Chapter 132: Black Frontier
"This... is it that mysterious?" He Pingsheng opened his mouth wide: "However, I still don't understand!"
He really didn't understand.
It was really because Cheng Siyu had just said too many things that He Pingsheng had never understood in one breath.
Cheng Siyu said: "Actually, I also heard it from Master!"
"Let's put it this way, sect luck, it cannot be seen or touched, but it indeed exists!"
"Let's give an example, a sect with good luck, when recruiting disciples, it is easy to recruit disciples with top-tier spirit roots!"
"Or when sect disciples are cultivating, the probability of breaking through will have a slight difference!"
"Of course, these things are passed on as miraculous, how much difference there is, no one can say clearly!"
"It is rumored that within the Cultivation World, there are people who understand Qi-gazing, who can see the existence of that luck!"
He Pingsheng nodded.
If it cannot be seen or touched, then there is no way to verify it.
Then He Pingsheng shook his head again; he had no interest in this 【Cloud Driving Talisman】 at all.
Not long after, this Cloud Driving Talisman was exchanged away by a cultivator.
"Everyone!" Hou Muling smiled sweetly: "The Hou Family is small and has little property, we can only take out such a treasure, the rest depends on everyone!"
After speaking, Hou Muling stepped down.
He Pingsheng used his spiritual sense to lightly scan Hou Muling.
She only had the cultivation base of the eighth layer of Qi Refining.
However, He Pingsheng always had a feeling, a feeling that this woman was much stronger than her brother Hou Muxian.
"This old man has a mid-tier spirit weapon here, named 【Dragon Capturing Golden Pagoda】; if there is a fellow Daoist who can take out a corresponding treasure, it can be exchanged!"
An old man waved his hand, and a small golden pagoda floated before him.
The small pagoda had a total of three layers, and it emitted a faint golden radiance.
Everyone was shocked.
This was a spirit weapon.
A mid-tier spirit weapon, possessing six layers of restrictions on it; if this thing could be obtained, combat power would definitely be improved by a large margin.
The key is, this was still a defensive treasure.
But He Pingsheng had no interest in this thing at all.
His spirit weapons were almost all top-tier; for attack, he had the Nine Brilliance Dragon-Slaying Flag, for defense, he had the Holy Wood Shield, and he also had a Soul-Extinguishing Bell specifically for attacking others' spiritual sense.
He had no interest in the small pagoda, so he didn't bid.
However, he did use his spiritual sense to scan the cultivation base of the old man opposite.
Upon scanning, He Pingsheng was greatly shocked: Foundation Establishment Stage first layer.
It wasn't that the old man's cultivation base shocked him, what surprised him was that he was actually able to see through the cultivation base of a Foundation Establishment Stage first layer.
This...
Has my spiritual sense become this strong?
Thus, He Pingsheng had no more scruples, and his spiritual sense swept across the bodies of the cultivators beside him one by one.
Qi Refining Stage!
Qi Refining Stage!
Qi Refining Stage!
Foundation Establishment Stage first layer!
After scanning a circle, He Pingsheng discovered that there were a total of six Foundation Establishment Stage disciples in this room.
Two at the first layer, one at the Foundation Establishment Stage second layer.
There were three others, He Pingsheng's spiritual sense could not see through them.
It seems they were at a higher layer of Foundation Establishment.
"This old man has an egg of an unknown creature here!"
"Everyone who is interested can bid!"
"Hehe... fellow Senior Brothers, Junior Brother has a high-tier 【Foundation Establishment Pill】 here..."
"I have a bottle of 【Spirit Gathering Pill】..."
The atmosphere at the trading society gradually became lively.
Cheng Siyu asked: "Junior Brother He, do you not have anything to take out?"
He Pingsheng thought for a moment, then took out a low-tier Foundation Establishment Pill and said: "A low-tier Foundation Establishment Pill, those interested can bid!"
As a result, no one bid at all.
Because several people had already taken out mid-tier Foundation Establishment Pills, and there was even a high-tier one.
A mere low-tier, who would look at it?
Not looking at it was even better.
