Journey to the West: Demon Emperor: Beginning as a Little Toad

Chapter 344: Demon Market
Outside the Pansi courtyard, the sun is shining brightly, like scattered golden silk, warm and soft.

The breeze is blowing gently, carrying the scent of hibiscus flowers, making people feel extremely comfortable.

Facing the somewhat teasing teasing from Pansi Daxian, Xiao Chen did not hide his admiration and openly admitted:

"I have never seen you, Senior Zijiao, wearing even a little makeup. You are so beautiful that I was stunned for a moment."

There's nothing to be embarrassed about.

Just as the Book of Poetry says: "The orioles are singing on the island in the river. The beautiful lady is the ideal match for the gentleman."

Which man in this world doesn't like beautiful women?
What's more, the fairy Pansi at this moment was indeed breathtakingly beautiful.

She put on a little makeup, making her face even more beautiful and charming, as if she was the fairy Zixia who walked out of a painting.

It is exactly: "She is dressed in white and looks like a fairy, with her hair tied up in a cloud-like manner, revealing her beautiful face. Her dark eyebrows are lightly swept by the charm of the ages, and her red lips are slightly filled with a myriad of emotions."

Upon hearing this, Pansi Immortal smiled sweetly.

"Okay, Golden Horn, let's go."

She put on the purple-green sword and spoke softly, her tone full of joy.

Xiao Chen stood up, gently stretched out his hand, made a gesture of invitation, and said:

"Senior Zijiao, please."

The two demons walked side by side out of the courtyard, chatting and laughing all the way, and the atmosphere was quite harmonious.

Arrive at the cave entrance.

The Great Immortal Pansi called out softly:
"Open sesame."

When the sesame stone demon heard the order, it smashed down with a "bang", revealing the passage at the entrance of the cave.

The Great Immortal Pansi and Xiao Chen flew out of the Pansi Cave together.

……

Outside the cave, the Hundred-Eyed Demon Lord was waiting eagerly.

Sudden.

The door of Pansi Cave slowly opened.

The Hundred-Eyed Demon King looked up and saw his master, the Great Immortal Pansi, and Brother Jinjiao walking out of the cave side by side.

The two demons were chatting and laughing, and seemed to be in a good mood.

See this scene.

The Hundred-Eyed Demon Lord was secretly surprised.

He thought:
"Master has been in a bad mood recently. He has been staying at home and not seeing anyone. Why are you willing to come out for a walk today?"

However, the Hundred-Eyed Demon Lord didn't think much about it.

Seeing that Pansi Daxian looked very good today, his worries were slightly alleviated. He was secretly happy and thought:
"It seems that Brother Jinjiao's treatment this time was really effective."

The Hundred-Eyed Demon Lord quickly came forward and asked with concern:

"Master, are you feeling better?"

His tone was full of concern and respect for his master.

Pansi Daxian looked at the Hundred-Eyed Demon Lord, a trace of relief flashed in his eyes, and he nodded and said:
"After Jinjiao treated me several times, I am much better now."

"Bai Mu, you are thoughtful."

Immediately, Pansi Great Immortal instructed the Hundred-Eyed Demon Lord:

"Bai Mu, go and do your thing first."

"No need to wait here."

"The poison of the Qinyuan clan can kill birds and beasts and wither trees when it stings them. It is extremely toxic."

"After reaching the late stage, even a Golden Immortal cannot escape this calamity."

"There are still some toxins left by Demon Saint Qin Yuan."

"This is the poison left by the Demon Saint. It will be of great help to you."

At this point, a hint of imperceptible tenderness and memories flashed in the eyes of Pansi Daxian, as if there was an unknown story behind the poison of the Demon Saint Qin Yuan.

But she quickly retracted her thoughts and continued to speak to the Hundred-Eyed Demon Lord:

"I have already told Sister Xuan Feng about this matter, and I have prepared a dose of 'Qin Yuan Poison' for you."

"Go get some from Sister Xuan Feng, practice it and improve your poison skills."

"Remember, the toxin of this 'Qinyuan Poison' is extremely powerful, you must be careful when using it."

Upon hearing this, the Hundred-Eyed Demon Lord's eyes lit up and he was overjoyed.

