Chapter 642
Li Yi walked in the market of North Waste City with E Ji and Su Ji. Here he could always see many goods he had never seen before. These goods were rare treasures in other worlds, but here they seemed sparse and ordinary.
Li Yi saw some merchants displaying boxes of pearls. Even in the daytime, they emitted brilliant light. They were not gemstones, but pearls nurtured in the bodies of exotic beasts, containing massive cosmic energy.
It's just that in the savage world, such precious pearls can only be used as decorative jewelry. If they were placed in the immortal cultivation world or the Dharma-Ending cultivation world, these things could refine precious elixirs and improve strength.
He also saw many things that were born with divine manifestations, such as medicinal herbs that had turned into living beings, with hands and feet, able to run and move, but they were trapped by beast tendons and could not break free.
He also saw some metals that were shining with divine light. Although he didn't know what they were, they could be used to forge weapons.
There were also many ancient and mysterious bones, perhaps from gods, perhaps from terrifying and powerful exotic beasts, and even after countless years of death, the remaining power could not be underestimated.
Unfortunately, since Li Yi stepped into cultivation, he had always been thinking about how to improve his strength and didn't know much about these things.
However, adhering to the principle of coming here, he still bought some treasures.
"Merchant, how much gold for this box of pearls?" Li Yi walked over and asked.
"A box of pearls only costs one hundred gold." The merchant saw Li Yi patronizing and immediately beamed with joy, then very enthusiastically reported a very reasonable price.
Li Yi picked up a pearl in the box and looked at it.
Feeling the astonishing energy emitted from it, he asked again: "Are there better pearls?"
Hearing this, the merchant immediately said: "Naturally, there are better pearls. Please wait a moment, distinguished guest."
He was very sincere and felt that this God-Blood Warrior looked down on his ordinary goods, so he immediately ordered a servant to fetch better goods.
Soon.
A servant took another ancient box and walked out.
After the merchant took it and opened it, an astonishing energy fluctuation was immediately emitted. At the same time, the surroundings were filled with a golden energy field. This energy field covered dozens of meters around, instantly attracting the attention of many people.
"Sure enough..." Li Yi felt a chill in his heart.
This is a mystic object.
He had felt it before, the massive energy contained in the pearls, but these energies were not enough to form an energy field and did not reach the level of a mystic object. They would slowly consume and dissipate over time, and finally become an ordinary piece of jewelry.
So Li Yi tried to ask if there were better pearls.
Unexpectedly, the other party really took out something that surprised him.
"This is the Candle Eye Pearl, worth a thousand gold." The merchant said with a smile, and soon covered the box again, covering the pale golden divine light. If Li Yi were not a God-Blood Warrior, he wouldn't even be willing to take out such a treasure.
A thousand gold?
This price was already very high, and it could be considered a truly precious treasure in the entire market.
And there were only a handful of people who had the strength and were willing to spend a thousand gold to buy a pearl. It was precisely because of this reason that such a famous pearl had not been sold.
Although the merchants in this world don't understand mystic objects, their vision is not bad. They know this is a good thing and different from other pearls.
"A thousand gold? I won't bargain with you. You give me two more boxes of ordinary pearls, and I'll buy this." Li Yi was not good at bargaining, just wanting to use two boxes of ordinary pearls as a gift.
Hearing this, the merchant beamed with joy and immediately said: "Understood."
Afterward, he signaled Li Yi to take any two boxes of jewelry he liked.
Li Yi didn't drag his feet either. He immediately took out ten pieces of red gold, handed them to the merchant, and then directly put the Candle Eye Pearl and the two boxes of ordinary pearls into the Five-Element Bracelet, completing this transaction.
The merchant took the ten pieces of red gold, and while happy, he noticed the means of disappearing out of thin air, and immediately stared at the bracelet emitting five-colored light in Li Yi's hand.
The experienced merchant instinctively realized that the bracelet in Li Yi's hand was a rare treasure.
"Does the distinguished guest have any more of this?" The merchant couldn't help but ask.
Li Yi said: "Does the merchant want to acquire my storage vessel? This one is not for sale, but I have others."
As he said, he took out a storage magic tool, which was an exquisite jade thumb ring.
Although it looked ordinary, it had space inside.
"How much gold?" The merchant asked immediately.
Li Yi smiled and said: "Exchange it with a thousand-gold pearl."
He knew that things are precious because they are rare, but selling storage magic tools is an irrational behavior. However, if it is used to exchange for a mystic object, then he is very willing.
"I only have one thousand-gold pearl, but I can go look for it." The merchant's eyes lit up and he immediately said: "If I find it, where should I look for the distinguished guest?"
"I am a guest of the merchant Master Xiu Xiang's house. If you have a thousand-gold pearl, you can come to Master Xiu Xiang's house to look for me." Li Yi said.
"Understood." The merchant of pearls immediately responded.
Li Yi didn't say much, put away the storage magic tool, and left with E Ji and Su Ji.
And after Li Yi left, the merchant of pearls immediately began to ask other merchants if they had any thousand-gold pearls. He was very regretful now, wondering why he didn't acquire a few more such pearls.
