Jin Fatso smiled and said, "I found it. It is in Savage Forest's Beast King Valley. Here is the information on Savage Forest's Beast King Valley, free of charge. This Fat Lord is generous, right?"
Xiao Chen rejoiced in his heart. He took the information on Beast King Valley from Kim Tae-ho and looked at it carefully. After a while, Xiao Chen frowned.
The interior of Savage Forest was very dangerous. There were many high ranked Spirit Beasts. Even Martial Grand Masters could only enter from the periphery.
If one wanted to enter the true core region, one had to be at least a Martial Saint. Furthermore, even a Martial Saint would not be able to move around unimpeded.
Every year in White Water City, there would be news of Martial Saint experts dying in Savage Forest. According to the rumors, there were ancient Savage Beasts in Savage Forest. They were even more horrifying than Martial Kings.
Beast King Valley was located in the core region of Savage Forest. It was a burial ground. When high ranked Spirit Beasts reached the end of their lifespan, they would take the initiative to go there and die. That was where their faith lay.
With Xiao Chen's strength, wanting to enter alone was simply a pipe dream. Against a Spirit Beast that was as strong as a Martial Saint, he would not even be able to reach Beast King Valley; he would die halfway.
When Kim Tae-ho saw Xiao Chen's expression of deep thought, he smiled and said, "Brother Xiao, stop thinking about it. With your strength, you will not be able to reach there."
Xiao Chen thought of something and said, "I will not be able to reach there with my strength. Could it be that you have some other method?"
Fatso chuckled and opened the golden folding fan in his hand. He smiled and said, "Did you see the notice posted on the first floor of Liushang Pavilion?"
Xiao Chen nodded, "En, I saw it. I have never seen such a shameless notice before."
The fatty smiled awkwardly and said, "How can you say that I'm shameless? It is just that there is a difference in intelligence between people. "
"Let's not talk about this anymore. This is this Fat Lord's idea. After today, all the cultivators in White Water City will know the location of the Ancient Remnant."
A strange look flickered in Xiao Chen's eyes as he said, "Are you trying to muddy the waters?"
Jin Fatso smiled complacently. The fats on his chubby face jiggled continuously. "That's right. The appearance of this Ancient Remnant treasure map has attracted many cultivators. Among them, those noble clans naturally do not care about the Jiang Clan. They can directly ask for the map from him.
"As for the other strong cultivators, although they are very strong and are Martial Saints, they do not dare to offend the Jiang Clan. Hence, if they want to obtain the blueprint, they can only think of other ways. This Fat Lord gave them a chance. Conservatively speaking, there are at least fifty Martial Saints who do not belong to any of the major powers that have come to White Water City. "
More than fifty Martial Saints in addition to an even larger number of Martial Grand Masters. Such a team would definitely not be weaker than any of the major powers.
Xiao Chen continued to think in his heart. With such an alluring place, not only would it attract some independent Martial Saints, it might even attract some Martial Kings, just that they are hidden somewhere.
Thinking about it this way, this trip to the Ancient Remnant is much more dangerous than I thought. It was laughable that I thought I could go in alone at the start. That would be no different from sending myself to death.
Jin Fatso continued his analysis, "Think about it, if the Ancient Remnant really exists, who will have the last laugh? It will definitely be those noble clans. Whoever is stronger will be able to obtain the greatest benefits.
"For people like us who are not strong, if we want to compete with them, we can only muddy the waters. The muddier the better. That way, we will be able to fish in troubled waters."
Xiao Chen thought about it carefully. It was indeed as Fatso said. For lone rangers like them, if they wanted to gain something in the Ancient Remnant, it was not realistic to rely on their own strength to contend with the noble clans.
"Do you have any empty rooms in Liushang Pavilion? I would like to rest here for three days," Xiao Chen made up his mind and was no longer in a rush. He might as well take this opportunity to recuperate.
Last night, when he left, he was targeted by a group of Jiang Clan cultivators. Although there were no Martial Grand Masters, he still spent a lot of effort to deal with them.
Now, he urgently needed a place where no one would disturb him to recuperate. Kim Tae-ho was a very mysterious person. Xiao Chen thought that with the background of Liushang Pavilion, he would not be afraid of the Jiang Clan.
Fatso smiled, "Are you offering a refuge service? No problem, there is no business that this Fat Lord cannot do. Ten thousand silver taels for a day."
Ten thousand silver taels for a day, that would be thirty thousand silver taels for three days. A hundred silver taels was equivalent to one gold tael. This Fatso was really black-hearted, spending three hundred gold taels just to stay for three days.
"Then never mind, I will just find a place to stay for three days," this was a classic case of being taken advantage of. Naturally, Xiao Chen was not willing to leave without even looking back.
Fatso quickly pulled Xiao Chen back, "Brother Xiao, why are you always so anxious? I have not finished speaking. Actually, I can let you stay in this room for free."
Kim Tae-ho whispered something into Xiao Chen's ear. After that, he smiled wretchedly, "Brother Xiao, what do you think?"
Xiao Chen thought for a while and said, "I will give it to you in three days."
Three days passed in the blink of an eye. All the cultivators in White Water City knew the location of the Ancient Remnant, but no one dared to go there.
