Chapter 1489 Trap or Opportunity?
Ye Xiao still stayed in the inn waiting for news, and took a look at the pile of books that the Black Evil Lord brought back.
They were called books, but in fact they were just a few introductions and various lists.
Heaven list.
Earth list.
World list.
Random cultivator list.
Medicine list.
Pill list.
Poison list.
Beauty list.
Young master list.
Evil list.
Hunting list.
Bounty list
...
In short, there were as many as twenty or thirty lists of all kinds.
Anyway, it seemed that all the livelihoods in the Boundless Sea, all the things that could be ranked, could all be displayed with lists.
The Boundless Sea area belonged to the group without any official power, and there was no upper-lower connection; the most direct way for warriors to show their glory was to show it on the relevant lists.
Over time, the list of the Boundless Sea became famous, and it was recognized even in the jurisdiction of the five great emperors.
This was the interpretation of the Black Evil Lord on these lists.
Ye Xiao didn't care much about the lists of powerful cultivators such as the Heaven Ranking, Earth Ranking, and Fengyun Ranking. He was not interested and just glanced over them; because...
"Even if I improve rapidly, it will be difficult for me to get into the list in a short period of time. Let's wait until my strength reaches that level before we can talk about it..."
What really interested Ye Xiao were the lists of niche ones such as the Medicine Ranking, the Pill Ranking, and the Poison Ranking.
"These are useful, very useful."
When he opened the Ranking of Free Cultivators, it was the one where the Black Evil Lord was so proud and boasted that he was ranked 3,487th.
Ye Xiao only read the first page and then closed it.
On the first page of the Ranking of Free Cultivators, there was only one person, a middle-aged man with a handsome face and a clear demeanor, his eyes slightly narrowed, looking into the distance; beside him, there stood a gun, like a poisonous dragon lurking in the abyss, with its edge not showing.
"The Poison Dragon Spear, the king of all weapons; it is the most difficult to defend against without a trace; it can lock the victory from a thousand miles away, and its cold light shines in the clouds above the sky. The leader of the Random Cultivator Ranking, the Poison Dragon Spear King Mo Wen!"
The following is a detailed introduction to the Poison Dragon Spear King, such as his life record, personality traits, temperament, appearance, characteristics of his skills, and evaluation of his strength and cultivation, etc.; at the end, there is a sentence: Mo Wen has a thousand changes and thousands of incarnations, and his appearance is not based on this picture.
The first page, more or less, passed by like this.
Ye Xiao couldn't help but smile in his heart: It seems that the introductions of those people later are mostly like this.
There will be no exceptions...
Then he opened the Medicine List.
The content of the Medicine List is much more substantial than other lists; a full thousand pages, listing a full thousand kinds of records of genius treasures.
Ye Xiao was fascinated by it.
"The so-called genius treasures I saw in Qingyun Tianyu before are indeed far different from the contents listed on this medicine list, and are completely incomparable..."
Flipping casually, a graphic introduction of a spiritual medicine came into view.
A dark flower, but the stamens showed seven colors: red, orange, yellow, green, blue, and purple; the Netherworld Seven-Colored Butterfly.
And this flower is called a butterfly.
"Medicine list ninety-nine, Netherworld Seven-Colored Butterfly; a hundred years to conceive spiritual roots, a hundred years to show silk seedlings, a hundred years to grow a branch, a hundred years to grow three leaves, a thousand years to form a flower bud, listed among the spiritual medicines; a hundred years to attract colorful butterflies, to achieve a seven-color heart; a hundred years to bloom, it is a Netherworld Butterfly. It drifted away overnight and scattered in the world."
"The Netherworld Seven-Colored Butterfly, a rare product nurtured by the spirit of heaven and earth, cannot be planted or transplanted; a thousand years to form a flower bud, and another five hundred years to bloom, the flower blooms overnight, if no one picks it, it will automatically disappear between heaven and earth, non Those who are destined to have the method cannot obtain it. "
"After 1,500 years of baptism and tempering, it blooms overnight; the blooming colorful butterfly is a rare treasure of genius and earth; even a quarter of an hour before blooming, it is just a useless flower."
"Take it, it can save broken veins, heal broken pills; gather scattered souls, improve cultivation... The main material of the holy healing pill Lingyuan Duanxu Pill is suitable for warriors above the Shenyuan realm and below the second level of the Shengyuan realm. It is useless for those above the second level of Shengyuan."
Ye Xiao took a deep breath after watching it.
This is only the 99th ranked spiritual medicine, and the growth and picking conditions are so harsh...
