Chapter 120.
Following the instructions of the Greenleaf Order, tan san smoothly entered the black market.
This time, the black market was fundamentally different from the last time.
First of all, it was big.
The place was big.
Although it was the outskirts of the market, it was a long street-like residence, and from the street to the end of the street, a distance of a hundred or so meters, was where the black market was located.
This place, tan san previously lived in the periphery of the market, but also heard of, is a gang called the axe gang lair, is a lot of martial artists to join together to set up a gang forces, at first, had also solicited tan san’s father.
But in order to take care of him, who was still young at the time, Zhou Qiankun refused.
Nowadays, he did not expect that this was actually a black market place.
Moreover, when tan san looked at the martial artists guarding the door, looked at the normal traffic, masked and covered the face of the various cultivators, only to realize that this is actually a permanent black market place.
The Green Leaf Order was not the only entry and exit credential for this black market.
tan san noticed that some people took out, is the spirit stone, a lower grade spirit stone, and that person is not a cultivator, but a martial artist.
Of course there were also cultivators, who had unhindered access just by virtue of their cultivation.
Cultivators were free, while martial mortals, were charged?
Or perhaps there was a requirement for the cultivation level of the cultivator?
Then tan san noticed that indeed, the only cultivators who did not need spirit stones to enter and exit were those above the middle stage of qi refining.
The others, even those at the third level of qi cultivation, had obediently offered a lower-grade spirit stone when they walked up to the door.
This fee, for even the bottom layer cultivators, was not considered low.
“However, judging from here, this should be a normal black market.
The Greenleaf Alliance, is just pretending to use this one black market to organize activities.
It’s just that such a black market, in vain ‘I’ had lived here for decades before, but I didn’t even know about it ……”
tan san thought in his heart, but when he thought of the entry threshold of one inferior spirit stone, he shook his head helplessly.
Even if he knew, so what.
This entry and exit fee was not low for him back then.
He reckoned that even if he knew about it at that time, he wouldn’t be able to spare a trip in.
After that, tan san approached the past, similarly showing his cultivation at the ‘fourth level of Qi Practicing’, and was then respectfully invited in by the guard.
After crossing a long corridor and then taking a turn, he truly entered the black market.
There was a different kind of heaven.
As one looked in, it was a market that was similar to a loose cultivator’s bazaar, with many people setting up stalls.
Just the things placed on these stalls, all sorts of things, magic weapons, talismans, jade slips, elixirs …… Some things are even stained with blood on top.
Obviously, these were all stolen goods of unknown origin.
This black market, in fact, is equivalent to a place where stolen goods are sold.
tan san swept through them, most of them were of low value.
At least for him nowadays, they were of little use.
It wasn’t until near the end of the street that he saw someone in a stall, placing many ancient jade slips.
“These are ancient slips?”
Before tan san could speak, in front of him, a person asked curiously.
“Fellow Daoist with good eyesight.
These are precisely ancient slips, most of them were obtained by me some time ago, when I explored an ancient tomb.
Especially these five ancient slips, they are all treasures that haven’t had their bans broken, and it’s highly likely that the inside is a divine technique, or an ancient inheritance, a supreme secret art.
For only one hundred lower grade spirit stones a piece, one could seek a chance, an opportunity.
It would be a shame to miss it.”
That stall owner was an old man with a full beard, a pair of think small eyes were permeated with shrewdness, warmly greeted.
“Too expensive.”
The man shook his head and said with a reluctant face.
“Not expensive, think about it, if there is some supreme technique in here, after you learn it, your cultivation will soar, it is directly possible to build the foundation, is it not a great value?
What you’re buying is not a jade slip, but a chance to soar to the heavens.”
That person was still a bit hesitant, one hundred lower grade spirit stones, not a small amount.
“If you sincerely want it, eighty lower grade spirit stones a piece you take away.
I also see that you have a destiny, otherwise I wouldn’t sell it to an ordinary person.”
The stall owner’s small eyes turned when he saw this, and even said quickly again.
That person seems to be a sincere person, gritted his teeth and quoted a price of fifty lower grade spirit stones, the stall owner immediately opened his mouth and said, “Okay, okay, counting you earn a big bargain, who told me that I happen to be short of spirit stones it ……”
Then he took the spirit stones and just let the man pick one.
