Chapter 1303

He rode Da Bai, flying leisurely through the air.

Rows of classical tall buildings, cultivator players everywhere made him envy intensely, his nose sore, wishing to run before the Creator God and demand why players of Blue Star No. 8 cannot ascend to such a world!

Can practicing magic be as powerful as cultivation?

Can flashy hair and skin colors compare to the pleasing sight of a black-haired, black-pupiled, fair-skinned maiden?

Can chaotic architectural styles compare to the shock of this surreal classical Eastern world?

Screw the Elemental Sea! From now on I'll settle here!

Xiao Feng thought to himself secretly.

But it was just a thought.

Even if Yuan Su Shen Yu is not good, it's where he raised three little maids and a foster daughter, many friends live there; in the short term he can't even go to the Myriad Heavens Battlefield, let alone pass the 1000-layer Myriad Heavens Pagoda, so he settled here.

"Big brother, can your magic still be used now?"

Da Bai flew on and suddenly asked a question.

Xiao Feng tried fire-element magic; the small fireball still works, but its power seems greatly reduced.

"The elemental concentration here is low, diluted by spiritual qi; power is only about 10% of normal, whereas Heavenly Dao system skills and source-attribute skills are more useful."

In the magic world practicing cultivation, power is at 100% normal level.

In the cultivation world practicing magic, one becomes crippled directly, strength left at only one-tenth.

Obviously the quality of heavenly-earth spiritual qi is slightly higher than magical elements, exerting a greater suppressive effect.

Fortunately he is not a pure mage, otherwise he'd probably have a headache by now.

After flying a while, Xiao Feng saw a magnificent tall building ahead, bearing a hundred-meter-wide sign: Pre-Heaven Market.

Below it small characters noted: Myriad Phenomena Trading House.

Seeing the name, it should be the official store of the Pre-Heaven Imperial City system, where various transactions can be conducted.

Coincidentally Xiao Feng wanted to familiarize himself with the local market economy, so he flew straight in.

The market does not allow mounts, so he had to put Da Bai away first.

The market is huge; inside flying is forbidden, only walking allowed, and players are quite crowded.

"Look, that Sword Cultivator is really handsome!"

"Ah, a person from the Hidden Dragon Continent, how come I've never seen him?"

"He has lots of HP and a high level; definitely a top expert!"

"One Sword Supreme… what an imposing name; anyone want to hit on him?"

Just after entering the market gate, Xiao Feng heard a chattering sound from beside him.

Glancing with the corner of his eye, he saw several female cultivators dressed in classical attire, flowing robes and cloud sleeves, hairpins adorned with jade, like figures stepping out of an ancient painting.

This attire is also far more beautiful than the style of Yuan Su Shen Yu.

"Hey, that Sword Cultivator~"

Just as Xiao Feng was secretly observing those female players, they had already decided to hit on him, banding together and quickening their pace toward him.

"Are the beauties calling me?"

Around there were many people; beside Xiao Feng happened to be another Sword Cultivator player, who upon seeing a group of beauties approach immediately put on a lecherous grin.

"None of your business, go cool off elsewhere!"

The leading female player "Yu Cixue" glared at that person, then changed expression and smiled at Xiao Feng: "Fellow Daoist One Sword Supreme, hello; I am Yu Cixue, vice sect master of Qian Yun Sect, these are my friends He Mengtang, Shou Yan Bu Shi, Qian Yue Yi, and Gu Gu Ji. We also happen to want to stroll the market; shall we go together?"

Xiao Feng felt a little embarrassed.

How come as soon as he arrived in the Nine Provinces Immortal Realm he got hit on; could it really be just because he's too handsome?

Back when he was in Yuan Su Shen Yu he was also famous for his looks for a while, but because his fame was too great, bearing the name "Xiao Feng", everyone knew he had a fixed female companion, so few came to hit on him.

Now switching to an alternate ID, his status dropped, instantly attracting attention from some opposite-sex players!

If he were still using his original ID and these girls knew who he was, it definitely wouldn't be hitting on them but rather an exclamation: "Holy crap, Xiao Feng has come to our zone, quick call people to come watch!"

Xiao Feng hurriedly shook his head: "No thanks, thank you." He refused decisively.

It's not that he's aloof; mainly he just arrived in this zone and knows nothing about the market situation.

Strolling with others, if he accidentally reveals his true identity it would be embarrassing.

Yu Cixue seeing him refuse, not only was not disappointed but became even more excited!

"He's still an aloof handsome male immortal, even more of a challenge… cough, that, Fellow Daoist don't rush to refuse; I have a Pre-Heaven Market Supreme VIP card, all transactions get 20% off, consignment fees cut by 50%, I can help you for free~"

"No need, thanks." Xiao Feng refused again.

He only has ten thousand Spirit Stones on him, basically nothing to trade.

If selling goods, apart from Supreme Treasures and those equipment and medicinal materials, there's really nothing else to offer, and the quantity isn't large.

"Huh?"

Xiao Feng just walked off, leaving Yu Cixue, who had prepared many flirting tactics, completely at a loss.

"Could it be that her charm isn't enough?"

She and her companions looked at each other.

"Not bad, her outfit today is also stylish, her looks are naturally top-notch… could it be that guy isn't interested in women, a single-mindedly devoted true cultivator?"

"Hiss! That's even more extraordinary; we must win him over!"

The five female players chased after Xiao Feng again.

"Hey, Fellow Daoist, what are you here for? We mean no harm, we really just want to make friends." Yu Cixue shouted, running up to Xiao Feng with a sincere expression.

Xiao Feng felt helpless: "I'm just casually looking around."

"Coincidentally, so are we!"

"……"

Don't put on an unhappy expression, okay? Could it be you have social anxiety? You're afraid to talk to women?

……

Don't be shy, come on, the sisters will take you to play~

……

The other party had already moved in, wanting to grab his arm and stroll the market together.

Xiao Feng couldn't help but feel embarrassed, saying: "I have a wife."

Ah?

Upon hearing that, the women's interest dropped by 90% instantly.

Ah, boring, I'm leaving, I'm leaving.

What a pity, wasting such a good appearance.

Women of the Thousand Cloud Gate only take a principal wife—farewell!

Those who had been lingering to flirt left right away.

Xiao Feng was a bit surprised, not expecting this line to work so well.

After seeing off the flirters, the surroundings became much quieter, although still bustling, it had nothing to do with him.

He followed the crowd into the market's interior, where the space was huge and divided into five floors.

After entering the main gate, there was a sign indicating the function of each area on each floor.

The first floor is the equipment stall area, with many small shops that can be rented to players for setting up stalls to trade equipment.

The second floor is the consumables market, where common consumables like pills and talismans can be bought and sold.

The third floor is the wholesale market, where players can use the system to post bulk purchase and bulk sale orders for large‑scale transactions.

The fourth floor is the auction house, with a total of 81 halls, each conducting one round per hour, with estimated huge transaction volume. Moreover, there is a premium hall where only one auction is held per day, each item starting at no less than 10 million spirit stones, dedicated to precious items.

The fifth floor is the supreme VIP service level, accessible only to those who have spent over 1 billion spirit stones here.

Xiao Feng glanced at the introduction and decisively went straight to the fourth floor.

Although he had nothing much to sell, he still had four or five pieces of junk supreme treasure in his pockets; consigning them could exchange for some spirit stones, so at least he wouldn't be too tight‑fisted while wandering the martial world.
