"I've heard my father talk about this before. It's said to have been passed down since ancient times, but it's long been lost. Not only does it have powerful combat power, but it's also extremely tough. It can even hide in danger," Invincible Jin said with a smile.
"There's such a magical thing." Zhou Yang looked at Hungry Ghost and said, "Hungry Ghost, can you tell me more about your puppets?"
"Of course. My puppets are all genuine antiques. They're divided into three levels: Heaven, Earth, and Human. The seven-man Human-grade puppets are equivalent to the Mercury Grade, the Earth-grade puppets are equivalent to the Wood Grade, and the Heaven-grade puppets are equivalent to the Gold Grade."
"Gold Grade puppets …" Zhou Yang was stunned.
"Zhou Yang, did you hear that? This is good stuff, but it's quite expensive. I want to buy a Heaven-grade one, but it costs 80 copper coins. Even if I borrow Lone Wolf's, I'm still short of 10 copper coins. Only you can help me now," Invincible Jin said.
Zhou Yang nodded and gave the 10 copper coins to Invincible Jin without thinking much about it.
After Invincible Jin received the puppet, Zhou Yang took a closer look. He realized that the puppet was much bigger than an ordinary person. It was about nine feet, and he could indeed hide his body inside it.
However, he was still not satisfied with just a Gold Grade puppet …
After Invincible Jin left in satisfaction, Zhou Yang approached Hungry Ghost and whispered, "Is there a better one?"
"This …"
Hungry Ghost looked around and whispered, "There is, but it's not allowed to be sold, unless …"
"I only have 100 copper coins left. Do as you see fit," Zhou Yang said with a smile.
"100 copper coins." Hungry Ghost shook his head. "Brother, I think you should buy a Heaven-grade one. I won't sell it for less than 200 copper coins."
Zhou Yang furrowed his brows and looked at Lady Jiu.
Lady Nine was one of the few people who had more money. However, the value of the copper coins had already reached 10 million, so he was too embarrassed to ask for it.
"Zhou Yang, are you short of money?"
Lady Nine seemed to have read Zhou Yang's mind, so she walked over and asked.
"Do you have any left?" Zhou Yang asked.
"I have 20 left. If you want to use them, take them." Lady Nine took out two strings of coins.
Zhou Yang frowned. Even with these 20 coins, he only had 120 …
"Brat, do you want to obtain this puppet?"
At this moment, the Dragon Spirit said in a sly tone.
"You have a way?" Zhou Yang said happily.
"Of course. However, you must promise to help me obtain the Dragon Soul."
"Even if you didn't ask, I would've helped you get the Dragon Soul. That was our agreement."
"Haha … Kid, I didn't misjudge you." The Dragon Spirit laughed loudly. After laughing, it said, "Go back and see if the door to the outer hall is locked."
Zhou Yang instinctively turned around and saw that the door was still open.
"Since it's open, it means we can go back. Go back and take the scale."
"Ghost Scale!"
Zhou Yang was startled. He had tried to take the Demonic Scale away before, but because the Guardian Spirit was there, he was afraid of breaking the rules, so he didn't take it.
"Brat, what are you afraid of? Even if you break the rules, you won't die here. Moreover, can't you tell that the guardian spirit is the ancestor of the Zhou Family that the old Dean mentioned?"
"What?"
Zhou Yang was even more surprised. The Zhou Family's ancestor was indeed in the Black Scale Cave, but he never thought that the guardian spirit was the Zhou Family's ancestor …
"Fight!"
Thinking of this, he quietly retreated to the outer hall and strolled around. Then, he secretly took the Demonic Scale to a corner of the outer hall.
"What do we do now?" Zhou Yang asked.
"Kid, don't you find it strange that when you put rare treasures on it, heavy copper coins will appear?" The Dragon Spirit laughed.
"This …" Zhou Yang shook his head. He really didn't think about it. After all, this was the Black Scale Cave, a place that even the old Dean couldn't figure out.
"Everything has a reason. Copper coins can't appear out of thin air. If I'm not wrong, there's a storage space similar to a storage ring in the Demonic Scale Cave. Copper coins are hidden in it."
Hearing the Dragon Spirit's words, Zhou Yang hurriedly rummaged through it. As expected, there was a small bead at the bottom of the scale. After touching it, it felt exactly the same as touching the storage ring.
"It should be this. But how do I take out the copper coins?"
"That's even easier. This storage space is connected to the Demonic Scale. Then, you just need to drip your blood to make it your own." The Dragon Spirit laughed.
"Really?"
Zhou Yang was a little suspicious. This was too simple.
"Whether it's real or fake, we'll know after trying it."
Zhou Yang nodded. He immediately cut his finger and dripped a drop of blood on the Demonic Scale.
"Hum …"
The Demonic Scale Cave flashed. In the next moment, Zhou Yang felt that he had a connection with the Demonic Scale. The items in the storage space were also clear at a glance.
"There are actually so many."
After counting carefully, Zhou Yang realized that there were more than 400 copper coins in the storage space.
400 copper coins. This was a huge number.
He immediately put the Demonic Scale Cave into the storage ring and walked to Hungry Ghost.
"Take out your best goods." Zhou Yang looked at Hungry Ghost.
"Brother … You have money?" Hungry Ghost asked doubtfully.
"Nonsense. Would I say that if I didn't have money?" Zhou Yang laughed.
Hungry Ghost thought for a while and took out a small copper puppet. "This is my precious bronze puppet. It's extremely hard. Even Celestial Dipper Star martial artists can't break it. Earth Fiend Stars with average combat power are definitely not its match. However, it's also very expensive. At least 400."
"Isn't it 200?" Zhou Yang frowned.
"Brother, 200 is just a black iron puppet. It's just one level higher than the heaven grade. This is a bronze puppet. If I wasn't trapped here, I wouldn't sell it even if it was 40,000, let alone 400."
Trapped here …
Zhou Yang immediately asked, "It's impossible for such a powerful thing to not have any flaws, right?"
"Of course there are flaws. This thing needs at least 10 copper coins to be used. If you want to use its full combat power, you need at least 100. Moreover, it can only be used once. After using it, it's basically useless. Hehe …" Hungry Ghost laughed awkwardly.
"So that's how it is …" Zhou Yang was a little disappointed. The strongest combat power could only be used once.
"Brother, don't be anxious. I can make it cheaper. How about 380 for you …"
"Two hundred and eight …" Zhou Yang returned a hundred in one go.
"Brother, you're too unpredictable. 370 …"
"280!"
The two of them continued to haggle, and in the end, Zhou Yang bought the Bronze Puppet for 300.
At the same time, the auction for the last Inheritance Key ended.
The winner was Li Changhe, but the price was as high as 190 copper coins.
"Everyone, you now have two choices. The first is to stay here for two hours. You can leave the Black Scale Cave safely. The second is to enter the next level. However, I warn you in advance that this is your only chance to leave safely. Once you choose to enter the next level, more than half of you will lose your lives …"
