Chapter 1246

Zi Chen entered the city that day and stayed in an inn. This place gave him a very warm feeling. As for the second feeling, it was expensive.

Everything here was linked to the nomological fragments. In this world where Earth Prime was only worth one piece and Virtual Realm was worth 655 pieces, Zi Chen deeply felt that the life of an ordinary Virtual Realm expert was not easy.

Zi Chen had killed hundreds of Virtual Realm experts. From the Spirit Rings of these people, Zi Chen could clearly feel that more than half of these people did not have the qualifications to live in Huping City.

The annual accommodation fee was as high as a few thousand Virtual Realm experts. This was completely enough to make the remaining half of the Virtual Realm experts retreat.

In addition, cultivation was also an indispensable expense.

More than 45% of the people who could stay in the inn were Corporeal Realm experts, while the other 65% were some staff members. As for Virtual Realm experts like Zi Chen, there were very few of them. They could be considered outliers.

That day, Zi Chen stayed in his room and did not come out. He also relaxed and had a good rest for the day.

Private fights were prohibited in the entire city. If one had enough resources, this city was enough to protect one's safety.

The next morning, Zi Chen woke up, washed up, and left the inn.

He originally wanted to eat something, but after seeing the strange gazes of the people around him, he immediately gave up on the idea.

In this place, taverns were synonymous with luxury goods. It was already surprising that Zi Chen, a mere Virtual Realm expert, stayed in an inn. If he also went to eat, many people would be concerned.

The miniature Storm Wind Eagle stood on Zi Chen's shoulder. Zi Chen began to look for some places to trade.

The streets were filled with cultivators. So far, Zi Chen had never seen an Earth Prime expert. As for Virtual Realm experts, he had seen quite a few. However, these people were mostly businessmen. They had some good things on hand and were here to trade. Most of them would leave the city before dark.

Along the way, he saw the most Corporeal Realm experts. Compared to Zhang Zhen, this place was almost filled with Corporeal Realm experts.

There were also quite a few trading places. There were big and small shops. Many Emptiness Realm Experts had gone to those small shops, but Zi Chen was looking for a big shop.

Zi Chen didn't know if there was a habit of double-crossing here, so he came to a bigger store. The other party's reputation was naturally higher. After all, what he wanted to trade was a huge sum. If the trade went smoothly, Zi Chen wouldn't have to worry about resources for a long time.

When Zi Chen walked into a shop that he was satisfied with, he was slightly absent-minded when he saw the scene inside.

There were many female service staff here. They were all wearing the same uniform. They were good-looking and had sweet smiles. When they saw Zi Chen come in, one of them walked towards Zi Chen leisurely.

Zi Chen had seen his fair share of beauties. For example, Su Mengyao and the others were all peak beauties. Although these women were beautiful, they weren't on the same level as Su Mengyao and the others. But that was only limited to the Martial Heaven Continent. It went without saying that these people were the most beautiful women Zi Chen had seen since coming to the Martial Heaven Continent.

Moreover, they were also the most beautiful women Zi Chen had seen.

Just like resources, female cultivators were also an extremely scarce resource in this world. But Zi Chen didn't expect to encounter so many here.

In fact, Zi Chen didn't know that on the teleportation platform under the jurisdiction of the city's army, whenever a female cultivator was found, the city's army would bring them to their respective cities.

And because of the scarcity of female cultivators, female cultivators were destined to have a better life than male cultivators of the same level in this world.

There were very few female cultivators outside the city. Most of the female cultivators in the city did some service work.

As for beauty, at this level, which one of them wasn't beautiful and moving?

The service staff looked at Zi Chen with a hint of imperceptible surprise in their eyes, but they still greeted Zi Chen politely.

"I'm here to see what's here." Zi Chen said lightly.

"Okay, but what do you need to see?"

The woman always had a smile on her face: "We have pills, weapons, and some rare items here, but … there are relatively few items that are suitable for the Virtual Realm."

The woman was at the middle stage of the Virtual Realm, one level higher than Zi Chen. Her attitude was very gentle.

Zi Chen's gaze swept across the hall, and his expression gradually changed.

How was this relatively few, there were none at all.

Zi Chen's eyes swept across. Almost everything was aimed at the Reality Realm. As for the Virtual Realm, there was nothing at all.

The woman seemed to see Zi Chen's awkwardness, and said kindly: "You can look at the things here, maybe you'll find one or two useful things."

Zi Chen nodded, and then the woman led him to look at the things here.

The first thing that Zi Chen saw were real weapons. The only difference between real weapons and real spiritual weapons was that they didn't have souls.

"There are real weapons and real spiritual weapons here. There are both offensive and defensive ones."

The woman pointed at a longsword and patiently explained: "This is made from the fangs of a spiritual grade warbeast. It's worth one hundred thousand."

In the eyes of an ordinary Virtual Realm expert, one hundred thousand was definitely an astronomical figure. However, it seemed that the service staff here had undergone strict training, so they were very polite. They didn't show the slightest dissatisfaction or impatience because Zi Chen was an Virtual Realm expert.

