Chapter 698: Chapter 244: Marketplace_3
The Lightweight Skill has seen considerable improvement.
Since joining the Infinite Sect, Lin Zheyu has started reading a large number of Martial Dao books.
His speed in accumulating Martial Dao knowledge, along with the enhancement of spirit and the concentration of spiritual sense, has become increasingly astonishing.
Now, Lin Zheyu’s Martial Dao knowledge has reached an astonishing degree.
Even Mr. Yang can’t match him.
Lately, with nothing to do, Lin Zheyu made some improvements to the Illusion Flashing Soul-Chasing Step based on accumulated knowledge.
Named it Soul-Chasing Step!
The improved Lightweight Skill reached the utmost utilization rate of True Essence energy.
At the same time, Soul-Chasing Step became more flexible and powerful in using True Essence. When operating the Lightweight Skill, the terrifying speed reduced the strain brought on the physique considerably.
Thus, Lin Zheyu’s limit speed has increased again.
At full force, it could reach a terrifying level of eight times the speed of sound.
However, limited by the strength of spirit, at speeds above seven times the speed of sound, Lin Zheyu could hardly see the surroundings clearly.
Speeds above seven times the sound are temporarily suitable for life-saving situations only.

Lin Zheyu looked at the data in his consciousness.
Source Power has accumulated to 127 units.
Originally accumulated nearly one hundred and fifty units, but Lin Zheyu spent more than twenty units on cultivating the Primordial Thunderfire Pill Skill and Soul-Chasing Step.
Primordial Thunderfire Pill Skill is inspired by Melting Furnace Body Tempering Skill and alchemy methods.
He tempered his physique like a pill, using the Thunderfire True Essence characteristic as the pill fire, refining his physique into a pill.
"I’m going out for a while."
Lin Zheyu stood up, left the courtyard, and said to Yuqing: "If someone comes looking for me, tell them to come back tomorrow."
"Yes, Master."
Yuqing replied respectfully.
Leaving Wuling City, Lin Zheyu headed northwest.
Over two hundred kilometers northwest, there’s a huge lake called Cyan Snake Lake.
In Cyan Snake Lake, live a large number of cyan sea snakes, hence the name.
Hiss~~
Hiss hiss~~
Just arriving near Cyan Snake Lake, one can see cyan long snakes sticking out their tongues everywhere, including giant cyan pythons over ten meters long.
Swish——
A python as thick as a barrel suddenly shoots out from a nearby swamp, opens its bloody mouth wide, and bites toward Lin Zheyu.
Swoosh——
Blade light slashes, the python lets out a miserable scream, dividing the snake head in two, the whole python falls to the ground.
Lin Zheyu didn’t even glance at it, continuing forward.
Quickly, he arrived at Cyan Snake Lake.
Cyan Snake Lake is very deep, at the deepest point nearly five hundred meters, it’s the training ground for pursuing a new breakthrough.
Lin Zheyu took off his shirt and trousers, stored them in the storage bag. Then, wearing only shorts, he swished into the lake.
A large number of cyan water snakes swam past Lin Zheyu.
Before long, Lin Zheyu sank to over a hundred meters deep, and began his usual training.
Scarlet True Essence circulated around him, with lightning arcs emanating from Lin Zheyu, sending terrifying crackling noises from the seabed.
Water snakes smelling prey came over, were numbed by the lightning arcs, then turned around to escape in a fright.
More than an hour later.
Lin Zheyu sat on the lakeshore of Cyan Snake Lake, panting heavily.
He tapped the storage bag with his right hand, and three bottles of spiritual liquid appeared in Lin Zheyu’s hand. With True Essence circulation, transforming into rolling energy, merging into Lin Zheyu’s body.

Name: Lin Zheyu
Source Power: 132
Skills:
Mixed Element Concealing Breath Skill (Perfection)
Primordial Thunderfire Pill Skill (Perfection)
Soul-Chasing Step (Third Level 100%)
"132 units of Source Power, almost there."
"If danger arises, a speed of eight times the sound is almost sufficient."
Lin Zheyu looked at the data in his consciousness, he had made a decision in his heart.
