Because of his relationship with the Flowing Moon Clan, Lu An was familiar with every city in the Outré Prefecture. The Dark Abyss Clan was a race that could adapt to the pressure of the sea. Even if their strength was below the sixth rank, they could still live in the deep sea. This was due to their unique body structure. They had no bones, and their bodies were as light as silk. They could change their shape at will, and they didn't have to endure much pressure.
However, it was also because of this that the Dark Abyss Race wasn't good at fighting on land. They wouldn't have any advantage even if they fought in shallow waters. Their body structure made it impossible for them to fight against the powerful Exotic Beasts. Their bodies could even be described as fragile. Their attacking methods were Soul Consciousness attacks and special poison attacks. In the deep sea, the water pressure was enough to cause great pressure to their enemies. That was why they could rely on their speed and skills to win.
Similarly, the reason why the Dark Abyss Clan could occupy a city wasn't because of their strength on land. It was because they could go to the bottom of the sea and obtain resources that other clans couldn't. This was the Dark Abyss Clan's unique advantage. It was like they had a monopoly on resources. Therefore, in order to do business, no one would fight with the Dark Abyss Clan.
The Dark Abyss City was the city with the largest trade among the six cities. Basically, all the Strange Beasts came here to do business. There wasn't even a duel arena here. Once a conflict occurred, the Dark Abyss Clan couldn't deal with it. Therefore, it was very peaceful and safer than the other cities.
Even so, Lu An couldn't enter the city just like that. Therefore, he had to disguise himself. There were many clans in the sea, and the Strange Beasts' appearances were different. Even if they stood on the street, they would be dazzling. However, there were many Strange Beasts that looked similar to humans. After all, they had the Shapeshifting Pill. Lu An put on some disguise. With the Invisible Immortal Ring, he didn't have to worry about his human aura being exposed. He also wore some accessories with the aura of other Strange Beasts. No one could recognize him.
After Qiao Zhuang, Lu An walked on the street. No one paid attention to his existence. In fact, under the situation where no humans could be seen on the surface of the Eight Ancient Continents, it was a strange feeling to see so many 'humans' here. Lu An randomly found a vendor and asked him about the exact location of the Dark Abyss Clan's trading Center in the city.
Without a doubt, the place with the most information in a city was the city's trading house. The Dark Abyss Race lived at the bottom of the sea, which was the best place for Lu An to find out what he wanted.
Soon, Lu An arrived in front of the Exchange. The Exchange was much larger than he had imagined, and it had five floors. From the open door, he could see that there were many people inside. After entering the Exchange, Lu An looked around. After all, the Exchange included all kinds of transactions. Among them, trading items and auctions were the main items, while trading information was the minor items. There were many windows in the lobby, and there were many corridors around the lobby. Lu An didn't know where to go.
Right when Lu An was standing on the spot in a daze, a figure walked over to Lu An after merely two breaths of time and asked. "May I know what kind of deal you'd like to make?"
Lu An turned around and looked behind him. This' person 'did indeed look like a human. There was almost no difference. If one had to point out a difference, it would be that this person's body looked very light, as if it could be broken by the slightest breeze. It would be very easy for him to be torn apart.
Obviously, this person was from the Dark Abyss Race, and the manager of the Exchange should also be from the Dark Abyss Race.
"Hello." Lu An faced this person and said, "I'm here to ask for some information."
The Dark Abyss Race person was slightly startled and asked, "You want to buy information?"
"That's right." Lu An said.
"Okay." The Dark Abyss Race person nodded and said, "Please follow me."
With that, the Dark Abyss Race person walked towards a corridor, and Lu An naturally followed. The two of them quickly arrived at the corridor. There were many rooms on both sides of the corridor, and all of them were tightly shut. Of course, this was normal. Transactions were usually done in secret to prevent others from eavesdropping. Every Exchange did business like this.
Soon, Lu An was brought to a door. The Dark Abyss Race person knocked on the door and said, "We have a guest."
"Please come in." A voice came from inside.
