Chapter 2960: Forced To Sell?

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!

Sword Qis ricocheted in the shop for a while. They had shot out from the half-open Origin Stone that was glowing with a mysterious light in Duan Ling Tian’s hand.

As time passed, the glow gradually faded along with the sword Qis that shot out of the sword-shaped Origin Stone.

It was clear the earlier phenomena indicated how extraordinary the content was. The content was undoubtedly more precious than the King Grade Celestial Weapon that Han Yun He obtained earlier.

Everyone in the shop, excluding Duan Ling Tian who had regained his senses first, was thoroughly shocked. Their eyes were wide open, and their mouths were agape. It took quite a while before they regained their senses.

Duan Ling Tian recovered so quickly because the aura of the half-open Origin Stone was similar to the three Royal Grade Celestial Weapons he had in hand. Currently, he had one consumable Royal Grade Celestial Weapon and two ordinary Royal Grade Celestial Weapons. The two ordinary Royal Grade Celestial Weapons were not his; he was only temporarily holding on to it. The two Royal Grade Celestial Weapons were the Mystical Yin Nine Water Chestnut Ring and the Mystical Yang Nine Water Chestnut Ring; they belonged to the mysterious young man with the surname Pei. Meanwhile, he had obtained the consumable Royal Grade Celestial Weapon during the Six Southeastern Region’s Alchemist Conference in the borderlands.

The consumable Royal Grade Celestial Weapon had three uses, and he had already used it once so he was only left with two uses. After using it up, the consumable Royal Grade Celestial Weapon would be rendered useless.

“S-such an aura... C-could it be a Royal Grade Celestial Sword?” Huang Jia Long finally regained his senses. A hint of shock and disbelief could still be seen on his face when he looked at the half-open Origin Stone in Duan Ling Tian’s hands.

At this moment, the hilt of the sword and part of the blade could be seen from the half-open Origin Stone. It was an emerald sword that looked as though it was made from Ink Jade. Many tiny inscriptions could be seen from what was exposed of the sword. Among the inscriptions, there were cursive writings well. They looked ancient. Apart from that, a blood-red line ran down the middle of the blade of the sword. It pulsed and looked as though blood was constantly flowing through it.

Pa! Pa! Pa!

Duan Ling Tian gripped the hilt of the sword and exerted some force and shattered the remaining Origin Stone that encased the sword. In just a moment, an emerald sword with a blood-red line that ran down the blade was fully revealed. At this time, the mysterious glow had vanished without a trace, making the sword look like an ordinary sword. Nevertheless, the mysterious light and Sword Qi that appeared when the Origin Stone was half-open left a lasting impression in everyone’s minds.

If anyone were probing with their Divine Consciousness at this moment, they would be able to sense how extraordinary it was compared to a King Grade Celestial Weapon.

The onlookers broke out in an uproar as soon as they regained their senses. Traces of disbelief could still be seen on their faces.

“A Royal Grade Celestial Sword! It’s a Royal Grade Celestial Sword!”

“Heavens! I didn’t think I’d be so lucky to be able to see a Royal Grade Celestial Sword with my very own eyes!”

“The last time there was a Royal Grade Celestial Weapon in our Solitary Nation seems to be about 1,300 years ago, right?”

“It’s truly a Royal Grade Celestial Sword!”

At this instant, Huang Jia Long’s eyes flashed with killing intent as he looked around his surroundings. He only had one thought in his mind at this moment: Kill everyone in the shop to prevent news of him obtaining a Royal Grade Celestial Sword from spreading!

Alas, Huang Jia Long was too slow. An old man with a white beard, the person in charge of the shop, had already sent a Communication Celestial Talisman out as soon as he regained his senses. The Communication Celestial Talisman he had used bore his soul mark; it was unstoppable.

At the same time, the white-bearded old man walked out from the deepest part of the shop toward Huang Jia Long. He had seen what had happened earlier so he knew the Royal Grade Celestial Sword belonged to Huang Jia Long. He said, “Dear guest... Our shop is willing to buy this sword for ten million prominent Celestial Crystals.”

“Ten million prominent Celestial Crystals?”

Upon hearing that, everyone in the shop stared at the old man as though he was an idiot. Did he lose his mind? They were talking about a Royal Grade Celestial Sword! He wanted to buy it for ten million prominent Celestial Crystals? What a joke!

“10 million prominent Celestial Crystals?” Huang Jia Long who was stunned by the old man’s offer laughed when he regained his senses. “Old man, do you think I’m a brash and naive young man? Even the lowest bid for a Royal Grade Celestial Weapon in the Profound Nether Mansion starts at 1,000,000,000 prominent Celestial Crystals if I’m not mistaken.” He scoffed before he continued to say, “Even then, most people would not sell their Royal Grade Celestial Weapons for 1,000,000,000 prominent Celestial Crystals if they own one!”

