Chapter 308: Refining
Regarding Yinling's kind reminder, Song Qingming nodded very politely. Successfully obtaining this Silver Sand Stone this time could already be considered as settling a major matter on his body, so his mood was also very cheerful now, and he even took out a few low-tier spirit talismans from his body to reward her.
"Luck is not bad today, and you have a share of the credit. These little gadgets are given to you."
"Thank you, Senior, for your grace! This junior wishes Senior can still get what you want in the following auction!"
Originally thinking that her harvest in this auction would not be very large, Yinling didn't expect that Song Qingming would actually take down this expensive Silver Sand Stone at the end. For her, this was a considerable income, which was enough to make her very happy in her heart. She didn't expect that Song Qingming would also take the initiative to reward her with a few spirit talismans. It made her, behind the mask, very happy, and she hurriedly poured another cup of spiritual tea she had collected for a long time for Song Qingming.
"Help me ask if I can leave early. I can bear the teleportation fee alone."
"What!! The auction still has the finale spiritual objects that haven't come out yet. Why is Senior in such a hurry to leave?" Hearing that Song Qingming wanted to leave now, Yinling, who was full of surprise, couldn't help but ask.
"Hmm! You heard it right. The things I want are already in hand, and the spirit stones on me have been spent almost all. Even if there are good things later, I can't take out spirit stones. Things I can't get, watching them is meaningless. It's better to leave early, and the road is safer."
Hearing Song Qingming say this, Yinling finally understood, nodded happily, and left the private room.
After Yinling left, Song Qingming's attention was attracted to the middle of the auction again. These last two finale spiritual objects were even more precious than the Silver Sand Stone Song Qingming took down, and they were auctioned at higher prices of five or six thousand spirit stones respectively.
Before the last spiritual object was auctioned, Yinling, who had left for a while, returned to the private room very happily.
"Senior, this junior just went down to ask. As long as you are willing to pay the teleportation spirit stones, you can start the teleportation array alone for you. Does Senior want to leave immediately? Shall I lead you to the teleportation hall?"
"Good! I will go directly by myself. You don't need to follow me, just stay here!" Song Qingming nodded at Yinling with a smile, and then left the private room directly.
Taking advantage of the fact that everyone's attention was still on the last spiritual object, Song Qingming walked down from the second floor quietly alone and came directly to the place where the teleportation array was guarded on the side of the auction.
Because Yinling had already come to inquire about this matter before, these people, after hearing Song Qingming state his intention, quickly checked his identity, and after collecting the spirit stones, directly started the teleportation array leading to the vicinity of Yangshan Market, sending Song Qingming away from the auction site in advance.
After getting the Silver Sand Stone, Song Qingming, fearing that someone with a heart would target him, hurriedly spent some spirit stones to spend money to avoid disaster and left the auction first. Doing so, although it required spending some money, was also the most worry-free, and would not bring him too many unnecessary troubles.
Although the current Song Qingming's ability to fight magic is not weak, even if facing an ordinary late-stage Foundation Establishment cultivator, he has some confidence that he can successfully escape. However, he still wants to avoid battle as much as possible. The entire cultivation world is a place where crouching tigers and hidden dragons are. If he accidentally bumps into a high-ranking person, Song Qingming has only had his current cultivation after decades of bitter cultivation. He doesn't want to lose his life so casually. Being careful when acting outside is never wrong.
After returning from the Tiandan Alliance, Song Qingming did not return to Yangshan Market, but went directly north, heading towards the Floating Yunshan Range in the north.
More than half a month later, Song Qingming, who arrived at the agreed place in the Floating Yunshan Range, used the contact token again to see the Demon King Long Feng, whom he hadn't seen for more than a year.
"Kid! Is it because you couldn't find the refining materials I needed that you ran back to bargain with me."
Seeing Song Qingming, Long Feng seemed to have guessed his purpose long ago and directly said what he thought.
Song Qingming smiled and didn't say much, directly taking out the Silver Sand Stone on his body and throwing it to Long Feng.
"This... this is Silver Sand Stone? Good kid, you actually found the refining materials I needed so quickly. Haha! This old man really didn't misjudge you back then."
After seeing a large piece of Silver Sand Stone taken out by Song Qingming from his body, Long Feng, who had just been full of disdain, instantly changed his face and opened his mouth to praise Song Qingming, whom he had somewhat looked down upon before, very well.
"Senior, these words are too polite. Since I promised you, I will naturally do my best. However, this Silver Sand Stone is indeed a rare spiritual object in the world. It was not easy for me to obtain this object, which can be considered as Senior being blessed by heaven."
Faced with this attitude of Long Feng, Song Qingming had long expected it. This guy's way of doing things is not as unpredictable as Huo Feng's. Long Feng's character is relatively direct, and he basically puts what he likes or dislikes on his face. After dealing with him a few times, Song Qingming quickly understood his character clearly.
Compared to Huo Feng, although Long Feng's words were not so polite, Song Qingming was actually not so afraid when facing him, and was more willing to trade with him. This was why, even if Long Feng didn't directly threaten him, Song Qingming still kept the matter he promised Long Feng in his heart and diligently helped him find the thing he wanted most.
In fact, without Song Qingming saying much, Long Feng also knew the value of Silver Sand Stone. When he proposed this condition to Song Qingming back then, he actually never thought that Song Qingming could really bring this object to him.
The reason he said this was actually just because he hadn't thought of what he really wanted Song Qingming to help him do, so he casually brought up a requirement that was almost impossible for him to complete, so that Song Qingming would not forget the favor he owed him back then.
Unexpectedly, Song Qingming really brought the things this time, which really caught Long Feng completely off guard, making him speak somewhat unnaturally now.
"Little Friend Song, since you can find such a large piece of Silver Sand Stone, this old man doesn't want to take too much advantage of you. How about this! This piece of Silver Sand Stone will have some left over after I refine a magic treasure. Do you have any magic tools on you that need strengthening? This old man can help you refine some silver sand into your magic tools. This can be considered as us being even."
"If it can be so, then I thank Senior. I didn't expect that Senior, as a demon clan, could also have such profound refining techniques." Hearing Long Feng say this, Song Qingming was also somewhat surprised. He didn't expect Long Feng to be a high-grade refiner. He thought Long Feng would go to other more powerful demon kings to help refine magic treasures after getting the materials.
