Chapter 210, Demon Cloud City
readx;
When the cold candle walked out of the forest, Xingchen suddenly looked underground, and saw a stone on the ground, the stone was only the size of a thumb, and the whole body was purple and shining.
Zhuge Liuyun, who was standing next to him, took the stone, looked at it carefully and said with a smile: "Brother Xingchen, this is that thing, this stone is called a demon spirit stone, but because there is no aura in this demon world, the monsters are looking for this stone to assist in cultivation, and this stone point was accidentally left by the monster just now."

"But this stone is a treasure to the youkai, but it is useless to us!" Xingchen said with a sigh as he stared at the stone.
Zhuge Liuyun hugged it to his chest and said with a smile: "Who said that this thing is useless to us, this can be exchanged for money! This thing is rarer than gems in the demon world, if you take him to Demon Cloud City and sell it, you will definitely be able to exchange it for a lot of money, but ......" Zhuge Liuyun stopped halfway through his words.
"But what, say it quickly!" urged Xingchen, he didn't like to swallow back in the middle of a sentence.
"But if the mana cultivation is too low, this thing will not only not be sold for money, but will also lead to death, if you don't believe it, you can try it!" Zhuge Liuyun smiled slightly, staring at the demon spirit stone and said.
"Can you take me to that Demon Cloud City, I don't know how to get there in that Demon Cloud City!" Xingchen bowed his hand to Zhuge Liuyun and pleaded.
Zhuge Liuyun laughed: "If you change to another place, I'm really unfamiliar with it, this Demon Cloud City is too familiar, but in that Demon Cloud City, you can't appear as a demon subduer, if you enter the city as a demon subduer, you will definitely be hacked to death by those monsters, and if you want to find a person who collects the corpse, you can't find it!"
Xingchen looked at Zhuge Liuyun: "Is there any danger in your outfit?"
"Of course there is danger, just wait for me to change!" After that, he put his two fingers on his chest, closed his eyes, recited a few words, and said: "Change!"
I saw a light flash on Zhuge Liuyun's body, two horns grew on his head, and his ears became pointy, so where he still looked at the human being, it was clearly a monster, although it was a monster, but it was a monster who was born extremely handsome.
Xingchen stared at Zhuge Liuyun and asked in surprise, "Could it be that Brother Zhuge has cultivated the method of change?"
Zhuge Liuyun shook his head and said, "No, but I have this thing." As he spoke, he spread his hands and measured out a leaf, which was very light and soft, but as if it had just been plucked, very green and bright.
"What kind of leaf is this, and what does it do?" asked Xingchen, staring at the leaf.
Zhuge Liuyun smiled slightly, and said mysteriously: "This is not a leaf, this is the feather of the psychic bird, as long as you get this feather, you can transform into a demon form, but this feather can only be used once, do you want to transform Brother Xingchen, I still have a few transformation feathers here." β
Xingchen came to the spirit, and grinned: "Yes, of course, can you make me a little more handsome?"
"It's not up to me to decide whether this becomes handsome or ugly, it depends on your luck, the time for this transformation is about a day, and after the time passes, it will naturally turn into its original appearance, so no matter how beautiful or ugly, you don't have to worry!" As he spoke, Zhuge Liuyun handed him a transformation feather.
Xingchen took the transformation feather in his hand, looked at it repeatedly, and asked, "How to use this feather, is there any formula?"
"There is no mantra, but you need to close your eyes and say 'change' in your mouth. As for what you are going to do, the effect of the changes is the same. You don't have to be afraid of anything. Zhuge Liuyun stared at Xingchen, his expression relaxed and natural.
"Okay, if you become ugly, you have to give me another feather!" Xingchen really did as Zhuge Liuyun said, only to see him shout "change", and then touched his head, and sure enough, two small horns were born, and his ears were also pointed.
"Hehe, this is really interesting, this feather is really a bit magical, where did you come from?" asked Xingchen.
"You see that I shoot arrows with a bow all day long, and it is normal to shoot a bird, and it is also luck to shoot this psychic bird, but this kind of luck is not very common, I am almost exhausted of feathers on my body, and I have not yet encountered a second psychic bird. After Zhuge Liuyun finished speaking, he sighed.
"What kind of monster do you say we're changing now?" Xingchen asked curiously.
"I'm a horned little scalper, you're a horned little goat, haha, they're all little monsters. Zhuge Liuyun said jokingly, "Okay, no kidding, now let's go to Demon Cloud City!"
Zhuge Liuyun said, walking in front, Xingchen also followed behind him and asked, "Is that Demon Cloud City far away?"
"It's not far, it's not far, if the two of us travel overnight tonight, we can be there tomorrow morning! Tomorrow morning, you will see the bustling Demon Cloud City. Don't lose that demon spirit stone, we have to bargain and sell it for a good price!" Zhuge Liuyun instructed.
