Chapter 231 – Where is Zhao
At the inn in Lianmo City, Wang Lin resided for three days, and during these three days, there were YuanYing cultivators who came to visit one after another, and Wang Lin changed his indifferent attitude and received them one by one, and got to know quite a few strange people.
Most of these YuanYing cultivators were not from this city, but had come here specifically to participate in the secret market, Wang Lin’s battle with the bald man immediately made these people have respect, knowing that everything in the cultivation world is based on strength, the lightness of touch shown by Wang Lin in killing the bald man immediately shook these people’s hearts, and this led to a scene of personally coming to the door.
Three days of time passed in a flash, and in the blink of an eye it was the day that the secret market opened, early this morning, there was a Jiedan stage cultivator came to the inn, respectfully handed Wang Lin a secret market invitation, and then personally led the way to the store.
The old man of the store, after seeing Wang Lin, his eyes showed an extremely respectful color, carefully welcomed Wang Lin into the store, and then punched a wall in the backyard, and immediately the wall swung up with water ripples.
After doing this, he took out a set of straw raincoat from within his storage bag and respectfully handed it to Wang Lin.
Wang Lin stood in place, did not take a step, but the divine sense swept inward, immediately found that there is a different world inside, that is a fine to the extreme attic, which is already sitting in seven or eight Yuanying cultivators, these people are wearing a straw raincoat, or sitting alone, or talking softly with each other.
In Wang Lin’s divine sense sweep into, in addition to a middle-aged scribe in the eyes are closed eyes open eyes, other people do not have half a point of detection of this person, but also the only one who is not wearing a straw raincoat.
That middle-aged scribe color as usual, but there is a hint of surprise in the eyes flashed.
Wang Lin inside a Bing, just now he swept his divine sense, found that most of the temple cultivators are the early stage, but only this cultivator, although the surface cultivation is the early stage, but the actual cultivation, actually has reached the peak of the late stage of the baby, the distance from the God of the gods, is only a step away.
And this person does not know what kind of law he is practicing, his divine sense is quite powerful, and he can actually find Wang Lin’s divine sense.
After recovering his divine sense, Wang Lin took the straw raincoat and put it on his head. Without saying anything, he took a step. Entered the wall. When he appeared. He was already inside the hall. After finding a seat, he sat down. He closed his eyes and rested his mind.
This kind of behavior immediately made some cultivators who were ready to talk to him. They changed their minds.
Although Wang Lin had his eyes closed. However, his divine sense had been seemingly staring at the middle-aged scribe at an oblique angle to him. At the moment he entered just now, the middle-aged scribe’s gaze. It had been placed on his body. It did not dissipate for a long time.
After a while. Several more cultivators came here. Among these people. Most of them were wearing straw raincoats on their heads. Covering up their appearance, some of them even had a layer of black mist outside their bodies.
When Wang Lin saw this, he already knew. These people were obviously concerned about being recognized. If they reveal the treasures they traded. They would invite trouble for themselves.
It’s just that among the cultivators here, there are quite a few who don’t cover their appearance. Obviously there is something to rely on. Not afraid to expose their identity.
However, Wang Lin has a doubt in the bottom of his heart, the district is a Lianmo City secret market, how can there be so many polyinfant cultivators here.
He looked around, this hall seat, there are about thirty, is it that today’s secret market, a total of more than thirty Yuanying cultivators to participate in it.
Although his heart is confused, on the surface Wang Lin is calm and comfortable.
Waiting for a while, no more cultivators to come here, at this time, sitting in the upper position of a person wearing a straw raincoat, a dry cough, a sweep of the eyes, slowly said: “The secret market, is held jointly by the three cities, so there are more people, but all of you are here to exchange for their respective needs, I think it should be loaded. Old man first.” Saying that, he took out a storage bag and poured it in front of him, and several inner dans as well as several pieces of magic treasures flew out from within it.
On top of the magic treasures, the hidden sharpness obviously possessed great power.
