Chapter 68 Harvest! Cutting Through the Sky and Shaking Light Stone Workshop
Chapter 68 Harvest! Cutting Through the Sky and Shaking Light Stone Workshop
The bet is over.
Li Xian did not stop.
He rose from beside the demonic fetus.
He walked towards the stone garden and stone frame area.
"Do we need to cut it again?"
"You won the bet, why bother cutting anything?"
Yao Yuekong followed behind, lowering his voice: "Brother, you've got the bet, know when to quit while you're ahead..."
Li Xian stopped in front of a piece of grayish-brown stone.
Big fist.
Sharp angles.
It looks like a broken brick picked up from the roadside.
Priced at 10,000 jin, this is the cheapest scrap material in Tianzihao Stone Garden.
He picked it up.
I weighed it in my hand.
The knife fell.
The stone skin cracked.
A pale yellow light appeared.
More than ten ancient spirit insects, each the size of a grain of rice, were curled up inside. Their bodies were filled with primordial essence, and golden threads could be seen moving around between their breaths.
Ancient insect origin.
"Another ancient insect source!"
The old cultivator, whose lifespan was nearing its end, had just been pulled away when he heard the sound and turned back, his eyes reddening again.
Li Xian didn't give them a chance to bid.
Income is a bitter sea.
He turned around and walked toward the next stone.
Half a person's height, with its surface covered in ice cracks, priced at 22,000 jin.
The knife penetrates the stone.
A burst of cold air erupted.
It precipitated an ice-blue source crystal the size of a baby's fist.
The frost flowers continuously grow and melt away, and the source energy remains pure.
"The Source of Ice and Snow Aliens!"
"Extremely high quality—the Ice Palace would give away at least 50,000 jin of this level of ice source!"
Li Xian accepted it and left.
The third piece.
Small pieces of stone remaining near the blood sacrifice altar.
Yaoguang Stone Workshop once cut a scrap of one of the six pieces from the Blood Sacrifice Altar, which was swept into a corner by the workshop's staff.
No price listed.
Nobody thought they could find anything in the gravel.
Li Xian bent down and picked it up.
Run your finger along the broken surface.
A crimson light surged forth.
The rubble peeled off.
A cluster of crimson source crystals, the size of a pigeon's egg, was revealed.
The scorching source energy forced the surrounding cultivators to take a half step back, and some even had their sleeves scorched.
Fiery Red Source.
Extremely good condition.
The source energy is domineering and scorching.
It is a top-grade treasure for tempering and refining the body.
The shop assistant at Yaoguang Stone Workshop opened his mouth, his face grim: "...cut out of the rubble?"
Li Xian turned around.
I stepped out of the Tianzihao Stone Garden.
We went to the Di-Jia district, which is right next to the Tian-Jia district.
Yao Yuekong, Xia Yiming, and others followed closely behind.
An Miaoyi didn't follow. She stood still, her gaze following the figure through the gaps in the bamboo forest under the gauze curtain until it disappeared from sight.
The person in charge of District A hadn't reacted yet.
Then they saw Li Xian walking among the stone shelves, pointing with his finger.
"This piece, this piece, this piece."
The three stones are priced at 2,000, 9,000, and 8,800 jin respectively.
"cut."
The manager glanced at the swarming crowd.
He wiped his sweat and said in a trembling voice:
"Esteemed guest...the total price is 19,800. Please proceed as follows—"
Yao Yuekong casually tossed out the Source Token.
"Deducting from the money won in the bet, the Ouyang family's debt will be enough to keep him busy until tomorrow."
The first piece is a dark brown flat stone.
The knife is used to open it.
A brilliant purple light shone forth.
The source crystal is as clear as crystal.
It contains shimmering starlight, a purple aura, and a dazzling array of colors.
Amethyst Source.
The demonic fetus from which the Qilin Immortal Elixir seed was just cut.
The associated stones, which belong to the same area, have simply been overlooked.
"Amethyst Source! Even rarer than Ice and Snow Source—"
The second piece.
