Chapter 2460 The Secret of the Black Stone
Chapter 2460 The Secret of the Black Stone
Under Fatty Ge's unwavering gaze, the black stone emitted dazzling rays of light, as beautiful as a rainbow.
"Isn't this the same as what I saw before?"
Seeing the stone change like this, Fatty Ge really wanted to slap Qin Fei across the face.
He was already tired of seeing such changes, so what kind of secret was this?
"The reason you haven't figured out what secret this stone holds is simply because you don't know its value!"
The next second, Qin Fei injected another burst of power into the stone, and under the stimulation of this power, a terrifying pressure swept out directly from the black stone.
It was as if a sword had suddenly fallen from the sky and was pointing directly at his head. At that moment, an intense sense of life and death crisis enveloped Fatty Ge's mind, making the hairs on his body stand on end.
He had a feeling that he might die in the next second!
Fortunately, this feeling came and went quickly. In just a moment, the powerful pressure disappeared, and the feeling of despair that made one's heart palpitate also vanished.
"What...what did you just do?"
He forced himself to swallow, and even subconsciously took several steps back, because he suddenly felt a little afraid to get close to the black stone.
Because that oppressive force was released from this black stone.
He never dreamed that this black stone would have such power, which really terrified him.
"I didn't do anything special, just poured power into this stone." Qin Fei shrugged, then said, "This black stone isn't some powerful magic weapon; in fact, it's a forbidden weapon that was artificially crafted!"
"Forbidden weapons?"
"The disposable kind?" Fatty Ge quickly asked.
"It should be!" Qin Fei nodded.
Although he only released a tiny bit of power from the stone, it made Fatty Ge feel a strong sense of life and death crisis. It's hard to imagine how terrifying the power would be when the black stone is fully activated.
Of course, once the power inside is exhausted, the thing's function will also disappear.
"How did you discover this secret?" Fatty Ge asked, wiping the cold sweat from his forehead.
"That involves my personal secrets, and I can't disclose that information," Qin Fei said decisively.
Seeing this, Fatty Ge didn't press the matter further, because he knew that everyone has their own secrets, and if he insisted on finding out these secrets, then he and Qin Fei would probably never cross paths again.
He was a shrewd businessman, but also a smart man; he knew what to ask and what not to ask.
"If I had known that this black stone was of such great importance, I shouldn't have put it on the auction stage. It can only be said that our Ge family has been fooled this time."
Looking at the black stone in Qin Fei's hand, Fatty Ge couldn't hide his envy.
The pressure released from inside was much higher than his own cultivation level. If he could also possess such a forbidden weapon, wouldn't that be equivalent to having an extra life?
"Brother Qin, why don't you sell me this black stone, and I'll give you 20,000 crystals!" Fatty Ge was planning to use money to bribe Qin Fei.
Unfortunately, Qin Fei remained unmoved after hearing this. He quickly put the black stone into his spatial ring and then said, "The fact that you can run such a large exchange means that the power behind you must be quite strong. You don't need this black stone for much. But I'm different. You should know my situation. This thing might be very useful at a critical moment, so don't even think about taking it."
At this point, Qin Fei lowered his voice and said to Fatty Ge, "Moreover, I need you to keep this secret strictly confidential. If it gets out, we might not even be able to remain friends anymore."
"Don't worry, I know what to do."
Seeing that Qin Fei refused to sell it to him, Fatty Ge finally gave up on this unrealistic idea.
Regardless of whether Qin Fei purchased the black stone through normal means at his auction, even if Qin Fei bought it privately, he has no right to force Qin Fei to resell it to him.
Besides, Qin Fei is no ordinary person, so Fatty Ge certainly wouldn't dare to act recklessly.
"Here's the crystal back. You've really hit the jackpot this time," Fatty Ge said in a sour tone.
"What I'm making is nothing compared to what you're really making. You're the one who's really hit the jackpot."
Without hesitation, Qin Fei took out another batch of liquor from his spatial ring, about two hundred bottles.
This was all the stock he had in his spatial ring. After all, alcohol wasn't a necessity, so Qin Fei hadn't prepared too much in his spatial ring.
Before anyone knew where the wine came from, Qin Fei planned to sell it all for cash.
"so much?"
Seeing Qin Fei take out so much wine at once, Fatty Ge couldn't help but show a look of shock on his face.
If we calculate based on 500 crystals per bottle, this would be over 100,000 crystals.
