The He Yi Mountain Range was a huge mountain range on the east side of the Huanghai Continent. To the northeast of the He Yi Mountain Range was a boundless sea known as the Cangyan Sea, also known as the Forget Worries Sea.
In the vast and boundless azure ocean, wave after wave surged over, crashing into the rocks and emitting earth-shattering roars. Snow-white foam splashed everywhere.
The sunlight shone on the sparkling surface of the sea, as if covering the surface of the sea with a layer of glittering silver, or like crumpled green satin.
There were powerful and ferocious Demon Beasts in the sea. Even the legendary Dragon Clan resided in this dangerous sea area.
The sky was also filled with ferocious flying demonic beasts. Even the clouds above the sea would suck the blood essence of cultivators and demonic beasts.
The unpredictable weather, the turbulent sea water, and the powerful demonic beasts all blocked almost all the cultivators and demonic beasts who wanted to cross the sea.
For tens of thousands of years, no one knew what was on the other side of the ocean.
The south side of the He Yi Mountain Range was the most mysterious and dangerous place in the Huanghai Mainland.
This place had the densest Spirit Qi, more than a hundred times that of other places.
The thick white fog isolated all probing with Divine Sense. No one knew what was inside. Of course, those who knew were probably already dead.
It was only known that for tens of millions of years, no one who had entered had ever come out.
Gradually, this place became the most mysterious forbidden area on the Huanghai Continent.
The inner circle of the He Yi Mountain Range was not in the middle of the mountain range. Instead, it was in an arc towards the east, north, and south.
Therefore, the west side was the only entrance and exit for cultivators to enter He Yi Mountain Range.
On the western side of the road, there were many cultivators coming in and out.
Buying or selling medicinal pills and talismans?
There were many kinds of transactions, such as magic tools, array flags, and so on. Thus, the 'town', an orderly and wide-ranging trading place, appeared.
Here, you can pay spirit stones to rent an Immortal's cave. You can also set up stalls to sell goods, rent shops to sell goods, and buy goods. You can also barter at the Barter Street. You can also auction your goods at the auction house. You can also sell your own goods. You can also sell medicinal pills and talismans.
You can buy the things you need from shops, array formation shops, magic weapon shops, and other places. You can also give the materials you have to them to help you refine.
They could fight in the arena, earn Spirit Stones, and train their combat skills.
They could make a fortune by gambling on stones, or they could set up stalls to sell goods.
In the Mercenary Pavilion, you can post missions and mark the price of spirit stones. You can also accept missions posted by others.
You can form a mercenary group or join someone else's mercenary group. This is a temporary cooperative organization.
Hua Heng was the biggest shopping center in every town.
The supplies here were not the best, but they were the most complete.
Everything you want to sell can be purchased here. Of course, the purchase price is 20% lower than the market price.
However, the number of customers would not decrease because of this.
If he kept some things on him, he didn't know when they would be sold out. He wasn't a merchant who specialized in selling goods, so he didn't have that much time to waste.
You might be able to find things here that you couldn't find in other shops.
Regardless of whether you know them or not, they have stock here.
This was because there were many mortals in the town, and most of them were at the Qi Refinement stage. These people were unable to abstain from eating.
Therefore, a small town would always have some restaurants, inns, and small shops that sold food.
No matter how small a town was, these basic things were generally available.
As the largest town on the west side of the He Yi Mountain Range, the Guang Ming Town was more comprehensive and prosperous than other towns. It was a place where many cultivators gathered.
A thousand kilometers north of the Guang Ming Town, there was a small town called 'Traveler'. Although it was not as prosperous as the Guang Ming Town, it still had all the essentials. Therefore, there were still many cultivators coming and going.
At the entrance of the mountain range facing the Traveler Town, a figure was slowly walking over.
Her pace was neither fast nor slow. Her movements were light and graceful. Every step was like stepping on cotton. There was no sound.
Her cold temperament attracted the attention of passers-by. However, they all looked away in the next moment. It was just a little brat who was secretly wearing adult clothes. Moreover, her skin was gray and yellow, and even her hair was messy. They didn't give her a second glance and went to do their own things.
This person was Yan Yue.
Just going down the mountain alone took her nearly two months. Moreover, her speed was not considered slow. One could imagine how big this mountain range was.
The lower she went, the more people there were. Most of them were male cultivators, and most of them were at the Foundation Establishment stage.
Yan Yue was a female cultivator at the eighth level of Qi Refining stage. It was indeed a bit dangerous.
Not only did she have to face the attacks of demonic beasts, but she also had to face the robberies of human cultivators.
Fortunately, she dressed herself up as a young man who was in a sorry state, so she didn't encounter anyone who tried to rob her.
She did encounter a lot of demonic beasts, but they were all first, second, and third level. Perhaps for other people, it was a bit troublesome to deal with them. However, she was a person who had mingled with demonic beasts for nearly three years.
Looking at the Traveler Town in front of her, Yan Yue didn't have much curiosity to see what it had. She just wanted to take a good bath.
Here, there were too many people with stronger spiritual sense than her. In the wild, she didn't even dare to take a bath. This body was already fourteen years old, and some of it had already begun to develop. She still didn't dare to take a bath in the wild. It should be known that this spiritual sense was better than a surveillance camera. Although she didn't care about this, if she was really scanned by other people's spiritual sense, as a woman, she couldn't help but be a little shy.
Dragging her body that hadn't taken a bath for more than ten days, Yan Yue walked into the Traveler Town. Her destination — — the bathhouse!
