In fact, Lan Ling had seen even more gold coins, especially the gold coin reserves of Monarch City Gold Inn. The entire ground was made of gold and silver.
However, he still felt very shocked at this moment, as though he was in a mountain of gold and a sea of silver.
Ever since Lan Ling came to this world, he had never received a pie that fell from the sky. Even though he was once rich enough to rival a country, it was also because of his hard work.
However, at this moment, it was really a huge pie that fell from the sky.
The territory of the Mirror Devil King was really a treasured land with good Feng Shui.
Not only was it an ownerless land, but it also had natural food reserves and gold reserves.
How many gold coins were there?
Lan Ling really couldn't estimate, but it shouldn't be a problem for it to be more than six digits. There were also various other weapons, gems, and so on.
At this moment, Lan Ling couldn't even count them, and there was no need for him to do so.
Wealth was already meaningless to Lan Ling. What he wanted was power that was close to the Dragon Emperor's, a powerful empire, and an army of over ten million Devil Race.
This batch of treasures would just lie here quietly, and he would treat it as the secret treasury of the future Flame Devil Tribe.
This place was indeed very safe, as it was more than a hundred meters underwater. Apart from Lan Ling, very few people could dive so deep without suffocating. Moreover, the water pressure here was already shocking enough. Moreover, there was no light here, and others wouldn't be able to see anything when they came in.
Lan Ling took out an animal hide bag and desperately stuffed the gold coins in it.
The gold coins that he had grabbed were not even worth mentioning to this mountain of gold.
The animal hide bag was filled with not only gold coins, but also some gems, a heavy dagger, and a sparkling white sword.
After filling the bag, Lan Ling carried it and floated up.
After a full two to three minutes, Lan Ling surfaced and handed over the huge animal hide bag.
"So heavy?" Suo Mo took the animal hide bag from Lan Ling.
It was filled with gold coins, so how could it not be heavy?
Lan Ling climbed out of the water and said to the human girl, "You've made a great contribution. There are indeed a lot of gold coins below."
Fortunately, the animal skin bag that Thamor had brought wasn't sewn, but had been completely peeled from a wild beast. Thus, it was able to bear a lot of weight.
Otherwise, the gold coins that Lan Ling had loaded up were a few hundred kilograms.
Suo Mo carried the bag of gold coins out of the cave and began to count them.
In the end, it was counted. There were a total of two thousand and three hundred gold coins, and each gold coin weighed three taels.
"And this dagger." Lan Ling handed it over.
"A raven-gold dagger." Solor was excited. Then, he stabbed the dagger into the hard ground.
The incomparably hard ground was directly pierced more than half a foot deep.
"Good treasure, truly a good treasure." Suo Mo said, "The value of this dagger exceeds this bag of gold coins."
This was a pure black gold dagger. Although it was only seven inches long, it weighed more than a hundred pounds.
In the human kingdom, a black-plated arrowhead cost ten silver coins.
To a brilliant blacksmith, one tael of black gold could be used to plaster three arrows. Overall, a catty of black gold was worth about seven or eight gold coins.
However, this item was also priceless. There was very little black gold in the market, and the entire human kingdom's mystic gold was basically in the hands of Bazhou.
According to Suo Mo, this black gold dagger was worth more than two thousand gold coins. It seemed like black gold was even more precious in the Savage World.
"I heard that there are many black gold mines in the Savage World, at least more than in the human kingdom," Lan Ling said.
Suo Mo said, "There are more, but they all have owners. Therefore, there is very little black gold circulating in the outside world. After your black gold dagger is melted and made into a black-plated greatsword, people will want it even for ten thousand gold coins. "
Lan Ling understood. The rarer a thing was, the greater its value.
Any expert would wish to obtain a divine weapon.
After coming to the Savage World, the weapons that Lan Ling had seen were basically iron swords. At most, they were steel swords.
He had never seen a black gold sword, a platinum gold sword, or a dragon gold sword.
Following that, Suo Mo picked out a snow-white stone from over ten gems and said, "This is called a spirit stone, and it is very precious. If you put it in water and bathe in the water, you can remove the scars on your body in at most half a year. Moreover, it can slow down the aging process and make women look younger."