The Dark Abyss Race person pushed the door open and turned to Lu An, saying, "Please come in."
Lu An nodded and entered. The Dark Abyss Race person who led the way did not follow him in. Instead, he closed the door and left. From this, it could be seen that the Dark Abyss Race was very strict about information.
The room was not big, but it was not small either. Behind the desk sat another Dark Abyss Race person. This person raised his hand to Lu An and pointed to the chair in front of the desk and said, "Please sit."
Seeing Lu An take a seat, this person asked again, "What do you want to ask?"
Lu An's heart tightened. In fact, he was somewhat nervous because he did not know if the words' Sacred Fire Plains' were taboo to the deep sea races, and if they could not even mention it. There were many things that could bring about a fatal disaster once mentioned. Lu An was very clear about this. However, since he was here, he would definitely ask.
"Sacred Fire Plains." Lu An did not hesitate and went straight to the point. He asked, "Do you know this place?"
Sacred Fire Plains?
As soon as Lu An said this, the Dark Abyss Race person was stunned. His eyes and expression showed obvious astonishment. Lu An had been observing the other party's emotions. After such a change, Lu An was immediately sure that the other party knew something!
If he did not know, he would either not show any emotions or show suspicion. He would definitely not show an astonished attitude.
Since he saw the other party's astonished expression, Lu An would not ignore it. Otherwise, it would be really suspicious. Lu An said frankly, "It seems that you know about the Sacred Fire Plains. I wonder how much this information costs."
This person looked at Lu An and could not help but size him up. Lu An's appearance was not much different from a normal human. His makeup was only on the surface, and there were no changes to his body. However, Lu An's aura was that of the Snake Race. This was because he had applied it beforehand.
The Dark Abyss Race person recovered from his astonishment. He took a deep breath and asked, "Why do you want to know about the Sacred Fire Plains?"
"I don't have to say this, right?" Lu An looked at the other party and said, "Do I have to explain why I want to buy information here?"
Lu An's words were very calm and even had a questioning tone. This reaction was normal. After all, he was here to spend money. This Dark Abyss Race person also understood this, so he shook his head.
"Of course not. I'm just curious." The Dark Abyss Race person smiled and said, "We will naturally sell this information. However, there is one thing that I need to say in advance. However, any information may be wrong. There may be more than one place called the Sacred Fire Plain in the world. There may also be many places with multiple names. If the place I tell you is different from the place you want to know, we will not refund the fee. "
"Okay." Lu An asked, "How much?"
"This depends on how much you want to know." The Dark Abyss Race person said, "If you just want to know the location, you only need to pay more than two Tier 8 Form Transformation Pills. If you want to know everything, you need to pay more than four. "
Four Tier 8 Form Transformation Pills?
One had to know that the Form Transformation Pill was no ordinary item. A single Grade Eight Form Transformation Pill was enough to buy almost all the items of Grade Nine and below. Even a complete corpse of a strange beast could be bought. After all, exotic beasts were not good at refining pills. If they wanted to refine a Form Transformation Pill, the success rate would be much lower than humans.
A total of four Tier 8 Form Transformation Pills could even buy something from a Tier 9 exotic beast.
"Too expensive." Lu An did not agree and said, "At most two. I want to know everything."
"Three!" The Dark Abyss Race person bargained.
"Just two." Lu An said indifferently, "This is only a location. Moreover, I don't know if it will be useful to me. If you don't do it, I will go to another city."
"…" The Dark Abyss Race person was at a loss. Sure enough, the snake race was cunning and stingy. However, two Tier 8 Form Transformation Pills were enough. He said, "Okay, deal!"
Lu An raised his hand and took out two Tier 8 Form Transformation Pills from his ring and placed them on the table. The Dark Abyss Race person hurriedly took them. One had to know that even in their exchange, Tier 8 Form Transformation Pills were definitely the highest quality items!
After checking that there were no problems, the Dark Abyss Race person immediately kept the Form Transformation Pills. He looked at Lu An again and said, "Okay, I will tell you the information about the Sacred Fire Plains now."