“Inner Dan for the middle grade spirit beast, you also know, this middle grade spirit beast, already equivalent to the cultivation of the late stage of YuanYing. These several pieces of magic treasures are all made from the bone material of middle-grade spirit beasts, and their power is not bad, especially this bell, which is made from the ear drum of a parapterous beast, and its efficacy is extraordinary. These things, only exchange for spirit stones.” This person slowly said.
These items, floating in front of this person, if someone has a fancy, just reach out and call, the items will immediately fly into their hands. This kind of secret market, there is no fear that someone will cheat after getting the items, to know that within this hall, there are quite powerful formations, if you grab the treasure and run away, it’s just asking for food.
All of these things were learned by Wang Lin when he talked to someone in the past few days. At this time, when he heard the other party say that this secret market is jointly organized by the three cities, the bottom of his heart immediately realized that this place must be a similar existence to a spatial rift, within the three cities, like the store that Wang Lin just entered, there must be quite a lot of existence, these cultivators, they only need to choose a place, then they will be transported to this place.
In this way, the safety of the traders was more securely guaranteed.
After waiting for a long time, except for a masked cultivator who traded a spirit stone for that bell magic treasure, no one else moved, and soon, it was the next person’s turn.
Slowly, all sorts of magic treasures, pills, and secret hyacinths were gradually taken out from the hands of the crowd in the hall, which could be described as an endless stream of these things, each of which was of great value, far from being obtainable by an ordinary cultivator.
Even if they took out one thing and placed it in the Alchemy Pavilion, it could all be placed on the highest floor and sold for a heavenly price. These cultivators in the temple, most of them are only exchange, not for sale, often the most favorite things, is all kinds of alchemy, refining materials, of course, if there is a finished magic treasure, potion exchange, it is more popular, in addition to these, and then is the spirit stone.
If in the cultivation of devil sea fog did not disperse before, the consumption of spirit stone is not too big, so the value is gradually low, just as the usual meditation needs to use.
But after the fog of the Sea of Demon Cultivation dissipated, the demonic beasts were flooded, in this way, walking in the wild has been very dangerous, so, the teleportation array, it was more and more people choose to use.
You should know that there are two types of teleportation array, one is the ancient teleportation array, it is the ancient period of the cultivators made, and survived to this day, not only the number is not much, but also most of them have been damaged, and can continue to use, is not a lot. Once opened, depending on the consumption of different, at least can be transmitted a million miles away, but the use of ancient teleportation array, can only use the best quality spirit stone, so, in the cultivation of the devil sea, almost no one can use.
After all, the best quality spirit stone, almost extinct, even if someone has this spirit stone in their hands, they will rarely be willing to use it for teleportation.
The other kind, is the ordinary teleportation array, this teleportation array is simple, each use, according to the distance, the consumption of spirit stones from ten pieces of lower grade to a hundred pieces of middle grade, although the distance of the transmission, at most is hundreds of thousands of miles, but it is inexpensive and good value for money, is the cultivators of cultivation of the Devil’s Sea, the most important way to travel.
Only in this way, the spirit stone is consumed in large quantities, gradually, the value of the spirit stone, will rise.
After trading several people, the turn of a cultivator with a straw raincoat, he lowered his head, hoarsely said: “I have not many items, just have some ancient texts, if you are interested in, can be a change, only in view of the special nature of this object, so it will not give you a close-up view.” After saying that, he slapped his storage bag, and seven or eight jade simplices flew out from within it.
These jade slips were all dull in color, and even some were already cracked, emitting a gust of vicissitudes, obviously with a certain age.
Outside of these jade slips, there is a layer of green colored shield, obviously this person set up some kind of magic treasure, used to prevent others from taking to see.
“This is an ancient demonic beast atlas, this is an ancient cultivation world secret, this is an ancient teleportation array construction diagram, and this is …… these things, only exchange for inner dan, at the very least, it should be Spirit Grade Medium, five inner dan, exchange for one jade slip.” This cultivator a introduction, then no longer speak, quietly waiting for people to ask.
All around the people immediately people frowned slightly, secretly this person’s price, is too expensive, five jade briefs for a middle-grade spirit dan are somewhat uneconomical, let alone the other way around.
