The buildings in Giljin Town are all made of rock.

Except for a few pavilions made of rock carvings or caves dug out of large protruding rocks, most of the buildings are actually inside the meteorites.

Over the course of tens of thousands of years, countless monks, like mice, dug out an underground city inside the meteorite.

The people who can appear in Gilded Town are all monks, mainly in the Broken Realm. Their lowest strength is in the Great Saint Realm. They have low status. They carry special alchemy equipment and various Taoist supplies, which can withstand the power of vacuum. There are various restrictions on living beings, and there are also various formations in the gilded pit space inside the meteorite.

Li Mu and Ding Yi inquired along the way, and after stopping briefly among the buildings on the surface, they entered the underground space.

The Jinyang Sect was extremely harsh on the exploitation of past monks.

I originally thought that when I entered the town, after paying the tax, I could travel unimpeded in the town. However, when I entered the underground space, I had to pay the 'entrance tax'. When passing through some underground areas, there were still some Jinyang Sects. The disciple reached out for money.

The wealth in the starry sky is generally equivalent to immortal crystals.

It was also through the exchanges with some people in the town that Li Mu understood that the reason why fairy crystals can become a symbol and representative of wealth is because they contain star energy, which can be absorbed by monks and refined into their own energy. .

In this sense, the effect of Immortal Crystal is similar to that of the Star Stone on the Shenzhou Continent in the past.

But there is no doubt that Immortal Crystal is of higher quality.

The Star Stone can only be regarded as the waste ore that remains after the Immortal Crystal was mined, but it is enough to make warriors on lower planets flock to it.

After Li Mu figured out how to absorb the energy from the fairy crystal, he took out a silver fairy crystal on the spot and tried to absorb it. Sure enough, he felt a pure energy pouring into his body along the palm of his hand. Such a cultivation effect, It is even better than practicing in some cave heaven paradise.

"Um……"

Li Mu rubbed his temples.

He cursed in his mind how stupid he was.

I hold so many fairy crystals in my hands, but I haven't even known how to absorb and utilize them for such a long time. I really feel like I am sitting on a treasure mountain without even realizing it.

Ding Yi was on the side, looking at Li Mu, and said in surprise: "You didn't know about such a common sense thing before?"

Li Mu sneered: "Of course I know, it's just...well, I don't want to waste the fairy crystal like this."

Ding Yi chuckled: "You obviously don't know, your acting skills are too bad."

Li Mu's mouth twitched and he looked at him with a fierce expression.

Ding Yi immediately felt a bit of toothache and said quickly: "However, this is not your fault, because the power of the stars in the fairy crystal can only be absorbed by warriors in the Broken Realm. Under the Broken Realm, the meridians cannot withstand such stars. If you forcefully absorb the power, you will suffer the consequences."

While the two people were talking, an open space appeared in front of them.

The voice is at its peak.

It turned out to be a small market.

There are many people setting up stalls on the ground. There are all kinds of strange things on the stalls, including broken weapons, herbs with strange fragrance, dark ores, maps made from the fur of unknown creatures, and some interesting things. The cubs look cute and cute, as well as various Taoist alchemy items...

All in all, it’s a dazzling array of things to see.

This scene gave Li Mu an eye-opening feeling.

The stall owners put up signs and wrote down their requirements. Some only accepted barter, and it had to be designated items, while others accepted transactions with fairy crystals.

The sound of bargaining can be heard constantly, and it is quite lively, as if it is a vegetable market on earth.

Li Mu observed carefully.

He found that in addition to humans, there were also various other strange races in the market.

Some were wearing various strange costumes, some were covering their faces with star-patterned masks, some were covered in such haze that it was impossible to see their true appearance, some were showing their confidence in their own strength without covering up, and some had goat horns on their heads. , there are also people who have human bodies and animal heads, looking ferocious and terrifying.

All creatures are monks, surging with powerful aura, and most of them are in the broken state.

Such a monk would be a powerful figure in the mainland of China or the world of Bitter Star, but in the galaxy, there is no difference between ordinary mortals. In this market, which is like a vegetable market, there is a bustling crowd. , for the sake of profit, they bargained for a few immortal crystals, and they were so embarrassed that their faces turned red...

Insect realm!

No wonder the Shattered Realm, which is regarded as a martial arts myth in lower stars, is called the Insect Realm in the galaxy.

This is the style of Xinghe.

Li Mu sighed.

Ding Yi had already inquired around and came back: "Someone saw the two Saint Sons of Blood Sea heading towards the teleportation array at the post station in the center of the town."

Li Mu nodded and asked: "Are there so many people in this market every day?"

