Chapter 206: Chapter 206: The Untainted Foundation Building Elixir Priced at 5000 Spirit Stones
However, this was just the beginning…
After that man left, a few others spotted Lin Jing’s stall…
These people were clearly in a group, and after some discussion, each of them bought a Pure Elixir Medicine.
After these people finished purchasing the Elixir Medicines, they left…
Since Lin Jing’s stall was in a rather remote location, almost at the very end of the street, there weren’t many visitors…
But Lin Jing wasn’t in a hurry; his main purpose was to wait for Ning Yue and the others to arrive.
As long as the news of the Elixir Valley Heir spread out, there would be no lack of visitors.
Sure enough, not long after those people left…
The news of the Elixir Valley Heir’s appearance once again began to circulate in the black market.
As more and more people heard the news and came, Lin Jing’s stall was once again surrounded.
The scene got very lively for a while…
The thirty-some Elixir Medicines that Lin Jing brought out this time were quickly snatched up by the crowd.
Had it not been for Lin Jing’s prior restriction that each person could only buy two at most,
those Elixir Medicines would have probably been gone much earlier.
With the rest of the Elixir Medicines sold out, and just as everyone was losing interest…
Lin Jing took out the last Elixir Medicine from his Storage Bag and said to the crowd in front of his stall:
“Fellow Daoists, this is the last Elixir Medicine I brought out this time.”
“The Pure Foundation Building Elixir…”
In fact, as soon as Lin Jing took out the Elixir Medicine, some sharp-eyed individuals noticed that it was a Pure Foundation Building Elixir.
The value of a Pure Foundation Building Elixir was much greater than that of the other Elixir Medicines.
Everyone’s eyes shone as they looked at the Pure Foundation Building Elixir.
“Fellow Daoist, is this the only Pure Foundation Building Elixir?”
Soon, someone couldn’t hold back and began to ask.
Lin Jing nodded and said:
“Yes…”
“There is only this one Pure Foundation Building Elixir.”
No sooner had Lin Jing finished speaking, another voice rose from the crowd:
“May I know how you intend to sell this Pure Foundation Building Elixir, Fellow Daoist?”
“Is it still 100 Medium Grade Spirit Stones?”
As soon as this person finished speaking, a corpulent cultivator spoke up to refute:
“100 Medium Grade Spirit Stones, what are you thinking?”
“This is a Foundation Building Elixir, a Pure Foundation Building Elixir…”
Lin Jing looked up to see who had spoken…
He saw that the cultivator was exceptionally corpulent, taking up the space of three people by himself.
Moreover, this person wasn’t wearing a Black Gauze Bamboo Hat to conceal himself.
It seemed unnecessary, given his rare physique; there was probably no need for him to hide.
After speaking, he turned back to Lin Jing and said:
“Fellow Daoist, I’ll take the Pure Foundation Building Elixir, name your price…”
No sooner had he finished speaking…
The person who had been refuted immediately followed up with an explanation:
“I was just asking a question; I didn’t say I would definitely buy it with 100 Medium Grade Spirit Stones…”
“Of course, I know that the Pure Foundation Building Elixir is valuable…”
After explaining and feeling it wasn’t enough, he went on to angrily refute the corpulent cultivator:
“You want it?”
“On what grounds do you want it? Because you have a big face?”
At these words…
The surroundings immediately erupted into quiet “pu-chi” laughter…
They were obviously amused by the comment.
Lin Jing looked back at the corpulent cultivator…
Goodness…
The man’s face was indeed not small, and the fat on his face was sagging, almost becoming wide…
Lin Jing almost burst out laughing.
But the cultivator with the big face, as if a sore spot had been poked, immediately yelled at the other cultivator:
“That is the cultivation technique I practice, the technique…”
Following that, the two of them started arguing on the spot.
However, given that this was the black market, no one dared to make a move.
The scene became exceedingly chaotic for a moment…
It seemed that many people had their eyes on the Pure Foundation Building Elixir.
At this point, Lin Jing had to speak up.
“Everyone, please quiet down…”
Seeing Lin Jing speak, the two who were arguing also quieted down, turned their heads away, and stopped looking at each other.
Even though they were not willing to concede to one another, they still had to give face to the Elixir Valley Heir.
Then, everyone turned their attention to Lin Jing.
Lin Jing surveyed the crowd, ready to present his solution…
Just then, his gaze shifted through the crowd and unexpectedly landed on Ning Yue.
At this moment, Ning Yue was walking towards this place…
No doubt, they had arrived here after hearing the news about the Elixir Valley Heir.
Following Ning Yue was Li Tangyu, and an elderly man in a purple robe with all white hair and beard.
This elder with the visage of a youthful old man led the way, and if Lin Jing wasn’t mistaken, it must be the Ning Family’s patriarch.
However, Lin Jing merely glanced at them before moving on, without lingering his gaze on the group.
Next, Lin Jing spoke to the people in front of him:
“Since you all want it, there is no point in arguing. The owner of this Pure Foundation Building Elixir will be the highest bidder.”
As Lin Jing’s words ended, the rotund cultivator who had been called ‘big-faced’ immediately said:
“I bid 300 Midium Grade Spirit Stones.”
But no sooner had his words fallen than the cultivator who had been sparring with him also called out a price:
“I bid 400…”
“500, Midium Grade Spirit Stones…”
The rotund cultivator followed up.
“800 Midium Grade Spirit Stones, I really want this Pure Foundation Building Elixir…”
At this point, one cultivator wearing an ancient bronze mask spoke up.
A bid of 800 Midium Grade Spirit Stones indeed wasn’t low.
Even the rotund cultivator and his bidding rival stopped raising the price.
Shortly after the voice of the man in the ancient bronze mask fell, another voice came from behind the crowd.
“My young friend, pardon the intrusion…”
“This old one has business to discuss with the Elixir Valley friend today…”
“I offer 5000 Midium Grade Spirit Stones to purchase this Pure Foundation Building Elixir.”
As the voice ended, everyone turned their heads to look backward.
They saw Ning Yue and the other two…
Since none of the three had made any attempt at concealing themselves,
Lin Jing saw them very clearly…
The one who spoke was indeed the Ning Family patriarch.
5000 Midium Grade Spirit Stones, far exceeding the value of the Pure Foundation Building Elixir; it seemed that he wouldn’t offer such a high price if he didn’t have an important matter.
That’s what everyone thought…
Seeing Ning Yue and the others approaching the stall, the crowd that had been jostling close together quickened to part to the sides and cleared a path.
At this moment, none of the onlookers left; they all wanted to witness the moment of the Pure Elixir Medicine transaction.
The Ning Family’s patriarch reached the stall and directly took out a small Storage Bag meant for transactions and handed it to Lin Jing.
“Here are 5000 Midium Grade Spirit Stones, young friend, please verify…”
Even Lin Jing had not expected the Ning Family patriarch to start off by handing over 5000 Midium Grade Spirit Stones upon his arrival…
This move stunned not only the surrounding crowd but even Lin Jing himself for a moment.
“He actually meant it…”
“He really plans to use 5000 Midium Grade Spirit Stones to buy this Pure Elixir Medicine.”
A shock ran through the crowd, some even exclaimed aloud.
Meanwhile, Lin Jing pondered inwardly:
“I wonder what Ning Yue told him when he returned; the Ning Family patriarch has yet to bring up the matter of the seed, and yet he is offering 5000 Midium Grade Spirit Stones right off the bat.”
“Now it seems that the issue with the seed hasn’t been resolved by the Li Family either.”
“The situation doesn’t look too good…”
