Chapter 118: Sea Market

The sky meets the cloud waves, connecting to the morning mist; the galaxy wants to turn, and a thousand sails dance. It's as if my dream soul has returned to the Emperor's place. Hearing the heavenly language, I diligently ask where I belong.

I report that the road is long and sigh at the dusk; learning poetry is in vain, even with startling lines. The ninety-thousand-mile wind roc is just rising. Wind, do not stop, blow the reed boat to the Three Mountains!

Ten days after leaving Thunder Light Island, Zhang Xingyu returned to the place where he had originally parted ways with the little white dragon Ao Bai and the mermaid princess A-Xiang.

However, it had been over thirty days since he entered the Sea Ruins alone, and the little white dragon Ao Bai and Princess Yuxiang A-Xiang had already left.

Forget it, they must have thought I was dead.

If there is fate, we will always be able to meet in the future.

Now, the most important thing is to find a place to ask for information and try to find a path back.

"Buddy, is there any place nearby where I can buy and sell things?" Zhang Xingyu stopped a black fish demon and asked.

The black fish demon looked at him and said softly: "One thousand miles to the east, there is a Gold and Silver Island, and there is a market on the island where you can trade things. However, for a little sea worm like you, it would probably take you several years to swim there."

"Thank you, brother, for the guidance," Zhang Xingyu nodded to express his gratitude.

Who knew that the black fish demon would roll its pair of black eyeballs and say to him: "Little sea worm, I also happen to have business to go to Gold and Silver Island. If you are willing to pay to hire me, I can take you to Gold and Silver Island."

"How much money?" Zhang Xingyu asked.

"One hundred demon coins, no bargaining," the black fish demon said.

"Too expensive. One demon coin at most," Zhang Xingyu bargained.

"Sea worm brother, it's a thousand-mile sea route. One is too little, at least ten demon coins," the black fish demon said.

"Deal," Zhang Xingyu nodded and agreed.

The agreement was reached, and the black fish demon's attitude toward Zhang Xingyu became very enthusiastic.

He said loudly to Zhang Xingyu on his back: "Sea worm brother, you've found the right person this time, and your money will be well spent. I, Wutuo, am a famous swimming expert in this water area, and my speed is particularly fast. Within ten days, I will definitely be able to send you to Gold and Silver Island. Let me tell you, in this sea area, there is nothing that I, Wutuo, don't know. For example, I calculate the eruption time of the Sea Ruin demon Qi very accurately. Ever since I gained intelligence at the age of one, I have been particularly smart..."

This black fish demon who called himself Wutuo was not only good at doing business but also a chatterbox.

Along the way, this guy chattered on and on, telling Zhang Xingyu about the situation of his ancestors for eighteen generations.

Zhang Xingyu also learned about some of the situations in this sea area from him.

It turned out that because this sea area was close to the Sea Ruins, it was considered a holy sea in the Sea Clan.

Every year, countless Sea Clan members come to the Sea Ruins for pilgrimage.

Therefore, Gold and Silver Island, a large island near the Sea Ruins, has become very prosperous.

Imitating the human world, a huge demon city was built on Gold and Silver Island.

There are markets, restaurants, inns, exchanges, and security teams to maintain order in the city.

Here, the Sea Clan can freely trade various items.

They can barter, or they can use demon coins for trading.

Demon coins are made from the scales of great demons.

According to the degree of rarity, demon coins are divided into three grades.

First-grade demon coins are made from the scales of eleventh to thirteenth-rank demonic beasts, second-grade demon coins are made from the scales of eighth to tenth-rank demonic beasts, and third-grade demon coins are made from the scales of fifth to seventh-rank demonic beasts.

One first-grade demon coin can be exchanged for one hundred second-grade demon coins, and one second-grade demon coin can be exchanged for one hundred third-grade demon coins.

Speaking of demon coins, Zhang Xingyu remembered the several boxes of scales he had looted from Mo Guang's cave dwelling.

