Chapter 222: Standing in Other’s Shoes (2)
Translator: Guy Gone Bad
He who was in a cultivation world full of ingredients everywhere would never understand the pains when one could not find any ingredients to refine magic weapons. He remembered that every time when he tried to refine some magic weapons or equipment, how he wished that he could have been born in a world abundant in ingredients. Then he could refine any magic weapon as he wanted.
“…” Again Yin Jinye doubted that if Rong Su and others maltreated Rong Yi while he was away, otherwise, how would he be so excited on seeing such low ingredients?
The yard was quite spacious which could accommodate over ten thousand people, elegant layout. In the middle were a rockery and a pavilion. Under the rockery was a lake. The gallery was rounding the lake, while outside the gallery were all glooming rare flowers. When the breeze blew, people could smell the fragrance of those flowers.
Rong Yi looked around curiously, “It’s not like an auction at all.”
Since the auction hadn’t started, those guests around again took out their rare magic weapons, equipment and runes for others to appreciate. And if anyone wanted them, they could exchange or make the deal privately.
Xiu Zhuo saw a magic weapon in an evil cultivator’s hand and his gloomy eyes were beaming. He then moved to Yin Jinye’s side and whispered, “My lord, it’s Hell Hook.”
Hell Hook was a level nine holy magic weapon, owning strong attack force. It could not only release burning poison, but also absorb the spiritual power or even hook other’s souls for one’s own. It was a magic weapon brought from the Earth Immortal’s secret realm, very suitable for a ghost cultivator to use. So at the time most ghost cultivators had been fighting for it, but finally it fell into the hands of an evil cultivator. And then no one had heard of it ever after.
Now it came out again.
Yin Jinye narrowed his eyes, “It is a good magic weapon, suitable for you.”
If he hadn’t become a Wandering Immortal, he would definitely buy it.
Xiu Zhuo lowered his voice, “I’ll go ask him the price.”
As he moved one step forward, a ghost cultivator asked that evil cultivator, “If I don’t see it wrong, this is the Hell Hook, a level nine holy magic weapon an Earth Immortal has refined with a lot of super rare ingredients.”
The evil cultivator said cockily, “You are right. My master shifu left it to me. Pity that I am evil cultivation, it’s of no use to me. So I want to exchange it for a magic weapon suitable for me.”
“If I wanna buy it, how much?”
“A thousand divine spiritual stones, no bargain.” said the evil cultivator firmly, showing that it was fixed price.
On hearing the price, that ghost cultivator turned around and left with regrets.
Xiu Zhuo frowned, “A thousand divine spiritual stones…”
He didn’t have so many.
Seeing that he really wanted it, Yin Jinye said, “Not expensive at all. If you really want it, I can pay.”
Xiu Zhuo really wanted it, while Rong Yi only felt his heart aching. A thousand divine spiritual stones! He could buy numerous low level ingredients!
He said bitterly, “What’s the good of it? It could only hook one’s soul and absorb one’s spiritual power. I can refine one without costing a single divine spiritual stone, and I can make it ever better than that.”
Xiu Zhuo and Yin Jinye both twitched their mouths. What is wrong with this guy? He looks so excited when he sees those low level ingredients, while wears a disgusting face when seeing a level nine holy magic weapon???
On hearing Rong Yi’s words, the ghost cultivator sneered, “Where do you come from, young man? Do you even know about it? Only those rare ingredients needed would cost at least five hundred divine spiritual stones and the rest are for the refiner’s pay. If you don’t know it, just keep your mouth shut. Don’t reveal your ignorance before people. Otherwise even you companies would be laughed at.”
Those cultivators around all thought Rong Yi was talking nonsense. Apparently the Hell Hook was made of all level nine ingredients. How is it possible he could refine a better one without even costing a single divine spiritual stone?
“But it is not so good.” Rong Yi didn’t want to offend people, so he just murmured to himself.
Yin Jinye had ever seen how Rong Yi had refined superb magic weapons using low level ingredients, so he said to Xiu Zhuo, “After we go back, I will refine you a better one. Besides, you have not made it to Mahayana phase, it’s no use for you now even if you buy it.”
Xiu Zhuo thought it was right. But then every time when he fancied some magic equipment or runes, Rong Yi all showed a disgusting face. So he said grumpily, “Young master, I am very curious. Is there anything that is good in your eyes at the auction?”
Rong Yi said happily, “Those low level ingredients I saw before we came in.”
Xiu Zhuo, “…”
He found this guy was really unreasonable. Besides, they were here to catch someone, but not to buy magic weapons. So he gave up the idea of buying any magic weapon here and no longer argued with Rong Yi.
Xiu Zhuo looked around and said in a low voice, “My lord, we lost the man in red.”
Yin Jinye scanned the whole yard and really didn’t see a trace of the man in red.
But they came in after him. Now he was gone. It was quite possible he got changed, so they didn’t recognize him.
“Maybe after he came in, he changed his robes and took off his mask.” Rong Yi proposed, “Let’s walk around this place. Maybe we could find him judging through his figure.”
