Not until the young man was beaten to death did the villagers stop with satisfaction and look at Su Jinyue and Zhan Yihan with gratitude.
"Master! Thank you!"
"If it weren't for the two immortal masters this time, we would have really fallen for his trick."
"Fortunately, the Immortal Master arrived in time, otherwise my daughter would have been used by him to practice martial arts. Thank you, Immortal Master!"
"Master! Please come to our house to rest for a while and have something to eat." The villagers said one after another.
"No." Su Jinyue and Zhan Yihan shook their heads.
Zhan Yihan waved his hand, and the young man on the ground disappeared instantly. A storage ring flew into his hand. He squeezed it, and the storage ring shattered, and the things inside fell to the ground. Naturally, they would not want the things of such evil cultivators.
"You two divide these things up," Zhan Yihan said. The young man's storage ring contained quite a few items, including some fairy stones, fairy herbs, and medicinal pills. As for the cultivation technique he was practicing, it naturally didn't need to be there.
An old man stepped out from the crowd and said, "Master, we don't want these. Please take them. You brought us rain and saved us. We have nothing else to repay you."
"You just need to tell us how to get to the fairyland." Zhan Yihan said.
"Master, just keep walking west along the woods outside the village," the old man said. He had once walked out of that forest with his parents when he was a child. The world beyond was the true immortal realm, but unfortunately, he lacked spiritual roots, so even if he reached the immortal realm, he would be sent back.
Zhan Yihan and Su Jinyue nodded and walked towards the forest outside the village.
The villagers hurriedly followed and only stopped after they sent Su Jinyue and Zhan Yihan into the forest, watching them gradually go away.
The forest is vast and boundless. Because one end is connected to where mortals live, the entire forest is a no-fly zone. In addition, the terrain of the forest is complex, so Su Jinyue and Zhan Yihan can only choose to walk.
It took them more than a month to get out of the forest. As soon as they walked out of the forest, a strong fairy spirit immediately hit them in the face, forming an extreme contrast with the forest behind them.
He released his spiritual sense and scanned the distance, only to see a small town about thirty or forty miles away.
The town is very prosperous, with monks bustling about, but the monks' cultivation levels are generally not high. After a rough look around, I found that the monk with the highest cultivation level is only in the middle stage of the celestial immortal.
Walking into the town, I saw stalls on both sides of the not very wide street. The fairy herbs and refining materials sold on the stalls were all of the lowest grade. However, even so, there were many cultivators stopping to inquire about the prices.
"Bang!" a sound came.
Su Jinyue and Zhan Yihan looked up and saw a cultivator in the late stage of Sanxian kicking over an alchemy furnace on a stall.
"You use this kind of broken thing to fool me. Don't you want to live?" The monk who kicked over the alchemy furnace glared at the stall owner fiercely.
"I'm not kidding you. I really found this in the ruins," the stall owner explained anxiously. He'd been out training that time and heard a ruin was about to open, so he'd gone with everyone else. He hadn't expected it to contain anything but a furnace, aside from some low-level fairy herbs.
Su Jinyue's eyes lit up when she saw the alchemy furnace. While it couldn't compare to her Shennong Ding, it was still a ninth-grade, top-grade immortal artifact. If she bought it, she wouldn't need the Shennong Ding to refine elixirs in front of others. The alchemy furnace was also an immortal artifact, but refining it wasn't as easy as other immortal artifacts. It required an elixir embryo, a material formed in the furnace after years of refining. The older the elixir embryo, the better the alchemy furnace.
Walking forward, Su Jinyue bent down to pick up the fallen alchemy furnace, looked at it and looked at the stall owner, "I want this alchemy furnace. How much fairy stones does it cost?"
Upon hearing this, the stall owner immediately revealed a surprised smile and stretched out a finger, "One hundred medium-grade fairy stones." If the other party thought it was too expensive, he would have no problem making it cheaper.
"I want it," Su Jinyue said. Buying this alchemy furnace was definitely a great bargain.
Zhan Yihan took out a storage bag and handed it to the stall owner.
"Wait a minute, I want this alchemy furnace." The monk who had kicked over the alchemy furnace earlier said. Since someone wants it, it means this alchemy furnace is not bad.
Su Jinyue ignored the cultivator and put away the alchemy furnace.
"I want the alchemy furnace. Why are you putting it away?" Seeing Su Jinyue putting away the alchemy furnace, the cultivator frowned in displeasure.
Zhan Yihan paid the money and pulled Su Jinyue forward.
The cultivator quickly dodged and stood in front of Su Jinyue and Zhan Yihan. "Are you deaf? I want that alchemy furnace. Hurry and take it out, or don't blame me for being rude."
"We've already paid, the alchemy furnace is ours," Su Jinyue said calmly. He was the one who gave up the opportunity, so who could he blame?
"Everything has a first come, first served order. I haven't decided whether to take it or not, how dare you get ahead of me? Aren't you bullying me?" the cultivator insisted. The more the other party refused to give it up, the more valuable the alchemy furnace was.
Su Jinyue and Zhan Yihan didn't bother to pay attention to each other and walked around them to the front. The more you pay attention to this kind of person, the more entangled they will become.
The cultivator once again blocked Su Jinyue and Zhan Yihan's way, looking determined not to give up. "You can't leave if you don't take out the alchemy furnace today."
"What happened?" At this moment, a low voice sounded.
The cultivator, upon seeing who the newcomer was, was immediately filled with surprise. "Sir, I just found an alchemy furnace, but before I could even trade it, they snatched it away. I asked them to give it up, but they refused." In Fushan Town, the mayor reigned supreme. Whether cultivators in Fushan or outsiders, they all obeyed him. He happened to have a connection to the mayor, being his nephew, which was why he dared to act so tyrannically in Fushan Town.
The mayor nodded subtly, glanced at Su Jinyue and Zhan Yihan, a flicker of surprise in his eyes. He turned to the stall owner and asked, "Is that so?" He could tell that Su Jinyue was at the early stage of the Celestial Immortal realm. As for Zhan Yihan, he couldn't quite tell. However, from the aura emanating from him, he could tell that his cultivation was definitely higher than his. But why would a cultivator of this caliber come to their tiny Fushan Town?
Fushan Town is located in a remote area, and the spiritual energy is obviously much thinner than in other places. High-level cultivators would not bother to come to such a place.
