Sleeping to Immortality: Getting Stronger One Nap at a Time!-Chapter 73 – One hammer eighty, exotic fire dragon source

Upon hearing this, Chen Changsheng glanced at the stone in front of him and said, "Only a thousand jin? Isn't that a bit too cheap?"
"This stone weighs at least four to five thousand jin!"
The steward sneered and said, "Theoretically, this stone should indeed cost four to five thousand jin of divine source."
"But considering how sincere you are, of course, I'll give you a discount."
Ignoring the steward's sarcastic tone, Chen Changsheng carefully examined the stone sign in front of him once more.
After some study, Chen Changsheng nodded and said, "The price is fair, but I only have three hundred jin of divine source on me. Can you give me some time?"
"I'll gather the money, and once I have enough, I'll come back to buy it. Is that okay?"
As soon as he said this, the steward's face turned dark.
"Dear customer, I'm afraid that solution won't work."
"Today, you have two choices: first, pay a thousand jin of divine source to buy this stone."
"Second, let us throw you out."
Sensing the tension, onlookers quickly gathered around, as watching drama unfold was always entertaining.
Chen Changsheng wasn't bothered by the steward's threat. He had encountered countless powerful beings, and these small fries couldn't scare him.
He wasn't being too forceful because he didn't want to cause trouble. After all, coming to buy someone's sign wasn't exactly honorable.
Just as Chen Changsheng was about to see if he could find something cheap to use as collateral, a voice rang out.
"I'll take it for a thousand jin of divine source."
Turning his head, he saw that it was the Saintess of the Zifu.
Seeing her arrival, the steward immediately put on a smile and said, "Wang Defa greets the Saintess."
"May I ask, is this gentleman your friend?"
"No."
Hearing this, the steward was put in a difficult position.
"Saintess, the Zifu Sacred Ground has always been on good terms with the Kunlun Sacred Ground."
"Why then, are you helping this troublemaker?"
Facing Wang Defa's questioning, the Saintess of the Zifu replied calmly, "The stone house is a place to sell stones. As long as the stones are here, they can be sold. Is there any reason I can't buy this stone?"
"Of course, since the Saintess wishes to buy it, eight hundred jin of divine source will do."
"Smack!"
The Saintess tossed a leather pouch to the steward, but Chen Changsheng was not pleased.
"Wait, what's going on here?"
"I never said I didn't want the stone. Isn't this a bit too much?"
Hearing Chen Changsheng's words, Wang Defa said coldly, "Kid, don't be ungrateful."
"If it weren't for the Saintess stepping in, you might not have walked out of this Kunlun Stone House today. You should thank the Saintess!"
While Wang Defa was admonishing Chen Changsheng, the Saintess of the Zifu walked over slowly.
"This stone is for you."
Everyone: ???
Chen Changsheng: ???
This unexpected turn of events left not only the onlookers but also Chen Changsheng himself bewildered.
"Miss Saintess, as far as I remember, we don't know each other."
"Why are you giving me this stone? Eight hundred jin of divine source is no small amount."
"If measured in spirit stones, that's eight million spirit stones!"
Faced with Chen Changsheng's confusion, the Saintess of the Zifu's bright eyes showed no hesitation.
"Eight hundred jin of divine source is nothing."
"If you are willing to join the Zifu Sacred Ground, I am willing to offer eight thousand jin of divine source."
"Hiss~"
Hearing this price, everyone couldn't help but gasp.
Eight thousand jin of divine source could buy the life of a late-stage Elemental Infant cultivator.
"Eight thousand jin of divine source is a bit low; that price isn't enough."
"I'll still pay eight hundred jin of divine source for your stone."
Saying this, Chen Changsheng directly took the Saintess's hand and placed a leather pouch in it.
"This is three hundred jin of divine source. I'll owe you the remaining five hundred jin for now, and I'll give it to you later."
With that, Chen Changsheng spat into his palm and pulled out a large iron hammer.
"Eighty!"
"Boom!"
With one strike, Chen Changsheng knocked off a corner of the four to five thousand jin stone.
Seeing Chen Changsheng's crude action, Wang Defa's face turned dark.
Because this behavior didn't seem like he was extracting divine source. Although divine source is hard, it can't withstand such force.
This guy was clearly here to ruin the sign. Once the Saintess of the Zifu left, Wang Defa thought, he'd deal with him.
With Chen Changsheng's strange chant, the Kunlun Stone House's sign was smashed to pieces.
After nine strikes, the once whole stone was reduced to the size of a washbasin.
By this point, everyone was convinced Chen Changsheng was here to cause trouble at the Kunlun Stone House.
But the Saintess of the Zifu's gaze remained unchanged.
She had seen this man at the teleportation array.
At that time, everyone was amazed by her phenomenon, except for him.
To be precise, he didn't show any amazed expression.
Such an expression usually indicated one of two things: either he was stronger than her, or he had seen someone stronger.
In either case, this person was worth befriending.
Eight hundred jin of divine source was not expensive at all.
...
After nine strikes, Chen Changsheng used all his strength and delivered the final blow.
"Eighty!"
As the chant fell, a strange red light emerged from the stone.
Some gamblers who frequented the stone house shouted, "It's a win!"
Seeing that Chen Changsheng had indeed extracted divine source, not only was Wang Defa dumbfounded, but even the Saintess of the Zifu was a bit surprised.
The stones in the stone house were all selected by masters, and the chances of extracting divine source from them were very low.
This person actually managed to extract divine source from a piece of waste stone, indicating he was no ordinary person.
Breaking open the stone skin, Chen Changsheng rummaged through and finally pulled out two pieces of fiery red variant divine source.
One was as big as a man's fist, and the other was the size of a bird's egg.
Weighing them in his hand, Chen Changsheng turned to the Saintess of the Zifu and said, "I'm not sure about the price of variant divine source. Since the Zifu Sacred Ground also has a stone house, why don't you, Saintess, appraise it?"
Hearing this, the Saintess of the Zifu glanced at the variant divine source in Chen Changsheng's hand and said, "The Kunlun Sacred Ground once brought back a mountain-sized mine from the Sacred Ruins."
"From it, they extracted a divine source that was entirely red and shaped like a fire dragon, hence this type of variant divine source was named Fire Dragon Source."
"One jin of Fire Dragon Source is worth a hundred jin of ordinary divine source."
After hearing the price given by the Saintess of the Zifu, Chen Changsheng nodded and tossed the bird egg-sized Fire Dragon Source to her.
Divine source is extremely dense, and even such a small piece weighed five to six jin.
Converted, this piece was just enough to settle the debt.
