Chapter 502 - The Resentful Infant in the Stone Coffin

  "It was really worthwhile to come to the Tianyuan Treasure Fair this time. I found two rare treasures at a low price on the first day."

  "A piece of evil blood and flesh of the disaster level, whether it is used to feed the flesh spirit god or to transform into ghost mud meat, it is quite good." "

  An unknown spiritual seed shaped like the five internal organs, only one Xuanyin Pill plus a thousand spirit stones were exchanged, it was a big profit."

  Although the species, grade, and cultivation method of the spiritual seed were all unknown, Lu Xuan's special ability allowed him to learn about the spiritual plant at any time.

  If he hadn't wanted to stroll around the lower floor of Duobao Building, he would have planted it as soon as possible and learned the specific information of the spiritual seed.

  Lu Xuan was in a good mood after picking up two bargains. He strolled leisurely between the stalls to see if there were any unknown spiritual seeds or various materials suitable for the growth of spiritual plants.

  After walking for a while, he was attracted by a stone coffin on a stall.

  The stone coffin was covered with mottled traces of time, and was gray-black in color. The four sides were engraved with patterns of evil spirits with green faces and fangs. Through the coffin lid, the spiritual consciousness could see a blue-black resentful baby sealed inside the coffin.

  The resentful baby's head and limbs were deeply nailed by a bronze nail engraved with dense and obscure runes, unable to move. The whole body was filled with yin energy, and the phantoms of infants kept floating out of its body and crawling along the inner wall of the coffin.

  Sensing Lu Xuan's infiltrating spiritual consciousness, the blue-black resentful baby suddenly opened its eyes, and a pair of empty pupils stared at the direction where Lu Xuan was.

  "Look at me again, I will eat you."

  Lu Xuan thought to himself and asked the stall owner:

  "Daoyou, what is the origin of this stone coffin? What is the origin of the resentful infant inside?"

  "It was obtained in a mysterious secret realm. The resentful aura of the resentful infant inside is extremely strong, and its mind is easily affected by it. The sealing magic weapon inside is slightly loose, which will cause many resentful souls of infants and children to breed."

  The stall owner is a female cultivator with high cheekbones. She looks sharp and speaks in a cold voice.

  "I am somewhat interested in this stone coffin. I wonder how many spiritual stones it will take?"

  Lu Xuan asked casually. The holy infant fruit in the underworld courtyard needs to be fed with the resentful souls of infants who died unjustly. The previous wooden infant has been almost drained by him, and the resentful infant in the stone coffin in front of him can just be used as a substitute.

  "Four thousand eight hundred spirit stones."

  "This is too expensive. I don't know how effective the most valuable bronze spikes in the sarcophagus are, and I don't know what the sarcophagus is made of."

  "The resentful infants inside may be of great use to the evil cultivators, but I have to spend extra energy to purify them. How about this, give me the four thousand spirit stones?"

  Lu Xuan followed the usual practice and chopped hard.

  The two bargained for several times before he figured out the bottom line of the female cultivator and finally reached an agreement on the price of four thousand two hundred low-grade spirit stones.

  "Daoyou, here is the number of spirit stones. Please take a look."

  Lu Xuan took out the spirit stones and handed them to the female cultivator.

  "Wait a minute!"

  Just as the two were about to make a deal, a sinister voice sounded.

  Lu Xuan looked in the direction of the voice and saw a pale, skinny old man with a sinister aura coming over.

  "Xuan Yin old ghost!"

  The female cultivator exclaimed softly, with some fear in her tone towards the skinny old man.

  "Fellow Daoist, this sarcophagus is meant for me. Why don't you give me a favor and let me have it?"

  The skinny old man narrowed his eyes and looked at Lu Xuan. The skin under his gaze felt a chill and he couldn't help but get goosebumps.

  "I'm sorry, I've already bought this sarcophagus. Fellow Daoist, you should look for other treasures."

  Lu Xuan said coldly.

  "Really? The sarcophagus is in this stall, which means it doesn't belong to you. It's completely fair competition."

  The skinny old man laughed sinisterly and said.

  "We have already agreed on the price. Do you want to steal it away?"   

  Lu Xuan's face gradually darkened.

  "Why, do you have any objections?"

  "The Jindan Zhenren in Duobao Tower will not tolerate your behavior of forced buying and selling."

  Lu Xuan took a deep look at the old man and imprinted his appearance in his mind.

  "Of course I will not violate the rules of Duobao Tower, but I am not sure about leaving this building."

  "It is still no problem to follow two cultivators whose cultivation is much lower than mine."

  The old man glanced at Lu Xuan and the female cultivator, and there was a bit of threat in his tone.

  A trace of helplessness flashed in the eyes of the female cultivator, and she glanced at Lu Xuan.

  "Daoyou, I'm really sorry. This old ghost is really too powerful. For the sake of his own safety, I decided to sell this sarcophagus to him."

  "As for Daoyou, how about I compensate you with another 200 spirit stones?"

  "This Xuanyin old ghost is from the Jiyin Sect. He is only a step away from forming a pill. He is vicious and cruel. He loves to refine the souls of cultivators into magic tools for his use. I don't know how many cultivators have died in his hands."

  Just as Lu Xuan wanted to continue fighting for the sarcophagus, a quick and slight voice came into his sea of ​​consciousness. It was the female cultivator who secretly transmitted the voice.

  "Then it can only be decided by Daoyou. As for the spirit stones, forget it."

  The duck that was about to be cooked flew away. Lu Xuan's heart rose with an unknown fire, and he transmitted the voice to the female cultivator.

  A sneer appeared on the face of the skinny old man. He took the sarcophagus and looked at the resentful baby inside. He loved it very much.

  "Thank you Daoyou for giving up the treasure. After the treasure meeting is over, if I meet Daoyou outside, I will definitely thank you."

  Before leaving, he came to Lu Xuan on purpose, and there was something else in his tone.

  "Okay, I welcome you very much."

  Lu Xuan replied coldly.

  A layer of hazy spiritual light appeared in his eyes, sweeping across the skinny old man's body.

  I don't know if the old man was too confident, he showed up in the building with his true face without any cover.

  "Little vine, remember this man's breath. After the Tianyuan Treasure Meeting is over, I want you to help me find him."

  Lu Xuan said to the demon ghost vine that had shrunk and was hiding in his sleeves.

  The demon ghost vine is extremely sensitive to all kinds of breath. When it goes out, it can go directly to find the skinny old man.

  In addition, there is a void nightmare eye that keeps wandering outside the Duobao Building, which can also detect and follow the old man.

  Lu Xuan has practiced for many years, and this is the first time that someone has forcibly intercepted the treasure he has set his eyes on. Although he has always been cautious, he can hardly swallow this breath. The

  more he thinks about it, the angrier he gets.

  Since this skinny old man likes to refine resentful souls, he must have a lot of corresponding magic tools on him. He can get them at that time, which can save a lot of spirit stones.

  As for the old man's perfect foundation building state, he didn't take it too seriously. With the initiative to attack and the many fifth-grade magic tools and treasures on him, Lu Xuan felt that he could win.

  "Since you want to meet me outside the building, I will meet your small request. The first and last time I see you."

  "I hope you can gain more during this time, so as not to disappoint me."

  He made a note of the skinny old man in his small notebook, continued to wander around, and the idea of ​​picking up bargains faded a little, and went straight back to his room.
