Chapter 151: Brat, How Dare You Insult Me! (Second Update)

Luo Chen indeed hadn't guessed wrong.

During his first participation in the Zhenlong Black Market, the market owner, to curry favor with him, had specially dispatched a Wang-surname cultivator guarding the entrance to give him a warning.

Among the advice, it was mentioned that places like North Street Three Alleys, Seven Stars Slope, Graveyard Hill, and the main road back to the inner city were the most likely spots for ambushes after the black market ended.

Luo Chen had participated in the ambush on North Street Three Alleys, where Qiu Bai targeted Sima Three Cultivators. Therefore, he subconsciously chose this spot as the ambush location.

However, this didn't mean he hadn't prepared for the other locations.

When Luo Chen and Wang Yuan arrived, there were already three black-cloaked masked cultivators attacking a black-robed cultivator.

Shouts and the surge of spirit light were quite jarring.

"Black robe, young fake voice, that's him, no doubt."

"My blood qi senses him too." Wang Yuan confirmed again.

Luo Chen watched the battle for a while, his brow slightly furrowed.

"Liu Qiang didn't team up with Zhou Yuanli, and his strength is not as good as the Ninth Level of Qi Cultivation. Three Eighth Levels surrounding him can't force him to reveal his trump card."

"Brother Wang, it's up to you."

Swish!

The linen robe fluttered in the night breeze, and a long iron staff appeared in the large, sturdy hand.

Wang Yuan nodded at Luo Chen, holding the staff, and suddenly rushed out.

"This slope is mine, this tree is mine, if you want to pass, leave your life money!"

A rough, disguised voice echoed.

Then, a shocking staff shadow suddenly descended.

Luo Chen's lips twitched at the back. Brother Wang is quite humorous!

But what he found humorous, others didn't see the same way.

Seeing the shocking staff shadow, Liu Qiang, one of the three black-cloaked masked cultivators, his face changed.

"Retreat!"

Without hesitation, the three cultivators from the Sky Ascension Assembly's Combat Hall immediately broke their formation, leaving the black-robed cultivator to face Wang Yuan's shocking staff alone.

The black-robed cultivator looked horrified and immediately summoned a handkerchief magical artifact.

"Great River cultivator, how unreasonable!"

The young fake voice was gone, replaced by a delicate, feminine voice.

When the shocking staff shadow was softly wrapped by the handkerchief magical artifact, all its might gradually dissipated.

The wind howled, blowing open the black robe, revealing a figure with a well-proportioned body.

"Hmm!"

Wang Yuan softly exclaimed, not because of the female cultivator's identity, but because of her rich combat experience.

Even though this iron staff wasn't his favorite top-grade magical weapon, a long knife, as a martial arts grandmaster, he was proficient with all eighteen weapons.

One strike, incredibly fierce.

He intended to force the blood talisman from her hand.

But unexpectedly, she instantly made the most correct response.

Softness overcomes hardness!

However, that was it.

Two fingers tapping continuously, Wang Yuan seemed to grasp the tail end of the iron staff, making it sway and continuously tap out.

"Pointing the Army on the River!"

In an instant, the staff transformed into dozens of staff shadows, raining down.

Each staff shadow had the might of the Ninth Level of Qi Cultivation.

The black-robed female cultivator's face changed drastically, the handkerchief magical artifact flying to her side, tightly protecting her.

Moreover, a crystalline long sword in her hand released snowflakes.

Each one perfectly intercepted each staff shadow.

Bang! Bang! Bang!

The snowflakes exploded, the air pressure shattered.

The black-robed female cultivator seemed to sway, but each explosion of a snowflake meant the disappearance of a staff shadow.

She had actually blocked it.

Wang Yuan's eyes lit up. After reaching the second level of body refinement, although he hadn't gained many new techniques, the power of his usual techniques had increased significantly.

But he didn't expect her to block all of them.

And she did so with the most correct responses.

"Unfortunately..."

Wang Yuan sighed inwardly, reaching out and grasping the staff in the air.

"Gather!"

In the next moment, all the broken staff shadows, as if time had reversed, continuously restored and converged under the control of a strange energy.

