Divine King of Honour-Chapter 759 - 758: Unexpected Encounter with an Acquaintance
"There's a continent ahead, it should be the Tianlan Continent."
Xuan Hong said as he looked at the black dot ahead that was gradually getting larger.
Xu Nian also watched the continent in front of him, his eyes emitting a faint divine light.
Is this the Tianlan Continent?
The place all cultivators from the Tianhen Continent dream of?
Indeed, the Spiritual Energy here is forty to fifty times richer than that of the Tianhen Continent.
Xu Nian was somewhat surprised as he felt this surge of Spiritual Energy.
Compared to the Cultivation World's Spiritual Energy, the Tianhen Continent really is like a primitive and barbaric land.
No wonder the cultivators of the Tianlan Continent possess high cultivation at such a young age.
It seems now, the Heaven and Earth Spiritual Energy also plays a significant role.
"Let's go! To shore!"
Xu Nian, leading Hong Xiang and Xuan Hong, flew towards the port of Tianlan Continent.
The Tianlan Continent isn't entirely made up of cultivators, many mortals and low-level cultivators also reside here.
It's just that due to the Heaven and Earth Spiritual Energy, there are relatively fewer mortals.
The place where Xu Nian and his companions landed was a mortal city on the Tianlan Continent.
Xu Nian had also learned from Hong Xiang previously
about a very peculiar feature of the Tianlan Continent.
That is, the outer periphery of the continent is mostly made up of mortal cities.
Deeper in lie various Cultivation Sects.
On this continent, there are no empires, everything is governed naturally.
Of course, it's not true to say there isn't any form of governance.
On the Tianlan Continent, there are three Sects stationed, and they act as the rulers of this land.
The three Sects are the Heavenly Array Sect, the Lingxi Sect, and the Tianxing Sect.
Qingcheng Sect is not on this planet.
Besides these, there are several significant families.
Their power, however, is much lesser than that of the Three Great Sects.
Of course, these Three Great Sects are considered top forces on the Tianlan Continent,
but when compared to the nine major star systems, they are practically nothing.
Xu Nian and the trio proceeded to walk into the city.
Even though this is the periphery of the continent, where Cultivators are rarely seen,
one could still occasionally bump into one or two while walking the streets.
The goods sold in this city were much higher-level than those on the Tianhen Continent.
Some treasures rare on the Tianhen Continent were casually displayed here.
Even Spiritual Treasures used by Cultivators were being sold in shops.
Such a disparity deeply moved Xu Nian.
"Eh? What's that..."
Suddenly, Xu Nian's gaze was attracted by an object as black and stone-like.
Clearly, it was not a stone.
But a Low Grade Spiritual Medicine.
Named Black Dragon Phoenix Dance Grass.
It's a peculiar herb that looks like a stone but is in fact a plant.
The reason why Black Dragon Phoenix Dance Grass is named that way is because it resembles a stone.
But once cut open, one would witness a spectacle of dragons and phoenixes dancing.
It can strongly nourish a person's soul.
This Black Dragon Phoenix Dance Grass is one of the four auxiliary herbs for the Spirit King Pill.
The Spirit King Pill is a Top-grade Pill.
It's also one of the methods the Wentian Demon Sovereign told him to use to awaken Emperor Ye Tian.
Therefore, Xu Nian must gather the three main ingredients and four auxiliary ingredients.
The three main ingredients are: Black Jade Sky Spirit Mushroom, Taichu Water, and an Azure-water Green Bamboo Branch that's more than a hundred thousand years old.
As for the four supplementary ingredients, they are: Black Dragon Phoenix Dance Grass, Snow Falling Fruit, Ten-thousand-year-old Black Blood Ginseng, and Red Phoenix Scorpion Tail Snake Crystal.
Xu Nian already had the Black Jade Sky Spirit Mushroom in hand.
The Taichu Water and the Azure-water Green Bamboo Branch that's more than a hundred thousand years old were incredibly rare, and it would be difficult to find them.
