The tens of thousands of treasures in the treasure pool were accumulated over countless years. It could be foreseen that there would only be more and more treasures here. This was because there were many people who participated in the gamble, but not many people could win in the end. As a result, it created a situation where more people entered than left.
The experts in the treasure pool were used to the dense light of treasures. After all, many of them had seen it more than once. On the other hand, the Divine Ocean Realm cultivators who came to the Reincarnation Tree with their elders but were not qualified to participate in the battle of the Divine Ocean Realm. They were simply here to broaden their horizons.
A female cultivator who had not seen much of the world covered her mouth and exclaimed, "There are so many good things. If we could sell them, how many spirit jades would they fetch?"
A senior brother beside her smiled and said, "Junior Sister, you may not know this, but the value of the treasures in the treasure pool can be determined by the number of starlight. Look carefully at those treasures. Do you see that each of them has a different number of starlight?"
The female cultivator looked and nodded. "Yes, there are some with one starlight, two starlight, and three starlight!"
"This is Old Shu's classification of treasures. It is a little different from the orthodox classification in the cultivation world, but it is not far off. Those with one starlight are one-star treasures, those with two starlight are two-star treasures, and so on … A one-star treasure is worth about ten thousand spirit jades. A two-star treasure is three times the value of a one-star treasure, and a three-star treasure is three times the value of a one-star treasure."
The female cultivator exclaimed, "Then wouldn't a three-star treasure be worth ninety thousand spirit jades?"
"Theoretically, that is correct." The male cultivator nodded.
The female cultivator looked carefully for a moment and said excitedly, "Senior Brother, Senior Brother, look, there are four-star treasures in there!"
There were indeed four-star treasures, but there were not many of them. In this treasure pool with tens of thousands of treasures, one would not be able to find them if one did not look carefully.
The female cultivator counted the price of the four-star treasures with her fingers and finally came up with a number that made her speechless. They were only from ordinary large realms and had long heard of the difficulties of the experts who came out of the starry sky to search for spirit jades. However, this was a necessary resource for cultivators above the Constellation Realm. Every cultivator who entered the starry sky would have such an experience.
Looking at it now, the price of a four-star treasure here was likely enough to make the experts of this domain toil bitterly for hundreds of years.
And to be able to take out a four-star treasure as a wager, it was likely that only the powerhouses of the top-level domains would be able to do so.
As the two of them spoke, the Sunshine Realm cultivator who had spoken first took out a treasure. He smiled and said, "Since the gambling is about to begin, this old man will throw out a brick to attract the jade. Everyone, please make yourselves at home."
As he spoke, an ancient inkstone appeared in his hand, and he directly tossed it into the pool.
Once the ancient inkstone entered the treasure pool, specks of starlight appeared on the inkstone's body. Shockingly, there were as many as four specks, causing many people to exclaim in surprise. That female cultivator also exclaimed in surprise, "Senior Apprentice Brother, it's another Four-Star treasure."
The male cultivator nodded. "The first to make a move will naturally not be too shabby. Powerful cultivators like them are always concerned about their reputation. Furthermore, this person should be a senior from the Yellow Dragon Realm. The Yellow Dragon Realm has always considered itself to be the center of the starry sky. It is also the most powerful realm under the control of the human race.
The female cultivator nodded her head thoughtfully.
Loud laughter rang out. "Fellow Daoist Feng is truly generous. You've already taken out a four-star treasure. This old man cannot compare to you. My pockets are too shabby, so I can only make a move."
As the laughter rang out, another treasure fell into the treasure pool. It shone with three-star light.
Following that, different treasures flew into the treasure pool from all directions. Starlight shone brightly for a moment. However, most of them were two-star treasures. There were very few three-star treasures. As for the four-star treasures, there was only one from the very beginning.
To most of the powerhouses who had come here, participating in this gamble was just to relieve their boredom. They didn't really have to win anything, so naturally, they wouldn't place too much bets. After all, at their level of cultivation, even if they won something, it wouldn't be of much use. On the contrary, if they lost, it would be a loss.
Of course, nothing was absolute. There were also those who came here with the mindset of winning. After all, if they really won, they would be able to obtain many benefits.
Everyone could see the characteristics of the treasures through the treasure pool. They could also clearly see which Divine Sea realm cultivator the treasure's owner had bet on.
For example, the Sunshine realm cultivator from the Yellow Dragon Realm had bet on a junior from the Yellow Dragon Realm. With his status, he couldn't possibly bet on someone else.
Gradually, the number of treasures that fell into the treasure pool decreased. Those who had the intention to participate had basically all joined in.
Until a certain moment, a seemingly inconspicuous bead flew into the treasure pool from somewhere in the crowd. In an instant, the dense flowing light fluctuated, and wherever the bead passed, all the treasures retreated one after another as if they had a mind of their own.
This strange phenomenon shocked everyone. They didn't know what was going on.
When he fixed his eyes on it, he was greatly shocked. It was because on that seemingly inconspicuous bead, one, two, three … a total of nine starlight dots were emitted!
Even the most knowledgeable powerhouses couldn't help but widen their eyes, not to mention the Divine Sea realm cultivators who had been watching the show. They immediately cried out in surprise.