A staff several dozen zhang long stood in the night sky of Seven Stars Slope.

The black-robed female cultivator looked at this scene with horror, her scalp tingling, and her soul trembling.

"What kind of technique is this!"

She didn't have time to think. Suddenly, a blood talisman appeared in her hand.

"This is what you forced me to do!"

Spirit energy entered the talisman, burning without wind.

A bright, crimson light shone brilliantly, accompanied by a deep, fragrant aroma like orchids and musk.

This fragrance made even the female cultivator pause for a moment.

When she came to, she saw a blood-colored giant palm slowly slapping towards the shocking staff.

Boom!!!

A massive explosion echoed, almost audible for ten miles.

The brilliant light illuminated the entire night sky, visible even from a hundred miles away.

A voice filled with shock and anger echoed.

"Fu Family blood talisman, damn it!"

When the light dissipated, the once-famous ambush site of Great River Market, Seven Stars Slope, was reduced to flat ground.

A massive pit, over a hundred zhang wide, appeared before the female cultivator's eyes, now pale as gold.

Inside the pit, an incomplete corpse lay quietly.

Huff, huff, huff~

The female cultivator panted heavily, laughing with relief.

"Damn ambushers, died well, died well!"

But it was a pity about the newly obtained blood talisman.

Its power was indeed formidable, far surpassing the Great Perfection of Qi Cultivation, almost rivaling a Foundation Establishment strike.

As she laughed freely, her face changed again.

"Too much, is this Great River Market a nest of ambushers?"

She cursed and didn't dare to stay.

Using her remaining strength, she activated her flying magical artifact and fled hastily.

Not far away, dozens of multicolored flying lights were rushing towards here.

...

Under a large tree, Luo Chen swallowed.

"Is this what Brother Wang meant by only affecting a hundred meters?"

The explosion's power and coverage were far more than just a hundred meters!

Wang Yuan stepped over, patting the dust off his clothes.

"That female cultivator has extremely rich combat experience and very sharp eyesight. The original fake blood talisman might not be able to deceive her."

"That's why I added something to it."

No wonder! Luo Chen suddenly understood, but he was still very envious of the power of the fake blood talisman.

If it could be mass-produced, it could definitely pose a threat to Foundation Establishment cultivators.

If every cultivator from the Luo Tian Assembly's Combat Hall had one, they could walk around the Great River Market without a care.

Noticing his gaze, Wang Yuan sneered, "I won't mass-produce these talismans. It would greatly affect my cultivation."

Luo Chen gave a sheepish smile.

That was true. Wang Yuan had spent ten whole days creating this fake blood talisman, and it had cost him a lot of blood energy.

If it was just about increasing lethality, it would be better for Wang Yuan to focus on enhancing himself.

He couldn't put the cart before the horse!

The two of them gazed at the former Seven Stars Slope, now more like Seven Stars Pit, where dozens of flying lights were still lingering.

Some others had pursued into the depths of the night.

"Brother Wang, your shout was truly a stroke of genius!"

"Without it, how could we bring fame to the Fu Family?"

The two of them exchanged a smile, understanding everything without words.

...

The next day, after a night of fermentation,

All the independent cultivators in the Great River Market knew about last night's battle.

The Fu Family's blood talismans had made their name known.

Countless people were discussing this thing and yearned to obtain one.

Of course, some people were harshly condemning the Fu Family, a former Foundation Establishment family, for secretly capturing cultivators, peeling their skin, and drawing talismans.

Such actions were no different from the Demon Dao, and everyone should be able to punish them!

For a moment, the Fu Family was at the center of controversy.

In the Luo Tian Assembly, Luo Chen, who had just finished a day of alchemy, could hear the discussions among the cultivators in the assembly.

Especially those voices filled with righteous indignation, which made him very satisfied.

So far, the plan was going smoothly.

Then, it was time to move on to the next step.

"Bring Sima Xian here!"

Not long after, Sima Xian rushed to the council hall.

Looking at this steady and honest man, Luo Chen was amazed.

During the battle in North Street Three Alleys, he had intended to cover his younger siblings, and faced the full force of an exquisite magical weapon.

Unexpectedly, he survived.

