Chapter 515: Unknown Halo Item

One side of this thing was the "Order" character in gold seal script, and the other side was many engraved runes that he couldn't understand; the whole token felt light and airy in his hand!

Just based on this texture, he could conclude that this thing was definitely extraordinary, but using his spiritual sense to sense it, there was no pressure of a high-grade treasure, which was truly strange!

To be honest, he had seen quite a few good things, but this time he couldn't figure out what this token was, or what its function was, even after looking at it back and forth!

So, he simply asked the stall owner, "Fellow Daoist, what is this token? Why does it feel so strange?"

The middle-aged stall owner sized him up before saying, "I don't know what this thing is either! But I know it's definitely not simple; if Fellow Daoist knows its specific function, I hope you will inform me, and I will thank you with five thousand low-grade spirit stones!

If Fellow Daoist doesn't want to inform me but wants to buy it, then you need to use ten thousand low-grade spirit stones to purchase it; I won't sell it for even one less!"

After speaking, he kept staring at Lin Zhangqing, but he was destined to be disappointed, because Lin Zhangqing himself didn't know what this thing was! However, Lin Zhangqing was also pondering: is it worth it to use ten thousand low-grade spirit stones to buy a halo item whose function is very difficult to know?

After considering it, Lin Zhangqing still said, "This Fellow Daoist, I indeed don't know what this thing is; I feel it might be a treasure! So I am somewhat interested in it, but ten thousand low-grade spirit stones is truly too much; why don't you make it cheaper!"

The middle-aged stall owner saw that what Lin Zhangqing said was still relatively sincere, and the impression he gave him was not bad.

In fact, he already had a rough judgment about this thing in his own heart!

This should be a special treasure; either it was a key to open some cave or secret treasury, or it was a token representing some high-grade cultivator! These two functions, for him, were difficult to cash out into cultivation resources; the first possibility, an unknown cave or secret treasury, might not be known where it was for a lifetime! And if it were a token of some high-grade cultivator, this thing was also obtained by him through extraordinary means; taking it to that person would be equivalent to seeking his own death!

Besides, he didn't know who this high-grade cultivator was or what the specific situation was! So he was actually more inclined to sell this thing directly and exchange it for cultivation resources, which was the most practical!

Just now, saying that if he knew the function of this thing, he would give five thousand spirit stones as a reward was just one of his strategies!

But no matter how he tossed about, there were very few people interested in this token, and after listening to his rhetoric, there wasn't even one cultivator who dared to open their mouth to bargain!

Therefore, after consideration, he still decided that it was better to put it in his pocket for peace of mind, so he asked, "Then how much do you think this token is appropriate? Think clearly before speaking; if there is no sincerity at all, then I would rather let it smash in my hands than sell it to you!"

Lin Zhangqing heard him say this and knew that there was a play, and the stall owner's willingness to sell was still relatively strong.

After careful deliberation, he decided to cut half for him first, and then cut half again to take the integer! So he said, "I feel the grade of this thing should be around second-grade superior, so I'll offer thirty thousand low-grade spirit stones! What does Fellow Daoist think?"

The middle-aged stall owner heard this, glared at him, and said, "Not good! I also feel that this thing should be a fifth-grade superior magic treasure! It's impossible for us to close the deal with the number you opened; there's no sincerity at all; I actually think eighty thousand low-grade spirit stones is a more appropriate number!"

As long as he could bargain, it proved that the boss really had the intention to sell, so Lin Zhangqing continued, "Then let's do this! Let's take a step back and take a middle number; fifty thousand low-grade spirit stones, if it's possible, let's close the deal now!"

The middle-aged cultivator heard this and hesitated instead, worrying if he had misjudged and been picked up for a leak, or lost a treasure!

So he took the token in his hand and sized it up again, but still had no other discoveries.

Finally, he made up his mind and said, "Alright! I agree, let's close the deal with fifty-five thousand low-grade spirit stones!"

Lin Zhangqing was overjoyed in his heart, but didn't dare to show it, only speeding up, paying five hundred and fifty middle-grade spirit stones to the middle-aged cultivator.

After getting the token from the stall owner's hand, Lin Zhangqing finally felt relieved.

Now, at this cost, he had obtained a halo item, which he could accept!

He put the token back into the storage bag and then continued to stroll; he knew that the street stall boss was still observing him! So he didn't want to arouse the stall owner's suspicion, so pretending that nothing had happened and continuing to stroll was the best choice! Soon he adjusted his emotions, and as if nothing had happened, he made a move at quite a few stalls and bought over a hundred spirit medicines that could continue to be planted.

And he also bought some second-grade talisman-making materials; this was prepared as a gift for his mother when he returned in the future!

Spending two or three hours, he finally finished strolling through all the street stalls; in fact, there were gains later on! At a stall selling young beasts, Lin Zhangqing saw a cub of an Earth-Shaking Bear, and on its body, there was a relatively dim earth-yellow halo.

Proving that this little fellow's potential was okay, but Lin Zhangqing didn't like this kind of clumsy big block of a spirit beast! This kind of spirit beast consumed more resources, but after cultivating to the second grade, it might not be able to defeat the Purple Crystal Scorpions or the Spirit-Shocking Cicadas! So he really didn't like this kind of spirit beast and had always opposed blood-binding this kind of spirit beast.

Therefore, he didn't buy that Earth-Shaking Bear cub, but chose to ignore it and leave!

After circling several times in the crisscrossing alleys of the market, confirming that there was no tail behind him, he returned to the inn where he lived!

In fact, he was already a bit impatient; his heart was itching, and he wanted to go back to study the token he had just obtained! Fortunately, this time it was still smooth; with his Foundation Establishment mid-stage cultivation base, spending tens of thousands of spirit stones at the street stall square was not too eye-catching!

Therefore, he did not purchase that Earth-Shaking Bear cub, but chose to ignore it and leave.

After circling several times through the crisscrossing alleys of the market, and confirming there was no tail behind him, he returned to the inn where he was staying.

In truth, he was already a bit impatient; his heart had been itching to go back and study that newly acquired token. Fortunately, things went quite smoothly this time; with his Foundation Establishment mid-stage cultivation, spending a few tens of thousands of spirit stones at the stall square was not too eye-catching.
