Chapter 191: Counterattack
"Hehe"!
Xu Yang looked at the noisy street, laughed helplessly, and then turned around and went back into the shop.
"Did you get cheated by that black-faced man? The order in this market has always been good, and I haven't heard of anyone cheating here recently." The middle-aged shopkeeper asked when he saw Xu Yang return.
"It's okay. Although the price of a spiritual ginseng is not a small amount for me, it is not a burden."
"Please rest assured, I will report this matter to the law enforcement court immediately. It is also a serious crime to sell stolen goods in the sect market. If he is a liar, he will be exposed sooner or later."
"That's not necessary. Let him go. Please give me two more spiritual ginsengs. It doesn't matter if the quality is slightly worse."
"Young master is really generous and kind-hearted. There will be good rewards." As he said, the shopkeeper took two more high-quality spiritual ginsengs for Xu Yang.
Xu Yang took the spiritual ginseng and looked at it. Compared with the previous one, the quality was indeed worse.
"I want both of these spiritual ginsengs."
"Two of them cost a total of 100 high-grade spiritual stones. I'll give you a 20% discount."
"Why is the price so different from the previous one?"
"My lord, you don't know that the spiritual ginseng just now is a spiritual mountain ginseng collected from Baishan Mountain. It is a top-grade ginseng spirit that can transform into a child. This ginseng spirit is good at earth escape and is extremely difficult to catch. When it was caught, it was severely injured and lost its human form. Its value was greatly reduced, and it came to my shop. If it was an intact ginseng baby spirit, it would probably have been purchased by a large business alliance or sect."
"Thank you, shopkeeper, for clearing up my doubts."
Although Xu Yang was on duty at the Wood Spirit Academy and had seen many spiritual materials from heaven and earth, he had never seen the so-called ginseng baby spirit with his own eyes.
I only heard people say that this formed ginseng baby is extremely useful for cultivators. It has the miraculous effect of increasing life span, consolidating foundation, and even bringing the dead back to life. Especially the white mountain ginseng baby, which is produced from the sacred mountain of heaven and earth, is a treasure that is invaluable.
Xu Yang took out eighty high-quality spiritual stones and handed them to the shopkeeper, then put away the two spiritual ginsengs and left the shop.
He went around several other shops in the market and purchased some materials for alchemy and many high-quality talismans, and bought some for Ah Zhu.
Xu Yang's little beast "Peach", since it used its instinctive Nine Nether White Light to swallow the purple thunder of the heavenly tribulation on the floating island on the top of Beiqing Mountain in Xiaoxianjie last time, a lightning-shaped purple line has appeared on its back.
At first, Xu Yang was a little worried that it could not bear it. After all, the power of the purple thunder of the heavenly tribulation was too great, and even the thousand snakes as powerful as the holy beast could not resist it. And the little beast "Peach" is just a low-level spiritual beast with the Taoism of the Void Realm.
But in the past few days, the little beast is not only intact, but its cultivation has obviously increased a lot, and its appetite has also increased. Therefore, Xu Yang purchased some more dried meat as a reward for it.
Although there is no spiritual contract between this little beast and Xu Yang, they are like close friends. Xu Yang always gives some to the little beast when he drinks, so it is not an exaggeration to say that they are drinking buddies. The relationship between the two is getting closer and closer.
Xu Yang, who returned with a full load, was about to leave the market, but found that someone seemed to be following him quietly behind him, but every time he looked back, he could not find any clues of the person following him.
Xu Yang was not panicked, and deliberately walked around the market for a few circles, and then entered a teahouse.
He brewed a pot of good spiritual tea, sat down and drank it slowly, and glanced at the door of the teahouse from the corner of his eye, and vaguely saw a black shadow flashing by.
"Ding Yi and Ding Er have been here, and it seems that Ding San is coming this time." Xu Yang turned his mind and whispered.
"Shopkeeper, is there a toilet in this teahouse?" Xu Yang asked loudly.
"The toilet is in the backyard of the teahouse, please go, sir." The waiter standing by said.
"This is the tea money, the rest is for you to keep for drinking." Xu Yang took out three medium-grade spirit stones and placed them on the table.
"Thank you for the reward, young master. Please come this way." As he said that, he pointed to a side door leading to the backyard of the teahouse.
Xu Yang stood up, looked around, and turned to enter the backyard.
After a while, Xu Yang left the teahouse.
After leaving the market, he walked on the road to the teleportation station.
As usual, there should be a constant stream of people on this road, but today there are surprisingly few people. After walking for a while, there is no one in sight.
"Young Master Xu, please stay."
He was wondering in his heart, and suddenly heard someone calling his name, so he stopped and turned around.
A tall man wearing a purple brocade gown appeared behind Xu Yang. This person wore a bamboo hat and a black ghost mask on his face, making it difficult to see his true face.
Xu Yang stared at the person opposite him without saying a word.
The masked man saw Xu Yang not speaking and walked over.
At this moment, on a huge rock behind the masked man, earth-colored ripples flashed, and a figure emerged like a cicada shedding its shell.
This figure actually looked exactly like Xu Yang opposite the masked man, except that he had a golden flying knife in his hand.
I saw the fire wings behind him roll up, and a fire-colored figure flew through the sky like a hunting hawk.
The next moment, the tip of the golden-winged flying knife in his hand had already touched the back of the masked man.
Looking at Xu Yang opposite the black-clothed man, a colorful light flashed around his body, and the light dissipated, and a spiritual ginseng fell to the ground.
