This time, he went directly to the Teleportation Array that he and a few others had entered the black market through yesterday, and from there, he was teleported into the black market again.

After teleporting in, Lin Jing took out a conical hat from his Storage Bag and put it on, then headed towards the black market.

Upon reaching the black market, Lin Jing paid some Spirit Stones and then entered.

Walking past the streets into the heart of the black market, Lin Jing, from a distance, saw the stall of that Talisman Heir.

At the moment, there were two cultivators in front of the stall, seemingly engaged in a conversation with the stall owner.

Lin Jing did not go over immediately but waited for a moment.

A moment later, the two cultivators, still talking, left the Talisman Heir’s stall.

“That Third Rank Talisman is all fine and good, but simply unaffordable. To think it actually requires a Pure Elixir Medicine…”

“Indeed…”

Only then did Lin Jing approach.

Seeing Lin Jing arrive, the stall owner greeted him with the same smile as always:

“Fellow Daoist, what Talisman do you desire? I have everything you could need.”

Lin Jing looked at the stall, and the Extinguishing True Heaven Thunder Talisman was still there.

Lin Jing pointed at the Extinguishing True Heaven Thunder Talisman and asked:

“How much for this Talisman…?”

The stall owner, upon seeing Lin Jing inquire about nothing else but the only Third Rank Talisman on his stall, couldn’t help but shake his head.

“Fellow Daoist, I’m sorry, but this Talisman is not for sale…”

He thought that the person before him must have been attracted by the Third Rank Talisman and probably did not possess the Elixir Medicine he desired.

In these days, there had been too many people like him asking for the price. Even if not three or five hundred, there were at least a hundred or two.

Most would just shake their heads and walk away as soon as they heard his asking price.

Of course…

Some had tried to bargain with him, but the items they could offer were not what he wanted, so he had refused them all.

Hence, he now did not even want to explain anymore.

“I would like to buy this Talisman…” Lin Jing continued to speak.

The stall owner sighed with a sense of resignation and said:

“Sigh…

“Fellow Daoist, this talisman is not for sale, only for trade…

“I’m afraid the item I desire is something you don’t have…”

Lin Jing was not offended, and instead spoke directly:

“Fellow Daoist, you tell me first what you want. If I truly don’t have it, then I’ll turn around and leave, and I promise not to disturb you again…” “Alright then…!” The stall owner began reluctantly.

“Tell me, do you have a Pure Foundation Building Elixir?”

“Can this Talisman be traded for a Pure Foundation Building Elixir?” asked Lin Jing.

The stall owner shook his head and said:

“This Talisman is a Superior Third Rank Talisman; just one Pure Foundation Building Elixir is definitely not enough…”

“But I urgently need a Pure Foundation Building Elixir. Without it, I can’t trade with you…”

“I see…”

Lin Jing nodded, then continued:

“Not to hide it from you, as a matter of fact, I do have one…”

The stall owner was stunned for a second, then he suddenly raised his voice:

“Fellow Daoist, you… you have a Pure Foundation Building Elixir?” Clearly, Lin Jing’s answer was unexpected and had excited him. “Of course…”

Saying this, Lin Jing took out a Pure Jade Box from his Storage Bag and showed the stall owner a glimpse of it.

When the stall owner caught sight of the two words ‘Elixir Valley’ on the Pure Jade Box, he immediately became excited and lowered his voice to say: “Fellow Daoist, could it be… that you are an Elixir Valley Heir?”

Obviously fearful that others might overhear, after all, the Elixir Valley Heir was too famous, especially within this black market.

Lin Jing shook his head, saying,

“Fellow Daoist thinks too much, how could I possibly be the Elixir Valley Heir?”

Lin Jing found an excuse and chose not to reveal the identity of the Elixir Valley Heir.

Because this third-rank Talisman was too conspicuous, if revealed, it could possibly bring him many unnecessary troubles,

So, he chose to conceal his identity.

Afterward, Lin Jing continued,

“To be honest, this Elixir Medicine was bought by me when the Elixir Valley Heir was selling them in the past.”

“I had originally planned to keep it until someone urgently needed it and then sell it at a high price…”

“But seeing that Talisman of yours, I truly liked it, so I thought of taking it out to exchange with Fellow Daoist.”

The stall owner couldn’t help feeling regret, saying,

“So that’s how it is, ah, you have made me laugh, Fellow Daoist…”

“What a pity I arrived late and didn’t witness the Elixir Valley Heir selling Elixir Medicines; otherwise, I would definitely have bought a few.”

“Fellow Daoist, could you please tell me your price for that Talisman…” Lin Jing looked at the stall owner and asked.

“Of course…” the stall owner replied.

“For this third-rank Talisman, I plan to exchange one Pure Foundation

Building Elixir, one Pure Accumulation Pill, and one Pure Detoxification Elixir.”

“Although it seems like I’m asking for a bit much.. ‘

“But…’

“This Talisman is a third-rank Superior Attack Talisman, its power is extraordinary, it can even threaten a Golden Core Cultivator, exchanging those Pure Elixir Medicines for it is definitely not a loss…”

“I just don’t know if Fellow Daoist has these Elixir Medicines on you?”

After listening to the stall owner, Lin Jing fell silent for a while and did not immediately answer.

Seeing that Lin Jing did not immediately respond, the hope that had originally been in the stall owner’s heart sank.

But he really did not want to miss out on that Pure Foundation Building Elixir, so he asked again,

“Fellow Daoist, may I know how many Pure Elixir Medicines you have?”

Lin Jing directly said, “Not to conceal from Fellow Daoist, I have two of the

Elixir Medicines you need, only lacking one Pure Detoxification Elixir.”

“May I ask if other Elixir Medicines can replace the Pure Detoxification Elixir, Fellow Daoist?”

After hearing what Lin Jing said, the stall owner pondered for a moment, then said,

“If Fellow Daoist has other Second-Rank Pure Elixir Medicines, naturally it can be done, being both Pure, I could also use that Pure Elixir Medicine to exchange for the Pure Detoxification Elixir that I need, but if it’s other Elixir Medicines…”

At this point, the stall owner paused for a moment, then continued,

“Presumably Fellow Daoist also knows the gap between Pure Elixir Medicines and other Elixir Medicines, whether in terms of efficacy or value, is incomparable…”

“If there is one less Pure Elixir Medicine…

The stall owner here paused to reflect for a moment, then raised his head and said,

“Actually, it’s not impossible, but Fellow Daoist would need to pay a higher price…”

After the stall owner finished speaking, Lin Jing waved his hand, saying, “Fellow Daoist misunderstands…’

“Not to hide it from you, I am also an Alchemist, I was fortunate enough to have refined a Pure Elixir Medicine previously…”

“However, that was a Pure Gathering Yuan Pill.”

“Adding that Gathering Yuan Pill, I have one each of Pure Foundation Building,

Recovery, and Gathering Yuan Pills.”

“With these three Pure Elixir Medicines to exchange for your third-rank Talisman, how does that sound, Fellow Daoist?”

Upon hearing this, the stall owner was once again overjoyed and quickly said,

“Yes, of course it’s possible…”

Lin Jing glanced around and then said,

“It’s crowded and conspicuous here, how about we go to the Secret Trade Room to make the transaction?”

“Alright, just let me tidy up the stall first…” the stall owner replied.

Having said that, the stall owner started to pack up his things..