He Pingsheng took out this thing originally just to perfunctorily deal with it.
It was just that he looked around, and he didn't see the item he wanted either.
Suddenly a moment of disappointment.
"This Junior Brother, hello!" A man wearing black Daoist robes came to He Pingsheng: "I want this low-tier 【Foundation Establishment Pill】 of yours!"
"Look, is it okay if I exchange it with this thing?"
The man handed over a talisman.
He Pingsheng took it and glanced at it.
The man hurriedly said: "It is a second-tier talisman, but the quality is low-tier, named 【Golden Bone Talisman】; after casting it, it can form a barrier... um... it should be able to defend against the force of a blow from a Foundation Establishment Stage disciple!"
He Pingsheng smiled and said: "Wang Shixiong is joking, what force of a blow!"
"After one blow, I'm afraid it will shatter, right!"
A second-tier defensive talisman.
This thing was not often seen.
But if it were mid-tier, it could indeed defend against the force of a blow from an ordinary Foundation Establishment Stage disciple.
But after one blow, the talisman would also shatter.
But low-tier...
If it encountered a Foundation Establishment Stage disciple, it would naturally shatter in one blow.
The benefit is that, although the talisman shield shatters, it can eliminate seventy or eighty percent of the other party's attack power.
The remaining twenty or thirty percent would still attack.
But it was much easier to defend against.
This is the role of a low-tier defensive talisman.
Very chicken-rib-like.
If one speaks of value, it could be said to be on par with a low-tier 【Foundation Establishment Pill】.
"Alright!" He Pingsheng took out the low-tier Foundation Establishment Pill and said: "Exchanged!"
He could strengthen it.
In this way, the second-tier talismans would be complete.
For attack, he had 4 【Heavenly Fire Talismans】 and two 【Mountain Moving Talismans】.
These six talismans were strengthened from the second-tier talismans 【Fierce Fire Talisman】 and 【Falling Stone Talisman】 obtained from Yude's storage bag.
Now that he had a defensive talisman, it could also be strengthened.
As for the fact that the activation time of this second-tier talisman was relatively long.
That was because the spiritual sense of Qi Refining Stage disciples was not strong enough.
Now He Pingsheng's spiritual sense was already comparable to the early Foundation Establishment Stage; when activating a second-tier talisman, he definitely wouldn't use a dozen breaths of time.
It should be possible in a short time.
But exactly how long it would take to activate, He Pingsheng didn't know.
Because he hadn't tried it.
Soon, about an hour later, this trading society ended hurriedly.
Because the things Qi Refining Stage disciples could possess were limited, just some talismans, pills, magic tools, and the like.
There were no particularly good things.
"Wang Shixiong He!" Hou Muling came to He Pingsheng's side again: "Qiao Shijie Cheng, hello..."
"Can I speak to you two alone?"
He Pingsheng said: "Of course, Junior Sister Hou, please speak!"
Hou Muling said: "Wang Shixiong He, Qiao Shijie Cheng, have you heard of the place 【Black Frontier】?"
"Black Frontier?" Cheng Siyu's pupils shrank slightly, and she said: "What you are talking about, could it be that forbidden land to the north of the Dao Xuan Alliance?"
Black Frontier, also called Black Frontier Tianji Juedi.
For low-level cultivators, that place was truly a forbidden land.
Because within the Black Frontier, not only were there many Qi Refining and Foundation Establishment Stage demonic beasts, but there were even Golden Core Stage demonic beasts.
This was not all; within the Black Frontier, there were many poisonous miasmas, and poisonous snakes and insects were everywhere.
Even if a Golden Core Stage great power walked into it, there was a very high risk of falling.
As for Nascent Soul Stage great powers, they disdained to enter it, because there was nothing within it that could move a Nascent Soul cultivator.
The key was that the area of this Black Frontier was very large.
The low-tier spirit herbs inside were countless, and there was no lack of those treasures that could allow one to break through bottlenecks.
Therefore, here, sometimes it was also called 【Home of the Desperate】. ===== CHAPTER 133 =====
