In any case, after sweeping through a small portion of the origin stones, Su Yu did not find anything good among them. Basically, they were all damaged items. Even a complete item was very rare.
There was a saying that you might make a small profit, but I would never make a loss. This saying should be carved on the origin stone. It was extremely fitting.
Su Yu did not continue walking forward. Instead, he turned around and walked towards the place where they were cutting the stone.
At the place where the origin stones were cut, a group of high-ranking officials, nobles, and cultivators were all red in the face. They looked extremely excited, like gamblers who had staked all their fortunes.
This was because this was really a little exciting. If one could obtain a treasure from it, he would not have to worry about money for the rest of his life!
However, the Myriad Commerce Association still had a conscience. They knew that ordinary people could not afford this thing and only scammed the rich and powerful.
In any case, every time the popularity of origin stones decreased, the Myriad Commerce Association would secretly send expert Origin Artists to choose some origin stones that seemed to have a chance of containing small treasures. They would hand them over to professionals to cut the stones on the spot to stimulate the enthusiasm of the gamblers.
Su Yu stood at the side and looked curiously at the origin stone that was being cut open.
[Origin Stone]
Information: It contains a bottle of Silver Rank fearsome beast’s blood essence. Its value is average.
The origin stones were not cut by machines. Instead, they were manually cut by professionals who wielded a saber that was specially used to cut stones.
The professional was cutting the origin stone. The value of the item contained inside was higher than the price of this origin stone, so it could be considered a small profit.
Accompanied by shouts, the origin stone gradually shattered in the hands of the stone cutter. Finally, the blood essence of the ferocious beast inside was revealed.
This fearsome beast’s blood essence had the solid shape of a crystal. Perhaps because of the uniqueness of the origin stone, the power contained in it did not decrease.
After the stone-cutter finished cutting the stone, the professional appraiser at the side also went forward to appraise the item in the origin stone.
“Congratulations, Sir Zhao. This should be the blood essence of a General Level Fearsome Beast. You’ve earned a small sum this time.”
After the appraiser finished appraising the items, he immediately shouted at the young man in luxurious clothes who was waiting anxiously at the side.
“Hahaha, here’s your reward.” The young man called Sir Zhao threw some reward money at the stone-cutter.
“Sir Zhao, do you still want to continue?” At this moment, someone beside him chimed in.
“Continue, of course I’ll continue. I’m so lucky today. I have to win back my previous loss in one go.”
Sir Zhao, who was already a little excited, responded excitedly to the question.
At this point, Su Yu did not continue watching.
There was no need to think about what would happen next. The young man surnamed Zhao would surely lose so badly that he wouldn’t even have his pants left. There was nothing more to see.
With this extra time, Su Yu decided to pick some origin stones and bring them back.
While Su Yu was choosing stones in the origin stone area, Ji Ruoyan was listening to the report of the middle-aged Martial Grandmaster on the fifth floor of the Myriad Commerce Association.
“Miss, Sir Su didn’t leave the commerce association directly. He’s currently choosing origin stones in the origin stone region on the third floor.”
“Could it be that that fellow is proficient in handling origin stones?” Upon hearing the middle-aged man’s words, Ji Ruoyan could not help but feel curious.
“What do you think of that guy’s strength?”
Ji Ruoyan looked at the middle-aged Martial Ancestor and asked something unrelated.
“Miss, in my opinion, the other party should have the strength of a General. However, as for his exact strength, he must have some items on him that hide his aura, so I can’t pry into it.”
“Such a young General, his talent is comparable to mine.”
Upon hearing this, Ji Ruoyan could not help but mutter to herself.
The middle-aged Martial Grandmaster behind him could not help but twitch when he heard the young lady’s musings.
“Alright, let’s see what he bought from the commerce association later. Bring me the list.”
After some thought, Ji Ruoyan instructed softly.
“Yes, my lady.”
While Ji Ruoyan was still thinking about Su Yu’s background, Su Yu had set his eyes on a few origin stones.
[Origin Stone]
Information: It contains the comprehension of a low-rank King’s Sword Technique Rules. It’s relatively high in value.
[Origin Stone]
Information: It contains a deceased Buddhist Master’s Relic. It’s relatively high in value.
[Origin Stone]
Information: It contains a low-rank King Weapon with damaged spirituality. It’s relatively high in value.
Su Yu chose a total of eight origin stones. The value of the items contained in them could be considered extremely rare and valuable compared to the price of origin stones.
Su Yu was lucky that he had such an abnormal skill. Otherwise, it would be a fool’s dream to pick out these valuable origin stones from the small mountain of origin stones.
“Sir, are you done choosing? Would you like to have the stones cut?” Seeing that Su Yu was no longer choosing, Jia Qing, who was following beside him, immediately asked.
“No need. Pack them all up for me. I’m buying some other things. Then, I’ll pay the bill and take them away. Let’s go to the cultivation techniques and martial arts section.”
Upon hearing Jia Qing’s question, Su Yu continued.
“This way, please.” Upon hearing his response, Jia Qing did not say anything else and directly led Su Yu in another direction.
Su Yu followed Jia Qing to the Myriad Commerce Association’s area where cultivation techniques and martial techniques were sold.
[Beginner Martial Artists’ Basic Body Refining Technique]
Description: A basic cultivation technique used to temper the body for beginners of martial arts. It includes the method to temper the skin and forge the flesh.
[Warriors’ Basic Body Refining Technique]
Description: It is used to advance a martial artist to a martial artist’s body tempering technique. It includes Bone Forging, Marrow Cleansing, Viscera Training, and Blood Changing Techniques.
[Ordinary Meridian Opening Warrior Technique]
Description: It can be used to open the 12 meridian realms to become a Meridian Opening Warrior.
After scanning through the cultivation technique region, Su Yu realized that the highest-level cultivation technique was an Ordinary Martial Grandmaster technique with 36 apertures. Moreover, it was not an inheritance book, but an ordinary book.
Seeing this, Su Yu took all the ordinary cultivation techniques from Martial Artists to Martial Ancestors. Jia Qing was dumbfounded.
However, Jia Qing did not dare to ask any questions. She could only silently bury her bewilderment in her heart.
After choosing the cultivation technique, Su Yu did not continue to stay in the cultivation technique section. Instead, he turned the corner and went to the medicinal ingredients area to look at the large pile of advanced medicinal ingredients.
In any case, Su Yu did not keep a single cent of the money he earned from selling the pills. He spent it all at the Myriad Commerce Association.
It was simply like spending his money all in one place. He didn’t even think about bringing a single cent home.
As soon as Su Yu paid the bill and left the Myriad Commerce Association, Ji Ruoyan, who was in the courtyard on the fifth floor, immediately received Su Yu’s shopping list.
Ji Ruoyan was very confused when she looked at the numerous items on the shopping list..
