Chapter 565: Wonderful Stone City

Sigma Hitesh

Shi Yan was startled. When he realized that it was Ye Chang Feng, he smiled.

It’d been several years after they had separated in the Dark Magnetic Noxious Mist, Shi Yan went to the Divine Great Land and the Dead Soul Mountain range. He thought that he could meet Ye Chang Feng there. However, this brat had gone to seek his freedom somewhere else. Even Li Zheng Rong couldn’t find him.

Shi Yan had come to the Wonderful Stone City to collect the materials for his Teleportation Formation. It was their destiny they could meet up here.

Ye Chang Feng laughed cheerily, walking towards him.

Follow him were three other people Shi Yan had known, Lin Zhi, Luo Xiao, and Luo Meng.

He had met these three in the Dark Magnetic Noxious Mist.

As for Lin Zhi with her hot body, not only had he met her in the Dark Magnetic Noxious Mist, he had slapped her several times. Seeing her now, he couldn’t help but feel embarrassed.

Lin Zhi felt a bit awkward too. She lingered in the distance, away from them. Brothers Luo Xiao and Luo Meng had to call her several times. She then reluctantly walked towards them.

"Bro, you do know how to struggle well. After you came to the Divine Great Land, I’ve heard many rumors about you," Ye Chang Feng smiled evilly. "Well, is it true that the four snow flowers of the Ice Emperor City have a relationship with you?"

Shi Yan was stunned.

This dude didn’t inquire about anything but this matter. Well, men were always men.

"No serious relationship. We are just friend. Normal friends," Shi Yan smiled begrudgingly.

Luo Xiao and Luo Meng came over with the same evil smiles on their faces. They continually gave him compliments. They seemed to have a big desire, too.

"Stop it. People rumor that you have subdued the four snow flowers of the Ice Emperor City. I have heard that even Qing Ting Dong and her sisters keep silent when they talk about the relationship with you. Your denial doesn’t work, bro," laughed Ye Chang Feng.

Lin Zhi pouted. When she joined the group, her face was filled with disdain while her eyes reflected her hatred.

Shi Yan ignored this woman. He talked with Ye Chang Feng, Luo Xiao, and Luo Meng, asking them what they had been through these years.

"We aren’t worth mentioning. Surely, our experience isn’t as interesting as yours." Ye Chang Feng put on a sobbing countenance. "The Old Demon forced me to study the spiritual formations every day. I have struggled hard to get rid of it. Then, the Old Demon asked me to tell him all the things I’ve experienced with you. Bro, you’re a disaster. Any place you go, accidents happen there. Sigh! Since you’ve visited the Dead Soul Mountain Range, no one dares to go to that place anymore. My teacher had to move out too."

The catastrophe of the Dead Soul Mountain range had spread out all over the Divine Great Land without him realizing it.

No matter it was the seven ancient factions or the disciples of the small sects, they tried to utilize their means to get the situation over there.

Before the danger of the dead souls’ evil lair was solved, no warrior, blacksmith, or alchemist dared to return to the Dead Soul Mountain range. At the moment, the holy place of the alchemists and the blacksmiths had become isolated.

Although Li Zheng Rong and Ke Da were strong, they weren’t as strong as Yun Hao and the others. Even Yun Hao and Nie Ruo couldn’t solve the dead souls’ evil lair problem. So, Li Zheng Rong and the others, of course, had no other way around.

Reluctantly, Li Zheng Rong and his people had to leave the Dead Soul Mountain range and find new places to cultivate.

According to Ye Chang Feng, Li Zheng Rong and Lin Ya Qi would come to the Wonderful Stone City and stay there for a while.

After several years, Ye Chang Feng didn’t have many changes. His realm was now the Second Sky of Nirvana Realm. Except for that, he had nothing earth-shaking. He didn’t talk much. After narrating his brief story, he shut his mouth.

However, Luo Xiao and Luo Meng had a great interest in the relationship between Shi Yan and Bing Qing Tong’s group. They kept asking questions.

Shi Yan didn’t want to talk about this. He just beamed a wry smile and kept silent. Brothers Luo Xiou couldn’t help but ask Ye Chang Feng to exploit the information from Shi Yan.

"Alright, don’t ask too many questions. It’s not as dirty as you thought." Shi Yan smiled forcefully, grunted to the three pervert men who were really persistent with the matter. "Why did you guys come to this Wonderful Stone City?"

"Of course, we should be in the Wonderful Stone City," Luo Xiao continued, "My teacher’s the City Master of the Wonderful Stone City. If I don’t stay here, where else I can go?"

"Luo Xiao, Luo Meng, and Lin Zhi da-jie are all the apprentices of Old Zhu. This Wonderful Stone City is Old Zhu’s territory," explained Ye Chang Feng.

Shi Yan was surprised.

He knew that Old Zhu was Zhu Yi, the master of Wonderful Stone City, one of the Elders of the Spirit Treasure Sect.

However, he didn’t expect that Lin Zhi, Luo Xiao, and Luo Meng were Zhu Yi’s disciples.

Zhu Yi had the Third Sky of Spirit Realm, with a good reputation in the Spirit Treasure Sect. He understood doing business well. Under his management, the Wonderful Stone City was polished and lively, which attracted so many warriors here for cultivating materials.

This person was neither an alchemist nor a blacksmith, but he had special knowledge of rare treasures. Just with a glance, he knew how much a type of material should be priced at.

In the Spirit Treasure Sect, Zhu Yi was a rare expert as he always focused on cultivating, his competence excellent.

Since the three of Lin Zhi’s group could have him as their teacher, they must have good fortune.

