After leaving Jinhai Tower, Han Changming strolled on the street.
Han Changming was both surprised and delighted to have a True Soul Pill on him. If he had not come to participate in the All Spirits Conference, he would probably have to go to dangerous places to search for rare treasures to break through to the Spirit Transformation Stage.
He walked around and looked around, his face calm, but he was very nervous, not because of the True Soul Pill, but because of the Tidal Divine Iron.
He didn't know what secrets the Tidal Divine Iron had, and why the people of the Wanling Merchant Alliance took it so seriously. Logically speaking, a force as powerful as the Wanling Merchant Alliance should value integrity, but there are exceptions to everything.
Money can be tempting, but Han Changming dare not gamble his life on it.
He didn't dare to return to his residence rashly and wandered around the street.
Three hours later, Han Changming appeared in the bluestone square.
There are many Nascent Soul cultivators setting up stalls here, selling a wide variety of things.
After walking around for a while, a heated argument broke out and one of the voices sounded familiar.
Han Changming looked towards the source of the sound and saw Hai Dalong.
He remembered the Soul-Destroying Pearl that Hai Dalong had mentioned before, and his heart moved, and he walked over quickly.
A tall and thin young man in a green shirt was arguing with Hai Dalong. The young man in the green shirt was holding a piece of white ore. The white ore had no spiritual fluctuations and looked like an ordinary object.
"The goods are not what they say, and you are still being stubborn, brother Haidao?"
The young man in green shirt said with a cold face.
"Humph, you don't know the goods, and you say my goods are not what I ordered?"
Hai Dalong sneered, looking very confident.
"You told me that this is the Frost Moon Divine Jade. At first, it can indeed emit a strange cold aura, and the Infant Fire can weaken that strange cold aura. But after I bought it, it became like this. Do you think I don't know the value of it?"
The young man in green shirt frowned and said.
"I told you, this is the special Hanyue Divine Jade from the Xuanming Star Region. You verified it beforehand. I didn't force you to buy it. Now that the money and the goods have been paid, there is no return."
Hai Dalong argued that he did not think he was selling fake goods.
"What Xuanming Star Region? I have never heard of it. I am from the Nangong family. If you know what's good for you, Brother Hai, please return my things to me."
The young man in green clothes revealed his home address and threatened.
Hai Dalong chuckled and did not answer.
"Okay, Eighteenth Brother, forget it."
A gentle male voice suddenly sounded.
Han Changming turned his head and saw a middle-aged man with a fair complexion walking towards him. He had a round face, small eyes, and a big belly, like a pregnant woman in her tenth month.
"Hey, Fellow Daoist Nangong, long time no see."
Han Changming greeted him with a smile. The middle-aged man was none other than Nangong Yuefeng.
After not seeing each other for many years, Nangong Yuefeng has already entered the Nascent Soul stage.
"Friend Han, why are you here?"
Nangong Yuefeng was a little surprised when he saw Han Changming.
"This is a long story, let's find a place to discuss it in detail!"
Han Changming said politely that he still wanted to use the power of the Nangong family to return to the open sea!
Nangong Yuefeng nodded and told the young man in green shirt, "Yuelin, let me introduce you to Fellow Daoist Han. Since it's an exchange, there's nothing much to say. You can only blame yourself for your poor eyesight."
"What do you mean by poor eyesight? There is nothing wrong with my stuff, you just can't see it. The Frost Moon Divine Jade is a fifth-level refining material, produced under a glacier that's been there for ten thousand years. I'm exchanging it with you out of kindness, but you, with your poor eyesight, are blaming me for it."
Hai Dalong retorted bluntly.
"Humph, you only know how to talk. No matter how much you say, I won't believe you. Everyone should not believe him. Is he a liar?"
Nangong Yuelin said sarcastically.
Hai Dalong smiled contemptuously and said nothing.
"Okay, let's find a place to talk with Fellow Daoist Han."
Nangong Yuefeng gave the order, looking somewhat displeased. Nangong Yuelin was deceived and couldn't swallow this anger. Making a big deal out of it would only bring shame to the family and would not bring any benefits.
"No, I have other things to do, so I won't make do with you. You can just catch up with Fellow Daoist Han!"
After saying this, Nangong Yuelin strode away.
Nangong Yuefeng shook his head and said to Han Changming, "I'm sorry to have embarrassed you, Fellow Daoist Han, let's go! Let's find a place to have a good chat."
Han Changming followed Nangong Yuefeng away, and the onlookers dispersed.
"Fellow Daoist Hai, this is the first Daoist friend you have deceived?"
Someone joked.
"Humph, they are the ones who don't know the value of things. I, Hai, never lie to anyone, and I can't blame you. You haven't even left the Chiyang Star Region, so how much knowledge can you have?"
Hai Dalong said proudly.
"Come on! We are all Nascent Soul cultivators, how much knowledge can you have?"
"That's right. You should be thankful that this is the market town. If you were outside the market town, I'm afraid many cultivators would cause trouble for you."
Hai Dalong smiled contemptuously and ignored him.
