Volume 1 Beicang's First Understanding of the World's Trends Chapter 39 Undercurrent
At this time, Xu Chenglin cursed his bad luck in his heart. He went to the dark market and did not expect to encounter so many Qi Condensing monks. That was all, but he also encountered Qi Condensing monks clearing the place and driving people away, which was really infuriating.
"Huh! Forget it, who makes me not as strong as others? Besides, even without these Qi Condensation monks, I can't get the barrier-breaking pill."
It was both self-comfort and the fact that Xu Chenglin suppressed the depression and helplessness in his heart and carefully walked out of the dilapidated hut.
After leaving the hut and looking at the surrounding environment, Xu Chenglin recognized that the location was not too far away from Wanzhen Building. After a little identification of the direction, he walked towards the Yuanhai Branch Hall.
In the hall of the Yuanhai branch, Xu Chenglin told Uncle Sun exactly what he saw and heard in the dark market. Regarding the appearance of Qi Condensation monks in the dark market, he was even more focused on reporting. Uncle Sun had finished listening.
Xu Chenglin's brows couldn't help but frown as he spoke.
"It is indeed abnormal that there are so many Qi Condensation cultivators gathered in this small dark market."
Uncle Sun accidentally said what he was thinking.
"Listening to your words, I seem to think that the existence of some of your body-burning monks is just a deliberate arrangement to spread suspicion. The real transactions should be those Qi-condensing monks. If this is the case, then the dark market has a lot of plans.
ah."
Since he had accidentally spoken out his words, Uncle Sun was not hiding anything. He spoke his analysis slowly, his brows slightly furrowed as if he was thinking about something.
"What does it mean to deliberately arrange a formation to raise suspicion?"
Xu Chenglin had doubts in his heart, so he asked bluntly.
"It is definitely not an accident that so many Qi Condensing monks gathered at one time. This dark market should be a secret transaction for the Qi Condensing period. The existence of the body-forging monks is just incidental, just to spread suspicion. In the end, those Qi Condensing monks were not harmed.
You guys, they just kicked you out, so it can be seen that they didn’t have any ill intentions. Otherwise, do you think the Qi Condensing monks would be kind enough to take care of your safety when they are fighting for things?"
After Master Sun's explanation, Xu Chenglin also noticed something. Carefully recalling the conversation between several Qi Condensing monks in the dark market, it turned out that it was exactly as Master Sun analyzed. Those Qi Condensing monks had not called out the price before, and seemed to have been waiting.
What? He didn't start taking action until the barrier-breaking pill appeared. Just when Xu Chenglin was about to ask something else, a young monk from outside the house hurriedly ran in. Seeing this, Xu Chenglin swallowed back what he was about to say. Who came?
It was Yuan Haitang who was responsible for inquiring about information. He saluted Master Sun in the first seat and then raised his eyes to look at Xu Chenglin.
"If you have anything to do, just say it. There are no outsiders here."
Uncle Sun waved his hand, looking indifferent.
"yes!"
The young monk responded and at the same time raised his eyes to look at Xu Chenglin.
"Uncle Master, I just found out the news that the barrier-breaking pill suddenly appeared in the dark market of Yuanhai City. There were four Qi Condensing monks participating in the fight for the barrier-breaking pill. In the end, the barrier-breaking pill was taken away by a monk dressed as a scribe.
The remaining three people were slightly injured, and the two Qi Condensation monks responsible for running the dark market were missing."
The young monk stated the information he had found out concisely.
"Yes, I understand. This news is very important. I'd like to thank you for your hard work. Go down and rest."
Master Sun said to the young monk kindly with a smile on his face.
"Thank you, uncle!"
The young monk saluted and thanked Master Sun, and then left the hall.
The information that the young monk found was roughly the same as Xu Chenglin's report, except that it added the whereabouts of the Barrier-Breaking Pill and the condensed information.
The situation of the Qi monk. To be honest, Xu Chenglin admired this young monk very much. It was only a few hours ago that the barrier-breaking pill appeared in the dark market. Even Xu Chenglin, the person involved, did not know the complete news, but this young monk
He grasped the news at the first time. This person can be said to have great supernatural powers.
"Hey, things are not going well in Yuanhai City again, and a big drama is going to be staged again. Boy, please watch the fun with me."
Uncle Sun looked at Xu Chenglin with a smile, looking enigmatic.
"It's not peaceful? Could you please ask Uncle Master to clarify your doubts?"
"Hmph! Since you came to Yuanhai City, you have been busy practicing and practicing, and you have neglected some of the worldly things. If you want to know what's going on, why don't you go find out yourself."
Uncle Sun glanced at Xu Chenglin, picked up the spirit tea on the table and sipped it carefully.
Seeing this scene, Xu Chenglin was very interested and hurriedly took out a jade box from his storage bag and handed it to Uncle Sun.
"Uncle Master, look at this. This is the spiritual tea I specially found for you in Fangshi."
"Boy, you're just making up your mind. Even if you bribe me, I won't tell you. Find your own way to find out, and you can go away."
Uncle Sun opened the jade box and took a look at the spirit tea, pointed at Xu Chenglin and laughed and cursed.
"Uncle, what are you talking about? This is my way of honoring you!"
Xu Chenglin touched his nose, feeling slightly embarrassed.
"Okay, okay! Get out of here, I need to rest early."
Uncle Sun collected the jade box, waved his hand as if to shoo away flies, and pushed Xu Chenglin out.
Xu Chenglin laughed twice, turned around and left the hall without saying anything else.
"This kid..."
Looking at Xu Chenglin leaving, Uncle Sun shook his head helplessly.
