Chapter 764: Water Spirit Bead
After a few days of traveling, Ishikawa spotted a small island, and to be on the safe side, Ishikawa stayed around for a while until he saw several foundational monks entering and exiting.
This island is not very large, and it is only more than 100 miles away. There are not many monks on the island, and most of the monks that Ishikawa can see are monks from the foundation building period.
This made Ishikawa's mood slightly relaxed, as Ishikawa found that the human monks here were no different from himself. Moreover, the cultivation is relatively low, so it will not have any impact on Ishikawa.
Therefore, Ishikawa released his divine sense and covered the entire island, and soon discovered that there were about ten Jindan monks on this island, and these Jindan monks occupied the best spiritual power on this island.
Of course, these places are not attractive to Ishikawa, and Ishikawa just needs to find a safe place to be satisfied.
Except for these ten Jindan stage monks, there was no Yuan Infant stage monk.
Ishikawa can also understand this, if there is a monk in this kind of place, it will surprise Ishikawa.
After a moment of silence, Ishikawa hid his cultivation and entered the island. Come to the place with the most monks during the foundation building period, and walk around at will.
Most of these foundation building period monks were trading a strange water bead, and the bargaining chips they traded were also spirit stones.
Ishikawa took a little insight and found that this kind of water droplet the size of a grain of rice contained a very rich amount of water spiritual power, and if it was cultivated by a monk of the water spirit root, it would definitely be an excellent thing.
The price is not too high, and a spirit stone can buy a water bead.
However, today's market does not seem to be good, there are too few monks who buy water beads, only two or three people, and the number of monks who sell water beads reaches thirty or forty, and the supply obviously exceeds demand, so the monks who buy water beads can lower the price, and the noise can be heard for several miles.
Ishikawa also bought a dozen or so water droplets out of curiosity. Play around with it in your hand and see if there are any reliable people who can ask about your surroundings.
As for those Jindan stage monks, Ishikawa would not easily alarm them.
Although Ishikawa could kill those Jindan monks with a wave of his hand, Ishikawa's caution as an outsider made Ishikawa not want to do so.
If these Jindan monks still have predecessors. They can report Ishikawa's appearance. If they were to go missing, it would also have a negative impact on Ishikawa.
Because Ishikawa wanted to retreat here for a long time, any unstable factors would have caused Ishikawa's retreat to be suspended. This is something Ishikawa doesn't want to see.
As for the foundation monks. It can be described as a small talk, and it will not have much influence. Even if a few people go missing, it won't cause much of a stir.
Of course, Ishikawa doesn't have the idea of killing people and searching for souls, unless someone doesn't send them to the door.
"Second-Order Water Spirit Bead!" Someone suddenly screamed.
This voice came out. All the monks who were trading or bargaining gathered around, and a young monk was holding a crystal clear drop of water in his hand, and his face was full of joy.
Obviously, this second-order water spirit bead is several times more powerful than the water spirit of the first-order water spirit bead, and it must be worth a lot of money.
"I want fifty spirit stones!" one immediately shouted.
"Fifty spirit stones? You are embarrassed to give out? I will give you a hundred spirit stones, this is the recognized price of the Water Spirit Star. A short, thin middle-aged man said with a sneer, he had already taken out the spirit stone from the storage bag and prepared to hand it over to the young monk.
The price is also stable.
However, the young monk didn't look at it, and said, "Two hundred spirit stones." Take it if you want it, and pull it down if you don't want it. ”
"That's a bit too high. "The faces of the several monks who bought the water beads changed slightly, the second-order water beads are indeed relatively rare, but the generally accepted price in the market is only a hundred spirit stones, if it is higher. These people don't have any profit to speak of.
"What's so high, I used hundreds of water spirit beads to condense it, and two hundred spirit stones were sold, and I still lost a lot!" the young monk said with some dissatisfaction.
"Daoist friends smelt this water spirit bead. Of course, you have to take a certain amount of risk, and the probability of failure is too high because of the lack of skill. No one else's fault. The short and thin middle-aged man said with a sneer, his eyes flashing, and he winked at the monks who had purchased the water spirit beads.
The men immediately understood.
Most of these monks who made a living by buying water spirit beads were familiar with each other, but generally speaking, they were all opponents and often suppressed each other.
However, at this time, a united front was formed.
"Eighty spirit stones, this is the highest price I have ever offered, and it won't be higher. The short, thin middle-aged man had a sarcastic look on his face.
"Eighty, joke!" The young monk laughed a few times: "I know that you all have a certain task to collect the water spirit beads, if you fail to complete the task, I am afraid that you will suffer a lot of punishments, and this second-order water spirit bead can replace a lot of tasks, and it is not much to ask you for two hundred spirit stones, if you don't want it, naturally someone will ask for it." And I'm too lazy to sell it to you, one hundred and eighty spirit stones, one hand to pay and one hand to deliver. ”
There are already a lot of monks watching around, the second-order water spirit bead is indeed a rare thing, generally speaking, the second-order water spirit bead is found by accident, and few people are willing to use the first-order water spirit bead to synthesize the second-order water spirit bead, because the risk is too great.
