Chapter 135: Array Fragments

Chapter 135: Array Fragments
After buying more than a dozen bottles of flower essences, Chen Ziya became even more interested. She walked and stopped along the way and looked at dozens of stalls.

Lin Changqing also looked around, trying to see if he could find something that interested him.

Unexpectedly, at this time, Chen Ziya turned around and waved at him again. Lin Changqing knew that she had found something of interest again.

When she got closer, she saw that it was a stall selling magical instruments. However, what Chen Ziya was interested in was not a magical instrument, but an array plate that was broken into three pieces, which together were about the size of two palms.

What Lin Changqing didn’t understand was, would it still be useful if it was broken into pieces like this?

But since Chen Ziya asked him to come over, it meant that she wanted him to help get this thing. He didn't need to ask, he knew what he should do.

He asked the boss directly: "Boss, how much are these pieces of formation disk fragments?"

The boss glanced at them and said, "These three pieces of formation disk fragments cost one thousand spirit stones!"

When Lin Changqing heard this, he shook his head repeatedly: "Boss, I went to buy a brand new first-level array plate, and it only costs one thousand spirit stones. If you really want to sell it, just give me a realistic price."

The boss thought for a moment and said, "Then I'll give it to you at a lower price. I'll charge you 800 spirit stones!"

Lin Changqing rolled his eyes and said to Chen Ziya, "Junior sister, what's the point of you liking this junk? If you want the formation plate, let's go buy a new one!"

Chen Ziya was indeed smart, and immediately understood what Lin Changqing meant, and said in cooperation: "This formation plate has been broken into several pieces, and it is indeed unusable.

I just thought it was ancient in form and a little different from the popular arrays nowadays, so I wanted to buy it and study it. But if it's really too expensive, forget it!"

Lin Changqing nodded, "Forget it then, eight hundred spirit stones plus a little more is enough to buy a new one."

The two turned around and prepared to leave, but the stall owner quickly stopped them and said, "Don't go yet, I'll give you a cheaper price, take a look!"

Lin Changqing shook his head and pulled Chen Ziya to the next stall.

The boss was anxious. It was rare that someone was interested in these pieces of junk. If he missed the opportunity, he would lose it. He quickly said, "I'll sell it to you for three hundred spirit stones."

Lin Changqing said without even turning his head: "Just one hundred spirit stones, no more."

Chen Ziya once again cooperated well and said to Lin Changqing: "Brother, forget it, I have already seen it just now, there is no need to buy it.

We don't have many spirit stones left, so let's save some!"

"Oh, okay! Sorry, boss, we don't want it." After saying that, he turned and left.

The boss was very anxious and quickly grabbed Lin Changqing's hand, not letting him leave, and shouted: "You can't leave. You just bargained for 100 spirit stones. I agree and sell it to you. Pay the spirit stones quickly."

After saying that, he stuffed the three pieces of array disk fragments into Lin Changqing's hands, not giving Lin Changqing any chance to refuse.

Lin Changqing and Chen Ziya looked at each other, both trying hard not to laugh.

Of course, you have to do the whole show. Lin Changqing talked to the boss for a few more words, but finally he had no choice.

Lin Changqing reluctantly paid a hundred spirit stones and bought the three pieces of formation disk fragments.

Then the two looked at each other, and continued to shop at the stalls tacitly. After looking at dozens of stalls, they finally returned to Lin Changqing's room on the top floor after wasting half an hour.

After sealing the room, the two looked at each other and burst into laughter, which lasted for a long time before stopping.

Lin Changqing said: "Junior sister, you are really kind-hearted and smart. Although this is the first time we work together, I didn't expect that we can work together so well."

Chen Ziya chuckled and said, "Brother, I didn't expect that shopping at street stalls would be so interesting. Although I only picked up a small bargain this time, it seems quite interesting!"

Lin Changqing asked curiously: "Is this thing still useful after it's broken into pieces like this?"

Chen Ziya smiled and explained, "This is a third-level array plate. The engraving on it should be the Three Talents Golden Light Array. It is indeed broken and cannot be used. But the person who refined this array plate, for some reason, actually added mithril into it. This material can be refined again.