He has always liked to refine and study poisons.

And he naturally knew that the poison of the Qinyuan clan was extremely precious, and it was extremely rare to obtain the poison left by the Demon Saint.

This is the poison left behind by the Demon Saint Qin Yuan, just a little bit.

Even if Master Pansi Daxian wanted to obtain it, it was not so easy, but Master still got it for him.

This is enough to show the Master’s good intentions and deep affection for him.

The Hundred-Eyed Demon Lord quickly responded respectfully:
"Yes, thank you Master."

"Disciple must practice hard and gain enlightenment, and live up to Master's expectations."

The voice of the Hundred-Eyed Demon Lord was firm and powerful, revealing his commitment to his master.

The Great Immortal Pansi looked at the Hundred-Eyed Demon King, her eyes full of love and expectation.

In ancient times, a master is like a master, and a master is half a father.

The Hundred-Eyed Demon King was adopted by the Fairy Pansi since he was a child and became her successor.

He was not only her disciple, but in a sense, he was also half her child.

Pansi Daxian witnessed his growth and knew his character, talents and potential very well.

She knew very well that the Hundred-Eyed Demon Lord had extraordinary talent and potential in the art of poison. As long as he was given enough resources and opportunities, he would surely shine in the art of poison.

Therefore, she went to great lengths to get him the poison left behind by Demon Saint Qin Yuan, hoping that he would cherish this opportunity and go one step further.

She chuckled, her tone full of encouragement and trust for the Hundred-Eyed Demon Lord:

"Bai Mu, the master has led you to the door, but the practice is up to you."

"I can't help you much in the future. You have to walk on your own."

“The path of spiritual practice is long and difficult, and perseverance is precious.”

"But Master believes that with your personality, you will definitely achieve something."

Upon hearing this, the Hundred-Eyed Demon Lord's eyes turned slightly red. He was well aware of his master's good intentions and his heart was filled with deep gratitude towards his master.

The Hundred-Eyed Demon Lord said emotionally:
"Master, I am willing to stay at your side forever and listen to your teachings!"

“No matter how long or difficult the road ahead is.”

"I will always remember Master's kindness, practice diligently, and live up to your high expectations!"

Pansi Daxian gently patted the Hundred-Eyed Demon Lord on the shoulder and said in a comforting tone:

"Bai Mu, my teacher's wish has been fulfilled."

“No regrets.”

"You don't have to be sad."

"I am proud to have you as my disciple."

"You have extraordinary talent, and you should practice hard. Strive to make further progress and reach the realm of Daluo Jinxian within a thousand years."

Upon hearing this, the Hundred-Eyed Demon Lord had a firm look on his face, his eyes slightly red, but he tried hard to hold back his tears.

The Hundred-Eyed Demon Lord solemnly promised the Great Immortal Pansi:
"Master, being your disciple is the greatest honor of my life."

"Don't worry, I will practice hard and will not bring shame to the reputation of our Pansi Cave lineage!"

"I will do my best to reach the realm of Daluo Jinxian as soon as possible and make my Pansi Cave famous."

"Ah."

Pansi Daxian nodded and continued:

"You should practice hard until you reach the realm of Daluo Jinxian."

"It will also help Jinjiao."

"With you by his side, I can feel more at ease."

Upon hearing this, the Hundred-Eyed Demon Lord couldn't help but feel confused.

He looked up at his master, his eyes flickering with confusion:
"Ok?"

"Master, what do you mean..."

"What does it mean to lend a helping hand to Jinjiao..."

"What is it like to have me by his side?"

……

A series of questions swirled in his mind, leaving him a little confused.

Although the Hundred-Eyed Demon Lord didn't quite understand what the Immortal Pansi said, he was full of doubts.

But the master's words were like an imperial decree to him, and he answered without hesitation:

"I will obey your orders, Master."

"Whatever Master tells me to do, I will do my best to complete it."

The Great Immortal Pansi looked at the Hundred-Eyed Demon Lord and smiled slightly, with a hint of deep meaning in his eyes.

She opened her red lips slightly and said slowly: "Hundred Eyes."

"It's too early to say some things now."

"When I come back, I'll pick a time and tell you in detail."

