Chapter 48: White Dragon Mountain Black Market
The largest black market near Guiyunfang is Bailong Mountain. Bailong Mountain is located more than a thousand miles northwest of Guiyunfang. It is controlled by several foundation-building casual cultivators. The Bailong Mountain black market opens once a month. It is said that there are many things that cannot be found even in Guiyunfang. Many cultivators near Guiyunfang go there to purchase spiritual objects.
After all, there are many things that cannot be seen in the light in the black market. There is no need to care about the source of the items sold. There are casual cultivators, robbers and all kinds of people. It has always been despised by the famous and upright sects. Xiaoyao Sect also explicitly prohibits its disciples from going to such places.
"Senior Shi, when I was in the market, I heard from a friend that there are foundation-building pills for sale in the black market near Guiyunfang. Senior, do you know whether it is true or not? Are there such spiritual objects in the Bailong Mountain black market?" Seeing that the atmosphere had been laid, Song Qingming asked a question with a little intention.
"Foundation Building Pill? I don't know whether this spiritual object is true or not. I have heard people say that there was an auction of Foundation Building Pill in Bailong Mountain before, but I have never seen it with my own eyes and I don't know whether it is true or not. There are also many such news that those people deliberately release to attract cultivators. Even if there is, it has nothing to do with us, right?"
Shi Mofeng was also a little surprised when he heard Song Qingming ask about the Foundation Building Pill. He looked at Song Qingming meaningfully. In the eyes of a casual cultivator like him, it is unlikely to smell the scent of a spiritual object like the Foundation Building Pill in this lifetime. He never thought that Song Qingming would actually ask him about the news of the Foundation Building Pill.
Seeing Shi Mofeng was a little confused, Song Qingming quickly explained: "I just heard about it and asked casually. I think the news should be false. Hey, I thought I could see the foundation-building pill."
"That's hard to say. You are still young and you may have this opportunity in the future. However, if you want to say where there is a foundation-building pill near Guiyunfang, then it can only appear in Bailong Mountain. But the black market does not welcome strangers. If you want to go, you can ask Feng Laogui in the team to take you there and let him be your guide. Those who want to go here ask him to lead the way. He is familiar with the place and goes there at least two or three times a year. It is safer to have him with you. , you must be very careful when you get to that kind of place. Many wanted bandits in the market will appear there. If you are not careful, you will be easily targeted. Although Feng Laogui is a bit stingy, he is also righteous. As long as you don't treat him badly, there will be no big problem in terms of safety. "
After listening, Song Qingming nodded and said, "Thank you for your advice, senior. If I go there in the future, I will be careful."
Feng Laogui mentioned by Shi Mofeng is a cultivator of the sixth level of Qi Refining in the team. He got this title just because he looks ugly. However, this guy has a very powerful gold-attributed technique, and he has a puppet to help him fight. His combat power is quite good, and sometimes he dares to fight with high-level monsters.
Song Qingming had a good impression of Feng Laogui. He was a bit fussy, but once Song Qingming was chased by several mid-level monsters during a mission. Feng Laogui happened to be nearby. Feiyunwei was equipped with some spiritual objects for help. Once they were entangled by monsters during the mission, they could release these distress signals. The fellows nearby had to come to the rescue after seeing them.
Seeing Song Qingming send out the distress message, Feng Laogui, who was closest to him, was the first to rush to the scene. The two of them got away after a little effort. Afterwards, Song Qingming came to thank him. Feng Laogui insisted that Song Qingming compensate him with two talismans, saying that he used them to save Song Qingming. Song Qingming had no choice but to give them to him. Although he knew that this might be Feng Laogui's nonsense, he still saved him once. A few talismans were not as important to Song Qingming as his own safety.
Shi Mofeng and Song Qingming chatted for a while. Seeing that it was getting late outside, Song Qingming had nothing to ask, so he stood up and said goodbye. He stopped at the door.
"Song Xiaoyou, I heard that you are also a formation master. I just refined a robe some time ago, and I haven't found a formation master to help draw the formation. If you have time, I would like to ask you to help draw one or two formations on it. Don't worry, the reward will never be lower than the market."
"Senior Shi has solved a lot of my doubts today. How can I dare to ask for a reward for such a small matter? I will do my best to draw the formation. Please rest assured."
After Song Qingming finished speaking, he took out a bag of spiritual tea and stuffed it into Shi Mofeng's hand. Song Qingming naturally didn't want to take advantage of so many things he wanted to know from this old man today.
Shi Mofeng nodded with a smile after listening, and then left Song Qingming with satisfaction.
On the second day, the old man Shi really sent a robe over. The robe was shining with gold. It was a top-grade robe. Song Qingming didn't expect that the old man Shi, who was not good-looking and smooth in dealing with things, was actually a top-grade weapon refiner. He was also a little surprised.
He immediately looked at him with a new look and a little more respect. A top-grade weapon refiner is a very popular skill even in Feiyun Guard.
Song Qingming only knew that he was a weapon refiner at first, but he didn't expect that his weapon refinement level was so high.
These people were in the Fuyun Mountains where monsters appeared every day. Although the superiors clearly stipulated that in order to prevent unnecessary trouble, they were only responsible for exploring monster information and were prohibited from taking the initiative to attack monsters, so as not to attract second-level monsters to harass the camp.
However, most of the Feiyun Guards did not take this rule seriously. Some of them would attack some monsters directly outside the camp. Among the monster materials obtained, the weapon refiners and talisman makers were most useful.
Leaders like Lu Yunfei also turned a blind eye to these things. As long as they did not attract monsters to attack the camp, they were too lazy to care about these things.
Song Qingming had been here for two months and had received a lot of mid-level monster blood. It was a pity that he had no idea about these situations when he came here, and he had not made any preparations in this regard. He did not bring any blank talisman paper with him, and this place could not receive such things.
Feiyun Guards had to rotate at least every three months. Even if he wanted to return to Guiyunfang, he had to wait another month. During these two months, he, a mid-level talisman maker, was useless.
It was for this reason that Song Qingming readily agreed to Shi Mofeng's help in drawing the magic circle on his robes.
Drawing a magic array on the robe is like drawing a spell into a talisman. By embedding the original spell into these magic tools in the form of a magic array, these magic tools can have some spells that can be released automatically, which can enhance the effect of these magic tools. However, these are mostly small and common spells, and the improvement of the magic tools is also very limited.
It took Song Qingming three days to finally complete the drawing of the magic array on Shi Mofeng's robe. This time, Song Qingming drew a total of two low-grade magic arrays. One is the "Water Avoidance Technique", which has only some auxiliary effects. It can allow the monks wearing the robe to automatically block rain and walk in the water without getting their clothes wet.
There is also a "Golden Light Shield", which can automatically release a golden light shield to resist one damage when encountering a sneak attack. However, this spell is not of high grade and can only resist the offensive spells of the early stage of Qi Refining. When encountering opponents in the middle and late stages of Qi Refining, the light shield can also play a delaying role, giving the owner of the robe more time to react.
Song Qingming's formation level has also improved greatly in recent years. After comprehending the Liu family's formation books, Song Qingming's formation level is on the verge of a breakthrough. After another year or two of settling down, he will be confident that he can become a mid-grade formation master. Now, drawing two low-grade formations is not a difficult task for him.