Grayish-white oval stone.
As the sword fell, a burst of rosy light shot into the sky.
A palm-sized, luminous divine source is embedded in the center of the stone.
It is crystal clear, without any impurities, and contains ancient essence flowing within, with thousands of auspicious rays.
The luminous white divine source.
The quality was so high that some of the older monks present had tears in their eyes.
"This kind of divine source... I've lived for eight hundred years, and I've only seen about ten of them in total."
The third piece was an unremarkable water-worn stone.
Li Xian made this cut extremely slowly.
The stone skin peeled off layer by layer.
A strange fragrance seeped out from the crack—
It's not strong, but it's refreshing and soothing.
Inside the stone core, the Blue Crystal Divine Source completely sealed a spiritual herb.
The herb grows to a foot tall, with stems like jade and leaves like emeralds. At its tip blooms eight small flowers of different colors, the stamens of which emit a spiritual light that flickers, and one can smell its fragrance even through the divine source.
Deathly silence.
The old beggar Taoist priest appeared out of nowhere.
His cloudy old eyes stared at the medicinal herb, his Adam's apple bobbing up and down several times.
"A near-medicine king of eighty or ninety thousand years." His voice was hoarse. "Extending lifespan by four hundred years, bringing the dead back to life, healing flesh and bones, and repairing Dao injuries—this item was a rare treasure that only ancient royalty were worthy of enjoying in the Primordial Era."
The stone garden was filled with a deafening explosion.
"A Medicine King even more precious than the Divine Source Insect King!"
"Extend lifespan by four hundred years—four hundred years!!"
Li Xian sealed the Medicine King and the Divine Source into the Sea of Bitterness, then looked up at the old beggar Taoist.
The old Taoist priest was also looking at him.
They understood each other perfectly.
"Let's talk another day..."
Li Xian continued walking.
The next half hour.
He is like a precision machine.
Passing through Zone A, Zone B, and Zone Z...
Keep moving forward.
The knife kept falling.
Each stone should be left for no more than three breaths.
Either pick it up and cut it open, or just let it pass by and say goodbye.
Between choosing and not choosing.
Without hesitation, without wavering.
The manager of Yaoguang Stone Workshop and his staff chased after them, their hands trembling as they flipped through the account books.
Amber Gold Divine Source.
Golden and warm, imbued with divine qualities, of extremely high quality.
Two more pieces of the pure white divine source emerged.
Ancient insect source, clump-like, three more clumps were cut out.
The number of ancient spirit insects ranges from a dozen to thirty, and they are all core materials for refining life-extending elixirs.
Blood Lotus.
Three-petaled blood-red flower, lotus heart sprouting golden seeds, a precious medicine for body-refining cultivators.
Ambergris.
White saliva hangs on the emerald green leaves, and a faint dragon aura lingers.
Blood and Tears Jade Bamboo.
Cut out from the waste area of Yaoguang Stone Workshop.
White as jade, with leaves dripping with blood-red tears, extremely rare, a king-level treasure.
Li Xian cut out one piece each time.
A gasp of surprise erupted from the crowd.
Later, the exclamation turned into numbness, and the numbness turned into fear.
"How much did he actually see?"
"The Eyes of the Source Heaven... Are these the eyes of the Source Celestial Master?"
"That's not right." A veteran of Source Arts shook his head, his face ashen. "Even a successor of the Source Master couldn't do this. He's not gambling on stones—he's opening a warehouse to retrieve goods."
Li Xian has a lot of capital.
There was plenty of stock, and a significant amount of cash was also sold off, so overall it was profitable.
He doesn't need much ordinary resources; just enough to buy stone cutting.
Zhou Ping's face turned pale.
Nearly half of the expensive stone was cut away.
Two-tenths of the high-quality stones from Zones A and B of the Earth were picked up.
Yaoguang Stone Workshop's revenue forecast for the next three years is collapsing with every cut Li Xian makes.
But he didn't dare to stop him.
The three holy lords are still alive.
The old beggar Taoist priest is still there.