Even if only one ounce of this thing can be extracted, it can still be worth more than 20,000 spirit stones. Moreover, this array plate is twice as large as an ordinary array plate, so it will definitely not be able to extract only one ounce, it is estimated to be around two ounces. "

After hearing this, Lin Changqing opened his eyes wide and couldn't help asking, "Is this a fourth-level spiritual material? Why is it so expensive? Isn't that two taels of mithril worth 40,000 spiritual stones?"

Chen Ziya nodded and said, "It is indeed a fourth-level spiritual material, but it is quite special. It has a formation plate or array carved with mithril, which can ensure that there will be no loss of spiritual energy when transmitting it.

Therefore, many large magic arrays require it, especially the sect's mountain protection array or large teleportation array, which definitely require mithril.

The construction of a standard large-scale teleportation array requires about eight million spirit stones, half of which may be spent on purchasing mithril and space crystals.

Like the giant maze we encountered in the center of Zi Yang Secret Realm, it must have used a lot of mithril. If we could have found it at that time, the harvest would have been great.

It's a pity that I'm not good enough to break the formation, otherwise I could get all the formation flags and formation bases out, which would also be very precious treasures."

Lin Changqing nodded, "Now I know how precious this thing is. I just happened to get the inheritance of the fourth-level refining technique in the secret realm, which also contains some introductions to spiritual materials of various levels.

When I have time in the future, I will also read it and gain some knowledge, so that I won’t be unable to recognize the treasures I encounter in the future!"

Chen Ziya also nodded in agreement: "It's always good to learn more!"

Suddenly thinking of something, Lin Changqing asked curiously: "Junior sister, are all the inner disciples of Qingyun Sect so powerful?
Isn't it possible that everyone is as knowledgeable as Junior Sister, who can easily determine that the array contains mithril?"

Chen Ziya laughed when she heard this and explained, "It's not like that. In my opinion, many inner disciples are very ordinary. It may be that they are from a sect and have some status advantages.

Of course, there must be some more elite ones, like the Chen Hao we met in the secret realm, and the senior brothers and sisters who are currently ranked in the top 100 in the sect. These talents are the sect’s core elite disciples.

But when it comes to judging whether there is mithril in the array plate, I can only say that everyone has his or her own expertise!
Just like you, senior brother, are a spiritual plant master, then you must know the three sacred trees in the world of immortal cultivation, right?
I am a formation master, and I usually like to read books. It is normal for me to learn about some spiritual materials that are closely related to formations, isn't it? "

Lin Changqing thought for a moment and nodded, "Is that so! Then I'm relieved. Otherwise, every sect's inner disciples are at the level of Junior Sister, and we won't be able to survive."

Chen Ziya couldn't help laughing after hearing this. She knew that her senior brother said this on purpose to praise her, but she was still very proud in her heart. After all, it was she who discovered that there was mithril in the array plate, and she had picked up a not-so-small leak.

Lin Changqing took a look at the pieces of the formation disk and asked, "We can't handle these pieces of formation disk outside, right? It's not safe!"

Chen Ziya thought for a moment and said, "Let's leave it to grandma. We can't refine it ourselves. When we sell it, we can give the spirit stones to senior brother!"

Lin Changqing thought about it and said, "Why not give it to my great-grandmother? She is a fourth-level formation master and it will definitely be useful to her."

Chen Ziya thought it made sense and agreed, "Well, then just give it to Great Grandmother. She will definitely be very happy to see me pick up some mithril."

Since it has been decided to give it to the great-grandmother, the thing will be given to Chen Ziya for safekeeping.

Lin Changqing said: "After two or three days when we arrive at Dongyang Prefecture, we will go to the street stalls square in Dongyang Market to see if we can find anything."

Chen Ziya was very happy when she heard this, and agreed: "That's great, Senior Brother, please take me to places like this more often in the future."

Lin Changqing laughed: "It seems that Junior Sister is very confident in herself!
But you have to be prepared, you won’t always find good stuff, you’ll understand as you experience more.”

Chen Ziya nodded and said, "I understand, but I just want to take a look! Maybe I'll find it!"

It seems that Chen Ziya got addicted to it after getting lucky once.

Seeing her confident look, Lin Changqing could only agree to her, "Okay! We'll go together when the time comes. I will definitely not forget you!"

After the two talked for a while, Chen Ziya said goodbye and went back.