But its efficacy is also amazing.
Although it is not in the eyes of Ye Xiao, who has a large amount of Danyun Shendan, for others, even high-level cultivators like the Lord of Black Evil, I am afraid they will also flock to it. After all, with a butterfly in hand, no matter how it is used, it will be of great benefit to oneself, extraordinary!
Ye Xiao suddenly had an idea, and suddenly left his thoughts from the many lists, and turned to the organization that compiled these lists, and became very interested.
How much financial, material, human and military resources are needed to produce such a detailed, precise list?
Moreover, to make such a list, whether it is the need for martial arts cultivation, the understanding of various realms, and the cognition of countless things are indispensable.
But how could a capable person with such ability, experience, and knowledge spend so much time on these seemingly boring and even useless things?
At least for him, it should not be of much use, right?
It is convenient for people all over the world.
Could it be the legendary great and noble sentiment of sacrificing oneself for others? !
Ye Xiao absolutely did not believe that there were such profound practitioners in the world who were so devoted to others and had no self-reflection!
The road is long, and it is even more difficult to move forward, let alone distraction!
Ye Xiao, who was confused and puzzled, suddenly looked at the words at the bottom of the title page of the list and was speechless.
That's the editor's name——
Four words, revealing the secret.
"Being able to come up with such a thing is indeed a secret for those who are on the list... All of his trump cards and killer moves are all clearly recorded on it..."
"This editor is really too scary."
"This person who leaked the secret is probably an organization, and it is definitely not possible to be one person. If there is only one person, then even if he has lived for hundreds of thousands of years and has been working hard to study and research, he will not be able to fully understand so many different things. Category, these knowledge in different fields, not to mention understanding the information and knowledge of so many people."
"In fact, this organization called "Leaking Secrets of Heaven" is the real number one sect in Wujiang Sea...or it is not limited to Wujiang Sea. I'm afraid that even if it is placed in the entire world of mortals, it is also a top-ranking tyrannical force. ”
"Including... those royal forces..."
Ye Xiao took a breath.
Ye Xiao's mind was spinning. When he looked at these lists again, he felt that his mood was different from before.
"The content of the Ranking List cannot be fully trusted and can only be used as a reference. If you want to target someone among them, you need to find another way to understand his background; this is just a brief introduction. But the Medicine List and Pill List Poison The contents recorded in the list can be completely believed. These are fixed things. If there are any mistakes, I am afraid that someone with a heart will have found them out..."
Ye Xiao was completely immersed in the contents of the three lists of medicinal erysipelas.
He knows that the present is a great opportunity to enrich his own heritage; if after a period of time, for example, after he becomes familiar with the situation in the world of mortals, his mentality will naturally change, and he will no longer insist on asking more questions about everything. I can study it.
At that time, with the subtle changes in my mind, I am afraid that I will be like other masters in Tianwaitian, just buy a few books on the list and throw them in the space, and take them out to look through when I meet someone. Just find a rough idea of the target information...
However, doing so will undoubtedly waste unnecessary time and even delay the fighter jet.
So what Ye Xiao has to do now is to write down the contents of these lists completely, print them all into his mind, and make them his own.
In this way, no matter what stage I am at, I can use this list to make my own interpretation of each person's injuries, poisoning and other factors before and after the war.
That's the foundation you really need.
Although the Danyun Divine Pill made by a second-rate person is a panacea, it is too dazzling. If there is no proper disguise, I am afraid that this cheating device of mine will be exposed sooner or later. After all, I am still weak and it will do too much to me. It never hurts to build several disguises!
Just like that, the afternoon passed by in a hurry.
During this period, there was an unexpected discovery that surprised Ye Xiao.
There are some rare medicinal materials listed on the medicine list and poison list. In Ye Xiao's impression, they are actually cultivated in the Wanyao Mountain space; and the quality is much higher than what was described above.
Thinking of this, Ye Xiao couldn't help but feel itchy and wanted to go in to see what was going on.
If my impression is correct, then the cause and effect is probably huge!
Wanyao Mountain seems to come from Qingyun Tianyu, but in fact the real owner is a guy called "Magic Stick". This "Magic Stick" is the most mysterious and "divine secret" guy that Ye Xiao has ever encountered in his life. .
He almost didn't play with Can Ye Xiao at the stone tablet array he left behind at Wanyao Mountain that day, but Ye Xiao didn't dislike this "magic stick" as much as the "lonely" one, but instead admired him greatly.
