Chapter 317 Ghost Market Certificate, Plan Change (Two in One)
"Are all the houses in Paradise City the same price?"
Zhang Jing looked at the bronze animal head on the door and asked calmly.
"All the houses in the outer city are like this. If you find it too cheap, you can raise your status to the level of a citizen, and then you can go to the inner city, where the price of houses will be higher."
"...should be worthy of your status."
As if sensing the aura of a large amount of copper coins on Zhang Jing's body, the bronze beast head lowered his posture and said, with a hint of flattery in his voice.
"This time I met a big customer, and he actually disliked the low price of the house. If I behave better, I might get extra rewards."
The bronze beast head thought of this, and his heart felt hot.
It must use all its strength to serve this uncle well!
"Outer city, Shangmin?"
Zhang Jing keenly caught the key point in the other party's words: There are actually levels of hierarchy in Paradise City!
Although I don't know exactly what it does.
But he knew with his feet that the higher his status, the more advantageous he would be in this paradise city.
"It should be related to the opportunity that many Taoist creatures in the fairy city are flocking to." Zhang Jing guessed.
But these are all things for later.
He is currently planning to completely refine the Xu Zang Immortal Clothes first.
By then, whether it is to go outside the fairy city to hunt more ferocious beasts for research purposes and obtain more copper coins at the same time, or to deal with many powerful people in the Shadow Pavilion, the certainty will be greater and safer.
But before that, you can go to the Paradise Ghost Market first.
Zhang Jing's eyes narrowed slightly.
He was really curious about the Paradise Ghost City that the voice mentioned emphatically.
"In that case, let's live there for ten years." Zhang Jing roughly estimated the time it would take him to completely refine the Void Treasure Clothes, and said without hesitation.
Ten green copper coins flew out of his hand and were immediately swallowed by the bronze beast head on the door.
The other party smiled and slowly opened the door to the house: "Please come in!"
The door opens, and the view suddenly becomes clear.
Only then did Zhang Jingshi discover that there was a cave behind the door.
From the outside, it looks like a small room, but inside, it actually covers dozens of acres, with pavilions, bridges, flowing water, and fairy grass garden. It's so beautiful.
"Not bad."
Zhang Jing sighed in admiration and nodded with satisfaction.
Although it is still as different as clouds and mud compared to the Lingshu Mountain Dojo, but compared to the environment where I have been living in the open for several years, it is already rare.
And at this moment.
Not far away, Wang Zizai's attention was secretly on Zhang Jing from time to time, looking a little dazed.
Everything just now was seen by him.
Although this person only took out ten copper coins, which was not too much.
But Wang Zizai could clearly see that the other party's gesture of giving out the copper coins was extremely casual and did not look like an act at all. Besides, the two parties were strangers to each other, and there was no need for him to act in front of him.
This shows that the copper coins were not exchanged by this person using his own time.
And whether the copper coins come from the Gods and Demons Tower, the Star Reaching Tower, or those terrifying beasts outside the city, it all proves one thing - the strength is extremely terrifying.
The key is still a strange and strong person.
Wang Zizai has been worried about how he will escape the pursuit of the forces in Guanying Pavilion after the Paradise Island is closed in the future.
But after seeing this person, an idea suddenly came to his mind.
If it is feasible, maybe... A gleam flashed in Wang Zizai's eyes.
He walked gently to Zhang Jing's side and plucked up the courage to say: "This fellow Taoist, I'm Wang Wu, lives next door to you. We are destined to meet each other. If you have any questions or don't understand something, just come and ask me. ."
Hear the sound.
Zhang Jing turned to look at the other party, nodded with a smile and said: "I'm Qingyun, thank you fellow Taoist."
"Fellow Taoist Qingyun, you are so polite. After all, we are all neighbors and belong to the same human race. We should help each other." Wang Zizai patted his chest and said in a pretentious manner: "Fellow Taoist Qingyun has just arrived, so I won't disturb you for now."
After a brief greeting, Wang Zizai said goodbye without staying too long.
He did not take the opportunity to rush to close the relationship between the two.
On the one hand, being too enthusiastic will make the person in front of you suspicious; on the other hand, the other person will have to live next door for at least ten years. I have plenty of time to build a good relationship with him and start plans, so there is no need to rush.
