Divine Weapon Marketplace
Sixty years have passed, and the door to the Cultivation Room opened, Shen Long walked out.
He took out a red Communication Disk, cast a spell, and asked, "Junior Nephew Sun, have there been any major news events in recent years?"
"The Blood Flame Sect and the Nine Flames Sect's affiliated forces clashed fiercely, resulting in the deaths and injuries of over thirty Spirit Transformation cultivators. It's said that this was all over a Golden Lotus Token."
Sun Lin said.
"Competing for the Golden Lotus Token?"
Shen Long was somewhat surprised, as he had a Golden Lotus Token in his hand.
"The Golden Lotus Token issued by True Monarch Golden Lotus allow one divination by True Monarch Golden Lotus Golden Lotus Token. A merchant caravan from the Xu Family, an affiliated force of the Blood Flame Sect, obtained a Golden Lotus Token, but the news leaked out. They were ambushed and killed by cultivators from the Chen family on the way, escalating the conflict and drawing in multiple affiliated forces, resulting in heavy casualties."
Sun Lin reported.
"Who will ultimately obtain the Golden Lotus Token?"
Shen Long asked.
"I've heard it's from the Nine Flames Sect, but I have no way of verifying its authenticity."
Sun Lin said.
The Blood Flame Sect and the Nine Flames Sect are mortal enemies, as are the Thousand Spirits Sect.
"Aside from this, is there any other news?"
Shen Long asked.
"Grandmaster Xu Xiao has advanced to the Void Refining stage. He is the grand-disciple of Grandmaster Wu. Void Refining Ceremony will be held in twenty years, and many forces have been invited to participate, including the Li Family and the Nine Flames Sect."
Sun Lin said.
"Is there any news about Fifth Rank Monster Ape with the bloodline of the Mountain Giant Ape?"
Shen Long continued to ask.
"No, this disciple has already asked someone to keep an eye out. We'll notify Uncle-Master Shen immediately if there's any news."
Sun Lin said.
"Come to Golden Roc Garden, I have something to tell you."
Shen Long gave the order.
"Yes, Uncle-Master Shen."
Sun Lin agreed.
Shen Long put away the Communication Disk, got up and walked out.
He sat down in the stone pavilion, and not long after, Sun Lin arrived.
"How are the planted spirit medicine and fruit trees?"
Shen Long asked casually.
"Everyone knows they are working for Uncle-Master Shen, so they are all very dedicated, and the spirit medicine and fruit trees are growing quite well."
Sun Lin said respectfully.
Shen Long took out a Cyan Storage Bracelet and handed it to Sun Lin, saying, "These resources are yours. Work hard for me, and I won't treat you unfairly. If you can help me obtain the Essence Blood of Fifth Rank Monster Ape with the bloodline of the Mountain Giant Ape, I will reward you handsomely."
"Yes, Uncle-Master Shen, thank you very much Uncle-Master Shen."
Sun Lin accepted the Storage Bracelet with both hands, his expression excited.
"Go ahead and get busy!"
Shen Long waved his hand, signaling Sun Lin to leave.
He stomped his right foot on the ground, transformed into a Escape Light, and disappeared into the void, leaving the Thousand Spirits Sect.

A Quiet Manor, with pavilions, towers, waterwheels, and long corridors.
A burly man in a blue robe and Mo Bingbing sat in a Cyan Stone Pavilion, sipping tea and chatting.
"Congratulations on advancing to the Void Refining stage."
Mo Bingbing offered her congratulations with a broad smile.
"Aunt Mo, I heard that a cultivator from the Spirit Control Sect of the Gan Yang Realm has ascended to the Lingxu Realm?"
The burly man in the blue robe spoke, his voice booming.
Xu Xiao, Early Void Refining, is the grand-disciple of True Monarch Spirit Control.
His master was Mo Bingbing's senior brother, so even after Xu Xiao reached the Void Refining stage, he still had to address Mo Bingbing as his senior aunt.
"Yes! You mean Nephew Shen? Shall I send someone to invite him over so you can meet him?"
Mo Bingbing smiled gently, took out a Dharma Disk that shimmered with white light, cast a spell, and then gestured.
After a while, Li Tianxue's voice came from the Dharma Disk: "Master, Junior Brother Shen has just gone out."
Where did he go?
