The Mu Family's Heritage
"This time, I had no choice but to write to Little Moon to take care of the Heavenly Blessing Pavilion. With her kind personality, I don't think she would refuse."
Luo Zheng mumbled to himself. In a short while, Mu City was right in front of him.
"To be able to build such a magnificent city with just the power of a single family, this shows how amazing the heritage of these ancient families is!"
Luo Zheng raised his head and looked over, only to see a black city wall that was several hundred feet tall. It extended for dozens of miles on both sides, and the city tower was heavily guarded. The flow of people entering and exiting the city gate was rather lively, showing a scene of prosperity!
A city like this could accommodate at least hundreds of thousands of people.
The Mu Family had been passed down since ancient times. The strength of their heritage was far beyond the imagination of the average person.
Through Old Jia's introduction, Luo Zheng found out that this Mu City was only a corner of the Mu Clan's strength. Within the Hundred Battles Dynasty's territory, several hundred thousand li away from Li City's Imperial City, there was an area that spanned several thousand li. Since ancient times, this area had always been under the Mu Clan's rule, and had tens of millions of people.
Even the supreme imperial power of the dynasty could not interfere. It could be said that the Mu Family was the country within the country of the Hundred Battles Dynasty!
In the area under the Mu Family's rule, the dynasty would not interfere with the refining materials mined. The Mu Family could freely sell them.
However, these things would not be done openly and would be done in secret. This was also to give face to the War Emperor and the dynasty.
Luo Zheng entered Mu City and entered an inconspicuous shop. He found an old man with the surname Wang.
"Did Old Jia introduce you?"
Old Man Wang looked very ordinary, just like an ordinary old man. He glanced at the token that Luo Zheng had given him and asked in an indifferent tone.
Luo Zheng nodded.
"Do you know the rules?" Old Wang asked.
"This is my first time in Mu City." Luo Zheng shook his head and answered honestly.
"Gold or elixirs are accepted for transactions here. Of course, other artifacts and treasures can be sold at a discount. In addition, you need to pay thirty thousand taels of gold as a deposit. If the transaction is completed, the thirty thousand taels of gold will be used as payment. If there is no transaction, the deposit will not be returned."
Old Wang said.
"No problem."
Luo Zheng nodded and took out thirty thousand taels of gold from the Qiankun Gourd.
After calculating for a moment, he realized that the gold and pills he had on him added up to about 1,700,000 taels of silver. It was more than enough to buy the materials needed to refine a low-grade magic tool.
Since he had agreed to cooperate with the Heavenly Fortune Pavilion, Luo Zheng didn't hesitate to take back the gold and the remaining money from the auction of the Tiger-Piercing Blades.
Last time, the Tiger-Piercing Blade was sold for a sky-high price of 1.85 million taels of silver. After deducting the one million taels of silver that he had withdrawn in advance and 10% of the auction fee, he still had 665,000 taels of silver left.
Not long after, Elder Wang personally led Luo Zheng to the back of the shop. He opened an underground secret door and walked down the stone steps.
Luo Zheng could feel that behind the secret door, there was an extremely powerful restrictive spell that contained a horrifying lethality. Once the restrictive spell was activated, even if his strength was a hundred times, or even a thousand times stronger, he would still die with a grievance.
After walking down a long flight of stone steps, Luo Zheng passed through a small transmission array. Then, he realized that there was a huge underground world in front of him. It was a space that was dozens of miles wide. There were streets, shops, and people coming and going, selling all kinds of cultivation resources and items.
This place was far away from the War Emperor City!
Elder Wang didn't say a word along the way. He led Luo Zheng into a large shop called the Sky Vault. After entering a quiet room, he took out a catalog that was woven with golden threads.
"This place is called Mu Xu. You can buy anything in the world here. This is a catalog of all kinds of refining materials. The name of the materials, the quantity, the price, and whether you have them in stock are all indicated. If you have them in stock, you can trade them immediately. If you don't have them in stock, you can make a reservation, or we can provide you with information and so on. "
Elder Wang said lightly.
Luo Zheng nodded to show that he understood. His heart was beating fast as he slowly opened the catalog.
He knew that he had made the right choice this time. The power of the Mu Family was more amazing than he had imagined. The matter of finding the fire source would probably fall on the Mu Family. However, he wasn't in a hurry. He opened the catalog first.
Maple Pearl Stone, 800,000 taels of gold each.
Bodhisattva Fruit, 1,300,000 taels of gold each.
Golden Embryo Demon Eye, 2,000,000 taels of gold each.
Cold Moon Ganoderma, 3,000 Blood Nourishing Pills.
Purple Cloud Root, 20 Yuan Dan.
Yin Guiding Crystal, 30 Yuan Dan.
Luo Zheng didn't say a word. He slowly flipped through the catalog and was shocked.
He discovered that there were at least a dozen types of materials needed to refine the Heavenly Sword Array. However, the prices of these materials were astonishingly high. They were no longer priced in gold, but in elixirs. For example, the Purple Cloud Root cost 100 Yun Yuan Pills.
Luo Zheng knew that the price of a Yuan Dan was about 300,000 taels of gold. Moreover, there was no market for it. If he wanted to buy it, the price would be 10 to 20 percent higher!
A piece of Purple Cloud Root cost more than 6,000,000 taels of gold!