"That's not the case. It just so happens that there is a market meeting in Gilded Town today, so the monks, miners, herb collectors and businessmen in this area all gather here. I have inquired about it, Gilded Town has one episode every half month, twice a year. Fourteen episodes, there will only be so many people during the episode. If it is on weekdays, there will not be so many people."

Ding Yi is really asking questions.

His talent in inquiring about information was fully demonstrated before the battle between good and evil in Shushan.

Li Mu heard this and understood.

This is a bit like the customs of many rural villages in the deep mountains of China on earth. Time and date are calculated according to the lunar calendar. Villages and towns in eight villages and ten miles apart have separate market times. Here is the market on 135, and there is the market on 246. Villagers scattered across ten miles and eight villages prepare early for the market. They set out before dawn, carrying living animals on their backs, and walk dozens of miles of mountain roads. They feel that farmers' products are sold in the market and they buy what they need. Vendors walking among the major markets also drove early to wait at the market.

Each side gets what it needs.

The two of them went to the station teleportation array according to the news Ding Yi learned.

As the core area of ​​the entire Gilt Town, the central teleportation array can be said to be the most lively place besides the market.

It is also a square.

The square is carved with horizontal and vertical star lines, which are densely packed and intricate, like a Go board, but different and more complicated.

At the intersecting nodes of the star lines, a small pavilion like an altar was erected.

The pavilions are not big, and can only accommodate a dozen people at most. Some of them don't even have roofs, and the railings are damaged. They are all made of white stone. After countless years of erosion, the rocks are mottled and the edges and corners have been worn away.

In these pavilions, milky white light is constantly shining.

Every time it flashes, a figure will appear in the pavilion and then walk out, or the figure that originally entered the pavilion will disappear.

This is the teleportation array.

This large square is the transfer yard of Xingchen Station.

Those pavilions are where the teleportation formation is located.

Through these teleportation arrays, monks from other different regions and planets are teleported here, or used as transfer points to other regions.

In the Yingxian Star District, a network of teleportation arrays extending in all directions has long been established. Through these teleportation arrays, monks can travel to different planets and regions and can achieve long-distance crossings in the shortest time. This is much better than using the physical body to cross The void of the universe saves time and trouble, and is much safer.

In this sense, Star Station is a bit like an airport or a train station on earth.

This is the mode of transportation between stars under the development of martial arts civilization.

Li Mu felt that, viewed this way, martial arts civilization and technological civilization seemed to have the same goal. They both served people with different principles but similar results.

The Star Station in Liujin Town is small and located in a corner, just like a remote mountain village on earth.

Therefore, there are no more than thirty transfer formations in total in this square, and half of them are idle on weekdays, because this star area is really not a wealthy place, and the number of people coming and going is limited, so it is only during the market today that they can It will look so busy.

At the entrance to each small white pavilion's teleportation formation, there is a table. Two or three Jinyang Sect disciples are sitting in front of the table, collecting teleportation fees, just like toll collectors at highway entrances and exits.

In the starry sky, this is also one of the rules.

After all, teleportation arrays are developed, maintained and managed by different sects. The use of the array consumes energy, and the daily maintenance of the array also requires manpower and material resources. The monks need to pay according to the distance of the teleportation distance. Only a certain proportion of the fee can be used to use the teleportation array.

The monks of Jinyang Sect next to the pavilion are arrogant, arrogant and lazy.

These disciples have long developed a pair of 'fiery eyes', and they are most interested in seeing what others are doing. Casual cultivators who have no background or background are often levied extra taxes, and casual cultivators dare not speak out.

Ding Yi went to inquire around and came back, cursing: "Damn, these Jinyang Sect bullies are really greedy, they are just picking off skin and drinking blood..." He was just asking for information, and he had just stepped in In the square, taxes were forcibly collected, and later they were blackmailed by several Jinyang Sect disciples.

Li Mu said: "How's the business going?"

Ding Yi said: "Oh, if you don't tell me, I almost forgot... I have found out clearly that the two Saint Sons of Blood Sea have not yet used the formation to leave. They are probably still in the Gilded Town, and they don't know where they are hiding. No, we have to be careful, these two guys must be simmering in trouble."

"Okay, let's go back to the market."

Li Mu turned around and walked towards the market he passed just now.

Ding Yi followed and asked unexpectedly: "Don't we stay outside the teleportation square and monitor? Maybe the Blood Sea Saint and the two will appear soon. If we go back to the market, we may miss them and let them slip away."

Li Mu smiled and said: "Chasing the two Saint Sons of Blood Sea is just a means, not an end. Chasing them to the end may not really kill them. Besides, now, I have a better way... Let's go shopping first. , just relax, hehe, besides, if you can find something missing in the market, what kind of treasure will you find?"
