A moment later, Lu Ye sat in a room of the Merchant Union, waiting.
A steward in charge of transactions walked in and politely bowed before asking, "What would you like to buy?"
"A spirit artifact that can change one's appearance."
Lu Ye stated his request.
He had already considered this when he was in the Spirit Stream Battlefield. Because the various sects in the Myriad Devil Ridge had spread his image, no matter where he went, he would be easily recognized and targeted.
The reason why he didn't buy a spirit artifact that could change one's appearance was because he had Hu Po with him.
It was a well-known fact that Sect Destroyer Leaf had a White Tiger Monster Beast by his side. Therefore, even if he tried to disguise himself, as long as he still had the mark of Amber, anyone who saw him would associate him with Sect Destroyer Leaf. There was no difference whether he was disguised or not.
However, things were different now. In the Myriad Beast Realm, he had obtained a spirit beast pouch. If he needed to hide his identity in the future, he could put Hu Po in the spirit beast pouch and use a spirit artifact to change his appearance. Who would know that he was Lu Yiye of the Jade Blood Sect?
After being in the Cloud River Battlefield for so many days, no one had recognized him because the Cloud River Battlefield and the Spirit Stream Battlefield were two completely different worlds. Being able to call the wind and summon the rain in the Spirit Stream Battlefield didn't mean that he could do whatever he wanted in the Cloud River Battlefield.
In such a large battlefield, there were many capable people, so no one would deliberately look for a cultivator who had just reached the Cloud River Realm.
However, Lu Ye had a feeling that as his strength increased, the Myriad Devil Ridge would definitely continue to target him. It was better to find a way to change his appearance as soon as possible.
"A spirit artifact that can change one's appearance …" The steward revealed a difficult expression, "Esteemed guest's request is not easy to satisfy."
"Out of stock?"
"Esteemed guest may not know, but spirit artifacts that can change one's appearance and aura are generally not sold in the Merchant Union. If Esteemed guest really wants to buy one, you can go to the Tianji Treasury to take a look. This kind of special spirit artifact can only be bought with merit points, but the price is also very expensive."
Lu Ye hadn't checked the price of this spirit artifact, so he asked, "How expensive is it?"
"It's going to start at over 10,000 merit points!"
It really wasn't cheap. Although Lu Ye had a lot of merit points, if he were to spend 10,000 merit points to buy such a spirit artifact, it was still debatable whether it was worth it or not. After all, he had only thought about it and didn't have to buy it.
"Moreover, this kind of spirit weapon is generally more fragile. If it is affected in a battle, it will be easily damaged." "If you simply want to hide your appearance, I recommend you to buy a set of masks. There are many types of masks, and you can wear them according to your preferences and mood. Moreover, they are not expensive. Even if they are damaged in battle, the loss will not be too great."
"Facebook?"
"If you would like to see it, I can bring it over."
"Go get it!"
"Please wait a moment." With that, the steward turned and left.
A moment later, he came back with something that looked like a dressing box. He placed the dressing box in front of Lu Ye and then pressed the buttons on both sides of the box. With a click, the box opened, and the contents of the box were immediately imprinted into Lu Ye's eyes.
The top half of the box was a mirror that could be used to reflect one's appearance, while the bottom half was lined with layers of exquisite mask-like items. It seemed that these were the so-called masks.
Lu Ye swept his eyes over them. There were a total of eight masks. Placed at the top was the mask of an evil spirit with a green face and fangs, while the second was the mask of a white-faced fox with a sharp mouth and hanging eyes. The masks below were also different in style.
"You can try it. This thing only needs a little Spirit Qi to maintain it on your face. It's as light as a feather. Compared to a spirit artifact that can change one's appearance, the consumption of this mask is almost negligible," the steward enthusiastically recommended.
Lu Ye checked it briefly before taking out the white-faced fox mask with a sharp mouth and hanging eyes. He raised his hand and placed it on his face. There was no need to adjust it as the mask stuck to his skin.
A cool feeling came over him, but that feeling quickly disappeared. If it wasn't for the fact that this mask required him to use a little Spirit Qi to maintain it, Lu Ye wouldn't even have felt that there was something on his face. He turned his head and looked around. There was nothing obstructing his vision. He then lowered his head to look at the mirror on the top half of the box. A white-faced face with a sharp mouth and hanging eyes appeared in front of him. Below the fox's hanging eyes were thick purple eyeshadow, making it look very ghostly.
This thing was quite interesting. It could be seen that the person who made this mask had put a lot of effort into it. Every pattern on the mask was meticulously carved.
More importantly, there were a total of eight masks in this set, and they could be used interchangeably.
Lu Ye took off the fox mask on his face and placed another mask on his face. He lowered his head to look at the mirror. What appeared in the mirror was the image of a seductive woman with rosy cherry lips.
Squatting at the side, Hu Po faintly let out a suppressed laugh.
Lu Ye expressionlessly took off the seductive woman's mask and put it into the box. He then patted the box and asked, "How much is it?"
