Black Iron Sheet
The last time Divine Dragon Soul Sealing Ornament vibrated, Yang Tian found the soul nourishment divine tree. He had high expectations this time despite the rather mild reaction. The reaction was only elicited when the ornament picked up on divine soul items.
Yang Tian contained his excitement and continued forward with the ornament navigating. He communicated with the ornament’s spirit. Something must’ve covered the item because he could only get a faint reading even with the ornament’s spirit. He calmed down and touched his nose, praying nobody else found it. It would be impossible for him to buy outright.
Yang Tian came across numerous precious items on the way that he couldn’t afford. The third floor presumably had even better goods. The place was presumably divided up by ranks or some system, a conclusion he came to when he realised the further in he went, the stronger the people he encountered were.
An elder looked sleepy at the stall in front. He ignored the people passing by. Yang Tian took a second look at him. The elder had ten herbs ten thousand years old! He had lots of pill formulas, silver sheets and other bizarre items from ancient times. The buyer had to exchange spiritual herbs for the items, not bloodstones.
The ornament pointed to a black iron sheet the size of a thumb. A row of golden characters indicated that one needed to exchange dew for some reason much to Yang Tian’s delight. The elder probably didn’t realise there was more hidden inside. He needed three drops. After contemplating, Yang Tian decided not to buy it straight away. Instead, he focused his attention on the ten herbs ten thousand years old. He fancied a green vine three metres tall. It contained vitality and glowed. It was ten thousand years old. It was one of the herbs required for a yin yang revitalisation pill – green vine! Yang Tian had a green vine, but it wasn’t old. It was his first time seeing a ten-thousand-year-old one. The older one would be much more effective during the refinement process.
Yang Tian performed a propitious salute. “Elder, I would like to exchange for a green vine.”
Lazily, the elder answered, “Okay, put it down and take the vine.”
Yang Tian nodded and put down a hot crimson herb – crimson flame spiritual herb. Everyone looked and nodded. Premium grade and in perfect shape, they noticed! Everybody needed it for pill flames, so it was worth a lot at the convention.
The reason people didn’t walk over and exchange something for it was due to the elder; he was that intimidating.
The elder opened his eyes. Yang Tian’s crimson flame spiritual herb was worth more than the vine and superior. The elder smiled and looked up. The elder was surprised; he saw through Yang Tian’s disguise. Yang Tian was aware. The elder maintained his manners. Yang Tian was far superior to his failure grandsons. Yang Tian felt relieved after the elder stopped peeking into him.
Yang Tian stored away the vine and eventually clenched his teeth, only to then smile. “Elder, I am interested in this, so I would like to exchange for it.”
“Oh…” The elder was surprised when he looked to the black iron sheet.
The elder never expected Yang Tian to desire an ancient object he couldn’t make sense of. He didn’t have the foggiest clue as to what it even was, but he was dead certain it was extraordinary, so he asked for an exorbitant three drops of dew.
The elder thought well of Yang Tian, so he warned, “I am asking for three drops of dew. Think twice.”
Yang Tian nodded and took out a white jade vial. “I have decided.”
The elder looked through the vial and nodded with contentment.
Everybody knew exactly what was in the jade vial just glancing at it. As such, they called Yang Tian brain dead for trading the three drops for a sheet of paper they had no idea what it even was. Yang Tian heard all the soft voices and thought, We’ll find out whether I profited or lost.
Because the elder was content, Yang Tian rubbed his hands and reached for the black sheet.
“Wait.”
Everyone turned to look at the girl with the imposing and besotting voice of a girl.
