Chapter 360: Wanxiang’s Movement, Mysterious Ancient Artifact

Xiao Fan and the others continued to stroll through the market.

During this time, Nangong Lingxuan and Hu Rui bought some trinkets they liked.

They were all items of little use.

Of course, there were also good things in this market; Xiao Fan had just seen someone selling a Grade 4 Medicinal Pill.

However, the price was frighteningly high—it cost 300,000 Spirit Stones…

And the origin of this Medicinal Pill was likely not clean either.

Nangong Lingxuan and Hu Rui were both quite interested in this Medicinal Pill, but it was too expensive, so both women chose to give up.

They had robbed many people with Xiao Fan in the Secret Realm, and after coming out, each of them had a net worth of several hundred thousand Spirit Stones.

But 300,000 Spirit Stones was still too expensive.

And Xiao Fan himself didn't need it at all.

If he wanted a Grade 4 Medicinal Pill, he could completely find Kong Ping or Jiang Yushan.

Both would agree to refine it for him.

The group continued to stroll, with Xiao Fan accompanying the two women, while he didn't buy anything himself.

None of these items caught his eye.

The three passed by a stall selling ancient artifacts. The stall owner was a White-haired Elder, dressed very sloppily, and he wasn't greeting passersby, just lying in front of the stall…

In a place like this, selling ancient artifacts was the least guaranteed.

It was also the type of trade with the most scammers.

If you were an outsider, it was difficult to distinguish which era these items belonged to.

They could even take mundane items and pass them off as treasures of an Immortal to sell, and those who fell for it were numerous…

Naturally, the three of them had no intention of stopping.

They just glanced at it and paid no more attention.

However…

When passing by this stall, Wanxiang in Xiao Fan's mind suddenly jumped…

"Hmm?"

Xiao Fan was stunned. For a long time, Wanxiang had been very well-behaved and rarely reacted.

Why did it suddenly react now?

Seeing Xiao Fan stop, Hu Rui and Nangong Lingxuan were both curious.

"What's wrong?" Hu Rui asked.

Nangong Lingxuan also cast her gaze on Xiao Fan, though she didn't speak.

Xiao Fan didn't explain. The feeling Wanxiang transmitted in his mind was that it was very excited…

It was uncontrollably excited, as if it had seen some treasured item it desired.

Xiao Fan turned his gaze to the sloppy old man's stall, and Wanxiang in his mind jumped again.

Xiao Fan took a few steps forward.

The reaction given by Wanxiang in his mind became increasingly intense…

Hu Rui and Nangong Lingxuan, who were behind him, were curious and followed Xiao Fan.

Xiao Fan walked to the stall and leaned over to inspect it…

Wanxiang in his mind kept jumping… looking like it intended to rush out on its own.

The sloppy old man glanced at Xiao Fan, didn't make a sound, and had no intention of introducing his goods.

Xiao Fan didn't mind the old man; he used his Divine Thought to communicate with Wanxiang…

Telling it that if he touched these ancient artifacts, it should alert him if there was something it wanted.

Sure enough, after the Divine Thought was transmitted, Wanxiang became quiet and still…

Wanxiang was a divine object not inferior to the Enlightenment Seed; since it reacted now, it definitely proved that there was something extraordinary here.

Xiao Fan first touched an ancient dagger, but Wanxiang in his mind didn't react.

He then touched a small ancient tripod, and Wanxiang similarly didn't react…

Just like that, Xiao Fan began to touch the items on the stall one by one.

This confused Hu Rui and Nangong Lingxuan behind him.

However, seeing Xiao Fan's serious expression, both of them tacitly didn't interfere.

The sloppy old man was also a bit surprised; he stopped feigning sleep and stared at Xiao Fan.

He couldn't figure out what this guy was doing, touching every single item here without looking closely; what was he touching for?

Xiao Fan ignored his surroundings; there were hundreds of items in front of him.

Touching them one by one did take some time.

"Kid, what are you touching here?"

When Xiao Fan had touched half of them, the old man couldn't help but ask.

He had been setting up a stall here for years and had never seen someone like Xiao Fan.

Not buying, just touching…

Xiao Fan didn't pay attention and continued touching them on his own.

The old man was about to get angry, but just then, Xiao Fan's eyes suddenly lit up.

Found it.

What he was touching was a black compass, its exterior revealing an aura of decay…

It looked like it had been around for some years, so Xiao Fan picked up the compass to examine it.

Wanxiang in his mind was jumping violently and incessantly.

Xiao Fan examined the black compass for a few moments, then looked at the sloppy old man: "How much?"

The old man was stunned; he didn't expect this guy to actually take a fancy to this compass.

And at a glance at Xiao Fan's appearance, he recognized that this was an Inner Sect Disciple of the Jixian Sect.

He immediately raised the price on the spot.

"5,000 Spirit Stones, not a cent less."

Usually, he would sell this black compass for a few hundred Spirit Stones.

But since he had finally encountered a fat sheep, he naturally intended to slaughter it.

Hearing 5,000 Spirit Stones, Hu Rui and Nangong Lingxuan were both stunned; it was too expensive.

A dilapidated compass, with no discernible spiritual power from its appearance, yet he dared to sell it for so much!

"Fine!"

However, Xiao Fan agreed immediately.

The sloppy old man, Hu Rui, and Nangong Lingxuan were all stunned…

Was Xiao Fan crazy?

Buying this piece of junk for 5,000 Spirit Stones?

Xiao Fan didn't hesitate at all and threw out a Storage Pouch containing 5,000 Spirit Stones.

The sloppy old man took the Storage Pouch and checked it; it was indeed 5,000 Spirit Stones…

He was still a bit unsure and checked it several times to confirm he hadn't miscounted.

"Is it correct?"

"It's correct."

"Good." Xiao Fan nodded and put the black compass into his Storage Pouch.

"Let's go."

Xiao Fan turned back to look at Hu Rui and Nangong Lingxuan.

Under the astonished gaze of the sloppy old man, they left…