Upon hearing this, the Hundred-Eyed Demon Lord nodded and said respectfully:
"Okay, Master."

"Disciple, I understand."

immediately.

The Great Immortal Pansi said to the Hundred-Eyed Demon Lord:
"Golden Horn and I are going to go to the market to relax."

Her tone was relaxed, and she obviously wanted to take this opportunity to relax.

Say it.

Pansi Daxian glanced at Xiao Chen, with a hint of expectation and invitation in her eyes, meaning:

"let's go."

Xiao Chen understood and nodded, meaning:

"Okay, let's go."

The two demons, Pansi Daxian and Xiao Chen, were about to go to the market in Qinyuan Mountains.

Seeing that the master was in a rare good mood, the Hundred-Eyed Demon King wanted to come along and chat with the master to relax.

unexpectedly.

As soon as the Hundred-Eyed Demon Lord took a step forward, Pansi Great Immortal frowned slightly, waved her hand gently, and said to the Hundred-Eyed Demon Lord:

"Bai Mu, you should go back and practice well. You don't have to follow me."

Although Pansi Daxian's words were gentle, they were filled with unquestionable majesty.

The Hundred-Eyed Demon Lord naturally had no choice but to obey. He responded respectfully:

"Okay, Master."

at the same time.

The Hundred-Eyed Demon Lord gave Xiao Chen a look full of gratitude, meaning:

"It's rare that my master is in a good mood. I'd like to trouble Brother Jinjiao to accompany my master for a stroll and make her happy."

Xiao Chen nodded and responded to the Hundred Eyes Demon Lord with a firm look, meaning:

"Brother Baimu, don't worry, I will take good care of your master."

We are all old acquaintances who have known each other for many years, and the tacit understanding and trust between us no longer need to be explained.

There is no need to say much, just a look is enough to convey what is in your heart.

Subsequently.

The Great Immortal Pansi waved her sleeves lightly, and a demonic power surged.

The Great Immortal Pansi and Xiao Chen together created a gust of demonic wind, and the two demons flew lightly into the air, rushing towards the market in the Qinyuan Mountains.

The Qinyuan Mountains stretch for three thousand miles and are home to hundreds of thousands of demons.

Everyone needs to eat, drink, play and have fun, everyone needs to live, and everyone has their own living habits.

Then naturally everyone has the need to exchange what they have, and thus trade zones are born.

Near the Qinyuan Mountains, there are more than a dozen markets of various sizes, which are very bustling.

The monsters from the Qinyuan Mountains trade items and exchange information here.

Although Xiao Chen knew something about the Qinyuan Mountains, he had only been there once before, and that was mainly to heal the injuries of Pansi Daxian and to recuperate himself.

Naturally, he was not as familiar with the Qinyuan Mountains as Pansi Daxian.

There are many places he hasn't been to.

then.

Xiao Chen let Pan Si Daxian lead the way and he followed beside.

Soon, they arrived at the largest market in Qinyuan Mountains.

This market is where the Qinyuan Mountains trade with the surrounding Jiuying Mountains, Chitie Mountains, Shangyang Mountains, Bai Ze Mountains and other forces. It is an important place for monsters from all sides to trade.

Monsters from all over gather here, transactions are frequent, and the place is bustling and lively.

In the market, there are all kinds of rare treasures and special commodities.

This place is equivalent to the "foreign trade area" of the Qinyuan Mountains, and the local monsters named it "Yaoling Market".

The Great Immortal Pansi took Xiao Chen through the market.

The specialty honey wine of the Qinyuan Mountains exudes an enticing aroma. The mellow sweetness seems to evoke the deepest desires in people's hearts, making people want to take a sip.

Over there, at the stalls of Shangyang Mountain, feather clothes of various colors were light and gorgeous, just like colorful clouds. These feather clothes were not only beautiful in appearance, but also comfortable to wear, and were the ideal clothes in the hearts of many monsters.

There are also weapons made by the Iron Tribe using their special "poop material", which are unique... and attract people to stop and take a look.

These weapons are unique and have different shapes, but all of them exude an aura of hardness and sharpness.

Speaking of the Chitie clan, Xiao Chen naturally knew them very well.

