Chapter 1971: Underground Market
Bright Island was originally a desolate island in the entire Azure Fallen Immortal Sea. As time passed, many experts came here to trade. The number of cultivators and experts here increased. This place had also become the gathering place for the experts of the Azure Fallen Immortal Sea.
However, there were no forces, sects, or families here. It was just a temporary foothold for cultivators.
On the surface, there were some large and small auction houses here, but the underground market was where the strong wanted to go.
It was said that the underground market this time was initiated by a few True God powerhouses. They had many precious treasures and materials in their hands. Moreover, the scale of this underground market was the largest in the history of Bright Island’s underground market.
Those who came to participate in the auction were all super experts, cultivators with considerable wealth, and disciples of some families and sects.
However, after coming to Bright Island, all of their identities had lost their advantages. In a world where the strong were respected, they could only rely on their own strength after leaving the safety of their sects and families.
It was as if he had entered danger from a safe zone.
Lan Tianyue had heard the news that this underground market was built temporarily. In other words, there might not be a next time after it opened this time.
However, the allure of the treasure still made countless experts and cultivators scramble for it.
Cultivators pursued great strength throughout their lives. Great strength required all kinds of pills, treasures, cultivation techniques, and resources to support it.
Li Lingtian and Xiao Mengxuan found Bright Island based on their location and finally landed.
There were countless experts and cultivators on the island, and their cultivation levels were very ordinary. There was no difference if they were thrown into the crowd.
Li Lingtian did not stop there. He found a small cave abode on Bright Island and settled down. Although he had spent a lot of Supreme Spiritual Stones, the cave abode was safe.
Fifty Supreme Spiritual Stones a day was equivalent to 50 million Lower Spiritual Stones. It was obvious that 50 million Lower Spiritual Stones was needed for a night in the cave abode.
A Supreme Spiritual Stone was equivalent to 100 Upper Spiritual Stones, 10,000 Medium Spiritual Stones, and 1,000,000 Lower Spiritual Stones.
He had a principle, and that was that things that could be solved by spirit stones were not problems.
In such a place, safety was the most important. He did not want to put himself in danger for a few spirit stones.
Xiao Mengxuan could only be surprised by Li Lingtian’s lavish spending but she did not say anything.
The price was worth it. This cave abode was extremely luxurious and the immortal energy was extremely dense. It could be said to be the place with the densest immortal energy on the entire Bright Island.
"Let’s rest here for a while."
"I’ll go out and ask around."
After Li Lingtian arrived at the cave abode, he instructed Xiao Mengxuan to rest here while he went out to gather information.
Although Lan Tianyue had already gathered a lot of information, it was too far away. The information from a few days ago might have changed a few days later. Moreover, the information that the Blue Moon Sect had gathered might not be completely accurate.
Moreover, a low-level sect like the Blue Moon Sect had limited information.
He was the most experienced in this aspect.
Some precious information required a huge price to pay. The forces of the Blue Moon Sect could not afford this price at all, nor did they have the qualifications to obtain this information. Therefore, he had to personally take action.
Moreover, he was used to having everything under his control.
He didn’t want any accidents to happen during this critical period, so he was most at ease if he heard the news himself.
"M-Senior, be careful."
Xiao Mengxuan nodded as she spoke. However, she had just casually addressed him as Senior Brother. Now that she realized that there was no one else around, she could not address him as Senior Brother or it would offend Li Lingtian.
Thus, he quickly changed his address and addressed her as senior.
Li Lingtian took note of this but did not say anything.
Then, he cast a few simple formations on the cave abode and left the cave abode alone, walking towards the center of Ming Island.
This Bright Island had a radius of millions of miles. Although there were no major forces on it, there were countless shops. There were no mortals in the Heaven Realm. Even ordinary people could become Martial Honors and Martial Emperors after a little cultivation. Therefore, all the shops were for the use of cultivators and experts.
Bright Island was one of the biggest trading places in the Azure Fallen Immortal Sea. It had the most cultivators and experts. The flow of cultivators and experts here was the greatest. Countless experts came and went every day.
The treasures, materials, and all kinds of treasures obtained from the Immortal Sea appeared and were traded here.
Li Lingtian’s cultivation base had been suppressed to the peak of the Ninth Firmament Martial Emperor Realm. With such a cultivation base, he was only one step away from becoming a Martial Saint. Furthermore, his appearance and age matched his cultivation base.
Although Wu Zun and Wu Di were at the bottom of the hierarchy, they were a part that could not be lacking.
Even in a world where the strong were respected, the laws and iron laws did not allow super experts to kill innocent low-level cultivators. In fact, even without the laws and iron laws, super experts would not go crazy and kill innocent people.
This was because it would easily arouse public anger and hurt one’s reputation.
Li Lingtian spent a long time on the island before he finally found the final location of the underground market. He had successfully obtained the opportunity to enter the underground market, but he had to spend some Spiritual Stones.
