Chapter 51: The Man in Black [New]

Translator: 549690339

The cultivator who bought the Superior Energy Gathering Pill had not left for long before a slightly portly middle-aged man arrived at the stall and inquired:

“Do you have Seven-Star Grass for sale?”

“Yes, how much would you like?” Lin Jing replied. The middle-aged man did not respond, but instead asked: “How much do you have?”

“In total, 2000 pounds.” Lin Jing answered truthfully.

“2000 pounds…”

The middle-aged man thought for a moment, then said:

“I’ll take it all. Name your price.”

Lin Jing was startled. The man was so generous to directly take it all.

But this was also good, as selling in one go would save him the trouble.

Lin Jing then said:

“You must be aware of the black market prices, which are generally twenty percent higher than those outside in the Fang Market. Let’s go by the black market rates.”

“For these 2000 pounds of Seven-Star Grass, how about 3600 Spirit Stones?”

The middle-aged man nodded and said, “That’s fair.”

“However…”

“Trading with Lower Grade Spirit Stones is too troublesome; let’s use Medium

Grade Spirit Stones instead. What do you think?”

“Medium Grade Spirit Stones? Of course, that’s fine.” Lin Jing nodded.

“The current exchange rate is 1 Medium Grade Spirit Stone to 110 Lower Grade

Spirit Stones. So, 3600 Lower Grade Spirit Stones would equal a little over 32

Medium Grade Spirit Stones.”

“You can just give me 32 Medium Grade Spirit Stones.”

Having said that, Lin Jing took out a Storage Bag and began transferring the Seven-Star Grass out of it.

The middle-aged man inspected the transfer, and once satisfied, transferred the Seven-Star Grass into his own Storage Bag.

It took a while for all 2000 pounds of the Seven-Star Grass to be transferred.

After receiving the Seven-Star Grass, perhaps because the quality was good, the middle-aged man was in a good mood and spoke magnanimously:

“Friend, I won’t take advantage of you. Look, the Elixir Medicine on your stall is quite decent.”

“I’ll buy that as well. How about Seven-Star Grass and that Elixir together for

40 Medium Grade Spirit Stones?”

“Fine. ”

Lin Jing was happy with that and nodded in agreement.

The Pure Energy Gathering Pill was worth about 800 Lower Grade Spirit

Stones, and together with the Seven-Star Grass, it made a total of 4400 Lower Grade Spirit Stones, which equaled exactly 40 Medium Grade Spirit Stones when converted. So everyone came out even.

The middle-aged man then took out 40 Medium Grade Spirit Stones from his Storage Bag and handed them to Lin Jing.

And Lin Jing, in turn, handed over the Pure Energy Gathering Pill to the middle-aged man, completing the transaction.

Afterward, the middle-aged man took his leave.

Lin Jing then picked up a Medium Grade Spirit Stone and observed it carefully.

It was his first time seeing a Medium Grade Spirit Stone. Compared to Lower Grade Spirit Stones, it was somewhat larger and appeared to be more pure.

When held in his hand, he could clearly feel the immense Spiritual Power within it.

It was said that many Formations or Array Plates could now be activated with Medium Grade Spirit Stones, whereas Lower Grade Spirit Stones, which contained too little Spiritual Power, would not suffice at all.

After the slightly portly middle-aged man left, Lin Jing’s stall was left barren.

Since it looked rather unappealing, Lin Jing took another Pure Elixir out of his Storage Bag and placed it on the stall.

This time, it was a Pure Blood Coagulation Pill.

Some time passed.

A man dressed in black, wearing a conical hat, stopped in front of Lin Jing’s stall and stared at the sign, hesitant and undecided.

“May I know what you’re looking for?” Lin Jing asked.

The man stepped forward, hesitated for a moment, and then said:

“Fellow Daoist, do you have any Pure Elixir Wound Healing Elixirs here?”

The Wound Healing Elixir is an advanced version of the Blood Coagulation Pill.

Both are used for healing injuries, but while the Blood Coagulation Pill is a First Rank Elixir Medicine, the Wound Healing Elixir is a Second Rank.

Apparently, the man in black had noticed the Blood Coagulation Pills on Lin Jing’s stall, which was why he had stopped here.

“A Pure-grade Wound Healing Elixir?” Lin Jing repeated.

“Yes,” the man replied.

“I’m sorry, but I don’t have that at the moment.”

After hearing Lin Jing’s response, the man in black bowed his head and turned to leave.

“However…”

Suddenly, Lin Jing changed his tone and said: “If you can afford to wait for a while, I might be able to help you acquire one.” Lin Jing didn’t make promises too casually.

Upon hearing Lin Jing’s words, the man in black turned around sharply, looking directly at Lin Jing even though the see-through black veil of his hat obscured his vision, Lin Jing could feel his anxious gaze.

The man in black asked eagerly, “How soon do you think you can get it?”

Looking at the man in blacks eager demeanor, Lin Jing pondered to himself:

“This man in black seems quite anxious. If I’m not mistaken, he must need the Pure Body Restoration Pill to save someone in his family.”

After some thought, Lin Jing replied:

“It won’t take very long. If everything goes well, I’ll be able to get a Pure Body Restoration Pill within six months.”

Six months wasn’t considered long.

Creating a Pure Elixir was immensely difficult; it largely depended on luck, and nobody could guarantee producing one within half a year, which is why the market experienced such a shortage.

But Lin Jing was different, as he had access to the System Space. Inside the Alchemy Room of the System Space, he had an increased success rate for producing Elixir Medicines, so creating a Pure Elixir wasn’t very difficult for him.

Nevertheless, even so, he still needed time. According to Lin Jing’s estimate, if nothing went wrong, he would be able to produce at least one batch of Pure Elixirs within two months.

The black-clad man required a Second Rank Elixir Medicine, and Lin Jing wasn’t very proficient at crafting those yet, so he still needed some time to practice.

Additionally, crafting Second Rank Elixirs was extremely draining. Lin Jing had to spend a great deal of time recuperating and could at most produce only three batches a day.

It was these factors, along with his reluctance to reveal too much, that led him to quote a six-month timeframe.

After hearing Lin Jing’s words, the man in black lowered his head again:

“Thank you, Fellow Daoist, but I don’t have the luxury to wait that long; at most, I only have one month.”

“I must take my leave to continue my search elsewhere,” the man said.

Having said that, the man in black made to depart.

Just then, a voice came through.

“I think, aside from him, no one else in the entire black market will be able to provide the Elixir Medicine you’re looking for.” “And that includes the whole Nanshan Market as well.”

Lin Jing looked up.

The opulently-dressed youth moved with a calm and steady pace, exuding a unique aura from within, and appeared to be the young master of a major family.

Furthermore, he was exceptionally handsome and wore a slight smile on his lips while he looked at Lin Jing and walked toward him.

However, what Lin Jing found more noteworthy was that this person moved about the black market without any concealment at all, indicating the sheer power of his family and their fearlessness towards any petty criminals..
