C14 Gambling Stone
There were three major cities at the edge of the Liangzhou, and one of them was called the Red Iron City. Because the surrounding mountain ranges were rich in hematite, many cultivators came here to pay their respects, and because there were many blacksmith shops here, although most of them refined common weapons, a few Yellow Rank weapons would appear every month.
West Side Street was the famous street for blacksmiths, where the blacksmith shop accounted for more than fifty percent, and the ore shop and herb shop for twenty-five percent each.
At this moment, Ye Xuan was on the West Street, ignoring all the blacksmith shops. He was not interested in the original stone mining shop or the herb shop.
This Red Iron City was only five hundred kilometers away from the Silver Moon Valley. Since Ye Xuan wanted to create his own spear, he naturally had to come here and purchase some high-quality raw ore or refined iron and copper.
"The God Stone Workshop? "The name of this ore mine is indeed domineering, and its signboard is quite big as well. Maybe there really is something good inside." Ye Xuan was immediately interested when he saw a paving stone lion house with a bronze door and a plaque that looked quite nice. He stepped through the door.
There were a few shop assistants from the God's Stone Workshop. Seeing Ye Xuan, a fifteen to sixteen year old boy, with his average appearance and ordinary clothes, without a follower, he was too lazy to bother.
In the front hall, there were all kinds of ores and some of them were clearly priced. There could be considered to be some fine ores, but they were too far away from what Ye Xuan needed.
Just as he was about to leave, he heard loud noises coming from the back hall. Ye Xuan couldn't help but be slightly surprised and knew that there was actually a stone gambling business in the God Stone Workshop.
"Buddy, there's a rock gambling ground at the back of the inner hall, lead the way." Ye Xuan looked at the shop assistant who was dozing off and said coldly.
That shop assistant was probably having a beautiful dream, drooling at the corner of his mouth. However, he was woken up by Ye Xuan, and his anger started to rise.
"A little kid like you wants to bet on a stone?" He must be going to watch the show! Are there any Spirit Stone s? You haven't even heard of Spirit Stone? "Fine, there's gold and silver in there, right? Show it to me before I let you in." The shop assistant looked at Ye Xuan in annoyance and mocked him coldly.
"I am truly curious. Your mouth stinks so much, yet you don't lose an arm or a leg. It can be considered quite a miracle." Ye Xuan said lightly.
"Brat, what nonsense are you talking about? Don't think that you can brag about yourself in our God Stone Square at such a young age. Do you know who opened the God Stone Workshop? "Go play on the side, be careful that I don't beat you up." The shop assistant pointed at Ye Xuan's nose and swore.
Ye Xuan didn't reply, he raised his hand and smacked the shop assistant's face with his big mouth.
The poor fellow spat out a mouthful of blood and lost all his teeth. He covered his face, wanting to say something, but he didn't dare to. This youth was clearly a cultivator. His hands were so strong that half of his face was lifeless.
"He's not dead, right? "Lead the way if he doesn't die." Ye Xuan ordered coldly.
The shop assistant had a sullen look on his face as he quickly led the way for Ye Xuan. He was sullen and wanted to find an opportunity to take revenge.
After passing through the inner hall and another small bridge, they finally arrived at the backyard of the God Stone Market. Ye Xuan saw hundreds of people gathered there, surrounding the ore mine in all kinds of ways, and all of them had the dream of picking up the loot and becoming rich.
Gambling Stones didn't rely on luck, but on the art of looking for Qi. Ye Xuan was very familiar with this method, so it was a good opportunity to find a suitable ore to forge his own weapon.
When they arrived at the backyard, the shop assistant disappeared like a wisp of smoke. Ye Xuan didn't care too much. What could a waiter do? Even if he found someone to take revenge on him, he wouldn't be afraid.
"Today was really bad luck. I consecutively opened nine pieces of ore, but I didn't see any pure gold or black iron. They are all hematite, it's really killing me!"
"The ore you opened sold for 50 taels of silvers and you still want to sell it for treasure? "I, a hundred Spirit Stone, threw in and opened up a quail egg sized piece of fine iron, it's too much of a pit."
"Refined iron is not bad, but it's a bit small. If it were a lot bigger, it would have been worth it."
"I don't want any Refined Iron or Golden Mystical Iron. Give me a few bigger pieces of Copper Ore, please bless me, Daoist Immortals!"
… ….
There were ordinary merchants and cultivators betting on stones, but there were almost identical losers and no winners.
From one of the corners, someone cried out, "Rich! Rich! It's celestial gold! It's the legendary celestial gold!"
For a moment, everyone surrounded Ye Xuan, the Great Power that was the immortal of his past life.
Ye Xuan was just going to watch the show, he didn't believe that the ore in the God Stone Workshop could produce immortal gold.
What was celestial gold? Eternal immortality, indestructible, yet invincible!
If there was a sliver of celestial gold in the armor, it would be impregnable. If there was a sliver of celestial gold in the armor, nothing could escape it.
And this level of weapon and protective gear had already surpassed the level of a Heaven-grade weapon. It could even be called a godly weapon.
Although he knew that it definitely wasn't immortal gold, Ye Xuan still squeezed into the crowd. With the Protective Astral Qi slightly released outwards, everyone staggered and fell, effortlessly arriving at the innermost circle, taking in the entire scene of the rock being cut.
The man who cut the rock was bald, and did not have a good appearance. He had a pockmarked face and was very vulgar. His forehead was covered with sweat, and he was clearly very nervous.
He held a dark green stone knife in his hand and slowly cut at an oval shaped ore.
This ore was completely black, like a piece of broken stone. However, a crack had been revealed, and rays of golden light shot out from the depths of the broken rock. It was just like an illusion, just like the legendary immortal gold.
Ye Xuan looked at the bald man's hand. It was unusually steady, and he wasn't nervous at all. This was celestial gold! Even a Spirit Travelling Cultivator would feel their heart beating faster and their hands trembling.
The so-called divine light that was being released was too dazzling. Other people had never seen the divine light before, but Ye Xuan could see it too much. The true immortal light was faintly discernible, like the faint shadows of a human breathing.
Oh, he had to dig an opening and embed the Dazzling Light Stone into the ore. After sealing it, he could only trick the young master of the gambling den with such a crude method.
Ye Xuan shook his head in disdain. Then, he turned around and left. He lost all interest in watching for even a second longer.