"Oh, that’s it." Shi Yan smiled, "I came to the Wonderful Stone City to find some materials I still lack. Thank goodness that I met you here. As you are the host, it would be convenient to help me find them."

Then, he listed more than ten kinds of material he needed.

Luo Xiao and Luo Meng listened to him attentively. After he finished, Luo Xiao answered him, "It’s not difficult to find the other materials. Even if the Wonderful Stone City doesn’t have them, we can help you search in the other cities of the Spirit Treasure Sect. However, the Ethereal Crystal is really rare and precious. We don’t have any stores that sell it in the Wonderful Stone City."

Shi Yan felt disappointed.

If the Spirit Treasure Sect didn’t have the Ethereal Crystal, he didn’t know where else to find it. Without the Ethereal Crystal, building the Teleportation Formation just wasted his effort.

"Do you know where to find the Ethereal Crystal?" Shi Yan mused and asked.

"What do you need it for? The Ethereal Crystal has only one function, which is to build a Teleportation Formation. Do you, do you know how to do that?" Ye Chang Feng was stunned.

Shi Yan just smiled, not wanting to explain. "Do you know where to find it?"

"My teacher knows, I suppose," Lin Zhi suddenly added.

Shi Yan’s eyes brightened. "Can you take me to meet your teacher?"

"This shouldn’t be a problem," Luo Xiao laughed loudly. "My teacher really likes you. When we came back from the Dark Magnetic Noxious Mist, we told him about you. It’s just been several years, and you have stirred up many things since you came to the Divine Great Land. I think my teacher has a big interest in you."

Shi Yan forced a smile, "Then please take me to meet him."

"No problem."

...

Luo Xiao and Luo Meng led the way. They walked directly to the Wonderful Stone City Palace of the City Master.

Zhu Yi was having some guests. When he heard Luo Xiao and Luo Meng’s calling, he wanted to scold them. But, after he got to know the situation, Zhu Yi’s eyes brightened.

"Little friend, you are Shi Yan?" Zhu Yi laughed.

Shi Yan nodded.

"Younger generations will surpass us in time indeed," Zhu Yi looked cheerful. He mused, then changed his complexion, looking at a withered old man next to him. "Ye-ge, take a look."

The old man frowned as he was assessing Shi Yan, his face strange.

"Shi Yan, this is my teacher’s brother, uncle Ye," Luo Xiao introduced with a smiling face. "Uncle Ye loves freedom. He likes to collect strange things."

Shi Yan was cheered up. He slightly bent his body to greet the old man. "Precursor Ye, do you have the Ethereal Crystal?"

Ye Xiong was an elder of the Spirit Treasure Sect. He liked to travel. He didn’t have a permanent address as he didn’t stay in the Spirit Treasure Sect for the whole year. He knew many special and peculiar places in the Divine Great Land.

"I have some Ethereal Crystals," Ye Xiong nodded. He pondered for a while and then said, "Anyway, I don’t lack anything. And I don’t have the intent to exchange them."

Ye Xiong also had the Third Sky of Spirit Realm cultivation base. His aura was old and thick, which proved that he was a dangerous expert.

As he said that, Shi Yan felt itchy in his heart and he couldn’t repress it. He forced a smile. "Precursor Ye, I really need the Ethereal Crystal. I can pay a high price. Is it possible?"

Ye Xiong shook his head and said deliberately, "I said I don’t lack anything, and I don’t want to sell it."

Shi Yan was filled with disappointment.

"Ye-ge, don’t you need hotshots to accompany you to that place? How about Shi Yan?" Zhu Yi smiled. "You don’t stay in the sect for the full year, so your information isn’t updated. Don’t look down on this young man. He had subdued Ning Du Quan in the Ice Emperor City. I heard that Yu Li Ming, the freak, also died in his hands. If you have him as your company, your chance to win will be better."

Ye Xiong’s eyes brightened, but it seemed he didn’t buy it. He said louder, "He killed Yu Li Ming? How could it be?"

"Shi Yan, perhaps you should prove your value a bit," Ye Chang Feng added at the right moment.

"If you have this sort of power, I can give you the Ethereal Crystal, as long as you help me with one thing," Ye Xiong said with a serious face.

Shi Yan didn’t say anything, summoning the War Devil.

As soon as the War Devil appeared, an earth-destroying aura shot out everywhere.

Lin Zhi, Ye Chang Feng, Luo Xiao, and Luo Meng were startled, forced to back off.

Light shone in Zhu Yi’s and Ye Xiong’s eyes. They were shivering in thrill.

"Okay!" Ye Xiong shouted. He took a deep breath and said, "I can give it to you."

Shi Yan retrieved the War Devil to his Blood Vein Ring.

"As long as you agree to accompany me to the Shady Firmament Old Mound to catch a Heaven Thunder beast, I’ll give you the Ethereal Crystal!" Ye Xiong said briefly.

Shi Yan was stunned.

Shady Firmament Old Mound, Ancient Corpse Tomb, and the Dead Soul Mountain range, were the three hazardous areas in the Divine Great Land.

The Shady Firmament Ancient Mound was in the Spirit Treasure Sect’s territory. It was a bizarre prohibited area. Even the experts of the Spirit Treasure Sect didn’t dare to operate near it. Rumors said that it had some extremely dangerous barriers made in the Antiquity time.

However, to Shi Yan, the Shady Firmament Old Mound was a special place.

It was the ancestor’s land of the Demonic Sound Clan. That place kept the secret treasures and old books written by the Demonic Sound Clan’s ancestors. Before he came to the Divine Great Land, he had planned to visit there.

Ye Xiong’s condition, although was beyond his anticipation, suited his plan well.

"Not a big deal," Shi Yan agreed immediately.
