Free Web NovelChapter 505: Wishing Stone 1
Soon after, the group left the inn and went to the wishing stone.
The wishing stone was a rectangular black monument.
It was ten metres tall, three metres wide, and half a metre thick.
At a glance, it looked ordinary, but on closer look, one sensed an invulnerability that could defy human interference and the passage of time.
"Who wants to go first?" Shen Xu asked, looking at his companions.
"I..." Zhen Yuan started, but the double immediately shook his head.
"You will go last." He decided, and the others immediately nodded in agreement.
After all, Zhen Yuan was an anomaly of heaven and earth.
Considering that, they didn’t dare to let him go first for fear of attracting trouble before they were ready to leave Tianji city.
"I will go." Li Wenqiang volunteered.
"Okay." Shen Xu said, and Li Wenqiang nodded before taking his place in the queue.
Although the wishing stone was large, it could only accommodate one person at a time.
Because of this, Tianji City had arranged guards to keep the order, but these guards neither charged nor tried to prevent anyone from accessing the stone.
Li Wenqiang was the fifteenth person in the queue, and the others followed behind him.
At this time, a female cultivator walked to the stone, placed her hand on it, and silver writing began to appear on the monument.
Simultaneously, a jade box flew out of the wishing stone and landed on the female cultivator’s palm.
"Clear cloud fruit." Someone exclaimed, looking at the silver writing.
"It’s actually a clear cloud fruit." Another shouted, and a trace of greed flashed in his eyes.
The clear cloud fruit was a level nine spiritual treasure that could allow a tribulation transcending realm cultivator to advance a small realm.
However, the female cultivator was a Mahayana realm cultivator and didn’t need the clear cloud fruit for the time being.
"This ancestor is willing to accept any terms if the little friend is willing to part with the clear cloud fruit." A low voice suddenly filled the surroundings.
Hearing the voice, the female cultivator trembled but soon regained her composure.
With a polite expression, she bowed and then began speaking.
"This junior does not need the clear cloud fruit, but her father urgently needs this treasure." She said in a resolute voice.
"Which fellow Daoist is this little friend’s father?" The voice asked, probably wanting to gauge whether the other side could be offended or not.
"This junior’s name is Dongfang Hua, and my father’s name is Dongfang Min." The female cultivator said, causing the surroundings to fall into silence.
At the same time, Shen Xu narrowed his eyes with a thoughtful expression.
[She is Dongfang Jing’s younger sister.] He transmitted, and Zhen Yuan nodded.
Although they didn’t actively investigate the Dongfang family, they knew bits and pieces, especially matters related to Dongfang Jing and Chen Yi.
[The Dongfang clan is a big family, and few people dare to mess with them. She should be fine for now.] Zhen Yuan said.
Hearing that the female cultivator belonged to the Dongfang family, the tribulation transcending realm cultivator stopped talking, and the young woman stepped away from the wishing stone.
The second person received a level nine healing pill, but unlike Dongfang Hua, they didn’t have a prominent background and were forced to sell the pill.
One after the other, fourteen people received things from the wishing stone, but only Dongfang Hua received a truly valuable treasure.
When his turn came, Li Wenqiang walked forward with a confident face and placed his hand on the wishing stone.
Soon after, silver writing appeared on the monument, and a wooden box flew into his hands.
At the same time, a shocked gasp echoed in the surroundings and the atmosphere became obviously charged.
"Metal element sacred stone." Someone muttered, and others began to whisper.
"Is it really one of the ten coloured stones?" Another asked, unable to believe that one of the sky mending stones had suddenly appeared.
"Does anyone know that person?"
"I don’t know him."
"I have also never seen him."
"How can an unknown person be worthy of one of the ten coloured stones?"
"It’s doubtful that he can keep it." A female cultivator sneered, and on cue, a familiar voice echoed in the surroundings.
"Little friend, name your price." The voice ordered, and Li Wenqiang sneered.
"This junior thanks the senior for his interest, but I don’t plan to sell this stone." He said, and a snort echoed in the surroundings.