As the saying goes, you can't eat hot tofu in a hurry.
"Qingyun, Qingyun, whether I can get out of trouble may depend on you. Just plan slowly."
On the way back.
Wang Zizai thought to himself, his eyes filled with unprecedented hope.
"interesting."
In front of the door, Zhang Jing smiled calmly.
He suddenly thought of a famous saying in his previous life - being courteous for nothing is either a traitor or a thief. There is no better way to describe this person than to describe him.
Shaked his head.
Zhang Jing simply stopped thinking about this and walked directly into the yard. The door closed tightly with a bang.
He doesn't care about the other party's conspiracy. After all, we are in the immortal world, without strength as support, so the so-called conspiracy is just a joke.
And it just so happened that Wang Wu just now was just an ordinary Hedao Realm True Immortal and would not pose any threat to him.
Two hours later.
Zhang Jing walked out of the courtyard and quickly disappeared at the far corner of the street.
I spent half a day wandering around the Paradise City.
Of course, because the Fairy City is too vast, he didn't even finish visiting the Eastern Outer City where he was currently located in this short time. But a glimpse of it revealed the whole thing, and the outline of the Paradise City gradually became clear in Zhang Jing's mind.
The most numerous houses in the fairy city are the houses prepared for many foreign creatures. In addition, there are various special buildings, such as the Bank, the Colosseum, the Star Building, the God and Demon Tower, the Beauty Square, etc.
There were humanoid creatures inside that he couldn't tell how powerful they were.
Although it has just been opened, there are already many creatures in the city, whether human or other races, bustling and bustling, making this huge fairy city not deserted at all.
In front of a nine-story attic.
Zhang Jing raised his head slightly and glanced at the plaque directly above the door.
Bliss Bank!
"Welcome distinguished guest, may I ask if you want to exchange copper coins?"
As soon as he half-stepped through the bank gate, an old man with a white beard came up to him quickly and asked enthusiastically.
Zhang Jing smiled noncommittally and responded gently:
"I'm just here to take a look. May I ask the shopkeeper, what kind of things should I use to exchange the copper coins here?"
"The distinguished guest should be
The old man didn't answer. He just took Zhang Jing to a wooden table in the room and sat down. He made tea and asked with a smile.
Zhang Jingding nodded.
"All the banks in the Paradise City only accept one kind of exchange, and that is the time of the distinguished guests."
"Time?"
"That's right," the old man smiled, stroking his white beard, and patiently explained: "Every living creature has its own life span. The distinguished guest can also simply understand it as longevity, although this is not the same thing."
Time? Shouyuan?
Zhang Jing's heart trembled.
As I had expected before, this bank and the Paradise City behind it were indeed not simple.
He raised his eyelids and asked calmly: "What about the exchange ratio?"
"Ten months can be exchanged for one white copper coin, and a hundred years can be exchanged for one bronze coin. In addition, distinguished guests can also exchange white copper coins for bronze coins at the bank, one hundred and twenty for one."
"Of course, this is only the exchange ratio at the Paradise Bank in the outer city. If it were in the inner city, it would take eighty years to exchange for one bronze coin."
The old man replied leisurely.
Listen.
A strange look flashed across Zhang Jing's face.
How about the inner city is not considered for now, after all, he is currently in the outer city.
A hundred years can only be exchanged for one bronze coin, but one can only be used to live in the outer city for one year. One hundred to one, Paradise City is really a bit too dark.
When I think about it, I was still shouting that it was cheap.
He smiled to himself unconsciously. His feelings were not his own, so he didn't feel bad.
No wonder Wang Zizai looked at him strangely before.
"Shopkeeper, I heard that the entry voucher for the Bliss Ghost Market must be purchased in Guizhuang?" Zhang Jing asked hurriedly, thinking that he was on a business trip.
Seeing business coming.
The wrinkles on the white-bearded old man's face suddenly piled up, he squeezed out a 'friendly' smile, and replied familiarly: "A voucher will give you ten bronze coins."
"Ten pieces? So expensive!"
Zhang Jing's breath froze after hearing this, and the calmness on his face was broken.