Just as she stepped into the town, the scene in front of her made Yan Yue a little surprised.
She saw that on both sides of the road that was dozens of meters wide, there were a lot of demonic beasts flying or lying on the ground. Each demonic beast was pulling a large carriage on its back or behind it.
There were many different kinds of demonic beasts, each with their own merits. However, it had to be said that at a glance, it was very shocking.
Yan Yue had just taken a step forward when a few people squeezed over.
"Gongzi, do you need a beast carriage?"
"Where are you going?
Be our flying beast!
The price is negotiable. "
"Do you need a guide?
Is it your first time here? "
"Do you need to rent an immortal's cave?
Do you need to eat?
No matter where you want to go, we can get it for you. "
— —
Yan Yue frowned slightly, and the voices in her ears said, "It's too noisy, I don't like it."
Yan Yue rejected these enthusiastic people and walked quickly to a relatively quiet place before stopping.
She couldn't help but mutter in her heart, "She has obviously made herself so embarrassed. She shouldn't look like a rich person. Why are there still people introducing her to this and that?"
In fact, what Yan Yue didn't know was that this was the outer mountain foot of the He Yi Mountain Range. Her appearance was really nothing.
Who didn't come back from hunting demonic beasts or picking herbs from the He Yi Mountain Range? Who didn't come back dirty and messy?
They didn't look down on Yan Yue because of her embarrassing appearance. Obviously, they thought that she had just come back from the He Yi Mountain Range.
Of course, if they used their Divine Sense to scan Yan Yue's body, they would find that she was only at the eighth level of Qi Refining stage. Of course, there were also people at the Qi Refining stage who dared to go up the He Yi Mountain Range. However, other people at the Qi Refining stage were led by others or in groups. Yan Yue came down alone, so they naturally thought that she was at least a cultivator at the Foundation Establishment stage.
"Excuse me, little gongzi, is there anything I can do for you?"
The one who said this was a young man dressed in green clothes. His young face had a sweet smile, and two small dimples appeared on his round face because of his smile. It was very cute.
Yan Yue glanced at the young man and thought for a moment. She had just arrived, so she really didn't know anything.
The roads here were not regular, and the distribution was a bit messy. She really didn't know which was which.
Thinking of this, Yan Yue replied, "Okay, what's the price?"
When the young man heard that Yan Yue agreed, he immediately smiled and said, "20 low-grade spirit stones for two hours, 200 low-grade spirit stones for one day, and 220 low-grade spirit stones for one night."
Yan Yue thought for a moment. Although it was a bit expensive, she still had the money. She pretended to take out money from her clothes, but in fact, she took out 100 low-grade spirit stones from her Storage Bag and casually threw it to the young man, saying, "I'll give it to you today. When the time comes, I'll naturally give the rest to you."
The young man took the spirit stones that Yan Yue threw over. With a wave of his hand, all the spirit stones disappeared in an instant.
Yan Yue glanced at his waist, and sure enough, there was a Storage Bag hanging on his waist.
She couldn't help but feel a little surprised. Could it be that she guessed wrong, and this Storage Bag was actually worthless?
"This, where did you buy it?"
Yan Yue pointed to the Storage Bag on his waist and said. She thought that if it was cheap, she would buy a few more. This was a good thing to have when moving house. Daily necessities could be thrown in.
When the young man heard Yan Yue's words, he followed her finger and looked at his waist – the Storage Bag. He couldn't help but smile bitterly and said, "Where would I have so many spirit stones to buy this? My Storage Bag with 10 cubic meters of space costs 100 mid-grade spirit stones. It's not something that a rogue cultivator like me can afford."
Yan Yue was a little surprised by his words. Only 10 cubic meters of space was so expensive, then wouldn't hers be even more expensive …
"Then this is …" Didn't he say it was very expensive?
Then where did he get it from?
"I rented it. Originally, it was 100 low-grade spirit stones per day, but my grandfather and Uncle Zhang who sold this Storage Bag know each other, so he only charged me 50 low-grade spirit stones per day. Little Gongzi, do you want to buy this?
I can bring you there. "
Although he said that, he didn't think that Yan Yue really had so much money to buy it. Was 100 mid-grade spirit stones a small amount?
Of course not, that was a whole 100000 low-grade spirit stones!
Wasn't it only possible for rich people with status and background to buy it?
"No, I want to take a bath. Bring me to the nearby bathhouse first!" Although Yan Yue looked calm on the surface, her heart was in turmoil.
She didn't expect that the Storage Bag that Cang Po casually threw to her would be so valuable. It seemed that if she met him in the future, she would have to return it to him.
She couldn't accept such a huge favour and didn't want to accept it.
Following the young man, the two of them chatted as they walked towards the bathhouse.
But most of the time, it was the young man who was talking. Yan Yue just listened by the side and occasionally responded.
So this young man's name was Xu Ya and he was a native of this area.
Because his spiritual roots were too poor and his battle strength was too weak. He also didn't have enough spirit stones to open a shop, so he became a guide.
He only had a grandfather and a younger brother. His parents had died in the battle against the Beast Tide.
Yan Yue also understood from his words that all the towns in the west side would encounter a small Beast Tide every three years, a big one every ten years and a big one every hundred years.
No wonder the walls were so thick and tall when she came in. It was to defend against the Beast Tide.
Yan Yue only said her name and that she had just come down from the mountain. She didn't say anything else.
After a while, Xu Ya brought Yan Yue to a nearby shop called Spring Breeze Bathhouse.
Yan Yue asked Xu Ya to wait for her outside for two hours before she stepped into the shop.
