Chapter 858: Treasure Palace Hall

Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

There were materials from at least three fifth-rank demonic beasts on Su Wan’er and Wang Qian’s stall. In addition, the two of them were only at the Regulated Breathing Realm, so naturally, they would draw the thieving eyes of others.

Of course, these fifth-rank demonic beasts had clearly not been hunted down by the two of them. Only the sect grand elders of the Five Tigers Sect working together would have the ability to kill such demonic beasts.

Along the way, Mo Wen had seen many conflicts between buyers and sellers. The more freedom a trading platform had, the easier it was for problems to arise.

Su Wan’er and Wang Qian were quite shocked and did not dare to continue setting up the stall. They stored the items away. In Dragon City, their lives were very financially strained. They stayed in the cheapest inn with a room that was less than ten square meters. They also shared a bed with each other.

Even though the living conditions were so poor, the rent for such a place was still one Dragon Coin a day. They had no means of earning money in Dragon City. All expenses were paid for by the money earned from the demonic beasts that the sect seniors had risked their lives to hunt down in the Desolate Dragon World. Therefore, Su Wan’er and Wang Qian wanted to help the sect seniors out in some small way. They took the materials gathered from the demonic beasts to sell in the Free Trade Market, but they never imagined that such an incident would occur.

If Mo Wen had not appeared, they really would not have known what to do.

The currency of the outside world could not be used in Dragon City. The price of Dragon City’s Dragon Coins were also exceptionally high. After the Five Tigers Sect’s sect grand elders risked their lives for a whole day, they would only earn one or two hundred Dragon Coins at most. On a bad day, they would merely earn dozens of Dragon Coins.

Once their daily expenses were deducted, they weren’t left with much.

However, Dragon Coins could buy things that ordinary currency could not. For example, it could buy various miraculous panaceas and medicines, all types of divine weapons, and even the magical treasures of immortal cultivators. Various ancient martial art practitioner methods and techniques, as well as secret techniques passed down from the Huatian Palace, could be bought as long as one had enough Dragon Coins or spiritual stones.

Hence, a majority of the ancient martial art practitioners who came to Dragon City would try their hardest almost every day to earn, obtain, and accumulate more Dragon Coins to exchange for items they wanted.

The Five Tigers Sect’s sect grand elders were such people. They were just an ordinary sect in the main space. They were far inferior to these Inner world sects. In terms of their Way of Practice, every step they took was rather difficult. And like many other people, their only opportunity to advance was in Dragon City.

If they could exchange a miraculous panacea or a powerful secret martial arts manuscript in Dragon City, they might be able to advance further. Those who were stuck at the Embryonic Breathing Realm would also have the opportunity to break through to the Golden Elixir Realm.

Su Wan’er and Wang Qian understood that the reason the seniors kept hunting beasts in the Desolate Dragon World with no regard for their lives was so that they could purchase some treasures in Dragon City.

“If you two have nothing to do, then come with me to take a look around.” Mo Wen invited them to go with him when he saw that the two girls did not seem to have anything to do.

The Five Tigers Sect’s sect grand elders had all headed into the Desolate Dragon World. Su Wan’er and Wang Qian could, therefore, be leisurely. They had no other plans. For them, shopping for treasures in Dragon City was a far-off a dream. They did not have the means to do so at all, so they would not think too much about it.

Before they had come to Dragon City, the thing that they had been most looking forward to was the Martial Arts Circle Convention. It was a battle between the strongest practitioners in the world.

The Trade Zone covered a very big area. It was a district that took up almost one-fifth of the east side of the city. The largest area was undoubtedly the Business District which was full of various shops, taking up dozens of busy streets. Also, these shops were not average. They were all successful businesses from various Inner worlds and even factions from overseas. Of course, the things they sold were also extraordinary.

This was the Trade Zone’s second tier. It was considered a more high-class location.

Mo Wen strolled around these shops. They sold quite an assortment of things, and many items were very powerful. The items would definitely be considered utmost treasures by ordinary ancient martial art practitioners. Some shops with strong enough backgrounds even had panaceas and spiritual weapons on sale.

However, these items were not enough to attract Mo Wen’s attention.

“Let’s head straight for the Trading Palace Hall in the Central District,” Mo Wen said to Tang Zhizhi after they had walked along for a while. The Business District had nothing that caught his eye. At most, he was just enjoying the liveliness of the place.

“The Trading Palace Hall!”

A look of surprise flashed in Tang Zhizhi’s eyes. The Trading Palace Hall was the highest standard trading platform in the entirety of Dragon City. Not just anyone could enter the Trading Palace Hall. Before this, she had told Mo Wen about the requirement to enter the Trading Palace Hall. She never thought that Mo Wen had such a keen eye. They had just strolled around the Business District for a short while, and he had now requested to head straight to the Trading Palace Hall.

Wang Qian and Su Wan’er were also very surprised. They knew some things about the Dragon City Trade Zone. They would not dare to simply stroll around the Business District, let alone the Trading Palace Hall.

The Trading Palace Hall was situated in the center of Dragon City’s East City District and covered a large area. It was a huge complex. Almost every person that was there had a rather high status and identity in Dragon City. action

The Trading Palace Hall was a high-class trading venue. Ordinary people were usually forbidden from entering. The Huatian Palace would investigate the purchasing power of those who wanted to enter the Trading Palace Hall. Only those who met the requirements could enter.

