Having confirmed this, Song Chi no longer hesitated.

Swoosh!

He tossed a Fourth Rank Blood Bodhi directly to Zhou Ping, along with a dozen rare Spirit Grass from the stall, while he himself took the [Immeasurable Sword Stone] into his hands.

Across from him, Zhou Ping also showed a smile, quickly storing everything into his Storage Bag.

Clearly, this was a mutually beneficial trade.

However, it was not over yet. Zhou Ping soon gave Song Chi another pleasant surprise by quickly heading to the Oddity Exchange Shop after completing their trade.

Under Song Chi's gaze, he took out a Red Epic Oddity and successfully exchanged it for a [Ruins Market Walking Rank].

Of course, having obtained this [Ruins Market Walking Rank], the [Ruins Market Guest Token] in his possession was promptly reclaimed by Song Chi.

A single being could not possess multiple Ruins Market Tokens, a rule that Song Chi had long established.

After all, there were only ten [Ruins Market Guest Token] and [Ruins Market Walking Rank], making them extremely limited.

Regrettably, the Red Oddity he had used to exchange for the [Ruins Market Walking Rank] could not be transformed into a shipborne component, so Song Chi could only keep it as the fourth item in the Oddity Exchange Shop's collection of Red Epic Oddities.

In the free stall area, after posing for dozens of minutes, Song Chi finally began tidying up his stall.

He had originally planned to browse other stalls thoroughly.

Now endowed with Double Pupils, even objects that he couldn't see through under the enhancement of Ruins Market Law in the past had to show some clues in front of him now; it was an ideal opportunity for a good find.

However, before he could mingle in the Alien Race crowd, a subtle fluctuation came from the second floor of the adjacent inn, where another [Ruins Market Guest Token] resided.

At long last, the Half-Rodent from the Divine Domain Continent of Third Rank "logged on."

Song Chi had always paid great attention to this mysterious Third Rank Half-Rodent simply because of the suspected Seventh Rank Starry Sea Floating Land from the Divine Domain behind him.

As expected, after the Half-Rodent left the inn, he headed straight to the free stall area.

Once he had set up his own stall, blocks of familiar Origin Stones were continuously taken out from what seemed to be an ordinary leather bag behind him.

Seeing this, Song Chi, who had been waiting for a long time, immediately narrowed his eyes.

These Double Pupils, controlled by [Double Bright Blood Pact], did not reveal their mystical nature unless he stimulated them actively. Once he did, the mystery of having two pupils in each eye would manifest completely. If he didn't conceal it somewhat, it would be easily caught by those paying attention.

Of course, within this Ruins Market, as long as he wished, no one could detect the abnormality in his eyes; it was merely an instinctive reaction from Song Chi.

With the stimulation of his Double Pupils, Song Chi suddenly felt the scene in front of him change drastically. The Origin Stones, which looked somewhat obscure and uncertain before, now seemed as if they were fully exposed before his eyes.

Realizing this, Song Chi naturally felt joy.

Before this, he had fallen into quite a few pits.

When he first purchased the Origin Stones, he indeed found a significant loophole, but his luck in the following attempts was not so fortunate. Among those opaque Origin Stones, there were indeed treasures, but more often were merely ones with a special outer shell, empty inside or containing ordinary items. After several occurrences, Song Chi had suffered considerable losses.

This time, he vowed to restore his ground.

Strictly speaking, could he endure being deceived by outsiders in his own "battlefield"?

Copper Ore

Obsidian

First Rank Floating Land Origin

Third Rank Life Core

Third Rank Floating Land Origin

...

Under Song Chi's Double Pupils, the Origin Stones taken out by the Third Rank Half-Rodent could not hide at all; almost each piece clearly revealed its contents.

However, Song Chi did not make a move on these. He was only looking for the truly rare items.

Owing to the fact that the market had not opened for trading for more than four months, the Half-Rodent had taken out quite a few items. As he continued to inspect them, Song Chi's gaze did not linger.