Among the people Ye Xiao met, the one with the highest cultivation level was undoubtedly Meng Huaiqing, the most resourceful was Zuo Wuji, and the one with foresight and fortitude was Mr. Bai, but even if the three were combined , still can't compare with this "magic stick" in any aspect!
Moreover, it is really...the gap is too big to be justified at all.
And... the mysterious organization that currently compiles various intelligence materials and makes these lists in the world of mortals may be called a leaker of secrets, but this magic stick is the one who is truly unpredictable!
In fact, it's not just the "magic stick", there's also the sword, the dragon, the phoenix, the rain of flowers in the sky, and the extremely annoying loneliness, any one of them is a super power that can surpass Meng Huaiqing's level!
And Wanyao Mountain comes from this "magic stick", so I am afraid that I have not yet discovered the details of Wanyao Mountain...
Hmm... does this mean that I can also use Wanyao Mountain to cultivate rare species that are beyond the world of mortals?
It must be, it must be!
Just when Ye Xiao was thinking about it——
"Young master, I have entrusted you to go out." The Lord of Black Evil, who was dressed like a businessman and had made himself bloated, walked in happily.
Ye Xiao frowned and said, "Why are you going to the auction dressed like this?"
"How is this possible?" The Lord of Black Evil was very proud: "We are a veteran of the Jianghu. From the time I went there to the time I came back, Lao Hei, I changed my appearance in more than twenty ways, and traveled thousands of miles in detours... …Absolutely unaware.”
Ye Xiao smiled and said, "You are cautious. I will just say one more thing. It is better for you to come back in your original appearance when you come back in the future. You should know that the person living here is the Lord of Black Evil. But a completely unfamiliar bloated fat man suddenly came in, but he did not show up... Once the matter is seen by someone with ulterior motives, it will be a huge flaw."
"Yes, yes, yes... I actually overlooked this point." The Lord of Black Evil nodded repeatedly.
He was a little surprised in his heart.
Isn't the young master a novice who has never ventured into the world of martial arts? Why is what he said now more meticulous and precise than the average old martial arts master? This kind of experience, meticulousness, caution, and almost watertightness, even the old martial arts master who has ventured into the world of martial arts for many years can't do it...
How did he do it? Is this because he is mature at a young age, wise as a demon, or something else? !
"Have the things been handed over to the auction hall of the Brotherhood?" Ye Xiao asked, "How is the reaction there?"
Whether the things are good or not, how much price they can be auctioned for; these can be roughly seen from the reaction of the auction hall when they are handed over. Ye Xiao had also run an auction house, how could he not know this?
"The person in charge of the auction house in Chaos City, the Brotherhood, almost went crazy. It was a good thing for him if he didn't die of excitement...haha..." The Lord of Black Evil lowered his voice and looked excited: "It was decided on the spot to postpone the auction ten days later. They have to do a good job of publicity and strive to auction at the best price."
Ye Xiao frowned and said, "Then, what about the price?"
The Lord of Black Evil took out a space ring and said, "The normal commission of the auction house is 10% of the transaction price. The other party expressed his willingness to discount it by half on this basis, that is, half of the price. In addition, I also asked them for some advance payment. This money... is not much, but it is enough to solve our urgent needs."
"Is this okay?" Ye Xiao glared.
When he was running the auction, he would never allow such a thing to happen. No matter how precious the transaction items were, there was no situation of reducing the discount ratio by himself. As for the advance payment, it was even more absurd. He never expected that the auction house here would be more relaxed than when he was in Hanyang Continent.
"If it were for ordinary customers, they would definitely not be so lenient. Isn't the content of this transaction special? The things we brought out are all good stuff that these people will never see in their lives. How can they not give preferential treatment? Besides, they are not afraid of us running away at all."
The Lord of Black Evil grinned: "To put it bluntly, they would like us to take these purple spirit coins and run away directly; if that happens, the huge wealth auctioned will have nothing to do with us."
"That's true. How much discount did they give? Is there a thousand purple spirit coins?" Ye Xiao laughed and casually checked the ring. He was shocked by what he saw: "So many? How much is this?"
"Twenty thousand purple spirit coins."
The Lord of Black Evil was very proud and said: "Not much, it's probably only one-tenth of the items we took over."
"Don't touch this money for the time being; you go find a suitable place for our next move, just confirm it, don't alert the enemy." Ye Xiao instructed lightly.
"Young Master, you are new to the world, so you may not know the value of this money... With this money, it is enough to buy the place we are targeting!" The Lord of Black Evil widened his eyes and asked in confusion.
