Chapter 191: The Golden Flower of the Stone
Translator: _Dark_Angel_ Editor: Kurisu
Ling Han broke the rock apart in a few moves, and the golden light became stronger and stronger, before finally becoming a ball of resplendent light, so bright that it was not possible to open one's eyes to look at it.
But the golden light very quickly paled and darkened, and in Ling Han's hand, there shockingly appeared a golden plant. It looked like a chrysanthemum; the whole flower was sparkling and translucent, possessing an indescribable beauty to it.
"Yi!"
"Ah!"
"Oh!"
Everyone was exclaiming in shock. There was actually such a strange object growing inside a rock. No matter what it was, it was really inconceivable.
"Return this flower to me!" the stall keeper instantly shouted, his eyes red. Even if he had no idea what it was, he would have been able to guess that a plant growing within a rock was definitely an extraordinary treasure and not something that can be bought with a mere 2000 silver coins.
He had finally understood by now. Ling Han had only pretended to be scared previously, but in fact, he had already had his eye fixed on this rock.
This detestable brat!
Ling Han only pretended he had not heard anything, and asked Hu Niu, "Niu Niu, do you know what this is?"
Hu Niu sniffed it a few times, and instantly, put on a disinterested expression, and said, "It's not delicious!"
Ling Han laughed loudly, and said, "This is called the Golden Flower of the Stone. It is formed through gathering Spiritual Qi from its surroundings and can only grow within this kind of Stone of Nine Poisons. It has the effect of curing poison. Only a tiny little petal would be enough to cure many of the poisons of this world. The stem is even more outstanding, as it can cure any poison."
"Brother, this Golden Flower of the Stone is probably worth a lot, right?" one of the spectators asked.
"Of course." Ling Han nodded. "It is unavoidable for martial artists to enter into areas that are filled with powerful poison to adventure, and merely placing a single petal of the Golden Flower of the Stone in one's mouth would allow one to resist many poisons. Tell me, how much do you think it's worth?"
"A petal is worth 10,000 silver coins?" someone asked, his voice shaking.
"10,000 coins?" Ling Han shook his head with a smile, and said, "The rewards would naturally be overwhelmingly large if one actually had to enter such a dangerous location on an adventure. It would be nothing strange to spend several million, or even several dozen million just to prepare for such a journey. As a result, a single petal of this flower would be worth 100,000 coins, at the very least."
There was a simultaneous sharp intake of breath from all around them. A price of at least 100,000 coins... that was really too terrifying, because this Golden Flower of the Stone had exactly how many petals? At the very least, there were a few hundred petals there... then that would be worth about a few dozen million!
Moreover, the stem could apparently cure any conceivable poison, so it was naturally worth even more money.
"Hahahaha, brat, give me back my Golden Flower of the Stone!" The stall keeper was also listening to Ling Han's explanation just now, and now that he knew the astronomical value of this golden flower, he was both shocked and delighted. He was secretly laughing at Ling Han for being an idiot, to actually reveal the existence of such a treasure in the public, and was also secretly delighted inside his heart. He was really going to make a huge amount of money this time round.