Although Beast King Valley was a burial ground, there might be a Beast King at the end of its lifespan that had not died yet. For a Spirit Beast that could enter Beast King Valley, as long as it was still breathing, it could easily kill a Martial Grand Master.
Furthermore, no one dared to casually enter the inner regions of Savage Forest. These people all fixed their gazes on the noble clans, hoping that they could open a path.
Hope was beautiful, but reality was cruel. On this day, a black dot suddenly appeared in the southern sky of White Water City, flying towards Savage Forest.
When the black dot neared, a huge black warship appeared in the vision of the crowd. There was a black flag on the warship, with a big 'Ji' character written on it.
"The Ji Clan's Secret Treasure, the Black Royal Warship, is really flying over. They are going to clash with the Guiyi Marquis's Golden Warship!"
Furthermore, from the direction of the Sishui Prefecture's capital, a small white dot flew over. When it neared, it was indeed a huge ice bird. On the back of the ice bird was an ice palace that gave off a cold light.
"The Duanmu Clan's Profound Ice Palace is flying over as well. It's over, it looks like they are preparing to descend into Beast King Valley from the sky."
"Damn it, I was still waiting for them to open a path. All of them are flying away from the sky."
"Even with your intelligence, how could these noble clans not think of something like this? They are too naive! "
When the many cultivators in White Water City saw the situation, they could no longer remain calm. They started to form groups and prepare to enter the inner regions of Savage Forest. At this moment, a few strong Martial Saints jumped out and called for everyone to enter Beast King Valley together.
Xiao Chen stood in front of the window and looked calmly at the sky. He did not get too excited about the three Secret Treasures that were flying towards the inner regions of Savage Forest.
"Bang! Bang! Bang! "
Fatso opened the door to Xiao Chen's room and walked in, "Brother Xiao, the three days are up. Have you prepared the things?"
Xiao Chen did not say anything. He took out a wooden sculpture and handed it to Kim Tae-ho. Fatso received it happily and carefully placed it into a Spatial Ring on his hand.
Xiao Chen felt excited. Although the ten Spatial Rings on Fatso's hands were very gaudy, every one of them was a Spatial Ring. To be able to possess so many Spatial Rings, his strength and background were definitely not simple.
"Do you have any weapons or equipment that you can sell to me?" Xiao Chen asked in a probing manner. The inner regions of Savage Forest were very dangerous. He had always wanted to purchase some equipment, but he could not find any channels to do so.
Kim Tae-ho took out ten arrows and chuckled, "I knew you would ask this. This Fat Lord has already prepared them for you. Ten Essence Light Arrows, ten thousand gold taels, no bargaining."
Xiao Chen rejoiced in his heart. These Essence Light Arrows were really prepared for him. The might of the Soul Slayer Bow in his hand was extraordinary and he was lacking some arrows. With these Essence Light Arrows, the might of the Soul Slayer Bow would definitely double.
However, the price was quite exorbitant. It was almost equivalent to his entire net worth. Even so, Xiao Chen did not hesitate to buy it. After all, other items could be bargained for. However, there was no room for bargaining for such a rare arrow.
Every year, the Heavenly Craft Manor would only sell a thousand Essence Light Arrows. This was something that could not be bought even if one had money. For Fatso to be able to obtain ten, it was already very good.
After paying, Xiao Chen put away the Essence Light Arrows. Suddenly, he thought of something and said, "The Earth Ranked Battle Armor that Yan Qianyun wore yesterday is with you, right?"
Kim Tae-ho said, "What are you trying to do? That is not for sale. It is worth at least one million gold taels. Furthermore, you do not have any money on you right now."
Xiao Chen smiled faintly and said, "If I did not knock him out, how could you pluck him until there was nothing left? Hence, I definitely have a share of this Earth Ranked Battle Armor."
Fatso said angrily, "Don't speak nonsense. Although this Fat Lord loves money, I definitely do not have any perverted hobbies. Those are just rumors."
The two of them bickered for a long time. Finally, Xiao Chen wrote a promissory note for five hundred thousand gold taels and took the Earth Ranked Battle Armor away.
After Xiao Chen left, Kim Tae-ho held the promissory note and chuckled, "Now, I have completely trapped you. After all, that Battle Armor is a windfall."
After a while, there was the sound of footsteps. Su Xiaoxiao walked over leisurely while carrying her zither. She asked softly, "Did you give him my Essence Light Arrows?"
The fatty quickly put away the promissory note and said righteously, "According to the little girl's orders, I have already given the Essence Light Arrow to Xiao Chen as a friend."
"That's good. We should go as well."
--- In the periphery of Savage Forest, Xiao Chen took big strides and quickly headed into the depths of Savage Forest. Along the way, there were Spirit Beast corpses everywhere.
The Spirit Beast corpses that people normally fought over were now ignored. Xiao Chen even saw a few Rank 3 Spirit Beast corpses lying on the side of the road. No one bothered to look through them.
Xiao Chen stopped walking and took out a small knife. He started fiddling with the Rank 3 Spirit Beast corpses. Even the most ordinary Rank 3 Spirit Beast Spirit Core was worth at least a thousand silver taels.
Xiao Chen was currently extremely poor. He even owed Fatso a large debt. There was no need for him to be lazy to pick up money when he saw it.
"This person is really stupid. Now is the time to fight for time, yet he still has the time to dig out Spirit Cores. Furthermore, they are left behind by others."
