Chapter 601: Black Market

~8 min read 1,506 words

"Then the flying car doesn't count as sword-flying?" The flying car can pull at most five people. Doesn't this pull more people than using the Sword-Washing Pool?

The official officer glanced at Lu Yang and explained: "The flying car belongs to a specialized flying magic treasure, and each one has undergone quality inspection. There are special regulations in the law. If your Sword-Washing Pool also has special regulations, that's fine."

Lu Yang admitted defeat.

The two died before they could succeed, paying money before making money.

Fortunately, there were no waves afterwards.

During the several days of flying, in order to avoid the situation of sleeping in the open, the two landed at an inn, helped the landlady solve the problem of her brother-in-law bringing relatives to ask for the legacy of her eldest brother after her husband passed away, declined the heirloom that the landlady gave them to express her gratitude, and the two also inferred from the clues that the landlady was the murderer who killed her husband.

At the second inn, the two encountered a quarrel between two Qi Refining stage cultivators fighting for a top-tier room, obtained a nearby treasure location from them, dug out heavy treasures for Foundation Establishment stage cultivators on the way, handed them over to the local government, posted a lost and found notice, attracted two Foundation Establishment families, uncovered the century-long grievances and hatred between the two families, and the patriarchs of the two families both committed suicide in a heavy rain, bringing the century-long family feud to an end.

At the third inn, they encountered a rich lady being chased for thousands of miles. The two protected the rich lady home on the way, discovered and solved the fierce ghost hidden in the lady's home for ten years, forced the person behind the fierce ghost to come forward, fought a round with the two, and were captured by the two. The two declined the rich lady's request to marry them, and according to the clues left by the ghost-raising person, destroyed a stronghold of loose demon cultivators.

The Sword-Washing Pool pulled the two to Youzhou smoothly.

"Finally arrived." The two let out a long breath. It was clearly a few days' journey, but they always felt like they had flown for more than a month, and their whole bodies were sore.

The two entered the black market and found that it was different from ordinary markets. The black market was very quiet, with only cultivators talking occasionally.

"The reason for not letting out water is that taking a bath is actually quite comfortable."

At that time, cultivators from nearby cities would come here for secret transactions, as well as those like Lu Yang and his companion who came from further away to participate.

Because there was no supervision by the government, many things that could not be seen on weekdays could be seen in the black market.

Being able to drive such a large pool to fly, at the very least, is a Jin Dan stage cultivator.

There are cultivators guarding the entrance of the black market. This is to avoid mortals mistakenly entering the black market and causing unnecessary trouble.

He saw with his own eyes that the two flew with the Sword-Washing Pool, put away the Sword-Washing Pool, and changed into black robes. The set of movements was as smooth as flowing water. At a glance, they were old hands.

In the black market, cultivators conducting transactions would use methods such as gathering sound into a line or spiritual sense transmission to ensure the secrecy of the transaction.

The cultivators guarding the entrance did not stop the two.

"The time is just right. On the 15th of every month, Nascent Soul monsters gather here."

When the two arrived at the black market, the black market had been open for more than an hour. The cultivators waiting outside the black market had already entered the black market, so the entrance of the black market looked deserted.

The two wore black robes and raised their collars, revealing only a pair of eyes. This was the rule of the black market. If the government came to arrest people, it would be convenient to escape.

The Immortal Fairy thought to herself, isn't it because you two experienced too many things along the way?

The black market mentioned by Meng Jingzhou is located at the foot of a large mountain in the Youzhou area. The black market is usually hidden in a secret realm. When yin and yang alternate, it will perform space replacement, float out of the secret realm, and provide a trading place.

"This pool of yours is not comfortable to lie in."

For example, the technique Lu Yang is holding.

"Boss, are you sure this book is the Qi Refining chapter of the technique practiced by Lu Yang, the Congwendao Sect's Lu Tianjiao?"

The boss guaranteed with certainty: "How can this be fake? I have a distant relative in the Congwendao Sect. This is the technique he brought out from the Congwendao Sect!"

"Little brother, I see you are in the Qi Refining stage, right? Why don't you buy a copy and try it? I guarantee that after you practice it, you will soar into the sky and become a genius like Lu Tianjiao!"

Because there is no supervision by the government, many fake goods can be seen in the black market.

Lu Yang silently put it back. It was really too fake.

There were also some that weren't too fake, such as the latest version of "The Legend of the Congwendao Sect" placed next to it.

A closer look reveals that the book title is "The Legend of the Inter-Dao Sect."

A little thought can explain the reason why this kind of book appears here. The outside world is full of "The Legend of the Congwendao Sect," so there is no need to take it to the black market to sell. This is used to swindle suckers with bad eyesight, or those thin-skinned cultivators who are embarrassed to put it back once they pick it up.

Lu Yang also saw the Purple Gold Gourd, which is claimed to be able to suck the other party into the gourd as long as the name is called and there is a response.

The real Purple Gold Gourd is more valuable than the entire black market combined. Even if it is a replica, it is a magic treasure that even the Spirit Transformation stage must cherish. Whether it is a real product or a replica, it will definitely not appear here.

Storage rings of various shapes and sizes, the refiner is unknown, and the quality cannot be guaranteed. Correspondingly, the price will be much lower than the outside world.

Some of these storage rings are consistent with the description and are real products refined by refiners without qualifications. Some look like real products from the surface, but in fact, due to refining errors, they have a number of uses. Once the number of uses is exhausted, they will break. They are fake goods and require people with deep understanding of storage rings to distinguish them.

There are also many talismans to avoid ghosts and drive away evil. This kind of thing is difficult to forge, and fake goods are prone to major events, so they are all real products. But Lu Yang and his companion don't need them. A drop of Meng Jingzhou's blood is more useful than a stack of talismans.

Facing ghosts of the same level, Meng Jingzhou's Yang energy is already so vigorous that the aura he emits can melt the other party.

There are also female cultivators with enchanting figures soliciting customers on the street, who are directly ignored by the two.

"Why are there no things like souls, eyeballs soaked in potion, soul-calling banners, etc.?"

Lu Yang walked halfway. The atmosphere of the black market was the same as he imagined, gloomy and haunted, but the things sold were very different from what he imagined.

Meng Jingzhou glanced at his good brother with disgust: "The purpose of this black market is to evade taxes."

"What you said is the demon path black market. If I knew the location of that kind of black market, I would have destroyed it and found the government to collect the reward. Why participate in the Nascent Soul stage gathering? Isn't that money-making efficiency higher than now?"

Lu Yang admitted that what Meng Jingzhou said made sense.

"Arrived, this is the gathering place for our Nascent Soul monsters."

Meng Jingzhou pointed to a luxurious palace, pitch black, with statues of rare beasts on the four corners of the eaves. The formation isolated the exploration of spiritual sense, and two Jin Dan stage cultivators stood at the entrance.

This is the place he inquired about from Dai Bufan, absolutely reliable.

Lu Yang turned his head and asked Meng Jingzhou: "Speaking of which, I haven't asked, what is the self-reliance money-making method you mentioned?"

"Selling blood." ===== CHAPTER 602 =====
