Chapter 106 Underground World, High Grade Crypt! (seeking subscription)

It is the same as the ghost market in Tianjing City.

The underground ghost market outside Jingyang City also requires tickets.

It's just that the person who collects the tickets is not the owner of the underground ghost market.

The underground ghost city outside Jingyang City also has no owner.

They are just a group of powerful people who occupy the entrance of the underground ghost market, set up several evil formations here, collect tolls from those who want to enter the ghost market, and sell tickets.

The ticket is the voucher for passing the evil formation.

As for this group of people, is there any connection with the people in the ghost city?
Xu Yan felt that there should be some.

Otherwise, how could the people in the ghost market tolerate this group of strong men blocking their doors to sell tickets?
This is not the old birthday star eating arsenic and getting impatient.

The price of tickets to the underground ghost market outside Jingyang City is not high. A ticket costs ten taels of silver, which is almost what an ordinary family of three in Jingyang City needs for a year.

Compare it to the twelve taels of gold in Jiuyuan Ghost City outside Tianjing City.

Undoubtedly cheap.

However, considering the cost of living in Tianjing City, it seems to be similar.

From this point of view, there are still certain rules to follow in the pricing of tickets for ghost markets, and they are not blindly priced.

They seem to be using this method to screen the source of customers and eliminate those poor ghosts who have no money.

Xu Yan was thinking like this, but he honestly bought two tickets, and then the staff in the ghost market...

Well, let's take it as a member of the ghost city.

Anyway, in the eyes of outsiders, the people who can stop at the entrance of the ghost market to sell tickets must be people in the ghost market, who don't know the real situation in the ghost market at all.

After Xu Yan and the two bought the tickets, they followed behind the ghost market staff and entered a demon formation that was filled with ghostly cries and wolves.

The ghost city staff leading the way held a lamp in their hand.

In the white human skin lantern, there are green will-o'-the-wisps dancing, and there is a special smell in the air, which is the smell of burning corpse oil.

After the human skin lantern was lit, there were bursts of wailing sounds from inside, like an accompaniment.

Seeing this scene, Xu Yan frowned slightly, feeling that these guys from the ghost market were a bit too much.

After killing people, the bones are refined into lantern poles and lamp stands, the human skin is made into lampshades, the hair is made into lamp spikes, the flesh and blood are boiled into lamp oil, and even the soul is imprisoned in the lantern as the soundtrack.

At first glance, they are old capitalists, and they should all be hanged on street lamps.

The three of them walked in silence, a faint light was emitted from the human skin lantern, illuminating their feet.

In this faint light, a looming mountain road appeared in front of Xu Yan's eyes, surrounded by dark winds, howling ghosts and wolves, which matched the wails of ghosts in the human skin lantern.

The lantern in the hands of the guides in this ghost market can only illuminate the road under their feet, and it only takes three or four steps.

It gives people a feeling, like walking towards the mountain, along a secluded mountain path, climbing up the cliff.

However, all of this is an illusion, the effect of the formation.

The real situation is that the three are walking down a cave.

The endless darkness around is the black rock of the cave.

The left and right cave passages are only three feet wide, and under the effect of the formation, it gives people an illusion of infinite width.

The gusts of wind and howling ghosts and howling wolves on the road are even simpler. The source is the piles of corpses discarded on both sides of the cave passage, and the poor souls in the imprisoned corpses.

To put it simply, it is a low-level magic formation, pure appearance, it can also deceive some ordinary people and low-level monks who don't know the truth.

Think about it and understand.

If you really want to set up a peerless formation at the entrance of the ghost city, which monsters and monks would dare to enter?
It's good like this, scaring ordinary people and low-level monks, making them feel awe of the ghost city, without making the real hosts and guests feel threatened.

All the arrangements have deep meanings, not as simple as they appear on the surface.

About half a cup of tea time.

Xu Yan suddenly felt a bright light in front of his eyes, a dark river appeared in his field of vision, and clusters of green ghost fires jumped by the river, bringing a little light.

