Dragon Martial Emperor

Chapter 145 – Mysterious Level Immortality Pill





“What is she doing here?”


Originally, when Feng Longsong had informed him that Feng Yao had left the Feng clan villa, he did not care much about her. But now, quite unexpectedly, she appeared along with Pond Snow and Deng Shun.


Had Feng Yao also joined Xinghai Lun, just like Deng Shun?


“Zhenling second layer.”


As Long Yu assessed the cultivation level of Feng Yao, his pupils contracted.


“This Feng Yao has enhanced her cultivation level quite fast. She probably has consumed numerous immortality pills or she could have absorbed the neidans of some beasts!”


From where could she get so many immortality pills or neidans?


Long Yu soon noticed a long sword hanging from Feng Yao’s waist – this sword was a top grade spirit level battle weapon!


“Has she found a patron?”


Long Yu narrowed his eyes as he noticed to what extent Feng Yao had changed during such a short period of time.


Earlier, in spite of her continuous efforts, there was an enormous disparity between the cultivation levels of Feng Yao and Liu Yuan.


(Mystique: Liu Yuan is the girl whom MC met during the lunar debris arc. She is the cousin of Feng Yao and likes MC. Also, Feng Long used to be bullied by Liu Yuan in her childhood and holds grudge against her.)


However, now this gap had been bridged as Feng Yao had enhanced her cultivation to the same level as that of Liu Yuan!


Of course this had nothing to do with her talent; she was only able to achieve it by going through some adventures of her own.


Long Yu was willing to believe that she had found a patron, but as he further noticed, he found out that she carried herself with the stance of a leader.


Those four strangers along with Pond Snow and Deng Shun seemed to be paying respect to her.


And these four strangers were probably the subordinates of the calamity star – Xinghai Lun!


“Is she associated with Xinghai Lun…..?”


Long Yu could not help but guess!


Long Yu turned away quickly because presently he was sitting on the second floor of an eatery with Elder Yan Huanmo. Pond Snow, Feng Yao and their party had not noticed him yet.


Soon afterwards, Pond Snow and his party of seven people departed from the street and gradually disappeared. They were headed probably towards the lair of the dragon beast.


“I didn’t expect that among the seven people that Pond Snow had mentioned, one would turn out to be Feng Yao…..”


Long Yu thought to himself, but soon put all these thoughts aside. He had promised Feng Longsong that he would never initiate any attack on Feng Yao, and he would certainly keep his promise.


Did Xinghai Lun come to know about Long Yu from Feng Yao?


“It seems that you know these people.”


Yan Huanmo said to Long Yu, smiling lightly.


“Probably.”


Long Yu replied in a soft voice.


…………………


After eating till they were full, Yan Huanmo and Long Yu walked towards the largest marketplace of Hun Yin city.


To enter the marketplace, everyone must pay a crystal coin and even Yan Huanmo, with a cultivation of Zhenling realm 4th layer, was no exception.


After paying two crystal coins, Yan Huanmo and Long Yu entered the marketplace only to find a sea of people ahead!


“What type is your top grade spirit level battle weapon? I’ll give you an estimated price first.”


Yan Huanmo asked Long Yu while she walked in the front.


Long Yu decided to answer honestly. If he did not depend on Yan Huanmo’s experience, he would certainly be fooled by various martial experts in the marketplace.


“Actually, it is a flaming jade talisman…..”


Yan Huanmo was stunned: “This may not be much valuable, Long Yu. Usually, top grade spirit level battle weapons can fetch around 800 to 1000 crystal coins. But I’m afraid that this flaming jade talisman would only fetch you 700 crystal coins at most, or maybe even less.”


“It’s alright. I’m ready to sell it.”


Although Long Yu was a little disappointed, still he thought that 700 crystal coins for the flaming jade talisman was not a bad deal either.


Hun Yin city had three great kingdoms as its neighbors, so naturally numerous martial experts from all the three kingdoms had gathered at the marketplace.


Just like in the Tibetan Fire temple, the number of practitioners of fire type martial skills was not less in the Hun Yin city.


However, the number of practitioners who could afford to buy a top grade spirit level battle weapon was very less.


Along the way, Long Yu came across several martial experts who were practicing fire type martial skills, but when he inquired if they would like to buy the flaming jade talisman, he found out that they simply couldn’t afford it!


Let alone 700 crystal coins, they didn’t even have 70 crystal coins with them.


Crystal coins contained traces of power of the immortality pills or neidans or heavenly tablet from which they were procured. Unless it was a hugely profitable deal, most of the martial experts used these crystal coins for their cultivation.


“Long Yu, the seven sects competition is approaching. Do you wish to participate?”


After a series of inquiries from several people, Yan Huanmo suddenly asked Long Yu.


“Of course, I wish to participate.”


Long Yu calmly replied.


“Such being the case, you should not waste time.”


Yan Huanmo hesitatingly said: “I will buy this flaming jade talisman from you. In exchange for it, I will buy you five immortality pills or neidans and will also give you 200 crystal coins which should help you in your practice and enhance your cultivation quickly. As for me, I will stay here in Hun Yin city and will sell this flaming jade talisman to some other individual who can afford it.”


“Elder Yan, are you fine with that?”


Long Yu gawked. This suggestion suited his purpose perfectly, but Elder Yan might suffer some loss as she would have to stay in Hun Yin city till she finds someone who could afford to buy the flaming jade talisman from her.


Long Yu had no worries of being settled for less by Yan Huanmo as he was well aware that the neidans, immortality pills and 200 crystal coins would be approximately of the same value as of 700 crystal coins.