Although there were many people who were willing to pay exorbitant prices for a Royal Grade Celestial Weapon, no one in the Southern Heaven Territory who owned Royal Grade Celestial Weapons was willing to sell them. People had offered up to 10,000 times the price of a normal King Grade Celestial Weapon for a Royal Grade Celestial Weapon! The price of a Royal Grade Celestial Weapon was also exactly 10,000 times of a King Grade Celestial Weapon!

“That’s right! Does he really think they’re inexperienced?”

“As far as I know, this shop is owned by the Ninth Prince of our Solitary Nation... The ninth prince is the most business-minded among all princes!”

“It seems like the shopkeeper is trying to force the young men to sell the Royal Grade Celestial Sword they obtained from the Origin Stone.”

“Well, if this is what the ninth prince wants, I’m afraid these young men will have a hard time holding on to the Royal Grade Celestial Sword. After all, the ninth prince has the support of the emperor!”

“As the saying goes, ‘A rare treasure would land its owner in jail’.”

The customers in the shop shook their heads as they looked at Duan Ling Tian and Huang Jia Long. Based on their conversation, it was clear they thought the duo would be forced to sell the Royal Grade Celestial Sword at such a low price!

At this moment...

Thud! Thud! Thud! Thud! Thud!

The sound of heavy footsteps rang in the air, and soon enough, a tall and muscular middle-aged man dressed in a white robe stepped into the shop.

“Dear guest, we’re closing our shop now. Please visit the other shops in West Lane Town.” The white-bearded old man could not help but frown when he saw another person coming into the shop. Then, he turned to the shop assistants standing at the side idly and shouted, “You lot! Escort this customer out, and close the shop. We’re close for business today!”

The old man was aware that the fewer people knew about the Royal Grade Celestial Weapon, the better it would be. He had already received a reply from the Ninth Prince of the Solitary Nation. He had been ordered to take control of the situation and to close the shop for the day. He had also been ordered to stop those already in the shop from leaving and to prohibit new customers from entering the shop. As for what happened next, the ninth prince, who was hurrying from the palace to the shop, would decide when he arrived.

Since the white-bearded old man was in charge of the shop, the shop assistants, naturally, dared not defy him. They quickly walked toward the white-clad middle-aged man who had just entered to escort him out.

Before the shop assistants could approach the white-clad middle-aged man, they heard him scoffing loudly. Then, they were instantly blocked by what seemed to be an invisible wall, bouncing off and falling to the ground as soon as they walked into it!

Upon seeing this, the people in the shop inhaled sharply.

The white-bearded old man glared at the white-clad middle-aged man fiercely as he said, “Sir, do you know who owns this shop?” Although he was the strongest among the employees in the shop, he had failed to capture the white-clad middle-aged man’s movements earlier. Therefore, he did not dare to act recklessly and could only try to scare the white-clad middle-aged man off by using the name of the shop’s owner.

The white-clad middle-aged man ignored the white-bearded old man and walked toward Duan Ling Tian. He said with a smile, “Little Tian, show me the sword.”

The white-clad middle-aged man who had just appeared was none other than Bai Gang who was secretly protecting Huang Jia Long and Duan Ling Tian.

“Uncle Bai.” Duan Ling Tian handed the sword over without any signs of unwillingness. Most people would feel a hint of reluctance having to give up a Royal Grade Celestial Weapon even if it did not belong to them in the first place. However, that was not the case for Duan Ling Tian. Put aside the fact that he had three Royal Grade Celestial Weapons in his Spatial Ring, even when he was in mundane realms, he had already owned a sword of this caliber. It was the Seven Treasures Exquisite Pagoda’s Jasper Celestial Sword.

After ascending to the Spirit Overarching Heaven, not only did Duan Ling Tian learn that the Seven Treasures Exquisite Pagoda was an Emperor Grade Celestial Weapon, but he also learned that the Jasper Celestial Sword was a Royal Grade Celestial Weapon.

‘Although this sword is also a Royal Grade Celestial Weapon, it seems inferior to the Jasper Celestial Sword... In fact, even the Mystical Yin Nine Water Chestnut Ring and Mystical Yang Nine Water Chestnut Ring seem to be more powerful than it,’ Duan Ling Tian thought to himself as he watched Bai Gang study the sword.

At this moment, Duan Ling Tian was still unaware of how extraordinary the Jasper Celestial Sword was. How could a sword from a top-tier Celestial Weapon like the Seven Treasures Exquisite Pagoda be an ordinary Royal Grade Celestial Sword? It was, naturally, the best Royal Grade Celestial Weapon!

Just as Duan Ling Tian had speculated, the Mystical Yin Nine Water Chestnut Ring and the Mystical Yang Nine Water Chestnut Ring were also, indeed, superior to this sword. In fact, they could be considered superior among all Royal Grade Celestial Weapons.
