Chapter 361 Tongyou City
After getting the Daoyuan Pearl, Lin Qianxing was not in a hurry to use it.
He also wanted to find an accessory for the Daoyuan Pearl.
Only when the two things are combined can they function better.
Lin Qianxing took a step forward, and his figure flashed, appearing thousands of miles away. Then he took another step, and he was thousands of miles away again.
As Lin Qianxing's figure continued to flash in the air, not long after, he had arrived at the edge of a magnificent human city.
Tongyou City.
An ancient human city that has been built for tens of thousands of years.
It was built near a historic site called Ghost Ridge, hence its name.
There are hundreds of millions of human beings living in it, which is comparable to a country.
The city is ruled by a fifth-level powerful man whose strength is so powerful that he is ranked among the best in the entire Lingyuan Heaven.
He was supposed to ascend to the upper world, but for some reason he was forced to stay here.
No one knows the specific reason.
Inside Mengduo Auction House.
Each cherished item was lifted up one by one by the delicate-looking auction ladies, and the auctioneer bid.
"The pair of wings of the young Feather Tribe contain a strong essence of wind. They are the best items for both food and weapon refining."
A pair of blue wings were placed on the stand, causing countless bidders to show some expressions of interest.
"Today's Yu tribe is already a rare commodity. I haven't seen it for a long time. I didn't expect to see it again today."
"No matter how much money you have, you have to buy it."
"Ten thousand purple spirit coins."
"Thirteen thousand"
In the corner, Lin Qianxing watched this scene expressionlessly, without much emotion.
For some human races, they will eat not only the feathers of the Yu tribe, but also the tail meat of the sharks and the guts of the scale men.
Moreover, the way of eating is very perverted, with the victim tied up and eaten alive, and watching them struggle while eating.
Humans are not inherently perverted.
The same is true for all intelligent races.
When you stand in a strong position, higher up the food chain, and have no moral and legal constraints, you will naturally magnify the dark side of your heart infinitely.
But it is indeed not civilized to do so.
After all, they are also intelligent beings. It is also a sign of respect for oneself to replenish the food before eating.
Midway through the auction, the auctioneer took out a map.
"The map of Ghost Ridge. This is a new road that has been opened up. It can reach as far as four thousand miles. The ghost mines and dangerous areas along the way are marked. The seller has signed a contract with me. It will only be sold once and will not be sold again in the future.
I will go there again. Once you get it, this road will be your private mining road. The starting price is one thousand purple spirit coins."
"Four thousand miles? Who can go that far?"
"Is it possible that it has been hollowed out? He just sold the map to make more money?"
"It's also very valuable if it's hollowed out. Who can enter the place three thousand miles away except those fourth-level monks? This road has been opened up, making it much safer to walk."
During the discussion, Lin Qianxing silently raised a sign.
"Two thousand purple spirit coins once." the auctioneer said.
"I will pay you three thousand purple spirit coins." A person said.
"Three thousand purple spirit coins once."
Lin Qianxing raised the sign again.
"Four thousand purple spirit coins once."
"Five thousand purple spirit coins!"
Lin Qianxing held up the sign without changing his expression.
"Six thousand purple spirit coins"
Not long after, the price soared to 10,000 Ziling coins.
At this time, there was only one person left bidding against Lin Qianxing.
The other party seems determined to win.
When Lin Qianxing reached 15,000, he glanced at the opponent and stopped raising his card.
Because he didn't have half a purple spirit coin in his pocket, and he knew that if he raised his cards again, the other party wouldn't follow.
"Sixteen thousand purple spirit coins once, twice, three times. Congratulations to this young master for getting this map of Ghost Ridge!!" the auctioneer said.
Time passed and the auction soon came to an end.
All the bidders got up and prepared to leave.
As soon as Lin Qianxing walked to the door, a voice came.
"Your Excellency in black in front of you, please stay."
Hearing the sound, Lin Qianxing stopped and looked back.
It's the person who took the map before.
He was a young man who looked to be about 20 years old. He was about 1.7 meters tall and had ordinary facial features. What was noteworthy was that his eyes were not as innocent as his apparent age, but full of vicissitudes of life.
"What's the matter?" Lin Qianxing asked.
"I am Shang Chen, from Luoyu District, Tongyou City." Shang Chen introduced himself first, and then said to Lin Qianxing: "May I ask your name, sir?"
"Lin Kong." Lin Qianxing said.
"Mr. Lin is bidding on the map because he plans to go to Ghost Ridge to collect Ghost Stones, right?" Shang Chen asked.
"What do you mean?" Lin Qianxing asked.
"I can't use this map alone. I think your aura is very powerful. If I can travel with you, I will be more confident." Shang Chen said.
"I won't protect you from being a burden." Lin Qianxing said.
"I am not talented, but I am a third-level waterbending master." Shang Chen said.
"When will we set off?" Lin Qianxing nodded.
"Three days later, Chenshi will be at the east gate of Tongyou City. In addition to sir, I will also find some other helpers," Shang Chen said.
"Is there anyone else? If we find something, how will we divide it up?" Lin Qianxing asked again.
"Of course whoever finds it first will belong to it," Shang Chen said.
"That's just relying on strength? Then why bother looking for others?" Lin Qianxing pretended to be dissatisfied.
"No, no, I will find a contract master to make a contract, so the distribution is actually based on luck." Shang Chen explained.
Lin Qianxing nodded slightly and said, "Okay, see you in three days."
After saying that, Lin Qianxing turned around and left.
Behind Lin Qianxing, Shang Chen looked thoughtful.
He had no intention of inviting Lin Qianxing originally, but when the two were competing for the map, he accidentally glanced at Lin Qianxing using Tao skills to get his specific information.
But what surprised him was that even his third-level [Appraisal Master] could not clearly see Lin Qianxing's specific energy level and information.
This can only mean one thing, Lin Qianxing is either at the fourth level, or it means that he has some powerful trump card that can hide his aura.
Shang Chen was lacking powerful helpers, so the appearance of Lin Qianxing naturally made him overjoyed. Moreover, Lin Qianxing seemed to be interested in exploring Ghost Ridge, so he quickly came to invite Lin Qianxing.
And Lin Qianxing agreed, and everything went smoothly.
But the only thing that feels a little wrong about Shang Chen is that everything seems to be a bit too coincidental?
Shang Chen didn't think too much about this problem. There were so many coincidences. The fact that he met Lin Qianxing could only mean that God was helping him.
Three days passed in a blink of an eye.
The east gate of Tongyou City.
In front of a small flying boat, Lin Qianxing and Shang Chen met again.
Behind Shang Chen, there were two men and one woman.
The woman was wearing a light green dress and looked to be about 25 or 26 years old. She was not equipped with any weapons other than a sword.
