However, before Zeng Zixin could take a closer look, the person had already disappeared around the corner. Zeng Zixin furrowed his brow, and various thoughts crossed his mind.

Recently, the number of people in the camp had been increasing steadily.

Where there are people, there are conflicts, interests, and inevitably, the need for trade. The appearance of a small market in the camp had even further fueled the development of the entire area, making it increasingly bustling.

If it weren’t for the eerie sensation of the chilling atmosphere just a few dozen miles away, many might have forgotten that there was a person in the vicinity, a person at the Aperture tempering realm. Wherever he went, no grass grew, and corpses littered the land.

Many people had probably forgotten that there was an eerie being dozens of miles away. Moreover, it was a combined aperture tempering realm eerie being. Wherever he passed, not a single blade of grass grew, and corpses littered the ground.

As more and more people gathered, Zeng Zixin noticed that the people he was familiar with were becoming fewer and fewer.

Most of the people Zeng Zixin knew were independent cultivators. Independent cultivators had high mobility, but in places with opportunities and benefits, they would tend to settle down. There was no reason why the number of people he knew should be decreasing.

A few days ago, Zeng Zixin had heard someone calling out for another person. He recognized the voice as one of the twins, a pair of brothers who were both cultivators. One of them was at the initial stage of the Visceral Tempering Realm. Due to their shared cultivation method and a strong bond since childhood, they could even hold their own against a cultivator at the peak of the Visceral Tempering realm when they joined forces.

The two brothers were almost inseparable in their daily lives, but for some unknown reason, one of them had disappeared recently.

The calls for the missing person had continued for a considerable amount of time before gradually fading away. It was unclear whether they had found the person or if they had gone further away.

At the time, Zeng Zixin had been busy with his cultivation and hadn’t paid much attention to it. Now, thinking about the recent unusual occurrences in the area, he suddenly had a bad feeling.

Could it be that there were experts from the dark path who had been specifically targeting the independent cultivators here recently?

Or was there something wrong with Shang Wu City itself?

Zeng Zixin turned his head to look in the direction of Shang Wu City. However, he had heard from the strong cultivators at the Aperture tempering realm that Shang Wu City had not moved recently, and even their auras were very stable.

In such a situation, Shang Wu City shouldn’t be in any danger.

Zeng Zixin lowered his head to look at the jade bottle in his hand, filled with the high-quality Yin energy. It was something that Zeng Zixin had rarely been able to obtain over the years.

In just a short period of time, Zeng Zixin could clearly feel his cultivation rapidly increasing. If this situation continued for some time, he could break through to the later stage of the Aperture tempering realm in a short period of time, or even reach the peak of the Aperture tempering realm.

Once he left this place, it would be much riskier to obtain this kind of Yin energy in the future.

Alternatively, he could buy this type of Yin energy from others, but Yin energy of this quality was in high demand everywhere. With the silver coins he had in hand, he could only afford it a few times, and he might end up running out of money.

What’s more, the fact that he could obtain it for free now, but would have to spend a high price to purchase it later for no apparent reason, made it hard for Zeng Zixin to accept.

Zeng Zixin looked up at the people around the camp, there were still so many people here, so what was there to be afraid of? Not to mention this camp, even farther away, there were strong cultivators from various major powers at the Aperture tempering realm.

Even if there was really something wrong, they would have discovered it earlier. Now that there was no early warning from anyone, it must be that he was overthinking things.

Zeng Zixin found a relatively quiet spot, opened the jade bottle, and drew out the Yin energy from it, integrating it into his body to refine the strength within his body.

“I’ll stay here for another month, and then leave in a month!”

Feeling his cultivation gradually improving, a smile appeared on Zeng Zixin’s face, and he made a decision.

The icy Yin energy surrounded Zeng Zixin, and under the scorching sun, the shadow behind him suddenly moved slightly but quickly returned to normal.

Zeng Zixin was completely unaware, fully immersed in his cultivation.

At the Primordial Sword Sect, Chen Fei placed the pot containing Baka’s cultivation in a secret room and crushed two pieces of elemental stones, scattering them into the soil.

After two days of recovery, Baka’s aura had increased significantly. At this rate, it wouldn’t take too long for him to fully recover to the peak of the first stage.

Chen Fei informed Qu Qingsheng before leaving the sect and heading to Black City District.

Black City District was about a thousand miles away from the Primordial Sword Sect. Setting out in the early morning, it took several hours of travel, and Chen Fei finally saw a city ahead.

The city’s black walls surrounded it on all sides, and from a distance, the entire city looked like a piece of black fabric. The name Black City District was largely derived from this characteristic.

As the Slaughter Spirit Technique circulated, like a sharp blade cutting, Chen Fei’s aura descended to the level of the early Aperture tempering realm.

One’s appearance could change, the intensity of one’s aura could be concealed, but the nature of the aura could not be altered. In Black City District, Chen Fei might encounter people from the sects around Immortal Cloud City, so he naturally needed to conceal his aura to some extent.

As for lowering his aura to below the Aperture tempering realm, that was completely unnecessary. While Black City District had its own order, it was ultimately a place driven by self-interest.

Having a cultivation level of the Body Refining Realm was too weak and would only bring unnecessary trouble here. The early Aperture tempering realm was just right, allowing him to attract less attention from prying eyes.