Theoretically, five first-order water spirit beads can be combined into a second-order water spirit bead. However, the chance of synthesis is too small, and the chance of refining the talisman seal is much smaller than refining the pill.
Therefore, on this Water Spirit Star, the monks who refine the Water Spirit Bead are extremely rare, and it is rumored that only a few people are willing to do so. Moreover, the more high-level the water spirit bead, the greater the chance of refining failure.
High risk means high reward, the power of the high-grade water spirit bead is extremely powerful, it is rumored that there is an eighth-order water spirit bead in the hands of the great spirit master, and it is with this water spirit bead that it is above the other two spirit masters.
In fact, the second-order Water Spirit Beads are not too rare, there will always be a few of them every month, and they are all competing for the acquisition of the Water Spirit Bead Monk Sect.
The reason why everyone was curious and interested was because they heard that this second-order water spirit bead was actually refined by this ordinary foundation building stage cultivator, and this person actually opened his mouth widely, and opened a high price of two hundred spirit stones in one bite.
In fact, two hundred spirit stones is not much, as long as ordinary foundation building period monks work hard, there will always be thousands of spirit stones in their hands every month.
And for those monks who buy spirit stones, they can also afford such a high price, although they will lose a lot of spirit stones, but at least they can complete the task without punishment.
But once this precedent was set, all the second-order Water Spirit Beads would rise, and they would not have a good time in the future, so these monks who acquired the Water Spirit Beads quickly formed a temporary alliance.
After a while, the young monk lowered the price to one hundred and fifty spirit stones, but everyone was indifferent. This made the young monk a little annoyed.
"One hundred and twenty spirit stones, it can't be lowered!" said the young monk with a gloomy face.
However, the few monks who bought the Water Spirit Bead still did not have any intention of bidding, and they were not going to give up long-term interests for the sake of short-term profits.
The onlookers also understood, and they all slowly dispersed, most of these monks in the foundation building period were active on several surrounding islands, and there were only a few monks who bought spirit stones on these islands, if one hundred and twenty spirit stones were recovered, not only would there be no profit at all, but they would also offend these monks who bought water spirit beads, which was definitely an extremely uneconomical thing.
The young monk's face flushed, and his face became extremely ugly.
"One hundred spirit stones, one hundred spirit stones, I will sell them!" The young monk seemed to have made a great decision, this was too far from his own asking price, and he didn't expect that these monks who bought spirit stones would be so unified.
The short and thin middle-aged man sneered and said, "I just said that eighty spirit stones, there won't be one more. It doesn't matter who you're selling to, it's at that price. ”
The rest of the people also looked at the young monk with a smile, and they all acquiesced.
This kind of killing chickens and monkeys is something they like to see, and as long as this matter spreads, for a long time, no monk will dare to ask for a price.
The young monk's face turned red, and he was extremely annoyed by this depressive behavior. But he had nothing to do, since everything had been said about this, no one would definitely buy this second-order water spirit bead again.
But it was true that he didn't have a single spirit stone on his body, otherwise, he wouldn't have sold this second-order water spirit bead.
"I want a hundred spirit stones!" A monk walked over slowly, and grabbed the water spirit bead in his hand.
The young monk had an extra pile of spirit stones in his hand.
The young monk was stunned for a moment, and then arched his hand and said, "Thank you, fellow Daoist." ”
The monk who bought this second-order water spirit bead was Ishikawa, and Ishikawa had just listened to it for a long time, although this water spirit bead was not very attractive to Ishikawa, and it was only a hundred spirit stones. But when the young monk mentioned that he could use low-grade water spirit beads to refine high-grade water spirit beads, it made Ishikawa extremely interested.
Ishikawa looked at this second-order water spirit bead curiously, this second-order water spirit bead was much better than Ishikawa had thought before, and the water spirit content in it was much richer than the first-order water spirit bead.
What's more, the second-order Water Spirit Bead is easier to utilize than the first-order Water Spirit Bead.
The young monk bowed his hand and left dejectedly, although he sold a hundred spirit stones, but he lost a lot. But it's much better than selling eighty spirit stones.
The faces of the monks who bought the spirit stone changed slightly, and just when they were about to sit back and enjoy it, someone actually snatched this benefit, which couldn't help but make these monks a little annoyed, and they also looked at Ishikawa angrily.
As if he hadn't seen it, Ishikawa casually put this second-order water spirit bead into the immortal mansion and handed it to Ahuizotl to study carefully.
After doing this, Ishikawa's generous edgeworth fled beyond the island.
After Ishikawa left, the monks who had purchased the water spirit beads looked at each other a few times and followed closely.
"This guy is too careless, he just grabbed the second-order water spirit bead, and he left so swaggeringly, isn't this asking for trouble?"
"Like, those guys aren't easy to mess with. ”
