Chapter 411: Underground Deal

”Dao Friend Jia Qi, how did those geniuses enter the Immortal Realm?” As Mo Wuji asked this question, he also secretly raised his precaution in his heart. He definitely couldn’t let himself experience tribulation in Half Immortal Domain.
”I’m not clear about the exact details, I only know that it’s related to Half Immortal Domain. In Half Immortal Domain, there’s a Dao Lord called Guang Quan. He seems to be related to the Immortal Realm. The blackstones that we dig, and the Wood Dissolving Pills that we purchase, should be deals with the Immortal Realm,” Jia Qi replied.
Mo Wuji did not ask any further. Perhaps the blackstones were traded with the Immortal Realm, but he was definite that the Wood Dissolving Pill was definitely concocted within Half Immortal Domain. Otherwise, there wouldn’t be so many metal-type pill refiners being kidnapped from Zhen Xing.
This only added to his urgency and resolution to go back and cultivate. Even though he might not be a match for those in the Immortal Realm after advancing into the Earthly Immortal Stage, it was still better than remaining as a Worldly Immortal.
”Come, let’s go back. Bring me to the underground blackstone exchange,” With his current power, knowing too much was also useless.
”Alright,” Jia Qi knew that Mo Wuji was rather mysterious, but did not hinder her trust for Mo Wuji. There were some people, who you would come to trust after interacting with them for a short time. There were also some people, who you would never trust even after knowing them for an entire lifetime. She believed that she did not make the wrong judgement of Mo Wuji.
…
Half Immortal Domain’s underground blackstone exchange was actually an ordinary looking immortal estate. The only difference was, there was a sign hung at the entrance of the immortal estate: Forging Equipment.
As he followed Jia Qi, Mo Wuji swept his spiritual will inside. It seemed to be an ordinary looking smithy. Compared to Master Pu Zi’s stone fort, at least there was a huge smithing furnace as the center of the house. There was also a cultivator continuously modifying materials within the furnace.
There was no one guarding outside this shop, so Mo Wuji and Jia Qi was easily able to enter.
”Forging equipments or selling materials?” The cultivator at the furnace did not even lift his head, casually asking this question.
”Selling materials,” Jia Qi replied solemnly.
The cultivator did not talk any further. All of a sudden, a door opened beside him. Jia Qi gestured to Mo Wuji, and walked into the small door.
Mo Wuji knew that everyone was aware of this underground market; even the Half Immortal Domain’s people probably knew of it. He did not understand why they had to be so secretive, and why the Half Immortal Domain didn’t shut it down.
After the two entered the small door, the door instantly went shut. Even with Mo Wuji’s spiritual will, he was unable to see past the door. He finally understood, this place was protected by a peak-grade array. Just like when he was outside, he was unable to use his spiritual will to notice this small door.
The door led to a house. There were four people seated inside the house; at the center, there was a pale faced man, he looked very heroic. However, his triangle eyes spoiled his entire image, coupled with his baleful aura, he made people feel uncomfortable.
On the left of this pale faced man, there was a man and a woman. The man was extremely thin, with a heavy aura of blood. This person looked like he had walked out from a sea of corpse and blood. This thin man was currently holding a sharp knife, cutting his fingernails. The woman was delicate and pretty, she was currently looking at the thin man cut his nails. On the right, there was a middle-aged cultivator. This middle-aged man was holding an abacus, and was currently staring at Mo Wuji and Jia Qi.
Jia Qi took a few steps forward, clasping her fists as she said, ”Greetings Lord Axe, my friend wants to exchange for some Wood Dissolving Pills and spirit stone slags.”
Mo Wuji looked at the giant axe behind this pale-faced man’s back, thinking: This fella wouldn’t be specially carrying this giant axe around because of his name, right?
This man called Lord Axe seemed to recognise Jia Qi. His gaze quickly swept across Mo Wuji, before saying, ”How many will you be exchanging?”
Jia Qi didn’t say anything. Regarding this exchange, she was only responsible for bringing Mo Wuji here.
Mo Wuji clasped his fists and said, ”Because I haven’t been here for long, I don’t know how to exchange for blackstone. How are the rates like?”
A hint of ridicule emerged in the corner of Lord Axe’s eyes, he said indifferently, ”14 spirit stone slags for one blackstone.”
When Jia Qi heard the price of 14 spirit stone slag, she wanted to speak up. Lord Axe seemed to know what Jia Qi was about to say; he lifted his hand and stopped Jia Qi from speaking, and said faintly, ”You’re not exchanging blackstone, you don’t have the rights to talk.”
Jia Qi sighed in her heart, and could only swallow down her words.
Mo Wuji was instantly discontented, this fella was very arrogant ah. Anyway, blackstone wasn’t very hard for him to obtain. If this fella continued to act so arrogantly, he really wouldn’t entertain this dog sh*t Lord Axe.
”Is the price the same for one and for 100?” Even though Mo Wuji was unsatisfied, he did not reveal it in his voice.
”You’re a newbie, you have no rights to talk to me about the price,” Lord Axe’s voice seemed to contain a hint of oppressive sharpness.
