Chapter 247 - 159: Dark Omen
“A purple stone? Can that thing be more valuable than the Spirit-Cat’s Eye?”
Su Nan was surprised.
He remembered that the price of the purple stone translated into reality was only 600 Demon Power points.
Although it was higher than the price of most items, it was still far less than the highest-priced Spirit-Cat’s Eye.
The Spirit-Cat’s Eye was on the second shelf, and the purple stone was on the third shelf.
In the foreseeing now, the Spirit-Cat’s Eye did not cause a reaction in his Qi Luck, but instead, the purple stone made his Qi Luck work.
“This should be related to the direction of my foreseeing.”
“This time I wanted to find the most useful thing for me.”
“Now foreseeing has skipped the highest-priced Spirit-Cat’s Eye, which means that the Spirit-Cat’s Eye is not very useful to me, at least not as useful as the purple stone.”
Su Nan thought of a possibility and couldn’t help but show a sharp glint in his eyes.
“Continue!”
Although he already knew that the purple stone was extraordinary, he didn’t stop.
He wanted to see if foreseeing could find more information about the stone.
[You are attracted to the purple stone, and you realize that the value of this purple stone to you may be higher than you thought.]
[You pick up the stone and examine it carefully, only to find that its shape is very regular, which makes you doubt that it is a stone at all.]
[Besides, you don’t find anything unusual about it, and you have to put the stone down temporarily and continue to check the fourth shelf.]
“Not a stone? What could it be?” Su Nan’s eyes showed a strange color.
The foreseeing only gave him a hint and didn’t provide him with any useful information, which made Su Nan’s thoughts run wild.
“Could it be like the Dragon-Turtle Egg from before, looking like a stone but actually an egg?”
He suddenly had an idea.
It wasn’t impossible, the purple stone was oval-shaped, which was the shape of an egg, right?
Moreover, the price of the Dragon-Turtle Egg translated into reality was 580, just about the same as the purple stone.
“Could it be an egg of a strange beast similar to the Dragon Turtle?” Su Nan thought it more and more likely.
[One minute later, you have looked at all the treasures on the fourth shelf again, but you still haven’t found anything you are satisfied with, so you turn to the fifth shelf.]
[Two minutes later, you have also looked at all the treasures on the fifth shelf again, but you still haven’t found anything you are satisfied with, so you continue to the sixth shelf.]
[Three minutes later, you have also looked at all the treasures on the sixth shelf again, but still haven’t found anything useful to you, so you continue to the seventh shelf.]
[End of the second foreseeing, do you want to continue?]
“Continue.”
There is still the last shelf to be looked at, so naturally, he’ll finish looking before making a decision.
[You come to the seventh shelf to have a look. There are the fewest items on this shelf, only twenty.]
[You casually glance over these items, and suddenly, your Qi Luck takes effect again, and you are attracted to a broken arrow.]
“It’s the second-priced broken arrow from before!”
Su Nan’s eyes brightened and showed anticipation.
[The broken arrow seems to have been around for a long time. The arrowhead is covered with thick rust, and you can barely make out its shape. The shaft is even shorter, only half a foot long.]
[You pick up the broken arrow and study it carefully, only to find that, besides being extremely hard, the broken arrow doesn’t seem to have any other special features.]
[You don’t know that inside the arrow, there is a force strong enough to seriously injure a Demon King. As long as you use the fresh blood of demons as a guide, this force can be triggered.]
[After hesitating for a moment, you decide to choose between the purple stone and the broken arrow, and ask the Elderly Keeper of the Treasure Vault about the price of the two items, wanting to buy one of them.]
[The old man tells you that the purple stone is worth 1500 Demon-slaying Points, while the broken arrow is worth 2000 Demon-slaying Points.]
[You ask the old man why they are so expensive. The old man tells you that the purple stone is suspected to be a precious material from ancient times, which can be used to refine artifacts.]
[As for the broken arrow, it is even more bizarre. It seems covered with rust, but it is extremely hard and even King-level Powerhouses would find it difficult to damage it.]
[After hearing this, you finally decide on the broken arrow.]
[After receiving the broken arrow, you don’t leave but exchange some
Demon-slaying Points for items to replenish your vitality.]
[Two minutes later, you spend 900 Demon-slaying Points to buy 5
Life-Extending Pills.]
[Three minutes later, you leave the Treasure Vault.]
[End of the third premonition, do you want to continue?]
“The broken arrow contains the power to seriously injure the Demon King!”
“No wonder it costs 900 demon power points to exchange into reality!”
Su Nan suddenly realized and was once again pleasantly surprised.
Now, he was starting to become very strong, capable of reverse-slaying
Xuan-level beings as a Spirit-level being. But if he encountered a King-level opponent, he wouldn’t have any chance to resist.
Looking again at a collection of items on the seven shelves, he made up his decision.
He stepped forward, picked up the broken arrow, and said, “Senior, I’ll take this.”
The black-clothed old man frowned, thinking Su Nan’s choice of the broken arrow was odd.
“Director Zhang, are you sure you want this broken arrow? It may be a bit hard, but it has no other use, and its value here isn’t the highest either.”
“No need to worry, I’ll take it.” Su Nan didn’t hesitate.
If it were a matter of value, the arrow could only be ranked second.
But in terms of usefulness to him, it could be ranked first.
The power to severely injure King-level Powerhouses.
This was undoubtedly a trump card.
Used well, maybe it couldn’t be used to hunt a Demon King, but hunting Peak of Xuan-level Great Demons should be no problem.
As for the purple stone that he suspected to be an egg, he planned to come back and exchange it when he had enough Demon-slaying Points in the future..
