Volume 2 Innate Chapter 108: Cultivator Trading Market (Part 2)
Those two congenital guards had long noticed Chu Hao, thinking that this person was mysterious and strange, with an extraordinary aura. Moreover, seeing that the two congenitally cultivated cultivators who were higher than themselves were extremely respectful to him, they didn't dare to be careless. One of them took over the token, looked at it for a moment, and his face changed as he said: "So you're a senior from the Craftsman Sect, please come in."
His accent is not from the Cloud Heaven Empire, it should be a monk from the Maya Empire.
Chu Hao didn't have any strong feelings for his country; he had a sense of belonging, but it was only towards the Wang Manor and the people who loved him.
Seeing this plaque actually allowed him to pass, Chu Hao had some slight regret, if he had known earlier, he would have entered last month. But the innate cultivator beside him was slightly surprised. Jiang Shen Sect, isn't that a sect of craftsmen? When did they have such a powerful golden elixir stage master sitting in charge?
Although he had a hundred thoughts in his mind, he didn't say anything clever at the moment, until the two guards opened the simple illusion formation and followed Chu Hao inside.
As soon as he entered the space inside the formation, his eyes suddenly opened up. Although it was still early in the sky at this moment, there were already not a few people in this cultivator market. It was no different from the scene in the secular world, and the entire market only had two connecting roads that were opened up in the mountains and a large central platform.
Every month's transaction, people come and go here, gathering a lot of loose cultivators from both countries.
And all the way, the innate master followed Chu Hao's side, extremely diligent. He seemed to have seen that Chu Hao was here for the first time and threw away his previous thoughts, starting to introduce him.
Of course, most of the time, Chu Hao had to maintain the dignity of a master, either speaking in a nasal tone or not speaking at all.
Through the innate practitioner's monologue, Chu Hao learned that his name was Xiang Yang, a loose cultivator from the Cloud Heaven Empire. In the empire, there were only three markets where practitioners like him could trade, and one of them was this market near the border.
The three markets are divided into semi-annual, quarterly and monthly ones.
The semi-annual market is a joint venture between the Xiuzhen World Family and the Purple Cloud Sect, which also recruits talented rogue cultivators. As a result, the popularity of this market among rogue cultivators is the highest; The second market is held by Tao Ranju, generally speaking, Tao Ranju is a hidden sect that is not inferior to the Purple Cloud Sect, and even stronger.
It was only this last monthly market that opened, which had the lowest attendance and atmosphere. This popularity is not referring to the number of people coming and going, on the contrary, this market has always been one of the three major markets with the largest number of people and traffic. Popularity usually refers to the quality of traded items and the level of cultivation of participating cultivators, and this market belongs to the lowest level of market.
If it weren't for its location on the border, and the exchange of goods that can't be found in their own countries between the Maya Empire's merchants, I'm afraid even opening once a month would attract many high-end innate practitioners.
He basically ran through the entire Cloud Sky Empire, and he had also been to the other two markets. When he heard that Chu Hao seemed to be completely unaware of this matter, Yang straightforwardly said: "I just thought that Senior was here to preside over the transaction market this time, but I didn't expect Senior to be a elder of the Craftsman Sect."
At first, Chu Hao didn't quite like Xiang Yang's overly familiar and purposeful personality, but after listening to him more, he felt that this person seemed to be a straightforward type, of course, also with a purpose, but for anyone, having no purpose in making friends with strangers is unrealistic.
Chu Hao chuckled and said, "I am an elder of the Craftsman God Sect, isn't that strange?"
Xiangyang shook his head, this sentence made him unsure how to respond. But undoubtedly, after Chu Hao had Xiangyang, an old man who often came to participate in the market transactions by his side, he became familiar with him extremely quickly.
The entire mountain range was shining with a dazzling light, and as time passed, many people entered. Very few of the martial artists who had achieved great perfection were postnatal, most were prenatal cultivators. Of course, martial artists like Xiang Yang who had cultivated to the third layer of Qi Refining were relatively rare, almost all were at the first or second layer, except for a middle-aged woman with dark skin, a fifth-layer Qi Refining cultivator.
Xiang Yang said to Chu Hao, "Senior, the transaction has begun. I'll go take a look and see if there's anything we need. I'll come back and meet up with you later." Xiang Yang saw that Chu Hao had a distracted expression, and immediately knew what he was thinking. Being a cunning person, he quickly spoke up.
Chu Hao nodded and said, "It doesn't matter. Take your time."
When Xiangyang left, Chu Hao looked around. Chen Honghong opened her mouth and said: "That kid should have had a spiritual stone on him." Chu Hao was taken aback and asked back: "He's a pre-heavenly cultivator, having a spiritual stone is normal, isn't it? Are you asking me to go rob him? I'm not that kind of person."
Chen Honghong said irritably: "You listen to me finish speaking, he should have more than one piece of low-grade spirit stone on him."
