This time, he came to the black market to sell the Amethyst Wolf King and a large number of king-level magic cores. In the end, he only received 25 million dollars. Even though he was a little depressed because of the high fees… Overall, it was still worth being happy about.
The accidental harvest of the pure-blooded giant dragon and the mammoth was even more worth Lin Xuan being happy about. Forget about the mammoth, pure-blooded giant dragons were rare. This would definitely be a huge help to Lin Xuan’s body’s improvement.
Of course, it wasn’t cheap either. A total of five million had been spent!
Lin Xuan, who had 20 million in his hands, naturally wouldn’t go back just like that. The resources he obtained in the black market would be consumed in the black market. Which would be redundant.
Other than the five million spent, Lin Xuan was prepared to go to the southern district of the black market to take a look. There were flowers, birds, insects, and fishes on the black market. There were many spirit herbs and elixirs, and these kinds of resources were most suitable for Lin Xuan to improve his physical fitness, even if he didn’t buy any heavenly and earthly treasures, it would still be good to buy some supplementary ingredients for spirit food and medicinal cuisine.
Riding on the mechanical express car built into the black market, he passed through countless sceneries along the way. When he entered the Southern District of the black market, a strong medicinal fragrance mixed with spiritual energy wafted past his nose. After taking a deep breath, Lin Xuan hurriedly put on his gas mask. The countless medicinal fragrances mixed together could be formed into a poisonous miasma. It was the principle that medicine being thirty percent poisonous could be sold here.
In the end, most of them were spiritual herbs. The flowers and plants that were originally poisonous were isolated very well. The poisonous miasma in the air did not possess an extremely strong lethality. If one inhaled too much of it, it would only cause one’s body to develop drug resistance. Therefore, one would only need to use a gas mask to protect themself.
This was also because the black market needed to be hidden. If a lot of spiritual herbs were released, the first thing that would be attracted would be wild monsters. After that, other people would also sense the location of the black market. Inevitably, some people would have some wicked ideas and bad things may happen.
After entering the southern region of the black market, Lin Xuan got off the vehicle. He strolled around and bought some common medicinal herbs from time to time. Most of the common medicinal herbs here were old and had profound medicinal effects. Therefore, they were not expensive. After all, Taixia Country had several pocket dimensions that could change time. Common medicinal materials that needed time to accumulate medicinal strength had long been discovered.
What was more precious was that he found brilliant dragon-blood grass and elephant bamboo shoot. Lin Xuan bought them with heart-wrenching pain. After spending four million dollars, he only had 16 million dollars left.
This was intense!
Lin Xuan was prepared to buy some thousand-year-old vermilion fruits, ten-thousand-year-old azure, and other heavenly and earthly treasures. He did not expect himself to spend money so quickly. He did not know if the remaining money was enough.
As he continued forward, he saw a small potted plant shop. There was a pot of spirit concentrating epiphyllum that Lin Xuan was very interested in. It was sold for twelve million. There was a bamboo shop and a thunder bamboo used for body refining that was sold for 14 million. Something that made Lin Xuan even more envious was that there were many more types of body refining items here that could really help him improve himself. A hundred birds pavilion, a magpie of enlightenment, and many more! It would not be sold unless it was fated to be for him… right?
Along the way, Lin Xuan started to feel exhausted from shopping. He say many things he wanted but could not afford them. He thought that his 10 million dollars were a big deal, but it turned out to not be as much as he hoped for.
Lin Xuan — who was sitting on a public chair to rest for a while — suddenly heard the sound of firecrackers coming from afar. There were even many people who ran over with interest. Lin Xuan was also a person who liked to join in on the fun, so he walked over curiously.
A spirit plant merchant with considerable wealth entered the Imperial City’s ability user black market and accepted all sorts of deals to buy and sell spirit plants. At the same time, they sold a lot of low-end spirit plants and a small number of mid-end spirit plants. As for high-end spirit plants, they were only available for special VIP users.
They even launched a gambling card event!
The gambling rules were similar to what Lin Xuan played in his previous life. The cards would not be revealed and one would have to pick and choose randomly what cards one might get. These cards could be earned from various dungeons, treasure chests, or from random settings.
It was just like opening a treasure chest and discovering that it was still another exciting treasure chest.
Gambling existed in every world. People who were unwilling to gamble would sell their gambling cards and transfer the risk to someone else. The person on the receiving end will be either real luck or unlucky. They either opened skills, martial art cards, or divine weapons, or they got a dead branch or an ordinary stone.
Everything was up to fate!
The gambling card activity carried out by this area was a one million entrance fee for each person. They could enter and choose a gambling card. If they wanted to enter a second time, they would need two million. Moreover, the average price of gambling cards was around 1.5 million.
The theme of this gambling event was spiritual plants. In order to make a name for themselves, they collected a large number of gambling cards; some were good, and some were trash. There were nearly 100,000 cards, and now they were all spread out for everyone to choose from.
“Heh, sure, sure. Go in and pick a gambling card, then resell it and sell it. It costs 500,000!”
“Stingy. I can only pick one, but today will definitely be my lucky day!”
“Heh, look at them go… I can use my metaphysics to…”
Lin Xuan heard a person speak, but from his familiar movements and language, it could be seen that it was his form teacher, Zhang Minghao. So this was a metaphysics calculation?
Shaking his head, Lin Xuan also paid a one million admission fee and entered the gambling venue.
He was naturally irreconcilable with gambling and drugs, but just as he was about to leave, the fire crow magic pattern on his body — which had always been treated as a tattoo — became restless. What did this mean?
The high-level heaven rank three-legged golden crow magic pattern must be somewhat mystical or lucky.
It seemed that the magic pattern could sense something. Firstly, it could sense a natural enemy, and secondly, it could sense something that could be extremely helpful to him.
After thinking for a long time, Lin Xuan decided to take the chance and see what happens. The right choice was to take the initiative into his hands. As for whether to use it or not, that was another choice!
The entire venue was very large, and there were many people carefully selecting gambling cards. They picked up a gambling card and carefully studied the patterns on it, wondering if they had seen similar patterns or if they felt similar to a spiritual plant, from time to time, they would discuss it with others beside them.
The environment’s enthusiasm was high. Lin Xuan saw his form teacher holding a gambling card and bragging to a stranger who was intently listening.
After entering the venue, the intense feeling from the magic patterns on Lin Xuan’s body was gone, but he could still sense a certain connection to something.