"I think you are the newbie in the world!" Ye Xiao scolded angrily: "You just got so much money, and then a rich man appeared in the chaotic city, buying such a large area to build a large building... The auction hall only needs to use a little bit of thought to know that we are the owners of those rare treasures!"
"Do I need to continue to talk about the follow-up?" Ye Xiao said angrily: "If that's the case, do you think the two of us can survive tonight? If I were the deacon of the Brotherhood Hall, the first thing I would think of is whether that person has more rare treasures. Even if not, there are at least 20,000 purple spirit coins, and the huge wealth from the auction will all go into the pockets of the Brotherhood Hall!"
The Lord of Black Evil broke out in a cold sweat when he heard this, and his face turned pale with fear, and he turned directly into the Lord of White Evil.
Just as Ye Xiao said, if he did that, it would be like putting himself in front of the powerful forces of the Brotherhood Hall. He would try to reason with the powerful forces, talk about morality, and talk about the morality of the underworld. He would be so stupid that he would not survive tonight!
"It's really dangerous!" The Black Evil King was still frightened, but he was lucky and said: "Young Master, would the people of the Brotherhood be so shady?!"
"It's not that they are shady, this is the minimum precaution, but you are really too careless." Ye Xiao looked at him steadily and said lightly: "Old Black, if you still do things like today without a brain... I'm afraid..."
Sweat dripped down the face of the Black Evil King.
"Yes, young master, I remember, and I will never make such a mistake again." The Black Evil King was terrified.
At this moment, Ye Xiao's eyes made the Black Evil King feel a kind of pressure that even his heart was tightening.
That was a kind of power that only belonged to the superior.
This kind of might made the Black Demon King's scalp tingle, and a feeling of fear rose up.
…
The largest restaurant in Fenluan City, Jietianlou.
In the room on the top floor.
Young Master Xiao was still wearing a white robe as white as snow, sitting quietly on the terrace, looking at the sky and water in the distance, silently.
"Young Master, great news." A man walked in carefully.
"oh?"
"Two of the three types of exotic metals that the young master named are needed are currently missing, and they are in Chaos City."
"Where? In whose hands?"
"fraternity."
"kindness……"
"The Brotherhood just informed me that they have confirmed the receipt of Hongmao Copper and Jinxiu Steel. And they are not light, they are very big..."
"Huh?" Mr. Xiao frowned and said, "There are only these two kinds?"
"Not only these two kinds, they also received Star Trace Iron, Dao Gold, and Chaos Silver, a total of five precious exotic metals. Unexpectedly, the young master just came to this city, and five precious metals appeared at the same time. It can be seen that God is blessing the young master. Fulfill your wish.”
"I'm afraid this matter is not that simple." Mr. Xiao frowned and said calmly: "Not to mention that if any one of these five kinds of strange gold appeared in the world, it would cause an uproar. How could they suddenly appear at the same time? This is already unusual, and what’s even more unusual is that...the Dao Gold and Chaos Silver are already much more valuable than Universe Iron; even Hongmao Copper and Jinxiu Steel are even better than Universe Iron. Such an opportunity would never have been possible if it had not been man-made..."
"They received five kinds of exotic gold in one breath, but they didn't have the slightly lower value Qiankun Iron?"
"That doesn't make sense."
"And this thing itself... is a bit weird. I just said I wanted these metals, and they immediately appeared here... Could this... be someone's deliberate arrangement, or... could it be a trap?"
The sharp light in Mr. Xiao's eyes suddenly flashed, and then he said in a deep voice: "I ordered you to go down and check carefully."
The voice was low, but the tone was very calm.
However, the surrounding air suddenly became distorted and dense, and a vague, real and illusory voice suddenly came out from the empty air, saying: "Yes."
The next moment, the space was distorted again for a moment, and then everything returned to its original state.
It seems that someone was there just now and is gone now. Or maybe someone was really there just now, but another person was here to guard the place. The original person has left...
"However, whether it's an opportunity or a trap, there's a good chance that my flute will be reshaped here. And it's... unprecedented, the best flute in the world." Young Master Xiao murmured, his eyes filled with excitement. The brilliance of hope.
"The jade flute appears, and the chaos is boundless." Mr. Xiao murmured: "It really makes sense..."
However, Mr. Xiao did not expect the key point, that is, he collected all the metals.
However, what is finally built will definitely not be Yuxiao.
It could be an iron flute, a steel flute, a bronze flute, or even...a gold flute, a silver flute...but it couldn't be a jade flute!