Tang Zhizhi had previously informed Mo Wen about the requirements of entering the Trading Palace Hall. Mo Wen was very interested in places with thresholds like this.

The Trading Palace Hall had a majestic entrance. It was magnificent. At the entrance, were two rows of tall and slender women wearing sexy cheongsams. Each row had eight people and they all looked beautiful.

At the very front, there was a team of guards. Only the people who passed the inspection could enter.

“Only those with wealth greater than three thousand spiritual stones or those with valuable treasures equivalent to that amount on them can enter the Trading Palace Hall,” Tang Zhizhi said to Mo Wen.

“Also, if you want to bring these two young maidens along with you, your wealth must be greater than nine thousand spiritual stones. Or, you must have valuable treasures equivalent to that amount on you. Otherwise, you cannot bring them in.”

As a Dragon City guide, Tang Zhizhi did not need proof of her wealth. With her guide insignia, she could enter the Trading Palace Hall. However, both Su Wan’er and Wang Qian could not be admitted. Nine thousand spiritual stones was an absolutely astonishing sum.

Upon hearing this, Su Wan’er and Wang Qian felt nervous. Nine thousand spiritual stones! That was a sum of wealth that they did not even dare imagine.

“Should we head back now?” Wang Qian asked softly. Su Wan’er nodded beside her. They were afraid that Mo Wen did not have that much money on him, and when the time came, it would be awkward.

“No worries. Since we are here, why don’t we go in and take a look?” Mo Wen said with a smile. He walked up and took an item out of his sleeve. It was a small purple bell. There were mysterious patterns carved on it. Once it appeared, it emanated formless waves.

An elder sat at the entrance snoring away. When Mo Wen took out the Cries of Hades Bell, the elder immediately opened his eyes and stared at the Cries of Hades Bell. He had a slight look of surprise in his eyes.

“You may enter,” he said before immediately closing his eyes back again.

Upon hearing this, the guards immediately gestured toward them in welcome.

A look of astonishment flashed in Tang Zhizhi’s eyes. What exactly was that small purple bell in Mo Wen’s hand? She knew the elder. He was a high-ranking Huatian Palace appraiser. There were very few items in this world that they could not recognize.

The elder had only glanced at the small purple bell once, and he had allowed them all to enter. He did not even ask them anything. The value of the small bell must be astonishing.

Based on what she knew, only top-grade spiritual weapons had such value. Could that small bell be a top-grade spiritual weapon?

Their group entered the Trading Palace Hall. It was not Tang Zhizhi’s first time here, so she appeared very calm. Mo Wen had also been to many grand occasions, so his expression was also neutral. Su Wan’er and Wang Qian, on the other hand, looked around curiously. They kept glancing here and there like excited children.

The interior of the Trading Palace Hall was rather extravagant and magnificent. It was most likely grander than even the ancient palaces of the past.

According to Tang Zhizhi, most of the items traded in the Trading Palace Hall were rare. Many items were sold at expressly marked-up prices and no haggling was allowed. There were even some items that could only be exchanged for another item. Even spiritual stones and Dragon Coins could not be used to purchase them.

Transparent glass cabinets were placed around the corridors and the inner halls with items displayed inside. The price of the item and information related to it was displayed on top. These items in the cabinets were usually items that their owners had commissioned the Huatian Palace to sell, so they had predetermined the trading conditions.

Mo Wen glanced around and discovered that, as expected, the items on display in the cabinets were all treasures. Among them were many panacea and spiritual weapons. There were also some even rarer items. Mo Wen discovered some special items that only the Immortal Cultivation world had, such as a flying boat, a water-repelling magical instrument, and high-ranking talismans.

There were quite a lot of things. It really broadened Mo Wen’s horizons. The items here were indeed rare and precious treasures.

“This is just one of the outer halls of the Trading Palace Hall. The further we go in, the higher the value of the items. The inner hall at the very center is filled with priceless treasures. It can be said that the Trading Palace Hall is like an exhibition of the world’s greatest treasures,” Tang Zhizhi said somewhat proudly. Only the Huatian Palace had such an event in the entire world.

Mo Wen nodded his head and asked curiously, “Do people buy things here?”

Although all the items in the Trading Palace Hall were treasures, their prices were also astonishing. Even he had been shocked by the prices. The price that the Huatian Palace sold an item for was at least five times higher than the cost of it in the Immortal Cultivation world.

Mo Wen had obtained fifteen thousand spiritual stones from the Luofeng Sect’s treasures. He believed that he was rather wealthy. However, once he arrived at the Trading Palace Hall, he realized that he was still a beggar. Even he could not afford most of the items here.

However, an item is valued in proportion to its rarity. The people of the Source World most likely could only go through the Huatian Palace if they wanted to buy such items. A price that was five times that of the Immortal Cultivation world was rather reasonable.

“Of course people buy things here. The world is so vast. There are many rich people around, especially in those ancient sects of the Inner worlds with their thousand-year inheritances. Normally, they don’t show themselves, but once they do, they are absolutely astonishing. The wealth of the Inner worlds was initially already bountiful. The ancient martial arts sects in the Inner worlds have been advancing for so many years. Their financial power is not to be underestimated. Before this, I have seen a sect spend tens of thousands of spiritual stones to purchase one profound level weapon,” Tang Zhizhi said. Since the Trading Palace Hall existed, it naturally had customers.
