The Devil's Tribulation

At the East City Inn, Pan Chengfeng left Li Qianer's room, thinking about the location of Qingxu Town, and said to himself: "I heard from that arrogant king that Qingxu Town is 500 miles west of the city. Well, I will leave the city from the east gate first, and then go to the west gate. After all, it is broad daylight, and running so fast in the city is likely to cause unnecessary trouble." After thinking it over, Pan Chengfeng left the inn, went all the way out of the east city gate, and then immediately ran, controlling the speed at 300 kilometers. It takes two days for a mortal to go around the city, but Pan Chengfeng only ran from east to west in an hour.

After seeing the west gate, Pan Chengfeng did not stop and continued to move westward. After about an hour, Pan Chengfeng still did not see the town or village, and thought to himself: "Did I run too far?" Then he ran a distance in the east, south, west and north, but still did not see the town. He was getting anxious, thinking that the arrogant king was deceiving him. Suddenly, he felt a fluctuation of spiritual power. Looking up, he saw three sword lights coming from far to near, and coming to where Pan Chengfeng was, and soon they fell in front of Pan Chengfeng.

The leading man in green, after seeing Pan Chengfeng, bowed and said, "Daoyou are also coming to Qingxu Town?" Pan Chengfeng was delighted and said, "Yes, you are also going to Qingxu Town?" The man in green said, "We are the children of the Han family. This time we are ordered to go to Qingxu Town to purchase some items." Pan Chengfeng had already suspected that these people were from the Han family. After all, they were dressed exactly like the men of the Han family. Pan Chengfeng said, "Oh, I still have to wait for a few friends. Daoyou will go first." The man in green nodded and said, "Then we will go in first, junior brothers and sisters, let's go." After that, he took two boys and girls, about 10 or years old, to a -meter-high rock in the open space.

After the few people left Pan Chengfeng, the girl asked in a voice transmission: "Brother, why are you so polite to a young cultivator?" The brother smiled and said, "Sister, when you go out, the most important thing is to be careful. Although this person seems to be only at the fourth level of Qi training, what do you think of his attitude when he talked to me? Is he not at all embarrassed, but naturally exudes a sense of confidence?" The brother and sister were both thinking back, and the brother spoke first: "Yes! Usually in the clan, those Qi training disciples see us respectful, and the man just now didn't seem to be afraid of us. And brother is about to break through the golden elixir, and the fluctuation of mana is particularly obvious. It is impossible for that person not to feel the strength of brother, but it is so natural. It is indeed a bit abnormal." The brother smiled and said, "That's right. In order to successfully break through the golden elixir, I have suppressed my cultivation for three years. In the past two months, I have been a little bit unable to suppress it. Especially in the past few days, I think I may break through in two or three days, so the fluctuation of mana on my body is particularly obvious. That person not only talked and laughed freely in front of me, but even looked at me as a junior. Don't you think it's strange?"

The young girl interrupted hurriedly, "Yes, yes. Brother, when you said that, I just remembered that the man's attitude just now was indeed not right." The brother scratched the sister's nose and said, "Don't be a hindsighter. Remember to go out in the future and don't judge by realm. There are too many talented people in the world of cultivation, and there are innumerable secret techniques to hide their cultivation. For example, the man just now may very well be a Nascent Soul cultivator, or even a Divine Transformation master. If we accidentally offend him, it would be a small matter to bring about our own death. But if we bring a great enemy to our family, we would be sorry to our ancestors." Seeing that the two young boys were frightened , the elder brother smiled and said, "Don't be too scared. Remember, I won't offend others unless they offend me. You two are only eighteen years old, and you have already established the fifth level of foundation. You are geniuses in the clan. I will go into seclusion when I go back this time. When I come out, I hope you can all make further progress." The younger brother smiled and said, "When we come out, we will change our names to uncle-master!" The elder brother knocked the young man on the head and said with a smile, "You two will always be my good younger brothers and sisters. You are the older brother, so you should be more sensible than your younger sister." The girl pouted and said, "He is only a quarter of an hour older than me!" The young man said proudly, "It's just one second. I'm still a brother, hahaha."