The other four supplementary ingredients were also challenging, but with some effort, they could be found.
Xu Nian was not in a hurry to search.
He just didn't expect that he had only just arrived in the Cultivation World
When he came across one of the four supplementary ingredients, the Black Dragon Phoenix Dance Grass.
Since it had appeared before him, naturally, Xu Nian had no reason not to take it.
Thus, Xu Nian stopped in his tracks and looked toward the vendor.
What Xu Nian hadn't expected was that this vendor turned out to be an acquaintance.
Glancing at the shiny bald head and the fat earlobes, Xu Nian recognized him at once.
This monk was none other than the one who had sold Black Wind to him, the monk whose Dharma name was Bu Keng.
Xu Nian was somewhat surprised.
He had originally thought their previous meeting was a fleeting encounter, never expecting to meet again now.
At this moment, the monk also seemed to notice someone pausing and opened his eyes to take a look at Xu Nian, a touch of surprise appearing on his face as well.
Clearly, he too recognized Xu Nian.
He hadn't expected Xu Nian to appear here.
"Bu Keng?" Xu Nian tried to confirm.
"Haha, I never imagined I'd meet an old customer! How is it, is the Earth-shattering Demon Dog I sold you last time still useful?" Bu Keng, seeing Xu Nian speak, immediately laughed heartily.
His face was extremely excited.
Xu Nian was speechless for a moment.
If Black Wind were here, he'd probably be ready to kill this guy.
"Master Bu Keng, how come you are here?" Xu Nian asked in surprise.
Upon hearing Xu Nian's words, Bu Keng smiled slightly.
He glanced at Xuan Hong and Hong Xiang, who were behind Xu Nian, and his expression showed surprise.
The surprise upon looking at Xuan Hong clearly came from recognizing Xuan Hong's extraordinary cultivation.
And his surprise when looking at Hong Xiang was due to admiring Hong Xiang's beauty.
However, Bu Keng was very astute, smiling at Xu Nian and saying, "This poor monk wanders the four seas and finds home anywhere. Naturally, I go wherever I wish. Those heaven and earth restrictions are decent, but they can't hinder this monk's steps. As for you, patron, your fortune is exceptional, a person of destined prosperity indeed!"
Xu Nian smiled.
Although Bu Keng was a monk.
His flattery was top-notch.
Initially, it was out of curiosity that Xu Nian had bought Black Wind.
But in the end, it was not a loss.
After all, Black Wind was a Demon Beast with a Divine Beast bloodline.
"Is the patron interested in any of the treasures in this poor monk's possession? If there's anything you fancy, feel free to buy. Since you're an old customer, I'll give you a discount, 10 percent off." Bu Keng said, smiling, his white teeth flashing particularly bright.
Xu Nian smiled wryly.
And decided not to beat around the bush.
Since the guy was Bu Keng, he definitely didn't recognize the true value.
He must also know how precious this Black Dragon Phoenix Dance Grass was.
"How much for this?" Xu Nian pointed at the Black Dragon Phoenix Dance Grass and said.
"Ah, patron, you really have an eye for excellence. This is absolutely the most precious treasure here, the Black Dragon Phoenix Dance Grass, a top-quality item among low grade spiritual medicines. And mine is the best of the best. No more nonsense, ten thousand low grade spirit stones, minus the discount for you, nine thousand. What do you think?" Bu Keng replied, grinning.
"Nine thousand? Are you trying to rob us?" Hong Xiang, who usually had great restraint, also couldn't help but widen her eyes in protest.
Xu Nian shook his head too, put down the Black Dragon Phoenix Dance Grass, and prepared to leave.
A low grade spiritual medicine typically wouldn't cost more than a thousand spirit stones at most.
This guy started with ten thousand, really taking them for newcomers ripe for the plucking, trying to fleece them.
"Hey, hey, don't go!"
Seeing Xu Nian about to leave, Bu Keng suddenly became anxious.