Mo Bingbing asked.
Didn't he say where he was going?
Mo Bingbing asked.
"No, he's probably going to buy resources! Should I go find him?"
Li Tianxue guessed.
"No need, he's not a three-year-old child, let him be!"
Mo Bingbing said, putting away the Communication Disk.
"Since Nephew Shen is out, let's do it another time! Grandmaster would be very happy to know about this."
Xu Xiao said.
"Master is still traveling and hasn't returned yet. I heard that the Blood Flame Sect's affiliated forces obtained a Golden Lotus Token, but unfortunately it was intercepted by the Nine Flames Sect's affiliated forces. That Golden Lotus Token should be in the hands of the Nine Flames Sect."
Mo Bingbing said with a smile.
She was naturally pleased that the Blood Flame Sect had suffered a setback.
"If only that Golden Lotus Token were in our hands, we could ask the True Monarch Golden Lotus to divine our fortuitous opportunity."
Xu Xiao's face was full of envy as he finished speaking.
"We still need to find the True Monarch Golden Lotus. He has no fixed abode and his whereabouts are uncertain. If we can't find the True Monarch Golden Lotus, having the Golden Lotus Token will be useless."
Mo Bingbing said.
Xu Xiao nodded and said, "He hasn't shown his face for many years. He might have advanced to the Body Integration Realm, otherwise he should have passed away by now."
After chatting for a while, Mo Bingbing said goodbye and left.

Divine Weapon Marketplace is located in the southeastern part of the Green Lotus Continent. It is one of the fifteen major Marketplace of the Human Race on the Green Lotus Continent. It enjoys a superior geographical location and is a gathering place for merchants and travelers.
The streets were wide and clean, and pedestrians thronged the streets.
Shen Long and Shen Hai strolled along the street, looking around.
Shen Hai is currently at the Nascent Soul Great Perfection Spirit Transmutation Realm and can attempt to break through to the Nascent Soul Great Perfection stage, but Shen Long was unavailable, which prevented him from attempting to break through to the Spirit Transmutation Realm.
Shen Long went to the Divine Weapon Marketplace to buy cultivation resources and also helped Shen Hai break through to the Spirit Transmutation Realm.
If Shen Hai reaches the Spirit Transmutation Realm, he can receive even more assistance.
There are many weapon shops here, selling Spirit Treasure, Heaven-Piercing Spirit Treasure, and Puppet Beast.
After a short while, Shen Long and Shen Hai arrived at a spacious Bluestone Square. There were many stalls there, selling all sorts of things, and many of the stall owners were Spirit Transformation cultivators.
Shen Long wandered around, hoping to find some good items.
He suddenly quickened his pace and came to a small stall. The stall owner was a burly man in a blue robe. There were many items on the stall, and two Black Bead caught Shen Long's attention.
He picked up two Black Bead and asked, "Fellow Daoist, how much are these two fifth-tier Yin Bead?"
"Bartering, with priority given to materials used in weapon crafting."
The man in the blue robe spoke.
Shen Long took out a cyan Jade Box and handed it to the man in the cyan robe. The man in the cyan robe opened it and glanced at it. Inside was a five-colored jade stone. He nodded.
Shen Long put away the two Yin Bead and walked forward.
He walked around and bought quite a few materials for refining weapons and alchemy.
"Fellow Daoist Shen, what a coincidence!"
A familiar male voice reached Shen Long's ears.
Shen Long turned his head and saw Xue Sheng walking towards him with a big smile on his face.
"Fellow Daoist Xue, what a coincidence!"
Shen Long greeted him.
"Fellow Daoist Shen, Fairy Li also in the Divine Weapon Marketplace? I need to speak with her about something."
Xue Sheng asked.
"Senior Sister Li didn't come with me."
Shen Long told the truth.
Hearing this, Xue Sheng was somewhat disappointed. Then, remembering something, he said, "By the way, Fellow Daoist Shen, I remember you were interested in Fifth-Rank Wood Demon Crystal Core. A friend of mine has Fifth-Rank Wood Demon Crystal Core; he's in the Marketplace."
"That's wonderful! Fellow Daoist Xue, could you please make an introduction? If I obtain Fifth-Rank Wood Demon Crystal Core, I will certainly treat you well."
Shen Long said sincerely.