At the gatekeeper of Yuanhai Hall, Xu Chenglin spent a few spiritual stones and easily bribed the disciples guarding the gate, and found out why Yuanhai City was not peaceful. The two previous times when the barrier-breaking pill appeared in Yuanhai City, it was followed by bloody storms.
.Xu Chenglin was in deep cultivation at that time, and Master Sun had no one to inform him of his intention, so he didn't know about it.
At this time, all the forces in Yuanhai City received news of the reappearance of the barrier-breaking pill. Although the Qi Condensing monk dressed as a scribe got the barrier broken, he also suffered some minor injuries because he competed with three monks of the same period.
Therefore, he did not leave Yuanhai City immediately. Due to this slight delay, many forces in Yuanhai City reacted and arranged their manpower to prepare to seize the barrier-breaking pill.
In the face of common interests, all forces in Yuanhai City are surprisingly united. But once the interests of each family are involved, especially if it affects the distribution of forces in the city, all forces will fall into constant battles. Like a broken
No force is willing to give up the barrier pill, a combat resource that can influence all forces. The Xu family relied on its long-term presence in Yuanhai City and was the first to take action, leading the crowd to block the city gates. Several other small families
The alliance formed by the families was not idle either. They sent their own children to form teams and searched the city. The alliance formed by these small families was not really of the same mind. Everyone wanted to monopolize the Barrier-Breaking Pill, so this small alliance seemed to be in harmony but not in spirit.
"Damn, damn it. Damn Yuanhai City, damn dark market."
A middle-aged man dressed as a scribe beat the folding fan in his hand and cursed angrily.
He coughed a few times, and a trace of blood flowed out from the corner of his mouth. He wiped away the blood angrily, and his heart was full of anger. During the fight, he was injured accidentally. Although the injury was not serious, it was an obstacle.
It affected the normal operation of his aura, making him unable to use spells freely for a few hours. Normally, he would not have cared about this minor injury. But now,
He faced the pursuit of the entire Yuanhai City, as well as the pursuit of at least three Qi Condensation monks. Unexpectedly, he, a dignified late Qi Condensation monk, would also be in trouble one day.
After sneezing loudly twice in succession, Ghost Face subconsciously wanted to touch his nose. Since he was wearing a mask, he had no choice but to push the Shura mask on his face.
"As expected, someone is scolding you again. It's no wonder. You used the Barrier Breaking Pill to trick people again. It's normal for someone to scold you."
The Smiley Messenger with Qi Condensation cultivation chuckled, his tone full of mockery.
"It's nothing. My spiritual energy is gone. My nose is slightly uncomfortable. It's not like anyone is scolding me. Besides, this matter has nothing to do with me. I'm just following orders. It's none of my business. Speaking of which.
I feel really bad for the Barrier-Breaking Pill. It was something I had finally obtained with so much difficulty, but let that person get it in vain."
"What does it mean to go in vain? Didn't he promise us two things that are not against his own interests? These two promises from the monks in the late stage of Qi Condensation are very valuable. Besides, our casual cultivator alliance is one of the seven powers in the world after all.
How could you care about a small barrier-breaking pill?"
The Smiley Messenger looked very relaxed and indifferent.
"Having said that, I still feel sorry for that barrier-breaking pill." Ghost Face sighed.
"Don't feel bad, we should watch a big show next. The internal forces in Yuanhai City seem to be in dispute, but they are actually united and unanimously reject external forces. Our casual cultivator alliance has sent people to Yuanhai City many times, but they have always been met with resistance.
They suppress us openly or covertly. We can’t be strong on the surface, so we have to do it covertly.”, the smiley messenger said.
"This method of driving away wolves and devouring tigers is really clever. Every once in a while, a barrier-breaking pill is released, causing other Qi Condensing monks to make a fuss in Yuanhai City. At the same time, it also indirectly divides the forces in Yuanhai City.
. It not only created conditions for our forces to move in, but also avenged the many suppressions we encountered before. What a wonderful plan, killing two birds with one stone." Ghost Face sighed with hindsight.
"Although the strategy is good, it is just a cunning trick. It can only deal with some people who are stupid and stupid. There are also sensible people in Yuanhai City. The heroes of the world should not be underestimated."
While talking about the Smiley Messenger, he took off his mask. The face behind the mask was familiar. If there were regulars from Yuanhai City, they would definitely recognize that this person was one of the owners of Yunlai Inn.
A young man with an elegant face—a Sanjin from Dongzang.
"Are you talking about the group of people in the outer hall of Jiuhua Academy? The master of the outer hall is really too calm. He didn't intervene in the commotion caused by the Qi Condensing Pill several times. As expected, he has everyone's spirit.", all ghost faces are there.
Said with admiration.
"Yes, it is worthy of being one of the six major forces in the world. It is really naive to want to attract others with just a barrier-breaking pill."
"Are you going out? Don't you want to make some disguise?"
"That's almost it. It is estimated that all the forces in Yuanhai City should have discovered that late stage Qi Condensation. Otherwise, these people are really idiots and wasted the information I secretly provided them. As for disguise, there is no need for it.
.The entire Yuanhai City knows about my existence, and they all know that my breakthrough was due to the barrier-breaking pill that appeared in Yuanhai City. Since everyone already knows about my cultivation, I will not hide it."
The Dongzang Sanren walked outside leisurely, looking calm and relaxed.
"By the way, you made a mistake just now. The current cultivation world is the top seven in the world, and our casual cultivator alliance is no worse than them!"
The ghost looked at Dongzang Sanren and gave a belated reminder.
"Yes, among the seven forces in the world, we are not inferior to the other forces."
The Dongzang Sanren paused for a moment, then quickly walked out.
Chapter completed!