Only after that person left, then he looked at tan san with a smile on his face again and said, “Fellow Daoist, do you have a fancy.”
“No, you this color is too new, not like the ancient simple.”
Under tan san’s Spiritual Eye Technique, he could of course see that many of these seemingly ancient jade simplices, the soil stained on them were all obvious traces of old age.
Even, if he wanted to, the old traces can be much deeper than this person, as long as a channel of the Wheel of the Year technique down, these jade slips, immediately will become a real more than a hundred years after the passage of the years of the ancient slips.
“You do not understand can not talk nonsense.
This is all ancient slips that have just been unearthed by me, and what is recorded inside, not to mention divine secret techniques and supreme immortal techniques, that could also be of certain powerful spells and divine abilities.”
The old man snorted coldly and said.
“It was just unearthed.”
tan san smiled and nodded, then continued, “However, it was buried just last month.”
“You ……”
The old man’s face changed, and he even said, “Hurry up if you don’t want to buy it.”
“Buy ah, it just so happens that I’ve been learning about unblocking recently and want to practice.
Although this jade slip of yours is fake, but the prohibition is real, I would like to try, this three years of learning the method of unlocking the prohibition, can I unlock the prohibition on this.
Just these five pieces.”
tan san said with a casual face, fiddled with his hand a few times, picked five pieces of five jade slips on the stall, then lowered his voice and said, “You don’t take the price that fooled that friend of the Taoist just now and give it to me, or else ……”
“Ten lower grade spirit stones you take away.
Although this jade slip of mine is not worth much, but the prohibition on it was specially invited to set up, but it didn’t cost a lot of spirit stones.”
That old man glanced at tan san, his cultivation above the fourth level of Qi Practicing was undisputed, and he instantly said very sensibly.
“Alright!”
tan san nodded, and also decidedly took out ten lower grade spirit stones and handed them over.
Then, he also obediently took those five jade slips and put them inside his storage bag.
As a matter of fact, when the man was negotiating the price with the stall owner earlier, his Spiritual Eye Technique had been scanning the jade slips on that stall, and most of them were indeed, as he had said, ‘newly’ unearthed items.
But there was actually another piece, with tan san’s already accomplished Spiritual Eye Technique, he couldn’t even see any traces of forgery.
The so-called fake to the extreme is true.
Regardless of whether it was real or fake, he didn’t mind spending some spirit stones to explore it.
After all, ten lower-grade spirit stones were not that expensive for him nowadays.
Only then did he drop his gaze to the end of the street, where there was an attic, and outside the attic, there was a screen blocking it, so he couldn’t see what was going on inside.
But before that, he had already seen more than one cultivator, enter the attic, and of course, there were also people who walked out from the screen.
The key was that among those who entered and exited the attic, there were several that looked very familiar to him, and they were the same group of people from the Green Leaf Alliance that he had seen in the last black market.
Among them, there were even two, who were above the late stage of Qi Practicing.
Curious in his heart, tan san could not help but walk over.
A familiar formation diaphragm, immediately blocked him out, did not hesitate, he directly took out the Green Leaf Order, inspired a spiritual light, instantly the formation diaphragm dissipated, he also stepped into it.
Walked out of the screen, into the eyes of the dozens of cultivators, is staying in this spacious living room, raised his head to look at the living room in the three light board.
On the light boards, there were many quests recorded.
Assassination, searching for things, treasure, adventure, help …… all kinds of tasks, according to the risk of each aspect, divided into small tasks, medium-sized tasks and large tasks three categories.
Among them, there are tasks that can be completed by individuals, and there are also large tasks that require the combined efforts of several people.
Anyway, the rewards were announced there, so if you were interested, you could take them.
But after the distribution of the loot, it will have to be distributed by the people who participated in the completion of the task themselves.
And at the forefront of them were several large-scale missions.
The quests of handing over the Foundation Establishment Spirit Item and providing the Unicorn Red Mang’s Unicorn Horn that he had seen last month were clearly on the list.
On top of that, there were many more assassination-type, or assault-type quests.