This is what the Iron Clan is like:
"It looks like a buffalo, but has huge horns, its fur is jet black, it feeds on iron, and its excrement is as sharp as steel and can be used as a weapon."

What they eat is iron ore, and their excrement is further digested and refined in their stomachs, making it even more pure than the original ore during later processing.

Therefore, cracked iron excrement is the best material for refining equipment.

This unique way of survival and talent make the Chitie clan unique in the demon world, and also make their weapons a highlight in the market.

Although the weapons and armor made from iron poop are very strong and hard to describe, they are very popular in Uttarakuru and are widely used.

Most of the monster tribes in Uttarakuru, such as the Lion Roar Mountain, Yuanxuanjin Mountain and other monsters, use weapons made from the feces of the Iron Clan.

Without him.

The excrement of the Iron-Squeezing Clan is as sharp as steel and can be used to make weapons. It is inexpensive, good quality and strong, so the little demons are generally not picky.

It's easy to use.

However, Xiao Chen was not really interested in these weapons made of iron poop.

Integrate the excrement of the Iron-biting Clan into the body.

You can, but... it's really not necessary.

It's quite disgusting.

In the "Demon Spirit Market", monsters come in an endless stream, and it is bustling and lively.

This place is not only an important place for monsters in the Qinyuan Mountains to trade with those in the surrounding mountains, but also attracts many scattered monsters from the Northern Continent to sell rare treasures and exotic fruits here.

"Come and see my thousand-year-old Polygonum multiflorum, freshly dug out, still covered in mud..."

A burly deer monster was shouting loudly. He was holding a huge Polygonum multiflorum. The roots of the Polygonum multiflorum were still covered with fresh soil and exuded a faint fragrance.

Xiao Chen took a glance and saw that the rhizome of Polygonum multiflorum was thick and black in color, and it exuded a faint fragrance from a distance. It was indeed a rare treasure.

"Tiger blood is aphrodisiac, sold right now!"

Not far away, a shrill voice came again.

Xiao Chen looked in the direction of the sound and saw a skinny mouse monster holding a sharp dagger, with a tiger that had just been hunted placed next to it.

While shouting, the monster skillfully cut the blood from the tiger's body and put it into small bottles, attracting some monsters who were interested in tiger blood to come and buy.

"Yaoting Jade Liquor, one hundred and eighty gold per cup."

At this moment, a melodious voice sounded in my ears.

Xiao Chen turned his head and saw a white-haired fox monster dressed in gorgeous clothes standing in front of a stall, holding a glass of crystal clear wine in his hand. The wine was sparkling with an alluring luster in the sun.

The fox monster smiled and said to the monsters around him:

"This is the 'Demon Court Jade Liquor' from the ancient Demon Court era. Legend has it that only the Demon King and Demon Saint are qualified to enjoy it."

"How is this wine? Let me tell you. One cup will whet your appetite, two cups will protect your kidneys, and after three or four cups, I guarantee you will be full of energy and happy..."

The monsters around listened with great interest and took out gold coins to buy the Yaoting Jade Liquor. For a while, the stall was surrounded by all kinds of monsters.

For a while.

In the Yaoling Market, shouts and hawking sounds were heard one after another, making it very lively.

Xiao Chen looked around, his eyes flashing with thought, and he couldn't help thinking:

“The most important thing when opening a store is choosing a location.”

"If the location is well chosen, business will naturally flourish."

"And this Monster Market has a large flow of monsters and a large trade volume."

"All kinds of monsters come and go, it's really a good place to open a shop."

"This is indeed a good place. It is destined to be with King Jinjiao."

Xiao Chen continued to think:

"Now I have a large army and generals in Northern Juluzhou. I have mountains, territories, demon soldiers and generals, allies... everything."

"It's time to open Silizhai's weapon refining shop in Beijuluzhou."

He could no longer expand his weapon-refining power in Xiniu Hezhou, as that place was basically monopolized by the Lingshan Buddhist sect.

The same is true for his weapon refining forces in Dongsheng Shenzhou. It is difficult for his weapon refining career to make further progress.

And Uttarakuru is undoubtedly a brand new market that can be explored.

There are many monsters here, and the demand for magic weapons is also huge.