Chu Hao understood Chen Honghong's meaning at once and said, "You mean that young man is still a murderer and a thief? But he doesn't seem like it to me."
"Nonsense, he's pretending to be a Golden Core cultivator now, of course he won't show anything. If you can make friends with a Golden Core cultivator, it's more valuable than killing a Foundation Establishment cultivator, do you think he'll dig his own grave? And that kid is quite eloquent, you'd better be careful." Chen Honghong's words made Chu Hao secretly vigilant, and he nodded in understanding.
The scene in the secular market was vastly different from that of the cultivator's market, with no one shouting or making a ruckus. Instead, it was very quiet, and many people walked by in groups of three to five, barely giving Chu Hao a second glance.
After all, just now Chu Hao flew in mid-air, and only Xiang Yang saw it.
A Golden Elixir cultivator coming to a place like this to trade things? No one would believe it.
Chu Hao walked around in a circle, feeling somewhat disappointed. The materials here were all ordinary and unremarkable, with no good quality goods to be found. Moreover, they were selling them at an exorbitant price, two spirit stones for something as common as bamboo and grass, it was really not worth it compared to just taking what he wanted by force.
Chu Hao now has only two pieces of spiritual stone at home, and naturally can't afford to buy anything good. He saw that after two people finished their transaction, an empty position came out, and he quickly went to occupy it. He didn't understand the rules and didn't want to care about them, directly taking out all the things in Lie Jie's storage bag and placing them on the table.
Two Flying Sword products, three bottles each containing six Tiger Tendon Pills, one bottle of Condensed Spirit Star Frost Pills, and some miscellaneous techniques as well as a copy of the "Huang Xuan Gong".
After everything was ready, Chu Hao leaned back and waited for the big spender to come and haggle over the price.
Perhaps it was because Chu Hao's location here wasn't bad, and before long, people began to pass by in twos and threes, stopping to ask questions. In response, Chu Hao uniformly chose not to answer, pretending to be profound as he wrote a note on a piece of paper and placed it on the table.
"Price it yourself, take it if it suits you."
These eight words of mystery have attracted a lot of people again.
Liejie's two-product flying sword may not be worth much in Chu Hao's eyes, but for a loose cultivator, it is extremely precious. Moreover, there is also the "Huang Xuan Gong", which is also a good practice method for Qi, and many people have started to think about how to exchange it.
As more and more people gathered around him, but no one made an offer, Chu Hao also became impatient. He finally sat up and said, "What are you looking at? If you want it, take it away; if not, get lost! I'm not providing a show here!"
Everyone who heard Chu Hao's arrogant words was somewhat annoyed. This black-robed guy is too contemptuous of others!
However, even if someone is dissatisfied or annoyed, everyone is a lone cultivator and has no backing, nor do they know what kind of powerful figure Chu Hao actually is. Therefore, he speaks without restraint, but also nobody dares to take the lead in opposing him.
But also because of this, several people left one after another.
"This is the 'Huang Xuan Gong', isn't it the Qi-refining method of the Li family, a renowned clan in the world of cultivation?" A voice came over, and Chu Hao looked up to see a kind-faced young woman. She had an ordinary appearance, but her figure was extremely fiery, and beside her stood a middle-aged man. One of them was at the first level of Qi-refining, and the other was at the second level, probably neither of them had exceptional talent, or perhaps they had started cultivating too late."
And these two people should be each other's Dao companions, hearing their questions, Chu Hao's heart skipped a beat. There are actually people here who can recognize the origin of this Qi cultivation method, the Xiu Zhen world family Li family, could it be that they are from Lijie's family?
Unexpectedly having such a reputation.
Although Chu Hao had a lot of thoughts in his mind, on the surface he was calm and didn't say a word, still with an air of ignoring everyone, lightly tapping the eight characters on the table with his hand.
The young woman's face showed a hesitant expression, then she glanced at the big man and continued to say to Chu Hao: "Fellow Taoist, we use two pieces of low-grade spirit stone to exchange for this 'Huang Xuan Gong', do you think it's okay?"
Chu Hao's mind stirred, and he saw that these two people could take out two pieces of low-grade spirit stones at once. It seemed that they were not inferior scattered cultivators either. He didn't answer for a moment, remaining silent before saying, "This 'Huang Xuan Gong' is the original, not a copy."
One sentence made everyone's face change color.
The gap between the fake and the original is not comparable. If this "Huang Xuan Gong" is the original, then there should be notes from cultivators who have practiced this method, which would make it easier to practice and break through to the next level earlier. Although this method is not as profound and rare as those of the major Daoist sects, it is still a top-notch one.
Suddenly, someone else called out: "I have three pieces of low-grade spirit stone here, willing to exchange with fellow Taoist!"

Three more episodes are done, and tomorrow I'll be off the Wind Cloud Chart. Maybe I won't even make it onto the Potential Chart... feeling a little bit disappointed.
