Douluo II: The nanny is killing people indiscriminately!

Chapter 49: Ten Thousand Years Fire Coral
The two wore masks and walked into the Huadu Chamber of Commerce. The hall of the Chamber of Commerce was decorated magnificently, and every detail revealed luxury. The walls were covered with gold, and when the lights shone, the whole hall was magnificent.

Lian Chen lowered his voice: "This really doesn't look like a black market."

Lan Xiu also whispered back: "Huadu Chamber of Commerce has two trading areas. The open one is the ordinary trading area, and the underground trading area is..."

He pointed to the ground beneath his feet.

"To go to the underground trading area, you have to use the secret code."

Lian Chen's fingers twirled a strand of long hair that fell on her chest and asked, "Then do you know the secret code?"

"Watch me." Lan Xiu had come here several times with his family elders and had memorized the secret code.

He walked up to the front desk manager and talked to him for a few words. After they exchanged secret signals, the manager bowed to him and said, "Dear guest, please follow me."

Lan Xiu said to Lian Chen, "Let's go."

With the front desk manager leading the way, they took the soul guide ladder and descended a hundred meters before arriving at the so-called underground trading area.

The lights overhead are dim and neon lights are flashing.

The entire trading area is larger than one would expect. The streets are crowded with people of all kinds, but the stalls are surprisingly neat, uniform, clean and tidy.

Lan Xiu took a piece of lamp crystal from the tray at the entrance with ease. The beautiful blue and white crystal was transparent and pure, emitting a bright light.

Every customer held such a lamp crystal in his hand, using it to check the goods on the stalls.

The goods here are sold in a chaotic manner, and it all depends on luck to come across any good stuff.

Walking past stall after stall, there was nothing that Lan Xiu liked.

Continuing to walk forward, Lian Shen paused as she sensed a strong elemental force of heaven and earth, a thousand times more powerful than that of the Ice Soul Fruit.

Her perception is extraordinary. Having dealt with natural treasures for so long, she is particularly sensitive to the elemental energy of heaven and earth.

Finding that Lian Chen hadn't caught up, Lan Xiu turned back to look for her: "Lian Chen, what's wrong?"

"Come with me, there are good things."

Lian Chen took the lead and walked forward. Lan Xiu followed him curiously and asked, "What good stuff?"

Lian Shen didn’t know what it was exactly: “You’ll know when you get there.”

Following the direction from which the Heaven and Earth Force came, the two walked forward for a long time and found the source of the Heaven and Earth Force at the end of the trading area.

On the stall, there was only a specially made metal box with a pinky-sized coral branch inside. The coral branch was so red that it looked like it was about to bleed, and it emitted a red fluorescence in the dim environment.

People were passing by, but they just stopped to watch. Few people had the intention to buy. When asked about the price, they just walked away.

Lan Xiu didn't know much about it: "What is this?"

"This is called Fire Coral, and it is one of the main ingredients for refining Soul Replenishing Pills."

Soul-replenishing pills are pills used by the Sun-Moon Empire to assist soul masters in their cultivation. This pill has an outstanding effect, doubling the speed of cultivation and helping soul masters with poor martial arts talents to break through their limits. Almost every soul master in the Sun-Moon Empire takes it.

However, it has a fatal side effect: if a soul master with poor martial soul talent takes it, he or she can break through the limit and reach a level of strength that cannot be achieved through ordinary practice. However, if a soul master with good martial soul talent takes it, it will damage his or her talent potential. Therefore, soul masters with good martial soul talent must take the soul-replenishing pill in moderation.

Of course, the rapid increase in soul power leading to a superficial state of mind is a minor side effect.

Fire Coral can be found not only in Soul-Replenishing Pills, but also in the ingredients of all pills that assist in cultivation on the continent.

Lian Chen reached out and picked up the fire coral.

The stall owner, who was also wearing a mask, felt drowsy and couldn't help yawning. Halfway through, he caught sight of Lian Chen's movements, swallowed the remaining half of the yawn, and hurriedly stopped him: "Don't touch it!"

Lian Chen had just picked up the fire coral, but when he heard this, he immediately put it down.

"Sorry, I just want to find out the quality of this fire coral." The stall owner was about to get angry, but when he saw that Lian Chen's hand was intact, his anger instantly went silent.

He was surprised and asked, "You weren't burned? This is a ten-thousand-year-old fire coral."

Fire coral contains fire energy, and its grade and energy temperature increase with the years.

The energy temperature of the ten thousand year old fire coral is at least not lower than the extreme fire.

Lian Chen avoided the question: "I want this Fire Coral, how much is it?"

The stall owner stared at Lian Chen's hand for a long time, but couldn't see any mystery in it. He returned to his sullen look and raised an index finger: "Ten million gold soul coins."

After quoting the price, he closed his eyes and rested.

When Lan Xiu saw Lian Chen really took out his gold card to pay, he stopped him with one hand: "He sold such a small piece of Fire Spirit Coral for 10 million Gold Soul Coins. Isn't this obviously cheating you?"

Lan Xiu did not shy away from the stall owner, and his voice was loud enough for the stall owner to hear. The stall owner did not argue and continued to rest.

"Don't worry, the price is fair." Lian Chen pushed his hand away and put the gold card on the stall: "Ten million gold soul coins, boss, check it."

There is a huge demand for fire corals, and every year hundreds of people enter the sea of fire and die just to pick them.

Fire corals that can grow to ten thousand years old are rare. The fire energy contained in this ten thousand year old fire coral is extremely pure, which shows that it grows in the center of the sea of fire.

To collect is to exchange one's life for it.

This ten thousand year old fire coral will take ten thousand years to succeed and ten thousand years to fail.

The energy of fire is overbearing and powerful. Fire Coral is provided for alchemy or fire-attributed soul masters to practice. If the quality is too high, the result will inevitably be burning and backlash.

The fire coral of the ultimate fire grade would cause a Titled Douluo to lose skin and flesh if he touched it, otherwise it would not be Lian Chen's turn to buy it.

Lian Chen fumbled with the metal box containing the fire coral. Beneath his calm face, his thoughts surged like the tide.

She wanted to develop a medicine that even Titled Douluo would scramble for.

The stall owner suddenly raised his eyelids, stared at Lian Chen for a long while, put away the gold card, and waved his hand without checking it, saying, "You can take it."

He was wrong, and thought the girl would not buy it.

……

At three o'clock in the afternoon, Lian Chen and Lan Xiu left Huadu Chamber of Commerce.

On the way back to the Sun Moon Royal Soul Instructor Academy, Wu Hun became restless for the third time.

Lian Chen's heart moved slightly.

Otherwise, why don’t you go and meet him?
"Lan Xiu, please go back to school first. I have something else to do."

She left an excuse, waited for Lan Xiu to say "OK", and then turned to the other corner.

It was three o'clock in the afternoon, when the city was bustling with people. A silver-haired young man tried his best to go against the current, looking forward from time to time.

The connection between his martial spirits became stronger and stronger, and he became uncontrollably excited.

When Xiao Hongchen's sight passed through the crowd and fell on a girl who was walking straight towards him, he felt inexplicably nervous and stopped unconsciously.

As the distance between them gradually approached, the girl stopped in front of him.

The surroundings were bustling with people and noisy, but he could still clearly hear the other person's gentle voice.

"Hello, my name is Lian Chen."