When his gaze once again shifted to a fresh piece of Origin Stone, Song Chi instantly paused; this piece of Origin Stone gave him a sense of obscurity, as if the image quality had jumped from Blu-ray to standard definition in a blink, the feeling was that distinct.

However, when he focused his gaze, the situation inside the origin stone still slowly appeared before his eyes.

Fourth Rank Floating Land Origin, twenty strands.

Casually picking up this origin stone, Song Chi continued to examine the others.

A few minutes later, he had four origin stones in his hand, mostly Fourth Rank Floating Land Origins and Purple Relics.

About this, Song Chi was somewhat puzzled; until now, he hadn't seen a single high-rank origin stone that was difficult to identify.

But the next action of the Half-Rodent People soon explained everything.

One could see him suddenly pulling several distinctly different origin stones from the leather bag behind him. These origin stones had mysterious points of light on them, and the surface strata revealed strands of ancient aura, clearly very different from the other origin stones.

Holding these special origin stones in the palm of his hand, the Half-Rodent People spoke in the fluent common language of the Starry Sea:

"These five origin stones were dug up by me from a set of Emperor Ruins, and I even lost dozens of subordinates in the process, so the price will be very high. How about this, twenty strands of Fourth Rank Floating Land Origin for one piece!"

This quotation immediately scared away many from the Alien Race; twenty strands of Fourth Rank Floating Land Origin was not a small amount for the Starry Sea Alien Races, whose highest ranks were only Third Rank.

However, many Alien Races did not leave, and their faces revealed eagerness to try.

Suddenly, an Alien Species asked:

"Stall owner, what are these Emperor Ruins you mentioned?"

Knowing that an Alien Race would ask this, the Half-Rodent People quickly explained:

"In our Divine Domain Continent, beings of above Seventh Rank are referred to as Great Emperors. Emperor Ruins are the ruins that form after the fall of a Dominator!"

"Hisss!"

Immediately, hissing sounds of sharp intakes of breath arose from around the stall.

A site of a Dominator's demise, for these Second and Third Rank small Alien Races, although it was beyond their understanding, did not stop the utter shock that arose from the bottom of their hearts.

Compared to these alien races with limited knowledge, Song Chi, who maintained an impassive facade, was similarly startled inside. However, he soon turned it into a knowing nod.

He thought to himself that the Divine Domain Continent was indeed as he had speculated before, having the presence of Dominator beings, at least a Seventh Rank Life-Form Starry Sea Floating Land.

In the end, the emotions at the bottom of his heart turned to joy, which was clearly good news for him, the Ruins Market Lord.

Especially after acquiring Double Pupils, the possibilities for him to snag bargains would drastically escalate in the future, and the quality would increase as well.

Thinking thus, his double pupils converged fully on the special origin stone held by the Half-Rodent People in front of him.

"Hmm?"

He furrowed his brow. The first origin stone that caught his eye brought him a significant challenge. If the few origin stones he held, marked with "Fourth Rank Floating Land Origin" and "Purple Relic," were merely of standard definition under his double pupils, the high-rank origin stone from the Emperor Ruins now seemed like it was covered in mosaic.

He could vaguely see something sealed within, but he did not know what it was specifically.

Unwilling to let it go, he squinted intensely, and the Spectral Energy within him operated at high speed, pushing his double pupils to their limit.

Finally, with such vigorous stimulation, he managed to capture the contents inside this special origin stone.

"Fifth Rank Floating Land Origin!"

Though still quite blurry, he could ascertain that it was indeed a Fifth Rank Floating Land Origin, and the quantity was not small, more than 200 strands.

After examining this stone, Song Chi looked up and turned his gaze to the next origin stone.

His brow was deeply furrowed; the second stone was even harder to see through, despite his full use of the Double Pupils.

"It seems I need to invoke the Laws of the Ruins Market!"

His thoughts shifted, and the entire Secret Realm Laws of the Ruins Market enveloped him. Immediately, a large amount of Origin Law converged in his double pupils.

With the enhancement from this Origin Law, he soon saw clearly the contents of the second Emperor Ruins source stone.

However, after seeing its contents, his pupils abruptly constricted.

"It's actually..."