“What is inappropriate about it?”


Yan Huanmo smiled lightly and said: “I will buy you five immortality pills or neidans first. Then I will give you 200 crystal coins. After that you won’t have to stay here in Hun Yin city so you can continue with your practice.”


Hearing these words, Long Yu felt a little embarrassed, but since Yan Huanmo’s proposal perfectly suited his needs, he readily accepted it.


Soon afterwards, Yan Huanmo found a stall that was selling immortality pills and neidans. She bargained there for a long time and finally settled the price to get six neidans of different spiritual level beasts at the price of 540 crystal coins.


The stall master himself had a cultivation level of Zhenling 4th layer, otherwise it would have been extremely difficult for someone to obtain so many neidans and immortality pills.


It should be noted that after plundering the lair of the dragon beast, Pond Snow and his party would get at most one top grade spiritual level neidan, the rest would be low grade spiritual level neidans.


Yan Huanmo handed the six neidans along with 160 crystal coins to Long Yu who in turn handed her the flaming jade talisman.


Long Yu, after receiving the neidans from Yan Huanmo, was now thinking about their names.


Weeping tarantula, megalith scorpion, earth goblin, cannibal python, bayonet wolf, bloodthirsty leopard!


The neidans of these six beasts clearly conveyed that all these beasts had been at the 4th layer of Zhenling realm!


In the Demon valley, the number of such beasts was very high but since the situations kept changing over there, it was a dangerous place too.


If a team of Zhenling 3rd layer experts tried to kill a beast of Zhenling 4th layer then with some luck they could achieve their goal with no major problems.


But to kill six or more beasts of Zhenling 4th layer was a task next to impossible. An expert could not do it relying on his luck and there were chances that he might accidentally die!


After all, the Demon valley was a haven of demon beasts.


Even if numerous human martial experts entered the Demon valley on a daily basis in order to hunt the beasts, still the number of beasts in the valley was far more than that of the humans.


Grabbing the six neidans of different beasts in his hands, Long Yu suddenly thought of something.


“Elder Yan, do you know about the immortality pills that can repair the blocked meridians and cultivation? It is said that such immortality pills are beyond spiritual level. If I want to buy one, how many crystal coins will it cost me?”


Long Yu asked Yan Huanmo.


“It seems that your foster father’s heavenly arteries are blocked leading his cultivation to be suppressed below the Zhenling realm…..”


Yan Huanmo wrinkled her eyebrows: “The immortality pills above the spiritual level belong to the mysterious level. Mysterious level immortality pills are extremely rare. Even in this Hun Yin city, the number of mysterious level immortality pills is very low. However, if you were to buy one, it will cost you at least one hundred thousand crystal coins!”


One hundred thousand crystal coins!


Long Yu wrinkled his eyebrows. However, he was half expecting the cost to be this high.


If these immortality pills had not been so rare, Feng Longsong and the Mongolian Old General would have cured themselves long ago.


“I understand that. Thank you so much, Elder Yan.”


Long Yu nodded.


“There is no need to be so formal.”


Yan Huanmo smiled and said: “Now I must set up a stall here to sell this flaming jade talisman. If I don’t get any suitable buyers for it here, I shall take it to the auction house of Hun Yin city.”


Yan Huanmo continued, reminding Long Yu: “Since you are about to enter the Demon valley to hunt beasts, let me remind you once more, make sure that you do not cross the Butterfly mountain or else you will land up in extreme danger.”


“En, I will remember it.”


Long Yu nodded his head solemnly.


The Demon valley was an extremely broad mountain valley region and its area was just as much as that of the whole Tang kingdom!


As for Butterfly mountain, it was a checkpoint inside the Demon valley, beyond which lived the most gruesome beasts. If an ordinary human martial expert ever dared to venture beyond the Butterfly mountain, it was impossible for him to come back alive.


Only if one had stepped into the Heaven and Man realm or Heaven and Earth realm, he was qualified enough to cross the Butterfly mountain.


Long Yu had engraved this information in his mind. Even if he had his nine hidden dragon mark, he simply could not joke around with his own life!


Yan Huanmo then started looking for a suitable place to set up her stall to sell the flaming jade talisman.


She was wearing a black skirt and her hair was tied in a high bun. Her whole persona looked noble which attracted many people to her stall.


As for Long Yu, he had received his payment of 160 crystal coins along with six neidans of Zhenling beasts, so now he departed from the marketplace and was about to exit the Hun Yin city from one of its exit gates in order to enter the Demon valley.


Since he wanted to enhance his cultivation level to the 3rd layer of Zhenling realm, relying solely on the six neidans he had just received was insufficient.


The rich ling qi contained in a single Long Yue Jindan was equivalent to the ling qi contained in over hundred spiritual level immortality pills. If Long Yu wanted to step into Zhenling 3rd layer, he must unceasingly hunt the devil beasts and seize their neidans.


However, as he approached the city exit gate, he sensed that some martial experts had been following him right from the marketplace, carrying ulterior evil intentions.


“Are they planning to rob me? It is not quite clear from what I can sense…..”


Long Yu maintained his composure and quietly assessed their martial cultivation levels. Apart from one martial expert with a cultivation of Zhenling 3rd layer, there were four more people each with a cultivation of Zhenling 2nd layer.


Although there were five people, even if they all attacked Long Yu at once, he would easily fend them off!


As Long Yu exited the Hun Yin city and entered the woods that led to the Demon valley, the pursuers seemed prepared to set their plan into motion!
