Chapter 145

The Firmament Palm was just an ordinary manual for the True Qi Realm. It was only worth a few Yuan Stone Fragments.

The ancient city gates opened, and Cangli City was once again connected to the outside world. At the same time, the news of buying the Firmament Palm at a high price spread out from the shops.

The price of the Firmament Palm was actually one Yuan Stone Fragment for a few Yuan Stone Fragments. It could be said that the price had skyrocketed.

Zi Chen stayed in the inn for twenty days. When the city gates opened, the innkeeper said that he had run out of Yuan Stones. If he wanted to stay, he would have to pay two Yuan Stone Fragments per night.

In the previous twenty days, the innkeeper had actually charged ten times the price of Zi Chen.

After paying the primeval stones, Zi Chen left the inn. By chance, he used all the primeval stones he had on him to buy a manual of the Firmament Palm. After that, Zi Chen sold the manual at a high price.

In addition to earning Yuan Stones, Zi Chen also inquired about the location of the gathering of the geniuses.

All the Xiantian geniuses within ten thousand miles of Cangli City would come to participate in the gathering of the geniuses.

After some inquiries, Zi Chen already knew the location.

It was the most luxurious guest house in Cangli City. It had nine floors, representing the meaning of heaven. The gathering place of the geniuses was there.

Moreover, Zi Chen unexpectedly heard that the gathering of the geniuses was not organized by Li Huo alone. There were also people from the Cang Family and Martial Ancestor's people.

A few months ago, some geniuses had already arrived, and both sides had already met. Recently, invitations were sent out, and many geniuses were gathered.

The guest house was the most luxurious restaurant in Cangli City. It had nine floors, and the price was even higher. If one wanted to go there, they would have to have a lot of Yuan Stones. Otherwise, they wouldn't even be able to enter the door.

Moreover, there were many geniuses, and not everyone could climb to the ninth floor.

"I have to get some Yuan Stones."

Zi Chen thought to himself. At the same time, he was furious, "It's all because of this damn monk. He stole all my Yuan Stones and Raging Flame."

Originally, Zi Chen had planned to sell the light golden stone, but after thinking about it, he decided to forget about it. This thing was extremely heavy and very hard. That day, he had used the Blazing Sword to hack at it several times, but there wasn't even a single scar on it. At critical moments, it could even be used as a weapon.

There was only one way to earn Primordial Stones quickly, and that was to buy a large amount of Firmament Palm Art. But now, no one was a fool, and they all knew that they were hiding the Firmament Palm Art. Some people even hoarded a lot, waiting for the price to rise.

After a day of fruitless work, Zi Chen helplessly returned to the inn. During this period of time, he had earned quite a lot of Yuan Stones by reselling the Firmament Palm. One of the Firmament Palm manuals had even earned him two low grade Yuan Stones.

Moreover, the price of the Firmament Palm Art had also been raised to an extremely high level.

As soon as he entered the inn, Zi Chen noticed that there was a portrait hanging beside the counter. It was a portrait of a young man with only a head and no lower body. His skin was extremely dark, making him look like a dark-skinned brat. Even his eyes were black and shiny.

"It must be that monk. He still hasn't given up." Zi Chen remained calm and asked, "Innkeeper, why is this portrait hanging here?"

When Zi Chen came to the inn before, he had already thought of the situation that day, so he had already changed his appearance. He was no longer the black boy from before.

"Oh, this was left by a monk. He said that the black boy was vicious and owed him a lot of Yuan Stones. He had already run away for a long time, so he left this portrait. Anyone who has clues will be rewarded with Yuan Stones."

The innkeeper calculated on the abacus and casually said, "What kind of world is this? Even a monk's money is cheated. It seems that this black boy's appearance is not wrong. His skin is dark, and his heart is also dark.

“

Zi Chen was so angry that the root of his teeth was itching. In his heart, he had already thought of how that monk would frame him.

"This evil monk, he really shouldn't have had evil intentions."

Zi Chen gritted his teeth and wanted to curse all of the monk's relatives. But when he thought that the monk probably had no relatives, he gave up.

Suddenly, Zi Chen's eyes lit up and an idea came to his mind.

The next day, he went out early to find someone to buy the Firmament Palm Art.

"What, not even a single Yuan Stone?"

"You want five pieces of vitality stones? Are you crazy? This thing wasn't even worth five pieces of vitality stones before."

"Buy it or not, if not, leave."

Zi Chen walked through the streets just to find a Firmament Palm Art.

"Uncle, how much is this Firmament Palm Art?"

On this day, Zi Chen walked through 73 streets, 83 alleys, and 03 intersections.

But still, he did not find anything.

In the evening, he finally received a crumpled Firmament Palm Art for a high price of four Yuan Stones.

Obviously, this person was too cruel and wanted to sell it at a high price. He kept rubbing it in his arms and it became like this.

"It's still not serious."

After returning to his room and closing the door, Zi Chen began to rub his palms again. He had seen the Firmament Palm from that day and knew what it looked like. It was much more severe than this. He continued to rub his palms to achieve the desired effect.

After fiddling with it for a whole night, the Firmament Palm Art finally emitted an ancient yellow light and looked like an ancient book.

