Chapter 1 The Pale Blue Screen

The price of the Yan Yang Holy Scripture was also exceptionally eye-catching on the pale blue translucent display screen.

"Damn it, what did the person selling the Yan Yang Holy Scripture drink growing up?" Shi Feng couldn't help but curse after seeing the price.

In fact, it wasn't just Shi Feng who would curse after seeing this price; others would too. They might even add their hands and feet to the mix.

At a price of one thousand gold, no one could stop this person.

Shi Feng immediately looked at the seller's name.

"SoHandsomeToBeKilled."

After seeing this bizarre ID name, Shi Feng could only look up in admiration. Just how narcissistic was this person?

He finally understood why the Yan Yang Holy Scripture was priced so high.

However, now that he had seen the Yan Yang Holy Scripture, he couldn't give up so easily. So, he sent a communication request to the player named SoHandsomeToBeKilled. However, Shi Feng hid his own name, so SoHandsomeToBeKilled couldn't know who he was.

After waiting for more than ten seconds, the person answered.

"Who are you? What do you want from me, bro? Don't tell me you want me to carry you. If you're a pretty girl, I might consider carrying you," SoHandsomeToBeKilled's voice was full of narcissistic flavor and a sense of frivolousness.

Shi Feng was speechless.

A girl?

Carry you?

What kind of person was this?

How could someone like this get the Yan Yang Holy Scripture? Was the world so chaotic?

"Hey, at least say something. Are you dead? Don't tell me you're a transvestite. I'm not into that," SoHandsomeToBeKilled suddenly became nervous.

"Hello, I saw you selling the Yan Yang Holy Scripture at the auction house. I'm very interested in it. I was wondering if you could sell it to me for a lower price," Shi Feng decided to ask.

"So you want to buy that thing, okay!" SoHandsomeToBeKilled smiled knowingly. "I'll lower the price a bit. How about nine hundred gold? This is a fair price, honest and trustworthy, and I'm the only one selling it."

Hearing SoHandsomeToBeKilled's asking price, Shi Feng just smiled slightly and offered a price very calmly, "20 silver coins."

He didn't believe that SoHandsomeToBeKilled knew the true value of the Yan Yang Holy Scripture.

The Yan Yang Holy Scripture only dropped from humanoid creatures using fire magic above level 10, but the drop rate was a bit low, so the selling price was very high. Usually, people didn't sell it, but it wasn't worth such a sky-high price of one thousand gold. One thousand gold could completely buy an epic item. Who would buy the Yan Yang Holy Scripture?

"Hey, brother, I have to say, you're not being sincere enough. You contacted me first, and you're offering such a price. Do you know where I hang out?" SoHandsomeToBeKilled smiled brightly and said proudly, "Have you heard of Dark Star? It's a top-tier third-rate guild in White River City. Just that name alone should be worth a hundred gold, right?"

The Dark Star Guild was indeed an extremely powerful guild in White River City.

But for Shi Feng, so what?

"1 gold coin. If you don't want to sell it, forget it." Shi Feng roughly understood that SoHandsomeToBeKilled was treating him like a sucker and thought that he really needed the Yan Yang Holy Scripture, so he dared to ask for such a high price. Unfortunately, SoHandsomeToBeKilled was wrong.

"Think carefully. I'm the only one in White River City who has this Yan Yang Holy Scripture. I see you're an honest person, so I'll give you a bargain price: 10 gold plus 100,000 credits. If you still don't want it, I'll have to look for someone else," SoHandsomeToBeKilled said confidently.

"Goodbye!" Shi Feng hung up the communication without hesitation.

Seeing Shi Feng hang up the communication, SoHandsomeToBeKilled immediately became anxious. He didn't expect Shi Feng to be so decisive. He should have at least bargained. Now that the 1 gold coin that was within reach was gone, his heart was bleeding. But he couldn't bring himself to contact Shi Feng again.

"Hmph, I don't believe you won't want this Yan Yang Holy Scripture," SoHandsomeToBeKilled snorted coldly.

Although he didn't know what the Yan Yang Holy Scripture was used for, based on its imposing and domineering name, it was definitely not ordinary. SoHandsomeToBeKilled was very sure that Shi Feng knew the value of this thing, but he didn't want to pay too much, so he retreated to advance, which made SoHandsomeToBeKilled even more certain that the value of the Yan Yang Holy Scripture was very high, far more than just 1000 gold.

