In the following days, Liu Ming meditated on the Misty Boat and no one else came to find him.
However, under his careful observation, he discovered that as time passed, the Misty Boat seemed to slowly become fainter. Of course, the process was extremely slow.
Five days later, the Misty Boat finally arrived at its destination, a huge valley in Wei Zhou that extended in all directions.
This valley had an area of at least ten miles. Looking from high up in the sky, one could vaguely see that there were countless buildings of various sizes neatly arranged. At the same time, there were many black dots of people continuously entering and exiting the buildings.
"Pu!"
The huge boat landed on an empty area a few miles away from the valley and disappeared into thin air.
At this time, Senior Qian calmly gathered everyone together and said, "Listen carefully.
The Wei Zhou Market is one of the three largest markets established by the sects of our country. Therefore, no matter which sect's disciples are here, they do not have any special privileges and cannot violate the rules of the market. One of the most important rules is that no one is allowed to fight or use flying techniques within ten miles of the market. This includes flying equipment. Violators will be immediately arrested and punished according to the situation. That's right, every sect will send a Spirit Master to take turns overseeing the market. Don't even think about getting lucky. The person overseeing this market is Martial Uncle Liu from the Mysterious Talisman Faction. If you have the chance, you might be able to meet him. For many of you, this is the first time you've been to a public market, so you should be able to broaden your horizons. However, if you really want to buy or sell something, you need to be a bit more careful. This place is a mix of good and bad people. Many of the cultivators here are loose cultivators and some are outer sect disciples from neighboring countries. Most of them are Spirit Apostles, but occasionally, a Spirit Master will appear. If it is because your eyesight is not good enough and you've been deceived, then I can't help you. Okay, I've said everything that needs to be said. In three days, I will come back here to bring you back to the Sect. Now, Juniors can move on their own. "
After Senior Qian finished speaking, she brought the green-clothed girl, Cui Er, and floated towards the entrance of the valley.
The others looked at each other and some of the more impatient ones immediately followed. There were also people who gathered in groups of two or three and started to talk.
Lei Zhen and the petite woman only exchanged a few words before they both headed towards the valley.
Liu Ming had planned to act alone from the beginning, so he naturally wouldn't stay any longer. After waiting for a while, he set off unhurriedly.
After the time it took to finish a meal, Liu Ming arrived at the entrance of the valley. Sounds of bustling activity could be faintly heard from afar.
His eyes flashed, but he didn't stop walking. Soon, he arrived at a clean stone street.
Both sides of the street were lined with bluestone buildings. The tallest ones were over a hundred feet tall, while the shorter ones were only a few feet tall. It seemed that they were all shops opened by cultivators.
Many cultivators with different auras were either walking on the streets or entering the buildings on both sides of the street.
As for the few disciples that he could see from afar, they disappeared in the blink of an eye. He didn't know where they went.
Because of this, Liu Ming was even less anxious. He walked slowly along the street, his eyes constantly looking at the shops on both sides of the street.
After a short while, he understood a little.
Although there were quite a few shops, they were generally divided into a few categories.
Some were shops that specialized in buying and selling various materials. There were also shops that specialized in selling finished pills or Glyphs. There were even some that mainly sold or customized Practitioner Weapons. However, the larger shops mostly did all kinds of business. There was even a shop that directly put up a sign saying that the shop had Totems for sale. This caused Liu Ming to stop in front of it for a while before leaving with a bitter smile.
He didn't even need to ask to know that the Totems that were sold in this kind of place either had a problem with the Totems themselves or the price was ridiculously high. It was not something that he could delude himself into.
As Liu Ming looked at the shops, he occasionally walked into a few of them and asked about the price of certain items.
After he finished looking at this street, he turned and walked towards a nearby street.
Four hours later, when Liu Ming walked out from the end of the street, he impressively saw a plaza that was a few acres in size. There were actually quite a few people setting up stalls here. It was impressively a place similar to the Barbarian Ghost Sect's Grey Market.
Liu Ming was a bit surprised and casually strolled around the stalls. In the end, he really did find quite a few good items for sale. However, after asking about the price, he could only shake his head and walk away.
However, when he walked in front of a middle aged man with a sickly face, he was attracted by the animal skin book that was placed in front of him. Unable to resist, he picked it up and casually flipped through it before opening his mouth to ask:
"This book, The Encyclopedia of Pill Refining Basics, how is it sold?"
"Aside from introducing the basics of pill refining, this book also contains a few basic pill recipes. Fifty Spirit Stones, non-negotiable." The middle aged man raised his head and looked at Liu Ming before speaking lazily.
"Fifty Spirit Stones."