However, the one that ranked first was an assassination mission.
Assassinate Bai Dongxian, reward one Foundation Establishment Pill and ten thousand points.
“So public?”
tan san’s face changed slightly when he saw the name on the mission.
Bai Dongxian, was none other than the managing family of Fengmingwu Square Market, the old ancestor of the Bai Clan, a cultivator at the eighth level of Foundation Establishment.
In addition to Bai Dongxian, there are many large-scale tasks, written on top of the name of the Bai family, one by one, all famous, all are Foundation Establishment realm cultivators, the lowest rewards are Foundation Condensation Pill, Vein Protection Pill.
One of the base condensation dan, is the ninth level of cultivator breakthrough foundation realm, in order to get through the foundation of the three passes in the spirit of the pass, and is specifically used to consolidate the foundation, accelerate the condensation of liquid spirit of the spirit of the dan.
On the other hand, the Vein Protecting Pill is used by cultivators to save their lives during Foundation Establishment.
At the time of foundation building, the danger is abnormal, if it is successful, it is just, like a carp leaping over the Dragon Gate, it can soar to the sky.
But if it fails, the flurry of spiritual energy will certainly impact all parts of the cultivator’s body, the cultivator caused almost irreversible damage, can let the cultivator internal organs damaged, meridians broken, even if as strong as the ninth layer of qi cultivation powerful cultivator, but also can not resist, not dead that is ruined.
But if there is a pulse protection Dan, protect the body internal organs, meridians, then it will pass the death of this situation, even if this foundation failure, as long as the age of not more than sixty, there is also the opportunity to pass again.
To not count, but also be able to save a life.
Countless cultivators who are preparing to build their foundation, in addition to the Foundation Establishment Pill, are most eager to obtain a spirit pill.
Both of these pills were extremely valuable.
They were also indispensable to countless cultivators who wanted to impact the Foundation Establishment Realm.
To be able to take out such a treasure as a reward for a mission, it was conceivable that the person behind the scenes was bound to be the ‘Chen Family’.
It was just that tan san had not expected that the Chen Family of today had developed to the point where they had openly set up a reward.
Doesn’t that indicate that the conflict between the two sides has reached an irreconcilable point, and the war is about to start at any time?
tan san immediately felt a little distracted.
He did not care, Bai, Chen two families of conflict, will be carried to what degree of intensity, he only hoped that this war will not affect his own.
The last chaotic night was not a bad memory.
It was believed that no one wanted to experience it again either.
“In addition, since this Greenleaf Alliance’s mission boards are straight up setting the Bai Family’s people as the target for assassination, doesn’t that indicate that the Greenleaf Alliance, or at least the person in charge within this Phoenix Ming Dock’s workshop market, has completely fallen to the ‘Chen Family’.
It’s not safe for me to continue staying in this black market.
If I can’t deal with the Chen family, can I not deal with the loose Green Leaf Alliance?
The Bai Family, after all, has been in control of the market for decades, and their information channels are not weak, so will they tolerate the continued existence of such a black market?”
tan san’s face changed slightly as he thought of this.
No longer have the heart to continue to stay here, directly back the same way back out. Out of the attic, looking at the black market at this time is still quite lively, tan san directly to the door.
Black market entrance, from time to time people in and out.
tan san’s face, this dress, no one recognized, and did not attract attention.
Therefore, he was able to walk out of the black market smoothly.
After leaving, he raised his eyes and looked at the sky.
Although it was evening, under the dark clouds, the sky was already completely dark.
He hurriedly took a quick step towards the inner city of the workshop.
Only after walking for a while, he immediately saw a group of Marketplace Guards, being led by a certain tall cultivator, rushing from the distance in a hurried manner.
tan san’s face changed slightly.
Sure enough, his previous guess was right.
The Bai Clan, it was impossible to tolerate that within the workshop, someone was openly placing a bounty on their own members, and that too on all the main members including the Bai Clan’s oldest ancestor.
It was too arrogant, too brazen.