······
Qingming Tower, a private room on the second floor.
Han Changming and Nangong Yuefeng were drinking tea and chatting, talking and laughing.
"Space crack, I see. I thought Fellow Daoist Han could use the Wanfa Sect's teleportation array."
Nangong Yuefeng suddenly understood.
"The Wanfa Sect's teleportation array? I would like to borrow it, but the Wanfa Sect may not give me the courtesy."
Han Changming chuckled. He was secretly surprised. In this case, the Wanfa Sect should have the support of a Divine Transformation cultivator, otherwise other major forces would have come to the door long ago. A teleportation array that can teleport to the Zhongtian Continent involves too much profit.
"That's true. I haven't seen you for many years. I didn't expect that Brother Han has already formed a fetus. Congratulations!"
Nangong Yuefeng changed the subject and praised with a smile.
"By the way, Fellow Daoist Nangong, when will you return to the outer sea? Can you take me with you?"
Han Changming asked politely that if he could return to the open sea, he would definitely purchase a large amount of immortal cultivation resources and return to the family to help the family train a group of masters.
"I don't plan to return to the outer sea, nor do I want to. Fellow Daoist Han, if you want to return to the outer sea, you can only use the Wanfa Sect's teleportation array, or have a Divine Transformation cultivator escort you personally."
Nangong Yuefeng sighed.
Han Changming frowned and asked, "Is it because of the demon race?"
Nangong Yuefeng nodded and said, "That's right. Several decades ago, a war broke out between humans and demons in the outer sea, and the humans won in the end. However, the demons are not pushovers either. If there were no Divine Transformation cultivators to escort us, our Nangong family might not be able to travel back and forth safely."
"Is HSBC Business Alliance also unable to travel back and forth?"
Han Changming asked somewhat unwillingly.
"I don't know, but it's very dangerous to return to the open sea now. I advise you to give up this idea! Zhongtian Continent is rich in immortal cultivation resources. Fellow Daoist Han might as well stay here to cultivate. When conditions permit in the future, it won't be too late to return to the open sea."
Nangong Yuefeng suggested, and then he changed his tone and continued, "Maybe Daoist Han has advanced to the Spiritualization Stage and can return to the outer sea on his own."
"Fellow Daoist Nangong, you are joking. It is not so easy to advance to the Spiritual Transformation Stage."
Han Changming smiled bitterly.
"I'm not kidding. If we were in the open sea, I wouldn't say this. Fellow Daoist Han must know how rich the immortal cultivation resources are in Zhongtian Continent. As long as he is willing to spend the spirit stones, Fellow Daoist Han can leave Xuanyang Star and travel to other immortal cultivation stars to look for opportunities."
Nangong Yuefeng said solemnly.
The biggest difference between Zhongtian Continent and the outer sea is that Zhongtian Continent has a star field teleportation array that can teleport to other immortal cultivation stars to experience the real immortal cultivation world. While staying in the outer sea, being able to form an infant is already very good, and there are not many cultivators who have reached the state of spiritual transformation.
Han Changming nodded, feeling a little disappointed. He had originally wanted to rely on the power of the Nangong family to return to the open sea, but now it seemed hopeless.
"Fellow Daoist Nangong, do you have a way to contact our clansmen in the outer sea?"
Han Changming continued to ask, since he couldn't return to the open sea for the time being, it would be good to report his safety to the patriarch.
Many members of the Nangong family stayed in the open sea, so there should be a way to contact them.
"There is a large communication array that can be used to contact, but it will not be used easily unless it is a major event. Activating the large communication array requires the consumption of Xuanguan Divine Crystals. This material is very valuable. Even I do not have the authority to do so."
Nangong Yuefeng looked embarrassed. He knew that Han Changming wanted to inform his tribe members, but he really couldn't help.
The Nangong family does not have much friendship with Han Changming, so it is impossible for them to help Han Changming easily. The main reason is that it is not easy to collect the Xuanguan Divine Crystals.
Han Changming was a little disappointed, but he could also understand that since they were not related, there was no reason for the Nangong family to help him.
He took out a glowing compass from his arms, entered a spell, and a line of small words appeared on it.
"Fellow Daoist Nangong, I have something to take care of. Let's talk next time."
Han Changming said goodbye and left.
Nangong Yuefeng nodded and watched Han Changming leave.
After a cup of tea, Han Changming returned to his residence, and Han Debiao and the other two also returned.
Han Debiao's face was solemn, as if something big had happened.
"Fifth uncle, is the news true?"
Han Changming asked.
"That's what Friend Hai said, but his request is too high. He wants to exchange it for a panacea that can assist in reaching the Spiritual Transformation Stage."
Han Debiao sighed and told about what he had seen and heard.
"Friend Hai? Is this person called Hai Dalong?"
Han Changming asked with a frown, having a bad feeling in his heart.
"That's right. He showed it to me and it was exactly the same as what was recorded in the classics. It is indeed a top-grade Transformation Pill."
Han Debiao said somewhat helplessly that Hai Dalong's requirements were too high.
