven Beast costs thousands of Yuan Stones. If I had that much travel expense, would I be here selling?" The person roared angrily, then swept away in frustration, appearing very upset.

As the person passed by Lin Feng, Lin Feng suddenly became interested and said to the person, "What item do you want to auction? Can I have a look? If I like it, we can directly negotiate a price!"

"You want to see it?" The person cautiously glanced at Lin Feng and saw that Lin Feng and his companions were quite young, but didn’t say much. Instead, he said confusedly, "This item is not cheap!"

The implication was clear. He thought Lin Feng and his companions were too young to possibly afford the item he held, as he was certain it was extraordinary. Though he didn’t know what it was, he knew it must be something valuable!

"Don’t worry about that. If I can’t afford it, let’s just consider it as making a friend!"

Lin Feng smiled at the person and said. If it’s Yuan Stones, Lin Feng still has tens of millions on hand; if it’s Elixir, he has plenty; if the other party needs Dharma Treasure, he can customize whatever type is required. Therefore, Lin Feng felt that within Jincheng, there really wasn’t anything he couldn’t afford.

Upon hearing Lin Feng’s words, the person’s eyes suddenly brightened, feeling Lin Feng was quite agreeable, and he smiled and nodded, saying, "You seem pretty good, much more sincere than the auction house. I’m Ren Hai, happy to make a friend. How about we find a place to eat and talk?"

"Sure!"

Lin Feng nodded, agreeing, with a perpetual smile on his face.

When they arrived at a restaurant and ordered a private room with food and wine served, Ren Hai finally took out the item he mentioned, then handed it to Lin Feng, saying: "Take a look, this is the item."

Lin Feng wasn’t polite and took it to examine closely. However, the moment he studied it, he was stunned. A very peculiar feeling arose, something familiar. Suddenly, he remembered why this item felt familiar — it was because he needed to repair a damaged treasure; this item bore the aura of the damaged treasure!

Could this item be the main material for the damaged treasure? But this doesn’t make sense; the treasure was all golden, while this item is pitch black. What’s going on here?

Looking at the mysterious pitch-black stone in his hand, Lin Feng finally asked aloud, "This thing is indeed special. Can you tell me how you obtained it?"

Lin Feng faced Ren Hai and asked, genuinely curious. If he could figure out this item’s origin, he might be able to uncover the issue and completely repair the damaged treasure. But he couldn’t say these things directly, lest the other party arbitrarily raises the price.

"Getting this item was a coincidence. Recently, I went to the Southern Region to gather herbs, walked about a thousand miles, and while resting at the foot of a mountain, a meteor suddenly fell from the sky fifty miles away, causing a shock wave that directly swept me off my feet. I rushed over, discovering in the meteor crater, a large black stone glowing with golden light!"

Ren Hai used his hands to illustrate an exaggerated size and continued: "I knew there was definitely something special about it, so I exerted great effort to peel off the hard outer shell, revealing this item. At that time, it was golden, emitting golden light. But later, I don’t know how it transformed into what it is now!"

Thinking of this, Ren Hai felt frustrated enough to spit blood. Who could have known it would change? If it had remained golden and shiny, even if the auction house didn’t recognize it, they surely wouldn’t have refused the auction. But saying this now is too late. Now all he wants is to see if Lin Feng might give him a good price.

Lin Feng, hearing this, suddenly felt excited and asked Ren Hai, "Is this true?"

"Saying that is pointless. I want to sell this item; how could I be deceiving you? Moreover, how can one fool someone about this matter? If you were to find out I lied, how could I live here in Jincheng!" Ren Hai, upon hearing Lin Feng ask this, immediately became agitated and protested. His face flushed with anger at the suggestion, ready to leave, not wanting to further dialogue with Lin Feng.

Lin Feng, observing Ren Hai’s expression and finding him seemingly earnest, instantly reached out to stop him, saying, "Why get angry? I merely asked casually. Don’t be upset; I apologize, okay?"

Hearing Lin Feng say this and seeing Lin Feng seeming genuinely sincere, Ren Hai sat down again and replied to Lin Feng, "I am straightforward; I say what I mean. But one thing, I never deceive. Do you want this item or not? Give me a straightforward answer!"

"Honestly, I too don’t know what it is, but I can ascertain it’s a good item. So let’s do this—you set a price, and if I find it acceptable, I’ll buy it!" After calming Ren Hai, Lin Feng said this, skillfully pushing the price-setting back to Ren Hai. He noticed that Ren Hai was merely at the peak of the Divine Origin Realm; even if he set a high price, how high could it go?

Upon Lin Feng’s words, Ren Hai hesitated a moment; he didn’t know how much to sell it for. Otherwise, he wouldn’t have gone to the auction house. But remembering the auction’s base price, he suddenly had an idea, saying to Lin Feng, "Alright, the base price at the auction house was fifty thousand Yuan Stones. Typically, auctions can fetch several times or even ten times more than the base price, sometimes more, sometimes less. If you truly want it, take it for three hundred thousand Yuan Stones; what do you think?"

This statement was also Ren Hai testing the waters, as he couldn’t estimate its true worth and felt this price seemed appropriate, without losses.

Lin Feng, upon hearing this, felt a jolt in his heart; such a large piece of material was enough for his use, perhaps even mimicking to create another special traveling Dharma Treasure. Ren Hai clearly didn’t know the item’s true value, yet although he was pleased, he showed outward concern and seemed quite torn.

"This price..." Lin Feng looked at Ren Hai, seemingly hesitating, and said, "I can afford it, but... but without understanding its nature, the price indeed seems steep, even though it’s something from an extraterrestrial meteor, surely not ordinary, but all I’ve heard is you..."

Seeing Ren Hai about to speak, Lin Feng then acted as if he was biting the bullet, saying to Ren Hai, "Fine, isn’t it just three hundred thousand Yuan Stones? I’ll consider it making a friend!"

Upon hearing Lin Feng’s initial words, Ren Hai’s heart sank, fearing Lin Feng was going to negotiate the price, but upon hearing the latter part, he instantly became joyful. Three hundred thousand Yuan Stones was no small sum to him, and anyone would be thrilled to the point of finding such wealth unexpectedly. It allowed him to acquire many cultivation resources!

"Fantastic!" Ren Hai exclaimed joyfully, "Finding a person like you is indeed my luck. You are much better than the auction house people!"

Seeing Ren Hai’s excitement, Lin Feng said no more and directly took out three hundred thousand Yuan Stones from the Space Ring to trade with Ren Hai. Once Ren Hai stored the Yuan Stones into his Space Treasure, his smile widened with joy, eagerly wanting to drink with Lin Feng.

Seeing this, Lin Feng could only accompany him with a smile.

After Ren Hai had eaten and drunkenly departed, Lin Feng finally revealed a knowing smile, signaled to Tao Tao, and they, too, left the restaurant.

Once they left, Lin Feng took them hundreds of miles away from the city, stopping in a valley. Before Tao Tao and Ma Biaohu had a chance to speak, he waved them off and concentrated on setting up a Formation!

At this moment, Lin Feng felt genuinely happy; he hadn’t expected wishes to manifest before him. It really felt his luck was great, as if the heavens were favoring him. If his fortune continued like this, then establishing his Sect in the future would go much smoother. Additionally, he eagerly anticipated once the damaged treasure was completely restored, what traveling through the sky would be like...