Over the past three months, he inquired about news of the Martial Alliance through various channels. But considering they’re in different domains, combined with Martial Alliance’s low profile, Lin Zheyu still found nothing.
He didn’t plan to wait any longer.
The Primordial Thunderfire Pill Skill isn’t merely for fast consumption of True Essence and physical strength, or accelerating breakthroughs.
The body refining effect of this technique is top-notch.
Compared to before, Lin Zheyu’s physique has greatly improved.
Now Lin Zheyu doesn’t even know how strong he is.
But he feels, if he encounters those two Barbarian strongmen again, he can slay them more easily.
Two days later.
In the deep mountains outside Wuling City.
A burly silhouette quickly darted through the forest.
The man’s speed is very fast.
A fierce beast searching for food, only felt the gust of wind by his side, and hadn’t reacted before the figure disappeared.
Leaving the beast bewildered, looking around.
"This is the place."
Lin Zheyu stopped, looking at the unfamiliar valley.
This valley is very ordinary, no different from any other valley.
The sensing field slowly spread from Lin Zheyu as the center, extending in all directions, covering a radius of more than two kilometers, all within Lin Zheyu’s perception.
"No abnormalities sensed."
"According to Lei Yunshu’s explanation, the Cultivation Marketplace is located inside a dilapidated Grotto Heaven, through an array?"
Lin Zheyu pondered silently.
Through the sensing field, he felt nothing unusual.
Lin Zheyu frowned slightly, spreading his spiritual sense.
Since the sensing field can’t detect, he can only rely on spiritual sense.
The coverage of spiritual sense is very small, Lin Zheyu could only search by moving around, seeking the possible entrance to the Cultivation Marketplace.
Swish, swish, swish——
Lin Zheyu moved fast through the forest, emitting spiritual sense, searching for the Cultivation Marketplace.
A day.
Two days.
Three days.
Lin Zheyu stayed in the valley for three days, but didn’t find the so-called Cultivation Marketplace.
If Lei Yunshu wasn’t necessary to deceive him on this matter, Lin Zheyu would have thought he was lying.
"Strange, why can’t I find it..."
"Lei Yunshu mentioned that entering the marketplace doesn’t require a token, just need to be here to find the location."
"But why can’t I find it?"
Lin Zheyu muttered softly.
Three days.
He searched for three days, turned the whole valley upside down, yet found nothing.
"Oh, someone’s here!"
Suddenly, Lin Zheyu’s expression shifted.
Within the coverage of his sensing field, two figures quickly flashed past.
Their speed is very fast, with earthy-colored Escape Light flickering around them, about to leave the coverage of Lin Zheyu’s sensing field in a few breaths.
"Seems like they’re not very strong, can’t detect my sensing field."
Lin Zheyu smiled slightly.
Having cultivators appear here might mean they’re going to the marketplace.
By following them, watching how they enter, Lin Zheyu would find the location too.
Lin Zheyu moved swiftly, following them.
...
Two earthy-colored Escape Lights stopped at a hillside, revealing two youthful figures.
The handsome boy and the girl appearing slightly naive.
"Senior Brother, does it really sell everything inside?"
The girl looked at her senior brother, asking curiously.
"Yes."
"Though the goods here are much more expensive than the Observatory, and quality is inferior, for regular cultivation resources, it’s best to exchange through the Observatory."
The young man smiled and said.
His hands formed a gesture, pointed forward, a purple rhomboid mark flew out.
The rhomboid mark flew forward, turned sharply after over thirty meters.
Poof——
A sound like a stone dropped into water resonated.
An invisible barrier suddenly appeared in the air, creating ripples as the rhomboid mark submerged within.
"Let’s go!"
The young man smiled and said.
They moved, merged into the invisible barrier.
Moments later, Lin Zheyu appeared where they originally stood.
"So that’s why, no wonder I couldn’t discover earlier."
Lin Zheyu’s face revealed a hint of realization.
In his perception, there was nothing abnormal in front, whether through sensing field or spiritual sense, couldn’t detect any anomaly here.
"Catch up, can’t let them slip away."
Lin Zheyu mused.
His figure moved, followed into it.
...
