Outside the main gate, a black-robed cultivator approached Luo Chen.

“Friend, this is your Zhenlong Embroidered Ball. You can use it to freely enter and exit the Black Market Array.”

“Our Zhenlong Black Market organizes an event once a month. The specific timing will be displayed on the Embroidered Ball.”

Luo Chen is somewhat surprised as he examined his own Zhenlong Embroidered Ball.

“What if I’m not in the Great River District?”

“It will still display, but the time shown would be the opening hours of the Zhenlong Black Market in other districts.”

Upon hearing this answer, Luo Chen was even more surprised.

What does this mean?

A chain of black marketplaces?

“Does your market have branches in every district?”

The black-robed cultivator shook his head: “Some places do, some don’t.”

Despite his calm response, Luo Chen was still greatly surprised.

He has initially thought Zhenlong black market is run by a mere Foundation Establishment stage Rogue Cultivator.

Unexpectedly, it seemed to have a powerful backing!

Who is providing this power, and from what influences?

Before Luo Chen left, the black-robed cultivator’s ear twitched, and he stopped Luo Chen.

“Hmm?” Luo Chen looked displeased.

The black-robed cultivator smiled slightly, “Since it’s your first visit to the Zhenlong Black Market, I’d offer some advice before you leave.”

“Oh, then I’m all ears.”

Boom!

In the pitch-black night sky, a loud thunderclap reverberates.

Lines of fierce and dazzling lightning tore through the night sky.

In the North Street area, previously, there were a large number of vacant buildings used occasionally by rogue cultivators.

Yu Ding Sword Pavilion used to regularly inspect and charge rent from those who lived there for extended periods.

But recently, the cultivators of the Yu Ding Sword Pavilion haven’t been managing the Outer City much.

Originally, Luo Chen planned to find a building, wait until dawn, and then slip back into the city quietly.

However, now that he has received the “advice”, he needs to be more careful.

“Hey, there really are robbers!”

From the shadows, Luo Chen halted, watching the group of buildings ahead.

Calling it a group of buildings is somewhat of an uplift; it’s nothing more than a shantytown formed by scattered wooden houses.

At the moment, a battle is breaking out unexpectedly in that shantytown, which spans several miles.

No, for one side, it’s not unexpected at all.

“Three Sima cultivators, hand over your spirit stones!”

Three Sima cultivators are not one person, but three cultivators.

The female cultivator at the forefront spat out, “Tch, in your dreams. We earned these with hard work, Qiu Bai. Don’t treat the Great River District as your Liuguang District. There’s still Yu Ding Sword Cultivator’s governance here.”

“Haha, you Simas are really out of touch! Yu Ding Sword Cultivators barely care about the security of the Outer City now.”

Hovering above the shantytown, the rough-looking man laughed haughtily.

With a wave of his hand, a large banner unfurled in the wind.

“Fine then, since you remain ignorant, you can all just stay here!”

Upon seeing the banner, the beautiful female cultivator was taken aback before her complexion changed drastically.

“A top-grade magic tool, it’s the Green Musk Aggregation Jiao Flag.”

“Run!”

As they spoke, all three tried to flee.

However, with a loud laugh, a large amount of white mist filled their surroundings, blocking all their exits.

“No, he already laid out a trapping array, this was a planned ambush.”

“You found out too late, why do you think I left the black market so early?”

With a ferocious laugh, Qiu Bai’s spirit power surged, releasing nearly a third of his power.

The next moment, three giant green Jiao Dragons roared out, baring their teeth and claws..