This Yin River is one of the underground water veins under Jingyang City.

On the bank of the Yin River, there are small boats docked, and there are ferrymen on each small boat, just like the Huangquan ferrymen who went to Jiuyuan Ghost City back then.

It's a pity that the underground ghost city outside Jingyang City is far from the Jiuyuan ghost city, and it didn't attract Huangquan as a barrier.

Although there was an air-forbidden formation in the sky above the Yin River, the power of the formation was not enough to make Xu Yan aware of the danger, let alone a fatal crisis.

No underworld, bad review!
No Bianhua, bad review!

High-altitude protection is not good, bad review!
Even the water ghosts in the Yin River are few and far between, and there are less than a hundred of them, which are even worse.

……

All in all, after Xu Yan came to this underground Yinhe, he was extremely disappointed. He only felt that the underground ghost market outside Jingyang City directly lowered the ghost market by several levels.

Xu Yan's mind left his body and went down the Yin River to investigate. Almost instantly, he "saw" the first floor of the ghost city.

Just in front of the lower reaches of the Yin River.

It is less than five miles away from his current location, and it exists in the shape of a small market. It either sells delicious meat, or sells all kinds of yin artifacts, low-level ghosts, and low-level magic weapons.

Occasionally, there were two sellers of elixirs and exercise secret books, and they were all low-level items, which couldn't catch Xu Yan's eyes at all.

It is said to be a ghost market, but it is actually similar to Mortal Square City.

The most powerful ones are just a demon warrior at the martial artist level, as well as a few evil cultivators at the mage level and ghosts and monsters at the ghost level.

"Guests can take a boat to the first floor of the ghost city!"

The ghost city guide with a human skin lantern opened his mouth to remind.

"no need!"

Xu Yan opened his mouth lightly, not wanting to waste time, made a spell, and took the old butler soaring into the sky, ignoring the air-forbidden formation above the Yin River, and flew directly towards the lower reaches of the Yin River.

Seeing this scene, the ghost market guides were stunned and couldn't help but gasp.

"Hiss, is this the real Yinshen?"

…………

Follow the guidance of the soul chasing disk.

Xu Yan restrained his breath, led the old butler, and quickly flew over the first few floors of the ghost city.

He found this underground ghost city outside Jingyang City very interesting.

The levels of the ghost market are not so much layers, but rather the gathering points of casual cultivators on both sides of the Yin River.

The small market has only a few dozen people, and the large one is an underground market that can accommodate thousands of people. There should be no shortage of houses and shops, just like a small town.

Especially after reaching the ninth floor, the situation in the ghost market has undergone a qualitative change.

Subterranean ghost cities appeared in front of Xu Yan, either surrounded by large formations, or garrisoned by yin soldiers, and some ghost cities even connected to the yin world, forming a ghost creature.

Such a situation could no longer be described as a ghost city, but an underground ghost country.

There are many demon forces, occupying the Yin acupoints and the treasure lands of the earth veins, fighting each other and conquering each other.

A small underground ghost city in Jingyang City is like an underground labyrinth world, with intertwined karst caves and criss-crossing rivers. The entire underground land for hundreds of miles is about to be hollowed out.

"Eighteen-story ghost city??"

"Tsk tsk, if you really want to count on one floor per stronghold, the underground outside Jingyang City is more than an eighteen-story ghost city."

"There must be 28 floors, 38 floors, [-] floors!"

Xu Yan shook his head with emotion, and with the help of the soul chasing disk, he constantly adjusted his flight direction, and searched for traces of the white wolf ghost along the criss-crossing caves and underground rivers.

There is a saying that people go to high places and water flows to low places.

This Jingzhou's land vein treasure cave is the same as Dongtian blessed land. The best location must be directly under the Jingyang City of Zhoucheng.

However, such a place must not be something that demons can peek at.

The best treasure acupoints must be occupied by the Dagan court, the court of gods, and the ghosts and gods of Fengdu.

