In a Martial World High, There’s a Mystical Great World – Chapter 86

Chapter 86: New Map, More Resources

If Shen Xing had to describe it in one sentence, it would be that this was a large city that could not have been built with the technological level of the 10th century.

But it did indeed show the brilliance of another civilization, a civilization that belonged entirely to the Martial Path, to the Transcendent.

Shen Xing admired it from high in the sky for a while, then descended. By the time he appeared at the city gate, he was already a white-clothed, elegant, and graceful young master.

Obviously, even in such a big city, his appearance was still eye-catching enough.

Not to mention the powerful aura he exuded from cultivating the Dragon Elephant Body, which made the gate guards not dare to charge him the entrance fee and respectfully welcomed him in.

And inside the city, two Marrow Tempering Stage experts from the Gong Family, who had already received the message, quickly came up to welcome him.

“Young Master.”

These two Marrow Tempering Stage experts, one named Gong Changsong and the other named Gong Changgang, completely placed themselves in the position of servants at this moment, all bowing and bending their waists.

These days, they could increasingly feel the unfathomable depth of this Young Master Shen.

Not only in strength but also in methods.

Not long ago, Pang Zhan, who was left in Clearwater City, contacted them through that magical treasure, saying that Young Master Shen had set off and asked them to wait at the city gate. And he really arrived in such a short time.

It took them four full days to get here!

Even if he flew, it wouldn’t be this fast.

However, the few of them were almost used to it and numb to it. In short, awe was the right attitude.

“Where can I buy the best pills?” Shen Xing walked forward unhurriedly, and his first question was about pills.

He had already taken the last First-Grade Bone Tempering Pill today.

At this moment, it was still continuously tempering his bones.

Having experienced this speed, he naturally didn’t want to go back to the previous efficiency.

“Replying to Young Master, that would of course be the Spring Rain Trading Company,” Gong Changsong said. “This trading company is one of the best in the entire Wu Region. It has branches in every major city, has its own alchemists, and even puts up Second-Grade pills for auction from time to time.”

Speaking of this trading company, even the great expert at the Marrow Tempering Stage couldn’t help but show a look of longing.

Although they were at the top level in Clearwater City and had their own families, compared with such a big power, they were really nothing.

Their family heirlooms were just things that could be bought and sold at will on the counter.

“Then let’s go there first,” Shen Xing said.

The “Great Detective” software had already given him a hint that among the gazes from all directions, some were obviously keeping an eye on him.

Shen Xing knew that so many days had passed since the events in Clearwater City, even in such a city, he couldn’t be an unknown person. The deterrent power of an Innate Realm expert naturally attracted attention.

Not to mention, the Pang Family was one of the eight major families here, and Pang Yue was still in his hands.

But no matter what, he had to get the pills first.

And just as Shen Xing was walking towards the Spring Rain Trading Company, just as he thought, the news of his arrival was spreading rapidly throughout Dragon Flood City.

Most ordinary people and ordinary martial artists might not know Shen Xing at all.

But for forces at a certain level, it was impossible not to pay attention.

He had an Innate-level flying puppet, multiple Spiritual Weapons, a mysterious background, outstanding talent, and at the Bone Tempering Stage, he could easily kill more than ten Marrow Tempering Stage experts. He was suspected to be from the Outer Region.

This was the impression Shen Xing now left on this world.

Each of these things alone was enough to attract attention, let alone all of them together.

However, Shen Xing had never thought of keeping a low profile.

The higher the profile, the better.

The higher the profile, the more confidence he showed, and the fewer troubles he would have.

He swaggered to the front of a tall building, which was seven stories high and had an area comparable to a large supermarket in his previous life. Just this building alone, its scale and decoration far exceeded the Red Fragrance House in Clearwater City. The constant flow of people inside gave Shen Xing the illusion of having come to a modern shopping mall.

And just as he arrived at the door, he saw a middle-aged man with a smiling face and a large build walking over quickly with a smile. Judging from his aura, he at least had the cultivation of the Marrow Tempering Stage.

“This is truly an honored guest. I am the deputy manager of the Spring Rain Trading Company in Dragon Flood City. Young Master Shen can call me Miao Li. Please come upstairs. Only the treasures upstairs are worthy of Young Master Shen’s status.”

Deputy manager?

It took him less than twenty minutes to walk here from the city gate. Not only did they know his identity, but they even came to greet him personally.

They really didn’t hide their surveillance at all.

Shen Xing smiled, stepped inside, and said casually, “What treasures can there be in such a place? I’m just here to buy some daily necessities.”

“Young Master Shen is well-informed. The treasures in our small place are naturally not worth your attention,” Miao Li still had a big smile on his face. “But we also have many specialties here, such as treasures dug up from those ruins. You won’t see them anywhere else.”

“Oh?” Shen Xing showed a slight interest.