In the experience of this merchant of pearls, he had seen quite a few such pearls.
It was just that they were hard to sell, so he didn't dare to acquire more.
"Ten pieces of red gold for a mystic object, this is simply a huge profit for me." Li Yi felt good at this moment. He had fallen in love with this world.
The resources are so abundant. As long as they are used well, his future cultivation will be smooth sailing.
Adding this Candle Eye Pearl, Li Yi now has quite a few complete mystic objects in his hand, including the Luan Phoenix Feather, Dragon Scale, World Heart Gem, and the Knife Coin that is being repaired.
"I'll give you these two pearls." Li Yi then took out two shining pearls and handed them to E Ji and Su Ji respectively.
After all, they accompanied him on a trip, so he should give them a small gift.
"Thank you, Da Yi."
E Ji and Su Ji took the pearls and were very happy. They felt that such pearls should be decorated and worn on their bodies for a long time.
"Let's continue to look elsewhere." Li Yi nodded slightly and continued to walk in the market.
Soon.
He followed the route in his memory and walked forward. Before long, he arrived at the market selling exotic beasts. The exotic beasts here were endless. Some had already been slaughtered, their fur made into armor, and their meat piled on the chopping board for people to buy and sell.
Many people in North Waste City came here to buy meat, so it was more lively than before and slightly noisy.
Li Yi saw a ten-meter-tall Shanyi, whose feet were trapped, head cut off, and then decomposed into large pieces of meat, placed before him for people to choose. The strength of that Shanyi was not weak, about the same as the one he had tamed.
But it was useless to be powerful. In this world, no matter how powerful the exotic beast is, it will be hunted.
The flesh and blood even showed a faint luster, crystal clear.
And there were many people willing to buy Shanyi meat.
Because Shanyi meat has a magical effect: it can detoxify. And in this savage world, poisoning is a very bad thing, so some people will store some Shanyi meat as an antidote to be prepared.
Besides that, he also saw a dragon with a single horn on its head, trapped and placed aside. A guest was negotiating the price with the merchant, preparing to buy the single-horned dragon.
Li Yi joined in the fun and spent ten gold to buy a large piece of Shanyi meat and threw it into the Five-Element Bracelet.
He originally wanted to buy that single-horned dragon, but that guest had already paid the money one step ahead of him, so he had to give up and continue to turn around elsewhere.
He wanted to buy some powerful exotic beasts and store them in the Five-Element Bracelet to see if there was a chance to tame them. If it really didn't work, slaughtering them for meat would also be fine.
The Five-Element Bracelet is a Dao artifact, and the space inside allows living things to exist, which is different from other storage magic tools.
"If I could buy a true dragon, that would be great." Li Yi muttered to himself.
A true dragon, if it could be tamed, that would be incredible.
It's just a pity that he didn't see a true dragon in the market. What he saw more were flood dragons, and they were all very young, only about three hundred years old, not as good as the one Master Xiu Xiang bought when he first came.
Seeing nothing that caught his eye, Li Yi didn't spend money indiscriminately. He planned to go to the slave market to take a look.
However, just as he was about to leave, he suddenly saw a burst of roars and bellows of wild beasts coming from the market ahead. The ground was shaking, and people nearby were also rushing toward this side, seemingly avoiding danger.
"Which merchant is so incompetent to let a fire beast run out."
"Leave here quickly, that fire beast is powerful, and ordinary warriors cannot defeat it."
"My goods were destroyed, that was goods worth one hundred gold."
Various sounds kept ringing.
And in the chaos, suddenly, a heat wave came from the air. Wherever it passed, many things were directly burned, and some people who were close were directly turned into coke.
Afterward, Li Yi saw a pillar of red fire rushing toward this side. This pillar of fire was like a giant wave, drowning many people in it in an instant.
But the people of this world are born powerful. He saw people die in the fire, but also people who resisted the scorching of the fire, rushed out alive, and then quickly pulled away to escape.
"Ride the clouds."
Seeing this, Li Yi immediately performed the Dao technique. A cloud supported him and the two concubines, E Ji and Su Ji, and flew up quickly, avoiding the impact.
After reaching the sky, he saw that the market in the distance had become a sea of fire.
In the sky full of fire, a giant beast covered in red scales was going crazy and angry, wantonly spitting fire. The fire was not ordinary; the terrifying high temperature could melt the ground, and the place where it stood had become a land of magma.
However, at the same time, there were also powerful warriors, stepping on magma, holding big knives and axes, rushing up to fight with that fire beast.
Terrifying power erupted, and the air waves rolled up the fire and raged.
Although the fire beast was injured and had some shackles that had not been taken off, it was still unparalleled in strength. With a roar and a shake, it knocked away powerful warriors one by one.
"The strength of this exotic beast is not bad. No wonder it could forcibly break free from the shackles and make a scene in the market." Li Yi said calmly.
He had turned around the market before. So far, this was the most powerful exotic beast he had seen here.
Of course, the dead ones don't count.
