I Have Infinite Systems In The Immortal World

" Those are… Coarse stones?"

" Yes, Those are coarse stones."

Someone couldn't understand as he asked, " What's so special about them?"

" Well, Coarse stones are simply unrefined Abstract Stones. A single Coarse stone contains a few Abstract Stones."

" However, the thing is, One can still gauge the presence of jade from the Abstract Stone. But Coarse Stones are simply too mysterious, no one knows if it got jade filled Abstract Stones or simply busts."

" The price isn't low at all, but the chances of failure are higher than picking an Abstract Stone."

" But, They are excellent tools for judging someone's luck and appraisal skills." Someone else added.

Jia Hao's expression turned stiff when he saw Long Ming standing before the pile of Coarse Stones. The pitch black stones simply bounced back the divine sense, making everyone elude from the things inside it.

" Come, Elder Jia… Please, show your seniority and experience here." Long Ming didn't hold back his taunt at all.

According to the quest description, he needed to make people vomit blood. So why not? Long Ming was giving his best to make people die from anger and jealousy. 

" Hmph! Brat, Those Coarse stones are nothing before me." Jia Hao snorted as he walked to the stone pile.

" There are stones of various prices, from 500,000 High grade spirit stones to 10 Million grade.

The ten million one was a giant stone that stood like a monument. There should be at least a few pieces of jade inside it. However, it's simply risky to purchase that one.

After all, even if there are some jade pieces, they need to surpass the value of ten million to make a profit. Such high investment might not produce such high profit at all.

Using the ancient mirror, Jia Hao looked for a suitable stone amidst the pile of Coarse Stone. However, he and Jia Qing subconsciously glanced at Long Ming, who was also looking for a good stone.

Suddenly, they saw Long Ming glancing at round Coarse Stone with a glint of greed. Then he looked around and pretended that he hadn't noticed it.

" Brother Long, That one…"  MingYuexin pointed at the stone, but Long Ming pulled her back. " Ahem, Sister Ming, We will see that."

Jia Qing noticed the small action as he tugged Jia Hao. Jia Hao's sense didn't miss that also. And the ancient mirror also showed a bit of aura around the stone.

" That stone… I want that one." Jia Hao pointed at the stone.

" Ah, This one? This one costs 200,000 High grade spirit stones." The old man sitting there gauged the value as he spoke in a calm voice.

" Ahem, Mister, I am also interested in that stone. How about this? I will pay 300,000 High grade spirit stones."

" How is that possible?" Jia Qing retorted. " My uncle made the bid first. That stone is obviously his."

" Not really, Young Man." The old seller shook his head. " As our old custom, as long as the trade is incomplete, people can bid for a stone. The highest bidder shall win."

" Hmph, Then I bid for 500,000!" Jia Hao's voice rang as he made his bid.

" One million." Long Ming didn't step back.

" Two million." Jia Hao snorted when he heard Long Ming.

" Damn it! Five million!" Long Ming clenched his fist as he looked at Jia Hao. " Elder Hao, you better give up. I don't think you carry that much money."

" Hehe, I am excited  about that stone… maybe there is something miraculous inside it." Ming Yuexin's giggled. Her voice wasn't loud, but many people with kneen sense heard that.

" Sister Ming, Can't you just stand silently?" Long Ming frowned when he heard Ming Yuexin. Mu Qinglian also tugged the dress of Ming Yuexin making her shut up.

Jia Hao's chest thumped. He was observing Long Ming's desire for that stone and Ming Yuexin's reaction.

' He was looking for grade one Abstract Intent Jade… What if… What if that stone…' Jia Hao felt his heart was in turmoil. 

A grade one Abstract Intent Jade can be considered a treasure on par with a peak Earth grade treasure. Not to mention, the rarity and effects are even greater than Earth grade treasures, reaching Noble grade.

And for the price, a grade one Abstract Intent Jade could be sold for more than fifty million high grade spirit stones.

" Eight million!" Jia Hao shouted.

" Fifteen Million!" Long Ming raised his price again. Jia Hao could see Long Ming's anxiety was increasing, making him feel gloated.

" Twenty million!" Jia Hao finally spoke.

Long Ming stomped his feet. " Damn it… Haah, This isn't good. I am leaving." 

Jia Hao laughed when he heard Long Ming. " What happened, Brat? Aren't you flaunting your wealth? Now, Who is laughing, huh?" 

He mocked while giving the spatial ring to the seller.

" Hehe, Uncle, you were right. Some people just act big and high, while they don't have any ability to compete." Jia Qing joined in.

But the moment Jia Hao paid the full twenty million high grade spirit stones, Long Ming's anxiety vanished like a puff of smoke.

" Oh well, I guess I am the poor one now, huh?" Long Ming chuckled. " Hmm, Why don't we see inside that stone?"

