Chapter 111: Endless Sea
This city looks a lot weirder than before.
Chen Li didn't know what was going on, and suddenly he felt his consciousness become a little fuzzy.
"Take this." After seeing that something was wrong with Chen Li, Zheng Yuan handed him a pill in his hand.
Chen Li was a little confused, "Why, is there any other explanation for this?"
"There are so many dead bodies in the Wuya Sea that miasma has already been generated. If you don't take the Barrier Breaking Pill, your consciousness will definitely be invaded." Zheng Yuan said.
When outside, the miasma is not as much as inside, so naturally there is no need for barrier-breaking pills.
But now they have reached the periphery, and even if they are Jindan-stage cultivators, they will be affected by the miasma here.
Chen Li took the Barrier Breaking Pill and after confirming that there was no problem, he swallowed it directly.
He had felt somewhat uncomfortable for a moment, but now he felt a lot more relaxed.
"To be honest, you're already doing well. If you were a cultivator in the Foundation Establishment Stage, you would have probably started vomiting blood by now." Zheng Yuan said this after handing the pill to Chen Li.
Chen Li waved his hand and said, "I have never been to the Boundless Sea. If I knew, I would not be like this."
Zheng Yuan did not continue the topic, but looked at Wuya City over there: "I suggest you be careful in that place, Jindan stage people can't do anything wrong there."
There are many Jindan-stage cultivators in the Boundless Sea. If you look down on others because of this, you will really die here.
Chen Li nodded, then followed Zheng Yuan and left here step by step.
As he walked along, Chen Li could feel the wailing sounds coming from all around him.
The howling of the monsters made Chen Li frown. Just by listening to the sound, he could tell that there were at least dozens of monsters here.
This is just a rough count, and there may be even more monsters hiding in the dark.
I have to say, this boundless sea is really more terrifying than I imagined.
At this time, Chen Li was also scanning the surrounding situation, and then he saw a figure being suddenly bitten to death by a monster.
"Don't worry about it. This is very common in the Boundless Sea. Are you the kind of person who likes to be brave and do what is right?" After seeing Chen Li observing the situation over there, Zheng Yuan also reminded him.
Chen Li sneered, "What I care about is not saving people, but the storage bag on that person."
Zheng Yuan was stunned when he heard this.
Although many people have almost no feelings towards the dead, and are too lazy to care.
But there is probably no one like Chen Li who is interested in other people's storage bags.
"Your idea is really unique." Zheng Yuan said jokingly.
But Chen Li said, "Who do you think could have come to the Boundless Sea?"
"Usually, they are people who are constantly being hunted and who are in possession of treasures they shouldn't have." Zheng Yuan replied, touching his chin.
As soon as he finished speaking, Zheng Yuan suddenly raised his head and looked at Chen Li in astonishment: "Is there any such operation?"
"Go and take a look?" Chen Li asked Zheng Yuan.
Zheng Yuan nodded, "Of course."
For them, there is no such thing as too many treasures. Even if they don’t have anything, they will not lose anything. If they have something, they will make a profit.
Afterwards, Chen Li looked at the monster that was gnawing on the corpse. It was just a monster in the late stage of foundation building and posed no danger at all.
In an instant, Chen Li appeared beside the monster. He swung the sword in his hand suddenly, and the monster had no time to react before he killed it immediately.
Afterwards, Zheng Yuan picked up the storage bag on the ground and threw it to Chen Li.
"What are you going to do for me?" Chen Li asked.
Zheng Yuan said straightforwardly: "Of course I'll let you divide first."
Facing Zheng Yuan's flattery, Chen Li was a little confused: "After all, we are just a cooperative relationship. What's the point of you trying to please me like this?"
"How could it be ineffective? Don't you think about your position? You are just a temporary elder. In the future in the Red Blood Sect, I will have an elder to back me up. Then I will be able to speak more confidently to those elders." Zheng Yuan was frank and spoke his mind directly.
The Red Blood Sect is a sect after all, so naturally there are people in it who curry favor with the powerful and bully the weak and fear the strong.
If he could get in touch with the elders, his status in the sect would naturally rise.
"Haven't you already said it? This is just a tentative decision. If we can't bring the Soul-Killing Flag back this time , there's nothing to discuss." Chen Li said bluntly.
Facing Chen Li's statement, Zheng Yuan waved his hand and said, "If we can't go back, both of us will die. What's the point of holding these things? But if we can go back, won't I be able to get promoted?"
