The old man took the list, glanced at it, and then nodded: "I have some of the materials here; we can talk about it."
Yun Muhan and the old man began to bargain, and after some back and forth, they finally reached a deal that satisfied both of them.
After the transaction was completed, Yun Muhan's fingers moved nimbly and carefully as he stored the newly acquired materials into his storage space.
These materials are like treasures to him, each one potentially playing a crucial role in the future. His actions revealed his appreciation for these materials, as well as his satisfaction with the transaction.
He carefully inspected each item to make sure they were properly stored before gently closing the storage compartment lid.
When thanking the old man, Yun Muhan's tone was full of sincerity and gratitude. He bowed slightly and said in a gentle and respectful voice, "Thank you, sir. These materials are very important to me."
His eyes shone with respect for the old man, while also revealing his anticipation for possible future cooperation.
Just as Yun Muhan was about to leave the stall, secretly rejoicing at his good fortune, he suddenly felt a strange fluctuation coming from the other end of the square.
Although the fluctuation was faint, it carried a mysterious and powerful aura, causing his heart to beat faster.
His gaze was drawn to a mysterious figure in black robes standing in an inconspicuous corner, seemingly out of place with the surrounding hustle and bustle.
The figure in black robes appeared particularly lonely in the dim light. In front of him was an ancient wooden box, carved with intricate runes that seemed to suppress some powerful force, arousing curiosity and vigilance in those who saw it.
Yun Muhan's curiosity was piqued, and he decided to go and find out for himself. He walked through the bustling crowd, each step exuding composure and determination.
The crowd surged around him, but his gaze remained fixed on the man in the black robe and the ancient wooden box.
His arrival did not attract the attention of the man in black robes, who remained standing there quietly, as if waiting for a specific person.
The man in black robes raised his head, revealing a pair of deep-set eyes. His voice was low and mysterious: "Young man, are you interested in unknown powers?"
Yun Muhan's intuition told him that the black-robed man before him was no ordinary person. He nodded, a simple gesture that revealed his respect for the man and his anticipation of what was about to happen.
His eyes gleamed with wariness and curiosity. He knew that the man in the black robe and the items in the wooden box might bring him unexpected surprises or challenges.
The man in black robes smiled slightly, a smile that appeared somewhat mysterious in the dim light. His movements were slow and methodical, as if each action was imbued with a sense of ritual.
As the lid of the wooden box was gently lifted, a dazzling light burst forth from inside, illuminating the surrounding space and reflecting on the faces of Yun Muhan and the man in black robes.
Yun Muhan looked closely and his gaze was deeply drawn to the items in the wooden box.
Inside the wooden box lay a strange crystal, unlike any he had ever seen before. Liquid seemed to flow slowly within it, radiating a vibrant, rainbow-like light.
The surface of the crystal is smooth and transparent, and when light shines through it, you can see the flow of the liquid inside. They seem to follow some mysterious law, and each flow carries an indescribable power.
The light from the crystals danced inside the wooden box, illuminating the intricate runes and making the entire box appear even more mysterious and ancient.
Yun Muhan could sense that this crystal was not just a beautiful gemstone; the liquid flowing inside and the light it emitted suggested that it contained some kind of powerful energy or secret.
Dugu Jianling: This is... the Heart of the Stars!
"This is the 'Heart of the Stars,' which contains the power of the stars and is priceless to alchemists," the man in black explained.
Yun Muhan's heart stirred. He knew that the value of this crystal was immeasurable. If he could use it to refine pills, he would surely be able to create the legendary divine pills. But he also knew that such a treasure would definitely be very expensive.
“I want this ‘Heart of the Stars’,” Yun Muhan said firmly. “However, I need to know its price.”
The man in black robes held up one finger: "One thousand amethyst crystals, or treasures of equivalent value."
Yun Muhan frowned slightly. The price was indeed not low, but he also knew that such treasures were rare and hard to come by.
He took a deep breath and took out some precious materials and pills from the ring, each of which was a rare treasure.
"Do you think this, combined with the currency I have, is enough?" Yun Muhan asked.
The man in black carefully examined the items Yun Muhan had provided, a hint of surprise flashing in his eyes. He nodded: "Your items are indeed valuable. Although they are not enough to pay for everything, they are enough to show your sincerity. I can give you a discount, but you need to agree to one condition."
Yun Muhan looked at the man in black robes warily: "What are the conditions?"
The man in black robes smiled mysteriously: "In the future, if you are able to refine a divine pill, I want you to grant me a request."
Yun Muhan weighed the options in his mind. He knew that this condition might conceal unknown risks, but he also understood that this opportunity could not be missed. He nodded: "Deal."
After the transaction was completed, Yun Muhan carefully put away the 'Heart of the Stars', thanked the man in black, and left the stall.
Yun Muhan's figure gradually disappeared into the crowd, his goal becoming clearer and his steps more resolute. He not only wanted to refine the divine pill, but also to uncover the secrets behind the 'Heart of the Stars' and the true identity of the man in black robes.
Dugu Jianling: It's getting dark, let's find a hotel to sleep.
"Sleep, sleep, all you do is sleep. Prices in this God Kingdom are so high, and besides... we're out of money."
Dugu Jianling: What? You're out of coins? Are you planning to make me sleep on the street?
Yun Muhan sighed deeply. "Ah! If only a bag of money could fall from the sky."
Yun Muhan's words carried a hint of helplessness and humor. He looked up at the sky, seemingly hoping for a miracle to happen.
However, just as he finished speaking, a black cloth bag suddenly fell from the sky and landed right at his feet.
Dugu Jianling: "?"
"?"
Yun Muhan was taken aback. He quickly picked up the cloth bag, which felt heavy and seemed to be full of things.
He carefully untied the rope at the top of the bag, and when he looked inside, his eyes lit up—it was filled with gold coins and some precious gems!
Among the gems are not only four flaw stones, but also two endless crystals, and even the extremely rare Life Alloy.
"This...this is..." Yun Muhan was so surprised that he couldn't speak. He looked around, trying to find out who was so generous, but there were people coming and going around him and no suspicious signs.
Dugu Jianling's voice echoed in his mind, tinged with a hint of mockery: "It seems your prayers were heard by some passing deity. Now we can find a good place to rest."
