Chapter 381 - 381: Shen Ping’s Plan (2)
But then Shen Ping understood. The five continents and four seas were not the real cultivation world at all. Now that he was in the Abyss of Supreme Darkness, he sensed the real cultivation environment.
“Looks like I can only buy medicinal pills to assist in my cultivation!” Thinking to this point, Shen Ping could not help but get up and leave the inn. He came to the elixir shop that had asked for information at the beginning-Huitong
Pavilion.
And when he saw Shen Ping, the Huitong Pavilion’s shopkeeper hurriedly welcomed him with a smile.
“Shopkeeper, what’s the price of the Spirit Binding Pill and the Golden Essence
Pill?” Shen Ping asked him.
The shopkeeper was stunned for a moment before asking tentatively, “Fellow Daoist, do you use it yourself or for the younger generation?
Hearing this, Shen Ping looked unhappy, but he still replied, ‘Til use it myself.”
As he spoke, he revealed a trace of his magic power.
Sensing the pure magic power of the Golden Core, the shopkeeper comes to a realization. He smiled and said, “So Fellow Daoist is a Golden Core Perfected.”
As he spoke, he did not look down on him at all. His attitude remained the same. This surprised Shen Ping. After all, this shopkeeper could oversee the opening of a shop in the Green Flood Dragon Market. He had an early-stage Nascent Soul cultivation. Usually, after knowing that he was a Golden Core, his expression and attitude would change.
Soon, the shopkeeper took out two bottles of medicinal pills, a bottle of Spirit Binding Pills and a bottle of Golden Essence Pills. Shen Ping took a look and frowned slightly. “It’s only of mid-grade. Is there no high-grade or top-grade.” The quality of the medicinal pill had a considerable effect on the medicinal effect. Especially at the Golden Core level. In the True Treasure Pavilion, there was an adequate supply of resources. Even his wife, concubines, and Dao companions consumed high-grade medicinal pills.
When the shopkeeper heard this, he said with a strange expression, “Fellow Daoist, high-grade medicinal pills are rare, and top-grade ones are even rarer. Usually, you can only see them at auctions. Moreover, medicinal pills of that level are very expensive.”
Shen Ping immediately understood that he had committed empiricism, in the five continents and four seas, the True Treasure Pavilion, which had a powerful background in the Immortal Dao, naturally had abundant resources. Even the Nine Continents Tower was a treasure of the human race. Moreover, it was responsible for suppressing strange beasts. How could it be lacking in resources?
However, the Abyss of Supreme Darkness was not the four seas of the five continents, nor did it have an immortal cultivation background. This place was adjacent to the Black Mist Direlands. Resources were definitely poor.
However, even so, if he consumed mid-grade medicinal pills, his cultivation speed would be slow. Therefore, he asked in a low voice, “Shopkeeper, may I ask if I can obtain a high-grade Spirit Binding Pill and the Golden Essence
Pill?”
He had the blood essence of a strange beast in his body. His cultivation speed at the Golden Core realm would not be too slow, but the blood essence was limited. At most, he could last until the late-stage Golden Core realm.
Shen Ping regretted not getting some blood essence before leaving the Nine Continents Tower. In fact, even if he wanted to, the Head Hall Master wouldn’t allow it either.
The shopkeeper glanced outside and smiled. “Fellow Daoist, follow me.” They arrived at the private room at the back. There was an array to isolate it. The shopkeeper sent a voice transmission, “To be honest, I don’t have high-grade medicinal pills here, but there’s a caravan of my Huitong Pavilion in the Black Fiend Valley tens of thousands of kilometers away. Fellow Daoist, you can wait here for a few months.”
Shen Ping frowned. “So long.”
The shopkeeper smiled bitterly and said, “Fellow Daoist, you don’t seem to know the situation of us human cultivators. Although I’m in the Nascent Soul realm I don’t dare to go to the Black Fiend Valley alone at all. As for my Huitong Pavilion’s caravan, we only come here to transport resources every few years. It’s been five years since the last resource transportation. Fellow Daoist, you’re considered lucky.”
Shen Ping could only cup his hands and say, “In that case, 1’11 wait in the Green Flood Dragon Market for a while.”
He had originally planned to use the caravan to leave. At that time, he could ask if he could temporarily join the Huitong Pavilion. The two left the private room.
just as he was about to walk out of the elixir store, a strong magic power fluctuation appeared not far away.
“Bitch! You can’t escape from me! Green Flood Dragon Guards, quickly surround the entire market. Don’t let any cultivators off!”