The manager immediately became spirited. "It's not expensive. Only three hundred and twenty mid-rank Spirit Stones."
This price really wasn't expensive. After splitting it up, each mask was only forty mid-rank Spirit Stones.
Thinking back to the Spirit Stream Battlefield, when he first entered the Heavenly Secret Commerce Union, he was embarrassed and had to haggle with the manager. Now that he was rich and had long passed the stage of haggling over every penny, he straightforwardly gave up three hundred and twenty mid-rank Spirit Stones and settled the deal.
Putting away the box, Lu Ye said, "I want a room."
He didn't know if the young man who chased him before was secretly watching him, so to be safe, he decided to stay here for a night before leaving.
However, as long as that person wasn't stupid, he shouldn't continue to wait for him. After all, who didn't have a few powerful friends or fellow disciples? He also didn't know Lu Ye's background. If he continued to wait here, the biggest possibility was that Lu Ye would call someone over to teach him a lesson.
For some uncertain benefits, it wasn't worthwhile to take such a risk.
Under the manager's arrangement, Lu Ye quickly moved into a room on the third floor.
Compared to the wilderness or the Spirit Land, the accommodation in the Heavenly Secret Commerce Union's rooms was undoubtedly much better. Lu Ye also asked someone to send over some food, and after eating with Hu Po, he began to cultivate.
The Spirit Gathering Array was set up, and several key locations were filled with high-grade spirit stones to increase the concentration of spirit energy in the room. There was also a dragon scale placed in the middle of the Spirit Gathering Array. Under the operation of the Spirit Gathering Array, a faint trace of blood energy escaped and was absorbed by Lu Ye and Hu Po.
Under the Dragon Spring, Lu Ye obtained a total of five Dragon Scales, each of which contained much richer Blood Qi than the previous one.
Lu Ye gave one of the Dragon Scales to Hu Po for him to swallow and refine. He still had four left, one for Giant Armour. As a Body Cultivator, the Blood Qi in the Dragon Scales would undoubtedly be of great help to him.
While cultivating and reading, Lu Ye suddenly received a message from the Battlefield Mark. Looking down, he was surprised to find that it was actually Xia Qian Qian.
He didn't know what a Cloud River Ninth Order cultivator wanted from him.
"What's the matter?"
"Are you in West Sixteenth Heaven's Secret City?"
Xia Qian Qian asked.
Lu Ye instinctively wanted to ask her, "How did you know?" After the Sealed World in the Realm of Beasts, he and Xia Qian Qian had been separated and hadn't contacted each other. It made no sense for her to know his whereabouts.
Lu Ye even suspected that she had planted some kind of tracking secret technique on her body.
But soon, Lu Ye figured out how she knew his location.
"Zhou Hai told you?"
When he entered the Heavenly Secret Commerce Union today, he happened to run into Zhou Hai, and only Zhou Hai knew his current location. Xia Qian Qian had clearly contacted Zhou Hai.
"Yes, are you still there?"
"Yes."
"Wait for me, I'll come find you!"
She didn't say anything specific and ended the communication after that.
Lu Ye frowned, not knowing why she was looking for him.
Xia Qian Qian was undoubtedly nearby. Only an hour later, Lu Ye received another message from her. After a quick exchange, Lu Ye reported his room number.
A moment later, there was a knock on the door. Lu Ye got up and opened it. It was Xia Qian Qian standing outside.
The woman didn't stand on ceremony and walked straight in. Looking around, she sniffed and said meaningfully, "I didn't disturb you, did I?"
"What?"
Lu Ye didn't know what she was talking about.
"It's nothing." Xia Qian Qian smiled. She had heard that the Heavenly Secret Commerce Union had some special services that male cultivators liked.
"Why did you come looking for me?"
Xia Qian Qian's expression turned serious. "I came to ask for your help."
Lu Ye was surprised.
"I'm just a Cloud River Third Order cultivator. How can I help you?"
"I want you to be a Cloud River Third Order cultivator. Your cultivation is too high. I really can't help."
"Tell me."
After Xia Qian Qian's explanation, Lu Ye understood why she wanted his help.
In short, she wanted his help in a fight!
A few of her fellow disciples had accidentally discovered a new Spirit Land. However, a few others had also discovered it at the same time. It was only a small Spirit Land, and its grade wasn't high. It could only accommodate five people at most. With so many people on both sides, it was naturally impossible for them to coexist. Moreover, the Sects behind each other had enmity with each other, so it was natural for them to fight for it. In the end, everyone's strength was almost the same, and in the end, there was no clear winner.
This made things a little difficult.
In the end, both sides sat down and discussed. They each invited helpers to gather five people and fight to determine the ownership of the Spirit Land. However, because neither side's strength was high, there was a condition in the agreement. The helpers they found couldn't exceed the Fifth Order Cloud River Realm.
Xia Qian Qian's fellow disciples sent her a message, asking her to find a way to help.
If Xia Qian Qian was given enough time, she would naturally be able to find a better candidate. However, there was a time limit to the agreement. It wasn't easy to find a suitable helper in such a limited time.
