Chapter 218: The Mysterious Egg, Robbers! Silver Worms
Finally.
After half an hour.
It was Qin Wang's turn to present the items he wanted to trade.
"Friends, these are the treasures I want to exchange. I am only looking for some peculiar items this time!"
"Feel free to choose what interests you!"
Qin Wang displayed materials from Situ Yunfei's storage bag, as well as a piece of Xuanjing Iron. He cupped his fists towards the participating cultivators.
"Daoist Zhang, you have Xuanjing Iron?"
As soon as Qin Wang took out the Xuanjing Iron, Sima Yun immediately stood up with widened eyes, showing an incredulous expression. He did not expect that the Xuanjing Iron he had been searching for was actually in Daoist Zhang’s possession.
"Had I known this, I wouldn't have come to the trade fair!"
"Yes, Daoist Sima, do you need Xuanjing Iron?"
Qin Wang feigned surprise and transmitted to Sima Yun.
"Indeed!"
Sima Yun said excitedly. "To be honest, I am now at the Fake Dan realm and need Xuanjing Iron to forge a magical treasure. Daoist Zhang, if you are willing to exchange the Xuanjing Iron with me, tell me what you need. I’ll see if I have it."
At this moment, Sima Yun was extremely excited.
With Xuanjing Iron, he could begin forging his magical treasure!
"I am looking for some unusual items, fragments, maps, or anything peculiar. If you have anything interesting, show me. If it’s suitable, I’ll trade for it!"
Seeing Sima Yun’s eager appearance, Qin Wang’s heart moved and he said.
What he wanted was the fragments of the Mankind Shield in Sima Yun’s possession.
Noticing that he had successfully attracted Sima Yun’s interest and that no one else was interested in his items, Qin Wang immediately cupped his fists to the surrounding cultivators, packed away his things, and moved to the next trader. He approached Sima Yun.
"Daoist, please look at my items and see if you like anything."
Qin Wang and Sima Yun went to a small room adjacent to the trading area. Sima Yun waved his hand, and a pile of peculiar items appeared on the floor of the room.
"Daoist Sima, let me have a look."
Qin Wang, delighted, crouched down and began searching through the items.
Soon.
Qin Wang found a dark fragment of the Mankind Shield. He held it up and said to Sima Yun, "Daoist Sima, I am quite interested in this. How about this: I’ll add this egg to the exchange. What do you think?"
Qin Wang examined the egg in his hand, which was about the size of a basketball, oval-shaped, with lightning-shaped patterns covering its surface. It was quite heavy and appeared very solid.
"Add this egg?"
Seeing that Qin Wang was interested in the strange egg, Sima Yun showed a contemplative expression.
This egg was something he had obtained from a forbidden place. Over the years, he had tried to hatch it with no success. He had consulted many experts, and all believed it was of little use.
If he could trade it for Xuanjing Iron, it would be put to good use.
With that in mind.
Sima Yun nodded and said to Qin Wang, "Daoist Zhang, I won’t deceive you. This egg was obtained from a forbidden place. I’ve tried to hatch it for over thirty years with no results. If you want it, I’ll trade it to you!"
"Alright, then we have a deal!"
Qin Wang nodded and immediately handed the Xuanjing Iron to Sima Yun, then received the egg and stored it in his bag.
At this moment.
In a corner of the trade fair, a black-clad cultivator with a bronze mask and a robust physique observed Qin Wang’s direction, his eyes flashing with a strange light.
"That ancient parchment was traded by this person!"
"This person is interested in the parchment. He must have more than one!"
"With his mid-Foundation Establishment cultivation, it’s easy to deal with him!"
Jiang Haotian muttered to himself.
He was currently at the Fake Dan realm and had obtained two ancient parchments from killing a cultivator by accident. The parchments were of exceptional quality and seemed to be maps. He was very curious about their secrets.
Seeing another ancient parchment appear, he was tempted.
With his Fake Dan realm cultivation, dealing with a mid-Foundation Establishment cultivator would be a piece of cake.
"Dammit, he’s leaving?"
Suddenly, Jiang Haotian saw that the cultivator who had just traded for the parchment was heading outside. His eyes flashed, and he stood up.
The trade fair was already half over, and he had exchanged most of what he needed. Staying any longer would yield little benefit.
It was better to rob that cultivator and seize the parchment from him to uncover its secrets.
"Daoist Sima, thank you for the introduction. I have other matters to attend to, so I’ll take my leave now. Farewell!"
Outside the trade fair formation, Qin Wang politely cupped his fists towards Sima Yun.
"Since Daoist Zhang is in a hurry, I won’t keep you. If you have time in the future, do visit my Sima family!"
Seeing that Qin Wang was leaving, Sima Yun did not insist. He cupped his fists and watched Qin Wang’s figure depart before turning back to the trade fair to continue trading.
"First, I’ll meet with Zhang Fujiang and Yan Cangwu, then check the information. The Sima family should have news about the Clear Sky Sword!"
Qin Wang left the trade fair and hurried westward.
At that moment, a Fake Dan realm cultivator in a black robe and bronze mask also exited the trade fair cave and followed the direction Qin Wang had left.
"This person, at the Fake Dan realm, is actually following me all the way!"
"A robber?"
Qin Wang traveled eighty miles when suddenly, he frowned. His spiritual sense was much stronger than that of an average Foundation Establishment cultivator and had a wider range. He detected a figure following him from behind.
However.
Qin Wang was not anxious. He had the Mankind Left Hand, and not far ahead were Zhang Fujiang and Yan Cangwu.
Thinking of this, Qin Wang immediately quickened his pace.
Qin Wang’s spiritual sense saw that the cultivator in the bronze mask had stopped at a distance and did not pursue directly.
"First, I’ll meet Zhang Fujiang and Yan Cangwu!"
Ignoring the follower, Qin Wang headed towards the cave where Zhang Fujiang and Yan Cangwu were in closed-door cultivation.
"Master, is there a robber chasing us?"
"What is the robber’s cultivation level?"
Upon Qin Wang’s return, Zhang Fujiang and Yan Cangwu quickly greeted him with cupped fists. Hearing about the robber, their expressions changed, and they asked.
"Fake Dan realm. With our strength, it’s not difficult to eliminate him!"
"You two prepare the formation and work with me to lure him in!"
Qin Wang instructed solemnly.
"Yes, Master!"
"Understood!"
Zhang Fujiang and Yan Cangwu bowed and turned to quietly prepare the formation.
Qin Wang had a habit of digging out a cave and setting up a formation wherever he went.
This time, it came in handy.
At that moment, over twenty miles away from Qin Wang’s cave, a black-clad man with a bronze mask, seeing Qin Wang enter the forest, revealed a bloodthirsty look and murmured, "You can’t escape!"
With that, the man waved his hand and released three silver worms from a spirit beast bag.
The three worms were silver all over, about the size of a fist, and looked extremely vicious. If Qin Wang were present, he would certainly recognize these worms as very similar to the silver turtle he had killed from a mid-Foundation Establishment cultivator before.
