Chen Luo discovered he could scavenge the minds of the dead.
So he went to a graveyard and scavenge the brain of a deceased Great Emperor, figuring he’d borrow it for a bit.
While other...
Chapter 210: Grudges
"Some time ago, a relic was discovered in the southern waters, and someone dug out a secret technique for forming an elixir inside it." Seeing the hot scene below, Master Yinfeng said casually.
"Secret technique of forming a pill?"
"It's hard to confirm whether it's true or not, but I heard that the secret method can help people condense the seeds of the elixir. Because of this incident, the prices of all magic weapons related to water repellent have increased several times."
The news about Master Yinfeng was also hearsay and has not been verified.
"Southern Sea. Are there many ruins there?"
It was the first time that Chen Luo heard news from farther away, and he couldn't help but feel curious.
He hadn't even visited all the evil cultivation areas yet, let alone places further away. Compared to these old demons, Chen Luo was still too young and had little experience, so naturally his experience was not as good as these people.
While the two were chatting, the water-repellent beads had already been bought by someone.
The scene became more lively afterwards. Many people took out the things they wanted to exchange. Among them, Chen Luo saw several treasures he had never seen before, but he did not exchange any of them.
"Everyone should be very clear about the effect of the Deliverance Pill. Pills that can suppress inner demons are also useful for forming pills."
Finally, the first good thing appeared on the field.
As soon as it was taken out, five foundation-building cultivators bid for it.
"Five thousand middle-grade spirit stones."
"Eight thousand middle-grade spirit stones."
"A bottle of spiritual essence."
"Inheritance of a first-level formation master."
"Second-level Talisman Master inheritance."
The bidding of the five people made the scene heated up all of a sudden, especially the person at the back, the things he bid were very expensive. Whether it was the inheritance of a first-level formation master or a second-level talisman master, they were things that could create a cultivation family and serve as the foundation of inheritance.
Not to mention the spiritual marrow, this thing is a treasure of a higher level than the spiritual stone and is a spiritual material that is priceless.
"Spiritual Essence, wow, you are indeed from Black Rock City, your confidence is different."
"People from Black Rock City?"
Chen Luo took a look at the three people, two men and one woman, all wearing magical instruments that concealed their auras, so their true appearances could not be seen by the divine sense. This was the same as most people, and Chen Luo himself also wore something similar. In the eyes of others, he was a gloomy and withered middle-aged man.
"Spiritual marrow is a thing that is produced in only one place in the entire southwestern region, and that is Black Stone City." Master Yinfeng explained.
"Because this resource is prohibited from circulation in the market, it cannot be purchased from outside."
The Southwest Region is the name given by the cultivators in the evil land to the area where they live, just like the area where the three major sects of Shenhu Xianmen are located is called the Seven Kingdoms Region by them. These are all names given by others.
As the largest force in the southwest region, Black Stone City naturally controls a lot of monopoly resources, and spiritual marrow is one of them.
After Master Yinfeng reminded him, Chen Luo noticed that in addition to the Five Eyes Monastery Master, there were two great monks who had completed their foundation building. The two had a mysterious aura. One of them was the monk from Black Stone City who had just offered the spiritual essence, and the other was a woman. The woman had a cold face and sat cross-legged in the front seat without saying a word. She didn't say a word throughout the entire exchange, nor did she buy anything. Even the appearance of the Deliverance Pill didn't attract her attention.
It seemed like this person came here specifically for something.
"Spiritual sword body, this woman is a sword cultivator."
When Chen Luo looked over, the mummy's brain in his mind suddenly gave a response.
Psychic sword body?
Chen Luo subconsciously mobilized his external brain, and the external brain with the best memory quickly gave feedback.
'The Spiritual Sword Body is a very rare sword physique. Sword cultivators with this physique have a bright sword heart and wisdom. Their sword skills improve rapidly. In their hands, the power of the same sword will be several times that of others. The top sword cultivators basically have similar physiques.'
"Fairy Bamboo Sword, this woman is one of the most untouchable women in the southwest region. She has already completed her foundation building and, like Fellow Daoist Han the Gu Demon, she occupies a second-level spiritual vein." Noticing Chen Luo's gaze, Master Yinfeng next to him said.
This Bamboo Sword Fairy was one of the few people present who did not hide her outfit.
The Deliverance Pill was exchanged and eventually taken by the Black Stone City monk who possessed the Spirit Essence. The remaining people all showed regret, but no one dared to have any extra thoughts. This was the Five Eyes Temple, and no one wanted to offend a willow monster who had reached the Perfect Foundation Establishment, not to mention that the person who bought the Spirit Essence was not weak either. It was impossible for a normal person to offend two great monks who had reached the Perfect Foundation Establishment at once.
"A second-level talisman master's inheritance, if you want it, you can make an offer."
The cultivator who had just failed to buy the elixir took out the Talisman Master's inheritance and sold it at a price. The Talisman Master's inheritance can be copied and is not particularly valuable in nature. It's just that some people have monopolized these inheritances, making this kind of knowledge priceless.
Chen Luo became interested.
Among the four arts of cultivating immortals, he is not even at the second level as a talisman master yet, lacking the corresponding knowledge inheritance. The talisman master in his mind can only draw some first-level talismans.
"Seven thousand middle-grade spirit stones."
Someone made an offer.
Among the four arts of cultivating immortals, the talisman master is the cheapest, but that is only relative to the other three professions. From the perspective of ordinary people, the talisman master is a high-ranking figure, and is the inheritance that many casual cultivator families dream of.
"Eight thousand middle-grade spirit stones."
