404: Chapter 404 Looting the Black Market

"Fellow Daoist, spare our lives! We have no grievances between us, please let us go."

"It was all forced by that Old Man Yinshan, it has nothing to do with us!" All eight Peak Nascent Soul Stage experts knelt on the ground, trembling.

Xiao Chen just took a glance and picked out the four whose good-evil values were negative: Lu Xingtian, Xuan Kongzi, Bao Yunfan, and Xue Haoyang!

After erasing their Souls, he also collected their bodies into the System Space.

As for the other four, Xiao Chen only kept Feng Xier; after all, there was still a piece of information he needed to get from her.

As for the remaining three, after erasing all their memories of the Yinshan Black Market, he casually tossed them a hundred thousand miles away.

After all, there was no enmity, and Xiao Chen was not a heinous person. Since they hadn't assisted Old Man Yinshan, he would spare their lives!

Having done all this, Xiao Chen flew out of the nine-story Pavilion. A massive void palm descended from the sky, sucking all the Cultivators within the Black Market Secret Realm into its grasp.

"Ah..."

Terrified screams echoed through the heavens and earth.

These were all lackeys of the Yinshan Black Market, including the Black and White Twin Fiends. Since he was doing this, he had to be thorough; today, he had to uproot them completely!

After putting all the qiankun rings and the treasures in the Pavilion—including the Cultivation Technique area, Formation area, Medicinal Pill area, Puppet area, and so on—into the System Space.

With another clench of his palm, the hundreds of Yinshan Black Market Cultivators all exploded into blood mist.

At the last moment, Xiao Chen held Su Lianyin and Feng Xier, vanished into a void crack, and reappeared outside the Black Market Secret Realm.

With a backhand strike, he completely destroyed the entire Black Market Secret Realm.

As that world-destroying palm fell, the ground instantly collapsed into a giant pit, the void shattered, and the Laws burned wildly.

Su Lianyin and Feng Xier in his arms turned pale with fright; it was a scene they had never even seen in their dreams.

"Husband, you're still holding onto that hussy!" Shadow Moon's annoyed Soul Sound rang out.

Xiao Chen gave an embarrassed smile and quickly let go of the waists he was holding. "I only did it to get information about the yin-yang blood bone ginseng."

"I think you just like the hussies!"

Shadow Moon said indignantly, "Once I have a Physical Body, I'll cling to you every day and see what excuses you can find then!"

"Ahem, ahem..."

Xiao Chen coughed a few times, wondering why this Little Vixen was so hostile toward her.

Could it be because they're both fox spirits?

He then looked at Feng Xier beside him and asked:

"Fellow Daoist Feng, I wonder what conditions you were talking about?"

"Ah?"

Feng Xier snapped out of it, her face still slightly pale as she waved her hands. "No conditions, no conditions. I was just joking with Fellow Daoist Xiao before."

At this moment, she was completely terrified. How could she dare to mention such conditions to Xiao Chen? She only wanted to leave this demon god as quickly as possible.

"Really none?"

Xiao Chen showed a probing look. She definitely had conditions before, but seeing how powerful he was now, she didn't dare mention them at all.

"Really none!"

Feng Xier shook her head vigorously. "That yin-yang blood bone ginseng once appeared in the Wild Ancient Marsh of the Southern Region Continent. Someone once personally witnessed a transformed yin-yang blood bone ginseng."

Wild Ancient Marsh!

This was the only death Forbidden Ground on the Cangxuan Continent. It had swallowed countless Nascent Soul Cultivators, and only Spirit Transformation Stage Cultivators in teams could barely enter and leave.

But the opportunities within were also incredibly tempting, so many Soul Transformation old monsters would find ways to enter before their lives ended, seeking a glimmer of hope.

Xiao Chen was startled; he didn't expect it to be the same place where the golden phoenix silk-winding fruit and longevity fruit were produced!

It seems I must find time to go there, dig up the two fruit trees, and transplant them into the System Space. That way, I can achieve spiritual fruit freedom!

Jie jie jie... I'm a damn Genius!

"You said that yin-yang blood bone ginseng has already transformed?"

"Mhm."

"If it has already transformed, how would anyone know it's the yin-yang blood bone ginseng?"

"The yin-yang blood bone ginseng is born in mountains of corpses and seas of blood. It has a very distinct characteristic: even after transforming, it still carries a heavy blood aura and a red glow."

"I see."

"Fellow Daoist Xiao, if there's nothing else, may I leave?"

"Of course you can, but no one can know what happened here. I need to erase all your memories of this place."

Feng Xier's Soul trembled. After hesitating for a moment, she said despondently, "I understand. Please begin."

Xiao Chen no longer hesitated. With a thought, a strand of Divine Sense invaded her Sea of Consciousness and erased all memories related to the Yinshan Black Market.

After finishing this, Xiao Chen held Su Lianyin's small hand and quietly distanced himself, leaving a dazed Feng Xier standing there.

"Where are you taking me?" Su Lianyin asked nervously.

Xiao Chen did not answer.

Just then, the Vajra Holy Emissary flew over from ahead. "Young Master, are we returning to the Eastern Region Continent now or going directly to the Central Continent?"

"Disperse all your intelligence personnel and spread the word that Old Man Yinshan set a trap and killed the five Spirit Transformation Stage Cultivators from the Nine Heavens Sword Pavilion, Xuanming Cult, Tianchan Sect, Divine Talisman Sect, and Wanxiang Temple, took all the treasures, and fled to Canglan Star!"

The name Canglan Star was a cultivation planet Xiao Chen had seen in True Lord Yuntian's Mirror of Intention, where Void Bandits frequently pillaged.

"This..." The Vajra Holy Emissary showed a look of disbelief. Every word from Xiao Chen was like a thunderclap to him!

"No need to ask more. Spread this news as quickly and as widely as possible. We will meet in the Central Continent later!"

"Yes, Young Master!"

"By the way, one more thing. Look into news from the Phantom Demon Sea to see if a Soul Transformation Stage Purple Gold Thunder Roc has fallen recently!"

Xiao Chen had previously learned that the Phantom Demon Sea has seven great Spirit Transformation Stage Cultivators. If the Purple Gold Thunder Roc really came from the Phantom Demon Sea, it must be one of them.

"Understood."

The Vajra Holy Emissary bowed and turned to fly away.

Su Lianyin watched this scene with shock. Even a Nascent Soul Cultivator from the Central Continent's Hidden Clan, the Gangli Clan, had become his servant!

Just then, a snowy shadow quietly flashed through the distant clouds.

Xiao Chen's figure shot out. Stepping on the Purple Thunder Absolute Shadow, he quickly passed through layers of clouds and mist, but after investigating, he still found nothing.

Among the surging clouds, only a cold aura remained.

"Who could it be?"

Xiao Chen wondered suspiciously. To escape his Divine Thought lock, it must be either a Spirit Transformation Stage Cultivator or an Innate Divine Body.

Su Lianyin caught up and asked in a low voice, "What's wrong?"

"Nothing. I'll take you somewhere first."

"Where?"

"Don't resist my Divine Thought guidance."

Xiao Chen directly released his Divine Thought, guiding her Divine Sense, and pulled her into the System Space in an instant.

Looking at the strange world before her, which was like a fairyland, Su Lianyin asked in confusion:

"Is this... a Secret Realm?"
