74: Chapter 33 Kill!

Southern Border, outside Nanming Volcano, temporary port.

Several people flew down, and the flying boat continued its voyage.

This was a cargo ship, destined to collect minerals in the south and transport those giant rocks that couldn't fit into Storage Pouches.

Over the years, this temporary docking point had also formed a market.

Because it was close to Nanming Volcano, it was named Nanming Market.

Nanming Market only had a single first-grade Spiritual Vein underground, so there were no large Sects stationed here, only a few Qi Condensation Families maintaining order.

After disembarking from the flying boat and arriving at the market, these Cultivators' eyes lit up.

Looking around, the local Cultivators wore simple clothing; male Cultivators only had an apron, or even a grass skirt.

Female Cultivators had an additional bandeau, giving off the distinct impression of a primitive tribe.

Fortunately, they still spoke the Southern Region's Official Dialect, so they weren't incomprehensible.

"Is this the Southern Border? How is it different from a barren land..."

All four felt a wave of speechlessness.

The beautiful fantasies they had before coming, seeing the infatuated expressions of these fellows, also made them speechless.

"Do we look like easy targets?" Liu Lili asked, then looked at the four of them, bedecked in jewels and wearing Dharma robes.

Again, speechless.

"One Spirit Stone!"

"One Spirit Stone!"

A dark-skinned little girl wearing a bandeau came forward to talk.

It seemed they were used to foreign Cultivators, and their prices were extraordinarily high.

In outside markets, in the Southern Region, at most, a single Shattered Spirit Crystal would be enough to get a local guide.

This place was completely a rip-off.

And tragically, Chen Xuan had not inquired about information regarding the Southern Border through the Qingyuan Chamber of Commerce beforehand.

Firstly, the Southern Border had almost no Foundation Establishment experts, and venomous insects were everywhere. Almost no Cultivators lived long-term in such a toxic Miasma-filled place, as it was harmful to cultivation.

Most who went were laborers, and the impression was that it was a desolate wilderness.

Even if they inquired, they would probably only get superficial information, as this place wasn't even considered civilized.

Chen Xuan let out two breaths, good!

Just like how he treated foreign children in his previous life, he said in a serious tone: "No Spirit Stones!"

These 'monkey kids' still surrounded Chen Xuan, showing no signs of backing down.

The others' expressions also turned somewhat hostile.

No, do people from the barren lands not follow rules?

Chen Xuan and the other three immediately narrowed their eyes, preparing to act.

After all, dignity only exists within the Sword Light of a longsword.

Just as Chen Xuan and the others took flight, preparing to draw their swords, an old man in a long robe slowly emerged.

As soon as he appeared, his eyes lit up. He scolded the crowd in a local dialect that the four couldn't understand, then spoke in the official dialect:

"So it's the esteemed Cultivators from the Liuyang Sword Sect. These uncivilized locals are ignorant; please follow this old man."

"Presumably, you all are here for the Legacy of the Shadowless Sword. Ever since the last major eruption of Nanming Volcano, the giant stone of the Shadowless Sword Legacy has appeared."

The old man said, pointing towards the Nanming Volcano behind him.

Looking at the mountain, it seemed close but was far. This place was at least a hundred li away from the vast, continuous volcanic range.

Because there was a lot of Miasma, the flying boat dropped them off at the market on the outskirts.

"You, sir, certainly know how to speak." Liu Lili sheathed her sword upon seeing this.

She followed him into a small room.

Chen Xuan and the other two remained somewhat vigilant.

These fellows didn't seem like normal people; they were more like Rogue Cultivators.

Chen Xuan naturally had to be on guard to avoid capsizing in a ditch.

Cultivators of the Southern Border control insects and poisons.

Regarding these two points, Chen Xuan and the others had naturally already made preparations.

They just hadn't expected no conflict to erupt. In that situation just now, being able to resist drawing their swords was already a tremendous psychological struggle.

Entering the small house, rows of skulls hung on the walls, and some animal furs were drying nearby, making their brains feel instantly refreshed.

