Chapter 562: 173 return, black market_3
It’s not so lucrative anymore.
After meeting briefly with the True Monarch of the Six-Tailed Fox, Zhang Mengdie, and Zhang Mengyao, and getting an update on the situation of the Earthly Immortal Mansion and the Phantasmal Sea Marsh over the years, Su Yu, Luo Qianyu, and Taoist Qingquan bid farewell and returned to their Immortal Sect.
Upon returning to the administrative hall of the Immortal Sect, Taoist Qingquan proceeded to take on a task to guard a certain region, while Luo Qianyu accepted an ordinary daily task, and returned to the dark sword peak.
Having accepted a regular Alchemy task, Su Yu walked towards the Dan Pavilion and wondered: “How can I accumulate materials for a teleportation formation?”
If he could set up a teleportation formation in the ruins of the Luoyue Alliance Dongtian Secret Realm, he would then be able to travel freely between Dayue Mansion and the Immortal Sect. As long as he didn’t let others know about the existence of the teleportation formation, there would basically be no security risks.
Moreover, with this teleportation formation, he could save his life using it whether there was a situation in Dayue Mansion or some unimaginable turmoil in the Earthly Immortal Mansion.
A means of escape had been added.
No matter how you think about it, it is necessary to set up this teleportation formation.
But—
It’s a teleportation formation!
At least a Fifth Rank Array Master is needed to set it up and even considering the resources he had from Huang Ling Island and the Gong Yue Business Alliance, he only had about half a million medium-grade Spirit Stones.
It might be more than his master’s fortune, but to arrange a teleportation formation, it’s still at least ten times short.
Also, if he wants to quietly accumulate materials for a teleportation formation, it’s very clear that it is impossible while staying in the Earthly Immortal Mansion.
“So, I need another identity to go to the black market?” Su Yu wondered. There is also a black market in the world of Daqian cultivators, one of the large-scale black market trading marketplaces is located beneath the Ten Monarchs Immortal City.
However, he hadn’t been interested in the black market before and had never visited it.
The black market beneath Ten Monarchs Immortal City is among the top ten, even top five, in the entire Daqian cultivation world.
It’s much easier to accumulate some Spirit Stones or resources there.
Especially with his astonishing success rate in concocting alchemy pills and talismans.
After spending three months in the Dan Pavilion completing daily tasks, Su Yu politely refused the elder’s invitation to stay and returned to the Great Yu Peak.
Half a month later, Su Yu quietly left Great Yu Peak and headed for the Ten Monarchs Immortal City.
….
Within the central region of Ten Monarchs Immortal City, there is the Heavenly Book Loft.
With the exception of it being larger in scale and size, the interior decoration of the Heavenly Book Loft in Ten Monarchs Immortal City does not differ from its counterpart in Dayue Mansion.
The shopkeeper of the Heavenly Book Loft in the Ten Monarchs Immortal City, was slightly surprised as he looked at the young man before him.
“This token, did Anyue give it to you?” The shopkeeper looked at Su Yu in surprise. Anyue was located in the border region of the Daqian Cultivation World, and he hadn’t seen him in many years.
After Su Yu explained, the shopkeeper learned the origin of the token.
The thought crossed his mind, could the elder of the Heavenly Book Loft in Dayue Mansion be ‘Anyue’?
The shopkeeper of the Heavenly Book Loft in Ten Monarchs Immortal City seemed stronger than the elder at Dayue Mansion, and was certainly in the late Nascent Soul Realm, even comparable to Huang Zhu’s peak Nascent Soul Realm.
Therefore, in front of this shopkeeper, Su Yu was even more respectful.
The shopkeeper pondered for a moment, then said, “Since Anyue is fond of you, this old man will naturally tell you everything.”
“You want to know about the black market?”
Half a day later.
Leaving with plenty gained, Su Yu considered the Heavenly Book Loft as one of the only two forces he could trust outside of the Earthly Immortal Mansion. It seemed the best choice to comprehend the rules and condition of the black market from the Heavenly Book Loft.
Transforming his appearance and becoming an ordinary young man, using his piece of immortal script metal to mask his energy, Su Yu approached the Heavenly Book Loft under the alias ‘Daoist Chiying’.
At this moment, Su Yu was strolling and thinking quietly.
According to the elder of the Heavenly Book Loft, beneath the Ten Monarchs Immortal City, the black market is not without rules. At least under the shelter of the Ten Monarchs Immortal City, no one is allowed to fight within the black market.
This includes even those who have reached the Dividing Spirit Realm.
However, once you leave the black market, the Ten Monarchs Immortal City is no longer responsible. Therefore, there are still dangers.
But that is just for ordinary people; after all, he has understood the power of space. As soon as he leaves the black market, he can teleport directly back to the Ten Monarchs Immortal City.
“So, I need to buy a cave-dwelling in the Ten Monarchs Immortal City and a stall in the black market.”
So what should the shop sell?
“Alchemy pills, talisman papers…the competition is a bit intense, but apart from these two, other formations and puppets are not quite suitable.” Su Yu thought for a moment and decided on the direction of alchemy.
One type of alchemy pill was enough; other talisman papers and such were unnecessary, it would draw too much attention.
In the future, he would specialize in third-rank alchemy pills.
He just did not know how much profit could be made in a year?
Dismissing these distracting thoughts, Su Yu first went to buy a small cave-dwelling in the Ten Monarchs Immortal City. It was the size of a small courtyard with a third-rank Spirit Vein’s spiritual environment. The asking price was as high as eight thousand medium-grade Spirit Stones.
Next, Su Yu went to an entrance to the black market at the southwestern corner of the Ten Monarchs Immortal City and entered the underground black market.
He first found the management of the black market and bought the property rights to a stall there for the price of 90,000 medium-grade Spirit Stones.
After buying the stall, Su Yu began strolling around the black market.
Compared to the surface of the Ten Monarchs Immortal City, the underground black market was extremely chaotic, teeming with numerous entrances and exits.
There were members of the Demon Clan, Evil Dao practitioners, disciples of the Immortal Sect, Loose Cultivators… people of all kinds of identities were present.