A loose organization like the Greenleaf Alliance was not a secret at all to the Bai and Chen families, and even more so, they would always keep an eye on it.
tan san carefully shrunk to the side, and under the Breath Convergence Technique, under the change of breath, he quickly changed into an ordinary Qi Practicing First Level Cultivator, not the least bit inconspicuous.
It was only after this group of marketplace guards left that he quickened his pace and quickly headed towards the inner city of the marketplace, his own courtyard.
Boom!
As expected.
Not long after he left, he heard a rumbling sound suddenly erupt from the area where that black market was located.
Immediately afterward, there were countless battle sounds coming out.
Half an hour later, tan san smoothly returned to his courtyard.
“It’s too exciting.
If I had taken a step at night, I would have been caught in the middle of a battle.
Fortunately, I woke up in time and was spared this battle.”
tan san was thankful.
Although the Bai Family had kept a very low profile in the last half a year and had been in a state of torpor, it did not mean that the Bai Family was weak.
As a matter of fact, having been in charge of the market for decades, the Bai family had earned a lot of profits and resources over the years, and had cultivated a lot of talents and cultivators.
Bai Yu Feng, Bai Yu Feng, Bai Yu Heng …… one by one, are all foundation realm true cultivators.
This is still the young generation of sixty years old and above.
Among the older generation, the Bai family also has three great elders, as well as the patriarch Bai Zhan Tang, and the Bai family’s old ancestor Bai Dongxian ……
In terms of absolute strength, it was actually far superior to the Chen Family.
If it wasn’t for the fact that the White Family’s old ancestor was injured, plus his life expectancy was approaching, the Chen Family wouldn’t have dared to act rashly at all.
The Fengmingwu Square Market, too, would inevitably still be under the control of the Bai Family, and besides the Qingyuan Sect, no one would be able to shake it.
“Today has passed, and there is still one more day tomorrow.
The day after tomorrow, is the time to leave.
Now I only hope that these two days, will be calm and quiet, and that no more incidents will occur.”
tan san thought of the incidents he encountered today.
Before, everything had gone quite smoothly, running into Ghost Eyes Zhao Shanhe, purchasing the Small Five Elements Thousand Thunder Technique in the Bai Clan’s merchant house, and then coincidentally encountering the captain of the guards, Yan Zhenxi, with the other party vaguely reminding that if he encountered any dangers, he could still go to him to seek refuge.
After that, it is to go to the periphery of the workshop market, actually accidentally learned of his father, but also sent a letter.
Thinking of that letter, tan san hastily from the storage bag, took out that copy of the vellum.
After opening it, I really saw a letter, a total of five or six pages.
“Wang’er pro-enlightenment ……”
tan san’s eyes fell on the letter paper, recognizing that it was precisely his father Zhou Qiankun’s handwriting, his heart and mind were slightly relieved.
In the letter, the main thing was Zhou Qiankun’s current situation and some of the things he had encountered.
Among them, his father mentioned that he is now in the territory of Tianwu country, looking for a place to live down, because of the martial arts in the body, but also happened to help the Tianwu country of a state minister to solve the problem, is very smooth in a place called Pingyang County landed, but also bought a huge manor, married three wives, four concubines, is bound to the Zhou family to open up a branch of the family.
And mentioned at the end of the letter, when this letter was sent out, it so happened that one of his flat wife, already pregnant, indicating that tan san has now become an older brother, wait until the age of ten or so, can be detected when the spiritual root, it is bound to be detected.
And emphasized, if then really have a spiritual root, to help him take care of one or two, etc. ……
Finally, left the corresponding address, instructed him in the immortal cultivation world, be careful at all times, as thin ice ……
“In that case, it is also very good.”
tan san saw that his father was in good condition and had taken several wives and concubines, and his heart was also pleased.
During the twenty years in the Immortal Cultivation Realm, Zhou Qiankun had suffered too much.
Now that he was able to enjoy his happiness in the mortal realm, with his martial arts skills, as long as he had no ambitions, he would be able to have a hundred children and a thousand grandchildren and enjoy his old age in peace.
In this way, he can also rest assured.
However, the reply letter, he has to write.
But now at this time of chaos in the market, this letter can be sent back, he is not really sure.
Can only find another opportunity is.
Then, tan san took out a jade slip.