For example, the Zhou Chenghuang Temple in Jingzhou, the Palace of the Imperial City Lord, the House of Thousand Households of the Zhenmagic Division, and the Earth Temple of the Mountain God outside Jingzhou City, etc., are all located above the dragon vein cavitation, occupying the best ground orifice cavitation in Jingzhou. , a blessed land and caves.

Secondly, the various martial arts sects, immortal sects, powerful families, etc. in Jingzhou also have the upper-grade earth-orifice air pockets.

In the end, it will be the turn of the monsters and small and medium-sized sect forces.

These people fought and killed each other for a good earth orifice air hole, just like eating and drinking water, it couldn't be more normal.

And Jingyang City, as the island city of Jingzhou, is also the place where the land of Jingzhou gathers.

The ground orifice air pockets here are undoubtedly the most, and the quality is the best.

As a result, the surrounding areas of Jingyang City, as well as the underground, also had the most fights, almost every day there were monsters fighting for a good ground orifice air hole.

no way!
The four elements of practice: Dharma, wealth, partner, and land!
A good earth orifice air point is the representative of "earth". Just like a large earth hole, it can gather the essence of heaven and earth and store the treasures of heaven and earth. foundation.

Even the essence in the crypt can improve one's physique, strengthen one's cultivation aptitude and roots.

If it weren't for this, those aristocratic families, wealthy businessmen, etc., would not be overwhelmed and want to move to the big cities.

Just like the white wolf ghost.

Why is he still reluctant to leave the Jingyang City area even though he has been wanted by Zhenmagic Division and included in the must-kill list?
To put it bluntly, I just don't want to give up the precious acupoint of the earth orifice that I have finally occupied.

"Hey, it turned out to be a high-grade crypt, or a high-grade crypt that hasn't been exploited before!"

"I seem to understand why this white wolf ghost is reluctant to leave."

Following the guidance of the soul-chasing disk, Xu Yan soon came to an underground city named "Bai Ling City", and looked directly below the city with some surprise.

The Bailing City in front of me is called a city, but it actually looks like a castle. It covers a small area, no more than two miles around. The real area may not be as large as the City Lord's Mansion in Jingyang City.

But under the investigation of Xu Yan's [Golden Eyes of Luck], there is a high-grade crypt under such a small castle that even the Jingzhou Town Magic Division Qianhu does not have.

If this matter gets out.

Perhaps it was enough to drive the entire Jingzhou crazy, attracting many monsters, great sects of immortality, sects of martial arts, and even the Division of Zhenmagic and the Dagan imperial court to attack.

Because a high-grade crypt is really too rare.

The entire Jingzhou is less than two hands away, and it is all occupied by some top forces.

How can a little demon ghost occupy a high-grade crypt by himself?
Not to mention that the white wolf demon has just broken through the realm of the ghost king, even if he is a peak ghost king, he may not be able to keep this high-grade crypt.

Because according to the records of the town magic division.

There are only seven high-grade crypts in Jingzhou, and none of the top-grade crypts.

Among the seven top-grade crypts, two are located under Jingyang City, one is located under the City Lord's Mansion in Jingyang City, and the other is located under the Zhou Chenghuang Temple in Jingyang City.

Of the other five top-grade crypts, one is occupied by the Shangjing Palace of the Immortal Sect of Jingdi; one is located in the Jingjiang River and is occupied by the Jingjiang Water God;

The last one is held by several Immortal Dao and Martial Dao sect forces.

Even the Zhenmagic Department, a violent organization that specializes in targeting demons and ghosts, was not assigned one.

From this, we can know the preciousness and rarity of the top-grade crypt.

Now no one expected that there would be a third high-grade crypt under Jingyang City.

If this matter gets out, it will definitely cause shock in the whole of China.

Because this means that Jingzhou has the resources of a high-grade Daozhou. In the next thousand years, or ten thousand years later, the three high-grade air pockets below Jingyang City will have a high probability of merging together to form a top-grade crypt.

