I, the Destined Villain, Start by Controlling the Saint

Ye Tian’s treasure hunt is cruel!Ye Tian ran towards the Treasure Pavilion with a joyful expression, thinking to himself, ”Could it be that Eternal Immortal City is truly my blessed land?”

Upon arriving at the Treasure Pavilion, Ye Tian walked in and said to the clerk inside, ”I heard that you have an eighth-grade Zhongyuan Immortal Pill for sale today?”

The clerk, seeing that Ye Tian was a Human Immortal at the Late Stage, presumably having received the news, immediately smiled and said, ”That is indeed the case.”

”However, because there are too many Fellow Daoists queuing to purchase, you might have to wait for some time.”

”How long do I have to wait?” Ye Tian asked.

”If it’s quick, probably half a day. After all, the Medicinal Pill effect of this Zhongyuan Immortal Pill is extraordinary, and it’s not expensive, so many Fellow Daoists are buying it,” the clerk said.

”We also have many other items here. Recently, many Immortal Artifacts, formation diagrams, and Cultivation Techniques have been put on display. Does Fellow Daoist need to take a look?”

Ye Tian then asked about the price of the Zhongyuan Immortal Pill, and after hearing the answer, he calculated the Immortal Stones in his pocket.

He only needed one-tenth of his Salary to buy twenty Immortal Pills, which was completely enough for Undergoing Tribulation.

The remaining Immortal Stones could be used to prepare for cultivation in the Earth Immortal realm. Thinking that there was still a surplus and that waiting in line would take time, Ye Tian began to browse around the Treasure Pavilion.

The Treasure Pavilion was not large. From the outside, it was about ten li long and eight li wide. For an Immortal realm Cultivator, this distance could be covered in a single step.

However, it contained hidden mysteries.

All kinds of Immortal Artifacts, divine materials, divine weapons, sharp blades, and various rare Yao Beasts were all available.

Ye Tian even saw various dilapidated and incomplete Immortal Artifacts and Incomplete Manuals of scriptures inside.

Originally, he only intended to casually browse and not linger, but when he walked in front of a broken blade, the fragment of the broken blade in his Sea of Consciousness hummed.

That broken blade fragment was the Magic Treasure Ye Tian used to win when he confronted Wang Teng.

Its grade was unknown, but it was infinitely profound and unstoppable.

After all, even a broken fragment had such power; if it were complete, its power would be even stronger.

He had not thought about finding the original item, but such a supreme treasure was rare and hard to come by. Having even one fragment was already a great fortune.

Now, with the broken blade fragment humming, was there news of the original item?

Eternal Immortal City is definitely my, Ye Tian’s, city of Luck!

Ye Tian suppressed the abnormal movement of the fragment in his Sea of Consciousness, fearing that the fragment’s fluctuations would cause the main body to emit an anomaly.

If the supreme treasure were discovered, he would definitely not be able to obtain it.

After searching for a long time, Ye Tian finally found the source of the fragment’s anomaly in a chaotic pile of old, broken weapons.

His eyes narrowed, and his gaze fell on a broken long blade. He was ecstatic in his heart; he had used this nameless fragment countless times, and its outline was incredibly clear to him.

And this broken long blade in front of him, although only half of it remained, its broken section perfectly matched the broken blade in his hand.

The damage to the long blade had made it lose its spirituality, and the erosion of time had covered it in dust and rust, with black spots on its yellowish-brown surface, like a piece of scrap iron. But in Ye Tian’s eyes, it was a supreme treasure!

He walked over calmly, his eyes not at all concerned with the half-broken long blade, but instead picking and choosing among the nearby items.

Immediately, a clerk came up and asked, ”Esteemed guest, what would you like to buy?”

Ye Tian simply said indifferently, ”Where do you dig up all these things? You wouldn’t just casually find some scrap and pass it off as treasure fragments, would you?”

He pointed to the pile of ruins in front of him, his gaze not drifting towards the broken blade at all, fearing that others would see his intention.

The clerk was stunned for a moment, then immediately began to introduce it to him.