Sima's three siblings were all safe and sound.

Now, they were all doing quite well in the Luo Tian Assembly.

Sima Huiniang, the second sister, had shown remarkable talent in the Golden Hall and had been appointed as an overseer by Gu Caiyi.

The youngest brother, Sima Wenjie, had also received favorable evaluations from Murong Qinglian.

He was just a bit impetuous and lacked experience in handling personnel-related matters.

"President, what do you need from me?"

Luo Chen smiled warmly, "Go to the Fu Family and deliver this letter to their patriarch, Fu Zhang."

Sima Xian respectfully took the letter and waited for Luo Chen's further instructions.

However, Luo Chen did not give any more tasks but instead asked him about matters outside the Great River Market.

"We, the three siblings, haven't been to many places. Only the Snow Lotus Auction House, Mount Tai Market, Flowing Light Market, and Heavenly Leaf Market."

"Haven't you been to Tianlan Immortal City?"

"No, it's too far away. All I know is that Tianlan Immortal City was built by the joint investment of the Jade Tripod Seven Sects. It has tens of thousands of independent cultivators and millions of ordinary people, making it one of the top ten super cities in the Jade Tripod Domain."

"Are there many such large cities in the Jade Tripod Domain?"

"Not many. These super cities usually have a third-rank spirit vein as their foundation and can even support Golden Core cultivators."

At this point, Sima Xian hesitated, "It's said that the Great River Market also has plans to build an Immortal City."

"The Great River Market?" Luo Chen was surprised, "This place only has a large first-rank spirit vein. Does it qualify to be an Immortal City?"

Sima Xian shook his head, "I don't know the details, but it's said that the Jade Cauldron Sword Sect indeed has such plans. Moreover, the rank of a spirit vein is not fixed. Perhaps those major sects have mastered the mysterious techniques to enhance the rank of a spirit vein!"

Hearing this, Luo Chen seemed to be deep in thought.

In the cultivation world, because of the existence of spirit qi, nothing is ever fixed.

A first-rank spirit herb, after thousands of years, might become as powerful as a third-rank or fourth-rank spirit herb.

The spirit fields in the Moonlit Valley, originally ordinary fertile soil, were cultivated into first-rank spirit fields bit by bit.

Suddenly, he thought of the closing of the Dao Forum Platform.

At the time, he thought it was just the Golden Core cultivator making a show, creating the source of chaos.

Now, it seemed it might also be related to enhancing the rank of a spirit vein.

Skipping this topic, Luo Chen asked about the customs and conditions of the nearby markets.

"Powerful Qi Cultivation cultivators?"

"There are many. For example, Qiu Bai and Liu Han from the Flowing Light Market, Hao Xuan and Jin Donglai from the Mount Tai Market, and Wang Cheng. Even in the Snow Lotus Auction House, known as a harsh and cold place, there are cultivators like Cool Moon Fairy and Nan Gong Qin."

"Oh, Nan Gong Qin is now considered a powerful Qi Cultivation cultivator in the Great River Market, so he can't be counted in the Snow Lotus Auction House."

Names poured out from Sima Xian's mouth, interspersed with some related stories.

Luo Chen listened with great interest, especially about the Cool Moon Fairy from the Snow Lotus Auction House, whom he found increasingly familiar.

After Sima Xian left, he finally realized.

The embroidered handkerchief, the frost flower sword, this was the black-robed female cultivator whom Wang Yuan had praised last night.

Indeed, any cultivator who could make a name for themselves in every place had their unique qualities.

Even if Wang Yuan had hidden his true strength last night, his rich experience still led him to use harsh measures against the female cultivator, forcing her to use the blood talisman.

This showed that her strength was outstanding among Ninth Level Qi Cultivation cultivators.

"But why would a cultivator from the Snow Lotus Auction House come to the Great River Market? Could they also want to move here like the Nan Gong Family?"

...

While Luo Chen was pondering these miscellaneous thoughts, in the Fu Family's fort.

Slam!

A palm slammed onto the sandalwood table, shattering it into powder.

Fu Zhang, ignoring the wooden debris on the ground, was furious.

"Rogue, how dare you deceive me so!"
