Chapter 297: Tiannan

Ling Zhiwang handed He Ping a jade slip.

The jade slip was the token.

"Also!" Ling Zhiwang continued: "Although we are neighbors with Nanlong Commandery, and the distance to Tiannan City is not very far, if you rely on your sword flight, I'm afraid you won't be able to arrive in a month!"

"A bit too late!"

He Ping nodded.

It was indeed too late.

Even if he arrived in a month, by then people would have long since set off for Xishu Commandery.

Where would he go to get any qualification?

Naturally, the earlier he arrived, the better.

"Does Red Shicheng have those large flying ships that go to Tiannan City?" He Ping asked Ling Zhiwang.

Ling Zhiwang said: "Yes... but if you go, you need to be careful!"

"It's best to disguise yourself!"

"Otherwise, if Elder Jingxin finds out, it will be troublesome!"

He Ping nodded: "Good, thank you, Fellow Daoist!"

Bidding farewell to Ling Zhiwang, after walking out of the Red Moon Chamber of Commerce, He Ping didn't look back and went straight to the Immortal Ship Plaza.

On the way to the Immortal Ship Plaza, He Ping pinched his face while walking.

After arriving at the Immortal Ship Plaza, he had turned into the appearance of Cheng Cheng Dao Cai.

He Ping had taken this kind of immortal ship before; that was when he went from Dingxiang Commandery to Shangdang Commandery to participate in the 【God General Mountain】 mystic realm.

The speed of this kind of immortal ship was truly incomparable.

It was much faster than ordinary sword flight or those magic treasure flying ships.

The cost of taking this kind of large flying ship was not expensive either.

Five thousand low-tier spirit stones would be enough.

He Ping successfully boarded the flying ship and only spent one day traveling from Red Shicheng to Tiannan City.

After getting off the flying ship, He Ping went straight to the address of Ling Zhiwang's friend.

It wasn't that he had no precautions.

But he didn't need to worry too much.

First, this is a city, and large-scale fighting is not allowed.

Secondly, whoever can be friends with Ling Zhiwang is probably just at the Foundation Establishment stage.

At the Foundation Establishment stage, he is basically an invincible existence.

So He Ping didn't worry too much.

Renting a vehicle near the Immortal Ship Plaza, He Ping spent half an hour to arrive at the residence of Ling Zhiwang's friend.

This was a small courtyard.

It was much the same as He Ping's small courtyard in Red Shicheng.

The spiritual energy in the courtyard was average.

Around the courtyard, several first-tier arrays were set up.

Seeing these arrays, He Ping laughed directly.

Soon, a middle-aged cultivator walked out of the courtyard, and seeing He Ping, he was a bit surprised: "Fellow Daoist!"

"I don't know you..."

He Ping's spiritual sense swept over him, and he found that the other party was only a fourth-layer Foundation Establishment cultivator, so he felt relieved and took out the jade slip: "Hello, Fellow Daoist, I am a friend of Ling Zhiwang. You can tell by looking at this jade slip!"

"Oh?" The man nodded, then picked up the jade slip and looked at it.

Spiritual sense penetrated into it, and the content inside emerged.

"Fellow Daoist Xu, right... hello, hello..."

"Please come in!"

"That's right, I am Ling Zhiwang's close friend!"

"My surname is Qin, name Qin Zhou!"

"Fellow Daoist Qin!"

The two exchanged pleasantries and entered Qin Zhou's Daoist field.

They sat down in order of host and guest.

Qin Zhou said: "I already know what Fellow Daoist Xu is seeking!"

"You want to get a 【Five Dragon Ditch Mystic Realm】 in 【Xishu Commandery】?"

"May I ask, Fellow Daoist, what is your cultivation now?"

Qin Zhou looked at He Ping.

Because he couldn't see through He Ping's cultivation.

He Ping said: "This poor Daoist is at the eleventh layer of Foundation Establishment!"

"Oh!" Qin Zhou said: "Disrespect, disrespect... so your cultivation is so high?"

"It just so happens that the rule in our Tiannan City is that only cultivators at the eleventh and twelfth layers of Foundation Establishment have the qualification to obtain it!"

"However, you are late!"

"The qualifications here have all been distributed!"

"Ah?" He Ping was stunned.

But thinking about it, it was normal.

After all, Red Shicheng had basically finished distributing them too.

So it wasn't strange that Tiannan City had finished distributing them.

"Then..." He Ping said: "Can it be purchased through an auction or a chamber of commerce?"

"Not very likely!" Qin Zhou shook his head.

But he quickly said: "Fortunately, the qualification tokens here in Tiannan City are not registered, so they can be traded!"

"If you are willing to pay something, you should be able to exchange for one!"

Hearing this, He Ping was overjoyed: "Then... where can I exchange for one?"

Qin Zhou said: "Black Market!"

"Fellow Daoist Xu, don't be anxious!"

"When night falls, this poor Daoist will take you to the Black Market... you should be able to run into this token!"

He Ping knew that some places had black markets, but he had never been to one.

As the name implies, the black market exists in dark places.

The price is naturally black.

And trading in the black market carries a certain danger; no one guarantees your safety.

If you show your wealth and get targeted, you're done for.

But He Ping had no choice.

He nodded and said: "Good, in that case, thank you, Fellow Daoist!"

Night fell!

Qin Zhou took He Ping, left the small courtyard, and headed toward the Black Market.

After circling the city a few times, the two came to a pitch-black place; this was a huge ruin.

Behind the ruins, there was another dilapidated great hall.

And behind the great hall, there was another pitch-black cave entrance.

Beside the cave entrance, seven or eight burly men were guarding it.

He Ping swept his spiritual sense, and every burly man here had Foundation Establishment cultivation.

"Brother Lu, here is the plaque!" Qin Zhou took out a pitch-black plaque.

One of the burly men nodded and said: "Hurry in!"

Qin Zhou took He Ping and walked quickly into the cave entrance.

The moment he entered the cave, He Ping had a feeling.

It was as if after walking into the cave, he had come to another world.

The scenery in front of him unfolded accordingly.

Dim yellow lights shone from somewhere, and in a space that wasn't too big, there was a street.

On the street were a few small houses, and there were several hundred people coming and going.

"This is the Black Market!"

Qin Zhou said: "Here, it is the space of a magic treasure... we are now inside someone else's magic treasure!"

"So brother, unless it's a last resort, don't make a move!"

"Good!" He Ping was surprised: Actually inside someone else's magic treasure.

But thinking about it, he understood.

If by any chance they encountered an inspection by the City Lord's Mansion, they could just leave directly with the magic treasure.

Much better than a fixed place.

"Let's go..." Qin Zhou took He Ping to the door of a small house.

In that small house sat a cultivator.

Middle-aged man, full of murderous intent.

He Ping didn't dare to sweep out his spiritual sense.

"Brother Lou, this is my friend... he wants to buy something in the Black Market!" Qin Zhou saluted the cultivator named Brother Lou with a smile.
