Chapter 300, Parting
Time passed, and half a year passed in a blink of an eye. In the past half a year, Sakura's cultivation has been on the right track, and under Li Xiao's guidance, her strength has been equivalent to the strength of the second layer of Qi training. Originally, her cultivation speed would be faster, but Li Xiao asked her to lay a solid foundation and not rush to improve her strength, so she suppressed it.
While instructing Sakura to practice, Li Xiao's own strength is also recovering rapidly. After continuous cleaning, on the third day, Li Xiao had already cleared all the demonic qi in his body. In the time that followed, he began to reshape his new body. With his realm, this body is relatively too weak to withstand the energy in his body, so if he wants to transfer all his energy into the corresponding dantian of this body, he must raise the strength of the tendons, the dantian, and even the physical body to the current level. Before that, he could only seal most of his energy.
Restating the body is a very slow process, which is equivalent to recultivation, but Li Xiao's realm is there, and the speed is naturally many times faster than heavy cultivation. Coupled with the forcible input of his original energy, he could also speed up his cultivation. In just half a year, he had raised his physical strength back to the point of the early stage of the Third Realm. When he reached this realm, Li Xiao didn't plan to stay any longer, and it would take at least more than a year to improve to the fourth realm.
And all he wants to do now is to go into the city and buy a map, preferably a magic weapon with a shadow aura, or buy some materials to refine it himself. Therefore, as long as you can hide your own aura and not be easily discovered by monks below the third level. With his ability to advance to the third realm in all three systems at this time, coupled with his powerful divine sense, he deliberately hidden, as long as he didn't encounter a monk in the fourth realm, there would be no problem.
was ready, and Li Xiao did not delay any longer. Since she decided to leave, Sakura naturally couldn't stay anymore and had to be sent back. Parting is painful, especially for Sakura, a little girl who is just five years old, and it is even more reluctant to leave Li Xiao, who is like a teacher and a big brother.
After Li Xiao sent Sakura to the entrance of the village, he explained to her, and then gave her two jade slips, one of which recorded the problems in cultivation and Li Xiao's experience. The other one records some of Li Xiao's knowledge of refining formations, among which there is also a cooking ceremony, which Li Xiao specially left for Sakura. After getting along for so long, Li Xiao has already seen that although Sakura is still young, she is an unscrupulous foodie. Instead of looking around for good food, let her learn it herself.
For such a cute and sensible girl as Sakura, Li Xiao still likes it very much. Her appearance made Li Xiao can't help but have a good idea of having a daughter in the future, which is a relatively alternative idea in their patriarchal era.
After separating from Sakura, Li Xiao returned to a state of being alone again, which made him fight alone again. For him, it makes it easier for him to move. Leaving the small village, Li Xiao did not go straight to the big city, but flew towards the mountain range where he appeared. When he left the towering mountain again three days later, his space bag was visibly much more swollen than before.
As the largest city within a radius of thousands of miles, Daredevil City can be regarded as a top city even within the jurisdiction of the Qiong Demon General. The city has a permanent population of 100,000 and a floating population of up to 200,000. Even in Li Xiao's hometown, Zhao Guo is considered a large city. And the demon monk that Li Xiao took away lived in this city, but now the friends of the original owner of this body must not recognize him when they see him. Because at this time, in addition to maintaining the black skin of this demon clan and the horns on his head, Li Xiao has changed his original appearance in terms of appearance.
After entering the city, Li Xiao directly followed the place recorded in the captured memory and came to a bustling street. This is a corner of the trading market dedicated to demon monks and heavenly demons.
Li Xiao followed this connection until he reached the third fork in the road before stopping, and in front of him was a six-story house. There are only a few houses of this height in the entire street. This building called the Treasure Pavilion is one of the four largest trading houses in the entire territory under the jurisdiction of the Qiong Demon General, and the reason why these four trading houses are so powerful is because they have the support of the Qiong Demon General behind them, so almost no one dares to touch them.
At the entrance of the Treasure Pavilion, two rows of young women dressed in bewitching clothes affectionately introduced the guests to the visitors. Don't think about it just because they are dressed very charmingly, if they have the strength and financial resources, then these women can buy them back directly. But if you don't have strength and no wealth, it's better not to provoke. Each of these beautiful ladies has a certain amount of cultivation, and the worst ones have reached the seventh level or above of Qi training. And if you provoke the Treasure Pavilion, you don't have to bear any responsibility for being killed.