Lan Ling was immediately astonished. This spirit stone was a woman's favorite.
…
"Let's go and buy the beast essence pill!" Suo Mo said.
The beast essence pill was the most important. It could help Lan Ling raise his cultivation in a short period of time. Only then would he be able to fight Du Yan.
Lan Ling said, "Where can we buy it?"
The beast essence pill was a priceless item. Moreover, the tribes in the Savage World were filled with hostility. It was impossible to swagger into a tribe to do business, unless the two tribes had an agreement.
For example, the Akara tribe and the Chimera tribe could trade with each other. However, this kind of agreement would be canceled very soon because the hostility between the two tribes was getting stronger and stronger.
It was impossible to buy something like the beast essence pill in either the Akara tribe or the Chimera tribe.
To these chiefs, the beast essence pill was equivalent to a strategic resource. Basically, they wouldn't take it out to sell.
Moreover, Lan Ling and Suo Mo could take out so many gold coins at once. It was simply impossible to explain to Constantine.
"There's a place where you can buy the beast essence pill, the Ghost Market!" Suo Mo said.
Lan Ling said, "There's a market in the Savage World?"
Of course there was a market in the Savage World, and the tribes had to trade with each other.
The so-called Ghost Market was actually the ruins of an ancient city. After countless years of changes, the ruins of the city had been buried and turned into an underground city.
The tribes in the Savage World also needed to trade with each other, but no matter where they went, they didn't feel at ease. Therefore, all the large transactions were done in the Ghost Market.
Close to ten tribes within a 500-mile radius all traded here.
It was rumored that anything could be bought in the Ghost Market, and the beast essence pill was no exception.
However, even though Suo Mo was the leader of the foreign tribe army, he didn't have the qualifications to enter the Ghost Market.
That was because one had to hand over three gold coins to enter the market. Everyone had to hand over three gold coins regardless of whether they bought something or not.
To a poor group like the foreign tribe army, how could they bear to go to the Ghost Market? It was already considered amazing to buy things in the tribal market.
"How far is the Ghost Market from here?" Lan Ling asked.
"About 130 miles." Suo Mo said, "Therefore, we have to go and return quickly."
The human race woman said, "Now that the Mirror Devil King is dead, the illusion in this area has disappeared. Anyone can enter. If we leave just like this, what if someone barges into our territory? "
The Flame Devil tribe hadn't been established yet, but this woman had already treated this area as her territory.
Suo Mo said, "Don't worry, this area has already become synonymous with death. Most people won't approach it. The surrounding tribes will stay close to 50 miles away from this area even if they hunt. "
Although this was the case, Lan Ling still wanted to occupy this land as soon as possible and establish his tribe. Otherwise, once other people knew that this area was no longer a forbidden death zone, they would definitely bring a powerful army to occupy it.
Once it was occupied, it would be almost impossible to take it back.
Not to mention, this area with a radius of 50 miles was definitely a treasured land. Not only were there astonishing treasures, but there were also astonishing food reserves.
"Uncle, we have to speed up the pace of independence. Within two months at the latest, we have to establish our own tribe and bring all the brothers from the foreign tribe army here." Lan Ling said, "Once others discover this place, it will really be too late."
Suo Mo nodded and said, "After your duel with Du Yan, we will immediately plan to become independent and establish our own tribe!"
…
They left the territory that used to be the Mirror Devil King.
Suo Mo, Lan Ling, and Ah Mo ran with all their might towards the Ghost Market that was over 100 miles away.
Ah Mo was that human race woman. She was already 37 years old this year. Perhaps it was because of her race, but she was slightly younger than the 37 year old human woman.
Seeing that she was wearing tree branch armor and very indecent clothes made of leaves, Suo Mo gave her his coat to wear.
After that, she looked at Suo Mo with an incomparably passionate gaze and didn't conceal her affection in the slightest.
Or it could be said that she was attracted by the righteous, powerful, and warm energy aura on Suo Mo's body the moment she saw him.
She had already said that she wasn't interested in a life of splendor and wealth. She only wanted to have children. Therefore, her passionate gaze was always fixated on Suo Mo. She couldn't wait to have children with him at any time. This made Suo Mo feel very unnatural.
