Eternal Life by Daily Divination-Chapter 206 - 175: The Perfected Master Departs, Pei Yingyao’s Favoritism

Chapter 206: Chapter 175: The Perfected Master Departs, Pei Yingyao’s Favoritism

"See anything you like, Fellow Daoist?"

The stall owner asked with a wide smile.

Li Chang’an clasped his hands in a salute and inquired,

"I just find these treasures a bit peculiar. I’ve never seen anything like them before. Could they have been dug up from a Secret Realm?"

"Fellow Daoist, you have a keen eye!"

The stall owner replied with a grin.

These things were exactly what he had found in a cavern within the Thousand Lakes Secret Realm.

The valuable items had already been sold; what remained were just worthless trinkets.

"If you’re interested, Fellow Daoist, they’re five Spirit Stones each. Take your pick. You might just stumble upon a treasure with hidden depths."

"You must be joking, Fellow Daoist. How could finding a treasure be that easy?"

Li Chang’an also wore a broad smile as he exchanged a few words with the stall owner.

A moment later, he seemingly picked a few items at random, tossed down the Spirit Stones, and left.

To avoid any complications, he didn’t continue browsing the Black Market and departed in a hurry.

「Half an hour later.」

Li Chang’an didn’t return to Yellow Crane Immortal City. Instead, he had come to the Black Dragon Mountain Range.

Holding the Token, he extended a wisp of his Divine Sense and touched a small silver dot on its surface.

The next instant, a dark and silent space appeared before his eyes.

’It really is another Array.’

Within this space, hundreds of Array Flags and various other treasures needed for Array Formation were laid out in neat rows.

A Jade Scroll lay beside them.

Li Chang’an picked up the Jade Scroll and probed it with his Divine Sense. A quick glance was all it took for his eyes to light up.

’A Tier Two Top Grade Array, the Mirror Flower Water Moon Formation!’

This Array’s function was similar to the Thundercloud Annihilation Array. It could create an Illusion Realm, serving to both trap and kill enemies, and its quality was extremely high.

According to the description in the Jade Scroll, it was considered a high-quality Array even among the Tier Two Top Grade!

Once set up, even an ordinary Tier Two Array Master holding an Array-Breaking Treasure wouldn’t be guaranteed to breach it!

’What a wonderful treasure!’

A smile spread across Li Chang’an’s face.

He had to admit his luck was truly flourishing.

This time, he hadn’t relied on a Divination for a hint; he had found this treasure purely on his own.

Next, Li Chang’an began to take stock of the Storage Pouches from the Mo Family disciples.

The haul this time was substantial.

Inside these Storage Pouches were more than ten Tier One Peak Puppets alone!

However, they were Mo Family Puppets, after all. There was a chance the Mo Family could sense them.

For this very reason, Li Chang’an had not returned to Yellow Crane Immortal City but had come to the Black Dragon Mountain Range to temporarily use its Demon Qi and the stench of blood to mask his own aura.

He immediately began dismantling them, breaking down one Puppet after another into raw Puppet Materials.

This disassembly process took a full two days!

In the end, Li Chang’an was left with a large pile of safe-to-use Tier One Puppet Materials.

As for the components that the Mo Family might be able to sense, he tossed them all into the depths of the Black Dragon Mountain Range.

After finishing all this, he continued to inventory the remaining treasures in the Storage Pouches.

’There are two Foundation Establishment Spiritual Objects, but unfortunately, each only increases the success rate by five percent.’

Of these two Spiritual Objects, one came from Mo Xi’s Storage Pouch, while the other was from some unnamed, unlucky Mo Family disciple.

Li Chang’an recalled for a moment. Back then, a Mo Family disciple had let out a heart-wrenching, agonized scream upon discovering his Storage Pouch was missing.

This Storage Pouch had belonged to that disciple.

’What a poor fellow.’

Li Chang’an sighed emotionally, an unconscious smile touching the corners of his lips.

Besides these two Foundation Establishment Spiritual Objects, most of the other treasures were unremarkable. However, there were enough of them that their combined value was quite high.

Among them, there were several types of Tier Two Puppet Materials from Mo Xi’s Storage Pouch, all of which were useful to Li Chang’an.

’This haul isn’t too bad.’

’It’s just that I’ve accumulated far too many stolen goods. I’ll have to sell them off slowly.’

In recent days, first, Blood Beast Valley had delivered treasures to him on two separate occasions, and then the Mo Family disciples had done the same.

Li Chang’an himself had also stumbled upon treasures from time to time.

Although he would occasionally change his identity to sell some of them, he still had a considerable backlog.

With this in mind, he immediately hurried toward the Black Market.

「Half an hour later.」

Li Chang’an returned to the Black Market.

He used more than ten single-use human-skin masks to set up over a dozen stalls in the Black Market. After paying the stall fees, he began the life of a treasure-selling vendor.

「For more than a month after that.」

Li Chang’an remained in the Black Market.

He constantly changed his identity, using over a hundred single-use human-skin masks to manage his stalls, and finally sold off all his backlogged treasures.

When it was all over, the Spirit Stones in his Storage Pouch had piled up into a small mountain.

The total exceeded fifty thousand!

’It seems like a lot, but if I convert them to Middle Grade Spirit Stones, it’s only a little over five hundred.’

Li Chang’an sighed to himself.

His Path of Body Refining was a bottomless pit; these Spirit Stones would be thrown into it sooner or later.

「That evening.」

Li Chang’an returned to Yellow Crane Immortal City.

During his absence, everything in the Immortal City was as usual, with no major events occurring.

However, there were rumors that Huang He Master had already left the Immortal City, taking that Tier Three Yellow Crane with him deep into the Black Dragon Mountain Range.

Some said he planned to explore the Thousand Lakes Secret Realm.

Other rumors suggested that Huang He Master wanted to hunt a Tier Three Demon Beast to obtain its Tier Three Demon Core, aiming to bolster his Yellow Crane Spirit Beast’s foundation for a Realm Breakthrough.

’Huang He Master really left?’

Li Chang’an’s eyes narrowed slightly as he glanced toward Yellow Crane Mountain.

For him, Huang He Master’s departure was a good thing.

Without this Golden Core Master around, he could do many things with much more ease.

But... it was rumored that Huang He Master’s first and second disciples also had Core Formation Cultivation.

Li Chang’an still couldn’t act too recklessly.

’The Spirit Vein in Yellow Crane Immortal City is good, but it’s ultimately under the control of the Yellow Crane Mountain Lineage. It isn’t my own territory, so I’m bound to feel constrained in my actions.’

’After my Foundation Establishment Success, I’ll have to find a way to get an ownerless Tier Two Spirit Vein and establish my own Cultivation Dojo.’
