The ancient village of Jixian is an ancient ruin in the Demon Prison.
The ancient village covers a vast area, no less than any large city in the Sword Region. Since its discovery, this place has become a natural base for all explorers who come here.
Because this ancient village is the only place in the Demon Prison where you don't have to worry about monster attacks.
There seems to be an unknown power in the ancient village, which makes all monsters stay away from it.
When the three of them arrived, the village was already crowded.
Li Kezhou's arrival aroused the idea of interested people, and it spread in the village at an extremely fast speed.
There is no king in the ancient village, so naturally there are no rules. No one dares to come here alone. At first glance, at least they are in groups of three or five.
Anyone who comes here with little power is likely to become the target of hunting. Although this place is known as Yihui, transactions are never as fast as robbery.
The three of them were walking in the village, and there were stalls selling goods everywhere. Behind each stall, there were many people standing eagerly, with fierce expressions on their faces, as if they would do anything if they refused.
Wherever Li Kezhou passed, a long line of people hung behind him.
"That's right! It's Li Mochen, the Saint of the Sword Academy."
"What! Are you really reading that right? Is this man crazy and has lost his cultivation, so he still dares to come here? The two women beside him are obviously powerless, and three people with no cultivation come here.
Isn’t this a sheep entering a tiger’s mouth?”
"It's indeed a bit unusual, so these people are waiting and watching, not wanting to be the first to do it!"
"I heard that he has that supreme treasure on his body. If the information is true, I am not afraid that no one will take action today. Let's wait and see what happens. Don't be the first to take action, because when it comes to that thing, it will definitely be a big deal.
In a melee, whoever strikes first will definitely become the target of public criticism..."
"That's right! Look around, there are not just sword cultivators from my sword domain here, there are countless people from the God and Ming clans, and the cultivation of these people is extraordinary."
Li Kezhou heard such discussions word for word, but he turned a deaf ear and still accompanied the two women while strolling on the street.
But Diehuang on the side frowned secretly.
She thought that they would be unnoticed when they came this time, but as soon as they arrived, she knew that her idea was too naive, and countless eyes looked at them.
To be precise, he looked at the man beside him. Everyone's eyes were the same, only endless greed.
"It seems that it was a mistake to let you escort us here this time! I found at least three emotions on the faces of these people, one is greed, the second is hatred, and the other is gloating. You know this
Does it mean anything?"
Li Kezhou smiled slightly when he heard Diehuang's words: "I would like to hear the details..."
"Greed is because they must know that you have some kind of extremely precious treasure; hatred is even more simple, you killed people related to them; as for gloating about misfortune, it means that you have lost all your sword energy, they know it clearly.
Each of these will make you a target..."
"So what?" Li Kezhou remained indifferent.
"If you fall into the spotlight, you will put both of us in the same situation." Diehuang's face looked a little unsightly.
"You should be glad that you chose me. If you had asked others to escort you here, you would not have gotten here at all, because you would have died in the hands of the hirer immediately."
When Diehuang heard this, he remained silent.
"Stop talking nonsense. If you still remember the purpose of coming here, then look for it quickly! If you find what you want, I won't have to worry about anything later."
Diehuang said no more and returned his gaze to the densely packed stalls.
The Burial Realm Demon Prison is indeed too vast, and there are countless opportunities. You can get a glimpse of it from the things sold on the ground.
Ancient sword talismans that are rare outside have almost become a common thing here. In addition, there are countless rare treasures.
Suddenly! Diehuang's eyes lit up and he walked slowly to a stall.
There were six people sitting or standing behind this stall. These people obviously formed a group to sell their gains for safety and to avoid becoming hunting targets.
"What's the price of this thing?" Diehuang asked, pointing to a fist-sized black lotus.
"One hundred... one thousand... ten thousand kendama!" The speaker changed the three prices in an instant.
Judging from the clothes this man was wearing, he was obviously from the Sword Domain, but he was not a disciple of the Sifang Holy Land.
Often this type of person doesn't have too many kendama in his hand, and one hundred is the limit. The price he calls out for the first time is obviously what he has in mind, and the rest is nothing more than a lion's mouth.
As soon as the price of 10,000 yuan was announced, several people around the person who spoke were so frightened that their eyebrows trembled, and they shouted that this beast really dared to ask for a price. This amount, to them, was simply an astronomical figure.
Seeing that Diehuang didn't say anything, Li Kezhou wanted to take out the sword jade and buy it, but suddenly interrupted: "There are four entrances to the Burial Realm Demon Prison, and they are guarded by the Holy Lands of the Four Directions. Which entrance did you guys come in from?"
"Why do you ask this?" The man looked wary.
This person was obviously not from Shenlan Sword Domain, and he did not recognize Li Kezhou's identity.
Li Kezhou smiled slightly: "As far as the Qishang Sword Academy is concerned, any non-Sword Academy disciple who uses the entrance of the Sword Academy to enter the Demon Prison will have all his income returned to the Sword Academy."
Li Kezhou's words are enough.
But the meaning of the words was very clear, naming the reasons why everyone came here to sell treasures.
Because the treasures obtained by these people are not their own at all. Once they are taken out and handed over to the Holy Land instantly, the only benefit they can get is to sell as many kendama as possible here, and the kendama will not be confiscated.
The man's expression changed a little.
Because the facts are exactly what the other party said.
Even if the price of these treasures he obtained was one kendama, he would have no choice but to sell them reluctantly, because if he didn't buy them, they would all be confiscated after he left, and there would be no benefit at all.
"Now let's talk about it, how much does this black lotus cost?" Li Kezhou asked with a half-smile.
"One hundred! It can't go any lower. If it's less than one hundred, I'm willing to destroy it."
As soon as the price dropped to a decimal point, Diehuang's eyes showed joy. Without saying anything, he took out a hundred kendama and handed it to the man.
When she was about to get the black lotus, the man suddenly blocked her hand with his sword.
"Wait a minute! I have changed my mind. One hundred kendama are exchanged for the Black Water Lotus that I have worked so hard and endured almost nine deaths. I feel like I have suffered a big loss."
The man held out five fingers: "Five hundred! Give me another five hundred kendama, black water lotus, and you can take it."
Diehuang frowned.
She is naturally not that easy to deceive. The man in front of her is so untrustworthy. Even if he offers five hundred, the other party will still ask for a higher price. This is not a sword realm and there is no moral restraint.
Li Kezhou smiled faintly: "Friend! I advise you to pick up this black lotus and hand it to this girl as soon as possible. Otherwise, today, not only will you not get the five hundred kendama you imagined, but you will also lose your life for it.
.”
"Clang Clang Clang!!"
There was a sound of a sword being unsheathed.
A group of six people, everyone is on guard.
"Boy! I think you forgot where this is. Hand over your storage bag, or I'll kill you."
Li Kezhou laughed when he heard this: "The sale failed, so we committed robbery. You guys insisted on using your lives to solve things that can be solved with money. Since then, you have left a lot of money for us."