Small Five Elements Thousand Thunders Technique.
His spiritual sense moved slightly and invaded it.
The jade slip of the Bai Clan’s merchant bank was still as before, it was based on a heart and soul oath, unlike many jade slips that were sealed with a forbidden method.
Both have their own advantages and disadvantages.
Among them, the heart and soul oath, the binding is the cultivator’s personal.
If the jade slip is lost, or for the cultivation of the road has long been given up, can not pay attention to these, directly can be widely spread.
The method of prohibition, first of all, can rely on the means of prohibition, intercepting most of the people to spy on the cultivation, if you do not understand the prohibition method to forcefully break the ban, and may even lead to the power of the prohibition, will be annihilated into the dregs of the jade slip.
Since it is not possible to pry into the immortal law inheritance within the jade brief.
Of course, if there are cultivators who have mastered the method of breaking the ban, then this restriction will not play much of a role.
Therefore, some of the tightly guarded, and will make articles on the content ……
In the Immortal Cultivation world, the law is not lightly transmitted.
Various big clans, forces, there are always a variety of means to prevent and crack …… detail up, enough to form a bias of a great system.
tan san made a mental oath.
Finally successfully ‘saw’ the information within the jade slip.
“The Lesser Five Elements Thousand Thunder Technique is worthy of being a high-level spell.
It involves the concept of Thunder Law, which is very profound, and most importantly, there are ninety-three runic structures that make up this Thunder Law.
It could truly be described as an actual high-grade thunder spell.
It’s quite a bit more than even the Five Elements Glazed Heart Lantern that also belongs to the first-grade high-grade spells.”
tan san looked at the structure of the runes that made up this spell.
One by one, he compared them.
A hint of joy appeared on his face.
“Sure enough.
The Thousand Thunder Flash and the Five Elements Thunder Transformation Technique were indeed split and simplified through this Little Five Elements Thousand Thunder Technique.
Of the ninety-three runic structures, a full sixty-seven runic structures are those possessed within these two spells.
In other words.
If I want to learn this spell, I only need to be proficient in the remaining twenty-seven runic structures, and that would be enough.”
This, could be countless times easier than normal cultivation of a high ranked spell.
As for the remaining twenty-seven runic structures? It was only equivalent to a relatively higher-quality beginner-ranked spell.
It wasn’t that difficult at all.
tan san only spent half an hour familiarizing himself with each and every one of these runic structures.
Then he directly began to try and cast them.
Once, twice, three times ……
After the hundredth time.
tan san controlled the spiritual energy within his body, rapidly completing each and every rune structure until the last one, which he had successfully coalesced.
Buzz~!
In an instant, most of the spiritual energy within his body was extracted.
A massive amount of spiritual energy quickly surged into the rune structure, after filling it up.
In the middle of the sky.
Instantly, dark clouds covered the sky.
Endless thunder and lightning power converged within it.
Terrifying power, hovering within it, like a terrifying void beast, was opening its mouth wide, preparing to brew a thunderous strike on the bottom.
“This movement ……”
tan san raised his head slightly, then glanced at the spell wall in front of him again.
For the first time, he doubted whether the forbidden spirit stones on this spell wall would be able to forbid the terrifying power of this endless thunder and lightning, and be able to block this terrifying strike of a thousand thunderbolts gathering together.
Then, he clenched his teeth.
“Release!”
Boom boom boom!
Endless thunder snakes, like a thousand armies, instantly shot down from the void.
All of them were controlled by him and blasted towards the spell wall.
Buzzing ……
The void trembled and the earth roared.
Above the spell wall, endless dust lifted up.
Endless spiritual light, illuminating the entire secret room, was incandescent.
If it wasn’t for the fact that tan san had long ago placed a mist formation and a soundproofing formation in his courtyard, which could isolate the sound movements and voices, only the fluctuation of spiritual energy coming out of this spell, and the movement of the spell falling down, would have been enough to attract most of the people in the workshop.
A good while.
The dust dispersed.
The raging thunder and lightning also dissipated.
Only then did tan san set his eyes on the spell wall.
The sight that entered his eyes caused his eyes to glaze over.
“This, is too atrocious?”
