Chapter 1151: Chapter 1171: I’m also a Local Tycoon, Absolutely!_1

Since Lin Chen had confirmed that someone was attempting to kill him, he left the commercial flying boat and traveled across the continent on a shuttle-shaped flying boat.

From Xixi State, to Nan Yuzhou, and finally to East Emperor State.

Originally, Lin Chen wanted to visit Gu Yuexi along the way, but due to the marked imprint still on him, he decided not to go temporarily to avoid bringing any disaster to her.

Although Xuanji Fairy could not erase the marked imprint which was cast by the caster at the cost of their life, she told Lin Chen that the imprint would fade over time, and it was estimated to exist for only a year and a half or even less.

After passing by the city near Cang Mountain, Lin Chen entrusted the merchant association to send a jade slip to Cang Mountain.

In the jade slip, there were words from Gu Yuexi’s parents to her, as well as messages from himself to her. She would presumably be more at ease knowing that he had met her parents and provided them with various elixirs to ensure their health and longevity.

Lin Chen continued eastward and waited for the killers to arrive as he hurriedly traveled.

Unexpectedly, the killer did not appear by the time Lin Chen arrived in the East Emperor State.

Could it be that they hadn’t caught up with him?

It took two months along the way, and the imprint had faded considerably but still existed. Judging from the situation, it would take at least three to five months to completely eliminate it.

Near Mount Wan Jue, there was a city called Wanjue City. Lin Chen stayed in Wanjue City and entrusted the merchant association to send a jade slip to Chu Jiaxue, informing her that the old man was now with him at Nanyue Hengshan.

It was now early July, and there was half a month left until the Elixir Trading Festival on July 15th.

Many cultivators arrived in Wanjue City, apparently in preparation for the upcoming trading festival.

This time, Lin Chen came with a lot of money and was prepared to splurge.

The goods of the Three Ghosts Gate had all been dealt with, and most of the treasures in the 50% treasury of Baishishan Cave World were also processed by Lin Chen, with a total income of nearly 500 million spirit stones.

A true big spender.

Apart from the spirit stones, Lin Chen also brought along many high-quality magical treasures, such as those confiscated from immortal slaves, the primordial spirits of the Void Profound Experts at the Baishishan Cave World, the experts of the Ten Thousand Ghosts Sect, and so on. In any case, it was always wise to bring more items for trade.

What if someone wanted a powerful treasure instead of spirit stones?

Half a month passed by in a flash.

On Mount Wan Jue, there was a flat area several miles long at the waist of the mountain, which was forcibly cut out by a mighty force. The ground was covered with white jade bricks, and the edges were all white jade railings carved with various divine beasts—dragons coiling around phoenixes, qilin proudly stepping forward. The atmosphere was magnificent.

A wide wooden table was arranged on the White Jade Square, and each table was a booth where anyone who came to participate in the trading festival could sell their various elixirs.

The auction house was located near the mountain, standing like a palace. It was a building-based magical treasure, serving all participants in the trading festival.

If you had a highly valued elixir and were worried about not being seen by a buyer who needed it, you could apply for an auction.

There were two requirements to enter the auction process: first, the elixir must have a certain high quality and price, and second, a 10% handling fee of the final auction price must be paid.

The entire area was surrounded by array formations, and all cultivators who wanted to enter had to pass through the identity recognition array formation at the main entrance. The main function of this array formation was to identify the human and demon races.

Demons were not allowed inside.

Who knew whether you, a demon, would cause trouble after entering?

What if you entered and immediately exploded, wouldn’t everyone be finished?

Xuanji Fairy sent a message: "I won’t go in. I’ll wait for you outside. Otherwise, passing through the recognition array will cause fluctuations and draw attention."

"Alright!"

Lin Chen readily agreed, understanding that the identification array should be similar to the security system used in the human world’s airports. Even if you were invisible, as soon as you entered, you would still be detected.

Lin Chen was not worried about his safety. In addition to his own strength, it was explicitly forbidden to fight in the trading market. Those who violated the rules would be expelled, have their cultivation crippled, or even be executed directly.

In the survival-of-the-fittest cultivation world, no one would reason with you if you didn’t follow the rules.

The trading festival market was divided into three areas according to the approximate value of the items sold: single-item goods worth less than a million spirit stones, those worth between a million and ten million, and those worth over ten million.

The four main ingredients to refine the Daluo Reincarnation Pill were Jade Phoenix Grass, Flawless Fruit, Divine Thunder Sky Wood, and Bodhi Blood. Each of these was a rare and precious item in the world.

The value of these four main ingredients was more than ten million spirit stones each. To be precise, they belonged to those with high value but few buyers, so it was uncertain whether they would be available even at the Elixir Trading Festival.

"Go directly to the high-grade area. If these few medicines are available, they will definitely be in the high-grade area. Then, take a look at the auction house. There’s a high probability that they will also appear in the auction house, after all, everyone wants to sell at a higher price..."