In a place like this, it was indeed impossible to harbor any expectations.

"Many Cultivators have already gone to comprehend the Legacy of the Shadowless Sword. If you are willing to pay a small price, I can provide you with stable intelligence."

The old man looked at Liu Lili with piercing eyes.

Liu Lili looked at the old man, then turned to look at the three.

Chen Xuan nodded.

Cultivation often resembled an intelligence war.

Chen Xuan knew this well.

Moreover, in a little while, it would be tomorrow.

When the time came, a divination would make it clear!

"Alright, what's your price?" Liu Lili asked.

The old man held up five fingers.

"How much?" Liu Lili frowned.

"The little girl just asked for one Spirit Stone, but I'm not a little girl. I want five Spirit Stones," the old man chuckled.

Liu Lili, without another word, took out five Spirit Stones.

The old man handed over a Jade Slip.

Chen Xuan and the others read it carefully.

This Shadowless Sword Legacy was actually a giant stone, located on Nanming Volcano, very easy to identify.

No wonder it was given so easily.

When they arrived at Nanming Volcano, they would be able to see it at a glance.

Everyone was somewhat speechless for a moment.

However, it also mentioned some places with dense fire attribute Qi, explicitly stating that there might be Heaven And Earth Treasures and also Yao Beasts guarding them, requiring caution.

"Let's go." Chen Xuan and the others no longer lingered and flew away from Nanming Market.

Just after Chen Xuan and the others left, a masked man appeared where they had just stood.

He chuckled sinisterly: "The Sword Sect's blood food is quite good."

"You old man did well, bringing so many foreign Cultivators to their deaths. Your tribe will live a little longer because of you."

"Thank you, sir." The old man knelt, shedding tears of gratitude.

...

Nanming Volcano was a large volcanic cluster, with the summit of the central volcano perpetually covered in snow.

Chen Xuan and his group flew for half an hour, accurately locating the stone tablet in the sky.

Such a Legacy that allowed comprehension of Sword Dao Divine Abilities could attract crowds even from afar.

It seemed they were receiving the Legacy.

"Mu Ting, what do you think?"

"The Shadowless Sword is an extremely powerful Sword Dao technique. The sword strikes are shadowless, and the killing is invisible, almost reaching perfection.

If one doesn't have Divine Sense to capture it at any time, this method would probably be invincible under heaven."

Liu Lili nodded and said: "Even if this method enters the Divine Ability level, it is not invincible. There has never been an unbreakable technique in the world, especially some powerful Daoist Magic. The first time it is cast, no one knows, but the second time it is cast, there are already countermeasures."

Xiao Ye and Chen Xuan both nodded.

The group rapidly approached.

That sharp intent also became increasingly fierce and apparent.

It was indeed a Sword Dao Legacy; even from such a distance, one could feel that majestic Sword Intent.

And for Chen Xuan and Xiao Muting, who had comprehended Sword Light Differentiation, it was even more obvious.

Just as the group descended, someone below suddenly said, "Hmm?"

Chen Xuan's eyes narrowed slightly: "Hmm!"

A group of Disciples from minor Sects, dressed in various colored robes, immediately spoke up: "Sirs, everything has a first come, first served rule. You, queue up."

Xiao Muting's eyes were indifferent, and his tone was cold: "Get lost, or die!"

"Hmph! Where did this ant come from?" The Cultivator's face darkened; the plot wasn't going according to his plan.

"Whoosh!" The Sword Nurturing Gourd's Sword Light flashed!

Cultivating for merely a dozen years, one can still take a head with a Flying Sword.

In just one encounter, Xiao Muting cut down this Cultivator.

A wisp of dark Devilish Qi sizzled.

A Devil Cultivator.

Xiao Muting was expressionless, as if he had already anticipated it.

And Chen Xuan smiled, putting away the three heavenly secret jade slips in front of him.

Today's fortune: Great auspiciousness!

A good day for killing!
