Chapter 893: Chapter 573: Gray Bead, Cultivation Technique Shopping
Lu Qing stood in front of the stall where Little Li had told him there was an Exotic Treasure fluctuation.
The stall owner was a sharp-looking middle-aged man in the Golden Core Realm, sitting cross-legged on the ground with his eyes closed.
He seemed uninterested in anything around him.
Even when Lu Qing and his companions arrived, he did not show any intention of opening his eyes, allowing them to examine the items on his stall.
Lu Qing did not disturb him but slowly looked over the items on the stall.
After a while, he pointed to one of the items and asked, "Mr. Chen, how much is this treasure priced at?"
The sharp-looking middle-aged man opened his eyes and looked at the item Lu Qing was pointing to.
He said indifferently, "Fixed price, three thousand low-grade Spirit Stones."
"What, three thousand low-grade Spirit Stones?"
Upon hearing this price, Lu Qing hadn’t said anything yet, but Five Treasure Taoist couldn’t hold back.
"Mr. Chen, isn’t this price a bit outrageous? This is merely a top-quality Magic Artifact, yet you demand such a high price. At this rate, one could buy a decent Treasure!"
"Product from Divine Mountain, the price naturally differs from regular Magic Artifacts."
The sharp-looking middle-aged man remained calm, still speaking in his indifferent tone.
"Even if it’s from Divine Mountain, it’s still just a top-quality Magic Artifact that isn’t worth that many Spirit Stones!"
Five Treasure Taoist wouldn’t be fooled by him and retorted.
"If you find it expensive, you don’t have to buy it."
The sharp-looking middle-aged man glanced at Five Treasure Taoist and replied impatiently.
"Mr. Chen, your price is indeed a bit high, could you make it cheaper?"
At this moment, Lu Qing also spoke up.
"How can you believe those fabricated stories from others, willing to spend a fortune on a worthless Magic Artifact.
This item here is genuinely acquired through hardship from Divine Mountain, yet you find it expensive.
If you want it, buy it; if you can’t afford it, go to other stalls and continue being a sucker, don’t interrupt my cultivation."
As he said this, the face of the nearby Foundation Establishment stall owner changed instantly.
He couldn’t help but defend, "Senior, that’s too much. When have I deceived this senior? What I said was the truth!"
"Whether it’s true or not, you know it yourself."
The sharp-looking middle-aged man said coldly.
"You!"
The Foundation Establishment stall owner was so angry that his blood surged, but lacking the cultivation of the other, he ultimately flushed a few times but dared not react.
He just looked anxiously at Lu Qing, "Senior, I really did not deceive you. I can swear!"
"Since I already paid the Spirit Stones, naturally I wouldn’t care about these things."
Lu Qing smiled a bit, showing no intention of pursuing the matter.
"However, Mr. Chen, your three thousand Spirit Stones truly are a bit much, I cannot afford such a price."
"I said, fixed price. If you don’t want it, feel free to look elsewhere. I won’t claim the items here are the cheapest, but I guarantee every piece is a rare find from Divine Mountain."
The sharp-looking middle-aged man’s finger moved slightly imperceptibly.
Yet, he maintained his calm, his tone indifferent.
"Mr. Chen, let’s go elsewhere!"
At this point, Five Treasure Taoist simply couldn’t stand his attitude anymore and immediately said to Lu Qing.
"But no rush." Lu Qing waved his hand, showing interest, "Since this gentleman is so confident, it seems he is very sure of his treasures. Let’s have another look."
Then he continued studying the items on the stall.
Five Treasure Taoist had no choice but to stay with him.
He didn’t expect that Mr. Chen, usually so steady, would become animated upon arriving at Phecda Peak.
Still young after all, seeing so-called treasures and lacking composure.
Quickly, Lu Qing set his sights on another item.
He pointed and asked, "Mr. Chen, how much is this bead priced at?"
Following his gaze, Five Treasure Taoist saw a grayish bead, looking quite ordinary.
Not even exuding a Magical Treasure aura, it seemed to be an unrefined exotic item.
As to whether it was a treasure or not, who knew.
"This bead... also three thousand low-grade Spirit Stones."
The sharp-looking middle-aged man glanced at the bead and, after slight hesitation, said.
"Again with three thousand low-grade Spirit Stones. Forget about that top Magic Artifact, this bead doesn’t even emit any treasure aura, also priced at three thousand Spirit Stones; what an excessive demand!"
Upon hearing this price, Five Treasure Taoist couldn’t help it again.
Lu Qing shook his head at this moment: "It seems Mr. Chen indeed figures me for a sucker. Let’s go, Daoist."
He was about to turn and leave.
Five Treasure Taoist, coldly snorting, followed suit, ready to leave.
"Wait, Mr. Chen!"
Seeing Lu Qing was really about to depart, the sharp-looking middle-aged man finally panicked.
"If you honestly want this bead, how about two thousand five hundred low-grade Spirit Stones?"
"I will only offer one thousand low-grade Spirit Stones." Lu Qing steadied himself, "If Mr. Chen is willing to sell, let’s trade; if not, then let’s drop it."
The sharp-looking middle-aged man found himself hesitating once more.
If the aforementioned top-grade Magic Artifact had been claimed as coming from Tianshu Divine Mountain, that was half true and half false.
Actually, it was one of the Magic Artifacts he obtained after intercepting some enemies in Tianshu Divine Mountain.
But as for this gray bead, it was genuinely acquired from a secluded space within Tianshu Divine Mountain.
During that expedition, he had paid quite a price.
Most of the treasures acquired have been sold over the years.
