Killing God - Chapter 436

Chapter 436 Starlight Grass

“Dragon bone?”

Shen Shi was stunned. He couldn’t help but lower his head and look at the ordinary stone bone on the table. He didn’t know what to say for a moment.

Dragon bones, as the name implied, were naturally dragon bones. Anything that could be related to dragons was basically precious in the Primordial Chaos Cultivation World. The dragon race had always been a powerful and mysterious race since the ancient times. It was neither human nor demonic, seemingly similar to a demonic beast, but its status far exceeded that of a demonic beast. It even occupied an extremely high position in the myths and legends of all races.

The most obvious example was the demon race that was as powerful as the Heavenly Yao Royal Court of the past. In the ancient myths and legends that declared themselves orthodox, it was believed that after the Giant God Pangu, who created all the races in the world, created the Heavenly Yao Saint Race, the three great races of Ghost, Spirit, and Dragon, divided into the Underworld, Azure Heaven, and Water Realms. In comparison, the status of humans in the myths of the demon race was basically the same as that of ants.

Similar things happened in the legends of the human race. Basically, the human race was the descendants of the Heavenly Family and True Gods. During this process, the Giant Dragon Race was also an extremely noble and powerful existence. In other words, even though the dragons had never truly ruled the vast Primordial Chaos World in history, this powerful race had an extremely high status in history. No matter which race ruled the Primordial Chaos Realms, they maintained a certain amount of respect for the dragons.

However, today, the powerful and noble dragon race had long disappeared from the long river of history. For many years, no one in the Primordial Chaos Realm had seen the figure of a giant dragon. It was said that ten thousand years ago, during the bloody battle between human demons, there were occasional figures of the dragon race. However, that was also a vague rumor. No one knew the truth anymore.

In short, the powerful dragon had long disappeared from the Primordial Chaos Continent, and the things left behind by the dragons were becoming more and more precious and rare. Although the stone bone in front of him looked very ordinary, if it was really the dragon bone that the monk had mentioned, its value would also seem to be extraordinary.

However, no one in the world had seen the dragon race for thousands of years, and Shen Shi was the exception.

He had personally witnessed the remnant body and soul of the Primordial Silver Dragon in the Soul Suppressing Abyss of the High Mausoleum Mountain, and had even spoken to him a few words. In the end, he had even helped the Yin Dragon secretly shadow the Ancient Era’s Shaman and Ghost. Recalling the enormous body of the Primordial Yin Dragon beneath the Soul Suppressing Abyss and looking down at the stone bone that was no less than the length of an arm, Shen Shi immediately felt that the bone was too small.

How could the giant dragon race have such a large body with such small bones?

Therefore, when he looked up at the monk again, a hint of suspicion appeared on his face.

The young monk frowned and looked a little helpless. He shrugged his shoulders and smiled bitterly, “It’s really a dragon bone. If you don’t believe me, Benefactor, I have nothing to say.”

Shen Shi thought for a moment. He took a step forward and lightly knocked a few places on the stone bone. The echo was low and dull. He felt that it was just an ordinary big stone, but there was nothing strange about it. After a moment of hesitation, he said to the monk, “You said it was a dragon bone. I really can’t tell. Do you have anything to prove it?” “If you can really prove that this is a dragon bone, then that would be easy to say.”

The young monk coughed and hesitated to say anything. In the end, he spread out his hands and smiled, but did not say a word.

Shen Shi rolled his eyes. When he was a child, he had seen many similar scenes in his shop on the first floor of the Heavens. Most of them were cheaters who brought some fake and inferior goods to obtain spirit crystals. If the people in the shop had a sharp eye and saw through the fake goods, they would leave on their own. If they misjudged them, they would be in a bad position to make a fortune. Of course, there were also people who came over with treasures, so in the final analysis, it depended on whether the shopkeeper’s eyes were sharp or not.

However, no matter how hard he looked at the stone bone in front of him, he couldn’t see anything unique about it, and it didn’t seem to have anything to do with the dragons at all. However, when he lowered his head and frowned, he discovered that Little Hei was still staring at the stone bone with bright eyes.

Shen Shi’s heart trembled slightly. Others didn’t know, but he knew that some of Xiao Hei’s body was somewhat unclear about the dragon race’s involvement. Including the two beads from the past and under Soul Suppressing Abyss, the Primordial Yin Dragon seemed to have a different view of Xiao Hei.

After pondering for a moment, he raised his head to look at the young monk and asked, “Senior Brother, may I ask this … um, Dragon Bone, what is your price?”

The monk raised his eyebrows and immediately revealed a smile. He looked very happy. He smiled and said, “Amitabha, this poor monk will always be successful. Benefactor, just call me by my name. This dragon bone has an extraordinary origin. There must be something strange about it. However, looking at Benefactor’s face, it seems that he is destined to be a little monk. Just ten thousand spirit crystals.”

“Hiss” Shen Shi gritted his teeth and glanced at the Yong Cheng monk. However, he smiled sweetly and looked over. He did not know when a string of rosary beads had appeared in his hand and was gently rotating over there.

“It’s too expensive. I can’t afford it, Master.” Shen Shi said straightforwardly. Then, he took out the skills he had witnessed since he was young and said, “Cheaper, okay?”

Monk Yong Cheng was stunned for a moment and said, “Benefactor, how much do you think is appropriate?”