If it had been before, he would never have reacted this way. But now, Zhang Jing already understands the meaning of bronze coins, and naturally understands how high the price of this certificate is.
A thousand years of time, in exchange for a small ghost market certificate!
…
That night.
inside the room.
Zhang Jing woke up faintly and glanced outside the window. The night was falling and everything was silent.
"It's almost midnight."
He stretched out one hand, and a dark golden certificate three inches long and wide suddenly appeared in the palm of his hand. The four characters "Bliss Ghost City" were outlined in blood-red lines on it, which gave people a faint and eerie feeling.
That's right, Zhang Jing still bought the certificate of Bliss Ghost Market.
Although it was very expensive, the bronze coins in his hand were contributed by the three-tailed giant tiger beast with wings, so there was really no feeling of distress when spending them.
Anyway, if you run out of copper coins, you can just go out of the city and find a ferocious beast to beg for alms.
Hunting ferocious beasts may be extremely risky for other Hedao creatures in the Immortal City, but for Zhang Jing, who has the Xunzang Immortal Clothes, it is particularly safe.
At least in his eyes, those ferocious beasts were easier to deal with than those real Taoist creatures.
Get up.
Open the door.
"Congratulations to the master. I have a long life. I am majestic. I hug you from left to right. I am full of descendants. Master..."
Amidst a series of compliments and compliments from the bronze beast head at the gate, Zhang Jing directly urged the Paradise Ghost Market voucher in his hand.
All of a sudden.
The rich night was pushed away.
A stone arch more than ten feet high appeared silently in front of Zhang Jing. It was covered with red lanterns of different shapes. And inside the lantern, you can vaguely see distorted faces filled with greed.
Behind the door is an open stone road, with red lanterns hung one after another on both sides, stretching to the end of sight.
A bit of biting cold air spread from the opposite side of the stone arch. The surrounding temperature dropped rapidly, and the ground was instantly covered with frost.
Huhu——
A cloud of white mist spewed out from Zhang Jing's mouth and nose, and in an instant it condensed into ice shards, falling to the ground and breaking into tiny bits of broken light.
"Good guy, it's really a 'ghost' city."
He sighed with a smile and strode in without any hesitation.
They come, the security. You have already arrived in the Paradise City, why are you still afraid of a mere ghost market?
Tread——
The sound of soft footsteps suddenly echoed on the stone road, and the sound became farther and farther until Zhang Jing's background completely disappeared.
next moment.
The gate of the ghost market quietly disappeared, and even the frost that had previously covered the ground dissipated, as if it had never appeared.
"It's strange. Could it be that the way I flatter you is wrong? Otherwise, how could this gentleman be indifferent?"
The bronze beast head didn't notice the appearance and disappearance of the gate of Paradise Ghost Market at all, and just reflected on himself.
"It's so difficult. Why is it so difficult to get a little reward? Alas, life is getting worse and worse. Life is really not easy. I have to perform at the gate."
It stuck out its long tongue and drooped it at the corner of its mouth, looking lifeless.
at the same time.
Next room.
At some point, the door was gently pushed open, and behind the crack was a small eye.
The little eyes were blinking continuously, with a hint of curiosity and shock in their eyes.
"Hiss—he entered the Paradise Ghost Market so early? The certificate is so expensive, why didn't he save some more copper coins before entering?"
Wang Zizai moved his head away from the crack in the door and couldn't help but exclaimed.
He really couldn't imagine how someone could not value the copper coins of Paradise City so much? It couldn't have been brought by the strong wind.
So there is only one explanation - it was not difficult for this person to obtain copper coins.
And this must be based on strong strength.
In other words, the opponent is most likely a feathered true immortal, or perhaps even stronger!
What he saw in front of him continued to confirm Wang Zizai's guesses in the morning, and also made his thoughts more firm.
However, one doubt always lingered in his mind:
Who is Qingyun? Whether the lobbying in Zhouhe is big or small, it stands to reason that for a true immortal giant who is at least ascension level, there is no reason for him not to know any information.
…
…
the other side.
In the Bliss Ghost City.
Zhang Jing walked forward slowly, while looking at the surrounding scenery curiously.
Perhaps because he arrived early, the Paradise Ghost Market was far less prosperous and lively than he imagined. The streets were empty and deserted, with only a few people walking around in a hurry.