The sudden change in Long Ming's reaction caught Jia Hao off guard. An ominous feeling rose in his heart as he asked the seller to cut the Coarse Stone.

As the stone was peeled layer by layer, Jia Hao's anxiety increased more and more. Suddenly, a bright blue light flashed as a refreshing scent filled the atmosphere.

" Look! There is something!"

" Could it be…"

Jia Hao's heart thumped as he laughed out loud. " Haha! I got it! I scored big…"

But then, the cheering crowd suddenly became silent, and everyone's expression turned strange.

" What the fuck is that?"

They saw the stone was hollow inside as a puddle of bright blue fluid oozed out. There was a very thin layer of blue inside that stone along with the puddle of liquid, but that's all.

The question is…Where is jade?

" Th-This… This can't be…"

Jia Qing acted like a bolt of lightning stuck on his head he slumped on his knees.

" Eh? What was that radiance? Why there is only a puddle of water?"

" Aha! This is Bright Jade Water… To think I will see such a superior grade Bright Jade Water here."

" What's a Bright Jade Water?" A young cultivator asked.

" Well, As you know, Abstract Intent Jade forms inside the stone, right? But if there is an invisible defect in the shell of stone, the jade condensation process will be affected, making it turn into liquid."

" So, It's a waste?"

" Well, You can't say that." The old cultivator rubbed his beard, coughing with wisdom. " I mean, Bright Jade Water is used in pill refinement. And this one, I can say, the best Bright Jade Water I have seen in my life, even one with Water attribute."

" If you can sell it, you will get 500,000 High grade Spirit stones."

*SILENCE*

The crowd was enlightened when they heard the words of the old cultivator. Certainly, the Bright Jade Water isn't a waste at all.

But unfortunately, For Jia Hao… It's worse than waste.

One has to know that twenty million High grade Spirit stones could be considered the total liquid fund of some medium size aristocratic families and sects. And, Jia Hao lost that much instantly.

" Yo-You! Bastard! You set a trap for us!"

Jia Qing's expression turned livid when he realized Long Ming's plan. Long Ming only shrugged.

" You got really a big mouth, Brother Jia. Did I force you to buy it?" Long Ming snorted. " Did I say there was an Abstract Intent Jade inside it? Who told you to compete with me?"

" Motherfucker!"

Jia Hao's eyes turned red as his Harmonization Realm Aura erupted. However before he could attack Long Ming, a gigantic mist palm appeared in the air, giving off tremendous pressure.

" Fighting is strictly forbidden in Treasure Market. All violators shall be punished severely." 

The voice boomed, making everyone aware of the power behind the Treasure Market.

" Tch, Attacking because facing loss out of his own greed." Long Ming sighed. " A cultivator should polish his mind and heart. I know for Elder Hao, This is just a pocket change. But, I hope he learns something from this."

" Bastard!!"

Jia Hao coughed a mouthful of blood out of anger.

Then, Long Ming turned and purchased a few Coarse Stones. And what? He got four grade two Abstract Intent Jade, each as big as a stone tablet, size of two palms.

He only spent two million spirit stones, getting a profit of forty million spirit stones.

Seeing that, Both Jia Hao and Jia Qing coughed a mouthful of blood. Especially Jia Hao, who was already on the verge of fainting.

But then…

*DING*

The atmosphere changed as sharp gusts of gale blew like it was the arrival of the storm. The chants of the dao rhythm merged with the wind, making it like a gale of supreme wind. 

A green jade like a big watermelon appeared on Long Ming's hand, one could see the swirling tempest inside it.

" Grade one! That's a wind type Grade one Abstract Intent Jade!"

" Motherfucker! He only bought it with three million!"

" Just by looking at it, I can take a glimpse into the Intent of Wind!"

" Fucking ridiculous!"

However, Long Ming only showed it a bit before storing it away. " " Mr, This stone slab of ten million, I want it."

" Hoho, Go ahead. This stone slab has been here for ten years. I guess it finally met its master." 

Long Ming only grinned. " Well, Why not?"

"Some people just look at the superficial appearance and deem it as the true self." Long Ming chuckled as he placed his palm on the giant stone slab. " But real secrets are always hidden in depth, right?"

Lifting the giant stone slab, he put it inside his Spatial Ring.

The crowd erupted with loud noise.

" What the hell! Why didn't you cut it?"

" Yeah! Show what's inside! I want to know!"

" Damn it! What a ruthless move!"

" I am dying to know! That stone slab is worth ten million high grade spirit stones!"

Jia Hao was unwilling, but he couldn't do anything in Azure Fragrance City. Jia Qing was also seething in anger when he saw Long Ming holding Ming Yuexin and Mu Qinglian in his arms.

As for Li Qingxin? 

Everyone seemed to have forgotten her.

" Well, Thank you, Sister Ming. Your acting skill is professional." Long Ming winked.