The three of them ran for close to a day and a night without rest. Finally, they arrived at the Ghost Market that was over 100 miles away.
Lan Ling noticed that this Ghost Market was in the east and was close to the sea. That was because the land here was in a state of desolation and was riddled with scars. There were very few trees, flowers, and practically no wild beasts.
The entire southern wilderness seemed to have experienced something terrifying. Within a few hundred miles of the sea, it was all lifeless land.
The entrance to the Ghost Market was a huge fissure.
That's right, it was a fissure in the earth. It was a few thousand meters long and a dozen meters wide.
There were dozens of barbarian cavalry guarding the huge fissure. They didn't say anything when they saw Lan Ling and the others and directly extended their hands.
Suo Mo counted out nine gold coins and placed them in his hands.
Immediately, dozens of barbarian cavalry left and shouted, "Release the bridge!"
Then, a wooden suspension bridge was lowered amidst a series of creaking sounds.
Following the suspension bridge, Lan Ling and the others walked into the huge fissure.
There was already a flight of stairs that snaked downwards into the depths of the underground city ruins. Lan Ling could already faintly see lights inside.
They had to be very careful when walking the stairs. Once they fell, they would fall into a bottomless abyss.
After walking a few thousand meters of stairs, the three of them finally entered the famous Ghost Market.
Everyone took a simple mask and wore it. The mask only revealed the eyes and nose, and the faces of malicious spirits were drawn on it.
This was also the origin of the Ghost Market's name.
Everyone who entered the Ghost Market to trade didn't reveal their true faces.
After entering the Ghost Market, Lan Ling realized that the area was very large.
After all, this used to be the ruins of an ancient city. There were wide streets, deep and serene houses on both sides of the streets, and these shops were inside these houses.
Of course, there were also people who set up stalls.
Some people obtained a treasure by chance and ran to the Ghost Market to sell it. After paying an entrance fee of three gold coins, they would set up a stall on the streets. Whether they could sell it or not, and how much they could sell it for, depended entirely on luck.
Suo Mo brought Lan Ling into the first shop.
The house here was so old that it was unrecognizable. Rather than calling it a house, it would be better to call it a cave.
There were dim candles inside, and not many things could be seen. There was only a stooped barbarian old man sitting there, dozing off.
Some of these shop owners weren't the real owners. This was because these shops were usually opened by the rulers of the surrounding tribes.
Every tribe more or less had some treasures or requested to buy some things. Therefore, they would open a shop in the Ghost Market all year round to trade, and the people looking after the shop were usually the chieftain's trusted aides.
Previously, Goufu had been sent to the Ghost Market by Constantine to manage the shop. However, because he had embezzled money, he was dismissed from this cushy job.
Although these shops were permanently located in the Ghost Market, they might not have anything to sell.
For example, the shop in front of them was completely empty.
"Do you have Beast Essence Pills?" Suo Mo asked.
The dozing old man shook his head and didn't reply.
"The price isn't a problem." Suo Mo patted the gold coins on his back.
The old man's eyelids opened, and a greedy gaze flashed across his eyes. However, he still shook his head.
Suo Mo brought Lan Ling into the second shop. This shop had some weapons, armor, and some clothes.
Suo Mo bought some clothes, and they were very expensive. They were much more expensive than in human countries.
"Do you have Beast Essence Pills?" Suo Mo asked.
"No." The shop owner replied.
Suo Mo said, "The price isn't a problem."
The shop owner replied, "No."
…
The third shop, the fourth shop …
Suo Mo brought Lan Ling all the way to the end of the street, and the answer he got was the same. There weren't any Beast Essence Pills.
This was really strange. Beast Essence Pills were very precious, but it wasn't to the extent where one couldn't buy one after coming to the Ghost Market. What was going on?
At the 17th shop, Suo Mo paid the price of two gold coins and finally got the answer.
A few days ago, there was a mysterious person who bought all the Beast Essence Pills in the entire Ghost Market. Moreover, it was 1600 gold coins per pill.
Suo Mo was instantly stunned when he heard this.
There were at least a dozen Beast Essence Pills in the entire Ghost Market. That would be over 20,000 gold coins.
Who was it? Who was so generous?