At that time, he didn't know what they were for, so he just piled them in the corner of his storage bag and didn't bother with them.

Later, when he left Thunder Light Island, he put all these things into the ring given by the old dragon Ao Qing.

A thousand-mile sea route was not too long.

However, with the chatterbox Wutuo underneath him, this journey seemed particularly long.

Ten days later, an island shimmering with silver light appeared before Zhang Xingyu's eyes.

This island was not small, even larger than Money Island on the Ten Thousand Demon Sea.

There were several stone roads built crisscross on the island, and stone houses were built on both sides of the roads.

What kind of great demon city is this? It's clearly just a small fishing village.

No, for humans, this is a small fishing village.

However, for the Sea Clan, this is a prosperous great city.

The civilization of the Demon Clan naturally cannot be mentioned in the same breath as the human race.

On the stone road, one demonic beast after another walked stumbling forward.

Occasionally, guys with human heads and human bodies would walk by, and the demonic beasts on the road would immediately hide to the side.

According to Wutuo, those guys with human heads and human bodies were at least great demons of the fifth rank or higher.

After listening to Wutuo's introduction, Zhang Xingyu secretly despised them in his heart.

Are fifth-rank great demons very awesome?

In these days, the number of fifth-rank great demons I've wiped out is at least three or four.

In my storage bag, I have the body of a sea shrimp great demon.

After entering the city and walking forward for less than half a mile, Wutuo led Zhang Xingyu to sit down in a stone house.

"Sea worm brother, the human meat in this shop is the freshest, you must try it," Wutuo smacked his lips and said.

"What did you say? Human meat?" Zhang Xingyu was shocked and turned pale.

Wutuo looked at him in surprise: "Yeah. Human meat. It's all transported from the land. But they are all mortals. I heard from a senior that the meat of human cultivators is fragrant and delicious."

"You eat human meat?" Zhang Xingyu suppressed his churning stomach and asked.

"Yeah. Demons eat humans, humans eat demons. This is very normal!" Wutuo looked at Zhang Xingyu as if he were an idiot.

After a moment, he slapped his head and suddenly realized.

"This kid is just a tiny little sea worm, hasn't seen the world, so it's normal that he hasn't eaten human meat."

Just as he figured it out, Zhang Xingyu had already jumped out of the stone house impatiently.

The passing demonic beasts looked sideways one after another.

Beside the road, a tiny sea worm was vomiting and vomiting.

"Brother, what's wrong with you?" Wutuo ran over and asked.

Zhang Xingyu waved his tentacles: "Upset stomach, not feeling well."

Wutuo shook his head.

"You little sea worm, you have no appetite for good food. Such delicious human meat, yet you can't enjoy it."

Hearing this, Zhang Xingyu continued to vomit.

Only after he had vomited all the seawater in his stomach did he straighten up.

"Wutuo brother, this is your reward. Let's part ways here."

After speaking, Zhang Xingyu threw a demon coin to Wutuo and jumped forward step by step.

Wutuo took the demon coin and was stunned.

"Second-grade demon coin! He actually gave me a second-grade demon coin!"

This sea worm brother is generous and open-handed; hanging out with him, there will definitely be no shortage of money to spend.

Thinking of this, Wutuo quickly chased after Zhang Xingyu.

He jumped while shouting loudly: "Sea worm brother, wait for me, I'm here to help you."

After jumping two or three times, he caught up with Zhang Xingyu.

"Sea worm brother, where are you going? I am very familiar with this island, I will take you there," Wutuo said to Zhang Xingyu.

"How much money?" Zhang Xingyu asked.

"One demon coin, help you for ten days," Wutuo quoted the price.

"Deal," Zhang Xingyu nodded and jumped onto Wutuo's head.

From then on, there was one person and one demon, no, one worm and one fish, on Gold and Silver Island.

They hopped around on Gold and Silver Island every day, wandering everywhere. ===== CHAPTER 119 =====