In fact, the Demoiselle Cultivator also sighed inwardly, he himself has nothing to take out of things, these jade briefs is he found in an ancient cultivation of a secret house, that repair is also extremely poor, the whole house, in addition to these jade briefs, nothing else.
This Demoiselle Cultivator began, the price is not expensive, only to participate in a number of secret market, has been no one asked for, this is a gas, directly to the sky price, in his mind, these things, if placed in the hands of useless people, that is worthless, but if you meet that really need, even if the price is high, but also will certainly buy.
In fact, he guessed right.
Wang Lin heard “ancient teleportation array construction diagram”, although his expression was as usual, but inwardly it was a bang, he did not expect that he could actually encounter the ancient teleportation array jade that he had been looking for so hard here.
Without saying a word, his right hand suddenly moved, in that Demoiselle cultivator was stunned, easily broke the green light shield above those jade, directly grabbed the record of ancient teleportation array jade directly through the air, and took it over.
That Demoiselle heart shocked, hidden under the clothes of the face, immediately ugly up, he knew that this green light shield is not strong, but can be so easy to break, at least he can not do, and he believes that even the YuanYing middle stage of the cultivator, is by no means so lightly, all this can only be explained as the other party is a YuanYing late stage of the cultivator.
After the jade brief, Wang Lin’s divine sense swept, immediately without saying anything into the storage bag, at the same time threw out five medium-grade spirit beast inner dan from within it.
The Demoiselle Cultivator grabbed the inner dan, sighed darkly, did not pursue the other party to forcefully break the matter of the green light, but waited for a while, saw no one asked, then put these jade slips away.
In the moment of Wang Lin’s strike just now, the YuanYing cultivators present, there are three people quite pay attention to, one of them is that middle-aged scribe, as for the other two people, is with a straw raincoat, although it is not clear to see the face, but from the moment it raises its head, it is the eyes of the essence.
After a short silence, another cultivator began to introduce his treasure.
Time is not long, the turn of Wang Lin, at this time, the surrounding suddenly a quiet, all the cultivators have sideways glance, to know the connoisseur a shot, will know there is no, Wang Lin just a grasp, immediately let these people understand, in front of this wearing a straw raincoat Taoist friend, cultivation is not simple.
These cultivators can’t help but be quite curious about what Wang Lin can take out.
Wang Lin pondered for a little while, tapped his storage bag, and from within it flew out several medium-grade spirit beast inner dans, in addition to a few magic treasures that he didn’t use.
Seeing Wang Lin take out these unusual things, the crowd could not help but be slightly disappointed in the bottom of their hearts, but in the face under the straw raincoat, but do not show half, after all, these people one by one, old and cunning, for the control of demeanor aspect, has already reached the peak of excellence.
“Change the Vermilion Bird Star map, the fuller the better.” Wang Lin’s tone was calm and said slowly.
When this statement came out, at once, the surrounding cultivators each had an odd expression, and after a long time, one of them asked tentatively, “Fellow Daoist, with these things, exchanging for a map, I’m afraid it’s very difficult to exchange, even if it’s even the map of the Cultivation Demon Sea, I’m afraid I can’t exchange it.”
Wang Lin looked as normal and said, “Oh? Then what is it that can be exchanged for the map?”
The middle-aged scribe smiled gently and said, “You must have come to the Sea of Devil Cultivation for a short time, I’ll explain it for you, not to mention the Sea of Devil Cultivation, in the Vermilion Bird Star, the map of any cultivation country is a valuable thing, after all, the Vermilion Bird Star is too big, and without a map, it’s really inconvenient.
As for the Sea of Devil Cultivation, it was even more so, a pair of inferior maps, if converted into top grade spirit stones, would require at least 100,000 pieces. As for the medium and even the top grade, that’s basically priced out of the market, and these items from you, Taoist friend, are simply not enough.
Not to mention the map of the entire Vermilion Bird Planet, that’s hardly something an individual cultivator can obtain. If you have an equivalent item, then I do have a map of the Cultivation Demon Sea, only this map is only inferior, and many of the places within it are not very comprehensive.”
Wang Lin was silent for a little while and slowly said, “Do you have a large-scale map that includes the surrounding cultivation countries of the Cultivation Demon Sea?”
