"What a pity, this is a great opportunity. If I could get my hands on this Sacred Mountain, I might have a chance to peek into the true essence of the Emperor Realm."
Emperor Bai let out a long sigh.
Ning Qi smiled. "How could the Tiandao Family let such an opportunity fall into the hands of others?"
"That's true."
Emperor Bai nodded.
With that, his gaze suddenly fell on Ning Yi, and his eyes moved slightly. "This is a puppet?"
"A Mohist Puppet. Back on the Blue Water Star Lake Island, the Taichu Chamber of Commerce held an Immortal Ascension Gathering.
Ning Qi smiled and nodded.
"A Mohist Puppet? No wonder it's so strange. His strength has probably already reached the Taiyi Realm? "
Emperor Bai walked up to Ning Yi curiously and sized him up. Then, his expression suddenly changed as he looked at Ning Qi. "This puppet has a soul?"
"Indeed, but his soul is different from ordinary people. It's refined by some secret technique of the Mohist Family."
Ning Qi said.
"As expected of an ancient family, to be able to develop such a puppet, and have the means to refine souls. Pity that these legacies were lost in the Great War of Immortals and Demons …"
Emperor Bai sighed.
Ning Qi smiled without saying anything. Even though he trusted Emperor Bai, things like the Mohist Family's secret technique were not suitable to appear in the Immortal Realm. At least, before Ning Qi could fight against an Immortal Emperor, he could not reveal the existence of the Mohist Family's secret technique. Otherwise, it would definitely draw the wrath of the Tiandao Family.
In the following period of time, Ning Qi and Emperor Bai sat and discussed Dao, constantly paying attention to the changes of Sacred Mountain. More and more immortals came to the vicinity of Sacred Mountain. The rules set by Emperor Bai and the others no longer existed. Even Celestial Immortals could stand far away and watch Sacred Mountain. The immortals in the mountains near the Divine Mountain had opened up cave abodes after cave abodes. Even the mountain range where Ning Qi and White-Emperor Immortal Lord were at had no less than five hundred abodes. But aside from the arcane immortals who had initially wanted the treasured lands of Ning Qi and White-Emperor Immortal Lord, the two of them had been scared witless.
After that, no one dared to come to the peak. Year after year passed. In the blink of an eye, another four or five years had passed. Several large market squares had appeared in the nearby mountains. Although these immortals didn't dare approach the Godmountain, this pocket dimension had Daoprotector Fruits, as well as other immortal grasses, spirit herbs, spirit fruits, and spirit materials.
In the Immortal World, all of them could be considered to be geniuses of the heavens with deep resources. Quite a few people took out things that they didn't have any use for and traded with others, causing these markets to become more and more bustling, and it developed into a large-scale trade fair.
"Brother Bai, it's quite boring to sit here all day. I'll go take a stroll around those markets and see if there are any treasures I can pick up."
One day, Ning Qi suddenly stood up, greeted Emperor Bai, and brought Ning Yi to a large market not far away.
In the distance, Meng Qi and the other immortal lords were still sitting cross-legged around the God Mountain. After so many years, the God Mountain had not changed much.
After several years of development, the once uninhabited mountain range had become a bustling market. Both Heavenly Immortals and Arcane Immortals had set up stalls in harmony, and the sounds of hawking could be heard without end. There was also an endless stream of people walking in and out of the stalls, their eyes sparkling and their gazes like Ning Qi.
However, most of the immortals were no fools. They knew what they were selling very well, which was why they were constantly haggling over the price with spittle flying everywhere.
"This Daoprotector Fruit of mine is extra. You can trade it with spirit fruits of the same level. If you can't afford it, then don't come and join in the fun."
An Arcane Immortal sat on a blue rock, a Daoprotector Fruit in his palm. Many Heavenly Immortals, Golden Immortals, and Grand Luo were gathered around the rock, staring at the Daoprotector Fruit fervently.
Whether or not one could obtain the Daoprotector Fruit depended on one's luck and strength. If one's luck was bad, the fruit could be snatched away in the next moment.
Not all immortals were blessed with great fortune. Most of the immortals in the market could not gather enough Daoprotector Fruits to leave the secret realm.
Many fervent gazes fell upon the Daoprotector Fruit, but how could the owners of those gazes bring out spirit fruits of the same level? They could only watch from afar.
Ning Qi swept his gaze around and walked to another stall. He already had too many Daoprotector Fruits in his spatial bag.
"Five inferior-grade sage weapons for five Daoprotector Fruits!"
Over at another stall, an Arcane Immortal had laid out five inferior-grade sage weapons that contained more than two hundred Dao Forces. Logically speaking, Daoprotector Fruits were more valuable than inferior-grade sage weapons, but there was no lack of Heavenly Immortals and Golden Immortals in the market. They might have obtained quite a few Daoprotector Fruits by chance, but inferior-grade sage weapons were more attractive to them. That was why the Arcane Immortal was not worried that no one would come up to ask.
In a short time, several waves of immortals went up to ask for more sage weapons, but the Arcane Immortal refused all of them.
"Eh?"
Ning Qi only glanced at them curiously. In the end, he discovered that one of the low-grade dao treasures was a bit unusual. It was a staff with golden hoops on both ends. Its entire body was pale gold, but when Ning Qi looked at its attributes, he discovered that its grade was three question marks.
However, the aura on the surface was not much different from that of a sage weapon.
"Five inferior-grade sage weapons for five Daoprotector Fruits?"
A beautiful figure appeared in front of the stall and asked the Arcane Immortal plainly.
"So it's Fairy Ji. Fairy Ji, you're also interested in these five sage weapons?"
The Arcane Immortal clearly recognized Ji Sijun and a trace of suspicion flashed in his eyes. Logically speaking, Ji Sijun, who was ranked ninth on the Arcane Immortal Leaderboard, should have a high-grade sage weapon, or at least a mid-grade sage weapon. Why would she be interested in a sage weapon?
"It can be used by a few juniors in the clan. Are you going to trade or not?"
Ji Sijun glanced at him indifferently.
The Arcane Immortal was slightly startled and then smiled awkwardly. "Of course I'll trade. Why wouldn't I?"
"I'll offer six Daoprotector Fruits."
Ning Qi chuckled as he walked to the stall and said to the Arcane Immortal.
"It's you!"
Ji Sijun looked at Ning Qi and subconsciously took a few steps back. Then, she felt that this was too embarrassing and took a few more steps forward, glaring at Ning Qi and Ning Yi.
The Arcane Immortal was even more suspicious when he saw that someone was fighting for the Daoprotector Fruits. He sized up Ning Qi and then Ji Sijun to see what was going on.
"I let you escape last time. I didn't expect you to come back again. I wonder what backdoor you used?"
Ning Qi smiled.
"It's none of your business!"
Ji Sijun snorted. "I've already caught the eye of Senior Ji Wangu and he wants to take me as his disciple. If you make a move against me, you'll definitely be killed by Senior Ji Wangu after we leave!"
Ning Qi frowned slightly. This was a problem. He didn't have the strength to go against an Emperor Realm powerhouse for the time being.
However, the truth of Ji Sijun's words still needed to be investigated.