And the Purple Cloud Root was one of the common materials in the 81 Swords of Heavenly Sword.
Luo Zheng also saw the Meteorite Iron. There was no price and there was no stock. Luo Zheng didn't ask for the price because he knew that the price must be very high.
Elder Wang sat silently and tasted his tea. He didn't say a word and his expression was very cold.
In Elder Wang's eyes, Luo Zheng's clothes and appearance were very ordinary. He looked at the catalog of refining materials for a long time with a surprised expression on his face. He was very unsteady. It was obvious that he didn't know anything. He was embarrassed that he couldn't even afford the cheapest refining materials.
Of course, this judgment was based on the fact that Luo Zheng didn't take out gold notes as a deposit. He took out gold directly!
"Hmph, that country bumpkin probably doesn't even know about gold notes!"
Elder Wang despised him!
After a long time, Luo Zheng finally put down the catalog. At this time, half an hour had passed.
"Elder Wang, can I ask …" Luo Zheng saw the other party's impatience and smiled apologetically.
"There's no need to ask. The deposit of 30,000 taels won't be refunded!" Elder Wang said coldly. He sneered in his heart, "I've seen a lot of people like this. Once they realize that they can't afford any refining materials, they try to curry favor with others with a cheeky smile and want to refund the deposit!"
Elder Wang had received a lot of guests. There were rich and overbearing peddlers, Elder Sons of aristocratic families, and even Refining Masters with high status.
His eyes were very sharp. He could see that Luo Zheng was very immature. He was definitely a country bumpkin from a small place!
"Oh?"
Luo Zheng smiled. He knew that Elder Wang must have misunderstood. Originally, he wanted to ask if he could buy the fire source in Mu Xu. However, it seemed like he had to buy the materials first. Otherwise, looking at Elder Wang's disdainful face, he was afraid that Elder Wang wouldn't answer him.
"Elder Wang, I want two pieces of Scarlet Flame Jade!" Luo Zheng smiled.
"What, you …" Elder Wang widened his eyes and thought to himself, 'Are you kidding me? A piece of Scarlet Flame Jade is worth 800,000 taels of gold. Can a pauper like you afford it?'
Rumble!
Luo Zheng didn't wait for Elder Wang to finish speaking. He channeled his True Qi and the gold in the Qiankun Gourd poured down like a torrential rain.
Instantly, a gold bar weighed one jin. 700,000 taels of gold was equivalent to 70,000 gold bars. They covered the floor of the quiet room.
"This is 700,000 taels of gold and 900,000 taels of gold notes. I'll have to trouble Elder Wang to treat you to a cup of wine."
Luo Zheng said with a smile.
"You're too polite!"
Elder Wang's indifferent old face was smiling like a flower.
…
Two hours later, Luo Zheng left Mu City and headed towards War Emperor City.
"Tsk tsk, just a third grade fire source would cost more than 10 million taels of gold. We don't have any fourth grade or fifth grade fire sources in stock. The higher the grade of the fire source, the more dangerous it is. Ordinary warriors wouldn't dare to step into those places. Moreover, fire sources of fourth grade and above have high spirituality. Once they sense danger, they would run away immediately. It's very difficult to obtain them."
Luo Zheng recalled Elder Wang's words and frowned slightly.
Although there was only a difference of one grade between a third grade fire source and a fourth grade fire source, there was a qualitative difference. A fourth grade fire source was already a spiritual object. Not to mention purchasing a fire source, even information about a fire source would cost a few million taels of gold.
"Poor, I'm still too poor and too weak!"
Luo Zheng's eyes shone with desire. He craved power and power. After witnessing the Mu Clan, Luo Zheng knew that he was too weak.
Mu Xu's transactions in a day were simply unimaginable. He didn't know what kind of level he had reached. Hundreds of millions of taels of gold, or even a billion taels of gold …
It couldn't be calculated with gold anymore. It needed to be calculated with pills!
Originally, Luo Zheng thought that he could refine ten lower grade magic tools in a month. After deducting the materials, he could earn a million taels of gold. That was ten million taels of gold in a month. It was already very impressive and frightening.
However, this income was probably not as much as what Mu Xu earned in two hours.
Moreover, Mu Xu's income was definitely not all of the Mu Clan's sources. There must be many other sources. Just thinking about the source of wealth in Armenia was terrifying.
All this money would be turned into cultivation resources, which could be used to cultivate many experts!
This was the ancient clan. Their strength could be reflected in all aspects.
White Crane Marquis Mansion!
"Trash! You two trash! You can't even deal with a small Heavenly Fortune Pavilion! "
In the palace, Bai Xingjian stared coldly at the two people kneeling below. They were Chief Steward Bai and Commander He.
He was furious!
Commander He actually failed to make the Heavenly Fortune Pavilion bow its head and failed to bring back Mo Yiyun!
One must know that Commander He was the guard commander of the White Crane Marquis Mansion. He was at the Marrow Transformation Realm and was extremely powerful. At the same time, he was also one of Bai Xingjian's confidants.
Bai Xingjian felt that he had lost his patience. This game of cat and mouse was far less fun than he had imagined. He also wasn't as patient as he had imagined.
"Young Marquis, it's not my problem. It's the backer of the Heavenly Fortune Pavilion. I can't afford to offend them."
Commander He said hurriedly.
"Backer? What backer dares to ignore the White Crane Marquis Mansion? "