Including Zhang Jing, all the figures were dressed in black robes and cloaks, and their auras were completely concealed, making it difficult to judge their identities and even their races.
Wandered around for another half an hour.
In front of a certain nine-story quaint pavilion.
"Shen Zhen Tower, is it a place where innate divine items are sold?"
Zhang Jing's eyes lit up and he immediately walked inside.
Behind the door, it still has the same Mustard Naxumi style as the fairy city house, and the interior space is extremely spacious.
Behind the counter directly opposite the door.
Seeing someone coming in, a very rich-looking man asked with a smile: "What do you want to buy? Here are all kinds of innate divine objects and even rare and exotic treasures."
"Let me take a look first." Zhang Jing said warmly,
"Guests are light."
"Thank you."
Zhang Jing cupped his hands and glanced towards the store unconsciously, then his expression suddenly became startled.
The whole person suddenly froze on the spot.
There is no other reason than that the scene in front of me is too exaggerated.
In sight.
Dozens of counters
Each counter is like a small world, in which the innate divine objects are piled up like hills, and the brilliant light blooming condenses into a thick treasure cloud, which is dazzling.
Yaoshou, who’s innate divine object should be discussed in terms of piles?
Innate divine objects, even the most common low-level innate divine objects, are also materials for refining top-level immortal treasures and elixirs, and for practicing various great magical powers. All of them are extremely precious.
If someone had told Zhang Jing that the number of innate divine objects could be counted in piles before this, he would never have believed it.
But now, this dream scene is vividly appearing before his eyes.
He walked blankly to one of the counters marked 'Fire Divine Items'.
[Low-level innate divine object Burning Sun and Heart-Scorching Fire, ten bronze coins]
[Inferior innate divine object Zi Yan Glazed Heart, ten bronze coins]
[Low-level innate divine objects, three turns of red obsidian branches, ten bronze coins]
…
…
Zhang Jing looked from counter to counter.
Metal, wood, water, earth, cause and effect, thunder, lake, wind, time, space... one after another innate divine objects continuously impacted his mind.
Zhang Jing was surprised to find that innate divine objects with almost all attributes could be found in them. The only difference was the quantity.
Among them, the largest number belongs to the five-element innate divine objects, while the number of innate divine objects with other attributes will be relatively smaller.
But that’s only relatively speaking!
I do not know how long it has been.
Zhang Jing gradually woke up.
He forcibly suppressed the urge to rob in his heart, walked quickly to the middle-aged man, and asked curiously:
"Shopkeeper, why do you only have low-level innate divine objects here?"
Hear the words.
The middle-aged man laughed and said bluntly: "Sir, this is the ghost market in the outer city. It only sells low-level innate artifacts. If you want to buy higher-level items, you need to go to the ghost market in the inner city."
Inner city again? Zhang Jing was suddenly startled.
Judging from what he learned today, entering the inner city requires the status of a superior citizen, and he is currently an ordinary immortal citizen.
"If you want to be promoted to the upper class - it seems you have to go to the Gods and Demons Tower and the Star Reaching Tower."
Zhang Jing secretly said.
As soon as his thoughts changed, he asked as if to confirm: "Shopkeeper, may I ask if there are high-level innate artifacts with different attributes for sale in the inner city ghost market?"
"Of course there is."
"Thank you!"
After receiving a positive reply, Zhang Jingsui stopped lingering and turned around and walked out.
A clear plan suddenly appeared in his mind:
First, make every effort to completely refine the Xu Zang Immortal Clothes. This matter is related to your own safety and cannot be taken carelessly.
Then upgrade your status to a superior citizen as soon as possible in order to enter the inner city. Then, he will go all out to hunt down the ferocious beasts, accumulate enough bronze coins, and strive to collect all the high-level innate artifacts that can open up the natal world of his body!
If necessary, you can also first refine the five-color cloud flag into an acquired spiritual treasure.
After all, sharpening a knife can make it easier to chop firewood.
Think of this.
Zhang Jing's walking speed speeded up unconsciously.
Ninety-nine years seemed like a long time, but in fact it was fleeting and he couldn't afford to waste it at all.
