Chapter 181 Black Stone City

After leaving Wuxi Mountain, Chen Luo spent half a month to return to the area where Black Stone City was located.

The towering mountains reached the sky. Even if you had seen them once before, you would still feel shocked when you saw them again.

On the way up the mountain, Chen Luo got on the carriage to the inner city again.

The cold wind was biting halfway up the mountain, and the cave that he had destroyed had long been restored. After a short rest, under the guidance of the monks at the inner city post station, they finally entered the inner city of Black Stone City.

As soon as they entered the mountaintop area, the air warmed up.

Compared with the bad weather at the foot of the mountain, the mountain was like another world.

"You can stay in Black Stone City for ten spirit stones a day. Your temporary identity cards can only be used for three days. If you don't renew them after three days, the formation will take the initiative to expel you."

After the monks at the post station threw a token to them, they drove away.

Those who came to Black Stone City also knew the rules here, and left in a hurry after taking the temporary token.

Chen Luo stood alone at the entrance of the main street of Black Stone City. With his spiritual sense spread out, he could clearly feel the rich spiritual fluctuations in the air. This is the location of the third-level spiritual vein, and it is also the place where the Black Stone Ancestor is in seclusion.

People are coming and going on the street, and all kinds of vendors are doing different businesses. Chen Luo noticed and found that all these people in Black Stone City are immortal cultivators. Even the vendors who are selling and setting up stalls there have the cultivation of the initial stage of Qi Refining.

There is no ordinary person.

"Let's find a place to rest first, and then ask about the exercises and the news of the Demon Sect."

Chen Luo walked along the main street and found a well-decorated inn and walked in. There were few people in the inn, and someone greeted Chen Luo as soon as he entered the door.

"Sir, what would you like to eat?"

Chen Luo found a seat by the window and sat down. He glanced at the sign hanging on the counter, and a trace of surprise flashed in his eyes.

The high price is a must, mainly these dishes.

Chen Luo saw demon cultivator meat for sale on the menu. Although it was only a demon beast in the Qi Refining Realm, it was already a luxury to be able to use it to cook. In the Shenhu Xianmen, the number of demon beasts was pitifully small. He had spent a lot of effort to buy some demon beast heads. As a result, here, demon beasts were actually treated as food.

"This, this, and this. All those with heads, give me one!"

Chen Luo stretched out his hand and ordered more than a dozen dishes in a row.

He had enough spiritual stones on him, with the legacy of Elder An and the support of Yue Qingping, as well as the tribute from the forces under Wuxi City. He had never counted how many spiritual stones he had on him.

"Okay."

Seeing Chen Luo's boldness in ordering dishes, the waiter suddenly became excited.

Even the shopkeeper smiled.

Such behavior naturally attracted the attention of the people at another table. There were not many people in the inn, and Chen Luo ate so many dishes by himself, which naturally made people unable to help but look at him twice. A man and a woman even stood up and sat down opposite Chen Luo.

"Is this your first time in Black Stone City?"

After the two sat down, the woman in white asked curiously.

Chen Luo glanced at the two.

Qi Refining Level 9 and Qi Refining Level 10, one is in the late stage of Qi Refining and the other is in the perfect stage of Qi Refining, not weak.

"It is indeed the first time here."

Chen Luo smiled slightly. He was going to ask for information, and it was great if someone took the initiative to deliver it to him.

"Are you two cultivators from Black Stone City? Can you tell me about the general situation of Black Stone City?" As he said that, he took out two spirit stones from his storage bag and placed them on the table.

This is a medium-grade spirit stone.

One is equal to ten low-grade spirit stones.

He had just scanned with his spiritual sense, and the strongest person in the entire inn was the man sitting opposite him. With the cultivation level of Qi Refining Level 10, he was the most suitable person to inquire about the situation.

"You are polite, fellow Taoist."

The man showed a hint of joy on his face.

It's not that they are poor, but the consumption in Black Stone City is too high. Although this place is rich in spiritual energy, it costs ten spiritual stones for every day of stay. He and his sister have spent all their family savings to stay here. They came to the inn today to take on some tasks to see if they can make some extra money. Unexpectedly, they met such a local rich man before they received any tasks.

"Black Stone City is the dojo of the Black Stone Patriarch. The whole city is built on the third-level spiritual vein. The closer to the holy mountain, the more abundant the spiritual energy. Going out, Black Stone City is divided into three areas, which are occupied by Black Stone Mountain, the Hundred Demons Alliance and the Loose Cultivators Alliance respectively."

Three major forces?

Chen Luo nodded.

"Except for these three major forces?"

"That's a lot. The third-level spiritual vein is very attractive. In addition to the three major forces, there are nearly twenty small and medium-sized sects. These sects are all attached to the three major forces, and they all hang the signs of the three major forces when they are outside."

Chen Luo nodded and wrote it down.

He didn't hear any news about the Demon Clan from the man, and he wouldn't be stupid enough to ask directly.

If the power of the Demon Sect is really that great, someone would definitely report the news if he asked, and it would be troublesome if he attracted other people's attention.

"Which faction do you two belong to?"

"We are disciples of Baoyin Pavilion. Our Baoyin Pavilion is one of the twenty small sects mentioned just now. The head is a foundation-building immortal cultivator with very strong strength." The woman added.

