Internal Trade

Regardless of what the Black Sun Ancestor was like, Zhang Xingfeng and the others were still in the starry sky. A Yu was staring at Zhang Xingfeng with her big eyes wide open, and her intentions were self-evident.

Zhang Xingfeng chuckled self-deprecatingly. This A Yu was truly a natural chatterbox, very outgoing and easygoing. An ordinary girl would never make demands of someone she'd only met a few times. He remembered that back in West Sacred City, A Yu had asked Zhang Xingfeng for some Demon Crystal.

"Junior brother, as your senior brother, if I give Hong Xiao and the others top-tier Devil Artifact, you can't just take them without permission." Zhang Xingfeng looked at Xiao Lin, and he felt more and more that Xiao Lin had the aura of a ruthless hero.

Xiao Lin laughed loudly, "Of course not! If you give them to Hong Xiao and the others, then these top-tier Devil Artifact will belong to them. The top-tier Devil Artifact I possess were all seized from the enemies I killed that day, not obtained from my own people. You can rest assured about that, Senior Brother!"

Zhang Xingfeng ignored Xiao Lin, but said to Hong Xiao A Yu, and Pang Yan, "Well... Hong Xiao's power is low right now and she needs protection, so I'll give you a set of top-tier Devil Artifact, just like your sister -Yu Yan's, how about that?"

Hong Xiao nodded repeatedly, and Xiao Lin looked at Hong Xiao with a hint of affection on his face.

"What about me? What about me?" A Yu immediately became anxious. Suddenly, A Yu realized that top-tier Devil Artifact were too precious. Although she had the courage to ask for one, she didn't have the courage to ask for a whole set. So she immediately said, "I don't ask for a whole set. Just give me one top-tier Devil Artifact!"

Zhang Xingfeng was not only stunned, but also surprised that this girl, A Yu, knew how to be embarrassed.

A Yu thought Zhang Xingfeng considered a top-tier Devil Artifact too precious to part with. She thought to herself, "That's right. Only top experts on Black Prison Star possess such artifacts. If I rely on cultivation, who knows how many hundreds of thousands of years it will take before it's my turn?" A Yu blinked and stammered, "If... if... if that's not enough, a mid-tier Devil Artifact will do!"

"Hahahaha... I didn't expect this..." Zhang Xingfeng and Xiao Lin couldn't help but burst into laughter. Xiao Lin knew that Zhang Xingfeng was not a stingy person and would not care about top-tier Devil Artifact.

With a gentle wave of his right hand, Zhang Xingfeng unleashed a burst of colorful light, and instantly more than a dozen top-tier Devil Artifact appeared before everyone's eyes.

"Pang Yan, A Yu, you can choose whichever you like!" Zhang Xingfeng said casually. Only A Yu, with wide eyes, and Pang Yan, equally surprised, remained.

Pang Yan instantly regained his composure, bowed slightly to Zhang Xingfeng and said, "Thank you, Brother Zhang!" He then turned around and began to choose his weapon. Pang Yan made his choice quickly, selecting a dagger at a glance, and then stopped looking at it.

Zhang Xingfeng smiled and walked towards Pang Yan, saying, "Pang Yan, why aren't you looking anymore? Is one piece enough?"

Pang Yan smiled slightly and said, "One is enough. We can't be too greedy. Besides, one dagger is enough. I've been dreaming of a top-tier Devil Artifact like this for a long time."

Zhang Xingfeng nodded. Celestial artifacts are different from divine artifacts. Divine artifacts are inherently powerful and possess unique attack methods, while celestial and Devil Artifact require their owners to use special Cultivation Method to unleash their full potential. Therefore, the value of celestial artifacts lies in their quality, and quantity is only a secondary consideration. Hong Xiao, however, is different. She has not yet Tribulation Transcendence, so having more Devil Artifact is like having an extra life-saving charm.

At this moment, A Yu looked at this piece, then at that piece, and then at the one next to her, wavering between them!

"Are you done? I'm going to take it back now." Zhang Xingfeng said jokingly, looking at A Yu's reluctant expression, as if she couldn't bear to part with either the sesame seeds or the watermelon. There was a hint of amusement on Zhang Xingfeng's face.

Upon hearing this, A Yu became extremely anxious. She glanced at the Immortal Armor, then at the beautiful celestial sword, and then at the Long Silk Scarf in her palm. Suddenly, a resolute look appeared on her face, and she took the celestial sword into her hand. Her eyes were fixed on the other two celestial artifacts, but she did not take them.

"Brother Zhang, why haven't you accepted them yet?" A Yu suddenly stared at Zhang Xingfeng, pouting as she spoke. Her eyes glanced at the two immortal artifacts, the light in her eyes clearly visible.

Zhang Xingfeng stammered, "It's not that I don't want to, it's just that your gaze is so intense, I'm afraid if I look away, your gaze will pierce me through a thousand holes! Hahahaha..." After saying that, Zhang Xingfeng burst into laughter, and Xiao Lin, Yu Yan, Hong Xiao, and Pang Yan next to him also laughed.

