【Chapter 244】To the Underground City
【Chapter 244】To the Underground City
Upon hearing this, Nangong Chenyu also picked up the wine glass and took a sip. The rich aroma of wine exploded in his mouth, and in an instant he seemed to see a sea of stars.
Unfortunately, the sea of stars disappeared in less than a second.
"It really contains a trace of star power." His eyes fell on the wine jar, and he saw the words "Star Dew" carved on the jar: "Star Dew, it really lives up to its name."
"If I'm not mistaken, this star dew should be brewed from the star Tianyuan fruit."
Ye Yisheng had taken a Starry Sky Yuan Fruit when he was in the foundation-building stage, and he still remembers the taste of the Starry Sky Yuan Fruit clearly.
Thinking of something, he asked Nangong Chenyu: "Ah Yu, do you think if I drink enough Star Dew, will it have the effect of refining my body?"
If it has the effect of refining the body, they can spend spirit stones to ask a hundred or eighty people to help buy it.
Nangong Chenyu shook his head and laughed: "Star Dew is indeed good for the body, but it is not good enough to achieve the effect of body refining."
"Yes, if the Star Dew has the effect of refining the body, why would it be sold in the Jiuxian Pavilion?" Ye Yishen gave up the idea of asking people to buy it.
The two of them started eating the dishes on the table.
In dishes prepared by spiritual chefs, impurities in each ingredient are removed very cleanly, and most of the spiritual energy contained in them is well preserved.
When monks eat it, they don't have to worry about impurities accumulating in their bodies. On the contrary, it can increase their spiritual energy.
However, there are very few cultivators who can achieve enlightenment through cooking, and the level of spiritual chefs is generally not high. Therefore, the higher the level of cultivation, the less spiritual energy is increased.
This is also the reason why the cultivation levels of the monks who go to the restaurant are generally at an intermediate level. Because monks with low cultivation levels cannot afford it, and it is useless for monks with high cultivation levels to eat it.
For this meal, Nangong Chenyu and Ye Yishen spent a total of 1,318 high-quality spirit stones, and this was a 40% discount.
Most people can’t afford it.
After the two of them paid the bill, the waiter took them out of Jiuxian Pavilion.
After crossing a street, the two followed the waiter to a secluded alley. The waiter pointed to the wall in front and said, "The entrance to the black market is right there."
Whether with their naked eyes or their spiritual senses, all they saw was a wall.
However, based on the direction pointed by the waiter, Ye Yishen guessed that the entrance to the black market should be in the middle of the wall.
A green light flashed in Nangong Chenyu's right eye. When he looked at the wall again, he saw that the wall on the right had turned into a dark passage.
Apparently that was the entrance to the black market that the waiter had mentioned.
“Only cultivators above the Nascent Soul stage can enter. I’ll go back first.” The waiter bowed to the two of them.
"Thank you."
Nangong Chenyu gave the waiter two more medium-grade spirit stones.
"Thank you for the reward, senior." After receiving another spiritual stone, the waiter smiled so much that his teeth were showing.
Although Ye Yishen did not see the entrance to the black market, based on Nangong Chenyu's behavior, he guessed that Nangong Chenyu might have seen the entrance to the black market.
Sure enough, the next moment he heard Nangong Chenyu say: "Let's go!"
"good."
Ye Yishen walked towards the wall with Nangong Chenyu with anticipation for the black market.
As they were walking, Nangong Chenyu suddenly reached out and grabbed Ye Yisheng: "What's wrong with you that you want to bang your head against the wall?"
After being pulled back a step, Ye Yisheng came to his senses and pointed at the wall in front of him: "Isn't the entrance to the black market here?"
Nangong Chenyu held his forehead with his hand: "The entrance to the black market is over there." As he spoke, he pulled Ye Yisheng a few steps to the right: "This is the entrance to the black market."
Ye Yisheng: “…” So, he misjudged.
Nangong Chenyu couldn't help but give Ye Yisheng a slap: "What were you thinking about so intently just now?"
Although he was walking to the side, Ye Yishen was still walking straight forward. If he hadn't acted in time, Ye Yishen would have crashed into the wall.
"I was just wondering what the black market is like."
Recalling the scene where Ye Yisheng almost hit the wall just now, Nangong Chenyu couldn't help laughing: "If you encounter something you don't know in the future, just ask me."
"Of course. Once is enough for such a mistake. Fortunately, there are only two of us here, otherwise I would be laughed at."
After Ye Yisheng finished speaking, he realized that someone was laughing, and quickly added: "Except you, of course. I'm happy to make you laugh."
He looked at Nangong Chenyu with burning eyes.
"Even if you want to make me laugh, you don't have to bang your head against the wall. Just..." Nangong Chenyu pointed to his face: "Just kiss me."
After failing to tease someone, Ye Yisheng was teased instead. He blushed and changed the subject: "Do you still want to go to the black market?"
"go."
Nangong Chenyu held Ye Yisheng's hand tightly and pulled him straight towards the wall. Just when the two were about to hit the wall, they went straight through it.
The next moment, the vision before their eyes suddenly darkened.
Not feeling any danger, the two closed their eyes and adjusted themselves to the light inside. When they opened their eyes again, they could see the surrounding scene clearly in the darkness.
In the dark corridor, ten meters away from them, there was a white-haired old man sitting in a rocking chair with his eyes closed.
When the two walked up to the old man, he suddenly opened his eyes, pointed at the black cloak beside him and asked, "Do you want a cloak that can block the prying of the divine consciousness of the Tribulation Crossing Stage?"
