Chapter 149.
“I’ll tell you, this is a good deal!”
“Look at that old black head, why has he recently gotten spiritual stones to eat spiritual pills and married a woman from a family that he couldn’t reach before?”
“Isn’t it because he took an order from me and completed it, and got a reward?”
“Don’t be scared by any evil spirit infested places, it’s not like we’re going to those blood sacrifice places, we’re just going in and out of the edges to help the owners find their lost items.”
“The death rate is not high!”
“At most, we will be infested with evil qi, and our path will be harmful.”
“But you and I ask ourselves, if we don’t go to earn Spirit Stones, do we still have a Taoist path to speak of?”
In the teahouse, the middle-aged cultivator who was the bounty intermediary was talking out of his ass.
Of the dozens of loose cultivators sitting in the teahouse, quite a few of them were indeed moved by the words and showed heartfelt expressions.
Then with a few loose cultivators gritting their teeth and standing up, they cursed that even if they were eaten by evil spirits, they could not die poor!
And then after finding this middle-aged cultivator to register and sign up, about one third of the casual cultivators were driven up, signing up to receive the information, and setting the next meeting time and meeting point.
Dozens of minutes later, this middle-aged cultivator smugly stroked his moustache and walked into a certain alley, and then began to count down the three scattered cultivators who had been waiting inside.
“How many times have I said, be natural in your expression and tone of voice, do you know that at least half of those present know that you are a trustee!”
“Luckily, the year is not going well now, even if the White Crane Master is merciful and allows to temporarily not charge me and other scattered cultivators all kinds of miscellaneous fees.”
“It’s too hard to want to cultivate and live a better life.”
After the middle-aged cultivator finished counting, he took out bottles with low-rank pills and distributed them to these scattered cultivators.
Spirit stones were precious, and the lowest level cultivators were more versatile in that a single spirit stone could buy quite a few consumable and large amount of low-rank pills.
The middle-aged cultivator let these people leave before slowly changing into his traveling clothes.
He was then ready to leave the Nine Leaf Mountain Market and head to another larger and more fancy market to spend his time.
Suddenly, a pressure fell from the sky.
A white shadow was seen appearing in front of him.
Even without seeing it clearly, this middle-aged cultivator had already changed his face drastically in a fierce tiger landing, and his head knocked on the cold stone slab to beg for forgiveness.
“Get up, you need not worry about anything as long as you are not lying.”
Su Ping slowly approached the middle-aged cultivator and said indifferently.
The middle-aged cultivator was sweating and hurriedly said:
“In front of the White Crane Reality, the kid doesn’t dare to lie …… I’m a person who loves money but also knows that there is a way to take it, although I used a little means, but the things that I informed those scattered cultivators are true!”
“In this regard, other workshops also have people like me, Yunshan workshop market even more official co-organized a bounty hall.”
“Real people …… will know once they check!”
Su Ping did not comment, just took all the information from him.
After consulting it in detail, Su Ping sort of understood.
These bounties were dominated by the personal bounties of those Immortal Cultivation Families that had fled the area.
They could not afford to forget some of the things they took with them, but they were not willing to go back and take the risk of encountering evil spirits or being invaded by evil qi.
So they simply gave out maps and markers as well as bounties, hoping that they could rely on the spirit stones to find someone to help them bring the things.
In addition to the bounty, the harvest of those people during this period, naturally, everything belongs to themselves.
This was also considered to be an implied benefit to the loose cultivators who were willing to take risks.
With the map markers, the casual cultivators would also be able to find the good stuff more easily.
In a sense, it was sort of a win-win situation.
And as this person said, the destinations were all on the periphery of the danger zone, and there was no blood sacrifice area.
On the one hand, it was natural that the casual cultivators wanted to make money and not get killed, and on the other hand, there were no cultivators in the blood sacrifice area who had come out alive to give out bounties.
Su Ping had no interest in bounties.
But seeing that so many cultivation clans had left so many hidden books and antiquities out in the open.
He couldn’t bear it in his heart, so he decided that he should still help.
Then, through that middle-aged cultivator, he got more information about the map.
Then, after an afternoon of fast flying.
Su Ping saw the mountain range that had completely withered and blackened, with an average height of over 10,000 meters crossing in front of him.
And saw that within this stretching group of mountains, from time to time, a stream of black gas accompanied by strange cries erupted out, resounding in this mountainous wilderness.
“After crossing this group of mountains, one leaves the Golden Character Domain and is in the Immortal Sect’s Wooden Character Domain.”
“This time, the evil spirits erupted in several regions of the Wood Character Domain near the mountains.”
“The closest …… to me should be Wood Spirit City!”
“Unlike Goldfinch City, this Wood Spirit City was originally built on a second-order spirit vein due to its historical origins, and as a result, there are quite a few cultivation clans residing within.”
“It’s considered to be one of the few territories where cultivators and mortals intermingle the most.”
“It is also one of the places that have been successfully blood sacrificed.”
Su Ping did not enter the mountains, but after finding a place to hide.
Using the Scepter of Memory, he summoned the Exorcist Cloudkong and the Knight of Fire, Alvin.
And then with one mind, he made the two Memory Phantoms speed off in different directions.
In the blink of an eye, they disappeared into the black mountains.
Along the way, when there were evil spirits encountered, those that were too strong were bypassed, and those that were weak were directly advanced and cut down with a sword!
Even if they didn’t deliberately hunt these weak evil spirits.