A Yu's face immediately turned red, and she glared at Pang Yan, the meaning of which Pang Yan understood very well, and he immediately shivered.

Yu Yan stepped forward, took A Yu's hand, and said, "A Yu, whichever one you want, just pick it. Consider it a gift from your sister-in-law. Brother Feng, is that alright?" Yu Yan turned to Zhang Xingfeng and asked.

"Okay, okay, okay!" Zhang Xingfeng replied.

As soon as Zhang Xingfeng finished speaking, A Yu transformed into a phantom, instantly acquiring the other two top-tier Devil Artifact. Her speed astonished even Zhang Xingfeng, who exclaimed, "A Yu's speed is incredible! She's almost as fast as that one-legged, Devil Beast -Chi Winged Flying Eagle! Amazing!"

Although A Yu knew that Zhang Xingfeng was teasing her, she didn't care at all. She was in a great mood at the moment. With three top-level Devil Artifact in hand, how could she care? She was extremely grateful to Zhang Xingfeng.

"Brother Zhang, Sister- Yu Yan, you are so good to me, so good!" A Yu said to Zhang Xingfeng and Yu Yan with a smile, but then turned around and deliberately put on a stern face, looking at Pang Yan, making Pang Yan's heart tremble.

"Pang Yan..." The strange tone made Pang Yan instantly raise his head and straighten his chest, saying, "Here!"

A Yu circled around Pang Yan's body a few times, staring at Pang Yan's face, but Pang Yan did not look at her and stared straight ahead.

"Very good, good attitude, but do you know what rule you just broke?" A Yu said coldly.

Upon hearing this, Zhang Xingfeng and Yu Yan were astonished, while Xiao Lin and Hong Xiao, who were standing to the side, were not surprised at all. Xiao Lin smiled at Zhang Xingfeng and said, "This A Yu, she set three major rules and ten minor rules for Pang Yan. Pang Yan is really something. He is usually very shrewd in everything, but when he is with A Yu, he turns into a block of wood. He does whatever A Yu tells him to do!"

Pang Yan took a deep breath and said with the heroic spirit of a warrior cutting off his own arm, "I know, I violated the second of the three major rules—to insist that everything about Miss A Yu is good and not to ridicule or mock her."

"Punishment!" A Yu coldly uttered only two words.

Pang Yan glanced at Zhang Xingfeng and the others. Zhang Xingfeng could already sense Pang Yan's helplessness. Pang Yan finally said, "The Three Dou of Broad Beans must be taken over three days. You must not use your internal energy to resist them!"

Zhang Xingfeng and *** Yan widened their eyes and exclaimed, "Three dou?"

Xiao Lin laughed and said, "Hehe, this is only the second rule. If the first rule is violated, Pang Yan will be in big trouble... Hahahaha..."

A Yu turned to Zhang Xingfeng and Xiao Lin and said, "Brother Xiao, Brother Zhang, let's go, don't stay here!" With that, she grabbed Yu Yan and Hong Xiao's hands and rushed down, with Zhang Xingfeng and the others following suit...

At this moment, Zhang Xingfeng and Xiao Lin were in the secret room, while our poor Pang Yan had already begun his punishment...

Xiao Lin smiled and said to Zhang Xingfeng, "Senior brother, my Black Prison Star is a famous mining star that produces immortal crystals. The quantity of immortal crystals we possess is definitely not something you can underestimate. This time, senior brother came to the Demon Realm specifically to exchange Demon Crystal for immortal crystals. I am very happy about this. When those major sects in the Demon Realm collect our immortal crystals, they only use a ratio of one to three. I also know that in the Four Great Saints, the exchange rate between Demon Crystal and immortal crystals is one to two. However, the land tax there is too heavy, and it is so far away, so I am not at ease."

Zhang Xingfeng smiled and said, "I know, kid. Aren't you just complaining? You're worried about how your senior brother will treat you? But you and I both have heavy responsibilities. I have the Tianxin Sect behind me, and you have Black Prison Star behind you. Tell me, what exchange rate do you plan to use?"

Xiao Lin stated firmly, "One to one and a half!"

Upon hearing this, Zhang Xingfeng frowned. While the ratio in the City of Heavenly Chasm was one-to-one, that was a small amount. If he cooperated with those major sects of the Demon Realm at a ratio of one to one and a half, using millions of Demon Crystal, they would definitely agree. After all, the quantity was large; even at one and a half, the profit would be substantial!

Once you enter the Demon Realm, even small transactions involving Immortal Crystals Demon Crystal are conducted at a ratio of one to two!

With such a large quantity of Demon Crystal, Zhang Xingfeng could easily exchange them with the Blood Kill Gate and others at a ratio of one to two. If Zhang Xingfeng wasn't in a hurry, he could also find more minerals, easily achieving a ratio of one to two and a half.

