Chapter 596: Manager Xing, There's Something Wrong with This Minor Creation Cauldron
The moment those four words were spoken, Song Zhenfei was shaken to his core.
Xing Zhong and Liu Yuncui were also briefly stunned, turning to look at Shi Tianhao.
They all knew who Cangqing Supreme was.
A dragon clan powerhouse who had rampaged through the Southern Sky Archipelago ten thousand years ago.
So dominant that even other cultivators at the Supreme Realm in his generation could not lift their heads.
He had even dared to challenge a Saint.
Though he was utterly defeated in the end, he managed to survive under the hands of that Saint.
That alone showed the terrifying extent of his power.
However, Cangqing Supreme mysteriously vanished eight thousand years ago.
Many cultivators speculated that he died somewhere within the Southern Sky Archipelago.
All his lifelong inheritances and divine weapons were said to be buried with him, waiting for a fated successor.
Any item tied to Cangqing Supreme would immediately skyrocket in value!
Song Zhenfei took a deep breath and nodded repeatedly. “Very well!”
Shen Mo, however, let out a quiet sigh.
This Song Zhenfei truly regarded Shi Tianhao as a brother.
Yet when Xing Zhong and Liu Yuncui cast a single threatening glance at him, Shi Tianhao turned around and betrayed Song Zhenfei without hesitation.
A poor judge of character, truly.
But it was understandable.
Shi Tianhao was simply too skilled at putting on a facade.
And Song Zhenfei’s heart was far too simple.
Falling into a trap was only a matter of time.
Then Song Zhenfei suddenly stood and said solemnly, “I, Song Zhenfei, possess a family heirloom called the Evil-Banishing Divine Thunder Pearl. Once refined into a spiritual tool, it can release Evil-Banishing Divine Thunder—especially effective against demons and malevolent forces.”
“Island Master Xing, I believe you’ve heard of it?”
Xing Zhong's eyes burned with desire, though he concealed it well. “Vaguely. Wasn’t it forged by your esteemed father?”
Song Zhenfei nodded. “Yes, as you may have heard, my father Song Changgen was a renowned saint-tier artifact refiner in the Southern Sky Archipelago.”
“He crafted three complete saint-tier spiritual tools in his life.”
“But one half-finished saint-tier item remained because he passed before completing it.”
“That half-finished item is precisely this Evil-Banishing Divine Thunder Pearl.”
Shen Mo was a little surprised upon hearing this.
No wonder Xing Zhong and Liu Yuncui went to such lengths to set up this scheme.
A saint-tier item—even if incomplete—was enough to drive people mad.
Once obtained, one’s power would soar.
Against Nirvana Realm cultivators of similar dao pattern quantity, it would guarantee absolute dominance!
“Just a half-finished saint-tier tool…” Xing Zhong’s eyes flickered, but he shook his head with a strained expression.
As though trading the Minor Creation Cauldron for the Thunder Pearl would be a loss on his part.
“Island Master Song, that stone tablet of yours isn’t bad. I happen to be fond of researching dragon script.”
“How about this? Hand over both the Evil-Banishing Divine Thunder Pearl and the tablet, and I’ll give you this Minor Creation Cauldron.”
Xing Zhong tapped the table and slowly spoke, as if making a major concession.
Shen Mo couldn’t help frowning.
That stone tablet was the real treasure here.
Its value far exceeded the Thunder Pearl.
Song Zhenfei looked deeply pained, still caught in hesitation.
After a long pause, he finally seemed to have made up his mind and said solemnly, “Alright, I—”
Shen Mo suddenly spoke. “Manager Xing, there’s something wrong with this Minor Creation Cauldron.”
Xing Zhong had just been rubbing his hands together in anticipation.
But hearing Shen Mo’s words, he froze.
Then his eyes turned icy as he glared at Shen Mo—like a venomous snake ready to strike.
“Boy, what did you say?”
Shen Mo remained calm. “The surface markings—at a glance they look like wear from age. But in truth, they resemble cracks.”
“If Island Master Song buys it and it shatters after only a few uses, then what?”
