Chapter 1802 5 Flowers 8 Doors!
Ye Chuyun gave a wry smile.
He does have a trillion-dollar deposit, but where will he find a referrer?
He didn't know many people in Tianxu, except for Feng Qingyu, Yan Tianzi, and the Lord of the Ruins.
However, it is uncertain whether these people are regulars on the black market.
Moreover, it wouldn't be appropriate to ask rashly.
Just as Ye Chuyun was hesitating about whether to give up, a familiar voice rang out behind her.
"What, interested in the black market?"
Ye Chuyun turned around abruptly and saw Feng Qingyu standing behind him, smiling at him.
"Senior Feng!!" Ye Chuyun exclaimed in surprise, "What are you doing here?"
Feng Qingyu was dressed in a blue robe and held a folding fan in his hand, looking very elegant.
He laughed and said, "I just happened to be passing by and saw you looking around here."
"What, want to check out the black market?"
Ye Chuyun didn't hide anything: "I am indeed a little interested, but I heard that it requires a recommender and a one-trillion-dollar deposit."
"The deposit isn't a problem, but I'm having no idea who the recommender is..."
Feng Qingyu closed her folding fan and said, "As for being a recommender, I'm willing to be one."
"But are you sure you want to go in?"
"The black market is no place to be trifled with."
Ye Chuyun smiled and said, "I know the black market is dangerous, but I've also heard that you can find things there that you can't buy through legitimate channels."
"This junior would like to go in and have a look, perhaps I can find some treasures that can help with cultivation."
Feng Qingyu gave him an appreciative look: "Alright, since you want to go, I'll take you around."
He walked to the alley entrance, and the guards saw him and immediately bowed respectfully.
Seeing this, Ye Chuyun understood that Feng Qingyu must hold a very important position in the black market.
Feng Qingyu nodded and took out a black token: "This is the person I recommended. Take him in."
After the guard took the token and checked it, he respectfully returned it to Feng Qingyu, and then looked at Ye Chuyun: "This guest, according to the rules, needs to pay a deposit of one trillion, which can be fully refunded when leaving. However, if you cause trouble inside, the deposit will be confiscated and you will be blacklisted."
Ye Chuyun didn't waste any words and directly took out a crystal card: "There is one trillion here."
After the guard took the crystal card for verification, he nodded and said, "It's ready, please come in."
He stepped aside, and Ye Chuyun and Feng Qingyu walked side by side into the alley.
"Oh, right, remember to conceal your identity." Feng Qingyu waved her fan and a black robe appeared on her body, completely concealing her figure and face.
"Understood." Ye Chuyun nodded and put on a black robe to conceal her figure and face.
The alley is not long, about a hundred steps, and at the end is a black door of light.
The two walked through the portal and arrived at a huge underground plaza.
The square was filled with stalls. But unlike the neat shops outside, the stalls here were messy and disorganized, with all sorts of strange and unusual things piled up haphazardly.
The square is surrounded by dozens of separate secret rooms, each isolated by an array, making it impossible to see what's inside.
There weren't many people in the black market, only a few hundred, but each one possessed a powerful aura. The weakest among them was at the peak of the Heavenly Rank, and Spirit Rank individuals were everywhere.
Most of these people wore masks or cloaks to conceal their identities, and they communicated through telepathy during transactions, making them appear very mysterious.
Ye Chuyun watched in amazement.
Feng Qingyu explained in a low voice, "The black market in Tianxu has existed for a long time, and it is tacitly approved by the Lord of Tianxu."
"After all, some things are indeed not suitable for open trading."
He pointed to a stall and said, "The Soul-Eating Grass sold there is an evil substance that can devour souls. It is an essential ingredient for refining demonic magical artifacts and is strictly prohibited from being sold through legitimate channels."
"And over there, they're selling fragments of the secret technique for possession. Although they're incomplete, they're a last straw for some desperate people."
“Look at that secret room again.” Feng Qingyu pointed to a closed secret room at the edge of the square. “They are auctioning off a cursed item inside. That thing is extremely powerful, but the cost of using it is also extremely high, and it may even backfire on its owner.”
“A normal auction would never allow something like this to appear.”
Ye Chuyun felt a chill run down her spine.
The black market was indeed no safe place; it was a place where dangerous and forbidden items were traded.
But at the same time, he also understood a principle: existence is its own justification.
Some things may be dangerous, but they are necessities for some people.
The existence of the black market satisfies this demand.
Feng Qingyu continued, "The rules of the black market are very simple: you can't ask where the items came from, transactions are voluntary, and you bear the consequences yourself. Fighting is prohibited within the black market area; violators will be killed without exception."
"As for the black market's manager, it is the market lord himself, so the order has always been very good, and there has been almost no trouble."
Ye Chuyun nodded to indicate that she understood.
The two began to wander around the black market.
Ye Chuyun observed the items on each stall.
Indeed, as Feng Qingyu said, the things here are incredibly diverse, and many of them are things I've never heard of before.
On one of the stalls were several jet-black pills. The stall owner explained that these were "Breakthrough Pills," which could force a breakthrough from the Earth level to the Heaven level after consumption, but a Heavenly Dao assessment was still required, at the cost of sacrificing a hundred years of lifespan.
The asking price is even more outrageous, at 50 billion per coin.
Ye Chuyun clicked her tongue in amazement and turned to leave.
Another stall displayed several pieces of broken equipment and weapons. The stall owner claimed that these were ancient relics, and although they were broken, they contained ancient laws and were of great value for the study of ancient civilizations.
Ye Chuyun was a little curious and was about to ask about the price when Feng Qingyu took her away.
Feng Qingyu explained that these were all lies, and those were just scrap metal.
Ye Chuyun turned her head and used her divine sense to take a closer look. Indeed, just as Feng Qingyu had said, they were all broken copper and scrap iron.
It seems there are quite a few scammers in the black market.
There was also a stall that was selling slaves.
These slaves all possessed various special physical constitutions or were of different races with special talents.
They were chained, their eyes vacant, clearly under complete control.
Ye Chuyun frowned upon seeing this scene.
Although he was no saint, he still felt an instinctive aversion to this kind of behavior that treated people as commodities.
Feng Qingyu saw through his thoughts and said calmly, "In all the worlds, the law of the jungle is the norm. You can't change anything; you can only take care of yourself."
Ye Chuyun remained silent for a moment, then nodded.
Continuing on, they came to a relatively quiet stall.
The stall owner was a hunched old man, and there were only three items in front of him.
A rusty piece of iron, a jade slip covered in cracks, and a black crystal the size of a fist.
Ye Chuyun's gaze was drawn to the black crystal.
The crystal surface is as smooth as a mirror, with black liquid flowing inside, yet upon closer inspection, it seems as if there is nothing there at all.
Ye Chuyun looked closely and found that the light around the crystal was being swallowed up, which was very strange.