The middle-aged scribe smiled bitterly and shook his head, “I don’t have such a map.”
“I do!” A Demoiselle Cultivator sitting in the corner suddenly said. This person was exactly one of the people whose eyes showed a brilliant aura when Wang Lin made his move earlier.
Wang Lin’s gaze condensed and landed on this person.
“The Cultivator Sea and the four continents around it, a hundred and forty-eight countries’ top quality maps, what price are you offering?” The Demoiselle Cultivator, in a calm tone, slowly said.
The words out, the surrounding cultivators suddenly have sideways glance, eyes are flashing bright light, to know the top map, this is already sky-high price, and this person’s map, actually with the surrounding four continents one hundred and forty-eight countries, which is almost equivalent to one-tenth of the entire Vermilion Bird Star.
The price of this map is definitely unimaginably expensive!
Wang Lin was silent for a little while, he currently had two maps in his hands, one of which was Qiu Siping’s topography, and the other was a gift from the Palace Woman of the War God’s Temple.
Palace dress woman’s map, should be said to be more comprehensive, but also just stop at the cultivation of the Devil Sea, which for the fire burning country where the Xuanwu continent is the most detailed, as for the cultivation of the Devil Sea outside the periphery, is a little bit less, once you enter the inner sea, basically, is only roughly, and even some of the teleportation arrays have not been labeled.
For the continent at the other end of the Cultivation Demon Sea, it is even more than roughly, only some simple mountain ranges outlined, when Wang Lin analyzed, this continent, it should be where the country of Zhao is, just that there are no details on it, Wang Lin is just a guess, so this is why there is a hasty action, but rather looking for a more comprehensive map.
“What do you want?” Wang Lin was silent for a little while and opened his mouth.
“Fellow Daoist, this matter is not urgent, why don’t you and I have a secret talk after the market disperses in a little while?” The Demoiselle Cultivator transmitted his voice.
Wang Lin glanced at this person and nodded.
The crowd looked at it, all knew it, and no longer paid attention to it, but in their hearts, they were quite curious about what Wang Lin would actually take in exchange for such a precious thing.
An hour later, the secret ended and the crowd got up to leave. Wang Lin out of the hall, in the courtyard to take off the straw raincoat back to the store, a thousand delicate hundred female repair, has been waiting in the store.
After seeing Wang Lin, this woman rushed on and respectfully said, “Senior, my teacher said that he has an appointment with you, let me take you to see him.”
Wang Lin inner suddenly moved, the bottom of the heart suddenly alert, but the eyes are always calm, looked at this woman, this woman is already not a virgin, the cultivation level is just the late stage of foundation building, just its body spirit power deficit, obviously often be caused by the complementary.
Wang Lin heart has analyzed, the Demoiselle Cultivator long pick up the art.
In this woman’s guide, Wang Lin to even Mo City, an inconspicuous residential place, the woman stopped outside the door, said in a delicate voice: “Seniors please come in, juniors waiting outside on the line.”
Wang Lin did not talk nonsense, directly pushed the door into, his divine sense has long been dispersed, for a glance inside.
See an eagle nose old man, wearing a red cedar, sitting in the courtyard, next to a set of emerald green pots, saw Wang Lin came in, this person laughed, got up and cupped his fists and said, “Dao friend please, this is the fire burning country’s good inflammation tea, under the special take out to use to entertain Dao friend.”
Wang Lin cupped his fists, threw out his hem and sat across from the old man, not even looking at the teacup, but instead, his gaze calmly surveyed the surroundings. The cultivation of the other party he could already tell under a sweep that it was in the YuanYing.
That old man didn’t mind, personally poured two cups of tea, took a sip after picking it up, his eyes turned to Wang Lin and smiled, “What’s your name, Mr. Dao?”
Wang Lin smiled slightly and said, “Wang Lin!”
“Fellow Daoist Wang, I’m Zhou Wude.” The old man put down his teacup and smiled gently.
Wang Lin’s demeanor was stunned as he glanced at this person.
