Chapter 37

Zhan Chen stood in front of a magnificent building and looked up. Three large words were written on the tall lintel, "Vast Sea Building". In stark contrast to the many shops that were bustling with activity, there was only one shop that sold martial arts manuals in the market.

Zhan Chen shook his head helplessly and walked in. After walking around, he discovered that the martial arts manuals sold in this Vast Sea Building were the same as in his own sect. They were all recorded on jade slips, and they were all single-use jade slips.

Zhan Chen randomly picked up a yellow-level upper grade martial arts manual and looked at it. It was priced at 420 low-grade Primordial Stones, which was more than twice the price of the three martial arts manuals of the same grade that he had just sold.

He immediately understood that he had suffered a great loss just now. Not only did he sell the manual to Shopkeeper Chen at a low price of 200 low-grade Primordial Stones, but the martial arts manuals that he had sold were recorded on the pages of the manual. If he sold it to a shop like the Vast Sea Building, he was afraid that it would be "repeatedly used".

However, he really needed metal attribute martial arts manuals, so he could only wait to be slaughtered. What troubled Zhan Chen now was what grade of martial arts he should choose. He held a yellow-level top grade sword technique, "Golden Fiend Sword Technique" in his hand and was reluctant to part with it. However, when he looked at the price, it was actually priced at 1200 low-grade Primordial Stones, which was almost three times the price of a yellow-level upper grade sword technique.

If he chose it, he would not be able to buy other sword techniques. Should he give up on the sword technique and choose a high grade sword technique and a sword technique? The joy of obtaining 20 mid-grade Primordial Stones had already vanished. Zhan Chen truly felt that he was poor, extremely poor!

After weighing the pros and cons, he finally gritted his teeth and made a decision. "Better to have nothing than to have something shoddy. I'll find another way to get this" Golden Fiend Sword Technique "first, then I'll go buy a sword. If I have spare money, I'll come back and choose another sword technique!"

After paying, he carefully hid the jade slip in his robes and walked towards the weapon shops on the street.

There were many weapon shops in the market. What was displayed on the ground and what was sold in the shops were all weapons. Almost every two steps, one could find a shop that sold swords and spears.

Zhan Chen looked at them one by one and realized that most of the weapons displayed on the street were forged with well-tempered steel, which were not suitable for his current use. Thus, he randomly walked into a weapon shop along the street.

The shopkeeper immediately came up and asked, "Sir, what weapon do you need?"

Zhan Chen asked, "Do you sell any weapons made of Millennium Coldsteel?"

Those are the treasures of our shop. Please take a look here. " Those are the treasures of our store. Please come over here. "

The shopkeeper led him to the hall at the back, where a few weapons were placed on the shelves, emitting a cold light.

Zhan Chen's spirit was roused, and he hurriedly walked forward to pick up a sword and brandished it a few times. Finally, he felt that it was comfortable in his hands, but he still felt that something was a bit different from what he had imagined. Thus, he placed it back on the shelf and asked, "Boss, how much does this Cold Iron Sword cost?"

"This sword weighs 500kg, so it costs 150,000 silver coins."

Even though Zhan Chen was mentally prepared, he couldn't help but exclaim, "So expensive!"

"Haha, guest, I think you just broke through to Martial Master."

"Chen of Chen of South.

"This is the cheapest Cold Iron Sword."

"This sword is the cheapest one."

"This type of sword is only made from pure Cold Iron. There aren't any other rare refining materials mixed in, so its price is the cheapest."

"Oh, from what you said, there are Cold Iron Swords made of other materials?"

"That's right. It's because Martial Masters mostly use elemental Quintessential Energy. Swordsmiths, in order to increase the might of their elemental Quintessential Energy, would often mix other precious refining materials into the Millenium Frost Iron to forge divine weapons.

"In that case, how much does a sword forged in this way increase the power of a Martial Technique?"

"At least 10%, and at most 50%!"

"50% increase! That's terrible! "Zhan Chen could not help but exclaim.

The shopkeeper chuckled and said, "Sir, how else do we say that you get what you pay for?"

"Then, do you sell swords with attributes?"

"This … I'm sorry, we don't."

Zhan Chen could not help but feel a sense of loss. The shopkeeper looked at him and said, "Sir, if you really want to buy, let me give you a suggestion."