"Your name is Ding San, right? Tell me! What do you want to see me for? If you can't explain it, go to the King of Hell to line up." Xu Yang squeezed out a sentence coldly from the corner of his mouth.
"Ahem!"
The masked man coughed twice, and then said, "How do you know my name is Ding San? I'm not Ding San."
"Tell me the truth, who are you? You were the one who played Ding Yi and Ding Er before, right?"
"My name is Ding Si." The masked man said calmly without panic.
"Hehe." Seeing that the masked man was still willing to argue with him, Xu Yang couldn't help but sneer.
"Ding Si is a good name. Fortunately, you are not called Ding Shi. I will poke four holes in your back. I will have a mark when I see you next time, so that I won't have a bad memory and recognize the wrong person next time."
As Xu Yang said this, he pushed the tip of the knife in his hand forward slightly, and the masked man's clothes on the back were instantly pierced, and the tip of the knife pierced half an inch into the flesh.
"Huh?"
His golden-winged flying knife clearly pierced into the flesh of this person, but no blood flowed out.
Xu Yang was stunned.
"Bang", at this moment, a large piece of black mist burned around the masked man.
Xu Yang rolled up his fire wings behind him, and his figure jumped three feet away like lightning.
Looking at the black fog again, a long black feather swayed and fell to the ground.
Before Xu Yang could stand firm, a black shadow flashed behind him, and the masked man had already appeared behind Xu Yang.
The masked man stretched out a finger, and a black light condensed on the fingertips, like a blade, against the back of Xu Yang.
"Fortunately, your name is not Xu Shiyang, otherwise I would poke ten holes in your back to prevent me from finding the wrong person next time." The masked man said without any loss.
"Hahaha."
Xu Yang was not afraid, but suddenly laughed.
"You are about to die, what are you laughing at?"
"I laugh that you will die faster than me."
"Xu Xiaoxian, you can use any tricks you have."
"Since you know my name is Xu Xiaoxian, do you know who my master is?"
"Who is your master?"
Xu Yang certainly would not say that his master was Guigu Yeyan, but just delayed time and waited for the opportunity to escape.
At this time, Xu Yang heard Ah Zhu's voice transmission in his mind: "Xiao Xian, I'm ready."
Xu Yang looked at the black feather that fell to the ground in the distance, and his mind was full of thoughts: "This man in black dared to swagger and follow and tease me repeatedly in the territory of Tiangui Sect. It seems that he should be someone in Tiangui Sect. But I haven't offended anyone in Tiangui Sect? Could it be that someone is thinking about the Flame Spirit on my body?"
Thinking of this, Xu Yang said loudly: "My master is Ning Tianqi, the head of the first battle hall of Tiangui Sect. Otherwise, how could I, a mortal, have the strength to defeat the opponent in the True Dan Realm with only the cultivation of the Void Realm."
Ning Tianqi is one of the powerful figures in Tiangui Sect that Xu Yang knows in his heart.
Ning Tianqi is the head of Fenggui Hall, the first of the seven battle halls of Tiangui Sect. Except for a few old monsters in Tiangui Sect who have been in seclusion for a long time, there should be few people who can be Ning Tianqi's opponent. This masked man is probably an internal ghost of Tiangui Sect, and he should not dare to offend Ning Tianqi.
The masked man was indeed startled when he heard it.
The fingers that were originally against Xu Yang's back inadvertently moved back half an inch.
"It's time."
Xu Yang's consciousness moved, and with a flip of his wrist, a stack of fire-attributed detonating talismans appeared on his right hand.
The next moment, there was a loud bang.
A huge red flame suddenly exploded where Xu Yang was, and the masked man and Xu Yang's figures were quickly submerged in a rolling fire.
This stack of detonating talismans was the top-grade fire talismans that Xu Yang had just bought in the market, and the explosive power was far greater than that of ordinary detonating talismans. The flames were raging, and the ground within a radius of ten feet was shattered, the soil was scorched, and no grass grew.
A huge phantom of a firebird with its wings flapping rose from the fire. And the phantom of the firebird was wrapped around Xu Yang's figure.
In just one breath, Xu Yang's figure appeared ten feet away, unharmed.
The flames around him subsided, and Xu Yang looked back at the raging flames behind him.
"Even if you don't die, I will let you take a good bath in the fire, huh?" Xu Yang couldn't believe his eyes.
In the raging fire, a figure walked out with his hands behind his back. It was the masked man. The flames were like wild beasts, and once they touched the masked man's body, they rolled back like a docile lamb.
The masked man's body showed a trace of light gray armor woven by magic power.
"What? Yuanhun realm monk!"
Now, Xu Yang was a little at a loss.
The armor condensed by the masked man's magic power on the outside of his body was the soul domain armor that only the Yuanhun realm monks could use.
Soul domain armor is a skill derived from the soul domain technique released by the Yuanhun realm monks. Its function is similar to that of the soul domain. It can greatly reduce close-range damage and emphasize close-range defense.
But it is rare for the masked man in front of Xu Yang to use the soul domain armor so freely. You know, the explosion just now was within a few feet of the black-clothed man.
At this moment, Xu Yang felt not only the crisis in his heart, but also the first time he personally experienced the power of the Yuanhun realm cultivator.
With the wings of fire behind him, he was about to escape.
But the masked man flashed and blocked in front of Xu Yang at the speed of almost teleportation.
He said lightly: "My dear disciple, you are so cruel to your master."
But the voice was completely different from before, and it was something Xu Yang had heard before.