When the old man saw Wang Lin’s expression, he said in surprise, “Have you heard of me, Fellow Daoist Wang?”
“No, it’s just that you and a former friend of mine have the same name, so I was a bit lost in thought.” Wang Lin shook his head and said flatly.
The old man was dumbfounded, but inwardly, he was a Bing, secretly saying what did this person mean by this? Could it be that he was making such an appearance to trick himself?
The old man can not guess the other side of the idea, but on the surface is a laugh, said: “Oh, if there is an opportunity, I would like to get acquainted with this person.”
After saying that, he slapped his storage bag, took out a jade slip, and spoke, “Fellow Daoist Wang, this jade slip, is the map that I said, I cast it out, so that you can check it out, and after making sure that there is no mistake, we will talk again.”
The old man spat out his spiritual energy, and the jade slip immediately emitted a soft light, and immediately afterward, a huge map suddenly flashed out from within it and was displayed in front of Wang Lin.
This map is extremely detailed, and even the degree of damage to each ancient transmission array has a detailed description, in addition, there are various forces, sects, cultivation family introduction, for its YuanYing above the cultivators, but also has a name.
These are not the focus, the focus is the ancient teleportation array there, actually has the direction it goes, a more detailed introduction, this point alone, the value of this map, in vain multiplied.
More let Wang Lin feel moved, is the forces behind the various cultivation countries, there are some simple description, and even some mineral deposits, spirit beasts habitat, also has a more detailed record, in this way, the map of the degree of preciousness, self-evident.
If these are moving, then let Wang Lin heart a shock, is he clear to see, cultivate the devil sea around, is not as the war god temple palace dress woman map that only two continents.
This map, clearly described, a total of four continents, which the left side of a piece, there is a very small location, written a word Zhao!
The old man’s right hand randomly point in one of the map location, suddenly the map disappeared, transformed into the old man before the point of the position, this area, constantly enlarged, showing the map in front of Wang Lin, as if a person in the high altitude bird’s-eye view of the general clear.
Then the old man waved his right hand, the map all disappeared, reclaimed within the jade slip, was placed in his storage bag, looked at Wang Lin.
Wang Lin’s gaze was calm, looking at the old man, he now had the urge to kill, just kill the other party, snatch this jade slip, he could return to Zhao as quickly as possible.
The old man immediately took a few steps back, his demeanor was grave, and he said under his breath, “Fellow Daoist, this jade slip is already quite old, and it can easily shatter, in order to prevent it from shattering, I’ve already used my divine sense to connect with it.”
Wang Lin’s gaze was calm as he slowly said, “What do you want, say.”
The old man clenched his teeth and said, “As long as you team up with me to kill one person, I will give you this jade slip!”
“What cultivation level!” A cold aura flashed in Wang Lin’s eyes.
“Late YuanYing stage great circle, demigod realm!” The old man said quickly.
Wang Lin stood up and said flatly, “Is it now? Lead the way!”
The old man was stunned, hesitated for a little bit, and immediately said, “Okay, Fellow Daoist Wang, please follow me!” After saying this, his body flashed and flew up in the air, with Wang Lin following closely behind.
The two of them left Lianmo City in the blink of an eye, three thousand miles outside the city, there is a basin, not long after, the two of them came to the sky above this place, Wang Lin’s divine sense swept, inwardly, immediately laughed coldly, he just now felt that things are a little wrong, this person seems to have long been aware of his general, especially in the store inside the female cultivator, actually once he saw himself, he immediately went up, at that time he felt that this matter is very fishy.
In that residence, he to the words of the same name to test, although the old man looks as usual, but to Wang Lin’s strong sense of God, immediately noticed that the other party’s mind slightly messed up. Now take a look, it is really like his own guess.
Underneath this basin, there was a formation with four YuanYing cultivators hidden within it.
“Unfortunately, if that bald cultivator didn’t die, this place is just right for you six people to form an extermination and killing formation!” Wang Lin said in a calm tone.
The hawk-nosed old man’s face immediately changed, and just then, Wang Lin’s extreme realm moved. The old man didn’t even have time to crush the jade slip, and all he saw in his eyes was red lightning.
