Ship Ticket

Zhuowen asked around and found out that the cylindrical building was the place where the tickets for the Chaos Beasts were sold. These people were all cultivators from other prefectures.

Cultivators who could ride the Chaos Beasts weren't ordinary. Not to mention the expensive ticket, crossing prefectures was extremely dangerous. If one's strength wasn't enough, it was very likely that they would encounter a life and death crisis in an unfamiliar prefecture.

Looking around, Zhuowen found that most of the people in the long line were Saints. Most of them were Profound Sages. Although there were far fewer Heavenly Saints than Profound Sages, there were still more than ten of them.

Seeing this, Zhuowen couldn't help but sigh. The Central Region was indeed worthy of being called the Central Region. The strength of the cultivators there was much greater than that of the four major regions.

Moreover, the price of the ship ticket was completely different. For example, the Green Lotus Prefecture that Zhuowen wanted to go to was six prefectures away from the Blood Refining Prefecture. Therefore, the price was very high. One needed to buy a Heavenly Yin Saint Artifact's worth of spirit stones or other treasures.

If one was going to a neighboring prefecture, the price of the ship ticket would be much lower.

Zhuowen stood quietly in a line and waited silently. His mind was immersed in the Azure Dragon Hall.

He had already separated the great success Saint Physique and placed it in the Azure Dragon Hall. The Ninth Yang Dao Sword was also placed in the Azure Dragon Hall.

The Nine Yang Imprint that Xiao Yu had given to Zhuowen was given to the great success Saint Physique. Zhuowen intended to use the flow of time in the second layer to allow the great success Saint Physique to successfully refine the Ninth Yang Dao Sword as soon as possible.

However, the Ninth Yang Dao Sword was much more powerful than the First Yang Dao Sword. The difficulty of refining it was also hundreds of times higher. Zhuowen was very clear that it would take a very long time to completely refine the Ninth Yang Dao Sword, even with the assistance of the Nine Yang Imprint.

Of course, even if there was a slight possibility, Zhuowen wouldn't give up so easily.

As for the other clone, Zhuowen arranged for it to cultivate Mental Energy, hoping that it could reach the Profound Saint Master Realm as soon as possible.

Since Zhuowen had inherited the Bi Fang's Sea of Knowledge, he didn't have any bottlenecks when breaking through to the Profound Saint Master Realm. However, the mental strength of his clone was still a bit lacking. If his mental strength could reach the standard of a Profound Saint Master, Zhuowen would naturally be able to become a Profound Saint Master.

Time slowly passed, and the line also slowly moved forward. Soon, it was Zhuowen's turn.

"Where are you going?"

Behind the window sat a woman with a cold expression. She glanced at Zhuowen and asked.

"Green Lotus Mansion!" Zhuowen replied.

The cold woman frowned and immediately took out a long golden bamboo tube from the cabinet and said, "You're in luck. Our Blood Refinement Mansion doesn't have many tickets to the Green Lotus Mansion, and this is the last one. It's due in three days, and the ticket price is a Yin Sky Saint Artifact or a spirit stone or other treasure of comparable value."

"Three days later? Are there no tickets for today?" Zhuowen asked with a frown.

The cold woman glanced at Zhuowen and said indifferently, "It's not like you don't know about the relationship between the Blood Refinement Mansion and the Green Lotus Mansion. The two manors rarely interact with each other, so naturally, there are very few tickets to the Green Lotus Mansion. If you don't want this last ticket, you can leave."

Hearing this, Zhuowen felt a little helpless, but there was nothing he could do. Since this was the last ticket, he naturally wouldn't miss it.

After all, the Blood Refinement Mansion was a place of trouble for him, and he didn't want to stay there any longer. His intuition told him that if he continued to stay, it would only become more and more dangerous.

"Okay, this is a Yin Sky Saint Artifact. I'll buy this ticket!"

Zhuowen secretly transmitted his voice and immediately handed over a Saint Artifact. However, this Saint Artifact was covered by Zhuowen's Saint Energy, so others couldn't see through it.

The cold woman put away the Saint Artifact and looked at it a little. After finding that there was nothing wrong with it, she nodded and handed the ticket to Zhuowen.

"Wait!

Is this a ticket to the Green Lotus Mansion?

If it is, I'll take this ticket. "

Suddenly, a clear voice that sounded like a silver bell rang out from nearby. Soon after, a beautiful figure who was surrounded by several people slowly cut in from the back of the line.

The act of cutting in line caused the cultivators behind to be extremely displeased, but no one dared to step forward. The reason was that the aura of the four people standing beside the beautiful figure was extremely terrifying. Their aura had far surpassed that of an ordinary Quintessential Saint Stage powerhouse.

Zhuo Wen's attention was also attracted by the bell-like voice. His gaze first landed on the four people beside the woman, and his pupils involuntarily shrank.

This was because the aura of the four people beside the woman was too vast. According to Zhuowen's judgment, the aura of the four people was most likely no weaker than Xue Hentian. In particular, the middle-aged man who carried a huge sword on his back among the four people gave him a strong sense of threat.

Perhaps sensing Zhuowen's gaze, the middle-aged man slowly turned his head. A sliver of terrifying Sword Qi suddenly flashed through his pitch-black eyes.

The sliver of Sword Qi was like a maggot in one's bones. It instantly passed into Zhuowen's eyes. A vast and sharp power burst out from the sliver of Sword Qi as if it wanted to blind Zhuowen's eyes.

