Humans cover the sky, fishing for all the heavens.

Shi Feng moved quickly, cutting open the hands, arms, abdomen, and head of the nine-aperture stone man, and white stone powder fell down in a flurry.

The nine-aperture stone man grew from a foot long to the size of a fist, but it contained nothing—neither divine light nor a strange fragrance.

The expectant look in the eyes of the onlookers turned into disappointment.

"It seems this nine-aperture stone figure is empty."

"As expected, making money from a top-tier stone garden isn't that easy. We've suffered a huge loss this time."

"Is this all the luck you have? You dare to even look at the Origin Technique?"

Some of the old men who had previously coveted the elixir of immortality were now gloating:

"Young man, you're still too young. The jade gambling industry is very complex, and you can't handle it."

"It seems the newcomer bonus period is over. That elixir of immortality probably exhausted your luck."

"Who said they can't ship the goods?"

Shi Feng opened his palm; the stone was still about half the size of his palm. "There might be a peerless divine artifact here."

"Really? I don't believe it."

The elderly people present shook their heads, "Divine objects are not so easy to come by."

Shi Feng raised an eyebrow: "How about we make a bet? I've heard that there's a custom of betting in stone workshops all over the Holy City. Shall we bet on the source?"

"No gambling."

These old men flatly refused. They had spent most of their lives in the Holy City and were very shrewd. They felt that Shi Feng was a man of some kind of luck and a bit of an evil spirit, and it was impossible for him to gamble.

"I'll bet!"

Wu Ziming stepped out and tossed five thousand catties of Yuan onto the ground, saying, "I bet there's nothing here!"

He was brutally defeated by Shi Feng and was filled with hatred. However, since he was completely outmatched in strength and background, he had no way to retaliate against Shi Feng. Now that he had the chance to see Shi Feng make a fool of himself, he couldn't stand it and had to vent his anger.

This may be his only chance in this lifetime.

Shi Feng smiled slightly when he saw the boy delivering the treasure. "Anyone else? I can afford to gamble this much. Feel free to raise the stakes."

The crowd on the outskirts was eager to try their luck. To put it bluntly, since they were all gambling on stones in the Holy City, they were bound to have a gambling spirit.

"I'll participate."

"I'll participate too!"

Soon, several thousand catties of the source material were collected, eventually totaling ten thousand catties.

Shi Feng rubbed the stone in his hand with satisfaction. With a gentle rub, the entire stone crumbled, and a dark golden, cocoon-like substance fell out.

While everyone was still guessing what it was, the cocoon broke open, and a terrifying killing intent emanated from it, making everyone turn pale.

The sword light shot into the sky, instantly shattering the seal formed by the combined efforts of the Azure Dragon King, the old Taoist nun, and Jiang Yifei, the protector.

A small, one-inch-long black sword hovered in the air, emitting a clear, ringing sound.

"This is a killing sword!"

Some exclaimed, "This is not only divine material, but also an interweaving of Tao and reason."

Some lamented, "It seems this nine-aperture stone figure had the potential to be spiritually connected, but unfortunately it was born too early and didn't even achieve the status of a holy spirit, only giving birth to a killing sword."

"This appears to be dragon-patterned black gold, the same material as the dragon-patterned black gold cauldron from the Yao Guang Holy Land!"

"The accompanying sacred objects are all black gold with dragon patterns. This nine-aperture stone man is extraordinary. If it reaches the Great Perfection stage, it might be able to compete with the Great Emperor."

The all-knowing people of the Underworld quickly uncovered the true nature of the Nine-Aperture Stone Man, leaving them both shocked and regretful.

Those who participated in the betting were horrified; all those resources had been lost!

Wu Ziming was almost spitting blood. Half of the 10,000 jin of ore belonged to him, almost his entire fortune, which he had gambled away in a moment of impulsiveness and lost everything.

Shi Feng leisurely put away these sources, while the Azure Dragon King had already begun to subdue the dragon-patterned black gold sword.

The nine-aperture stone man was cut open, and his resentment was extremely strong, all of which was concentrated in this divine sword. The resentment must be dispersed, otherwise it will become a vicious weapon.

Shi Feng didn't need to make a move; the three powerful figures were enough to disperse the resentment. Yao Yuekong, Jiang Yifei, Yao Xi, and some others were all sending telepathic messages to Shi Feng, hoping that he would sell the divine material to them.

Shi Feng remained unmoved. After the resentment of the dragon-patterned black gold sword was dissipated, he reached out and took it, lightly flicking the spine of the sword with his finger.

"Although it's too small to be forged into a weapon, every little bit counts. When I find other immortal metals in the future, I can use them to forge weapons for me."

Everyone present felt a sense of regret. They desperately wanted the divine sword, but Shi Feng had a powerful background and could not be threatened by it.

An elderly man, envious, asked: "Are you still cutting stones?"

The old Taoist nun from Dao Yi Holy Land watched him warily. Under the watchful eyes of everyone, she couldn't possibly stop Shi Feng from cutting the stone, otherwise she would become a laughing stock, and people would say that Dao Yi Holy Land couldn't afford to play along, and their business would suffer.

But seeing Shi Feng cut out two top-tier divine items in a row, she felt really heartbroken. A thought popped into her mind: Could it be that our drop rate is actually very high?

Good things are everywhere?

She wasn't alone in sharing this thought. The onlookers stared at the strange rocks with flickering eyes, considering whether they should pool their money to buy one, open it up, and then sell it and split the profits.

"I'm not going to drive anymore, I'm a little tired, I'll rest for a bit."

Shi Feng said, "I'm not in the game today. I'll try again tomorrow. I need to rest."

He ignored everyone's attempts to persuade him to stay and left the stone archway of the Dao Yi Holy Land.

After he left, many people were eager to try their luck, following Shi Feng's example, and attempted to find a rare stone that they were destined to meet in the Heavenly Stone Garden of Dao Yi Holy Land.

Those who were short of money pooled their resources to buy it, but ended up losing everything. The one with the best luck only managed to get twenty catties of the source, which was not even a fraction of the exorbitant purchase price.

The group of old men gloated: "If the top-grade stone garden were really that easy to sell, it would have been emptied out long ago. You guys are still too young; this stuff is absolutely not to be touched."

They had seen too many tragedies like this, where the victims all thought they were special and would definitely be able to sell their goods, only to end up losing a fortune, some even incurring huge debts and forced to become servants.

They discussed it amongst themselves, and it didn't seem like Shi Feng was using Source Techniques:

"His eyes lacked any divine light, he didn't unleash any source magic, and even his stone-cutting technique was quite ordinary. Could he really be relying purely on luck?"

"As expected of the successor of the Azure Emperor, he came from the other side of the starry sky riding a coffin pulled by nine dragons, and came out of the desolate ancient forbidden land without dying. He became the successor of the Great Emperor in less than a year, and he even has the blood of the Jiang family flowing in his veins. He is probably a person with great fortune."

"He has both the elixir of immortality and immortal gold. Even the Northern Emperor Teng seems inferior to him. Let's invite him to cut the stone again tomorrow. I don't believe his luck can be that terrifying."

Within the Holy City, rumors about Shi Feng intensified, which was exactly what Shi Feng and the Jiang family wanted to see.

Shi Feng hummed a song as he sat in the Drunken Immortal Palace, enjoying the delicacies. Jiang Yifei prepared a banquet to welcome him back.

The Holy Maiden of Yaoguang also came over. She sat down naturally next to Shi Feng, exuding a faint fragrance. Her smile was bright and beautiful, attracting everyone's attention.