"Haha, damn monk, let's see if you will fall this time. You dared to lie to me, I will make you regret it for the rest of your life." Zi Chen sneered. He did not practice but lay on the bed and fell asleep.

The next day, Zi Chen got up late in the morning. After washing his face and rinsing his mouth, his body emitted a faint golden light and his bones cracked. After changing his appearance again, he left.

He was going to find the evil monk and the two of them would have a 'chance' encounter.

Cangli City was very big and there were countless streets. Trying to find a person in the city was almost like looking for a needle in a haystack.

Zi Chen wandered around the streets all day. He did not dare to ask anyone and could only look for the monk's whereabouts by himself. The gathering time of the geniuses was approaching, but he was still short of money. He suddenly became very anxious.

"Did he leave?"

Zi Chen was not willing to give up. He had prepared all this to trick the evil monk. If the evil monk left, it would be a big loss.

He was still hoping that the evil monk would give him vitality stones.

One day, two days, Zi Chen had no clue.

It wasn't until the fourth day that Zi Chen saw a figure. It was a monk with a big belly. His forehead was shiny, and his whole body was shining with a faint golden light. He had a benevolent face, like a Maitreya Buddha. In his hand was a stack of portraits.

Zi Chen's eyesight was very good. He could see at a glance that it was a black boy.

Zi Chen walked past casually and looked around, looking like a curious baby.

"Amitabha. Benefactor, please wait." Suddenly, a Buddhist chant sounded and the evil monk walked towards Zi Chen.

"Master, are you talking about me?" Zi Chen stopped and looked at the monk in confusion. At the same time, he was also very nervous.

One must know that the monk had seen through his disguise that day.

"I don't know if benefactor has seen this person."

The golden light in the monk's eyes flashed and disappeared. He showed the portrait to Zi Chen with a solemn face. Obviously, he did not see any clues.

"Haha, I really fooled him. This supreme secret technique is really extraordinary."

Zi Chen laughed in his heart, but on the surface, he said seriously, "Who is it? I haven't been in Cangli City for long, and I don't know many people."

With that, Zi Chen looked at the portrait and accidentally saw the black boy. His face changed slightly and he exclaimed, "It's him!"

"Amitabha. Benefactor, do you know this person?" The monk's eyes lit up and there was a trace of trembling in his Buddhist chant.

"Of course I know him. How can I not know him? He is an evil man."

Zi Chen said angrily. Suddenly, he seemed to think of something and said, "Master, why are you looking for him? Were you also cheated?"

Finally, he found a clue. The monk just wanted to ask where the black boy was and did not want to talk to Zi Chen at all. However, when he saw the eager expression of the other side, his heart was moved. He said, "Ah, that day this benefactor said that his family was sick and needed vitality stones urgently. I had no choice but to lend him the money for incense and oil for the Buddha. I said that I would return it in two days, but more than twenty days have passed and there is still no trace of him."

Zi Chen was very angry. His family was sick, and the money for incense and oil for the Buddha was really coming out of this monk's mouth. In his heart, he was even more convinced that this was an evil monk, a monk who was evil to the bone.

Moreover, this monk even embezzled the money for incense and oil for the Buddha. It seemed that he was not good at burning incense in the temple.

"This is too abominable. How can the master call such an evil man a benefactor? Bah, calling him Master is more like it. Oh, no, calling him a villain is more like it." Zi Chen gritted his teeth and said.

The monk chanted the name of Buddha twice and said a few more bad things about the black boy. Then, he said, "I don't know where the benefactor met this person. Can you lead the way for this old monk, oh no, this little monk?"

In front of Zi Chen, the monk was very humble.

"Sigh, Great Teacher, don't say anymore. I also want to find him now. I've been looking for him for several days, wanting to settle the score with him, but I can't find him. It's as if he has disappeared from the face of the earth. I think that such an evil person might have been killed by the Li family." Zi Chen sighed softly and said casually.

The monk's heart suddenly moved and his expression was a little unnatural.

If that was the case, then obviously the supreme secret manual had already reached the Li family. However, the other party wanted to collect the Cloud Expelling Palm. Could it be to confuse the world? In fact, the real supreme secret manual had already been placed in the sect.

The more the monk thought about it, the more he felt that something was wrong. His expression was also unnatural. He was so regretful that he wanted to commit suicide. Back then, he had personally placed the secret manual in the hands of the other party and escaped quickly. He even mocked the other party for being an idiot.

"Damn it, I am the idiot." The monk cursed in his heart.

"Of course, I am not sure. He might still be alive. He cheated me of a lot of primordial stones that day."

Zi Chen said again, "Master, if you see this black boy, you must ask for the ten primordial stones for me."

"Oh, okay, okay!" The monk nodded. He did not hear what Zi Chen said at all.

Seeing that Zi Chen had left, the monk suddenly asked, "May I ask the benefactor, how did he cheat you of ten primordial stones? Did he rob you?"

Speaking of this, Zi Chen turned back and angrily said, "It would have been easy to deal with him if he had robbed me, but this bastard is really despicable. He actually said that he would sell me a supreme secret manual, saying that it was worth ten thousand primal stones. He also said that he would take care of me, but he just took ten primal stones from me and gave me the supreme secret manual."
