Tianbei Exchange Fair, Part Two

Wow, so many extraordinary individuals!

The vast exchange area was packed with people, with extraordinary individuals dressed in various equipment and wielding all sorts of weapons thronging around.

The group came down from Spark No. 1 Shelter and headed towards the arena.

Xiao Youxiu and the others looked at the scene before them with expressions of amazement.

They arrived rather late; a quick glance across the exchange area revealed at least tens of thousands of extraordinary individuals.

The stalls were neatly arranged along the grounds, displaying a dazzling array of extraordinary materials, weapons, spiritual herbs and fruits, all shimmering with spiritual light.

There were even shouts and haggling sounds, making it resemble a huge 'vegetable market'.

Let's head straight to the central area.

Xia Lieyang addressed the group, his gaze falling on Cao Fengqi. He said, "Brother Fengqi, our Spark Guild also has many items for trading. Let Xia Yang show you around later."

"No need, let's browse separately and see if we can find anything we need."

Cao Fengqi shook his head.

"Alright, some vendors want to trade specific items. If you have any questions, Brother Fengqi, you can contact us via communicator."

"Okay, okay, President Xia, you don't need to be so polite."

Cao Fengqi spoke with him, and the group passed through one extraordinary person after another to reach the center.

In the core area, a curtain of light descended from the sky and enveloped it.

Directly above the light screen was the Thundercloud Flying Boat.

There is a law enforcement post at the entrance, with two rows of heavily armored law enforcement officers standing solemnly on both sides.

After everyone paid a level 6 soul, they entered. Cao Fengqi looked inside, a hint of shock flashing in his eyes.

Treasures, treasures everywhere.

The supplies at levels 7-10 are densely packed and countless.

"There are quite a few level 10 players; it seems this exchange meeting really has a lot of good stuff."

"That's true. Tianbei Base City is about to relocate to the Fifth Land of Shelter. Once there, the unknowns are everywhere, and all the forces want to exchange their unused treasures for items that can enhance their strength."

Cao Fengqi thought to himself, filled with anticipation for the countless treasures.

He obtained a blueprint for the Nation-Protecting Flood Dragon Sky Crossbow at the Spark Exchange Meeting, and there were definitely items there that would be of great use to him.

"In the very center, there are eleven stalls belonging to various factions. This time, they've probably brought out quite a few good items from their treasure vaults. Young brother, you can take a look."

Guo Daoming reminded him, "Of course, those rare level 9 or even level 10 resources are usually only traded at the very end, or through auctions."

"Good!"

Cao Fengqi nodded.

For some extremely valuable items, sellers will generally choose to sell them through auction in the last hour of the exchange in order to obtain higher profits.

Some of the booths belonging to those various factions were still empty, clearly indicating that they had not yet arrived.

"Dad, why don't you two just wander around? I'll go take a look by myself."

Cao Fengqi looked at his father and the others and spoke.

He planned to wander around alone, since everyone had different professions and needed different items.

In addition, he has a cheat scanner and a specific target.

"Okay, I'll take your mom and sister-in-law to see your uncle, and we'll come find you later."

Cao Jiancheng nodded and did not disturb him.

"Good!"

Cao Fengqi responded, his eyes sweeping around the room.

"Level 8 resources don't offer much of a boost anymore, so my goal this time is to have a stall with level 9 resources."

"There are quite a few stalls with level 9 supplies!"

He thought to himself, "No time to waste. I'll just lock onto the stall with level 9 supplies and head straight there."

"Level 9 Klein Metal."

Cao Fengqi to the first stall selling level 9 supplies. He found it to be a metal block that emitted a purple light.

It weighs approximately five pounds.

How much for this piece of grade 9 metal?

Cao Fengqi looked at the middle-aged man setting up the stall and asked.

"Trade for an 8th-level heavy shield, or 15 7th-level souls."

The middle-aged man looked up at him and replied.

"It's too dark."

Cao Fengqi raised an eyebrow; this price was equivalent to 1200 jin of grade 8 metal.

"Don't give me random quotes. You can't trade 240 kilograms of level 8 metal for one kilogram of level 9 metal?"

He looked at the middle-aged stall owner and spoke.

"..."

The middle-aged man pursed his lips. "This level 9 metal of mine is extremely precious."

"250 jin (122.5 catties) of grade 8 hard gold, are you in or not?"

Cao Fengqi looked at him and asked.

Five kilograms of level 9 metal was still too little for him, but now he had more level 8 metal than he could use, so he could trade some of it.

There should be quite a few level 9 metals throughout the exchange; every little bit counts.

"This... young man, you're haggling way too much."

The middle-aged stall owner looked helpless. He thought for a moment and said, "Young man, let's exchange contact information first."

Cao Fengqi was speechless at his reaction, but still nodded.

It's normal for this guy to be waiting for the right price; the exchange has only just begun.

No one wanted to rashly part with the treasure they possessed.

He didn't pay too much attention to it, and after exchanging contact information, he headed towards the second stall that had level 9 treasures.

It's still a piece of grade 9 metal, weighing 8 jin (approximately 4 catties).

"A 1:50 exchange rate is acceptable."

The stall owner was quite satisfied with the price offered by Cao Fengqi and agreed to the deal.

Cao Fengqi smiled and put it away.

"There is a level 10 resource here, one of the five level 10 resources currently in the area. I don't know if it's metal."

Cao Fengqi glanced at a stall not far to his right, and walked straight towards it, lost in thought.

[Formation-Breaking Talisman: Level 10 Quality]

[Effect: Can break through level 10 and below formations, safely creating a fissure to enter. One-time use item.]

"Hmm? It's not metal."

"This Formation-Breaking Talisman?"

Cao Fengqi looked at the level 10 item with a look of astonishment on his face.

Is it a disposable item, or is it this special kind of item?

"Formation-Breaking Talisman..."

At that moment, a thought suddenly popped into Cao Fengqi's mind.

If I had this Formation-Breaking Talisman, would I be able to enter the area shrouded in the magic array at the Fate Witch Grand Church?

He still clearly remembered the information he received from the cheat system when he first entered the Third Sequence and headed towards that area:

[The surrounding magical formations and poisonous miasma deal 20% damage per second to the user, resulting in death after 5 seconds.]

He has now entered the Fourth Sequence, his strength has increased dramatically, and he also possesses the ultimate Defense Transfer skill.

If he could enter the formation, the poisonous miasma alone shouldn't be fatal to him.

In that area alone, he scanned 16 level 9 supplies, plus one special item.

Furthermore, the energy of Gu-Raising Altar and the Gu-Fusing Altar originates from there.

There must be some great treasure in that area.