With his cultivation, it was basically impossible for him to participate in some underground market transactions.
After gaining the opportunity to enter the underground market and inquiring about the time of the underground market’s transaction, Li Lingtian returned to his cave abode. There were still two days before the underground market’s transaction.
After Li Lingtian left the Secret Realm of the Blue Moon Sect, the speed of his recovery was too slow to bear. Therefore, he did not need to stay here to recuperate.
Taking advantage of this trip, he could understand the Heaven Realm. The more he understood, the more beneficial it would be for him.
After resting for a night in the cave abode, Li Lingtian left the cave abode with Xiao Mengxuan the next day for a stroll on Bright Island. Bright Island was just an island, similar to the territory of some large sects and clans. Although it was not occupied by any sects or clans, the place was filled with pavilions, forming a city.
Along the way, Xiao Mengxuan looked around curiously.
Li Lingtian was extremely curious about this place. After all, this was his first time visiting the Heaven Realm and his first time learning about it.
The Heaven Realm was indeed the Heaven Realm. The experts had strong cultivation, the immortal energy was dense, and the environment was excellent.
The things on the island were much more expensive than those in other places.
Therefore, in this place, ordinary things were more expensive than other places. Only treasures and materials were cheaper than other places.
Li Lingtian spent the next two days strolling around, inquiring about the prices of materials, elixirs, and treasures from various shops. He was assessing the forces in this world based on their prices.
At the same time, he had also purchased many jade slips.
There were some pill recipes and map jade slips. These jade slips and pill recipes were the most common things to powerhouses in the Heaven Realm. However, to Li Lingtian, they were priceless treasures.
This was because he wanted to obtain some information from these pill recipes and jade slips.
The pill formulas were basically all top-notch and precious pill formulas. Tier 8, 9, and 10 pill formulas were also very common. There were even immortal pill formulas.
The jade slip naturally contained a complete map of the forces in the Green Fallen Immortal Sea and a rough map of the entire Eastern Wood Sacred Realm.
In two days, Li Lingtian had used up quite a number of Spiritual Stones and purchased quite a number of pill formulas and jade slips. Furthermore, many of the jade slips and pill formulas were duplicated.
After careful observation and understanding, these pill recipes and jade slips were all the same, and there was not much difference.
He was basically certain that the Divine Martial Continent was the lowest level plane in the Heaven Realm. The Heaven Realm was the place where the true experts and gods lived.
The Divine Martial Continent was filled with mortals, while the Heaven Realm was where the Gods lived.
There was no need to explain the difference between gods and humans.
The Azure Falling Immortal Sea was not something that the Divine Martial Continent could compare to, let alone the other places in the Heaven Realm.
The difference between the Divine Martial Continent and the Heaven Realm was incomparable, because it was the difference between time and the plane.
After gaining a general understanding of the Heaven Realm, Li Lingtian’s blood boiled. This was the heaven of the true powerhouses, the stage of the gods. As a Lower True God, he was also a part of the gods.
He might be supreme in the Divine Martial Continent, but in the Heaven Realm, where the gods were, he was at the bottom. He could only be the lowest god.
If he wanted to establish himself in the Heaven Realm, he had to strengthen himself.
Low-level True Gods were only low-level Gods. Only those with higher cultivation and strength could obtain a higher status.
This was the ultimate stage for the strong, the place where the gods lived, the place where countless trillions of cultivators pursued immortality, and the place where countless living beings looked up to.
At the same time, this place was also the hell of countless cultivators.
After two days of wandering, Li Lingtian had gained a lot. It could be said that he had truly opened the door to a new world.
Moreover, he had already delved deep into this world, a different world.
A while ago, he had roughly known that he had arrived in the Heaven Realm. Now that he had truly begun to come into contact with this world, this world had opened a supreme door for his soul.
Xiao Mengxuan did not know what Li Lingtian was doing. Although she was curious, she did not dare to ask anything. Instead, she played happily.
Although she was born and raised in the Heaven Realm, she had never left the Blue Moon Sect, so she knew nothing about the outside world. This was the first time she had left the Blue Moon Sect, so she was very curious about the outside world.
Two days later, Li Lingtian left the cave abode and headed toward the underground market.
Today was the day of the trade in the underground market. The trade only lasted for one night. After the trade, the cultivators and experts would leave the market. Whether they left Bright Island or stayed on Bright Island was up to the cultivators.
Soon, the two of them arrived at the entrance of the underground market.
Li Lingtian and Xiao Mengxuan were extremely excited as they watched the powerhouses enter the underground market’s Teleportation Formation in groups. After all, it was their first time.
While he was excited, Li Lingtian was more vigilant. He was injured now and it was best not to be targeted.
Now that he was targeted by a True God, he could only escape.
This was because if he used a powerful forbidden divine art, it would have a huge impact on his injuries. He did not want any accidents to happen at this critical period.
