Walking on the street, admiring the surrounding pavilions, Zhan Chen felt relaxed, and it was good to do this occasionally.
After some inquiries, he now knows that this city is called "Beach City". It is a relatively leisurely small city on the Eternal Star. There are not many strong people in this city. I heard that even the city lord is just a
There are strong men with eight-star star realm cultivation, but there are no black hole realm strong men sitting there.
Most of the monks who come here want to stay away from the center of the storm and practice slowly here.
At this time, Zhan Chen was in the city and found that although this city was small, all the resources for cultivation could be purchased, so he took the opportunity to replenish some elixirs, although the price of elixirs here was as high as the price on the Azure Star.
Twice as much as Zhan Chen (this time Zhan Chen regretted not hoarding elixirs when he was in Azure Star), but the price of elixirs was three times that of Azure Star, so he could take advantage of the opportunity to make a fortune by refining elixirs.
.
Just when Zhan Chen walked out of the Spiritual Medicine Pavilion, he accidentally caught a glimpse of a long queue of people in front of a small shop opposite, and many people with higher cultivation levels than himself were also queuing up.
He wondered: "What is so attractive?"
So Zhan Chen also walked up and started talking to a person at the end of the team.
"Fellow Taoist, I just came to this city and saw that this shop did not have a plaque hanging on it, but its business was booming. Why?" Zhan Chen asked curiously.
The man looked at Zhan Chen up and down and said, "No wonder you ask this question when you first come here. I was just like you when I first came here."
"But after I divined here once, I came here a second time, and then a third time, and it came true every time."
Zhan Chen narrowed his eyes: "Can anyone really spy on destiny? Even monks like us can only foresee the coming danger, but cannot know what the danger is specifically. This is the so-called whim."
"Yeah, I didn't believe it at first, but you see there are so many people lined up here, and there are many people who are better than you and me in cultivation. If you don't believe it, you can go in and give it a try. Anyway, it only costs a thousand middle-grade stars at a time.
It’s just crystal.”
"It only costs a thousand mid-grade star crystals at a time. Isn't this expensive? I see there are dozens of people queuing up here. How can you still earn a million mid-grade star crystals in a day?" Zhan Chen said in surprise.
"Yes, you can do it this way, but don't you want to know what dangers you will encounter in the future, or where you can encounter adventures?"
"Of course I do, who wouldn't? But I just don't believe that the other party can tell me accurately."
"Accuracy is impossible. Master Aegina can only glimpse a corner of destiny, but her predictions are much more stable than our whims. You can't place your hope on your own feelings."
"Okay, I will listen to you and try it once with a thousand medium-grade star crystals."
With the idea of rather trusting what he has than what he doesn't have, Zhan Chen also lined up at the back of the queue.
It wasn't long before it was his turn, and Zhan Chen walked into the room with curiosity.
The light in the room is very dark, like a curtain in the dark night. The black dome is studded with twinkling stars, which looks particularly mysterious. In the darkness, a beautiful woman wearing a black cloak is sitting in front of a small table. The table
There is also a crystal ball and a stack of tarot cards on it.
Of course, the crystal ball and tarot cards were the first things Zhan Chen saw, so he was very curious as to what such props were used for.
"Are you Aegina?" Zhan Chen asked.
"Yes, guests from far away, can they sit across from me?" Aegina replied.
The sound is pleasant to the ear, like the tinkling of a clear spring.
Zhan Chen sat down as he was told and placed a thousand star crystals on the table. Aigina had no focus in her pupils and just put away the star crystals with her hands.
Zhan Chen was a little surprised to see her like this, and tried to ask: "Can't you see?"
"Yes, sinners who spy on their destiny will be deprived of all senses by God. I can practice, but I will lose my vision, hearing, smell and touch forever. I can only rely on my soul to perceive and interpret everything."
"No wonder it's like this, but you're so pitiful. Is it worth it?" Zhan Chen couldn't help but ask.
"Is it worth it? Only you know best in your heart. I am very happy to be able to point out the future destiny of my guests and help them seek advantages and avoid disadvantages."
Zhan Chen nodded and said, "Then let's get started. You tell me what to do first."
"Then let me ask you first, what do you want to know?"
Zhan Chen thought for a while and said: "Just predict the future destiny."
"Okay, do you see the stack of cards on the table?"
"Yes, what card is this?"
"This is called a Tarot card. Now you can cut and shuffle it with your hands."
"What is cutting and washing?"
"It means disrupting the stacking order of the Tarot cards in any order, but you have to make sure that you don't deliberately look at the patterns of the cards."
"All right."
Zhan Chen did some random things and then put the cards on the table.