Who dares to stop them?
The last batch of stone.
In a corner of the Xuan section, Li Xian simultaneously selected three extremely inconspicuous thin stone slabs.
The stone slabs were covered in gray dust, like paving materials brought from ruins.
The price is low, starting at three yuan, for less than five thousand catties of raw material.
The knife fell.
The first stone slab cracked.
The inner layer is sealed with gold and jade foil, which is sealed with the source energy and will never decay.
The jade foil was densely inscribed with an ancient formula, the main ingredients of which were ambergris, unicorn horn, and dragon-derived crystal.
The Formula for Transforming Dragon Pills.
The second piece is a bronze plate engraved with the Nirvana Elixir formula.
The main ingredients require the petals of the Medicine King and the blood of the Primordial Phoenix.
The third piece.
Animal hide scroll.
It records several formulas such as Yuanchong Dan and Yuanchong Shen Dan, with the core ingredient being ancient Yuanchong.
Three prescriptions were quietly laid out in Li Xian's hands.
Inside and outside the Stone Garden.
There wasn't even a sound of breathing.
"Dragon Transformation Pill... helps those in the Four Extremes Realm break through to Dragon Transformation." Yao Yuekong's voice was dry. "Nirvana Pill... revives those severely injured and allows those who have severed their path to rebuild their cultivation. Source Worm Pill... increases lifespan and prolongs life."
He took a deep breath.
"These three squares are all useful; any one of them is enough to exchange for an entire source mine."
The account book in Zhou Ping's hand fell to the ground.
He didn't pick it up.
Because he suddenly realized something—
These three stone slabs were examined by the stone master of Yaoguang Stone Workshop no less than ten times, and the conclusion each time was "worthless stones".
He sold the ancient elixir formula as waste rock for 5,000 jin of raw material.
If the Yao Guang Holy Land finds out about this, he will most likely lose his head.
Li Xian put away the pill formula and turned around.
In the last half hour, 127 cuts were made.
He stripped the entire Yaoguang Stone Archway bare.
Finally, Li Xian left.
Zhou Ping collapsed to the ground.
He thought he shouldn't be tempted by the Holy Maiden and the Yuanwang family to scheme against Li Xian.
but……
He's finished!
Outside the Stone Garden.
The old beggar Taoist stopped Li Xian.
"Kid."
"senior."
"What do you plan to do with this 80,000-90,000-year-old medicinal king?"
Li Xian looked at him.
"Senior wishes to refine a Saint-level elixir. What materials do you require?"
The old Taoist priest was taken aback for a moment.
He then grinned, revealing a mouthful of yellow teeth:
"You lad, your words and actions are more pleasant than any young person I've ever met."
"Give me the list," Li Xian said. "I'll keep an eye out for you, senior."
The old Taoist's smile deepened.
He pulled out a tattered bamboo strip from his sleeve and threw it over.
Li Xian caught it and glanced at it.
The bamboo strip is crookedly engraved with the names of seventeen medicinal herbs, three of which are circled in red—representing the most difficult to find.
He put away the bamboo strips and walked away.
Behind him, Yao Yuekong quickly caught up.
"Brother! Those ancient insect sources, alien sources, and divine sources—if the Heavenly Demon Treasure Palace were to auction them off—"
"A five-cent commission for our esteemed customer."
"I'll give you three points! No, two and a half!"
"Let's talk another day. Now let's go to Yaochi Stone Archway."
Yao Yue Kong paused in her steps:
"...Aren't you done cutting?"
Immediately.
He came to his senses.
Li Xian is on her way to a gathering at Yaochi.
See that outrageously wealthy woman from Yaochi.
At the entrance of the stone archway, the Imperial Uncle of Great Xia withdrew his gaze, his tone indifferent.
"Send a message to my elder brother, telling him that an interesting young man has appeared in the Eastern Wilderness, and that he should consider him as a potential son-in-law."
The Imperial Uncle paused, seemingly lost in thought.
"The lineage of Master Yuan is probably more than just those we've seen."
