Fang Bingling continued, "You can basically find anything related to martial arts here, but there are many people and all sorts of people, especially scammers and thieves, so you have to be careful."
Ye Feng was indeed very interested, so he went into the market with Fang Bingling.
Not far after walking, Ye Feng saw a stall displaying many demon beast cores.
These demonic beast cores look like spherical lakes, with patterns running through them.
The higher the grade of a monster, the more patterns it has.
A first-grade demon beast's inner core naturally has one demon pattern, a second-grade demon beast's inner core has two demon patterns, a third-grade demon beast's inner core has three demon patterns, and so on, so a tenth-grade demon beast naturally has ten demon patterns.
The highest grade of the demon beast cores on this stall is only fifth grade.
Seventh-tier demonic beasts correspond to the True Essence Realm of human martial artists, sixth-tier demonic beasts correspond to the Separation and Union Realm of human martial artists, and fifth-tier demonic beasts correspond to the Qi Movement Realm of human martial artists.
In other words, the inner cores of the demon beasts on this street stall are actually not very valuable, since their grade is too low.
The sheer number of demon beast cores displayed here is still quite impressive.
Ye Feng squatted down and picked up a fifth-grade demon beast inner core to examine it.
The middle-aged man sitting in the chair chuckled and said, "Sir, the inner core of this demon beast in your hand is that of a fifth-grade Golden-Patterned Iron-Wire Python. It took me a great deal of effort to kill it and obtain this inner core..."
The stall owner launched into a long, detailed explanation, even recounting his battle with a fifth-grade demon beast.
His expression was very smug, and he seemed very proud of his victory over a fifth-tier demon beast.
Night Breeze asked with a smile, "Stadium owner, how much is this Rank 5 demon beast inner core?"
"One hundred mid-grade spirit stones!" the stall owner said without hesitation.
"Huh? It's so expensive?"
These words were not spoken by Ye Feng, but by Fang Bingling.
Fang Bingling immediately followed up, "A fifth-grade demonic beast isn't that powerful, yet you're selling it for a hundred mid-grade spirit stones? That's outrageous!"
The stall owner's expression turned somewhat awkward.
After glancing at Fang Bingling a few times, the stall owner noticed that her clothes were quite extraordinary, and it was clear at a glance that she came from a wealthy family, perhaps even a prominent clan. Only then did he say, "Little girl, if you don't understand the intricacies, you shouldn't talk about it, lest you become a laughingstock."
Fang Bingling said in a serious tone, "A fifth-grade demonic beast is only equivalent to a Qi Movement Realm human martial artist. There are plenty of Qi Movement Realm martial artists in Fengyuan City, so it's nothing special! Therefore, this demonic beast's inner core is not worth this price at all; ten mid-grade spirit stones would be more appropriate!"
"you……"
The stall owner's face turned ashen, and he looked extremely annoyed.
If it weren't for Fang Bingling's status, he might have taught her a lesson.
Ye Feng put down the demon beast's inner core, stood up, and said, "Let's go."
"Aren't you going to buy it?" Fang Bingling asked.
"I wasn't planning on buying it anyway; I just wanted to check out the market," Ye Feng said with a smile.
"Oh, I see." Fang Bingling suddenly realized.
After walking about a hundred meters forward, Ye Feng's attention was drawn to something.
The object was a palm-sized piece of black metal with a slightly glossy surface, giving it a heavy feel.
Ye Feng strode over and squatted down in front of the stall.
However, he did not pick up the black metal piece to examine it directly, but instead looked at other items first.
Ye Feng did this intentionally to confuse the situation and prevent the stall owner from knowing what his target was, otherwise it would be difficult to negotiate a lower price.
After examining several items, Ye Feng finally picked up the piece of black metal.
As true energy was injected, the piece of black metal heated up slightly, and it also gave Ye Feng a strange feedback—after the true energy was injected, the metal seemed to become heavier!
It really is a celestial stone!
Ye Feng thought to himself, a slight sense of joy rising in his heart, but he didn't show it on his face.
Celestial Stone is an excellent material for refining weapons, and Ye Feng can use it just in time!
Lei Ji is now a tenth-level perfected spiritual artifact, and Ye Feng feels it's time to refine it again and upgrade it to the level of a magic weapon.
If Lei Ji could also become a magic weapon, its power would definitely be even greater!
However, to refine Lei Ji into a magic weapon, several rare materials are needed, and Tianxing Stone is one of them!
"Stadium owner, what is this metal made of?" Ye Feng asked.
The stall owner stammered and mumbled a lot of nonsense, it seemed he didn't know what it was either.
Night Breeze chuckled and said, "Stadium owner, you've said so much but haven't explained it clearly. It seems you don't know what this thing is either... Hmm, if it's not too expensive, I can buy it and take it back to study it."
Upon hearing Ye Feng's words, the stall owner's face lit up with joy.
"Ten mid-grade spirit stones, what do you think?" the stall owner asked.
Only ten mid-grade spirit stones?
That's way too cheap!
The true value of this Celestial Star Stone is far more than ten mid-grade spirit stones; a thousand mid-grade spirit stones would be an understatement!
Ye Feng nodded and said, "Alright, then ten mid-grade spirit stones will do."
After saying that, Ye Feng paid the money and delivered the goods, buying the Tianxing Stone.
However, just as Ye Feng was about to put it into his storage ring, a woman's voice suddenly came from not far away.
"Wait! I want this celestial stone, but could you please let me have it?"
Someone actually recognized this as a celestial stone?
Ye Feng turned his head to look in the direction from which the sound came, and saw a young woman in a black dress walking quickly towards him.
This woman had long, jet-black hair, and two crescent-shaped daggers hung at her waist. She moved with a swift and decisive air, rather than any hesitation.
"How could it be her?" Fang Bingling whispered.
"Do you know her?" Night Wind asked.
Fang Bingling immediately said, "Mr. Ye, this woman is called Xiao Mingyue, the eldest daughter of the Xiao family! Originally, she was the second daughter, but since the rebellious young master was expelled from the Xiao family, she has become the eldest daughter. Xiao Mingyue has amazing talent and is very strong. She is already at the peak of the True Yuan Realm!"
It turns out they are from the Xiao family.
Night Breeze looked enlightened and laughed, "I'm sorry, I can't give you this Celestial Star Stone."
"I'm willing to pay two thousand mid-grade spirit stones for it!" Xiao Mingyue said without hesitation.
Upon hearing Xiao Mingyue's words, the young stall owner immediately showed a look of deep surprise.
He never dreamed that the piece of metal he sold for ten mid-grade spirit stones would be worth so many spirit stones!
The stall owner was filled with regret, his heart was bleeding, and his face showed resentment.
In his opinion, he had been deceived by Ye Feng!