Several people walked to the big rock while chatting and laughing. The man in green pressed a palm print on the rock with one hand, and then a virtual door appeared on the surface of the rock. Pan Chengfeng did not turn around, but his spiritual consciousness was open all the time. After seeing the young man's operation, he thought to himself: "So that's how it is. That's right. Otherwise, if we put the town in a place where mortals can go, wouldn't everyone be able to enter?" After seeing that several people had entered, two or three breaths later, the white virtual door also disappeared. Pan Chengfeng walked to the big rock and observed the rock. Soon he found the palm print. Pan Chengfeng stretched out his hand and pressed the palm print with five fingers: "No reaction? Didn't that kid have the same reaction? Could it be that our palms are different? That's impossible. If it depends on the size of the palm, then many people can't enter? Could it be..." Pan Chengfeng seemed to have thought of it, and directly injected the true energy into the palm print through his palm. Sure enough, the virtual door appeared on the surface of the rock. Pan Chengfeng smiled: "So that's how it is."

After passing through the virtual gate, Pan Chengfeng suddenly saw a small town in front of him. It was not big and there were not many people, but basically all the people on the street were monks. It was the first time that Pan Chengfeng saw so many monks, coming and going. There were at least thousands of monks in the town. Pan Chengfeng thought to himself: "This is where the monks trade! I finally found it, let's just take a look around first." Pan Chengfeng walked casually on the street, looking left and right, all of which were things that monks needed. They were mainly spiritual tools, elixirs, talismans and spiritual herbs. There were also street vendors, and the things they sold were complicated, including incomplete skills, incomplete spiritual tools, unknown books, etc.

Pan Chengfeng walked into a 5-story attic and saw the three characters "Wanbao Pavilion" written on the plaque. He thought to himself, "What a big mouth." However, Pan Chengfeng couldn't control what name people chose. Pan Chengfeng had already visited most of the town. This was the largest building in the town, so Pan Chengfeng planned to go in and take a look. As soon as he entered the door, it looked bigger than the outside, and the decoration was really... To describe it in an idiom, it was "magnificent". There were all kinds of things on the first floor. It can be said that there was everything, but they all seemed ordinary. There were also quite a few people, and dozens of monks were walking back and forth in front of the U-shaped counter.

Pan Chengfeng was just about to go up to the second floor to take a look when a sexy beauty came towards him. She smiled at Pan Chengfeng and said, "Your Excellency, do you think nothing of the things on the first floor?" Pan Chengfeng looked at the beauty and thought to himself, "Even a waiter is so pretty. It's easy to imagine that this Wanbao Pavilion is really powerful." Seeing the beauty greet him, Pan Chengfeng naturally couldn't be rude. He cupped his hands and said, "I'm new here and want to take a look first. But since you're with me, I'll listen to your advice first." The beauty smiled and said, "Your Excellency is really good at talking. Just call me Hong Yan. I'm just a clerk at Wanbao Pavilion. Do you want to buy something? Or sell something?" Pan Chengfeng thought for a while and said, "Buy first and then sell." Hong Yan's eyes lit up. Because the commission for buying things is higher than that for selling things.

Hong Yan became even more enthusiastic. She took Pan Chengfeng's arm, her breasts faintly touching Pan Chengfeng's arm, and said with a sweet smile: "What do you want to buy? I'll take you to have a look." The other shop assistants saw Hong Yan greet the customers and sneered: "Look at that bitch! She's flirting again. She's just a kid at the fourth level of Qi training. If you don't know, you'd think she got a big order!!" Just after she finished speaking, a few more customers came in. The shop assistant who said the harsh words immediately greeted them with a smile. Before he arrived, his voice came first: "Isn't this the eldest son of the Bai family? Why don't you say hello to me when you come?" As she said that, she naturally took the eldest son of the Bai family's wrist. Mr. Bai smiled slightly and said: "I passed by here and came to take a look."

Hong Yan took Pan Chengfeng's wrist and went up to the second floor. Pan Chengfeng enjoyed this kind of "hospitality" very much. He said with a comfortable face: "Let's buy spiritual herbs first. Take a look at this list and see if there are any of them." Hong Yan took the list and took a look. She was secretly delighted and said: "It's a big list!" After reading the list, Hong Yan smiled and said: "Dear guest, please go to the room on the second floor to have tea first. I will go and ask if all the spiritual herbs are complete." As she said that, she took Pan Chengfeng to the room on the second floor and sat down. She twisted her slender waist to do the work. Pan Chengfeng took a sip of tea and said: "Not bad, fragrant and mellow, and there is a hint of spiritual energy." After that, he got up and left the room and wandered around the second floor. The second floor is half the size of the first floor, and there are fewer things, but the quality is much higher. Pan Chengfeng looked here and there and found that there were no price tags. Just when he was wondering, Hong Yan came back.

