147: Auction List

Could it be that the Nether Ghost Market is the lair of Ghost Without Way?

Gu Changan rubbed his chin, noncommittally.

He then recalled the situation at the time, with a person wearing a bamboo hat standing on the stage to trade.

Could it be that the one presiding over the trade on stage back then was the True Disciple, Ghost Without Way?

But everyone was disguised at the time, so he hadn't recognized him!

It seems the heavens are on his side!

Ghost Without Way probably doesn't have a soul defense magical artifact anymore!

After all, his Master didn't have one either, and was so easily killed by him!

However, Ghost Without Way still needs to be killed; what if he does have one?

Ghost Without Way, oh, Ghost Without Way!

Unexpectedly, it's such a coincidence; it took no effort at all!

He would just wait for him to leave to intercept and kill him!

But then he thought, he couldn't find him, could he?

In such a large Nether Ghost Market, where could he run into him?

This was truly a dilemma!

Since he couldn't find him, he would just have to lure him out!

He believed that Ghost Without Way would definitely attend the Nether Ghost Market auction at the beginning of next month.

When the time comes, he would act more aggressive and make more enemies.

And then wipe them all out at once!

Gu Changan took a sip of wine, then looked at the Middle-aged Female Cultivator and the Fairy beside her.

The Middle-aged Female Cultivator was clearly at the Golden Core Stage, while the Fairy beside her was at the Foundation Establishment Early-stage.

Could it be that these two were also here to attend the Nether Ghost Market auction?

Is the Treasure Pavilion auction so attractive?

Or is there some important auction item that he doesn't know about!

It seems he should find a Donor to ask about it later!

Gu Changan waited until the Golden Core female cultivator had left before leisurely leaving the restaurant.

Then, in the area where Loose Cultivators set up stalls at the foot of the mountain, he found a Donor to start making inquiries.

"I've been in seclusion for a few months; has anything major happened in the Nether Ghost Market recently?"

This Donor was a bit shy and didn't look very remarkable; in fact, he was just a half-grown kid!

His cultivation was only at the 2nd level of Qi Refining!

The half-grown kid just lowered his head: "Replying to Senior!"

"There hasn't been anything major, if you have to say there is, it's that a Golden Core Stage Cultivator died yesterday!"

Gu Changan casually handed him 10 Spirit Stones: "Oh? Tell me in detail!"

The half-grown kid started to explain, but most of the information was already known.

Upon hearing the end, Gu Changan raised a question: "That ghost cultivator, the True Disciple Ghost Without Way!"

"Has he not thought about avenging his Master?"

The half-grown kid shook his head: "I don't know!"

"However, this is his lair!"

"The True Disciple Ghost Without Way grew up here and lived with his Master in the Nether Ghost Market!"

"Whether he will seek revenge or not, I don't know!"

"But it is said that he is cultivating in an Immortal Cave on the Ghost Cultivator Mountain Peak."

"Every day, he asks whether there are any traces of that Foundation Establishment Cultivator!"

Gu Changan nodded: "It seems he still intends to take revenge!"

He was thinking to himself whether he should release his own information to lure him over?

Then he thought better of it; what if he ended up luring a whole bunch of Golden Core Cultivators over? Wouldn't that be asking for trouble?

After all, he had the seeds of the ghost soul heart-locking grass in his hands!

Just think, yesterday at the trading fair, there were so many Golden Core Cultivators there to trade.

In the end, it benefited him!

If he let the news out, a pack of hungry wolves might come.

It seems he can only make a move through the Treasure Pavilion auction.

Subsequently, Gu Changan asked again: "Are there any channels for fencing stolen goods here?"

"The kind involving huge amounts!"

The half-grown kid thought for a moment: "The biggest one belongs to the Treasure Pavilion shops."

"Next are the shops on the Loose Cultivator Mountain Peak that have Golden Core Cultivators backing them."

"The same goes for the Ghost Cultivator Mountain Peak!"

Gu Changan nodded: "Then, have there been any cases of people snatching treasures here before?"

The half-grown kid was stunned; he hadn't expected Gu Changan to ask that.

For a moment of shock, he still subconsciously nodded.

Gu Changan became curious and then handed him another 10 Spirit Stones.

"Tell me specifically!"

The half-grown kid swallowed his saliva and looked left and right.

"I'm a bit afraid to say it!"

"If others find out, I'll lose my life!"

Gu Changan gave him another 10 Spirit Stones and comforted him: "Since it happened, you certainly aren't the only one who knows!"

"If I ask others, it will be the same!"

"Besides, who would come specifically to kill you because of this?"

"Is an ant like you worth them taking action?"

This last sentence of Gu Changan seemed to move the other party.

The half-grown kid leaned in and whispered: "It has happened in every area!"

This time, Gu Changan was greatly surprised!

"It has happened on all three peaks?"

The half-grown kid shrank back and nodded seriously: "I haven't said anything!"

Gu Changan's heart had cooled significantly; he had previously thought that the upper echelons of the Nether Ghost Market would still have some face.

But now it seems, they have absolutely no shame!

Well, isn't the world of cultivation just a world where the strong prey on the weak?

Even in the Mortal world of his previous life, it was like this; if you want to survive, you have to eat people!

You have to snatch resources and snatch all kinds of things!

By the time you finally wake up, you are already past middle age.

By then, it's all too late!

Gu Changan felt a bit lucky that he had the experience of his previous life.

Then he thought, it seems he needs to be careful when he goes to the Treasure Pavilion to trade.

What if someone tries to rob him again?

He might not necessarily be able to escape!

Collecting his thoughts, Gu Changan then asked another question: "Do you know the auction list for the Treasure Pavilion auction?"

This time, the half-grown kid nodded directly.

"Do you want it, Senior?"

"Ten Spirit Stones per copy!"

As he said this, he took out a Jade Slip from his Storage Pouch.

Gu Changan chuckled, then handed the other party 10 Spirit Stones, put away the Jade Slip, and turned to leave.

It seems he needs to make some preparations before going to the Treasure Pavilion to trade.

At least he needs to prepare an escape route!

After Gu Changan returned to the Inn, he began to check the contents of the Jade Slip.

The content in the Jade Slip wasn't much, probably about 40 items!

And it was noted at the back that there was no information on the last 10 auction items; they could only be confirmed by attending in person!

It seems this is to leave some suspense for the auction.

Otherwise, if the last 10 auction items weren't attractive, who would come?

But these 40 items were also commendable.

Among them, 35 were treasures for the Foundation Establishment Stage, including Cultivation Techniques, Medicinal Pills, Magical Artifacts, Puppets, blood, soul, etc., everything one could think of on the market.

However, none of these were what Gu Changan needed right now.

Gu Changan looked directly at the last 5 items.

The three Golden Core Stage Magic Treasures were standard: a long spear, a Flying Sword, and a long saber.

The last two items: one was a 100-year-old Wuji Grass.

Gu Changan didn't know what it was for, and couldn't be bothered to think about it.

One was a 5-jin piece of Dragon Saliva Stone!

What is this for?

Could it be, Gu Changan instantly thought of the crimson flame dragon marrow fruit.

This main ingredient for the core formation pill needs to be planted next to something nourished by Dragon Qi.