"Ah, you still have to go at night?" Xingchen pursed his lips and frowned.
"Of course, it's cool to travel at night, and it's not easy to run into monsters who rob the road!" Zhuge Liuyun said with a big grin.
......
The two of them hurried all night, and when the fog cleared the next day, they finally saw a city, this city had no brick stone walls and high walls, only towering peaks and low hills, but whether it was a mountain peak or a hill, there were countless caves, and these hills and peaks had become the houses of these monsters, and there were many monsters gathered together, and there were plaques hanging in front of each cave.
Above the peak, the demon clouds linger, the mist is thick, and below the peak, there are countless strange paths, stone-paved paths, leading to various demon households.
Since it is a city, of course, there are merchants to buy and sell, but the merchants here are all monsters, and they sell a wide variety of things, including human silk satin, magic weapons, and spirit stone pills, but some are sold the bones of demon beasts and inner pills. They sell everything as long as they can make money, and the currency used in the city is gold, which is useful everywhere.
Those monsters who don't need to cultivate are often in business to make money, and then use the money in exchange for cultivation pills, however, this kind of seems to come faster than sitting hard to cultivate, but it also has to have a business mind and a clever speech, otherwise, the money earned is not enough to spend food and clothing, let alone buy dexterous cultivation.
Xingchen walked along the street of Demon Cloud City to the front, the monsters on this street got up early to open the stall in front of the Luo Gate, but the valuable things were taken out last, and they were not taken out until there were many people on the street. He looked around the street for a long time, and asked Zhuge Liuyun: "Brother Zhuge , how can this demon spirit stone be exchanged for money, can one be sold on the ground?"
Zhuge Liuyun was thinking about things, but suddenly came back to his senses and said with a smile: "There is a pawnshop here, but the demon spirit stone is handed over to the pawnshop for money, but it can't make much money by doing it this way, because the place that specializes in buying demon spirit stones is much more expensive than the price here." β
"Oh, where is it, take me there!" said Xingchen eagerly.
"Well, you come with me, this is what I am most familiar with, I have been to every way, and I know that there is a place where the price of buying demon spirit stones is the highest. With that, he walked ahead, and Xingchen followed again.
The two of them bypassed two streets and came to a secluded and deserted cave, but there was no one outside the cave, but there was already a tall man inside who came out to greet him, only to see that he was wearing a loose red silk robe, he had no horns on his head, his ears were as big as a fan, and his nose was arched, and he was clearly a pig demon, although this pig demon was not a fierce monster, but because he could run a business and exchange money for elixir, he also achieved success in cultivation.
"Two guest officers, do you want to buy something?" asked the pig demon in a cute manner.
"We're not here to buy things, but we're here to sell things!" Xingchen was about to speak, but Zhuge Liuyun was in front of him.
The pig demon smiled slightly, spread his hands and said: "The two guest officers are invited, but we have a special master here to do the identification, it is a good and poor goods, and you can estimate a price at a glance." β
Zhuge Liuyun and Xingchen walked into the room with him, and Zhuge Liuyun said very sophisticatedly: "We can estimate a price for this thing ourselves, just look at the price you offer, if it is suitable, we will sell it, if it is not suitable, we will find another buyer." β
The pig demon nodded politely and said: "That's, that's, the transaction must follow the wishes of both parties, and it can't be a unilateral transaction! β
Xingchen dragged a chair and sat down, presenting the demon spirit stone. The pig demon hurriedly took it and handed it to the appraisal master, saying, "Master, take a good look at it and estimate a real price for them." β
The identified master was a monkey demon, and the monkey demon stared at the stone carefully for a quarter of an hour and said: "If the old man is not mistaken, this is a high-grade demon spirit stone, which is very valuable, about a thousand taels of gold, but the aura in it has been used by the cultivators, but it is not worth so much money, about four hundred taels of gold." However, this is already a sky-high price for the two of them. β
Xingchen thought that he had money to use this time, and he was overjoyed, but the appraiser said to Xingchen: "Wait a while, I have something to discuss with the boss." After speaking, he pulled the pig demon to the back room and covered the door, although Zhuge Liuyun had already noticed that there must be something strange in this matter, but he did not say it.
"What's the matter with you pulling me in in such a hurry?" the pig demon asked the appraiser.
"Boss, did you see the notice issued by the Silver Snake Sect Leader Wangfu yesterday? This high-grade demon spirit stone is exactly what the Demon King's Mansion is looking for. The appraiser fixed his expression, looked at the pig demon and said.
"You mean these two people are thieves?" the pig demon asked in a hurry.
The appraiser waved his hand and said: "Whether it is a thief or not, I don't dare to make a conclusion, but this high-grade demon spirit stone must not be their thing, you go and drag them first, I will report to the people of the palace and let them lead people to take a look." β