"Don’t refuse a toast only to be forced to drink a forfeit." The voice said, but Li Wenqiang didn’t take it to heart.
On one hand, he believed in his strength and wasn’t worried that he would lose if the person chose to rob him, and on the other, fighting wasn’t allowed in Tianji city.
Even if the person wanted to rob him, they would have to wait until they were out of the city.
Thinking this, Li Wenqiang stepped aside, making way for Yin Shi.
A breath later, writing appeared on the monument, and another gasp echoed in the surroundings.
"Primordial blood grass." A female cultivator muttered in disbelief.
"Is the wishing stone broken? Why did another unknown person receive such a gift?" Someone asked.
The ten coloured stones were legendary treasures that an ancient goddess used to mend the sky after the gods and demons’ war.
Even though the unknown person had only received the metal element sacred stone, it was already an invaluable treasure that many would kill to own. freёwebnoѵel.com
Unexpectedly, before everyone could calm down after the incident, another unknown cultivator received a primordial blood grass.
"The primordial blood grass can allow a monster to return its primordial roots." Someone excitedly said.
"I heard that the sect master of the Hanging Garden sect found and contracted a golden carp in a dangerous area. Wouldn’t the golden carp transform into a true golden dragon if it refined the primordial blood grass?" A male cultivator asked.
"It’s not just the sect master of the Hanging Garden sect. How many powerful cultivators have contracted monsters with good ancestry but weak bloodline?"
"That person is just a fusion realm cultivator. She shouldn’t think of keeping the primordial blood grass."
However, Yin Shi thought it and happily did it.
Even before the familiar voice finished asking her to sell the grass, she put the box in her natal space and stepped away from the wishing stone.
’I shudder to think what will happen when it’s my and Zhen Yuan’s turn.’ Shen Xu thought and looked at the wishing stone with complicated eyes.
He had long heard that the wishing stone could gift invaluable treasures. fгeewebnovёl.com
However, he never thought that priceless treasures like ten coloured stones and the primordial blood grass could also be gifted.
That said, he didn’t regret coming.
After all, the metal element, sacred stone and the primordial blood grass were treasures that one could find but never seek.
With the metal element sacred stone, he could refine Li Wenqiang’s body into a divine weapon and with the primordial blood grass, Yin Shi could completely purify her bloodline and become a true ten-element honey bee.
’Receiving so many treasures will attract trouble, but we will manage it somehow.’ Shen Xu thought and turned to Zhen Yuan, who nodded with an understanding expression.
After Yin Shi was Feng Xue.
Soon after placing her hand on the monument, writing appeared, gasps filled the air, and a box appeared in her hand.
"Yin-yang divine flame." Someone shouted.
"What’s going on?" Another asked with an incredulous face.
At this time, the surrounding cultivators began to suspect that something was wrong with the wishing stone.
In no time, several people rushed towards Yang Shi and bribed him to cut the line.
Seeing this, Shen Xu sent a voice transmission, and Yang Shi grudgingly agreed, allowing five cultivators to stand in front of him.
As a result, the five excitedly walked to the wishing stone, expecting extraordinary gifts, but only received some lacklustre items.
When they saw this, the spectators calmed down, but they turned to Li Wenqiang, Yin Shi, and Feng Xue with suspicious eyes.
"I suspect that they are disguised masters." Someone said.
"The wishing stone is the most mysterious treasure in our Tianxuan continent, but it’s not difficult to deduce some of its rules. Lucky and blessed cultivators have always gotten better treasures regardless of their cultivation." A female cultivator said.
"I know this too." A male cultivator said and quickly continued.
"These three are not ordinary cultivators. They must be children of luck, extraordinary geniuses."
"Isn’t it said that ancestor Xiao Weimin of the Hanging Garden sect is the child of luck? Can there be more than one child of luck?"
"Has ancestor Xiao Weimin ever come to the wishing stone?" Someone asked, and another nodded before speaking.
"I heard that he came here three hundred years ago." He said, attracting the surrounding people’s attention.
"What kind of treasure did he get? What about ancestor Zhu? I heard that he is also a very lucky person."
