Becoming an immortal against the will of heaven

#362 - Chapter 362 Buying Monster Cores

"Brother Yang, you're really putting me in a difficult position!"

After calming down, Shi Changgeng's face became extremely bitter, and he said helplessly, "The number of four thousand demon cores is simply too huge, I really can't come up with that many."

"Uh, you don't have them?"

"Of course not!" Shi Changgeng said dejectedly, "The main purpose of these demon cores is for alchemy, and refining a furnace of pills only requires one or two demon cores at most. No one buys four or five thousand demon cores at once like you do!"

Shi Changgeng was indeed depressed. He had been a merchant for so long, and it was the first time he had heard of someone wanting to buy such a huge number of four thousand demon cores!

However, after the shock, Shi Changgeng became a little suspicious. He stared at Chen Tian for a moment, then his eyes darted around, and he asked, "Brother Yang, may I ask, what are you planning to do with so many demon cores?"

Shi Changgeng couldn't figure out why Chen Tian would need so many demon cores.

Being asked this, Chen Tian's expression became a little unnatural, but quickly, Chen Tian pretended to be gloomy and said, "Brother Shi, you are a merchant! Merchants only need to sell things, they don't need to ask customers questions, do they?"

Shi Changgeng was a smart man. Hearing Chen Tian's cold words, he knew that this was a reminder not to make trouble for himself. His heart trembled, so he wisely shut his mouth and said nothing more.

Seeing that Shi Changgeng didn't continue to ask, Chen Tian secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

However, Chen Tian was still a little depressed. He had originally thought that he could buy four or five thousand demon cores, so that he wouldn't have to hunt demon beasts one by one anymore.

But who knew that this guy didn't have so many demon cores on hand, so Chen Tian's beautiful wish was instantly shattered.

Thinking of this, Chen Tian couldn't help but sigh and shake his head helplessly.

"Oh, right! I know a place where you might be able to buy the demon cores you need, Brother Yang!"

Just at this moment, Shi Changgeng seemed to have thought of something, and he exclaimed in surprise.

Chen Tian had originally given up, but after hearing these words, a glimmer of hope burst out in his eyes, and he eagerly asked, "Brother Shi, tell me quickly, what place is it?"

After pondering for a while, Chen Tian said, "Brother Shi, is there something difficult about it?"

Hearing Chen Tian ask this, Shi Changgeng sighed and said, "Brother Yang, I am sure that you can buy the demon cores you need one hundred percent in that place, but I don't recommend you go."

"Why is that?"

Chen Tian was a little confused. Since he could buy demon cores in that place, why didn't Shi Changgeng let him go?

Looking at Chen Tian's puzzled appearance, Shi Changgeng seemed to have made up his mind. He looked around to make sure that no one else was present, and then leaned close to Chen Tian's ear and whispered, "Brother Yang, let me tell you this, the place I'm talking about is a shady underground black market. The things sold inside are all dirty goods of dubious origin, and it's a mixed bag of people, with all kinds of people. There are even some ruthless people wandering around nearby, specializing in robbing and killing cultivators who look like they have valuable treasures on them!"

"There's such a thing!" Chen Tian was shocked. He seemed to understand why Shi Changgeng didn't want him to go.

First of all, that place was a black market. According to Shi Changgeng, the things sold there were all dirty goods of dubious origin.

Chen Tian had also heard about the black market. Some cultivators with evil intentions would take things that they thought were difficult to sell after killing and robbing people of their wealth to certain powerful shops to sell them, and then the shops would buy them and resell them to others at a discount.

This created a dark industrial chain.

And people call this industrial chain the black market.

Of course, this kind of black market is not open to the public, and people enter through introductions from acquaintances.

At the same time, such a black market is extremely unsafe, because some vicious cultivators hang around in it all day long, looking for people who seem to have valuable treasures, and then secretly kill them.

So it often happens that someone just bought something from the black market, but in the blink of an eye, they are killed by others, who resell their things back to the black market, such a bizarre scene!

The black market can be said to be a very dangerous and opportunistic place.

You can buy many good treasures here at a low price, but at the same time, you also have to bear the risk of being killed and robbed of your wealth.

The world is bustling, all for profit.

Although they know the dangers in the black market, in the face of huge benefits, many people still rush to it one after another.

Of course, not everyone will be targeted, so for some people, the black market is not so scary.

Shi Changgeng is a businessman who doesn't like risks. He usually only deceives and swindles, and really doesn't want to take risks, so he has always kept a respectful distance from the black market.

After sighing, Shi Changgeng said quietly, "Brother Yang, you were able to escape from the hands of the Second and Third Masters of the Pan family, you must have some skills, but even so, I still want to advise you, the dangers in that black market are beyond the imagination of ordinary people, you must think twice before you act!"

It can be seen that this Shi Changgeng's nature is not bad, and he will even think about Chen Tian.

After hearing his words, Chen Tian instantly fell into deep thought.

To be honest, Chen Tian spent four years to collect only half of the required amount of demon energy, and as for the remaining half, it is not known when he will be able to collect it.

But if he could buy four or five thousand demon cores at once, then Chen Tian would not have to work so hard, and he could immediately find a place to retreat and try to break through the Gathering Spirit stage.

This is a considerable temptation for Chen Tian.

After thinking about it, Chen Tian seemed to have finally made a decision. He revealed his suggestion and said in a deep voice, "Brother Shi, please take me to the place you mentioned."

"You… Alas…"

Hearing Chen Tian's reply, Shi Changgeng originally wanted to say something more, but in the end he just sighed.

After a long while, Shi Changgeng smiled bitterly and said, "Brother Yang, actually, I had already guessed that you would say that. Although we haven't known each other for a long time, I always feel that you are different from others. It seems that you have countless secrets on your body, and these secrets are urging you to speed up your pace!"

"Huh?"

Hearing Shi Changgeng's words, Chen Tian was a little surprised. He didn't expect this person's intuition to be so sharp.

However, Shi Changgeng didn't say anything more, but smiled and said, "Okay, since you insist on going, Brother Yang, then I will take you there."

Saying that, Shi Changgeng's figure turned into a blue streamer and shot towards the south.

At this time, Chen Tian was not in a hurry to leave, but looked at him thoughtfully in place, then his eyes narrowed, and he also turned into a golden streamer and flew south after him!
