Twilight City was an important border town in the Heavenly Devil Race's territory. It was a flat plain with a radius of 5,000 kilometers. The cultivator town was located at the center of the plain, at the intersection of three spirit veins.
When Yi Tian arrived, he discovered that the cultivator town was undefended from afar. He descended from his cloud and snuck into the city to ask around. It turned out that only the Heavenly Devil Race had Mahayana cultivators in the entire Heavenly Devil Realm. As such, they were the only ones who invaded the territories of other races. There had never been any records of the Heavenly Devil Race's town being invaded.
This information made him somewhat puzzled. If that was the case, shouldn't the Holy Demon Crown Prince Qiu Yu and Evil Buddha of Chaos be on the Heavenly Devil Race's side?
Could it be that the Heavenly Devil Race's imperial family was willing to take in the cultivators who fell from the Buddhist Sect? However, from his point of view, this matter was still a little strange.
After entering the city, he asked around and found out that it was a hodgepodge. All the races of the Heavenly Devil Realm had come to set up shops. The city was overseen by a Body Integration cultivator of the Heavenly Devil Race, who was also a relative of the imperial family.
As Yi Tian walked through the city, he passed by all kinds of Heavenly Devil Race cultivators. There were also foreign race cultivators coming and going among them. After asking around, he found out that there was a realm gate not far from the city that led to the Nine Divine Realms. Unlike the outside world, this realm gate was a fixed two-way passage. Apart from the one that led to the Spirit Realm, the other seven paths were unobstructed.
After asking around in the city, he found out that the only way to buy high-grade treasures in Twilight City was through the auction house. Furthermore, this was a place where the strong preyed on the weak. Without sufficient strength, one couldn't enter the auction house.
Yi Tian naturally didn't want to expose his identity. He took out a concealment cloak and put it on. Then, he disguised himself as an itinerant Heavenly Devil Race cultivator and went straight to the auction house to find out more information.
Fortunately, he found out that pure Devil Liquid was a heaven-grade treasure. However, it wasn't enough to be auctioned off as a special item. As long as he had enough Devil Crystal Stones, he could exchange them directly from the auction house's shop.
To him, this was great news. Any problem that could be solved with magic crystals wasn't a problem at all. Thus, at his request, the auction house's staff directly led him to the Secret Trading Center to make the transaction.
After entering the stone room, Yi Tian found that there was a group of cultivators with similar strength waiting for him. Stepping forward, Yi Tian saluted in the manner of demons before sitting down and saying, "I am Loose Cultivator Yi Tian. I would like to purchase a bottle of pure demon liquid."
The Demon Race cultivator in front of him should be from the Heavenly Demon Race. After looking up and sizing him up, he slowly said, "I am Dugu Yaoxiang, the third shopkeeper of this place. Your Excellency looks very unfamiliar. You must be new to Twilight City, so you don't know the rules here."
Hearing this, Yi Tian was startled. He carefully looked at Dugu Yaoxiang's expression. Could it be that there were some special requirements for exchanging Pure Demon Liquid here?
After pondering for a moment, he replied, "I am new to this place and am not familiar with many of the rules here. Please enlighten me."
"Pure Demon Liquid is a specialty of my Heavenly Demon Race. It is a situation where there are too many monks and too little gruel. Even the cultivators of the imperial family don't have enough. Naturally, it is used to exchange for high-grade treasures or demonic artifacts and pills," Dugu Yaoxiang explained indifferently.
So it was like that. Yi Tian's expression calmed down a little. Although he could not use Devil Crystal Stones to exchange, as long as the other party named a price, he still had a lot of demonic artifacts.
After thinking about it, he took out two demonic artifacts that he had refined in recent years and gently handed them to the other party. "These two are quasi-Heaven-grade spirit artifacts. How much Pure Demon Liquid can they be exchanged for?"
Dugu Yaoxiang was a demonic cultivator who had seen the world. Facing the two spirit artifacts, he still had a calm expression. After receiving it, he carefully examined its quality before replying, "It's barely worth it. Then let's exchange two items for two drops."
Yi Tian's face couldn't help but twitch. Was this guy in front of him taking advantage of his ignorance? Two quasi-Heaven-grade spirit artifacts couldn't even be exchanged for a single bottle. Just as he was about to flare up, Dugu Yaoxiang suddenly said, "I see that you seem to have a difficult expression. Do you think that my price is unfair?"
"I think so." Yi Tian suppressed his anger. It was inconvenient for him to flare up in the Heavenly Demon Race's territory, so he could only reply in a deep voice, "I don't know the value of this Pure Demon Liquid. Since there is no clear price, you should at least give me a measure."
"According to common sense, a Heavenly Tribulation Magic Artifact is more than enough to exchange for a bottle. It's just that the production of Pure Demon Liquid in the past hundred years has been slightly insufficient, so the higher-ups have set a rule to double the exchange price." Dugu Yaoxiang replied, "I see that there is an urgent need for Pure Demon Liquid, and your spirit artifacts are indeed of excellent workmanship. They can be considered the best of the best, so I'll exchange for a drop for you."
"But this drop isn't enough." Yi Tian thought about it and simply took out a token and handed it to the other party. "This should be a mid-Heaven-grade spirit artifact. It's enough to exchange for a bottle of Pure Demon Liquid. If shopkeeper likes it, then I won't be long-winded. If not, then I won't exchange for the spirit artifacts from before. "
Dugu Yaoxiang's gaze swept over and he blurted out, "It's a Balrog Token. Fellow daoist, you're quite bold. You even have something like this." After saying that, he reached out and took the token and carefully examined it.
After ten breaths, he saw the other party take a deep breath and turn his head to size him up. He asked, "Where did you get this Balrog Token? This thing is hot to the touch. I can't trade it with anyone."
"The dignified Lord of the Demon Realm of the Sky Demon Clan is actually afraid of being questioned. Fellow daoist Dugu, as a member of the imperial family, don't you have this bit of courage?" Yi Tian smiled and teased.
Dugu Yaoxiang's expression became unsightly when he heard this. However, he was also experienced and knowledgeable. He knew that there were many goods of unknown origin, but as he said, when had his Sky Demon Clan ever been afraid of any other demon clan?
After putting away the Balrog Token, he coldly replied, "Since fellow daoist dares to make a move, then I dare to accept it. As for provoking me, it's best if you don't use it on me. "
After saying that, he took out two jade bottles and poured ten drops into one of them. He poured an extra drop into the other bottle and then pushed the two jade bottles over.
After Yi Tian received them, he used his Divine Sense to examine them. After confirming that there were no mistakes, he put the caps back on.
Now that he had achieved his goal, he didn't want to stay any longer. He slowly got up, cupped his hands, and prepared to leave. Unexpectedly, Dugu Yaoxiang took out a black invitation card and said, "I'll be holding a high-level exchange meeting soon. If fellow daoist is interested, you can come and take a look. Perhaps you can exchange for black dragon horn scales. "
Yi Tian casually asked, "What are the uses of black dragon horn scales?"
Dugu Yaoxiang said, "Grind the black dragon horn scales and use it to dilute the pure demonic liquid. It can increase the absorption efficiency by thirty percent. If it's to cleanse the side effects of the Dark Demon Eyes, it can increase the effect by fifty percent."