"One thousand five hundred high-grade spirit stones!"
Before Chen Luo could even bid, the price soared all the way to top-grade spirit stones.
"Two thousand high-quality spirit stones."
Chen Luo looked at the inheritance left to him by Elder An and Brother Han, and offered a price. The Ghost Master next to him looked at Chen Luo in surprise. He didn't expect Chen Luo to be interested in the inheritance of the Talisman Master.
Could it be that he is a talisman master?
"Two thousand two hundred high-grade spirit stones!"
The monk who made the previous bid turned his head and glanced at Chen Luo, with a hint of coldness in his eyes.
He had already called out the transaction price just now, but he didn't expect Chen Luo to intervene and prevent him from getting what he wanted.
“Three thousand!”
Chen Luo was too lazy to even look at him. He always believed that spirit stones could only be considered real spirit stones if they were spent and transformed into one's own strength. Otherwise, they were worthless.
As for threats, come on!
"Three thousand and one."
"four thousand!"
With the inheritance from his two elder brothers, Chen Luo was quite generous.
When the price reached this level, most people backed out. This was a high-grade spirit stone. Four thousand high-grade spirit stones could buy something of a higher level. A mere talisman master inheritance was not worth it in the eyes of many foundation-building cultivators.
This is the difference brought about by different perspectives. In the eyes of foundation-building cultivators, the inheritance of a second-level talisman master is not particularly difficult to obtain.
If it is from the perspective of a Qi Refining cultivator, the result will be different. However, a Qi Refining cultivator cannot afford so many spirit stones.
"snort!"
The old man in black snorted coldly and gave up the bidding.
The monk who was selling the talisman master's inheritance also showed a hint of joy on his face. Just when he was about to agree to the exchange, a voice suddenly sounded.
"I'll offer 10,000 high-quality spirit stones!"
As soon as the price was called out, everyone's attention turned to it, even the Bamboo Sword Fairy took a look.
At the end of the exchange meeting, a handsome young man looked at Chen Luo with a ferocious look. Of course, his gaze was mainly on Master Yinfeng who was beside Chen Luo.
In his opinion, this was the first step in his revenge.
Strike the enemy!
Those who are with Master Yinfeng are all his enemies.
Don't you want to buy it? I won't let you buy it. Even if you raise the price, I can make you lose a lot of spiritual stones.
"Old ghost Yinfeng, you killed 132 people in my master's family. I will settle this grudge with you sooner or later." Noticing everyone's gazes, the handsome young man felt like the protagonist in the spotlight. He was born to be like this!
"I'll charge you some interest this time!"
Chen Luo turned his eyes away and looked at the man as if he were an idiot.
The inheritance of a second-level talisman master was priced at 10,000 high-grade spirit stones. In his opinion, this person was just a fool. No wonder Master Yinfeng didn't take him seriously. A fool with this kind of personality would never survive to build a foundation if he didn't have someone protecting him.
"Then congratulations to this fellow Taoist."
Chen Luo replied indifferently, with no intention of raising the price at all.
This scene made the handsome young man's face change slightly. His original intention was to cheat the friend of Yinfeng Old Ghost and stop after he raised the price once. He didn't expect this guy to be so cowardly. A powerful man in the late stage of foundation building was unwilling to even give up 10,000 high-grade spirit stones.
When he thought about how he had spent ten thousand high-quality spirit stones to buy a second-level talisman master's inheritance, he felt depressed.
He is not a talisman master, why would he buy this thing!
"This kid is looking for death."
Master Yinfeng, who was sitting next to Chen Luo, had a gloomy expression on his face.
He knew that Shi Jun was looking for trouble with him, but he never took it seriously. Because this guy was lucky and had a master who had completed the foundation building. There were only a dozen masters who had completed the foundation building in the entire southwest region, and the seven strongest of them occupied seven second-level spiritual veins. Shi Jun's master was one of them, on par with the master of the Five Eyes Temple and the Gu Demon Han Jiu.
Master Yinfeng once attacked Shi Jun, but was stopped by Shi Jun's master. He almost lost his life at that time. After escaping, he no longer paid attention to this boy because he discovered a secret.
Just because he doesn't take action doesn't mean Shi Jun will acquiesce to a settlement.
Judging from the other party's behavior, he will definitely come to seek revenge on him when he improves his cultivation in the future. Instead of dragging the trouble to the end, it is better to do it simply.
Let’s go all out and send him off!
At worst, I can take refuge in Black Stone City and serve as a dog for the Black Stone Patriarch. If that doesn't work, leaving the southwest region and running to the South China Sea is also an option.
Master Yinfeng was filled with murderous intent and made a decision secretly.
"As long as you have a plan in mind, fellow Daoist."
Chen Luo glanced at the other person and gave a reminder.
This was the other party's trouble, and he didn't want to get involved. The relationship between him and Master Yinfeng had not reached that point.
"I originally didn't want to pay any attention to this kid. He will die sooner or later anyway. The leader of the Demon Clan is not a good person. None of the disciples chosen by him will have a good ending." When mentioning the master behind Shi Jun, a trace of fear flashed in Master Yinfeng's eyes.
"who?"
Chen Luo was stunned for a moment, and thought of an old friend with whom he had a grudge.
When he killed the soul-refining cultivator Lin Feng, he also killed a female cultivator named Yue Qingping. The Yue family to which that female cultivator was born was wiped out, and the woman called two fellow foundation-building cultivators to come and seek revenge, but they were all killed by him on the way.
Afterwards, an old man cursed him from a distance. That old ghost still had a score to settle with him. It was just that he was not strong enough yet so he did not come to him.