After eating a meal, Chen Luo had a general understanding of the situation in Blackstone City. Unlike the chaos outside, Blackstone City was very safe. The three major forces did not allow others to cause trouble here, and the Blackstone Ancestor was in charge. , for the casual cultivators in the evil cultivating land, Black Rock City is a holy land, a place they dream of.

After sending the two of them away, Chen Luo stretched out his hand and tried it on the brains of these cooked monster beasts.

'Unable to read. ’

This result was no surprise. After paying the bill, he got up and left the inn. After you have inquired about the general situation, you will have to do your own thing later.

The third building on the left is the Fangshi of the Hundred Demons Alliance.

Chen Luo's first goal is the pill forming technique. Even if you can't buy the technique, you still have to buy the materials needed for the Jade Bone Pill. The 'Demon Bone Formation Technique' he obtained from the pig demon is the top body-training technique. The reason why he has not started it yet is because he lacks resources.

Jade Bone Pill can solve this problem.

Enter Fangshi.

Chen Luo first bought some news about the market, and then stopped for a cup of tea in front of a shop. After making sure that I was looking for the right place, I walked into the store.

"I need third-level skills and blood chalcedony, please give me a price." Blood chalcedony is the main material for refining the Jade Bone Pill. This thing is not available in Baigu Ridge or Wuxi Mountain.

The shopkeeper in the elixir shop looked over, glanced at Chen Luo up and down, and said.

"Are you sure you're not kidding me? Ask me about the techniques! There is also blood chalcedony, which is a second-level top spiritual material. Even if such a thing really exists, it is impossible for a small shop like mine to sell it."

"Not one thing?"

Chen Luo frowned. He used his spiritual sense to observe before coming in. This shop also does some secret business. In theory, it should be the place with the most complete information in Black Rock City.

The shopkeeper stood up and walked over, taking something out of the cabinet.

"I don't know where fellow Taoist heard about the shop, but the two things you mentioned are really not something that ordinary spiritual stones can solve."

As he spoke, the shopkeeper opened the box in his hand, revealing a jade talisman inside.

"This is the jade talisman of our Yuquan Chamber of Commerce. With this thing, you can go to the secret meeting, where you may be able to buy what you want."

As he spoke, the shopkeeper moved the box over, but pressed his hand tightly on it.

Chen Luo took out a bag of spirit stones and threw it on the table. When the shopkeeper saw this, he just smiled and did not take his hand away.

"not enough."

Chen Luo's expression turned cold. The bag of spirit stones he threw out was quite a lot. The shopkeeper clearly planned to kill him like a fat pig.

"you sure?"

Chen Luo stretched out his hand and pressed it on the other end of the box, and the aura belonging to Foundation Establishment escaped.

The expression of the shopkeeper across from him froze, and his face suddenly turned pale. The hand on the box was involuntarily loosened.

"I was wrong. Senior gave me these spiritual stones."

The shopkeeper immediately retracted his hand, and when he was about to touch the storage bag, he found that it was empty. The storage bag that was originally full of spiritual stones now only had a solitary spiritual stone left there.

Robbery is definitely not allowed, it is against the rules of Black Rock City, and Master Chen's conscience can't bear it, so he deliberately placed a spiritual stone so that it wouldn't be considered robbery. At most, he would be able to bargain.

The shopkeeper pressed his hand on the spiritual stone and swallowed.

The entire medicine shop fell silent the moment Chen Luo released his foundation-building aura. Foundation-building monks belong to the upper echelons even in Black Rock City! It is simply not something that monks like them in the Qi Refining Realm can provoke.

"Senior, I am also a member of the Yuquan Chamber of Commerce. Our boss is the Black Wolf King of the Hundred Demons Alliance."

"I know."

Chen Luo took the jade talisman and patted the shopkeeper on the shoulder.

"I'm asking you, do you have enough spirit stones?"

"That's enough."

The shopkeeper gritted his teeth and nodded in agreement. This time, he was at fault first. He really angered the other party and killed him. As the other party was a foundation-building overhaul, the most he could do was to be punished with a few spiritual stones. It was impossible for anyone to really hold the other party accountable.

"That's no problem."

Chen Luo collected the jade talisman, turned around and walked out.

It wasn't until Chen Luo left that everyone in the shop breathed a sigh of relief. Several people quickly left to report the news about the strange foundation building to their sects. Only the shopkeeper stood there, his face turning green and white, and it took him a long time to recover.

This business is a big loss!

"How's it going? Shopkeeper, how much did you earn?" A casual cultivator with a sinister look on his face rushed in from outside. This man was also in the inn before.

He had been eyeing this fat sheep since Chen Luo spent money generously. After leaving the house, he immediately came here and sold the information about the 'fat sheep' to the shopkeeper, hoping that he could make a big fortune.

"roll!"

As soon as he saw this person, the shopkeeper felt angry in his heart.

If it weren't for this kid, why would he suffer such losses? Treating Foundation Establishment Overhaul as a 'fat sheep' is just what this idiot would do.

The shopkeeper's heart bleeds when he thinks of the spiritual stone he paid in advance at a loss.
