Chapter 149: Chapter 106: Entering the Black Market, Exploring the Pill Formula (Seeking Monthly Tickets) 2
Translator: 549690339
Liang Sheng pieced together the situation of the black market like a puzzle, and roughly sorted out its structure.
However, Liang Sheng was still extremely careful, waiting for the three of them to have their Daoist hearts collapse, and then suddenly asked a few more questions, causing them to reflexively reveal the truth.
Now there shouldn’t be any major problems, so Liang Sheng finally let go of his worries. Then, with a flash of sword light, the three corpses were separated.
Next, Liang Sheng still used the Fireball Technique to dispose of their corpses, leaving only their cultivation resources to be placed in his Storage Bag.
If they were to let them leave alive, there might be unnecessary troubles. Liang Sheng has never been a good person, and since he has already done evil, there is no need for pretense.
After making sure that he has cleanly wiped out all traces, Liang Sheng put on a cloak from their backpacks and headed towards the black market.
This cloak doesn’t have any concealment methods; it is simply an Array for hiding one s identity, which is also one reason why the black market can last so long.
In fact, there is more than one black market controller behind the scenes; there are three Loose Cultivators at the Qi Cultivation Ninth Level. As for their specific identities, the three Loose Cultivators who answered the questions earlier did not know.
Among the black market, there are many items of unimown origin, and the prices are very reasonable. Many items are much cheaper than those in the shops of the Three Sects and Six Orders.
That’s why there are middlemen like the One-Eyed Dragon who buy low and sell high. However, for every transaction, the black market controllers take a 10% handling fee, but many Loose Cultivators are willing to pay this fee for the chance to get rid of the items of unknown origin.
Apart from the three controllers at the Qi Cultivation Ninth Level, they have several Qi Cultivation Eighth Level managers under their command, making the organization very tight-knit.
As for the peripheral thugs, the three Loose Cultivators just now were not very clear, but if anyone breaks the rules, they would almost always be found in no time and executed publicly.
This was the case for the few people who heard Liang Sheng spreading rumors in the market years ago and never came out in the end.
Liang Sheng didn’t intend to break the black market’s rules; he only wanted to calmly gather the materials for the Foundation Establishment Pill recipe. However, this time was a test.
If this test goes well, the next time he enters the black market, he will go straight for the Foundation Establishment Pill recipe.
When he arrived at the black market, Liang Sheng looked at the Illusion Array Technique on the cliff in front of him with bright, spirited eyes. He was no longer the person who didn’t understand arrays in the past.
The Illusion Array Technique of the black market controllers was actually quite strong, but it was not the kind that was invulnerable.
With this thought, Liang Sheng calmed down completely and then, without any hesitation, stepped into the blackmarket.
When he stepped into the Illusion Array Technique, a dizzying sensation struck him. Liang Sheng immediately shielded himself and was not affected, but he still pretended to be groggy on the surface until someone spoke up from the other side.
“Daoist Friend.”
At this moment, Liang Sheng seemed to have just regained consciousness and hastily returned the greeting. However, the other person was also hidden under a cloak, and his cloak was different from Liang Sheng’s and the One-Eyed Cultivator’s, apparently a biack market manager.
Seeing Liang Sheng regain consciousness, the other party didn’t say much but just raised his hand and made an imaginary welcoming gesture. Liang Sheng didn’t say anything either; he just nodded and stepped directly into the real black market.
The structure of rhe black market is like a small, self-contained marketplace where you can buy and sell things. To buy or sell something, you have to go to the high platform in front of the small building and register your needs.
If you want to buy something, you have to pay a deposit, and your purchase request will be displayed next to the high platform, making it extremely convenient.
If you want to sell something, you only need to register the information of what you’re selling. If a deal is made, you’ll have to pay a 10% commission.
Whether buying or selling, no personal information will be registered. Everyone receives a jade slip, and as soon as there’s news, you’ll get a prompt on your jade slip.
Of course, Liang Sheng wouldn’t sell anything this time. He just calmly wandered around the black market, looking for his target.
In the black market, there were faint, hidden presences of three separate forces. As expected, they should be the three Qi Cultivation Ninth Level controllers behind the scenes.
Apart from that, there were quite a few Qi Cultivation Eighth Level presences. Liang Sheng couldn’t help but sigh – such a force couldn’t be ignored in the market.
No wonder the black market has been passed down for so long. They have both strength and a well-organized structure, which is truly impressive.
At this point, Liang Sheng looked around and saw quite a few nice items, such as the Demon Wolf fur for making high-quality Wolf Hair Brushes. However, he didn’t buy it.
This Wolf Hair Brush is related to his current identity as a Talisman Maker in the market, and he wouldn’t look for trouble, even if the chances of trouble are slim.
Nevertheless, he was overjoyed by other refining materials like Seven Colored Steel and Golden Spirit Stones.
Liang Sheng didn’t hesitate to purchase a large amount of refining materials. Naturally, the people in the black market were watching.
It seemed that this Daoist friend was an Artifact Refiner. Although they didn’t know each other’s cultivation level because of the cloaks, they all treated each other politely.
After all, in the black market, as long as people don’t violate the rules, they can customize things privately, such as asking Alchemists to refine pills and trade the next time they meet.
Next, the Loose Cultivators who didn’t know each other’s identities had their own thoughts, and Liang Sheng accepted many acts of goodwill.
There was even someone who asked Liang Sheng if he could refine a
Two-Pattern Magical Device. Liang Sheng shook his head and the person left with a sigh.
Three days later, the black market closed. Everyone left at different times. As for whether they feared being ambushed, one of the Qi Cultivation Ninth Level controllers from the black market was personally guarding the outside to prevent such incidents from happening..
