Chapter 80 Trading

Everyone's eyes were fixed on the figure at the very front.

The figure was shrouded in black mist, its movements unpredictable and awe-inspiring.

Everyone recognized him from his bird-like face.

Three-legged corpse crow.

The most esteemed mythical creature since the Advent.

Even Bingfeng, who was far away in Liaocheng, knew his name.

I never expected to see him here.

The crowd stared at the three-legged corpse crow with strange looks, feeling a mixture of curiosity, fear, and shock.

"So handsome!" Bingfeng, with her single ponytail, suddenly interrupted everyone's thoughts.

The girl with pigtails paused for a moment, then said, "Indeed."

Chi Pao let out a cold laugh.

"Bird, it's you. What do you want with us?"

'

Du Wang recognized Gui Che at a glance as the guy who attacked him in Yu Town.

However, since the demon-summoning banners prevent mutual harm, now is not the time for a purge.

but----

The current situation is that I know the other party's identity, but the other party does not know my identity.

If we can get some clues from them, we might have a chance to catch them off guard.

After thinking for a moment, he said, "It is not me, but this world that has chosen you."

""

Zheng asked, "So where exactly is this?"

Du Wang explained, "This place is the inner training ground of the magic weapon, the Demon-Summoning Banner."

After hearing his answer, the mythical hosts exchanged glances.

The girl with the single ponytail exclaimed in surprise, "A magic weapon! Is it one of those from TV dramas?"

""

She counted on her fingers: "The Vajra Bracelet, the Purple Gold Gourd, the Ruyi Jingu Bang (Golden Cudgel) — and the Banana Leaf Fan and stuff —"

The girl with twin ponytails shook her head: "The Journey to the West you're talking about is a novel, not an ancient book."

The girl with the single ponytail retorted defiantly, "What if it's true!"

With her twin ponytails and arms crossed, she said, "You childish brat."

""

With her hair in a single ponytail, hands on hips, and finger outstretched, she said, "Who are you talking about!"

'

Seeing that the two were about to start arguing again, Zouwu interrupted, saying, "Anything is possible. After all, immortals have been proven to exist, so the magical weapons and divine artifacts passed down in ancient books and stories might also be real."

Chi Pao sneered, "If that's the case, then even if we advance to the 4th or 5th tier, it won't make any difference. After all, they have magic weapons and can kill us directly. Just like now, they dragged us in without giving us any chance to resist."

Upon hearing his words, the other mythical hosts all looked at the black-robed, bird-faced man sitting atop the most magnificent auspicious cloud.

Du Wang knew they were still wary of him.

He also harbored the same wariness, after all, the Demon-Summoning Banner was not in his hands; he only had certain authority over it.

Among these seven people is the one behind the scenes.

The twins didn't seem to be that cunning.

Zhu Jian is only a twin-stage cultivator and doesn't seem like someone who could obtain a magic weapon.

Zheng, Zouwu, Guiche, and Chenghuang are the four most likely candidates.

Especially the Ghost Chariot, backed by the Chess Organization, might even be in their hands when it comes to summoning demons.

He did not intend to reveal the truth until he understood the intentions of those behind the scenes.

Otherwise, if we alert them, they might break up this wonderful gathering.

Although he had only been there a short time, Du Wang had already experienced the wonders of this space.

The three-legged corpse crow and the eye-bag demon share the same body and senses with him, just like a person with three heads and six arms.

He could sense that his perception of both was becoming more and more precise, giving him a sense of complete control.

He believes that if he can adapt to this state in advance, his strength will improve faster than Professor Zhuang predicted.

So in order to stay longer, he had to find a topic that everyone was interested in.

At this moment, Cheng Huang spoke up: "If Wu Zhen really had murderous intent, so many people wouldn't have come in."

Zhujian nodded: "I think so too."

"Hmph." Chi Pao was somewhat displeased to see someone speaking up for Wu.

Du Wang spoke up: "Regardless of the circumstances, it is fate that we are all gathered here. We don't usually have such a safe space to communicate as we do."

Zheng nodded: "That's true. I'm surrounded by my own spirits, and I can't really connect with them."

""

When his spirit host was mentioned, he was very arrogant and seemed to look down on him.

Du Wang laughed and said, "So why don't we share our knowledge here? Each of us will say a question that's puzzling us, and the others present will answer it. If someone gets an answer, we'll reward them with a piece of mythological knowledge. How about that?"

Everyone was surprised and thoughtful upon hearing his suggestion.

"That's a good idea," Zouwu was the first to agree. "I think with your abilities, you've all been in the top ten and have acquired some hidden mythological knowledge."

"Outside the world, this knowledge is difficult to trade due to a lack of trust. But here, we can speak freely, as we cannot harm each other."

""

Du Wang nodded secretly; that was exactly what he thought.

After all, as the host of my own spirit while I'm away, I can't keep asking the professor for information about the mythical host.

Zhujian asked, "What if other people can't answer?"

Du Wang explained, "Then let's change the question, or end the deal."

With her twin ponytails sealed, she asked, "What if someone only asks questions without sharing any mythological knowledge?"

Cheng Huang looked up at Du Wang and said, "Then let's exclude him from the next gathering—the banner master should be able to do that, right?"

Du Wang nodded slightly: "No problem."

The mythical hosts looked at each other, and then fell silent.

Even Chi Pao didn't continue to refute.

His eyes flickered as he pondered how much benefit this would bring him.

Du Wang suddenly laughed and said, "Since there is no objection, who would like to ask the first question?"

'

After a moment of silence, Zhujian suddenly reached out and said, "I'll do it."

His gaze swept over the faces of the others, and he said frankly, "I am currently at the Twin Rank, and I should be the weakest person here, so my question should not be difficult for everyone."

"And the reward I can offer is a piece of mythological knowledge about the relic, involving level 2 or higher."

Upon hearing this, the people who were initially uninterested in answering the question suddenly became interested.

Du Wang noticed the subtle change in the atmosphere and became somewhat curious about the mythological knowledge that Zhujian had acquired.

Seeing that Zhu Jian's gaze was focused on him, he asked, "My question is, how can mythical creatures increase their compatibility?"

'

Upon hearing the question, several people who were initially confident in their ability to answer it frowned.

In fact, this is a difficult question, and there is still no universally accepted conclusion.

Each of the mythical hosts is progressing by figuring things out on their own.

If those present were all mythical hosts of level 3 or above, they might have some experience with this problem.

However, most of the mythical hosts present are currently at level 2 and are in the process of getting to know the mythical creatures, so they don't really have much insight into this issue.

Zhu Jian was initially hopeful, but after waiting for a while and seeing that no one wanted to answer, he couldn't help but feel a little uneasy.

He had to add, "It doesn't have to be a quick and effective method, as long as it's the right path."

Du Wang secretly shook his head, sensing that Zhu Jian was somewhat anxious.

The next second, Cheng Huang said, "I have a simple method that is somewhat effective, but you need to persevere with it."

Zhu Jian was overjoyed: "No problem."

Cheng Huang nodded and looked at Du Wang: "Flag Master, we have reached an agreement. How will the transaction proceed?"