Zhuowen's gaze turned cold. The power of the Yellow Springs surged in his eyes. The moment the sliver of Sword Qi entered his eyes, it was swept away and annihilated by the power of the Yellow Springs.

"Hmm?"

The middle-aged man's eyes were like torches as he looked at Zhuowen in surprise. He was a Sword Cultivator who specialized in Sword Arts. He was like a sword, so the powerful Sword Qi that burst out from his eyes was enough to make an ordinary Quintessential Saint Stage cultivator extremely miserable.

The young man before him only gave off the presence of a Yang Sky Saint, but he was able to withstand the Sword Qi from his eyes without being affected. He was not simple.

The middle-aged man's actions from before naturally couldn't escape the woman's notice. Especially when the woman saw that Zhuo Wen was actually completely unharmed by the middle-aged man's Sword Qi and remained calm and composed, a wisp of emotion appeared in her beautiful eyes.

"This brother, can you transfer the ticket in your hand to this little girl?

I have important matters to attend to in the Azure Lotus Manor, "the woman cupped her hands at Zhuowen in a natural and unrestrained manner.

Only now did Zhuowen's gaze land on the woman. A sliver of surprise appeared in his eyes.

The woman's beautiful hair draped over her shoulders, and her beauty was enchanting. She was like a willow tree dancing in the east wind. Her face was as beautiful as a flower, and her eyes were as clear as autumn water. Her lips were like cherry blossoms, and her teeth were like two rows of broken jade. The corners of her mouth were curled up in a joyful smile, but there was a glimmer of light in her bright eyes. She was truly a stunner.

This woman's beauty was extremely moving, and she was even comparable to Mu Chenxue. However, the temperaments of the two were very different.

Mu Chenxue was elegant and unapproachable. She was like a lotus flower that had emerged from the mud without being stained, extremely moving.

However, this woman's temperament was very different. She was natural and unrestrained, and there was a trace of luxury about her. Her behavior was dignified and elegant, just like a lady from a noble family.

In particular, when this woman smiled, there was a trace of indescribable charm and gentleness in her smile, causing many cultivators in the surroundings to become infatuated.

Zhuowen narrowed his eyes as he stared at the beautiful woman in front of him and said indifferently, "Sorry, this ticket is very important to this one, so it is inconvenient for me to sell it!"

As soon as these words came out, the beautiful woman's pretty face stiffened, and she said somewhat unnaturally, "This ticket should be a Sky Yin Saint Artifact, right? This Young Lady is willing to pay double the price to buy the ticket in Brother's hand. If Brother still thinks it's not enough, then the Sky Yin Saint Artifact is also negotiable."

As soon as these words came out, many people in the surroundings showed surprise. They were all surprised by this woman's wealth. She actually intended to use a Sky Yin Saint Artifact to buy a ticket to Blue Lotus Mansion. This could be described as extremely extravagant.

If such a good thing fell on their heads, they would naturally agree. At the same time, some people secretly guessed the identity of this woman. Since she could so readily take out a Sky Yin Saint Artifact to make a transaction, the force behind her was definitely not simple.

Zhuowen frowned slightly, but he shook his head and said, "Sorry, this ticket is indeed very useful to this one, so I don't intend to trade it."

Saying so, Zhuowen prepared to leave.

Rumble!

However, the instant Zhuo Wen took a step forward, a terrifying sound of something breaking through the air rang out.

Zhuowen's eyes turned cold as he abruptly took several steps back. Soon after, the sonic boom rang out and smashed into the place where Zhuowen had been standing.

Zhuowen took a closer look and discovered that it was a huge, black sword that had smashed into the ground. Zhuowen was no stranger to the sword's owner. It was the weapon of the middle-aged man with a sword on his back.

"Sir, what is the meaning of this?" Zhuowen turned around and stared at the middle-aged man sinisterly.

For some reason, the middle-aged man shivered when he met Zhuowen's sinister gaze. It was as if he was looking at an extremely cold, venomous snake.

However, the middle-aged man quickly regained his composure and said in a deep voice, "Our Young Miss has already lowered herself enough. You definitely don't know how to appreciate kindness. If you don't want anything to happen to you, it's best you hand over the ticket. We won't take advantage of you and will buy your ticket with the Empyrean Saint Artifact."

Zhuowen sneered and ignored the middle-aged man. Instead, he looked at the woman and said, "Are you trying to force a sale?"

The woman was silent for a moment. Her jade-like hand gently lifted her hair and pushed it to the back of her head. She shook her head and said, "We're not forcing you to sell. Since you don't want to sell to us, we won't make things difficult for you."

Saying so, the woman looked at the man with a sword on his back and said, "Big Brother Shui Hui, let him go!"

The middle-aged man frowned and said in a deep voice, "Young Miss, we don't know when those guys will catch up. If we miss this flight, we don't know when we'll be able to wait for another flight to Azure Lotus Mansion."

"This kid is only in the Yang Sky Sacred Realm. What important matter could he possibly have with this ticket to Azure Lotus Mansion? Could his matter be more important than ours?"

The woman shook her head and said, "Forget it. I'm not willing to force a sale. If this brother doesn't want to sell, it's useless for us to force him. Moreover, it's only a ticket and there are five of us. It's useless."
