C62 Black Iron
He spent the night cultivating, and the second day came.
After eating breakfast, Wu Chen left the room. He wanted to buy some herbs and refine some pills.
On the main street, it was incomparably noisy. People came and went in an unending stream, and every place was practically packed with people. It was extremely lively.
Wu Chen blended into the crowd, strolled for two hours and bought a thousand sets of medicinal ingredients, which were enough for him to use for a long time.
"Young master, take a look. The things I sell here are all treasures. Take a look at this piece of jade. It's crystal clear and shiny."
A middle aged man showed a piece of jade to Wu Chen.
Wu Chen looked at it, and did not say anything, what kind of treasure was this, even he would despise it.
Seeing that Wu Chen did not make a sound, the middle aged man also unhappily put the jade back down and let Wu Chen see for himself.
Wu Chen frowned as he rummaged through these so-called treasures. These items were all trash, he would despise them even if they were given to him.
Just then, Wu Chen suddenly saw a black metal piece among the pile. Initially, he did not notice it, but when his hand touched it, he noticed that it was a piece of black metal.
This black piece of metal was only the size of a palm and seemed to be made of iron, but it didn't look very similar. He couldn't tell what it was and only felt that it was a bit different.
Seeing Wu Chen staring at the black metal piece, the middle-aged man laughed, then quickly picked it up and introduced it to him with a smile: "Young Master, this black metal piece is a treasure, you must not underestimate it, it will not melt in the face of fire, it will not sink in the face of water, it is extremely strange and excellent material for refining, you might as well buy it and request someone to create a weapon suitable for you, walk across the world and behead the demons and exterminate the devils."
Unmelting in the face of fire and not sinking in the face of water?
Wu Chen was startled, and immediately stirred up a storm. If he was not mistaken, this black metal piece should be the legendary Black Iron.
The Black Iron was one of the best refining materials in the world, and its value was immeasurable. Who knew how many weapons crafting masters, in order to find it, had traveled throughout the boundless universe but still could not find it. It could be imagined how once those people found out that there was a piece of Black Iron here, they would definitely come for it at any cost.
However, ordinary refiners had no way to deal with this thing and didn't know how to deal with it. This was because this thing wouldn't melt in the face of fire. No matter how fierce the flame, no matter how terrifying the high temperature was, it wouldn't be affected in the slightest.
However, to be exact, there was a method that could restrain and refine Black Iron s, and that was the Taijin Genuine Tactic. It was a metal attribute cultivation technique that could refine all metals in the world, and this Black Iron was no exception.
"Hehe, I never thought that I would find a Black Iron here. If that old fogey Fan Yue knew about this, he would definitely go crazy."
Wu Chen snickered in his heart. Fan Yue was a good friend of his in his previous life, a true Master Refiner. In order to find the Black Iron and forge a Supreme Divine Weapon, he had traveled countless of worlds, but could not find a single Black Iron.
Once, the two of them had made a bet that the bets would be on the artifact forging records and the Alchemy Grimoire. This was not an ordinary bet, because the artifact forging records and the Alchemy Grimoire were the most sacred scriptures of the world of alchemy and alchemy respectively. In the end, one won and one lost, he lost half of his Alchemy Grimoire to Fan Yue.
"How much is this piece of metal?"
The middle-aged man smiled, but didn't say anything. He only slowly extended a finger.
"One tael of silver?"
Wu Chen immediately took out a tael of silver. When the middle-aged man saw the tael of silver, he was infuriated.
"One tael of silver, send the beggar away."
Wu Chen laughed in his heart, just now, the other party had extended a finger out but did not say a word, giving him a mysterious feeling. In reality, he wanted to raise the price, but, who was he, Supreme Pill God would not suffer such a loss.
"Then tell me, how much is it?"
The middle-aged man still stretched out his finger, not saying a word.
"What do you mean? You don't want to sell it, right? Then I'll be going."
Wu Chen pretended to be furious and turned to leave.
Seeing that Wu Chen had left, the middle-aged man immediately became anxious, and quickly said: "Young master, come back and talk."
Wu Chen ignored him, his footsteps did not stop.
"I'll sell, I'll sell, I'll sell."
Wu Chen continued to ignore him, and continued to walk forward.
"One hundred liang, one hundred liang for you, what do you think?"
Wu Chen still did not turn around, his footsteps still not stopping.
"Ten liang, ten liang, this should be the bank, right?"
This time, Wu Chen finally stopped and inwardly laughed. A little brat, if you still want to fight with him, go back and cultivate for another one thousand eight hundred years.
Just like this, Wu Chen spent ten silver coins to buy the Black Iron.
"Only ten taels of silver was enough to buy the Black Iron. If that old fellow Fan Yue knew about this, he would probably be so angry that he would vomit three liters of blood."
Black Iron s were priceless treasures. If they appeared, it would definitely cause a huge storm.
In the next two days, he stayed in the inn, concocting pills as he focused on studying the Artifact Forging Record. Ever since he obtained the Artifact Forging Record, he had not studied it much. After all, he was an Alchemist, and could not distract himself to research and refine.
But now it was different, he had obtained the priceless Black Iron that the Master Refiner yearned for day and night. With such a treasure, he naturally had to concentrate on refining, working towards using this Black Iron to create a weapon that was suitable for use, and increase his own strength.
Unknowingly, the day of the auction had arrived. Early in the morning, after Wu Chen had breakfast in the inn, he had rushed straight to the first auction house.
By the time they arrived at the first auction house, it was already packed full of people. Countless people had come to participate in this time's large-scale auction, and the entire hall was bustling with noise and excitement.
After paying five thousand silver taels, Wu Chen asked for a private room. In a place like the auction house, a private room was better.
Under the guidance of the service lady, Wu Chen entered the private room. Through the glass, he could clearly see the entire auction house.
As Wu Chen walked into the private room, more and more people came from behind. Whenever the important figures arrived, it would cause a huge commotion.
Wu Chen sat on the leather chair as he chewed on the grapes. He glanced at the auction, and estimated that there were about forty to fifty thousand people gathered there. Everyone was looking forward to the auction.
