Chapter 804: Chapter 804: Supre Dragonblood Grass
The people coming and going in the marketplace had no common dress code, so Chen Guan wasn’t worried about being recognized.
The creator of this market probably never imagined that a free human would co here.
After entering the market, Chen Guan didn’t look around aimlessly but walked slowly past each stall. Those heavenly and earthly treasures were just casually placed on the ground, so having grown so long and enormous that they lay on the ground like boulders.
"Finally, it feels a bit like entering the Great Cave Heaven. This is the kind of place I imagined with heavenly treasures everywhere," Chen Guan thought, arriving at a stall selling Silver Star Blueback Vine.
Chen Guan glanced around; there were several stalls selling Silver Star Blueback Vine, but others had lesser quantities and poorer quality. The vines here had beco entirely blue, a state that could only be achieved after a million years of growth. For those around ten thousand years old, only a single blue line would appear on the back.
Beside the stall, there was a wooden board stating what the stall owner wanted in exchange.
Secret Spirit didn’t use currency; all trades were barter-based. The market’s designer didn’t seem to plan for a substitute currency, likely to prevent tracing trades through tokens back to the buyers and sellers.
This situation was highly advantageous for Chen Guan.
Not having to worry about being discovered by Secret Spirit, he could still exchange for the rare treasures he wanted in the market.
So treasures were not very useful to Secret Spirit, but their value among humans was extrely high.
For instance, those Silver Star Blueback Vines; the owner was only asking for Lingzhi over thirty thousand years old in exchange.
Chen Guan had a batch of Lingzhi left in his inventory, though they were high-quality Lingzhi kept by him, mostly around a hundred thousand years old, and not in large quantity.
After taking out the Lingzhi, Chen Guan quickly struck a deal with the stall owner, obtaining four bundles of Silver Star Blueback Vine in exchange.
These Silver Star Blueback Vines were only chopstick-thick, their entire body resembled blue jade, adorned with silver specks like stars.
The cross-sections were identical, as if all the vines had undergone jadeification, definitely top-quality rchandise.
"If I take these four bundles of Silver Star Blueback Vine to the Zhang Family, I could easily trade them for many Dragon Tiger Pills, right?" Chen Guan thought to himself, but he didn’t plan to exchange them for Dragon Tiger Pills.
Dragon Tiger Pills were of no use to him anymore; he intended to gather the ingredients for a Star Soul Pill and request an alchemist from the Zhang Family to craft it for him.
Having reached Chen Guan’s current status, he naturally only wanted to raise top-tier pets or functional pets with specific abilities, making Star Soul Pills indispensable.
So unique pets had potent abilities but average talents, which could be resolved using a Star Soul Pill.
Even so rare and exquisite pets, after being refined with a Star Soul Pill, could possess very strong abilities.
For instance, there’s a rare-quality electric snake pet whose talent is its electric power, a rather ordinary trait.
When attacked, its electric power talent would trigger, releasing a shock that could electrify soone.
Though the talent seed useless, after being refined with a Star Soul Pill, soone managed to evolve the snake’s talent into Flash Spirit Shock.
Even when shocked and electrocuted, its attack strength wasn’t high, and it was difficult to cause damage.
But the Flash Spirit Shock talent could ignore the defenses of many Secret Spirits and humans, giving a paralyzing effect that immobilized them for several seconds.
An originally useless talent suddenly turned into a super talent.
Of course, that was because of one person’s exceptional luck that they refined such a strong talent.
Later, others tried to imitate, wasting quite a few precious Star Soul Pills without achieving the Flash Spirit Shock result.
And generally, people wouldn’t feed such a precious elixir as the Star Soul Pill to low-quality pets like the electric snake.
Chen Guan continued trading silently in the market, exchanging for the rare treasures he could acquire.
Of course, he only went for items he knew would be profitable.
Chen Guan now regretted bringing too few heavenly and earthly treasures; many rare items he fancied were missed due to the lack of tradeable items.
"In the future, I could easily bring heavenly treasures from the human side here for exchange, buying low and selling high to profit from the margin. The different demands for Secret Spirit on both sides create a value imbalance..."
Chen Guan mused, "If these items all ca from the Hundred Herb Valley, the value of the Hundred Herb Valley might be far beyond my imagination."
Although Chen Guan’s current strength was decent, when facing a true Ninth Awakening Powerhouse, he might not gain the upper hand and could even suffer a loss.
Thus, Chen Guan adhered to the principle of avoiding conflict with others before achieving the Ninth Awakening, believing in silent developnt as the true path.
Chen Guan continued browsing, looking for anything else worth exchanging.
Suddenly, Chen Guan’s eyes widened at sothing he spotted at a stall.
"Dragon Blood Grass!" Chen Guan observed again and confird that it was indeed Dragon Blood Grass.
Previously, Jin Taohua had brought out a stalk of Dragon Blood Grass for auction, which was bid for by the Martial King and very gladly presented to Chen Guan.
Chen Guan knew very well the efficacy of this thing and had originally planned to use that stalk of Dragon Blood Grass to help Ghost Eye reach the Seventh Awakening.
Prior to Chen Guan preparing for the Seventh Awakening himself, he fed Ghost Eye the Dragon Blood Grass to induce its own Seventh Awakening so that Chen Guan could utilize it imdiately after his awakening.
But who would have thought that after Ghost Eye consud the Dragon Blood Grass, its body did change sowhat, but it hadn’t achieved the Seventh Awakening.
After much study, Chen Guan concluded that the efficacy of that single stalk of Dragon Blood Grass was insufficient to fully awaken the Dragon Emperor Bloodline in Ghost Eye.
The current Dragon Blood Grass, judging by its quality, was far superior to the one Chen Guan had previously obtained; it truly proved that one should not fear poor quality, only fear comparison.
Initially, Chen Guan considered the Dragon Blood Grass he obtained to already be a rare treasure.
However, when compared to this stalk of Dragon Blood Grass, his own seed like re roadside grass.
With barely any hesitation, Chen Guan decided to acquire this Dragon Blood Grass for Ghost Eye’s awakening.
Yet, as a singular rare treasure with significant effects, Dragon Blood Grass was also exceptionally valuable to Secret Spirit.
Chen Guan examined the stall owner’s desired exchange goods, many of them were high-value rare treasures here with steep demands.
Chen Guan could only provide a few of the required items, several others he did not have.
Fortunately, Chen Guan’s mory was quite sharp, and he imdiately turned and walked to other stalls, trading his own heavenly and earthly treasures repeatedly until he finally gathered the necessary materials to exchange for the Dragon Blood Grass.