When Liu Ming heard this, he shook his head and put down the book again. However, his gaze casually swept over another pile of items on the stall and he couldn't help but ask one more question:
"What about these items!"
"A set of low grade pill refining tools, three hundred Spirit Stones."
The middle aged man looked at the pile of old items that consisted of a small cauldron, a medicine bowl, and a medicine pestle before indifferently replying.
"If this book is a free gift, I want this set of items." When Liu Ming heard this, he said without hesitation.
He had seen the same items in the previous shop and the other party had directly asked for five hundred Spirit Stones. Moreover, from the traces of medicinal fragrance that these items contained, they should be real pill refining tools.
"I'll give it to you as a gift! Since you are the first customer today, I'll let you have it. " When the middle aged man heard this, he was a bit flabbergasted. He raised his hand and looked at Liu Ming before suddenly speaking with a smile.
Liu Ming was overjoyed and immediately took out three clear Spirit Stones from his sleeve and handed them over.
The middle aged man immediately took them and after slightly identifying the quality of the Spirit Stones, he nodded his head.
Only then did Liu Ming put away the book and the set of pill refining tools. Then, he left the plaza.
The entire market place was very large, almost equivalent to a medium-sized town.
After spending an entire day, Liu Ming had only seen half of the shops.
Thus, when the sky turned dark, he went to the market place and found a special inn for people to rest for the night. The next day, he continued to look at the rest of the streets.
Although many shops had pills that increased Fa Li, he only had a few Spirit Stones on hand. Moreover, he also planned to sell a few other items. Naturally, he planned to find the most cost-effective and reputable shops to sell.
At noon, when he finally finished looking at the last shop, he made a decision in his heart.
Half an hour later, he walked into a small two-story loft with the signboard of "Hundred Treasures House" hanging on it.
This shop was considered medium-sized in the entire valley. Inside, there were several rows of wooden shelves with many items placed on them. Moreover, there were two waiters introducing the shop to the customers. There was also an old shopkeeper sitting behind the counter.
The business of the loft seemed to be exceptionally good. There was an endless stream of cultivators entering and exiting the place.
After walking in for a while, Liu Ming finally found an opportunity to walk in front of the counter. He placed a box of items on it and said to the old man:
"First, give me an estimate of the value of the items inside. After that, we can discuss other matters."
Hearing this, the old man didn't seem to be surprised in the slightest. Instead, he nodded with a smile and said:
"Okay, please wait a moment. This old man will take a look first." As he said this, the old man opened the jade box and looked inside with rapt attention. However, his expression immediately changed slightly.
"What a strong aura, this is …" The old man was surprised. His finger moved and picked up a white object the size of a soybean. It was the bone residue left behind by the green-haired giant rat.
"May I ask what kind of monster left this?" The old man was worthy of being the shopkeeper of this place. He immediately recognized the item in his hand and asked.
"It was left behind by a giant rat monster." Liu Ming didn't intend to hide it and said frankly.
"It was left behind by a rat monster. This is a bit strange. Generally speaking, it was rare for rat-type demonic beasts to advance to a higher level. Wait a moment, let me measure the true strength of this thing's aura. "Hearing this, the old man said with a trace of doubt on his face.
Naturally, Liu Ming wouldn't object. He was also curious about the level of the green-haired giant rat.
So the old man bent down and took out a palm-sized silver magic plate from below. After placing the bone residue in his hand on it, he made a hand sign with one hand.
In the next moment, the entire magic plate hummed. At the same time, pieces of unknown runes appeared and were constantly changing.
"Advanced Liquid Level Late Stage!" In the next moment, the old man let out a breath, as if he couldn't believe what he saw in front of his eyes. He hurriedly cast the spell again, but the runes on the magic plate were still the same as before.
"Wait a moment. These things are too valuable. I'm afraid I can't make the decision. I must ask the owner to come and talk to him personally. Keep the things and wait in the VIP room. "After the old man let out a long breath, he said to Liu Ming quickly.
"Okay, then I'll have to trouble you." When Liu Ming heard the words "Advanced Liquid Level Late Stage", he was also shocked.
One had to know that the highest he estimated in his heart was only the Early Liquid Level. Didn't this mean that the green-haired giant rat was a real high-level monster that was not far from the Crystal Level?
There was a gap of two whole levels. The value of the bone residue was naturally a world of difference. No wonder the flesh of the giant rat had such an effect. Even if he didn't refine it into a pill and directly consumed it, his Fa Li was pushed to the Middle Spirit Apostle level.
The woman named Ye Tianmei could easily kill this monster. She must be a Crystal Level expert of the same generation as the Martial Uncle of his sect.
When Liu Ming thought of the beautiful face of the woman in the palace dress, he couldn't help but have a very strange feeling in his heart.