Shen Shi thought for a moment, but didn’t immediately answer him. He only whispered, “Wait here for me first. I’ll be right back.”

Without waiting for Yong Cheng to react, Shen Shi bent down and picked up Little Hei, who still didn’t want to leave. He quickly left the crowd and strode to a secluded spot on the Immortal Welcoming Platform. He put down Little Hei and glared at him, “What the hell? You want that bone so much?”

Little Black hum hum hum hum hum hum hum hum hum hum hum hum hum hum hum hum hum hum hum hum hum hum hum hum hum hum hum hum hum hum hum hum hum hum hum hum hum hum hum hum hum hum hum hum hum hum hum hum hum hum.

Shen Shi snorted and squatted down to Little Black. “You heard it just now. That bone isn’t cheap.” Originally, if you really wanted me to buy it, it wouldn’t be impossible. Oh … what’s with that look in your eyes? We used to have quite a lot of money, okay? Forget it, let’s not talk about this. However, this is the time for the Four Main Assembly. For the sake of Wentian Secret Realm, you also know that I have spent all of my spirit crystals. “I really can’t afford it now. What should I do?”

Little Hei looked a little sad. His two short front legs stood up and hugged one of Shen Shi’s ankles. He let out a few humph humph humph humph humph humph humph humph humph humph humph humph humph humph humph.

Shen Shi pondered for a moment, then touched Little Hei’s head and said, “How about this, we don’t have any spirit crystals anymore. However, most of the spirit crystals are bartered at this trade fair. Why don’t you take out some good spirit herbs and let’s try to exchange them with him, okay?”

Little Hei was stunned for a moment. He looked a little hesitant. Shen Shi coughed and said seriously, “Also, let alone that I didn’t warn you, don’t take out those low-grade first-grade and second-grade spirit herbs. They’re worthless. Didn’t you hear that they wanted 10,000 spirit crystals? The best spirit herbs, the higher the quality, the better. Do you have any?”

Little Black’s eyes also started to roll. Seeing this, he was hesitant. Shen Shi did not urge it. He just squatted beside it and smiled as he said to Little Black,

“Dragon bone, that’s a dragon bone.”

Little Hei tilted his head, seeming to have made up his mind. Then, he let out a low cry and tilted his head. In front of Shen Shi, a green-stemmed, red-leaved spirit herb appeared.

Shen Shi glanced at it and said indifferently, “The Red Tongue Grass is only a third-grade spirit herb. I’m afraid it’s not enough to look at.”

Little Hei looked a little heartache, but he gritted his teeth and tilted his head. This time, there were three more spirit herbs on the ground, all of them third-grade. However, Shen Shi casually glanced at them and shook his head.

Little Hei stomped the pig’s feet and spun around twice. He snorted twice and then a golden fruit appeared on the ground. This time, Shen Shi raised his eyebrows slightly and looked at it twice. He said, “Eh, you actually have this’ Golden Citrus’? Good luck.” However, although this was a fourth-grade spirit fruit, he shrugged his shoulders and looked at Little Hei sympathetically. “It still doesn’t seem to be enough.”

Little Hei was furious. He jumped up from the spot and let out a groan. Shen Shi spread out his hand and smiled bitterly, “It’s useless for you to get angry at me. I’m not selling that dragon bone. I’m just telling you the truth.”

Little Hei let out a mournful cry and fell to the ground. He looked extremely depressed. However, Shen Shi had raised this pig for so long, and he saw that its eyes were still rolling around. He snorted in his heart. He thought to himself, “I can’t cure you this time, hehe.”

With this thought in his heart, he didn’t say anything else. He only sighed and said, “Forget it, why don’t we buy it? If it’s really a dragon bone, then that monk won’t sell it without spirit herbs above the fifth grade.”

Little Black was like thunder, and the entire pig was stunned.

“What a pity, that dragon bone.” Shen Shi stood up and stretched lazily, his face filled with regret.

Xiao Hei immediately became anxious and bit down on the hem of his trousers, hmph, hmph, hmph, hmph, hmph, hmph.

Shen Shi lowered his head to look at it and said strangely, “It’s useless for you to force me. Actually, it’s useless for me to take that dragon bone. To be honest, I can’t even tell what’s good about that bone. But you like that thing.”

Little Hei gritted his teeth and let out a low hum. Finally, he let out a miserable scream. He waved his head at Shen Shi, but a strange spirit herb suddenly appeared on the ground. Its stem and leaves were as green as jade, and a faint silver light attached to it. It looked like stars were rising and falling, and a strange fragrance came to his nose.

Shen Shi’s body trembled and he sucked in a breath of cold air. He was stunned and said, “Starlight Grass, good fellow, you actually have such a fifth-grade rare treasure …”

Little Black turned around and didn’t say anything. He coldly looked into the distance. He didn’t seem to have the heart to look at this Starlight Grass any longer, and it was as if it hurt deeply in his heart.

Shen Shi nodded. He bent down and picked up the Starlight Grass. At the same time, he kept the small pile of Tier 3 and Tier 4 spirit herbs on the ground without changing his expression. Then, he said seriously,

“Let’s go, let’s find that black-hearted monk!”

Little Hei roared in a low voice. He seemed to share a common enemy with Shen Shi and angrily walked towards the crowd again.