Seeing Pan Chengfeng looking around at the counter, Hong Yan asked with a smile: "What treasures are you looking for?" Pan Chengfeng smiled and said: "I'm just looking around. Why don't these things have prices?" Hong Yan smiled and said: "The prices of these treasures are basically floating, or sometimes they change." Pan Chengfeng said, "Oh," and asked: "What's the explanation?" Hong Yan said patiently: "Things are valuable because they are rare, or they are valuable because they are in demand. Some treasures may be ridiculously expensive at this time, but after a while, no one may be interested in them. For example, this Qingxin Pill, a few years ago, a relic was opened, and the foggy illusion inside was particularly Many cultivators needed to buy Qingxin Pills. Usually, no one wanted one bottle of one medium-grade crystal bead, but at that time, it was sold for ten medium-grade crystal beads. Besides, this ice-attribute spiritual weapon, everyone knows that ice-attribute skills are difficult to practice, and there are not many people who practice them, so ice-attribute spiritual weapons are relatively cheap. However, ice-attribute spiritual weapons are not only used by people who practice ice-attribute skills, and only by people who practice fire-attribute skills. Other attribute skills can also be used, but cultivators of other attributes cannot use it to its maximum power. But in special times or places, there are people who need it, so at that time, ice-attribute spiritual weapons are sold at a high price. "

Pan Chengfeng nodded and thought to himself, "Anyway, we just need to look at the market demand and adjust the price at any time. Hey, no matter where we are, merchants are profit seekers. Consumers are always the ones who suffer." Not caring about these, Pan Chengfeng asked, "Are all the spiritual herbs complete?" Hong Yan smiled and said, "Enough. The steward is an alchemist. When he saw these spiritual herbs, he knew that the distinguished guest wanted to refine the Red Fire Pill, so he wanted to ask if the distinguished guest would like to buy the finished pill?" Pan Chengfeng asked, "How many crystal beads are there for the spiritual herbs? How many crystal beads are there for the pill?" Hong Yan said, "The distinguished guest purchased ten spiritual herbs, which cost seventy medium-grade crystal beads. The finished pill contains three beads in a bottle, and thirty medium-grade crystal beads." Pan Chengfeng thought to himself, "That's exactly 100 crystal beads. That girl shouldn't be good, right?" Seeing Pan Chengfeng hesitating, Hong Yan quickly said, "Dear guest, the Red Fire Pill is a difficult pill to refine, and the success rate is not high. If ten spiritual herbs go well, you can only make three Red Fire Pills. So I suggest you buy the pill directly."

Seeing that this beautiful woman was honest, Pan Chengfeng smiled slightly, pinched Hong Yan's cheek and said, "I want all the spiritual herbs and elixirs. Here are 100 crystal beads. Take them." Hong Yan blushed, took the crystal beads and asked, "Do you want all of them?" Pan Chengfeng nodded and said, "Bring the things here." Hong Yan happily twisted her slender waist to count the goods, and soon placed the things in front of Pan Chengfeng. Pan Chengfeng didn't count them, but just waved his hand and put them all into the storage ring.

Hong Yan was very happy. She only had the second level of foundation building, and her looks were only average among the shop assistants. Her only advantages were her sweet mouth and big breasts. Shop assistants like them were often molested by customers, and they dared not offend customers, and dared not speak out. Pan Chengfeng just pinched her cheek. Compared with most people, he was already a gentleman. When Pan Chengfeng came in today, everyone felt that Pan Chengfeng was only at the fourth level of Qi training, so they were unwilling to greet him. In the end, she took the initiative to come out and greet Pan Chengfeng. Unexpectedly, she got such a big bargain. She could draw ten middle-grade crystal beads for this order, which was more than her usual annual income. And with these ten middle-grade crystal beads, she would be able to practice to the third level of foundation building.

Just as she was happy, Pan Chengfeng continued to ask, "How does Wanbao Pavilion collect things?" Hong Yan quickly adjusted her mentality and smiled, "Basically, as long as it is valuable, we will collect it, including spiritual herbs, spiritual medicines, spiritual pills, materials for refining tools, materials for making talismans, materials for monsters, and natural treasures." Pan Chengfeng's eyes lit up, and he took out a piece of snake scale and said, "Take a look at this thing, do you want to buy it?" Hong Yan's eyes lit up, "Is this the scale of a snake demon?" Pan Chengfeng said, "It's a snake demon scale of the early third level. Give me an estimate of its price." Hong Yan picked it up, felt the snake demon scale and said, "I don't understand this very well. Please wait a moment, my dear guest. I will ask the weapon refiner to come and take a look."
