In any place, the rarer something was, the greater its value. Whatever was lacking in the Barren Universe, it would be expensive.
For example, the Barren Universe had no shortage of elixirs, which was why they were cheap. Since there were many Great Emperor Realm weapons, Great Emperor Realm weapons were not as valuable.
To earn Celestial Stones in the Barren Universe, there were several ways. The first was to seek refuge with a major race and work for another race.
In this way, he could receive salary and Celestial Stones every once in a while.
Given Lu Li's abilities, he could be valued if he sought refuge with a major race. At the very least, he could get himself a castle in the Black Tortoise City.
That being said, Lu Li did not like to depend on others, nor did he want to be a fighter for other races or be ordered around by other races.
The second way was to dig for elixirs and materials. The Realm of Flying Immortals was full of elixirs and materials. If he was lucky, he could spend decades or even a century digging and he could buy a yard in the Black Tortoise City.
He could also hunt for beasts. Many materials from beasts were valuable and could be sold at a high price.
The higher the rank of the beasts, the more valuable the materials would be.
The third option was to go to dangerous places to search for treasures. There were too many historical remains in the Flying Immortal World, and there were too many treasure lands. There were countless treasures inside.
With some valuable treasures, it would be easy to buy a manor.
Lu Li had chosen the third way!
The second way would take too long and he didn't think it was safe. The wild was not as safe as the city.
There were patrols. What could the patrols do if some powerful warrior tried to assassinate him without leaving any evidence?
At the very least, the Four-Armed Race could hire assassins, assassins.
There would be assassins willing to do it for the cost of Celestial Stones.
Therefore, Lu Li chose to go to some lands of treasure. If he could dig out some treasures, it would be the end of the matter once and for all.
The waiter told Lu Li more than a dozen places. Every year, treasures could be dug out from those places but they were dangerous. Every year, many would die in those places.
As for where to go, it was up to Lu Li to decide.
After pondering for a long time, he decided to leave the nearby Black Fox Mountain. This mountain had been discovered more than ten years ago, and it was confirmed to be the tomb of an old devil. The treasures on the periphery had already been taken, but there should still be treasures inside.
Lu Li chose to go to those lands of treasures because he had Blood Fairy, a master in Divine Inscriptions.
He believed that with Blood Fairy around, he would have a high chance of obtaining treasures. Besides, he had the Holy Mountain, so he didn't have to worry about its defenses. So, digging for treasures was the best option.
He wandered around Black Tortoise City for a few more days, roughly understanding the situation inside. He also discovered the existence of the human race, and the number of humans living in the city was not small.
The humans here had also come from the Fourth Heaven Realm back then. They were a super big clan, the Dai Clan.
Their clan's disciples and peripheral personnel added up to hundreds of thousands of people.
Lu Li also saw the legendary Desolate Race. This race looked similar to humans. The only difference was that they had a blue diamond-shaped tattoo in between their eyebrows. It was very obvious. Their hair was also blue.
This race was generally slightly taller than the human race. The men were handsome, and the women were gentle and beautiful. However, their temperament was cold, and they were expressionless to anyone.
Lu Li found many large shops and auction houses in the city. Whatever one wanted, one could buy it as long as one had Celestial Stones.
Lu Li even saw a Holy Weapon in a large shop. It was not a powerful Holy Weapon, but it was a Holy Weapon nonetheless. It was placed in the hall …
A few days later, Lu Li had learned a lot of information. He had gained some understanding of the Black Tortoise City. He had been eavesdropping and had learned a lot.
"Let's go!"
Ten days later, Lu Li's token began to melt. He hurried out. Outside the city, he did not go to the Black Fox Mountain. Instead, he took a detour.
He traveled for thousands of miles and found a place to enter the Holy Mountain. The Holy Mountain shrank. Lu Li told the Holy Mountain to conceal its energy. Then, he used the trace of Dao to sense.
"Whoosh!"
Not long afterward, Lu Li heard a slight noise coming from behind him. Then, a strand of psychic power came like a breeze.
When the psychic power locked onto the Holy Mountain, it trembled.
"Buzzing!"
Lu Li flew the holy mountain over and stopped above the warrior's head. He said coldly, "You are here to track me down, right?
Who sent you? "
It was a warrior of a strange race. He was skinny and looked like a monkey. He had a protruding mouth and cheeks, and there was hair on his face.
He was not strong, only at the Quasi Emperor Realm.
That alien race warrior was noticed by Lu Li but he didn't mind. He said casually, "This mountain belongs to you?
Can't I just pass by? "
"Pass by?"
Lu Li snorted, "You have been watching me for a few days in the city. You think I don't know?
You have the guts to do it but not the guts to admit it? "
"So what if I admit it?" The skinny alien race warrior snorted, "Do you have the guts to kill me?"
"If I really kill you and destroy your body, what can you do to me?" Lu Li responded with a question.
"You can try!"
The skinny alien race warrior sneered, "If you do something here and I die, the Desolate Race has a strange way to track you down."
"Eh?"
Lu Li was a bit surprised. He smiled and said, "Then go on. I want to see if you can catch up with me. You are just a nobody."
"Whoosh!"
The holy mountain tore through the air at an extremely fast speed, disappearing into the distance in the blink of an eye.
The skinny alien race warrior's eyes were wide open and his mouth was agape. Lu Li was so fast that he couldn't catch up with Lu Li even if he broke his legs.
After a while, Lu Li stopped the holy mountain. Then, he got out and flew towards the Black Fox Mountain.
It was easy to find the Black Fox Mountain. It took Lu Li two days to find it. The mountain was not big and it was made up of black rocks.
It looked like a black fox, which was why it was named the Black Fox Mountain.
Lu Li circled around the mountain to make sure that there were no warriors lurking around. Then, he rushed toward the mouth of the Black Fox Mountain. There was a cave there which was clearly the entrance.
After entering the entrance, Lu Li walked along a mountain path. Not long after, he saw a gate, but it had been broken.
Walking into the main hall, it was also a mess. Many places had been destroyed, and some walls had large holes dug out. It was likely that some of the Night Pearls and the like had been dug out.
Lu Li moved on. Along the way, he saw halls, corridors, and side halls. But they were all ruined and hollowed out. Many glyphs were destroyed.
It had been a long time since this place was discovered. Many powerful warriors must have come in to search.
"Blood Fairy, it is up to you!"
Lu Li was not in the mood to search. There were many halls, like a maze. Lu Li's head was getting dizzy after walking around. He might as well let Blood Fairy do the work.
Blood Fairy only needed to go and find out which glyphs were not destroyed. Then there must be treasures in the halls. There was no need to search where the glyphs were broken.