There were more than a dozen tribes around, but none of them could afford to spend so much money.
Constantine could take out 20,000 gold coins if he clenched his teeth, but he couldn't use it all to buy Beast Essence Pills.
The first pill would have a great effect, but the second pill would have a very weak effect. The third pill would have no effect at all, and it would be life-threatening instead.
Moreover, every chief had at least a dozen Beast Essence Pills in storage as a reward for the tribe's warriors. It was impossible for them to spend so much money to buy them.
In that case, was it Lan Ling who did it right?
That was even more impossible. Lan Ling was considered a figure in the Chimera Tribe, but among the surrounding tribes, other than the Wildhorse Tribe and the Akara Tribe, who knew who Lan Ling was?
After going through all the shops in the Ghost Market, there wasn't a single Beast Essence Pill.
Lan Ling's luck was really bad to the extreme.
Becoming a seven-star Magic Warrior was the bottom line. Without reaching this level of cultivation, one might as well not duel with Du Yan. It was certain death.
There were only four days left until the duel. The Beast Essence Pill was the only chance to break through in a short period of time.
Without the Beast Essence Pill, it was impossible to break through to seven-star Magic Warrior.
At this moment, Lan Ling suddenly felt someone following him. He closed his eyes and sensed the person's energy aura. It was actually somewhat familiar.
Immediately, he couldn't help but turn his head.
He immediately saw a figure shrouded in a black cloak with a ghost mask on her face.
Seeing that she was discovered by Lan Ling, this person didn't panic. After a slight hesitation, she stepped forward and said, "You want Beast Essence Pills, right?"
That's right, it's her!
Even though she used a man's voice, Lan Ling immediately sensed that it was a woman.
Moreover, it was a familiar woman. The daughter of the Wildhorse Tribe's chief, Duo Ning!
Unexpectedly, she was actually in the Ghost Bazaar.
The Wildhorse Tribe had already perished and been conquered by the Akara Tribe. Chief Duo Duo led the remaining few hundred people to escape from the battlefield.
Now that more than a month had passed, he didn't know where the remnants of the Wildhorse Tribe were and how many people were still alive.
"You want Beast Essence Pills, right?" Duo Ning asked again in a hoarse voice.
"That's right. Do you have them?" Zoro asked.
"Yes, but the price is very expensive." Duo Ning's voice changed.
"How much?" Zoro asked.
Duo Ning said, "How much do you have?"
Her gaze fell directly on the big bag of gold coins on Suo Mo's back.
She was asking for an exorbitant price.
The normal price of a Beast Essence Pill was about 1,000 to 1,100 gold coins.
The bag of gold coins on Suo Mo's back was no less than 2,000 gold coins.
Suo Mo didn't bargain and said, "Give me the money and I'll give you the goods!"
Duo Ning was stunned. She was originally waiting for the other party to bargain, but she didn't expect Suo Mo to be so straightforward.
She took a deep breath and looked around. Then, she took out a box from her bosom and opened it.
Inside, there was a pill with a blood-red glow.
That's right, this was a Beast Essence Pill.
Suo Mo handed over the entire bag of gold coins and took away her Beast Essence Pill.
Finally bought it!
To Suo Mo, these gold coins were nothing. As long as Lan Ling could survive the duel, as long as he could make a breakthrough in his cultivation, not to mention 2,000 gold coins, he wouldn't even blink an eye even if it was 10,000 gold coins.
"Goodbye!" Duo Ning carried the heavy gold coins on her back and disappeared from Lan Ling, Suo Mo, and the rest's vision.
Lan Ling didn't have any intention of talking to her.
Even though Lan Ling wanted to subdue the Wildhorse Tribe, they weren't miserable enough yet.
However, it was obvious that they weren't far from the end of the line. This Beast Essence Pill was probably the only thing Duo Ning could take out to sell.
She might use these 2,000 gold coins to buy weapons, food, meat, and warhorses.
But …
How long could the hundreds of remnants of the Wildhorse Tribe hold on with these things?
There was basically only one outcome for the barbarians who lost their tribe, and that was death!
"Let's go and find a place to consume the Beast Essence Pill. Then, we'll have a blood bath and temper our muscles and bones!"