Swish, swish, swish. Immediately after, dozens of Green Flood Dragon Guards that emitted the aura of late-stage Golden Core and Nascent Soul rushed up. In a few breaths, they surrounded the edge of the Green Flood Dragon Market. At the same time, array fluctuations slowly closed in the sky above the market.
“What’s going on?”
“What happened?”
“Why did they activate the defensive array?”
A large number of cultivators from the various races in the market rushed out of their cave abodes and looked at the array formation in the sky in surprise. The edge of the Black Mist Direlands was already chaotic, and the market was often destroyed by cultivators. They had experienced such a situation countless times, so many cultivators wanted to leave immediately.
The shopkeeper of the pharmacy frowned and said, “I’m afraid it has something to do with the An sisters. This An family is a relatively powerful Nascent Soul family in Black Fiend Valley. It’s just that the An family’s ancestor is not a match for this green flood dragon. After knowing about this, he didn’t respond. However, the An sisters are at the late-stage of the Golden Core realm after all and have extraordinary talent. They should have some special methods.
“It seems that they have escaped from the shopkeeper of the Green Flood Dragon Market. Unfortunately… it will be very difficult for them to leave the Green Flood Dragon Market!” The shopkeeper shook his head. “It’s fine if that green flood dragon catches the An sisters. If it doesn’t, us human cultivators might suffer.”
When Shen Ping heard this, he could not help but say, “Shopkeeper, do you mean that the green flood dragon will vent its anger on us?”
“Yes.” The shopkeeper transmitted his voice, “Although this green flood dragon is still polite to us human cultivators on the surface, its goal is only to run the market and attract the resources of the various races, especially the cultivation resources of our human race. If it can’t find the An sisters, it will have an excuse. In short, you have to be careful.”
Shen Ping asked again, “May I know the strength of this green flood dragon?” “He’s at the late-stage Nascent Soul realm, but with his powerful demon body and bloodline divine power, he’s comparable to a Divine Transformation cultivator of the human race. There are fewer marginalized Divine Transformation cultivators in the entire Black Mist Direlands. Therefore, with his cultivation level, the Green Flood Dragon can almost run rampant here. Only when he encounters other foreign races with the same strength will he be slightly afraid.”
He returned to the inn’s quiet room. The shopkeeper’s words echoed in his ears. However, Shen Ping heaved a sigh of relief. The late-stage Nascent Soul realm was not the Divine Transformation realm after all. Moreover, even if it was the Divine Transformation realm, he was confident that he could kill it. That was a last resort.
Psst. Before he could sit cross-legged for a while, he sensed a powerful divine sense wreaking havoc and infiltrating the inn. Even the silent room’s array formation could not withstand it.
The Yin Chen Spirit Ring on Shen Ping’s body directly blocked this divine sense. He cursed inwardly. Indeed, in the next moment, the door of the quiet room was destroyed by magic power.
A middle-aged man with a flood dragon horn appeared in front of him. He glanced at Shen Ping with an extremely oppressive gaze, but after seeing that Shen Ping was not the An sisters, the middle-aged man left.
Shen Ping’s expression was calm. However, his heart sank. The person just now was definitely Layperson Green Flood Dragon. He had a special treasure to be able to resist the sweep of his divine sense. Although the other party did not say anything, it was hard to guarantee that the Green Flood Dragon would not covet it. In the inn, he might be wary of his identity, but if he left the market, the other party might attack.
-I have to reveal my cultivation slightly. As long as the other party thinks that I’m only a Golden Core cultivator, even if they covet me, they will only send the Nascent Soul Green Dragon Guards to attack me!” He pondered.
Shen Ping made a decision in his heart. In the next two days, he did not meditate and cultivate anymore. Instead, he went out frequently and occasionally leaked the magic power of his Golden Core in the inn. However, what puzzled Shen Ping and many cultivators in the market was that the An sisters had not been found. This was the territory of the Green Flood Dragon. Under the circumstances of searching and sweeping with their divine sense, the two late-stage Golden Core cultivators were actually able to avoid it. They really had some methods.
“Bitch. If you still don’t appear, I’ll kill four of you humans in a day until I kill all the humans in the market. At that time, let’s see how you can hide?!” In the evening, the angry roar of the green flood dragon sounded in the sky above the market.
Instantly, the expressions of many human cultivators, including the shopkeeper of the elixir shop, changed. Most cultivators were cold. They did not care about the life and death of others at all. The green flood dragon of the demon race was clearly taking the opportunity to plunder the human resources in the market.
“Shameless!”
“Despicable!”
Many cultivators who understood cursed in their hearts. However, scolding was one thing. In the face of such a threat, they had no choice..
