There was a street in the northwest of the capital. During the day, the shops were closed and there were no pedestrians. It was eerily quiet, but at night, the shops were open and people came and went. It was very lively.
This was the so-called Black Street!
There were a few types of people who came to the Black Street. The first type was people who came from aristocratic families in Martial Kingdom.
The second type was people from sects or ancient sects.
The third type was people who held important positions in the imperial court.
The fourth type was people who were powerful rogue cultivators.
…
There were many guards at the entrance of the Black Street. When Lin Feng and the others arrived, they saw that the people who entered the Black Street had to show their tokens. Only after confirming that there was no problem with their tokens would they be allowed to enter.
"Is this the Black Street? There are so many guards here. I wonder who created the Black Street? "
Su Zimo asked in surprise.
Long Shiyou said, "The Black Street is the busiest underground market in the capital, and even in Martial Kingdom. Many prohibited items can be bought here. Naturally, its background is not to be underestimated. Martial Kingdom alone wouldn't be able to open an underground market like this."
Lin Feng nodded and said, "There are traces of an ancient power here!"
"No wonder …" Everyone nodded.
Long Shiyou led the way, and the group arrived at the entrance of the Black Street.
"Stop!" A guard in black stopped Lin Feng and the others.
"This is a token!"
Long Shiyou took out a token and handed it to the guard.
The guard checked the talisman and gave it back to Long Shiyou. Then, he waved his hand and the mysterious cultivators let Lin Feng and the others in. Everybody was allowed to enter the black street.
The Black Street was very lively. There were many small stalls on both sides of the street, and there were all kinds of shops.
Long Shiyou said, "In the deepest part of the Black Street, there's a large market called Dark Mystic Hall. You can find many good things in there!"
Wu Ming said, "It seems that Brother Long is quite familiar with this place."
Long Shiyou said, "I've been here a few times."
"Hey, come and take a look. There's actually magic weapons here!"
Xuanyuan Zhan shouted.
Everyone walked over. It was a small stall, and there were more than a dozen magic tools on it. There were flying swords, magic robes, jade rulers, seals, and so on. All kinds of magic tools were available.
This made Lin Feng very surprised. In the entire Imperial Capital, only the auction house sold magic tools, and the price was so expensive that it was simply not affordable for ordinary people.
And there was actually someone selling magic tools in front of him.
Wu Ming muttered, "These artifacts can't be fake …" Before Wu Ming could finish his words, Lin Feng quickly patted Wu Ming. Wu Ming turned to look at Lin Feng and found that Lin Feng was shaking his head, indicating that he should not say more.
Wu Ming quickly shut his mouth.
The origin of the items in the black street was unknown. Furthermore, the people who dared to sell things in the black street were no small matter.
In a place like this, it was best to speak as little as possible.
"Patriarch, look at that flying sword, the Mysterious Snake Sword is a spiritual weapon!"
Wang Kun picked up a sword and was reluctant to part with it.
Lin Feng took it and looked at it. There were three words written on the hilt: "Chen Chang Ming." He did not know if this sword belonged to this person, or if this person had been killed and the treasure had been stolen. Of course, he would not ask about that.
The black street, the black street! It was something that could not be exposed to the public!
The prices of things here were much lower than before.
However, one could not ask about the origins of the items here, as that would violate the black street's taboo.
"This is a good treasure!" Lin Feng nodded.
Wang Kun looked at the stall owner and asked, "Boss, how much is this Mysterious Snake Sword?"
The stall owner was a thin cultivator who looked to be in his fifties. He narrowed his eyes and said, "Five million gold coins!"
"That's a little too expensive." Wang Kun shook his head. If it was only four or five hundred thousand gold coins, he might be able to afford it, but five million was too expensive.
"If it wasn't for sale in the black street, would you be able to buy it for less than fifteen million?" The stall owner said coldly.
Lin Feng had seen treasures of this level at auctions before, and they were all sold for around twenty million gold coins. Naturally, they were priceless.
Fortunately, this was the black street. Otherwise, it would not have been so cheap.
"Alright, I'll buy it for five million. There's five million in this crystal card. Take it."
Lin Feng tossed a crystal card to the stall owner.
The stall owner checked the card's value and nodded. "This sword is yours."
Lin Feng handed the Mysterious Snake Sword to Wang Kun and said, "There's a name on this sword, but I don't know where it came from. After you bring it back, find someone to fix it up and completely change its appearance before you use it. Don't invite trouble."
While saying that, Lin Feng gave the sword to Wang Kun.
"Society Master, this is too expensive. How could I dare to accept it?" Wang Kun rubbed his hands. He clearly wanted it.
Lin Feng smiled and said, "We're brothers, so there's no need to be so polite. If you feel bad, you can return it to me when you have enough money."
"Alright!" Wang Kun accepted the Mysterious Snake Sword, but in his heart, he was extremely grateful to Lin Feng.
The others looked at Lin Feng with admiration. Lin Feng's actions had left a deep impression in their hearts.
Everyone continued to stroll around the black street. Xuanyuan Zhan and the others bought some things, but Lin Feng did not buy anything. In Xuanming Hall, there were many counters with dazzling items on display.
When they passed by a counter, Lin Feng suddenly noticed that the mysterious Demonic Pearl was fluctuating, which attracted Lin Feng's attention.
The Demonic Pearl was strange, but there had to be a reason for it to fluctuate!
Lin Feng glanced at the counter and finally stopped at a cyan jade stone. At that moment, the mysterious Demonic Pearl's fluctuations disappeared without a trace.
"It must be that cyan jade stone!"
Lin Feng was startled.
Something that could cause the mysterious Demonic Pearl to fluctuate was definitely not simple. Lin Feng firmly believed that.
He pointed at the cyan jade stone and asked, "What's that?"
The salesperson replied, "Sir, it's a treasure that was excavated from an ancient ruin."
"Are you trying to trick us?" Wu Ming pursed his lips.
The salesperson replied, "In all honesty, Sir, our Xuanming Hall's reputation in the black street is well-known. We definitely won't deceive our esteemed customers."
"An item from an ancient ruin? How much is it?" Lin Feng asked.
"Ten million gold coins!" The salesperson replied.
Long Shiyou and the others rolled their eyes and said, "Why don't you just rob us?"
Lin Feng waved his hand and said, "I think that this cyan jade stone might be worth that much. Here's a crystal card. I'll take it."
"Alright, please wait a moment, Sir." The salesperson deducted ten million gold coins and then handed the cyan jade stone to Lin Feng.
Long Shiyou and the others smiled bitterly. They were shocked by Lin Feng's wealth.
The cyan jade stone was indeed very strange. It was extremely cold to the touch, and Lin Feng felt a chill invade his body. He was quite shocked. This cyan jade stone definitely hid some secret, and the people from the Xuanming Hall probably didn't know about it. They had probably just sold it as an ordinary item excavated from an ancient ruin. Lin Feng felt that he had picked up a great bargain, but now wasn't the time to study it. Lin Feng put the jade stone away without leaving a trace.