"Now please draw the top five cards in turn and place them in front of me."
Zhan Chen did it again.
Aegina once opened the cards he had placed, looked at them carefully, and then said: "The cards you drew in sequence are the chariot in reverse position, the tower in upright position, and the god of death in reverse position.
The Eight of Wands in the upright position, and finally the Wheel of Fortune in the upright position.”
"What do these mean?" Zhan Chen asked curiously. He really knew nothing about Tarot cards.
Aegina did not answer the question immediately, but said: "Don't rush to interpret these cards now, let me try to predict your fate."
She placed her hands on the crystal ball and injected her star power into it, muttering obscure spells in her mouth.
Suddenly the crystal ball emitted a dazzling light, and then the light disappeared, and a face that was all too familiar to Zhan Chen appeared in the ball.
"It's Godonis!" Zhan Chen couldn't help but shout.
However, something more terrifying was yet to come. When the scene in the crystal ball turned, he saw Godonis with a sinister smile on his face and a sword piercing his chest.
At this time Aegina's voice rang in his ears: "You will be killed by this person."
"This man's name is Godonis!" Zhan Chen had recovered from the shock and wiped the sweat from his forehead.
"Do you recognize him?" Aegina asked.
"Yes, he has a grudge against me."
"Then I know how to interpret the cards you just drew. The combination of these cards means that one day in the future you will be hunted down by the man named Godonis, and you will undoubtedly die. But in
There is still a glimmer of hope in destiny.”
"What's the turning point? How can my mortal fate be changed?" Zhan Chen
I couldn't help but ask eagerly.
"I'll do some more divination."
Aigina picked up the Tarot cards again, cut and shuffled them, then pulled out a number of cards and arranged and combined them repeatedly, and finally said to Zhan Chen: "Your turning point lies in the ruler of death. You must flee to him to turn the corner."
.”
"What does this mean? Who is the Lord of Death?"
Aegina shook her head and said: "I don't know, and I can't foresee anything anymore. At the critical moment, maybe the mystery will be solved."
Zhan Chen stood up and turned to leave. He felt heavy and kept replaying the horrific scene of his death in his mind, as well as Aegina's unintelligible words.
"Damn it, this divination is too vague. I don't even know when or where I will meet Godonis, let alone how to deal with it."
Zhan Chen's pace was accelerating, and it took a while before his mood calmed down.
"I was so out of control just now. Just a picture scared me so much? Maybe Aegina's prediction is just a trick - no, even if it is a trick, it is too real. I would rather believe it than not.
It has nothing.”
Zhan Chen looked around and thought: "Regardless of other places, at least in this coastal city, I am safe. Since I know that Godonis may come after me, I just need to be as prepared as possible. I can do whatever I can."
There are a lot of preparations, at least I still have time, and I can also improve my cultivation as much as possible. As long as I surpass that old man, I won't have to run away."
However, Zhan Chen also knew in his heart that with his current state, if he wanted to break through to the five-star or six-star star state without relying on adventure, it would definitely not be possible without hundreds of millions of years. Moreover, with his own personality, he would not be able to hide in the world all the time.
In this small city with little development prospects.
While Zhan Chen was thinking, he suddenly heard such a cry, and his heart couldn't help but move.
Spirit talismans are important combat aids that cultivators can use. They are not like magic weapons that can always accompany the monks. Most of them are one-time props. However, spiritual talismans often have various powerful effects and are loved by most monks.
Since I embarked on the path of cultivation, in most cases I have always valued my own cultivation, but rarely relied on such auxiliary props, and many monks also try to avoid using such things.
Because relying too much on the powerful effects of spiritual talismans will weaken one's self-motivation, which is very detrimental to cultivation.
But the current situation is different. Zhan Chen has just received a death notice from Aegina, and is worried that he has no way to deal with Godonis. At this time, it would be a wise move to buy a few talismans as a means of saving his life.
Thinking of this, Zhan Chen walked towards the hawker shop and was immediately welcomed in by the waiter there.
The shopkeeper Zhan Chen smiled and said: "Sir, what kind of talisman do you want?"
Zhan Chen thought for a moment and said, "I'm being hunted by an enemy recently, so are there any life-saving charms sold here?"
"Oh, I hear you say that, is your enemy's cultivation level higher than yours?"
"Yes, he has a six-star star realm cultivation base, and I only have a three-star star realm cultivation base. If the two sides encounter each other, I'm afraid I will be killed in one encounter."
After listening to Zhan Chen's story, the shopkeeper also fell into a brief thought and murmured: "Let me think about it, if this is the case, what magic talisman is the most life-saving."
