"There are so many medicinal herbs and monster materials here, why not buy some and use them to refine pills."
Wu Chen was extremely surprised. There were so many medicinal herbs here, and some of them were hard to find outside. If warriors came across such things outside, they would generally sell them at a high price to those in need, such as alchemists.
However, this is the Xuan Yue Secret Realm, and the people who come here are basically all warriors and cultivators, while people like alchemists are very rare, so naturally, few people can collect these medicinal herbs.
Because there were no alchemists, naturally, elixirs were extremely precious. He had walked for so long and seen so many stalls, but he had never seen anyone selling elixirs.
Seeing this, Wu Chen couldn't help but have a sudden idea. Could he buy the medicinal herbs here, refine pills, and then sell them? No, why should he sell them? He could just exchange them directly for things he needed, such as spiritual treasures.
Lingbao, although he didn't need this thing, his Dragon Slaying Sword did. He was an absolutely greedy ghost, an absolute foodie. All the spiritual treasures he got were swallowed up by him. However, so many spiritual treasures were still far from enough for the Dragon Slaying Sword. If it wanted to be promoted, it was still a long way to go. If he relied on himself to kill people and seize treasures, it was unknown how long it would take for the Dragon Slaying Sword to be successfully promoted.
In this case, why not use the people here to help him collect spiritual treasures? They may not be willing to give up top-grade spiritual treasures, but I believe many people are willing to give up mid-grade and low-grade spiritual treasures, especially those who have top-grade spiritual treasures. Mid-grade and low-grade spiritual treasures are of no use to them at all. These people are likely to exchange those extra spiritual treasures for elixirs for him.
This is a very good way. On the one hand, you can collect those precious medicinal herbs, and on the other hand, you can also collect spiritual treasures to feed the Dragon Slaying Sword into, making its power even stronger. A middle-grade spiritual treasure may not have much effect on the Dragon Slaying Sword, but what about ten, a hundred, or a thousand? If you accumulate them in this way, the energy provided to the Dragon Slaying Sword will be considerable.
Thinking of this, Wu Chen couldn't help but get extremely excited. The stronger the power of the Dragon Slaying Sword, the stronger he would be, because the Dragon Slaying Sword was his natal magic weapon. After it broke through his cultivation level and increased his strength, the power of the Dragon Slaying Sword would also increase. While the Dragon Slaying Sword absorbed the magic treasure and increased its strength, it would also feed back some of its power to him, increasing his strength. In this way, his strength would surely increase rapidly, and he should be able to reach the Zhenwu realm soon.
However, if he wants to implement this plan, it may not be enough for him alone, and he needs the help of others. As for people, he has no shortage of them now. There are so many people in Hengling Territory, and he can call them to help him.
That’s settled.
Soon, Wu Chen went over the entire idea in his mind and was extremely surprised. He firmly believed that he would be able to make another breakthrough soon and completely advance into the Zhenwu realm.
However, the purpose of his coming to Shiji City was not for this, but to gather information and determine the exact location of the ancient city mentioned by the Fifth Prince, as well as the specific time of its opening. This was the purpose of his coming to Shiji City.
As for inquiring for information, Wu Chen always chose to go to places like inns, restaurants, and pavilions, so this time was no exception.
Soon, he saw a three-story pavilion where many young people gathered. They were drinking tea and chatting. The tea was brought in from outside, or it might have been bought from those who set up stalls to sell things.
Wu Chen's arrival did not attract any attention. He went up to the second floor and found a seat to sit down.
"When will that ancient bronze palace open? I can't wait."
"According to the people in Jinshayu, it will take about a month to open."
"One month, is that that long?"
"I don't know about that. Anyway, we just have to wait. It's no big deal. A month is just a blink of an eye."
One month
Wu Chen was stunned. It seemed that he came here a little early.
However, this is also a good thing. He can take advantage of this month to collect some spiritual treasures, enhance his strength, and make some necessary preparations for the treasure hunt after the ancient bronze palace is opened.
"We still have a month to go. What can we do? We can't just stay in this stone city and wait. We have to do something."
"What do you want to do? Our most important thing is to practice hard and increase our strength. Other than that, everything else is not important."
"Practice is naturally important, there is no doubt about that."
"If you are bored, you can leave Shiji City and go to the surrounding areas for training."
"Forget about the training. This Xuanyue Secret Realm is so terrifying. The place outside is too dangerous. If you don't have enough strength, you will die if you go out."
"That's right. Stay in Shiji City and wait for the opening of the Ancient Bronze Palace. Then, seize the treasures, increase your strength, and participate in the election of all nations. This is the best path."
Hearing this, Wu Chen shook his head but said nothing. This was the Xuan Yue Secret Realm, full of dangers. The situation in the city was relatively better. Once you left the city and went outside, some powerful and strange things might pop up at any time. If you were not careful, you would be caught and killed.
If you don’t have a certain level of strength, you must never leave the city, otherwise you won’t even know how you died.
"Who is Wu Chen?"
At this moment, a loud shout was suddenly heard, which immediately attracted everyone's attention.
"Looking for me?"
Frowning, Wu Chen looked down. At the entrance of the first floor, several young men were standing there, led by a young man in a blood-stained shirt. At this moment, they were looking around, as if they were looking for something.
Looking at these people, Wu Chen didn't recognize any of them. Since he didn't know them, there was no way he could make enemies with them.
Thinking of this, Wu Chen shook his head. Perhaps these people were not here to find him.
“Isn’t this Lei Yan?”
"Lei Yan, what Lei Yan?"
"Lei Yan from Tiefeng Territory is very powerful. I heard that he once tried to reach the third level of the True Martial Realm, but failed."
"Have you ever challenged the third level of the True Martial Realm? Is it that terrifying?"
"Looking at him like this, is he looking for someone?"
"I don't know. Let's wait and see."