Dragon Flood City had not only dug up flood dragon bones but also many things from a long time ago. It was suspected that there had been a great battle to kill a flood dragon here.

Although most of them had been eroded by time, disappeared, or were useless, some useful things could still be excavated from time to time.

For example, Divine Intent Inheritances painted on special scrolls.

Three of the eight major families even made their fortunes by digging up powerful Divine Intent Inheritances.

◈◈◈

Therefore, when Miao Li mentioned this, it was naturally impossible for Shen Xing to say that he was not interested.

Just Pang Yue alone had the “Nine Shadows Body Movement Technique,” a top-grade martial arts intent. There must be even better ones in Dragon Flood City.

Shen Xing walked all the way to the fifth floor, listening to Miao Li’s constant introduction, and had a general understanding of this place.

The Spring Rain Trading Company not only sold things for martial artists.

It also sold daily necessities for ordinary people, including clothing, food, and medicine. It already had some traces of a department store. From the third floor up, it mainly sold things needed by martial artists, including various pills, weapons, spiritual herbs, minerals, and even Divine Intent Inheritances.

In addition to the Spring Rain Trading Company’s own sales, other martial artists were also allowed to set up stalls here, as long as they paid a fee.

This increased income and also increased popularity.

It had to be said that even without the development of science and industry, human wisdom was still universal.

And on the fifth floor, some high-end treasures began to appear.

The First-Grade Bone Tempering Pills that Shen Xing needed could be bought here.

“The fifth floor is usually only open to a very few distinguished guests. Only those with a token can enter. Of course, Young Master Shen naturally has this qualification.” When they got here, Miao Li took out an exquisite jade token with a big smile on his face. It was actually inlaid with gold. With the purchasing power of gold in this world, just this jade token alone was worth a lot.

However, after Shen Xing took it, he casually threw it to Gong Changsong behind him.

“From now on, you will run errands for me for such daily necessities.”

“Yes.” Gong Changsong was thrilled.

He wouldn’t have been able to come to such a place on his own.

It wasn’t that his Marrow Tempering Stage strength wasn’t enough, but his status wasn’t enough.

At this time, someone had already brought a jade box containing pills. Miao Li presented it with both hands.

“Young Master Shen, please take a look. Is this the kind of pill you need?”

Shen Xing opened it and saw that it was indeed the First-Grade Bone Tempering Pills he needed.

There were ten of them, neatly arranged inside.

New map, more resources indeed. The Pill Pavilion in Clearwater City had to make a special request to headquarters to get just five, but here, they just casually brought out ten, and they seemed to be of even better quality, obviously newly refined not long ago, and the medicinal properties were better preserved.

“Not bad,” Shen Xing nodded and let Gong Changsong take it. “Also, bring me the best pills for the Marrow Tempering Stage, so I don’t have to make another trip in a few days.”

Miao Li hesitated slightly and said, “Then Young Master Shen has come at the right time. Our store has another batch of high-grade First-Grade Marrow Transformation Pills, which are the best pills to help with Marrow Tempering Stage transformation, but…”

Shen Xing raised his eyebrows slightly.

He saw something different on Miao Li’s face.

“But, these pills have already been reserved and allocated,” a voice suddenly came from not far away.

Several young men who looked no older than twenty or thirty years old were striding over.

The leader was dressed in exquisite clothes and had a handsome appearance, especially his extraordinary bearing. At first glance, one could tell that he was a great expert at the Marrow Tempering Stage, and not a beginner.

With such strength at this age, he naturally gave off a feeling of high spirits.

However, he sized up Shen Xing and couldn’t help but be a little surprised.

Just in terms of temperament, Shen Xing did indeed feel completely different from all the descendants of great families he had seen before.

More composed, more profound.

“You’re the one from Clearwater City?” The young man said directly, “I am Pang Qingshan, the eldest grandson of the Pang Family’s direct line. Is my third uncle in your hands?”

“So it’s someone from the Pang Family,” Shen Xing smiled slightly. “But is a bandit who was expelled and robs everywhere really that important?”

Although he had long guessed that the Pang Family would come looking for him, this was still a bit faster than he expected.

No, maybe it was just this person in front of him acting on his own.

Anyone who had carefully studied his information wouldn’t be so rash.

The alloy long saber that had killed more than ten Marrow Tempering Stage experts was still hanging at his waist.

“No matter what, he is still my third uncle,” Pang Qingshan narrowed his eyes. “If you want Marrow Transformation Pills, I happen to have three shares on hand. Return my third uncle, and these three shares are yours.”

He did indeed come on his own after hearing the news.

On the one hand, he wanted to see the level of this rumored “Outer Region Prodigy.”

On the other hand, if he could rescue his third uncle, it would be greatly beneficial to his status and reputation in the family.

He believed that offering three shares of Marrow Transformation Pills was already very sincere.