So, SoHandsomeToBeKilled went to the auction house again and raised the price of the Yan Yang Holy Scripture from 1000 gold to 10,000 gold to see if Shi Feng would buy it or beg him.

But when SoHandsomeToBeKilled looked at the auction house again, he found that there was no longer just one Yan Yang Holy Scripture, but five. In addition to his one priced at 10,000 gold, the other four were priced at 15 silver coins.

The most unbelievable thing was that the number of Yan Yang Holy Scriptures was still increasing, and in the blink of an eye, it reached 10.

"What the hell is going on?" SoHandsomeToBeKilled's eyes widened, thinking he was dreaming. How could there be so many of these domineering Yan Yang Holy Scriptures, like cabbages?

As these Yan Yang Holy Scriptures increased, people bought them one by one.

A total of thirty-two Yan Yang Holy Scriptures were sold at the auction house, thirty of which were bought by Shi Feng. Only SoHandsomeToBeKilled's and one priced at 20 silver coins were unwanted.

SoHandsomeToBeKilled seemed to suddenly think of something and quickly opened the official website's White River City trading section.

Sure enough, there was an anonymous post buying Yan Yang Holy Scriptures, with a single purchase price of 14 silver coins. They would even accept it if it was sold at the auction house for 15 silver coins.

This method of purchasing items was very common in virtual games. After all, many players didn't put things up for sale at the auction house but kept them in their hands. People like SoHandsomeToBeKilled, who took some items of unknown value to sell at the auction house, were just a minority.

So it also reminded Shi Feng that there should be many people who have Yan Yang Holy Scriptures in their hands right now.

"Ah, my 1 gold coin!" SoHandsomeToBeKilled wanted to cry at this moment. He originally thought the Yan Yang Holy Scripture was comparable to an epic item, but after seeing so many people had it, SoHandsomeToBeKilled realized that if he had sold it for 1 gold at that time, he would have made a huge profit.

On the other side, Shi Feng was very satisfied to have bought thirty Yan Yang Holy Scriptures. If he hadn't seen the Yan Yang Holy Scripture at the auction house, he would have forgotten about its existence.

"Thirty should be enough." Shi Feng looked at the thirty Yan Yang Holy Scriptures lying in his backpack, very satisfied.

Although it cost him 4 gold and 50 silver, shrinking his assets a bit, it was still devaluing to just keep the gold coins, so it was better to turn them into more gold coins.

That's why Shi Feng spent so much money to buy the Yan Yang Holy Scriptures.

In his previous life, many players had the Yan Yang Holy Scripture, but they didn't know its use, so they were sold cheaply. But there was a ranger player who desperately bought the Yan Yang Holy Scripture, and even when the Yan Yang Holy Scripture rose to 1 gold coin each, he still bought them without hesitation, which made many people suspicious.

So many players began to explore what the Yan Yang Holy Scripture was used for.

In an accidental encounter, a team of players saw a ranger grinding Bosses and elites in the level 25 Yan Shen (Flame God) Cave and were immediately amazed. But they later learned that the reason why this ranger was able to grind the Bosses and elites in the Yan Shen Cave was because of the Yan Yang Holy Scripture.

After that, the secret was exposed, causing the price of the Yan Yang Holy Scripture to rise all the way, eventually reaching a high price of 3 gold coins, and people were still buying it.

Now that Shi Feng could buy one for only 15 silver coins, it could be said that he had made a huge profit.

Anyway, Hei Zi and the others would still take a long time to return to White River City, and Shi Feng had nothing to do, so he might as well go to the Yan Shen Cave to grind Bosses. After all, his strength was too weak, and he couldn't do the current epic-level quest Dark Descent and the unique quest Demon's Heart, and many important quests in White River City required a team. This was the tragedy of solo players, so grinding Bosses was now the best choice.

The most important thing was that the Yan Shen Cave was a good place to produce forging design drawings. It was because of these forging design drawings that the ranger made a lot of money, earning a total of more than six hundred gold in amazing wealth, envying countless players.

Then Shi Feng rushed to the teleportation gate and paid 24 silver coins for the teleportation fee to reach Crimson Fortress, the teleportation point closest to the Yan Shen Cave.
