However, because many mystical masters, gods, and a small number of mortals come here to hunt for treasures, the Ghost Market has gradually become a special place.
Meng Po led Qin Yune into the ghost market. Even though what had just happened didn't affect Qin Yune's mood, she was even more excited.
Shortly after they left, Master Xuan was taken away.
As Meng Po walked with her, she explained, "There aren't many good things at the entrance here. The good things are all inside. But if you see something you like while you're browsing, you can still buy it. The things sold here all have some merit. But the good stuff is usually held by a few shops inside."
"In the Ghost Market, you can buy anything, whether it's intelligence, human lives, talismans, weapons, elixirs, or even some celestial items, as long as you have money. There are also auctions here every quarter, and any of those items are incredibly valuable and highly sought after. However, ordinary people can't get in. They will invite qualified buyers to attend based on various assessments, and those who can attend need to have over 100 million ghost coins in assets."
Verified capital exceeds 100 million!
Upon hearing this, Qin Yunie's eyes lit up immediately. "This auction is amazing!"
Meng Po nodded: "It's alright, because the items sold at the auction are worth at least tens of millions or hundreds of millions. If you don't have enough money, there's no point in coming to the auction."
Qin Yune thought for a moment and asked, "Does the Ghost Market only accept ghost money?"
Meng Po smiled and replied, "Yes, ghost money is the common currency here in the Ghost Market. If you want other currencies, you need to go to the currency exchange in the Ghost Market to exchange them for ghost money."
"The most sought-after items in the Ghost Market are talismans, weapons, pills, and intelligence. If you want to buy talismans, the best place is Willow Shade Shop to the south. If you want to buy weapons, there's a shop in the Ghost Market called Sword Feather Pavilion, which has all kinds of weapons, and the quality is excellent. If you're unsure what you want to buy, you can check out the Treasure Pavilion; it has a little bit of everything, and while the quality isn't top-notch, it's still much better than outside. Most pills can be bought at the Ghost Market's pharmacies, but the quality varies. If you want high-grade pills, you'll have to wait for the auctions."
"These are the most popular items to buy in the Ghost Market, because people, Xuan Masters, and even some immortals from the divine realm all buy talismans. Especially Xuan Masters, many of them go on missions. If they can draw the talismans themselves, that's fine, but if they don't have enough spiritual power to draw them, they will basically come here to buy some talismans before setting off. The talisman I gave you last time was bought from the Treasure Pavilion. Good talisman masters are in high demand everywhere."
How could Qin Yunie forget that it was the first time she had received something beyond her comprehension, and the first time she had received such a gift?
"However, this depends a lot on talent. Those with high talent can learn it quickly, while those with poor talent can only barely draw the lowest level of talisman after eight or ten years."
"Speaking of this, I have to mention a shop in the Ghost Market called the CIA. It's the intelligence I just mentioned. No matter what kind of information it is, whether it's from the mortal world, the underworld, or the divine realm, as long as you have money, you can buy it, and the price is quite high. But any information you buy from them is guaranteed to be true. However, there is a drawback: they sell information based on their mood. If they're in a good mood, they'll sell it to you, but if they're in a bad mood and you offend them, it will be difficult to enter the Ghost Market again."
Meng Po leaned close to Qin Yune's ear and whispered, "The owner behind this shop is said to be a person, but this has never been confirmed, and no one has ever seen this owner."
Qin Yune asked in shock, "Huh? How does the transaction go?"
"They only have one employee. Every time a customer comes in, they write down what they want to buy, and the employee will take the message in. If the employee comes out with a wooden box within an hour, the transaction is complete. If they come out empty-handed, it means the owner doesn't want to do the business."
Qin Yunie hesitated, then said, "This boss has quite a personality. Isn't he afraid the other party will smash up his shop?"
Meng Po chuckled, "You think this kind of thing hasn't happened before? There was a time when someone was so dissatisfied that he caused a scene at the CIA and almost killed a shop assistant. However, as soon as he stepped out of the CIA, before he even left the Ghost Market, he vanished into thin air. His family had some influence, and they searched everywhere but couldn't find any trace of him. In the end, the matter was dropped, and there's been no news of him since. After that, it happened a few more times, but without exception, they all disappeared into thin air."
Upon hearing this, Qin Yune's eyes widened in surprise. "Disappeared?"
"Strange, isn't it? There's something even stranger: this shop has been around for over a hundred years, but the owner's temperament hasn't changed at all. Because of this, some people speculate that the owner might be a demon. How could a normal person live that long? But it's highly unlikely that a demon would come to the Ghost Market."
Qin Yune asked curiously, "Why?"
Meng Po explained, "Because one of the largest shops in the Ghost Market is owned by the gods, they have a certain degree of influence in the Ghost Market. The gods and demons are sworn enemies, so it's impossible for them to allow demons to come here. Therefore, it's more likely that it's a human."
Qin Yunie nodded thoughtfully.
He then asked, "Then why couldn't it be another race? Gods? Demons? Even ghosts could be one."
"The gods are all proud, and they would disdain such cover-up tactics. As for the demons, if they were to open it, they would need a large amount of concealing grass. Demons have a special smell that they need to cover up with concealing grass, but concealing grass is difficult to grow and is worth a fortune. Generally, not many demons would buy it to cover up their smell unless there are special circumstances, so they generally do not leave the demon realm."
"As for the ghosts you mentioned, that is indeed possible, but there aren't many in the underworld that can make them disappear without anyone noticing. King Yama is one of them. Most people who know how to do things will leave some clues, and they can't escape King Yama's eyes."
As Meng Po spoke, she saw the words "Treasure Pavilion" written in large characters on the sign ahead. "The Treasure Pavilion is just ahead. Go in and see if there's anything you want to buy."
Upon hearing this, Qin Yunie also looked over and immediately spotted the conspicuous signboard of the Hundred Treasures Pavilion, quickening his pace.
She quickly followed Meng Po's footsteps into the Treasure Pavilion.
The decoration of Baibaoge was exceptionally magnificent; it wouldn't be an exaggeration to say it was built with money.
If I had to use one word to describe it, it would probably be "blindingly bright".
Qin Yune's first thought upon standing in the Treasure Pavilion was, "Wow, this owner is really rich!"
She glanced around casually; there were many things, and it was immediately obvious that the things at the entrance were not in the same league as those here.
No wonder Meng Po said all the good things are in here.
