Sea Market

Li Weiyi has some understanding of the current situation of Lingxiao Shengjing.

Zen Sea Observing Mist had killed too many people, and fearing retaliation from the Western Demon Race and the Demon Kingdom, the Third Palace Master led the powerful warriors of the Lingxiao Palace to evacuate Cloud Heaven Immortal Plain and go into hiding.

The order in Lingxiao City and Cloud Heaven Immortal Plain is now being maintained by the Xue Jian Tang Ting.

It can be said that Tang Wanzhou's pre-battle judgment and planning were entirely correct, allowing Xue Jian Tang Ting to reap the greatest benefits and prestige, reaching an unprecedented peak of influence.

Because of Xiao Tian Order, the Mother-Child Spring, and the Second Palace Master, Lingxiao Palace has actually lost the hearts of the people.

Zen Sea Observing Mist's victory at Cloud Heaven Immortal Plain only made the people of the world less hate Lingxiao Palace.

Before Zen Sea Observing Mist and Yu Yaozi possess the strength to confront Feifeng and the Demon Kingdom, Lingxiao Palace can never remain the master of Lingxiao Shengjing.

Now that both the Mist Son of Heaven and the Great Palace Master have disappeared, the Lingxiao Shengjing cannot remain without a leader. If the Xue Jian Tang Ting can seize this opportunity to win over the hearts of the people and become the popular choice, then anything is possible.

Li Weiyi sighed inwardly, it seemed that he couldn't count on Tang Wanzhou for the time being.

It should be noted that a round trip to the Fusang Divine Tree would take at least a day. Given Tang Wanzhou's current status, he would have to stay in charge of the Moon Dragon Island market; it would be strange if he could get away.

Tang Zhan asked, "What level is your mental power at?"

"Eight-Star Mind Master"

Li Weiyi didn't distrust Tang Zhan; she just wanted to keep a low profile.

Tang Zhan said, "Hurry up and try to break through to the Nine-Star Mind Master Lingxiao Shengjing Realm and the Longevity Realm. Above the Longevity Realm, there is Shaojun. Below the Longevity Realm, someone needs to hold the fort."

"Isn't it you who's here?" Li Weiyi said.

Tang Zhan said, "How many can I possibly defeat by myself?"

"Breaking through the realm, how easy is that?" Li Weiyi sighed.

Tang Zhan said, "I heard that someone at the Du'e Temple is selling the Extreme Day True Pill in the sea market."

"The Extreme Day True Pill? Really?" Li Weiyi's interest was piqued.

The Light Flame Pill is a low-grade magic pill. The Star Day Pill is High-grade Dharma Pill.

The Extreme Day True Pill is a top-grade elixir, priced at over a million Spring Coin, and is often priceless.

Tang Zhan said, "What's so special about the Extreme Day True Pill? With the strength of the Du'e Temple, it's not surprising that they can produce low-grade spiritual pills."

Li Weiyi secretly decided to try his luck in the sea market. If he could really buy a few Extreme Day True Pill, he might be able to break through to the Eight-Star Mind Master soon.

As they drew closer to the city, they could clearly hear human voices and animal howls.

"How did you decide?" Li Weiyi asked curiously, unaware of how Tang Zhan and Tuoba Tao had discussed it.

Tang Zhan gazed at the lights behind the layers of trees and leaves. "The mortal world is three thousand feet deep, and fleeting glory is but a snap of the fingers. A man born into this world should wield a three-foot sword, seeking vengeance and revenge for three hundred years, and governing the country and the world for thirty thousand miles. Who does not cherish life?"

Li Weiyi understood his intention and smiled, "Three hundred years isn't enough. With your talent, how about three thousand years? You should definitely fight for a lifespan of three thousand years."

"Three thousand years? You dare to dream of that! How many people have been stopped on the path to immortality? Seven shackles, each a test of life and death. Too many delusions only bring more suffering."

Tang Zhan gazed at the vast sky, reaching out to touch the bright moon, his eyes filled with longing. How could his heart not yearn for a transcendent state?

However, while there are Hidden Person every sixty years, only one transcendent being appears once every thousand years.

He decided to join the Sentinel Spirit Army because he knew that only there would be a greater chance of success. His ideals and life goals guided him down this path.