In the huge treasure pool, there were tens of thousands of treasures. There were only a few four-star treasures. The sudden appearance of a nine-star treasure was a huge visual impact.
If the treasure pool was a pond, and the treasures in it were just some fishes and shrimps swimming in it, then the sudden appearance of the bead was like a big shark that had broken into the pond.
In the blink of an eye, two inconceivable thoughts appeared in everyone's minds.
What is this thing?
Who bet on it?
No one suspected that the Reincarnation Tree had made a mistake. As a Starry Sky treasure, it couldn't be wrong about the value of a treasure. Since it had marked nine stars, then it must be nine stars.
At the same time, the Reincarnation Tree's voice sounded in Yang Qing's ears. "Dragon Monarch, this bet is just for fun. Why do you have to do this?"
Yang Qing responded with a lazy posture, "I've been a little poor recently, and I'm in urgent need of a lot of materials. This is the only thing I can take out, so I have to bet it. Old Shu, can you lend me a few good things? I'll return them to you when I have more money. "
This was the real reason he had brought Lu Ye here. Of course, it was also the right time.
If it weren't for this, he wouldn't have been able to bring Lu Ye here even if he wanted to.
After being sealed for ten thousand years, he urgently needed a lot of resources to restore himself. If he only relied on himself to search the Starry Sky, he didn't know how much time he would have to waste. Here was a ready-made opportunity to make a fortune.
It could be said that with the nine star quality of the pearl, if Yang Qing won the bet, the treasures in the treasure pool would be reduced by a few percent in an instant. At that time, he could find a place to casually sell it, and he would have enough resources to recover.
Hearing this, the Reincarnation Tree fell silent.
Could a Dragon Race return what they borrowed? It could only listen to these words. Moreover, it had nothing to lend. Although there were many treasures in the treasure pool, strictly speaking, they didn't belong to it. Instead, they were shared by all the races in the Starry Sky and were only kept by it for safekeeping.
"Dragon Monarch, this old man asks you to reconsider. This thing is very important and cannot be lost!"
Yang Qing said impatiently, "I'll take care of my own things. Old man, don't worry about it!"
The Reincarnation Tree sighed. Of course it knew what Yang Qing was planning. If he won, he would definitely make a fortune. If he lost, with so many powerhouses present, who would have the ability to take this thing away from him? This Dragon Race would definitely act shamelessly when the time came.
At that time, as the symbol of fairness and justice, would it step forward to uphold justice?
If it stepped forward, it would only offend Yang Qing. If it didn't step forward, it would lose all its prestige. It could be said that the Dragon Race's precious treasure had given it a big problem.
But on second thought, even if Yang Qing lost, it seemed that no one had the right to take this bead away from the treasure pool. This was because if they wanted to take it away, they would have to stake something of equal value.
Now, apart from this bead, the greatest bargaining chip was a four-star treasure from the Yellow Dragon Realm. Even if there were hundreds of other treasures, they still wouldn't be able to match the value of this bead.
So Yang Qing had nothing to fear. Once the value of his bargaining chip reached a certain level, no one would be able to take it away.
Even if he bet this bead, even if he lost, the bead would only be left in the treasure pool.
The Reincarnation Tree could almost foresee what Yang Qing would do when the time came. He would definitely "borrow" the bead from it.
This guy was here to make a no-cost deal this time.
After seeing through Yang Qing's intentions, the Reincarnation Tree stopped trying to dissuade him.
On the other side, there were already some knowledgeable powerhouses who vaguely recognized the true appearance of the bead.
"It looks like the legendary dragon bead?"
In the starry sky, there were many treasures similar to this bead. However, only a dragon bead could be so valuable!
As soon as this thought appeared, many of the powerhouses present broke out in cold sweat.
To be able to take out a dragon bead as a wager, didn't that mean that he was a member of the Dragon Race? Or perhaps he had once slain a True Dragon?
No matter what, he wasn't someone they could afford to offend.
Although Yang Qing originally had an extraordinary bearing, which of the powerhouses here could be lacking in bearing? He was mixed in with the crowd and just stood there. However, as soon as the item that looked like a dragon bead was taken out, he immediately became the focus of everyone present. Many people around him all left without leaving a trace.
Just like the dragon bead in the treasure pool, the dragon bead was alone in the center of the pool. Many other treasures floated around it, like stars surrounding the moon.
No one dared to do anything. Just as the Reincarnation Tree had thought, when the value of a certain item reached a certain level, it would be absolutely safe. This was because no one had the ability to place a bet of equal value, so there was no possibility of it being taken away.
However, there was still one thing that made everyone curious. Which Divine Sea Realm cultivator was the owner of this treasure that looked like a dragon bead betting on?
Generally speaking, everyone would bet on a junior from their own realm. There were few exceptions. Those who came here were all prideful. They wouldn't go so far as to bet on a junior from another realm for the sake of winning or losing. They wouldn't boost the morale of others and undermine their own prestige.
After a careful look, the dragon bead revealed the information of the wager.
Realm of Nine Heavens, Lu Yiye!
The crowd was in an uproar.