Fatty Ge is now even starting to doubt whether Qin Fei brewed all this wine himself, as there's just too much of it.
"Can you help me sell them?" Qin Fei asked directly.
"of course can!"
Fatty Ge spoke without even thinking.
"Then let's calculate it at 500 crystals per bottle, and you can keep the rest as your own profit," Qin Fei said.
If you want a horse to run, you have to feed it. If Fatty Ge can sell these wines at a higher price through his own abilities, that's his own skill.
"No problem, I'll take care of it."
Previously, Fatty Ge had launched a series of activities to collect crystals around these wines, and now he can continue such activities.
"By the way, I'm only giving you two days. If you haven't sold all your wine by then, you must give me all the crystals." Qin Fei set a deadline for Fatty Ge.
"it is good."
Once he confirmed that Fatty Ge had successfully accepted the order, Qin Fei didn't hesitate any longer and turned to leave.
His main purpose in coming here was to get back the crystal that belonged to him. Now that he has achieved his goal, there is no need for him to stay here.
Moreover, he needs to go back and do some in-depth research into what exactly the black stone is all about.
Upon returning to the restaurant, Qin Fei immediately locked himself in his room and set up an array around himself.
He had previously told Fatty Ge that the black stone was a forbidden weapon, but in reality, he had misled him.
The black stone was indeed extraordinary, because it not only contained a powerful destructive force, but also had a small pebble in the center that looked like a seed.
Qin Fei now strongly suspects that the destructive power within the black stone is intended to protect the small pebble at its center.
Of course, if Qin Fei wanted, he could also unleash the destructive power within the stone to kill enemies.
Qin Fei wasn't sure if this force would also kill him along with it.
Why didn't Fatty Ge and the others observe what was inside the stone before?
That's because there's an extremely fine array on the surface of this stone. This array is so small that it can't be seen with the naked eye, or even sensed.
Otherwise, Fatty Ge probably wouldn't have put this thing up for auction as a rare item.
There was a small object in the center of the stone. Qin Fei's X-ray vision couldn't tell what it was, but he really wanted to take it out right now.
But once he touches that forbidden power on the outer layer, he might pay an unimaginable price, and might even kill himself.
"We'll just have to keep it for now."
Qin Fei himself is not strong enough to withstand that force. Perhaps he can give it to his master to open when he sees him again.
For the rest of the time, Qin Fei stayed in the restaurant without moving. His cultivation level had reached the late stage of the Heavenly Profound Realm, and he could break through to the Earthly Profound Realm at any time. But before that, he still needed to sort out the insights in his mind.
Two days later, Qin Fei arrived at Ge Pangzi's exchange as promised. However, to Qin Fei's surprise, he only sold half of the one hundred bottles of wine in two days, leaving fifty bottles unsold.
But Fatty Ge had promised Qin Fei that if he couldn't sell them all within two days, he would have to pay Qin Fei the full price of 500 crystals per bottle.
"Here are the crystals I promised you, not one less."
Despite being a shrewd businessman, Fatty Ge is very trustworthy when it comes to things he has promised, which is a quality that a businessman should possess.
"Do we need more wine later?" Qin Fei asked at this moment.
"We probably don't need it for now. I feel the market is almost saturated," Fatty Ge shook his head.
There are many people who drink alcohol, but very few are willing to pay a high price for it. In addition, the population of this place is relatively small, so the sales of this alcohol are somewhat limited before the market expands.
"Alright then, come find me whenever you need me."
Qin Fei originally wanted to brew wine using his own methods, but since Fatty Ge no longer wanted it, even if he brewed it himself, he probably wouldn't be able to sell it, so why waste his time?
After leaving the exchange, Qin Fei noticed that there were many more powerful figures in the city, indicating that more and more powerful individuals had been teleported over from there.
Thinking of this, Qin Fei suddenly wanted to go and take a look at the teleportation altar.
Of course, he was more interested in seeing if he could go back to Earth.
Upon arriving at the teleportation altar, Qin Fei spotted the Zhang family expert from a great distance.
He saw the other person, and the other person naturally saw Qin Fei as well, and even nodded to him in acknowledgment.
"You've been making quite a splash lately, kid." The Zhang family's powerful figure remarked as Qin Fei approached.
"Senior, please don't talk nonsense. I'm clearly keeping a low profile right now, okay?" Qin Fei replied.
"Yes, they are indeed very low-key, almost to the point of directly confronting the Qi family." The other party nodded and said.
Qin Fei: "......"
