Chapter 329 - 268: Mysterious Yang Cauldron_2



Mi Yudao pointed to the spheres on his stall, signalling Ming Yuhua to reach out and have a feel of them.

As for Chen Mobai, he had already seen everything. However, as Ming Yuhua curiously picked up one of the Device Nurturing Spheres, Mi Yudao claimed that he had found another functioning Sphere sealed under a Fire Spirit Tree in the last six months.

“Oh? There are spirit plants in this Treasure Trove?”

Upon hearing this, Chen Mobai became quite curious.

His current major cultivation technique, the Wood Technique for eternal life, would greatly benefit from a wood attribute magic artefact of Rank-3.

“The Treasure Trove is the most powerful fire spirit vein of the Immortal Realm. Apart from the Vermillion Fruit Tree, only this Fire Spirit Tree can survive here. However, this tree bears no fruit and is only able to detoxify fire poison. Based on its location under the root system of the tree, I suspect the magic artefact is not of the wood attribute, but of the fire attribute.”

Mi Yudao, drawing on his experience, made a guess that diverged from Chen Mobai’s.

“Sounds reasonable.”

Ming Yuhua, standing by, gave his verdict, agreeing with Mi Yudao.

He was a Rank-2 artifact refiner and treasure appraiser. If it weren’t for his focus on Foundation Establishment this year, he’d be preparing for his Rank-3 examination.

Chen Mobai trusted in his good friend’s professional competence.

With the possibility of a fire attribute, Chen Mobai’s interest was well and truly piqued.

“Did you get anyone to look at it?”

“With you here, why would I need to find anyone else?”

Mi Yudao shook his head—having Chen Mobai look at things with his Spirit Eye saved him a credit.

“After today’s dead-sealed sphere is opened, let’s go and have a look.”

Once they made their agreement, Chen Mobai, accompanied by Ming Yuhua, began browsing through other dead-sealed spheres at other stalls.

The prices varied wildly, from low to high, a complete mess.

These were all cultivated by students after all, and the student council seemed too lazy to manage such things. Thus, the highest asking price was an outrageous 800,000 Good Deed Points, whilst the lowest was merely 10,000.

Chen Mobai picked up the sphere with the highest asking price of 800,000 while wearing his glasses that blocked the Spiritual Light emitted by his Void Spirit Eye.

Compared to the rest, this sphere was peculiar. It seemed that due to the large volume of the sealed magic artefact inside, one could vaguely make out its general shape through the surface of the white jade shell.

“Looks like a furnace.”

Ming Yuhua examined it for a while before hesitantly making a comment.

Chen Mobai nodded. Through his Void Spirit Eye, he easily saw through the dead-sealed sphere to the artefact within—a tripod-shaped magic furnace.

“A furnace” has always been one of the most popular shapes for magic artefacts.

It can be used for alchemy, artifact refining, defense, and attack. Occasionally it can also act as the Array Eye when laying out arrays. It’s considered an all-purpose magic artifact shape.

Ming Yuhua owns a lower-grade furnace-shaped Rank-2 artifact, his work when he passed the Rank-2 artifact refiner examination.

“I want 800,000 Good Deed Points for this dead-sealed sphere. It could possibly yield a Rank-3 Flame Dragon Cauldron, hence the hefty price tag.”

The one who spoke was a slightly yellow-skinned youth who had unshakeable confidence in his sphere.

“That’s too expensive. There are dozens of furnaces in the Treasure Trove. The sealing force of this particular dead-sealed sphere might have weakened over time, and the nurturing spiritual liquid within it started to lose its effect, hence the exposure of the artefact’s power.”

Chen Mobai began to haggle immediately, having gained expertise from previous Fang Market dealings. His swift repartee left Ming Yuhua astounded.

“Humph, the price is set at 800,000. If you’re not buying then others will. At least I can guarantee that a furnace can be opened from my dead-sealed sphere.”

The yellow-skinned youth was hot-tempered. Two other true cultivators of the Foundation Establishment stage were also interested in the most expensive dead-sealed sphere in the plaza, and looked impatient to negotiate.

“Why not just say it’s a Rank-4 True Dragon Ding.”

Chen Mobai shook his head. The moment he touched the sphere, he felt a unique warmth different from other device nurturing spheres—a warmth that exuded from the magical device that even the seal couldn’t contain.

“Senior, I just established my foundation this year, and I’m about to open a ‘Device Nurturing Sphere’. This one you have is not bad, why not give it to me?”