After separating from Tang Zhan, Li Weiyi used Disguise Art to change her body shape and appearance and entered the sea market.

Since we're passing by, we should at least look for it.

The Moon Dragon Island market is built on the coast, with more than ten waterways dividing the land into hundreds of islands of varying sizes. The smallest island is only a few feet in diameter, just enough for a single stall.

The large island has hundreds of houses and towers stacked one on top of another. The stone steps are crowded with people.

Some vendors also placed their goods on boats and roamed the waterways, hawking their wares.

Li Weiyi rented a small boat and looked at the stalls set up on both sides of the river, carefully identifying and searching for something.

It must be said that Moon Dragon Island has a lot of good stuff: Thousand-Year Elixir, hundred-character artifacts, Flood Dragon Scales, longevity bones... it's dazzling.

However, ordinary Thousand-Year Elixir are merely sustenance for the Seven Little Ones.

Only elixirs Four Thousand Year Vintage can enable them to break through to the Seventh Heaven.

"The Longevity Bone is real, but it doesn't contain any Golden Marrow."

Li Weiyi stopped his boat beside a reef several tens of meters in size, examined a five-meter-long golden bone on a stall, and shook his head slightly, quite disappointed.

The stall owner, from the East Sea Demon Race, is a hippopotamus.

Its body had already taken on a human form, with legs and arms, and it was fat and tall.

However, it still has the head of a hippopotamus, with a large mouth and small ears.

"Golden Marrow is very expensive; not everyone can afford it." The Hippopotamus Demon sat cross-legged, hands clasped in front of his chest, mouth agape, his voice booming.

You can't see the facial expression, only the opening and closing of the mouth.

Li Weiyi showed little interest and instructed the boatman to steer the boat away.

He planned to obtain the Golden Marrow through the Jiu Li Tribe and the Hidden Gate.

In the battle of Lingxiao Shengjing, the Hidden Ancestor emerged, summoning a swarm of underground insects to defeat the Rice Corpse. The Jiu Li Tribe and the Jiu Li Hidden Gate will certainly be able to share in the benefits after the battle.

Perhaps, they even received a share of the transcendent flesh and bones.

Wouldn't it be even easier to absorb such extraordinary Golden Marrow?

"Wait a minute! You didn't even ask me if I had any Golden Marrow, why are you leaving already? When doing business, you have to ask more questions. Good things shouldn't be displayed in conspicuous places. You need to show some strength first so I can judge what level of goods I can show you."

The Hippopotamus Demon blocked Li Weiyi's boat.

Li Weiyi casually asked, "Do you have any elixirs that are Four Thousand Year Vintage?"

"Yes," the Hippopotamus Demon.

Li Weiyi was surprised and told the boatman to stop, "Five thousand years old... you have one too?"

"Have."

"Six thousand years?"

"Yes, one plant can yield 60 million Spring Coin, or 60 Top-grade Blood Crystal," the Hippopotamus Demon.

Li Weiyi calmed down. "Well... it's not that I can't afford it, it's just that there's no need."

"A thousand-year-old herb, 70,000 Spring Coin per plant, want it? It's much cheaper than in your human habitat, isn't it?" the Hippopotamus Demon.

The price of fine medicines increases several times over for every additional thousand years.

Li Weiyi knew he was being looked down upon, so he took out a Top-grade Blood Crystal and secretly showed it to the other party. "If you're Four Thousand Year Vintage herb and it's this cheap, I might consider buying one."

Upon seeing the Top-grade Blood Crystal, the Hippopotamus Demon's eyes widened and lit up. "There are too many people and demons here, shall we find another place to trade?"

Li Weiyi said, "I think this is a good place to make a deal. Surely you can afford it?"

"You have the petty mind of a villain!"

The Hippopotamus Demon continued, "Master Ma has an excellent reputation among Demon Race; he's all about integrity. Young man, I'm only thinking of your safety. Carrying Four Thousand Year Vintage elixir on your person will definitely attract attention. Forget it, forget it, you can't reason with a damned devil."

A golden rattan belt was tied around its round, bulging belly.

Seven bound bags hung from the rattan belt.

The seven belt bags hanging from the waist are also a symbol of strength.