Chen Li didn't think about anything, but used his spiritual sense to explore the contents of the storage bag.
There is nothing good in here. Except for a few mid-grade spirit stones, everything else is garbage.
It seems that I guessed wrong this time.
Um?
At this time, Chen Li also saw a scroll in the storage bag.
The scroll is sealed with a very strange spiritual energy, and it is almost impossible to open it without a specific method.
"It seems that there is nothing good in here." Chen Li took out the scroll and then threw the storage bag directly to Zheng Yuan.
After Zheng Yuan checked, he couldn't help but be stunned, "Why are they so poor?"
This made Chen Li not know what to say.
For cultivators in the Foundation Establishment Stage, a few mid-grade spirit stones are already a huge sum of money, but in their eyes, these things are almost useless.
Once one reaches the Jindan stage, the spiritual energy provided by the mid-grade spirit stones is very minimal.
"Forget it, a little more money is fine, but what is the origin of this scroll of yours?" After Zheng Yuan put the spirit stone into his space ring, he asked Chen Li.
Chen Li shook his head. "I don't know, but the spiritual energy here is a little strange. It seems that it needs a specific method to be opened."
"Maybe it's something good. Let's take a look after we go to Wuya City." Zheng Yuan said.
Chen Li glanced at Wuya City over there, and his expression turned a little ugly.
"That place, do you think there is any good place for us to check this thing?" Chen Li stared at Wuya City over there, his eyes full of vigilance.
How can we talk about safety in such an abandoned city when we don’t even know if there is a single intact building in it?
Zheng Yuan shook his head and said, "You're right, there is indeed a good place here, but it's quite expensive."
Is consumption more expensive?
When hearing this, Chen Li's face showed a look of doubt.
"Let's go over there and take a look for now." Zheng Yuan said, and took Chen Li directly to Wuya City.
Chen Li did not continue talking. He followed Zheng Yuan and soon entered Wuya City.
This place is more like a pile of abandoned ruins than a city. Although there are some buildings around, most of them are in ruins.
Um?
At this time, Chen Li shifted his gaze to the innermost place.
It seems to be the location of the City Lord's Mansion.
The place was surprisingly intact and looked quite magnificent.
Chen Li stared at that place and asked Zheng Yuan, "Is that the good place you mentioned?"
"The City Lord's Mansion was originally abandoned, but a group of great monks came from somewhere and opened a shelter there. As long as you enter and become their guest, you will be absolutely safe." Zheng Yuan also said the same thing.
Absolutely safe?
This made Chen Li frown.
As the saying goes, nothing is absolute. Is it really safe?
"Is it really as mysterious as you say?" Chen Li asked.
Zheng Yuan nodded. "It's normal that you don't believe it, but you have to know one thing. Before, a cultivator in the middle stage of the Golden Core wanted to cause trouble inside, but he was slapped to death. As for the person who slapped the cultivator to death, he has disappeared without a trace."
After hearing this, Chen Li couldn't help but widen his eyes. This was really unexpected.
In other words, there is indeed a great monk in charge here.
Not long after, Chen Li and the other two were already standing at this place.
"Welcome, both of you. Do you need shelter?" At this time, a figure walked into the sight of Chen Li and the others.
He was a middle-aged man who looked rather sturdy and exuded a fierce aura.
The early stage of Jindan.
This strength is almost the same as Chen Li's.
Chen Li took a look at his clothes, which were the same as those of the waiter in the inn.
How could such a capable person work as a waiter here?
"We want a quiet room for a day. How much will it cost?" Zheng Yuan asked the man.
The sturdy man did not hesitate at all and said directly: "A piece of top-grade spiritual stone."
This sentence made Chen Li stunned. Just the price of one day actually required a top-grade spirit stone.
Isn't this crazy?
But Zheng Yuan did not hesitate at all. He took out a top-grade spirit stone from his space ring and threw it to the burly man.
The sturdy man took the spirit stone, and after confirming that it was correct, he grabbed it with his right hand, and a key in the distance was directly attracted over.
"Here are your keys, please keep them safe. It's the first room on the left upstairs. Please abide by the rules here and don't disturb other guests." The burly man said to Chen Li and the others.
Zheng Yuan didn't continue talking and took Chen Li upstairs.
When they went upstairs and entered the room, they found that the furnishings here were quite luxurious, and even the spiritual energy was very abundant, which was completely different from the thin situation outside.