Ming Yuhua playfully made a statement that almost made the pale-looking young man turn red.

Compared to other people who use 100 credits to exchange for device pieces, the newcomers who have established their foundation, like Duanmu Longrong who initiated the ‘Device Nurturing Sphere’, have the highest authority in the Treasure Trove and can open any Sphere in there.

So basically, unless the fair-skinned young man also takes out a device piece and decides to open this special ‘Dead Seal Device’ sphere himself, the newcomer at the foundation establishment stage can directly acquire the ‘Device Nurturing Sphere’.

After all, all the ‘Device Nurturing Spheres’ in the entire Treasure Trove belong to the Daoist Academy.

Originally, selling ‘Dead Seal Devices’ spheres in this place was just because the academy couldn’t be bothered.

Ming Yuhua learned about this during his conversation with Mi Yudao earlier. So, upon seeing the fair-skinned young man charging such a high price and maintaining a bad attitude, he deliberately made such a remark.

“Kind brothers, it wasn’t easy for me to make a bit of Good Deed Points, please, could you both let me be?”

Only at this moment did the fair-skinned young man realize that Chen Mobai and Ming Yuhua were very unfamiliar, and they were seeing each other for the first time here. He was pretty sure they were indeed newcomers at the foundation establishment stage and immediately started pleading pitifully with a wry smile.

“With a price of one million Good Deed Points, I feel like you might want to keep it and open it yourself.”

Chen Mobai and Ming Yuhua could have used the academy’s rules to forcibly open the ‘Device Nurturing Sphere’, but doing so might result in being boycotted by many established students. Hence, they were only safe to make such a statement, with no action behind their words.

They put down the ‘Device Nurturing Sphere’ that had sealed the furnace-shaped magic artifact and started browsing other stalls.

“I feel that the ‘ding’ could be a good thing.”

After they had walked a distance, Ming Yuhua confided to Chen Mobai, who was slightly surprised, thinking that the former had spotted something he wasn’t aware of.

“I established my foundation with the ‘Pure Yang Scroll’. The moment I touched it, I felt warmth in my arm, and my Pure Yang Spiritual Power even became slightly more active. It might be a fire attribute magic artifact that’s very suitable for our lineage.”

“Do you plan on opening it?”

“I intend to, but isn’t Senior Shao Yang in seclusion now? I haven’t got my device piece yet.”

After Ming Yuhua finished speaking, Chen Mobai remained silent for a while, then led him straight to the three-story building of the Student Council.

The person standing guard there wasn’t the familiar Lu Tiansuan, but another fair-skinned boy with squinted eyes and a smiling face.

Chen Mobai had brought Ming Yuhua here, naturally intending to use the ‘Map of Treasures’

“I can see with the ‘Void Spirit Eye’ that the ding looks like this. If you want to open it, it’s best to first search it in the ‘Map of Treasures’.”

Since Ming Yuhua had such an idea, Chen Mobai would surely assist with all his might.

The search fee of two credits was definitely something Ming Yuhua could afford. They watched as the ‘Map of Treasures’ searched out for all the ‘ding’ shaped magic artifacts, and deciphered them one by one. Chen Mobai finally settled upon a Rank-2, high-grade magic artifact, the ‘Mysterious Yang Cauldron’.

Upon searching, they discovered that the previous owner of this artifact was also a cultivator of the ‘Pure Yang Scroll’, and even a master who had cultivated to the eighth layer of Foundation Establishment.

Unfortunately, they ultimately stagnated at the ‘Pure Yang Daoist Body’, and failed to reach the Core Formation stage, even until the end of their lifespan.

No wonder Ming Yuhua’s Pure Yang Spiritual Power reacted when he touched it.

After understanding this, both of them seemed relieved.

The Rank-2 high-grade artifact was very good. In recent years, when no Rank-3 artifact had been opened, Ming Yuhua would, for sure, be willing to open it with his own device piece.

However, he is somewhat unwilling to spend an additional million Good Deed Points.

Although he could use the rules of the academy to forcibly open it, he preferred to negotiate if it was possible.

When they were about to leave, the squint-eyed boy from the Student Council stopped them.

“Are you two the newcomers at the Foundation Establishment level this year?”

“Yes, we are.”

“I like the ‘Mysterious Yang Cauldron’. What about letting me have it?”

Hearing his words, Chen Mobai and Ming Yuhua both frowned.