When they rushed out from the mountains, both the Exorcist and the Knight of Fire had a double-digit harvest of evil spirit remains.
Afterward, the Exorcist Cloudkong ran forward to the small family estates that were less dangerous on the fringes.
Knight of Fire Alvin, on the other hand, headed towards Wood Spirit City.
If there are still precious materials and even inheritance in this area, it must be the area around the blood sacrifice.
That would definitely be the circle around the blood sacrifice site.
Those places were the fastest to be affected by the evil gods or evil spirits that descended after the success of the blood sacrifice, and most of the cultivators died without having the chance to bring anything out.
Evil spirits or evil gods had no interest in these things.
As long as they were not destroyed, the probability was that they were still in place.
This made Su Ping feel that he could take a chance.
It couldn’t be helped, who let his own heritage still be too poor, and the transcendent related collections couldn’t even be stored in a large library?
Then he could only work hard on the Memory Illusions to help pick up some of the ones that others did not want to replenish his own heritage.
Dozens of minutes later.
A manor that was shrouded in black mist, so that no loose cultivator dared to go in and pick up the pieces.
Suddenly the usual tranquility was broken by a giant sword of ice and cold falling from the sky.
As the cold ice formation appeared, a cold light shot up into the sky.
The evil spirits in the manor melted into the formation like ice-cream that encountered the blinding sunlight.
And then the white-haired teenager who had cast the formation, after confirming that no evil spirits would harass him, began to collect what he needed from house to house.
This was already the third manor with cultivators that the white-haired teenager had searched for in a short period of time.
The previous two homes did not have black mist, but the harvest was not much, mainly focusing on the collection of books and some antiques, ancient scrolls and other artifacts.
However, after opening a basement of this manor, Su Ping who was far away could not help but eek out.
It was this basement, there was a wooden Buddha statue with an odd appearance.
At the same time, in the room were stored volumes and volumes of Buddhist scriptures surrounded by black gas.
“A Buddhist scripture that looks just as evil, the contents of this should be considered a type of transcendental knowledge, right?”
“Tsk, this clan of cultivators doesn’t look like good people either, perhaps the Zhuangzi Black Mist is a backhand left behind to prevent it from being crashed by those casual cultivators?”
“Let’s see, the owner of this manor seems to be the Wood Spirit Mo Family!”
Su Ping was recalling the map.
Suddenly, he realized that with the exorcist putting the Buddhist scriptures into his storage bag.
That wooden Buddha suddenly opened the three eyes on its face.
A voice came out through it:
“Who crashed into the secret room!”
“You are ……”
Before the words fell, Exorcist Yun Kong had already slapped his palm over, directly shattering the upper half of this wooden sculpture!
And then, he operated a cold ice spell formation to purify the remaining remains of the statue.
After that, Exorcist Yun Kong quickly left the basement and headed towards the next location without dragging his feet.
As for the Mo Family, which clearly had problems.
Instead, Su Ping would step in and denounce it as a good samaritan.
At the same time.
Right in the Mo Family manor that was temporarily residing in a workshop near the Qun Mountain and had not moved away from it, their old ancestor suddenly became furious.
Soon after, this Mo Family’s only remaining Foundation Establishment took more than a dozen late-stage Qi Practitioner clansmen and disappeared into the skies in a small Immortal Boat.
And on a high mountain at the outskirts of the original site of Wood Spirit City.
Knight of Fire Alvin stood at the top of the mountain and looked into the distance.
It could be discovered that the original city no longer existed, and had completely turned into a large circular pit.
It was unknown whether it was the work of the evil gods or the Jindan powers who came to clean up the mess.
On the contrary, on the periphery of the large pit, one could still see the existence of quite a few ruins.
There was no shortage of ruins that resembled the shape of a tall tower.
“All the way here, the danger doesn’t seem to be as great as imagined.”
“But this is also with the help of the unyielding will enchantment and the external blessing of the stone lion that wards off evil and punishes it that all evils are inviolable.”
“If it were any other cultivator, even a Foundation Establishment, after coming to this place, they would have felt the mental pressure and divine soul burden brought about by the invasion of evil, wouldn’t they?”
The Knight of Fire memorized the high-altitude vision in his mind.
Immediately, he directly leapt down and landed in the ruins of a high tower.
With a sweep of his divine sense, he immediately saw the storehouse from within that was only half collapsed.
Taking out the specially prepared large storage bag.
Knight of Fire Alvin entered the ruins and began to pocket things.
Just like that, he circled around the edge of the large pit.
The storage bag brought by the Knight of Fire who had harvested a lot was already 80% full.
Among them, a large portion was various collections of books.
This surprised Su Ping, even if most of these were duplicates.
It should also be able to fulfill the minimum requirements of a great library.
Just as Su Ping was happily planning to find the next target for the Knight of Fire.
He suddenly sensed an immortal boat flying overhead.
And from the direction that this immortal boat flew off in, he judged that it should be the location of that Mo Family Manor.
Although it can only be considered a guess.
But …… this side exorcist Yun Kong discovered the basement and destroyed the Buddha statue.
This side has immortal boat so rush to run over.
Also too much coincidence a little bit right?
After all, that place was a place surrounded by evil qi.
Even the immortal boat caravan of a large business alliance would choose to go around it instead of going through that airspace to increase the risk.
However, with such a small immortal boat plus the maneuvering power of a small cultivation family …… how did he dare?
Wait, it seems like this illusion of Yun Kong still looks like a late stage Qi Practitioner?
Well …… that would be understandable!