The Hippopotamus Demon reached out its large hand and pulled out a ball of azure light from one of the boundary bags, quickly handing it to Li Weiyi.

Within the azure light was a refined medicinal herb resembling bamboo, only two feet long and as thick as a finger, with nine segments, crystal clear like jade, and within it, streaks of white light flowed.

Enveloped in the Yao Qi of the Hippopotamus Demon, the Medicinal Fragrance did not dissipate.

"You really have it?"

Li Weiyi was both surprised and delighted. He quickly took it and examined it carefully, sensing its depth. "The Nine-Calamity Bamboo has already undergone four tribulations; it is indeed Four Thousand Year Vintage."

"It's four thousand four hundred years old, no less, and was found in the Dao Domain of the Old Yuzhou Prefectural City. I'll give it to you at the price of a four-thousand-year-old refined medicine: five million Spring Coin, or five Top-grade Blood Crystal."

The Hippopotamus Demon looked around and noticed that quite a few eyes were already on them.

"So cheap?"

Li Weiyi was afraid there was a trap.

Normally, a 4,400-year-old elixir would be worth seven or eight million Spring Coin.

The Hippopotamus Demon was very patient. "Essence medicines are already cheaper in the sea market than in your human habitat. In addition, all the major ghost cities and Bone Mansion in the Southeast Nether Realm have been attacked recently, leading to a flood of essence medicines and a significant drop in prices. Master Ma, believe in fairness in business, and my reputation has spread from the Demon Race to your human habitat."

"To make it so that there are no difficult things to do in the world?" Li Weiyi asked.

The Hippopotamus Demon's eyes lit up. "Hey, that's a good slogan."

"The goods are correct."

After carefully examining the item, Li Weiyi asked again, "Can we exchange it for a magical artifact?"

"Magic artifacts are good; they can fetch a high price among Demon Race. Are you sure you want to trade here?" the Hippopotamus Demon asked again.

Li Weiyi had noticed many eyes were on them long ago, but he was fearless. The Flower Fairy Clan maintained order in Hai City, and no one dared to cause trouble.

Once I leave Haishi, I'll just change my appearance.

Li Weiyi took out a Seventh-Rank Hundred-Character Artifact and handed it over.

The Hippopotamus Demon infused its demonic energy into the Yao Qi, examined it closely, and was secretly astonished. "This thing of yours... its origin is rather strange. This is a standard-issue spear from the Demon Kingdom's army. Moreover, only the army's top elites could possess it."

"You won't accept it?" Li Weiyi asked.

The Hippopotamus Demon, "I'll take it. There's no Master Ma I wouldn't accept. But black market goods will be cheaper. For this spear, I can only offer you one million Spring Coin."

"A very fair price."

Li Weiyi then took out four more identical spears and piled them up next to the stall with a crackling sound.

The Hippopotamus Demon was stunned, then quickly put the five spears into its storage bag. Without asking where they came from, it said, "Young man, you're quite powerful! I have many treasures here. Are you interested in buying some more?"

It transmitted its voice, whispering, "I also possess transcendent Golden Marrow."

The extraordinary Golden Marrow must be ridiculously expensive.

Finding the Hidden Lord is a completely different story!

First, the Jiu Li Hidden Gate will cover half. Second, given his contributions in Lingxiao City, he might be able to receive it for free.

Li Weiyi actually wanted to test whether the Hippopotamus Demon had any five-thousand-year-old elixirs, but the wealth was too great, and with his current cultivation level, he might not be able to handle it.

Li Weiyi asked, "Do you have the Extreme Day True Pill?"

The Hippopotamus Demon looked troubled. "Demon Race aren't good at alchemy, but I've heard that someone at the Du'e Temple is selling them..."

A commotion arose from the river.

A magnificent, four-story magical ship arrived at the entrance to the mirage, its surface shrouded in layers of magical Light Veil. Each level was adorned with bright lanterns, and countless exotic birds flew around the ship, emitting dense and melodious calls.

"A prominent figure from the younger generation of the Western Demon Race has arrived!"

"Demon Race Princess Dengfeng and Prince Mingjiao of the East Sea Demon Clan have also arrived. The Demon Race is about to flex its muscles and join forces to deal with the pressure from the Dao Palace and the Du'e Temple."