"There is also a real spiritual weapon here. It is of the same origin as this sword, but because it has a spirit, its price is ten times that of the longsword."

Ten times was one million. This number surprised Zi Chen, but he wasn't shocked. After hearing this, he asked doubtfully, "As far as I know, real spiritual weapons can only be owned by the owner. They can't be traded."

The woman smiled and said, "This is a real spiritual weapon that is forcibly sealed. It can't be upgraded."

Zi Chen felt relieved and nodded.

The Cauldron Spirit had once told Zi Chen that there was a way to fuse with an earth spiritual weapon. However, he didn't succeed after trying a few times, so he gave up.

He didn't expect that in the Zhanwu Continent, there would actually be someone who could fuse with a real spiritual weapon.

In addition to weapons, Zi Chen also saw a defensive stomach. The price of a defensive stomach was more than twice that of a weapon. In other words, a defensive spiritual weapon would cost more than two million.

In addition, there were also some medicinal pellets. Most of these medicinal pellets were healing medicinal pellets that contained extremely rich edicts of life.

In addition to the edicts of life, these medicinal pellets also contained the energy of space.

These medicinal pellets were extraordinary, so naturally, they were also very expensive.

If Oder and Jesse had these medicinal pellets, they naturally wouldn't have died from the destruction caused by the energy of reality.

Zi Chen didn't lack medicinal pellets. He was only interested in weapons. However, the first problem he had to solve was to sell the items on him.

As Zi Chen learned about the items in the hall, Zi Chen discovered that not everyone's attitude was as good-natured as the woman beside him.

When one of the attendants saw that Zi Chen was interested in some of the weapons, he approached Zi Chen with a smile and asked if he had just arrived in the city. Zi Chen calmly replied.

The other party still had a smile on his face, but it was very obvious that his smile contained some other emotions. The instant he turned his head, Zi Chen keenly saw ridicule and contempt in the other party's eyes.

Of course, the contempt was for himself. As for the ridicule, it was obviously for the woman beside him.

Immediately after, Zi Chen noticed that the gazes of the others when they looked at the woman carried a different kind of emotion.

This kind of emotion could be called ridicule because she was doing something meaningless. No one would think that this early-stage virtual realm expert would be a rich person. He was just an emptiness realm expert who had just arrived in the city and had a little bit of resources on him.

The woman had a panoramic view of everyone's expressions. However, her attitude towards Zi Chen remained the same. She was neither anxious nor impatient. She patiently introduced the items that Zi Chen was interested in to Zi Chen one by one.

After looking through most of the items, Zi Chen lost interest in the rest. Thus, he asked, "If you sell things here, do you accept things?"

"Sir, you have something to sell." The woman was clearly not surprised by Zi Chen's question.

Zi Chen nodded and then asked, "What kind of things do you accept here?"

"Sir, if there is anything you would like to sell, you can show it to me first."

The woman led Zi Chen to a more spacious area. Then, she gestured for Zi Chen to take a seat. At the same time, she poured a cup of tea for Zi Chen.

Zi Chen was a little surprised to see tea in a place like this.

Since it was still early, there weren't many customers in the area. Thus, many of the attendants' gazes were focused on Zi Chen.

It was obvious that they were very curious and expectant to see what good things this puny early-stage virtual realm expert could bring out.

The woman arrived again. Just as Zi Chen was thinking about what he should take out for her to see, two more people arrived.

One of the attendants led a Reality Realm expert over. The two of them headed straight for Zi Chen's area.

"Xiao Li, this customer has something to sell. I need to appraise it. Please move aside," the second woman said with a sweet smile.

The woman named Xiao Li seemed a little nervous. She said, "But, Sister Hua, I have something here too."

The second woman glanced at Zi Chen and smiled. "I'm really sorry. Sir, can you move aside?"

This woman was a late-stage virtual realm expert. There was nothing wrong with her attitude and tone. However, there was a slight disdain in her eyes.

Zi Chen looked at her calmly. Then, he said calmly, "If this is a place that specializes in appraising items, there are many places like this around. Why come to my place?"

The woman was stunned by Zi Chen's straightforward question. The smile on her face froze. She clearly hadn't expected this puny Virtual Realm expert to ask her such a question.

In this world where strength was respected, a puny Virtual Realm expert should have tactfully moved aside under normal circumstances.

Zi Chen looked at her calmly, causing the woman's expression to become a little unnatural. Fortunately, someone helped her out in the next moment.

"I say, you're just a puny Virtual Realm expert. Where did you get your confidence from? Move aside. I want to sell something."

The one who spoke was a Reality Realm expert. Although he was only at the early-stage of the Reality Realm, this realm was enough to make him look down on all early-stage virtual realm experts.

Zi Chen looked at Reality and said calmly, "I'm also here to sell something."

Reality mocked, "What are you here to sell? The corpse of a soldier-level beast. Hmph, you've come to the wrong place. That kind of thing is only sold outside the city."

Looking at the arrogant Reality, Zi Chen asked, "What are you here to sell?"