”Hehe, esteemed guest, you may not know, but we buy these things from Cultivators. Many Cultivators always obtain some old and broken items when they enter Secret Realms. They don’t know their use and are afraid they are useless.”

”But since they were obtained from a Secret Realm, they are mostly treasures, just without the correct method to use them.”

”Among these old items, treasures might be found, but if not, they would be stuck in their hands. After weighing the pros and cons, our Treasure Pavilion purchases old treasures from them.”

Ye Tian understood.

”So you cooperate, acquiring these old items at a relatively low price, which is considered a shared risk between both parties.”

The clerk replied, ”That’s the idea. After all, for ordinary Cultivators, holding onto such an old item of unknown use is not as good as selling it directly and exchanging it for some Immortal Stones to buy Medicinal Pills for cultivation.”

Ye Tian also understood that instead of holding onto the uncertain probability of finding a treasure, it was better to exchange it for Immortal Stones to buy Medicinal Pills. Only what was in hand was truly one’s own.

”How much for this pile?” Ye Tian asked, pointing to the old items in front of him.

Many Cultivators passing by cast their gaze on the broken blade, but only glanced at it a few times, deciding it had no potential before moving on.

Ye Tian, however, was very composed. Even when the broken blade was being examined by several people, he did not look at it, as if it were just a piece of trash.

”Esteemed guest, we sell these by the piece, and the price of each piece is fixed.”

”Is that so?” Ye Tian pretended to ponder, then he casually picked a few items.

During this process, he also asked the clerk if he could get a discount if he bought more items.

It was a very normal conversational tone; no one could tell that he already had a plan.

”No, we can’t make that decision,” the clerk shook his head.

”I was just saying,” he said with a smile, picking casually without careful observation.

Near Ye Tian, there were also several Cultivators looking for bargains, using various Magic Treasures to conduct various appraisals.

Those Cultivators, seeing Ye Tian so casual, couldn’t help but disdainfully say:

”Are you really choosing things? Why do I feel like you’re just picking randomly.”

”I don’t know, maybe he thinks he’s lucky and can just casually find a treasure.”

”Another one fantasizing about getting rich by luck.”

Several Cultivators whispered among themselves.

Ye Tian was unmoved, his heart already triumphant. You are the ones with eyes but no sight. Just now, several people looked at that broken blade, and not a single one could discover its special qualities.

He casually flipped through, first taking a few random items, then walked to the broken blade, picked it up and put it away, and then continued to pick a few more items.

This way, no one would know which item he truly valued; people would only think he was picking randomly.

After doing all this, he still lingered there for a while, as if caught in a dilemma.

After another moment, he stopped and took the selected items to the checkout.

The clerk also thought he was picking randomly, without any skill. When Ye Tian paid the Immortal Stones, the clerk politely said:

”Just so you know, if you find any treasures that you don’t need, you can sell them to our Treasure Pavilion. Our Treasure Pavilion will buy them back.”

”Hmm, I hope to find treasures that will allow me to make a big profit,” Ye Tian nodded and said.

Afterward, Ye Tian took the pile of scrap metal and continued to browse. Since he could find the first item, perhaps he could find another treasure?

...

Xiao Fan and Luo Ruyan visited all the places in Eternal Immortal City that sold women’s clothing.

Xiao Fan, who was not short of Immortal Stones, bought beautiful Immortal Gowns whenever he saw them. Luo Ruyan beamed with joy, for even women who had achieved Immortal Ascension still pursued beauty.

However, with Xiao Fan’s discerning eye, few Immortal Gowns could catch his Dharma Eye. After visiting over a dozen shops, he only bought a few dozen Immortal Gowns.

How could this last for days of fun!

Having no other option, Xiao Fan could only take Luo Ruyan to the Treasure Pavilion to see if he could buy a thousand or eight hundred pieces.

But just as Xiao Fan arrived at the entrance of the Treasure Pavilion, the System’s voice rang out.

”Ding, the Villain System is at your service. A Child of Destiny is active eight hundred meters ahead. Please accelerate the crushing, do not let him live too comfortably.”

”It is suggested to strip off his underpants, let him understand what it means to be homeless, what it means to be cruel!”

Damn, System, you are too malicious and too cruel!