"I'd like to hear the details."

"Go to the market's only large swordsmithing pavilion, the Sharp Sword Pavilion, to forge one. Of course, the price is also very high."

"I understand, thank you." Zhan Chen said and walked out of the weapon shop, heading straight for the Sharp Sword Pavilion.

Compared to the sea of people in other weapon shops, the Sharp Sword Pavilion was relatively deserted. It was obvious that there were not many people who could afford to use the swords here.

As soon as he entered, a beautiful receptionist walked up to him and asked, "Sir, what weapon do you want to forge?"

"I want to forge a metal-type sword."

"Yes sir, please come over here. There is a detailed price list on it."

The receptionist led Zhan Chen to a signboard. On it, the prices of many materials were recorded.

Zhan Chen took a closer look, "Thousand Year Cold Iron is 1000 taels of silver per catty, Flame Essence is 5000 taels of silver per catty …"

He looked at it for a long time but could not understand it. He turned around and asked the receptionist, "Why are these materials listed here?"

The receptionist replied, "Sir, this must be your first time here. The prices of the materials here are arranged according to the different needs of the customers. You can choose different materials to forge your own desired sword. "

Zhan Chen was confused, "But I don't know anything about swordsmithing."

"Then you can take a look at our sword blueprints and choose one that you need." The receptionist said as she handed him a book.

Zhan Chen opened it and saw that every page had a sword blueprint. On it, there were also the required materials and the effect of qi enhancement. Most of the swords were Cold Iron swords used by Martial Masters. There were even a few weapons used by Revered Martial Artists! He directly flipped the book to the metal attribute swords.

"This is the most expensive Gold Feather Sword. It weighs 2500 catties and can enhance metal attribute qi by 50%. It requires 50 mid grade primordial stones. This is the Proud Absolute Sword. It weighs 2000 catties and can enhance metal attribute qi by 40%. It requires 25 mid grade primordial stones …"

Looking at the swords, Zhan Chen sighed in his heart. He was really too poor! However, he thought about it again. With his current realm, he could not use swords like the Gold Feather Sword or the Proud Absolute Sword. The more expensive a sword was, the better it was. The key was to use it well.

At this moment, he saw a beautiful sword called "Sharp Gold Sword". It was bright silver and the hilt was inlaid with gold. It weighed exactly 500 catties and could enhance metal attribute qi by 30%. It required 8 mid grade primordial stones. He could not help but be in a trance. He felt as if it was the will of the heavens. He pointed at it and shouted excitedly, "This is it!"

"Sharp Gold Sword? Okay, sir. You can go to the counter in front and pay the deposit first. "

The deposit was a total of 4 mid grade primordial stones. It was only exchanged for a ticket. He had to collect the sword three days later.

Looking at the small piece of paper in his hand, he smiled bitterly. The 20 mid grade primordial stones that he had just received had not even warmed up. In the blink of an eye, he had given them all to someone else. It seemed that he still had to work hard to earn money. The path of a Martial Master was not as smooth as he had imagined.

Putting the piece of paper into his bosom, Zhan Chen walked towards the direction of the sect. On the way, he saw two familiar figures talking on the side.

Zhan Chen could not help but stop to take a closer look. It was actually Wang Yin and Su Yun!

"What are they doing?" Zhan Chen's heart began to beat violently. He could not help but lean towards the direction of the two, wanting to hear what they were talking about.

He only heard Wang Yin laugh, "Hehe, little sister Su Yun, it's rare to see you in this market. We are really fated!"

Su Yun's eyes flashed with a trace of boredom and said, "Senior brother Wang Yin, I'm sorry. I still have something to buy. I'll be leaving first."

"Hey, what is it? I can help you buy it. "Wang Yin looked at the beautiful Su Yun. His eyes flashed with a trace of covetousness.

"No need, thank you."

"Little sister Su Yun, it's fine. Tell me." Wang Yin seemed to have a hold on Su Yun.

At this moment, the gentle and kind Su Yun was being pestered. For a moment, she was at a loss. She looked around anxiously. Her gaze just happened to meet Zhan Chen's.

Zhan Chen suddenly had a bad feeling. He hurriedly turned his head and wanted to leave.
