The space inside the Heavenly King Hall is very large, inlaid with various precious gems, with spiritual crystals as the stone platform, and spiritual stones nourished by spiritual springs. It is magnificent and luxurious.
There are not many ancient stones in the Hall of Heavenly Kings, only more than one thousand pieces, but each ancient stone contains a mysterious Taoist charm, and each has a different shape, emitting strange fluctuations.
The mist is peaceful, the air is filled with auspiciousness, and many mysterious principles are intertwined, making people feel as if they have arrived in the ancient realm of gods, mysterious and unpredictable.
However, the price of the ancient stones here is also very expensive. Some ancient stones are even sold by pound. One pound of ancient stones costs thousands or even tens of thousands of Pure Yang Pills.
The most amazing thing is the ancient stone in the center of the Temple of Heavenly Kings. It looks like a peerless goddess, filled with colorful divine light. Every inch of the ancient stone is covered with mysterious runes. One can tell at a glance that this ancient stone is extraordinary.
Most of the ancient stones in the Temple of Heavenly Kings come from the depths of primitive ancient mines or from some forbidden areas. Legend has it that they seal the divine objects from ancient times and are extremely precious.
Every ancient stone here is priced at a sky-high price, and ordinary people simply cannot afford it. Even those old monsters are secretly amazed.
"This ancient stone actually contains 10,000 Pure Yang Pills per pound? This must be at least 50 pounds, right? Is your Nan Tian Zhai a black shop? You are so deceiving!"
The old goat also widened his eyes, looking at an ancient stone like white jade in front of him. It was only the size of a fist, but weighed more than fifty kilograms, and flowed with a mysterious Taoist rhyme.
"The ancient stones in my Nan Tian Zhai are genuine and of good value. If you can't afford them, don't come. Do you think it's expensive? Go and take a look at the Goddess Stone, the treasure of my Tianwang Palace, which is worth 30 million Pure Yang Pills!"
Chen Yang sneered, as if he had finally seized the opportunity to laugh at Ling Xiao and the others.
“Thirty million Pure Yang Pills? Hehe, you Nan Tian Zhai are really shady. If you really cut out the Ancient Goddess, and she knows that you sold her out, I’m afraid that even Nan Tian Zhai will be taken over by you!”
The old goat sneered.
Ling Xiao took a rough look and found that the ancient stones in Nan Tian Zhai were worth at least 100,000 Pure Yang Pills. With the Pure Yang Pills Ling Xiao had, he could only buy three or five at most.
"Friend Ling, the ancient stones in this Heavenly King Palace are extremely precious. If you can carve out a treasure that can increase longevity, we will definitely buy it at a high price!"
A group of old monsters looked at Ling Xiao with anticipation.
The business of gambling on stones is too complicated. Even if these old monsters are about to die, they dare not come and gamble their luck, because they do not understand the art of gambling on stones and there is a great possibility that they will lose all their money.
But the young man Ling Xiao is different. He has tried so many times and he has cut out treasures every time. This shows that it is not luck at all. This young man is also proficient in gambling on stones.
These old monsters seemed to see hope.
"I'll try my best!"
Ling Xiao smiled faintly, walked around the Heavenly King Palace, and finally chose an ancient stone.
The ancient stone was reddish-brown in color, as if blood was flowing in it, making it look like a scorpion. The Taoist aura it exuded was also the weakest, so the price was also the lowest, only 100,000 Pure Yang Pills.
"I thought you could pick out some precious ancient stone, but I didn't expect you to pick out the cheapest scorpion stone!"
Chen Yang sneered.
"Don't you believe there are treasures in here? How about we make a bet?" Ling Xiao glanced at Chen Yang and sneered.
Chen Yang's face froze instantly.
Although he wanted to kill Ling Xiao, he was also very afraid of him. This kid seemed to have a pair of X-ray eyes and could see the treasures in the ancient stones.
Naturally, he didn't dare to gamble with Ling Xiao on stones. He snorted coldly, turned his head away, and pretended not to hear what Ling Xiao said.
"Friend Ling, we have seen this scorpion stone before. This kind of ancient stone is either waste stone or can be turned into a treasure. The risk is very high. Will you consider it again?"
The great elder of the Treasure Pavilion smiled slightly.
“I want to give it a try!”
Ling Xiao smiled and said that the reason why he chose this scorpion stone was because although the fluctuation of the Wordless Heavenly Book was not the strongest, it was very similar to the Soul-Breaking Stone that produced the Shouming Cicada. Ling Xiao speculated that there might be a treasure that could increase longevity hidden in it.
The master of the Heavenly King Hall was an old man with white hair and beard. He sat cross-legged in the hall with his eyes closed. Even when many people arrived, he did not react at all.
Ling Xiao noticed that Chen Yang seemed to be very wary of this old man, and it was obvious that this old man had an unusual identity.
Ling Xiao handed over 100,000 Pure Yang Pills and prepared to start cutting stones.
Buzz!
The scorpion stone was slowly cut by Ling Xiao. Ling Xiao's hands were steady, the stone skin flew everywhere, and the scorpion stone became smaller and smaller.
Many old monsters showed expressions of great anticipation.
Snap!
At the very end, the Scorpion Stone suddenly cracked open, and a mysterious mist filled the air, with a pungent smell, as if it contained a deadly poison.
There was a gleam of light in Ling Xiao's eyes, and with a roll of Heaven-Swallowing Qi, the mist was dispersed, and a white jade scorpion appeared in the scorpion stone.
The white jade scorpion looks very delicate, only the size of a finger, but it gives people a tingling feeling on the scalp and is extremely dangerous.
"It's actually the White Jade Longevity Scorpion? Not bad, not bad!"
There was a gleam of light in Ling Xiao's eyes. He was a little surprised, but he also recognized the origin of this white jade scorpion.
The White Jade Longevity Scorpion, like the Longevity Cicada, is an ancient spiritual insect. With the White Jade Longevity Scorpion as the main ingredient, the White Jade Longevity Scorpion Pill can be refined, which is a top-grade Taoist pill that can increase the lifespan of those below the Supreme Realm by five decades.
Although the White Jade Longevity Scorpion is not as precious as the Longevity Cicada, this White Jade Longevity Scorpion can be used to refine five or six White Jade Longevity Scorpion Pills.
"They actually cut out a treasure that can increase longevity?"
"Although the White Jade Longevity Scorpion is not as good as the Longevity Cicada, it is still pretty good!"
"Friend Ling, I want this white jade longevity scorpion. I'll pay you 200,000 Pure Yang Pills!"
"I'll offer 250,000 Pure Yang Pills!"
Many old monsters showed great surprise in their eyes. They had originally wanted to give it a try, but they didn't expect that Ling Xiao could cut out the white jade longevity scorpion with just one move. It was simply a miraculous skill.
"Friend Ling, my Treasure Pavilion is offering 500,000 Pure Yang Pills!"
The grand elder of the Treasure Pavilion spoke and directly offered a sky-high price.
Many old monsters were stunned. They did not expect that the great elder of the Treasure Pavilion would be so courageous. Five hundred thousand Pure Yang Pills were almost more valuable than the White Jade Longevity Scorpion, and could buy the Supreme Pill.
However, this is a treasure that can increase longevity after all, and it cannot be measured by ordinary value.
"Everyone, if you, Mr. Ling, sell the White Jade Longevity Scorpion to me, I will ask a master alchemist to refine the White Jade Longevity Scorpion Pill and auction it off in three days. What do you think?"
The great elder of the Treasure Pavilion said with a smile.
Many old monsters suddenly realized that the great elder of the Treasure Pavilion was planning to make another fortune.