Li Xiao glanced twice and walked directly inside. The strength he showed at this time was a mid-foundation building powerhouse, and as for why he didn't show the strength of the third realm, this also had his considerations. These beauties at the door will eventually become someone else's furnace or sacrifice, of course, if you are lucky, you can find someone to buy them, and they may ask for this fate. Li Xiao showed mediocre strength, but he didn't want them to be entangled, so as not to cause trouble.
Sure enough, as soon as he got closer, one of them, a woman in her twenties, who looked a little good-looking, had a hot body, and immediately walked up. It's just that he didn't flatter some powerful people like he did, deliberately leaning closer with his body, and so on, but asked very politely: "What kind of service does this senior need?" Do you want to buy magic weapons, pills, talisman formations, or sacrifices?"
Li Xiao shook his head and said, "I'm here to sell materials." ”
Seeing that Li Xiao's expression was very cold, ignoring her beauty and figure, the woman was a little frustrated. However, she didn't say much, just made a gesture of please, and then walked in front to lead the way.
The first floor of the Treasure Pavilion is the hall, and except for the staircase in the middle and the counters around it, the rest of the place is almost full of people, and it is a bit troublesome to even walk through it, only the staircase is slightly empty. Although it is not yet up to the second floor, the signs of the first floor alone show how good business is here. Although there are a lot of things on the first level, most of them are the things of the monks of the first and second realms, and the people on the first level are basically the first and second realms.
The woman took Li Xiao directly to the row of counters on the first floor, and then said lightly: "This is the place where materials are sold, what materials do you have to take out all the materials, the appraisers here are familiar with almost all the first- and second-order materials, and they can give you the most satisfactory price." ”
Li Xiao frowned and said, "I want to go to the second floor, the appraisers here may not be able to recognize my materials." ”
Li Xiao's words were not loud, but they were still heard by the appraisal uncle in front of him, who looked to be forty or fifty years old. After hearing this, his face instantly became unhappy, and he sneered: "Oh? What are you doing here? I don't believe that there are any first- and second-order materials that I don't know." After listening to Li Xiao's words, even the rebellious woman was a little scoffed. has an expression that Li Xiao is a hillbilly and treats everything as a baby.
Seeing their expressions, Li Xiao frowned, and didn't say much, just flipping his hand, there were three more things on the appraisal table. The first thing was a silver-gray hide, cut half a foot in size, covered with fine, triangular scales. The second is an eyeball with a purple demonic pupil with two pupils, one horizontal and one vertical. The third is a pair of black horns with dense silver threads. The three items all exuded a faint coercion, although this coercion was not as good as the eleventh or twelfth in front of him, but it could also be seen that these three foreign things were part of the three seventh- and eighth-level demon beasts.
Seeing Li Xiao take out something, the appraiser who was ready to taunt Li Xiao at first paused for a moment when he saw the three items, then frowned, looked through it carefully, and then the look on his face began to gradually become a little unnatural. Seeing his expression, the woman who was waiting for this kid who ignored her beauty to be ridiculed was slightly stunned, and then thought of something in an instant, and her attitude immediately changed dramatically. To be a shopping guide here, you still have to have the necessary ability to observe words and colors, otherwise you will already become someone else's sacrifice or a furnace. Although I don't know what the three things on the table are, I can guess from the appraiser's expression that they must not be mortal.
After a while, the appraiser finished inspecting, took a deep breath, and then said: "If the guess below is correct, this animal skin should be the outer skin of the Kaishan beast, as for which part it is, it is unknown below." And the eyeball should be the third eye of the resentful turtle. And these horns should be the horns of an adult deer tiger. I don't know if I'm guessing right?"
Li Xiao was not surprised to be guessed by the other party, after all, as an appraiser, he is naturally knowledgeable. In response to Yu Ta's question, Li Xiao nodded in affirmation.
Seeing this, the appraiser turned his head to the woman beside Li Xiao and said, "Xiao Jie, you take this fellow Daoist to the second floor, I can't make an accurate estimate of his things here." A good student entertains this Taoist friend, and he must not be lazy. ”
The woman nodded, made a gesture of invitation to Li Xiao with a smile, and then said: "Seniors, please, please forgive me for my previous neglect." "There has been a big change in attitude, and she also knows about the three demon beasts that the appraiser said, each of which is a seventh-level demon beast.
Li Xiao shook his head, indicating that he didn't care, and then followed the woman upstairs.
