In the world of cultivation, strength reigns supreme.

The strict hierarchical system meant that those below them were extremely respectful to those above them, never daring to overstep their bounds in the slightest.

In this chaotic and dangerous black market, this lowly ant with only two levels of Qi cultivation dared to humiliate me like this!

The vendor's eyes seemed to spit fire as he stared intently at Xu Mo.

He had already made his decision to wait until Xu Mo sold the magic before killing him.

To directly obtain more spirit stones, thus avoiding the trouble of setting up a stall to sell them again.

So the vendors calmed down and waited patiently for their opportunity.

Xu Mo remained calm and composed, seemingly oblivious to the angry expression on the face of the noodle vendor.

The vendors were completely ignored.

"Ha, this hothead is pretty arrogant..."

The vendor snorted inwardly and ignored Xu Mo.

soon.

Then a cultivator stepped forward and came to Xu Mo's stall, wanting to buy "Kun Yuan Zai Wu Jue".

"This earth-based defensive spell is quite good, but the price... could you lower it a bit?"

The cultivator took the "Kun Yuan Zai Wu Jue" in his hand and asked a question.

Xu Mo's attitude was unusually firm, and his tone was very resolute:

"Eighty low-grade spirit stones, not a single one less."

Then, he suddenly raised his hand and pointed to the vendors across the street who had not yet packed up their stalls.

They deliberately amplified their voices, as if afraid the vendors wouldn't hear them:

"I believe you have also felt it; this technique is superior among those of the same grade."

Eighty spirit stones is a very reasonable price; the vendor across the street was selling it for the same price before.

Upon hearing this, the vendor's chest heaved violently, clearly indicating that he was quite angry.

Even the most kind-hearted vendor couldn't help but curse inwardly.

"If you really want it..."

  

Xu Mo lowered his arm, then added, subtly lowering the price to prevent the cultivator from backing out:

"Give me seventy-five spirit stones and you can take it."

Seeing that Xu Mo had relented, the cultivator stopped haggling and immediately took out seventy-five low-grade spirit stones.

"Okay, I'll take it."

After the transaction was completed and Manager Sun's "Kun Yuan Zai Wu Jue" was successfully sold, Xu Mo did not linger.

After collecting the spirit stones and his stall, he calmly and slowly walked out of the black market.

At the same time, with a barely perceptible movement, a lightness talisman was quietly grasped in his palm.

"Although I had previously used my divine sense to investigate, what if the vendor's accomplice is hiding in some corner?"

We must be prepared; it's always good to be cautious.

Although Xu Mo's cultivation level was higher than that of the street vendor, he also understood the principle that even a lion uses its full strength to hunt a rabbit.

Therefore.

He was not careless at all, and before even leaving the black market, he released his divine sense.

They examined it meticulously.

Sure enough, he caught up.

The vendor watched Xu Mo walk a short distance before following closely behind.

His fierce face was filled with greed.

It seemed they had Xu Mo completely under their control.

"It seems... this vendor really doesn't have any accomplices, which makes things much easier."

After repeatedly checking with his divine sense, Xu Mo confirmed that the vendor was a single person.

He hadn't gone far from the black market when he sensed the vendors quickening their pace and rushing towards him.

"Hmph, a mere Qi Refining Level 3 cultivator, utterly ungrateful... Are you here to die?"

Xu Mo stopped pretending and unleashed his powerful and terrifying fourfold spiritual pressure.

What's going on? Isn't this kid at the second level of Qi Refining?

The vendor felt the terrifying spiritual pressure from the mid-stage Qi Refining expert, and immediately broke out in a cold sweat, his hair standing on end.

A chilling sensation suddenly exploded from the soles of my feet and shot straight to the top of my head.

Damn it, that high-level cultivator at the fourth level of Qi Refining actually pretended to be weak and tricked me, a low-level cultivator!

There is a huge difference in strength between the third and fourth levels of Qi Refining.

therefore.

The vendors were filled with disbelief, but had no choice but to give in.

"Senior, I was blind to your greatness, please..."

Pfft!

Before the vendor could finish speaking, Xu Mo brought two fingers together, and a golden streak of light shot out like lightning.

The next moment, the vendor's entire head exploded, turning into a bloody mist.

One blow kills.

This is the absolute crushing of Qi Refining Level 4 by Qi Refining Level 3.

"Noisy."

Xu Mo muttered indifferently as he walked over and pocketed the vendor's storage bag.

"It's best not to stay here any longer; we should head back as soon as possible."

Then, he left without looking back.

……

……

It was late at night.

It would take several hours to get to the Luo family's territory.

Why not spend another night in the shantytown?

After committing murder and robbery, Xu Mo kept his divine sense extended to prevent being robbed on the road without his knowledge.

Fortunately.

Nothing unexpected happened during the journey, and they returned safely to their home in the shantytown.

Xu Mo sat on the edge of the bed, broke open the vendor's storage bag, and began to tally up his day's earnings.

"Fifty low-grade spirit stones, plus the sixty I just gave you..."

"At the third level of Qi Refining, after deducting the costs of cultivation and renting a celestial abode, it's impossible to save up fifty spirit stones."

Xu Mo transferred the spirit stones into his storage bag and said confidently:

"As expected, this vendor is a thief."

In the storage bag, besides spirit stones, there were also several pills and a token.

"Huh, what is this?"

Xu Mo let out a soft "hmm," somewhat puzzled.

He took the item out and realized it was an identity token.

The token has words engraved on both sides.

The front is engraved with the three large characters "百艺盟".

On the other hand, there is [Zhou Wei].

"The Hundred Arts Alliance? I do know about that."

It was established by Liuyun Market to facilitate the exchange of knowledge among cultivators studying various skills.

When Xu Mo flipped the token over and saw the words "Zhou Wei," alarm bells went off instantly, and a fine layer of cold sweat appeared on his forehead.

"Zhou Wei is very likely a member of the Liuyun Zhou family."

Immediately, Xu Mo's heart skipped a beat, and he had a vague guess.

"Moreover, joining the Hundred Arts Alliance means that... he has made achievements in a certain skill among the Hundred Arts of Immortal Cultivation."

"Level...at least mid-tier first rank."

"But it ended up in the hands of a vendor at the third level of Qi Refining."

Xu Mo's breathing became rapid, and a bead of cold sweat rolled down his cheek.

He took out the pills from his storage bag again and examined them carefully. He found that all the pills were of mid-grade first rank.

"Given this situation, there's only one possibility."

"This Zhou Wei has the cultivation level of the early stage of Qi Refining, but his alchemy skills have reached the middle grade of the first rank..."

"He's a first-rate alchemy genius!"

In an instant.

For no apparent reason, Xu Mo felt that the identity token in his hand was inexplicably burning hot.

"The Zhou family is different from the Luo family of beast taming; they do not have skills passed down through generations."

Therefore, the Zhou family must have highly valued their clan's artistic geniuses.

He temporarily suppressed his inner fear and calmly analyzed the situation.

"If this identity token is seen by someone, it might bring trouble upon them."

No one must see this!

Xu Mo put the identity token back into his storage bag and secretly made up his mind.

"To be on the safe side, before we have enough strength, we should hide in the Luo family."

I refuse to believe that the Zhou family would dare to directly attack the Luo family.

Think about this.

Xu Mo felt much more at ease and prepared to head straight to the Luo family's territory as soon as it was light.

Let's play it safe for a while first.