He couldn't come up with a magic pill to help people reach the Spiritual Transformation Stage, so he could only tell Han Changming and see if Han Changming had any solution.
Han Changming frowned. He took a great risk to get a Soul-Calming Pill. He was asked to exchange it for the Transformation Pill, and he was reluctant to do so.
Everyone has selfish desires, and Han Changming is not a saint.
"Husband, didn't you get the fifth-level spiritual wine? Why not go find Senior He and see if you can exchange him for a magic medicine that can help you reach the Spiritual Transformation Stage."
Ye Xin suggested, she didn't know that Han Changming had obtained a True Soul Pill.
"I'm thinking about how to find this Senior He. I don't know where he is right now."
Han Changming said with a frown.
"Let's go out and look for it together. We should be able to find it. If not, we can ask Fairy Fang for help."
"Yes! Let's go to the wine shop first, and if we can't find it, we can ask Fairy Fang for help."
Han Debiao nodded in agreement.
"Okay, let's do it!"
Han Changming agreed, and the four of them split up to look for Taoist Zihulu.
······
In a secret room, Li Yan stood next to a magic circle that was over a hundred feet in size. There was a huge groove in the center of the magic circle, with a piece of green crystal placed in it. The magic circle was covered with countless mysterious runes.
She took out a square token that was shining with green light, and with a slight shake of her wrist, a green light shot out and disappeared into the teleportation array.
The next moment, the magic circle shook violently, and countless runes rushed out. After spinning around, they turned into the shadow of a middle-aged man with a leopard head, round eyes, and a face full of tiger beard.
"Li Yan, how can you use the large-scale communication array to contact me? What's the urgent matter?"
The middle-aged man looked a little unhappy.
"Alliance leader, didn't you ask me to keep an eye out for treasures on the destroyed starship of the Seven Immortals Merchant Alliance? I found some tidal iron, exactly as you said. I used my secret treasure to observe and found some demon characters, but I couldn't see them clearly."
Li Yan spoke in a flattering tone and took out three black iron pieces.
The middle-aged man's face changed, and he said, "You stay in Wanling Market, don't leave. I will send someone to pick you up right away. Tell me how to get these three Tidal God Irons?"
Li Yan told the truth again, and she had made a great contribution.
"Okay, okay, okay, you've done a great job. I won't treat you unfairly. Hold a few more underground auctions to see if you can collect more Tidal Iron. I remind you to think twice before you act and don't ruin the reputation of our Wanling Merchant Alliance."
The middle-aged man reminded.
"I understand."
Li Yan nodded. She hesitated for a moment and asked curiously, "Alliance leader, what exactly is written on it? I can't see the real content even with the secret treasure."
"The main cultivation method of the Seven Star Demon Emperor. The demon tribe received the news and sent people to attack the starship of the Seven Immortals Merchant Alliance."
The middle-aged man explained.
"The main cultivation method of the Seven-Star Demon Emperor? It only contains a few pieces of Tidal Divine Iron. The content recorded is probably incomplete!"
Li Yan asked in confusion.
"That's not something you need to consider. Your mission is to collect a few more Tidal Irons and guard the three Tidal Irons until my people arrive. Do you understand?"
The middle-aged man ordered in a tone that left no room for questioning.
"Yes, I understand."
Li Yan agreed readily with a respectful look.
The middle-aged man's shadow blurred and disappeared.
"Seven Star Demon Emperor, it turned out to be the main practice of this senior. No wonder the demons attacked the starship of the Seven Immortals Merchant Alliance. I was wondering how a starship could be destroyed so easily by a seventh-level demon beast."
Li Yan muttered to herself with a thoughtful expression on her face.
She took out a light green magic disk, entered a magic formula, and asked in a deep voice: "How is it? Did you catch up?"
"We have caught up with him. We now know where he lives, but his identity is unknown. We are still investigating."
A respectful male voice came from the Dharma Plate.
"When this person returns to his residence, notify me immediately and I will go find him myself."
Li Yan ordered.
"Yes, Elder Li."
After putting away the ritual plate, Li Yan walked out.
······
On a busy street, Taoist Zihulu was mixed in the crowded crowd.
He sniffed a few times, his eyes lit up, he swallowed his saliva, and suddenly quickened his pace.
Not long after, he appeared at the door of a teahouse called Qingminglou and strode in.
I came to the door of a private room on the third floor and knocked.
"The old man is here."
Taoist Zi Hulu said in a deep voice.
The door opened and Han Changming walked out.
"Senior He, I have been waiting for you for a long time."
Han Changming said politely that Wanling Market was very big, and Han Changming couldn't find Taoist Zihulu, so he simply lured the snake out of its hole. He took out the fifth-level spirit wine given by Jin Linglong, opened the lid of the pot, and used the aroma of the wine to lure Taoist Zihulu.
Taoist Zihulu strode in. On the table were an exquisite wine pot and two plates of snacks.
"Just tell me what you have to say!"
Taoist Zihulu said in a deep voice. He could naturally see that Han Changming had something to ask for.
