The stall owner was a man who looked to be in his thirties. His face was cold, and he did not like to talk. Even if someone asked him about his items, he did not seem to care. As for his strength …
Happy sized up the man who stood steadily on the spot like an iron tower. He thought about it for a long time and came to an unknown conclusion. If he did not attack, it was very difficult to determine a person's strength, but his instincts told him that the man was definitely not a simple person, even if the items in his stall were all gold, silver, and jade items that did not seem to have much practical use.
Happy cast a few more glances at the items in the man's stall.
They were indeed very normal!
They were all very common utensils, and they were worth thousands of taels of silver crumbs or even tens of thousands of taels of silver crumbs. He did not know why the people around him were so hardworking. They could get a lot of these things just by grinding in an ancient tomb.
Happy looked away and was prepared to leave when he suddenly shuddered. He was pulled back by his own gaze. The items in the stall were still the same, but Happy's expression became incredibly strange.
He cast the man a glance, and Happy's expression became calm again. He pushed himself off the horse and jumped down nimbly. Then, he held the reins and arrived in front of the stall.
"Brother, can I ask you a question?"
"Speak."
During that period of time, the man paid a lot of attention to Happy. Perhaps it was because he was riding a horse, but when he saw Happy take the initiative to jump off the horse and ask him a question, the lines on his face turned slightly gentle, and he spoke concisely.
'How callous.'
"Heh, I want to know where you got these things from." While he spoke, Happy pointed at the items in front of the man.
The players around him were all dumbfounded.
"You're not from Yangzhou, right?"
A voice in the crowd helped the man answer Happy's question.
"This isn't a secret in Yangzhou. Not long ago, someone discovered a hidden ancient tomb outside the city. There are Dirt Puppets and Stone Giants in there. They're very powerful, and most of the people who went in died. These things were found in the ancient tomb. That place is not too far away from here. If you ride a horse, you can reach it in around twenty to thirty minutes."
The man's expression did not change. He only nodded after the person answered to show his agreement.
Happy thought about it for a while.
"Dirt Puppets … Stone Giants?"
In fact, before he got off the horse, he realized that he was wrong.
The gold, silver, and jade items were indeed very normal, but that was three years later, when most of the martial artists were above Mystical Realm, and Life and Death Realm elites hid themselves. It was very easy for them to deal with NPCs in the middle stage of Blessed Realm, which was why these items became very common.
But now …
In the era of Blessed Realm, the Earth Puppets and Stone Giants guarding the ancient tomb had rather terrifying combat abilities and were not easy to deal with. It was no wonder then why so many people were watching by the side.
"You want to go to the ancient tomb?"
The built man by the side suddenly spoke, and his burning gaze was fixed on Happy.
Happy was silent for a few seconds before he nodded slowly.
"Yes, I want to take a look."
When he heard Happy's answer, the light in the man's eyes burned even brighter.
"You've reached Creation Realm?"
"No!"
"…"
Disappointment flashed briefly on the man's face, and he said, "Then I'd advise you not to go. The Dirt Puppets and Stone Giants guarding the ancient tomb are very powerful. Not only are they fast, their attacks are astonishing, and their defenses are extraordinary. Even if a few Blessed Realm fighters attack together, they will need to be very careful. They will need to take turns attacking them, and they will need more than half an hour to destroy them."
"Oh."
The players in the area were shocked.
Even though they knew about the existence of the ancient tomb, they did not know about the situation the built man had mentioned.
"Thank you for the reminder. I just want to go and take a look."
Happy smiled, but he started calculating in his heart. There was still half a month before the first stage of the banditry disaster ended. During this period of time, he wanted to train properly in Yangzhou and push his qi realm to Creation Realm so that he could learn his first high-tier martial art, Flowering Knights' Song.
Creation Realm …
Only when a person reached this realm would he have the right to learn the lowest-grade high-tier martial arts. Only then could he truly be considered to have the right to mingle in the world of martial artists. Otherwise, he would just be a nobody.
Happy.
Even though his abilities were pretty good, there was still a clear difference between him and a true Blessed Realm fighter.
In the beginning, if Orochimaru's Reversed Dual Rites Sword Technique had reached a higher realm, he would not have been able to use his advantage in various aspects to win. It would also have been impossible for him to become the champion of the offline martial arts tournament and obtain the high-tier martial art, Flowering Knights' Song.
Happy knew that the two months the game had been in operation and the time he had wasted in the game had already determined the difference between him and the strongest players!
If he wanted to show his strength in the storyline quest and get some benefits, it was definitely not enough with just Gate Realm and a few throwing knives.
Not only did he have to increase his qi realm, he also had to have a high-tier martial art that had a rather high qi realm.
Up until then, his qi points had already increased to 65.89.
As long as he pushed Flashing Sword Breaker and a few other martial arts that had reached the ninth or tenth realm to Grandmaster Realm, it would be more than enough to fulfill the requirements of Blessed Realm.
However!
The most difficult thing was still to increase the level of his high-tier martial arts.
Practicing high-tier martial arts was different from practicing low-tier martial arts.
There were many targets for low-tier martial arts to gain experience from. In the beginning, he could practice on wooden puppets at the first realm, then he could practice on some normal beasts, and after the fifth realm, he could practice on Gate Realm NPCs. Once he reached the peak of Gate Realm, he could choose from a wide range of targets.
But high-tier martial arts were completely different!
Due to the increase in qi realm and the evolution of low-tier martial arts in Grandmaster Realm, each move and style in high-tier martial arts was equivalent to the peak of low-tier martial arts.
It was impossible for normal opponents to increase the level of high-tier martial arts!
Besides, when it came to qi realms, enemies below Blessed Realm could not gain experience, and the level of their martial arts could not increase! Only by choosing opponents above Blessed Realm could they increase the level of their high-tier martial arts.
Once Happy realized that there was an ancient tomb in Yangzhou City, he was immediately tempted.
The passion for robbing tributes increased day by day, and he believed that most of the Blessed Realm martial artists would join in. They would ignore the training during this period of time and run over to train. It should be the quietest time.
"If you really want to train, come with me."
When Happy was about to leave, the tall man frowned and finally could not help but speak up.
Happy stopped and turned his head around to look at the stall owner.
"Hmm?"
The stall owner explained.
"I've been training in the ancient tomb over this period of time. If you want to go, we can go together. You can also wait for me to sell these things and buy some medicinal pills that can restore qi. We can go together." The stall owner had good judgment. As expected, he could tell that Happy's goal was not to earn money, but to train.
"Sure, I'll wait for you over there."
Happy could be considered a wily old fox. He knew how difficult it was to practice high-tier martial arts during the early stages of the game, and it required a lot of energy. He nodded and agreed to it.
When the tall man heard that Happy had tacitly agreed to train, a hint of delight appeared on his face, which was rarely seen on him. He exchanged a knowing glance with Happy and decided to pack up. "You're even more impatient than I am. Then I won't waste your time. Let's go. A few of my teammates have left, and I was just worried that I couldn't find anyone to train with …"