Chen Fei lowered his straw hat a bit, his figure flickered, and he arrived at the city gate of Black City District.

There were no guards outside the city gate of Black City District, and there was no curfew here either. Chen Fei entered the city along with the crowd, and as soon as he stepped inside, he heard the bustling cries of vendors.

Stalls and shops were almost everywhere along the entire street, not only on the main street but also in the side alleys and lanes. High-quality medicinal herbs were readily available, various types of elixirs to enhance cultivation could be found, and there were also semi-spiritual weapons that could be used by Body Refining Realm cultivators, though they were in the minority.

As for cultivation techniques, there were even more options here. However, how many of them were damaged or incomplete would depend on one’s discerning eye.

Once sold, there would be no responsibility for any post-sale matters. If you dared to cause trouble, it would come down to a showdown with weapons.

Even medicinal herbs and elixirs had their fair share of counterfeit products here. Having a discerning eye was crucial in this place. Of course, if your cultivation level was high enough, most people wouldn’t dare to sell you fakes.

Chen Fei strolled along the street, and the hawking voices lowered significantly as he passed by. His Aperture tempering realm cultivation level was evident, and even in Black City District, a place teeming with all sorts of people, those in the Aperture tempering realm were still considered high-ranking individuals.

Cultivators of the Body Refining Realm could be offended, and even peak Visceral tempering realm cultivators wouldn’t pose much of a problem.

But when it came to the Aperture tempering realm, it was best not to offend them if you could avoid it. The Aperture tempering realm and the Body Refining Realm were simply not in the same league.

This was a universal principle that applied anywhere.

Black City District itself wasn’t very large, with an estimated area comparable to the original Pingyin County, if not slightly smaller. However, Chen Fei sensed the presence of at least thirty Aperture tempering realm cultivators here.

Most of them were in the early Aperture tempering realm, but there were also a few in the late Aperture tempering realm.

It was only in the late Aperture tempering realm that one could maintain control over Black City District. Only when reaching the late Aperture tempering realm would other factions show some tolerance for this place, albeit limited.

Of course, this tolerance had its limits as well.

Black City District claimed not to care about the origin of goods, but if something truly came from a dominant force, Black City District would absolutely not dare to accept it. This was something they knew very well, and that’s why Chen Fei had immediately extracted the spiritual essence from Hong Yuanfeng’s sword. Because no matter where you were, it was a hot potato.

Chen Fei didn’t need to risk bringing this trouble upon himself just to make a few more elemental stones.

Chen Fei was in the middle section of the main street when he turned into an alley. This was a storefront recommended by Chi Shuqing. Compared to the shops outside on the main street, the transactions here would be more discreet.

Compared to the outside, this shop might be slightly quieter, but there were still occasional customers coming in and out.

When Chen Fei sensed that there were no other outsiders inside the shop, he entered.

The shopkeeper glanced at Chen Fei and proactively closed the shop door. He had already sensed Chen Fei’s presence outside, and he also understood Chen Fei’s intentions.

“May I know what the guest needs?” the shopkeeper greeted with a smile.

“I want to sell a few spiritual weapons,” Chen Fei said and took out a wooden box from behind him, placing it in front of the shopkeeper.

For convenience, Chen Fei had specially asked the Treasure Depository to make several wooden boxes that could conceal the fluctuations of spiritual weapons. Otherwise, taking out several spiritual weapons from the spatial grid would have been somewhat conspicuous.

The shopkeeper opened the wooden box, revealing a low-grade spiritual sword inside, which came from the Yashan Sect and belonged to Xu Yanxin.

The shopkeeper picked up the spiritual sword, examined it carefully, and after a moment, he placed the sword down and looked up at Chen Fei, saying, “This spiritual sword has extraordinary quality, but it seems to have suffered some damage during a previous battle. Therefore, the price may be slightly lower.”

“How much?” Chen Fei nodded in agreement. This spiritual sword did indeed have some damage, and the damage was inflicted by Chen Fei himself. His strike had severely wounded Xu Yanxin, and it was thanks to the good quality of this spiritual sword that it hadn’t degraded into a semi-spiritual weapon on the spot.

“Thirty-eight elemental stones,” the shopkeeper thought for a moment and offered a price. If this spiritual weapon hadn’t been damaged, it could have been priced around fifty elemental stones.

“Agreed!” Chen Fei smiled and nodded in approval. The price was reasonable.

“Please wait, sir. Let me fetch the elemental stones,” the shopkeeper said with an even wider smile and was about to turn to go to the backyard.

“Wait a moment, 1 have more items to sell,” Chen Fei stopped the shopkeeper and then placed another wooden box in front of him.

According to Chen Fei’s plan, in these small alleyway shops, selling just two or three spiritual weapons per store should easily allow him to sell all the spiritual weapons.

Not conspicuous, but also fast; after purchasing some spiritual pills here, he can return to the Primordial Sword Sect.

The shopkeeper turned back, carefully opened the wooden box, and a much more agile aura was emitted from it. It was indeed a medium-grade spiritual sword.

This sword was 2 feet 8 inches long and 3..5 inches wide, and it came from the head of the Yashan Sect, Qi Yuanlu!