And the top-grade crypt is the foundation of a high-grade Daozhou.

"The most important thing is that in every undeveloped crypt, there is a great probability that extraordinary treasures of heaven and earth will be bred."

"This white wolf ghost has been occupying the top-grade crypt and has not opened the crypt, which means that the fairy treasure in the crypt has not been taken out, or it has not been conceived yet."

"If it wasn't, the white wolf ghost would have run away with the treasure long ago, why would it have been hiding in the underground ghost market like it is now."

When Xu Yan thought of this, his heart became hot.

If it was a treasure of heaven and earth conceived in an ordinary crypt, he might not pay attention to it.

But the treasures of heaven and earth conceived in the top-grade crypt are different.

Because the treasure conceived in the top-grade crypt is probably an innate thing, and it is the main material that can be used to refine immortal weapons and divine weapons.

Of course, the treasures conceived in the top-grade crypt can only reach this level.

Generally, it is holy medicine, fairy gold, god gold, earth mother, Lingbao embryo, etc.

Although it belongs to the top treasure in the world, it is enough to attract the eyes of the gods and gods, but it cannot make people ascend to the sky in one step.

It would be different if it was changed to a top-grade crypt. It is very possible to breed immortal medicines, immortal treasures, innate fetishes, etc. Even if an ordinary person gets it, he can reach the sky in one step, and the future is limitless.

There are even records in ancient books that an ordinary monk once obtained a plant of immortal medicine from the top-grade crypt, and after taking it, he directly became the Yang God and became an immortal through the nine-day thunder calamity.

This person is Deze Shangxian, a top immortal god in the history of the human race.

Deze, Deze!
Get the grace of heaven and earth and become a fairy!
In addition, there is another record that someone got a jade ax from the Jipin crypt.

The jade ax is made by nature, masters killing, cutting mountains and splitting seas, its power is unparalleled, it is one of the most terrifying magic weapons in the world, it is not forged after the day after tomorrow, it is an innate artifact.

The monk held a jade ax to fight all the way through the thorns and thorns, fighting against the arrogance of all races, and finally split the nine-day thunder calamity and became a fairy.

Later generations respect him as the Jade Ax Immortal!
These talents are the real places of luck, they can be called the protagonists of the era, and the sons of God.

In contrast, the opportunity of the White Wolf Demon Ghost is nothing, at most it is a little luck, and it is more than a few grades away from the son of luck who suppressed an era.

It's even hard to say whether this white wolf ghost is a little lucky or a treasure boy.

Because at this time, the top-grade crypt was obviously not fully conceived, even if Xu Yan hadn't come, Zhenmensi would not let the white wolf ghost survive for too long.

At that time, it would be no wonder that the top-grade crypt and the treasures in the crypt can be kept.

Xu Yan was thinking like this, but his footsteps didn't stop. He took the old butler around Bailing City, making sure that the white wolf demon was behind Bailing City, and then put away the soul-chasing disc, thinking about how to get the white wolf away. The ghost is brought out.

It's not that he's afraid of any traps in the castle in front of him.

The main reason is that they are worried that in the process of fighting, they will accidentally destroy the gestation of the top-grade crypt, causing the leakage of earth energy, and affecting the final quality and potential of the treasure point.

It would be a big loss if one's own high-grade crypts were really lacking because of the white wolf ghost, and eventually the quality would drop.

So he had to think of a way to lure the white wolf ghost out of Bailing City, and then kill the white wolf ghost by surprise, without giving him time to react.

Otherwise, if that guy exposes the news that there is a high-grade crypt under Bailing City, or opens the high-grade crypt, it will be difficult for him to obtain the treasures in the crypt if he wants to monopolize the high-grade crypt.

thought here.

As soon as Xu Yan thought about it, he quickly paid attention, and said to He Yong, the old housekeeper, "Let's go, let's go to a nearby city to have a look!"