Xiao Lin is now offering a ratio of 1:1.5. Although Xiao Lin is his junior brother, he cannot be careless, after all, the transaction volume is huge!

Zhang Xingfeng frowned, and Xiao Lin's heart tightened as well. However, there was nothing he could do. He had calculated that only a 1:1.5 ratio of Earth Demon Crystal could guarantee his expansion!

"How many immortal crystals can your Black Prison Star provide?" Zhang Xingfeng didn't answer, but asked Xiao Lin instead.

Xiao Lin knew that the ratio he offered was too low. When those super-large sects came to acquire land, the ratio was 1 to 3. Now, Xiao Lin offered 1 to 1.5, which was more than twice as high as before.

Upon hearing Zhang Xingfeng's question, he immediately replied, "Almost half of my Black Prison Star is made up of Immortal Crystal mines. Proportionally, 99% of the mines consist of low-grade Immortal Stone, mid-grade Immortal Stone, and high-grade Immortal Stone, with the remaining 1% being Immortal Crystals. My Black Prison Star has a total of about three million Immortal Crystals. However, during the era when the Blood Yu Sect controlled the planet, most of them were already mined, and I sold quite a lot in the past. Now, the total Immortal Crystal reserves on Black Prison Star are approximately seven hundred thousand pieces. However, my Black Prison Star currently has one hundred thousand readily available, already mined Immortal Crystals, and these one hundred thousand pieces are what my Black Prison Star can trade right now!"

Zhang Xingfeng was stunned when he heard this; it was so little! He had heard that most of Black Prison Star was filled with immortal crystal deposits, and he thought there would be a lot, but he didn't expect it to be so little!

Zhang Xingfeng was unaware that 99% or more of the Immortal Crystal mine consisted of Immortal Stone —low-grade, mid- Immortal Stone, and high- Immortal Stone! Immortal Crystals were the rarest, with an estimated one out of every hundred deposits mined. After all, Immortal Crystals were like the essence of the mine, extremely scarce. However, Zhang Xingfeng had come specifically to exchange for Immortal Crystals; he disdained Immortal Stone.

"How is it, Senior Brother? Did you bring enough Demon Crystal?" Xiao Lin asked cautiously.

Zhang Xingfeng couldn't help but smile wryly. He hadn't told anyone about obtaining the Demon Crystal in the Demon Emperor's Secret Realm back then, so Xiao Lin was unaware of it.

"Enough?" Zhang Xingfeng smiled.

"Isn't that enough?" Xiao Lin was shocked.

Zhang Xingfeng shook his head and said with a wry smile, "You should have said so earlier. You even said 100,000 immortal crystals was too much. Sigh, did you expect me to travel even further in the Demon Realm? 100,000 immortal crystals only requires 67,000!"

Xiao Lin immediately nodded happily and said, "That's enough, that's enough. Sixty-seven thousand Demon Crystal are enough, but Senior Brother, it seems you mean that my little bit of immortal crystals is not enough at all!"

Zhang Xingfeng smiled to himself, thinking, "It's not just not enough, it's not even enough to fill a tooth gap. I have over three million Demon Crystal, and I was planning to exchange them for three million! Now, the remaining mineral deposits on the entire Black Prison Star are estimated to be only around seven hundred thousand pieces, which is simply not enough to satisfy me."

Seeing Zhang Xingfeng's expression, Xiao Lin knew that his senior brother must have brought far more than 60,000 Demon Crystal. Looking at his senior brother, Xiao Lin sighed inwardly. His senior brother was so powerful in the Mortal World, possessing countless Devil Artifact (immortal artifacts). He had crafted a large number of Devil Artifact (immortal artifacts) in the Mortal World alone. Now that they were here, the gap between him and his senior brother was still so vast. He possessed the power to open the heavens, but his senior brother had so many top-tier divine artifacts that even the Demon Lord would be ashamed!

"Junior brother, I have something to tell you!" Zhang Xingfeng's expression turned serious.

Upon seeing Zhang Xingfeng's expression, Xiao Lin immediately composed himself, knowing that his senior brother was very serious at that moment.

"Senior brother, you haven't been here long, but I've noticed you've changed. You're no longer the Xiao Lin only wanted to live a carefree life in the Mortal World and didn't care about power. Now, you crave power, you crave being a leader, you crave..."

"Enough!" Xiao Lin's expression changed drastically, and the chill emanating from him sent a shiver down Zhang Xingfeng's spine.

A flash of pain crossed Xiao Lin's face, a heart-wrenching pain, as if he had returned to the painful years when he first arrived on Black Prison Star...

Zhang Xingfeng looked at Xiao Lin and was greatly shocked. Zhang Xingfeng must have been in so much pain that he felt only when he first learned of Rou's death.

Xiao Lin's face instantly turned ferocious, terrifyingly so. His face turned completely pale, his eyes turned bloodshot, and Killing Intent seemed to tangibly swirl around his body...

"Junior brother!" Zhang Xingfeng activated his Limitless Power and suddenly shouted!
