Global Lords: Me and My Calabash Kiddos-Chapter 290 - 141: Origin of the Omen Stone, Star Shining Bright Stone

"What does the Omen Stone do?"

Yi Tian asked following the Bright Island Steward's words.

He definitely knows.

"It's a common item of the abyss. It doesn't solely belong to the Demon Wolf Abyss." The Bright Island Steward didn't hide the truth.

"Our Great Priest of Light says that outside the Dagu Realm, there might be Venerable-level powerhouses, or even stronger!"

Pausing for a moment, the Bright Island Steward continued.

This shocked Yi Tian considerably. The Omen Stone has such a significant origin.

It's a supreme treasure shared by the abyss, not just owned by the Demon Wolf Abyss.

No wonder it can open the mist formed by the Celestial Dao Rules.

If the Demon Wolf Abyss can't handle it, they might ally with other abysses.

However, as a threat to himself, Yi Tian wouldn't abandon the Omen Stone for anything.

Enemies are everywhere, and the mist is a barrier to protect himself.

Yi Tian is not afraid of any challenge, even if it's SSS-level.

"The Demon Refining Mirror is gone; I sold it to other lords. There's only one Spirit Demon Bead left. If you want it, we can talk."

Yi Tian heard from Ta Fang that the Spirit Demon Bead was once called the Bright Bead, a supreme treasure of Bright Island. Later, it was snatched by Demon Wolf Abyss and refined into the Spirit Demon Bead.

To Bright Island, this is a humiliation!

Bright Island feared the union of all abysses against them, but not just the Demon Wolf Abyss alone.

They have a deity of their faith, and the deity is very close to them.

"The Demon Refining Mirror is useless to us. But I'm curious about how you managed to sell such a priceless treasure." The Bright Island Steward said.

"Among lords, there are elements of the Demon Race, and quite a few powerful demon cultivators. As long as I am offered enough benefits, I'll sell it. Fortunately, you contacted me early; many demon cultivators are interested in my Spirit Demon Bead, but I'm not satisfied with their prices." Yi Tian said with innuendo.

"Rest assured! I assure you Bright Island is a righteous force, fair and honest. Whatever number of Beast Cores you need, just name it. As long as the Island Lord agrees, I'll trade with you immediately."

For such a big deal, the Bright Island Steward couldn't make a direct decision and had to consult the Island Lord.

This Spirit Demon Bead — they must acquire it.

Bright Island also feared Yi Tian making too many enemies, collapsing, and losing the "Bright Bead" opportunity.

"I don't want Beast Cores. I want top-level stone. I wonder if you can provide stone worth the value of the Spirit Demon Bead. I also want Spirit-level stone." 𝐟𝕣𝕖𝐞𝐰𝕖𝚋𝐧𝗼𝚟𝐞𝕝.𝗰𝐨𝐦

Yi Tian said to the Bright Island Steward.

Compared to the ever-fluctuating prices of Beast Cores, Yi Tian preferred top-level stone that only appreciates and never decreases in price.

Moreover, Yi Tian would eventually need top-level stone, and the more, the better.

It could also be used as a resource reserve.

"Easily done, easily done. Although our Bright Stones are scarce, some have been stored for millennia. At the very heart of our Bright Stone Mine is a kind of Star Shining Bright Stone, belonging to the Spirit-level stone category."

The Bright Island Steward felt a surge of joy; after all, if there was an abundance of anything on Bright Island, it was Bright Stones.

The sheer number of massive mines was in the hundreds.

Other large, medium, small and minuscule mines, much like the lords themselves, were countless.

Seventy percent of Bright Island's external trade was in Bright Stones.

The Bright Island Steward had said the Bright Stone is top of the top, and not an exaggeration. The birth of Star Shining Bright Stone from the center of the Bright Stone proves that.

As the saying goes, scarcity makes value, but the Bright Stone was so plentiful that its price was never high and couldn't even compare with other top-level stones.

If the Bright Island Steward could complete this transaction with Yi Tian using Bright Stones, it would be a great achievement.

As a lord, Yi Tian had limited understanding of these matters. He knew top-level stones were valuable.

Both parties felt they were making a significant profit, setting the stage for long-term trade.

"Thirty million top-level stones, one hundred thousand Spirit-level stones."

Yi Tian tried stating his price.

Thirty million top-level stones were almost five times the value of a Venerable Treasure Chest.

Plus, Yi Tian wasn't even sure about the price of Spirit-level stones.

Yi Tian's bottom line was fifteen million top-level stones.

He might even let it go, as long as he earned the equivalent of two Venerable Treasure Chests in value.

"The price seems a bit high! Let me check with the Island Lord."

The Bright Island Steward thought of agreeing on the spot but, after a second thought, realized that since Yi Tian started with this price, there was room to negotiate.

For Bright Island's interests, the Bright Island Steward obviously had to bargain with Yi Tian.

"Hey brother, do you have some time?"

At the same time, Ta Fang was chatting with Yi Tian.

"Uh, I'm trading Bright Stones with Bright Island, preparing to sell them the Spirit Demon Bead, which is useless to me." During the "Bright Island Steward reporting to the Island Lord" period, Yi Tian casually replied to Ta Fang.

"Bright Stones? The quality of Bright Stones is indeed pretty good. But in recent years, Bright Island has exported a massive amount of Bright Stones to the Ten Kingdoms Region. Now, Bright Stones don't have the appeal other top-level stones do. Although I haven't been to Bright Island, I have heard that Bright Stones are everywhere on Bright Island; the houses where slaves live are all made of Bright Stone. Bright Island is so affluent; everyone is dressed in top-grade silk and fine clothing, and it's all due to selling Bright Stones."

Ta Fang reminded Yi Tian.

Everywhere?

The slaves live in Bright Stone houses?

In other words, for Bright Island, Bright Stones are just profit-making commodities and not precious treasures.

This Bright Island Steward tricked him!

Yi Tian decided then and there, thirty million, and he'd hold firm.

Yi Tian was initially predisposed to think that top-level stones were synonymous with scarcity and value.

Unexpectedly, the Indigenous People had such a peculiar place.

This is simply living on a Gold Mountain.

"Thanks for the reminder, Brother Ta Fang. So, what did you want from me?" Yi Tian expressed his gratitude and then asked Ta Fang.

"Brother, we have already helped you sell all your items. We've converted everything into High-Level Wood and Top-grade Wood. If you have some time, we can trade immediately." Ta Fang said to Yi Tian.