Nangong Chenyu asked cautiously: "How many spirit stones per piece?"
"Not expensive, ten high-grade spirit stones for one incense stick; twenty high-grade spirit stones for two incense sticks, and so on."
"Ten high-quality spirit stones for one stick of incense." Ye Yisheng repeated, "So, these cloaks are not for sale?"
The old man stroked his beard and said, "For rent, not for sale."
"Senior, is the incense stick you mentioned the one that spontaneously combusts normally?" Nangong Chenyu intuitively felt that the incense stick the other party was talking about was a spell, and "pop" a stick of incense arrived.
Then when they come out, they will have to stick as many incense sticks as the other party has said.
The old man who wanted to trick the two of them: “…” I didn’t expect to meet someone who knew the tricks!
The old man would not admit it when his thoughts were revealed: "Of course it was a stick of incense that spontaneously combusted normally."
"One stick of incense, that means two quarters of an hour?"
"Yes, two quarters of an hour." The old man's turbid eyes flashed with a gleam.
Nangong Chenyu said "Oh", exchanged a glance with Ye Yisheng, and then said: "We don't need cloaks."
After saying that, he pulled Ye Yisheng and walked forward quickly.
Old man: “…”
Looking at the backs of the two people, the old man cursed: "Alas! The younger generations nowadays are getting more and more unreasonable. They don't even know how to show respect. The world is going downhill and people's hearts are no longer the same as before!"
After hearing his words, Nangong Chenyu and Ye Yisheng walked faster.
[Ayu, aren’t you afraid of angering that old man? 】Ye Yishen asked Nangong Chenyu through voice transmission.
[If I'm not mistaken, he should be the Grand Elder of Xuan Ji Sect. 】
Just now when the old man was stroking his beard, Nangong Chenyu noticed with his sharp eyes that the space ring he wore on his finger was exactly the same style as the space rings worn by the Ninth Elder and the Deputy Sect Master.
It’s just that the space rings worn by the Ninth Elder and the Deputy Sect Leader have the word “Ji” engraved on them, while the space ring worn by the old man has the word “Xuan” engraved on it.
Xuan, Ji, Xuan Ji Sect.
Obviously, the space rings worn by the three people were distributed uniformly by the Xuan Ji Sect. Considering the old man’s cultivation level at the middle stage of the tribulation, it is not difficult to guess his identity.
[So he was testing us just now?] 】
[Great minds think alike.] 】
Ye Yisheng quickly figured out the reason why the old man tested them: [It seems that our cultivation level has improved too quickly and caught the attention of the sect’s supreme elder. Do you think that the sect’s top leaders would——】
Although Ye Yisheng didn't say the rest of the words, Nangong Chenyu understood what he meant.
[I don’t care, I’m just worried about you.] 】Ye Yishen completely forgot about his spiritual roots, and his heart was only thinking about Nangong Chenyu being the Azure Dragon.
Nangong Chenyu held Ye Yisheng's hand and interlocked their fingers.
[Don't worry, judging from the attitude of the Supreme Elder just now, he has no ill will towards us. As long as there are upright people in the sect's upper echelons, we will be safe. 】
[If the top leaders of Xuan Ji Sect are not moral, the worst that can happen is that we leave Xuan Ji Sect and develop ourselves somewhere else. 】
Nangong Chenyu didn't want to leave Xuan Ji Sect unless it was absolutely necessary. As long as he doesn't reveal his identity, it will be difficult for human cultivators to discover his identity.
On the contrary, the higher the level of the demon clan, the more they can sense the blood pressure.
If he did not have the matching strength, he would not be able to suppress the big monster of the monster clan. Once the identity is exposed, it is very likely that the big monsters will eat it.
Feeling the warmth in his hand, Ye Yisheng felt relieved. "If we really encounter an insurmountable danger, don't stand in front of me. I have a life-saving method left by my mother, which can help me kill my opponent. 】
[Okay, then I will rely on you for protection from now on.] 】What my eldest brother said was true. They are suitable for living off others.
As the two were talking, they suddenly felt dizzy and a familiar feeling of dizziness came over them.
Then, the two disappeared on the spot.
The old man who wanted to continue lying there could not help but let out a light "Huh?" "I didn't expect these two juniors to be teleported to the underground trading city the first time they came to the black market."
His words echoed in the corridor, but Nangong Chenyu and Ye Yisheng, who had disappeared, naturally did not hear them.
When the two of them saw the surrounding scene clearly again, they were stunned on the spot.
On the busy streets, there are all kinds of "people" coming and going. Some of them have red hair, some have white hair, some have blue hair, some have black air coming out of their bodies, and some are even floating...
Nangong Chenyu was stunned for just a moment, and then his expression returned to normal. After all, he had seen demon cultivators, devil cultivators, and ghost cultivators in the Xuanwu Realm, so he didn't find them new.
It was the first time that Ye Yishen saw so many different types of "people" that a pair of eyes were not enough.
However, many of the "people" here had stronger auras than him, so even though he found it novel, he did not lose his mind and deliberately stare at someone.
Judging from the surrounding buildings, this place looks like a city. It is also an underground city, and the light comes from the luminous stones inlaid on various buildings.
[This place doesn't look like the black market in Paradise City.] Be careful and play it by ear. Nangong Chenyu sent a message to Ye Yisheng and took him to follow the crowd in one direction.
After walking a few steps, Ye Yisheng saw a somewhat familiar face in the crowd.
