Chapter 396: Collecting money

Ye Zhongming was naturally the Wanderer that the Posthumous people mentioned. He used this identity to execute his plan to enter the city.

Of course, he didn’t give up the thought of collecting the useless demon crystals.

He did gain a lot on this trip. Not only did he gain a chance to break free from the wheel, become stronger even without potions, and reach nine stars and even higher. He could complete those things that nine-star evolved in his last life couldn’t.

But before all those turned to reality, Ye Zhongming needed demon crystals. Even if he didn’t need them in the future, his men needed them. He didn’t know if others could cultivate these techniques. No matter what, these crystals would bring him several benefits.

So Ye Zhongming collected everything he could see. He could see several pieces along the way. Last night, he even picked up an orange crystal under the bones of a giant demon monster.

That was a level-eight lifeform’s crystal!

How much did he have to give up in his last life to get one of these?

But he could pick them up easily now.

Honestly, he felt complicated when he picked that level-eight crystal up.

Ah Tao had only been to the Imperial City once when he was young, so he only gave a few crucial names along the way. Ye Zhongming had to walk and find.

He thought about the identity he would use to enter the Imperial City. He relied on his Stamina Fountain and Blood Stepping Boot’s recovery to rest only for three hours. He slept for an hour and then used two hours to create weapons.

He felt like this was his ticket to get in.

When he bumped into the North Peacock Tribe, he didn’t contact them immediately and just observed them for a day. He confirmed that they came from the biggest city, Vinrose, before he acted like it was a coincidence. He then sold the grey arrow that he created to win their trust.

When Ye Zhongming took three types of weapons to show the elder and told him his ability to create new weapons, he decided to invite Ye Zhongming back to Vinrose. As for the price. Was that a problem? Although they didn’t treat the crystals seriously, if they collected them, they would have a small mountain of them!

The three weapons were grey, white, and silver!

Ye Zhongming was thus invited into one of the entrances of the Imperial City, Vinrose Mountain.

The negotiation with the level-six leader was nerve-wracking. Posthumous people were not fools; they were very practical and greedy. They could force this person to stay here, but after Ye Zhongming revealed his strength, he gave up on that thought.

He was one of the top experts in Vinrose Mountain! The strongest warriors here was between level six and seven.

As for why there weren’t level-seven ones...

Those level-seven experts could create super tribes and could enter the Imperial City. Who would stay in such a place and share resources with dozens of other tribes?

When the elder decided to work with Ye Zhongming, it caused a crystal collection wave.

Why? This thing that people abandoned could be traded for a powerful and shining weapon. This weapon could make warriors safer and stronger and hunt for better things!

In a short time, crystals became the most valuable trading tool.

After discovering that this place was just three days from the Imperial City, Ye Zhongming calmed down. He created equipment for two days. He could create two thousand pieces daily with his mental energy and numerous low-level crystals that he could use to recover. Moreover, the price had increased. He stopped providing materials. They needed to provide the blueprint and materials. As for the price... It didn’t change.

When Ye Zhongming spent seven days here, news came from the Imperial City. A king wanted to meet him.

Before leaving, Ye Zhongming was shocked when he counted the number of crystals he had.
