“It seems that it’s time to go out and hide for a few days.”

Jiang Ming did not plan to leave Xiaoqian Mountain entirely. However, it seemed wise to hide out for a few days.

Although Duan Ping and Feng He both looked calm, Jiang Ming did not think that things would be okay for him.

!!

Although they were friends, if something really happened, it was each man for himself.

It was the safest to go into hiding in time.

This place was going to be dangerous soon.

Late at night, Jiang Ming packed everything in his house into his storage ring.

He had also harvested all the matured medicinal herbs in his garden. As for the seedlings, he would just leave them here. They were not worth much in the first place.

“And these…” Jiang Ming walked to the big tree and dug out a storage ring from the pit.

“These are what I got from all the stupid cultivators I defeated over the years. There are a lot of things here. It’s time to go to the black market and sell these things for cash.”

Although he had been to the black market many times, Jiang Ming was very patient and had never taken these things out until now.

He put away the storage ring and inspected it one last time. He only heaved a sigh of relief when he confirmed that he had not forgotten anything.

Under the night sky, Jiang Ming practiced some cultivation techniques to calm down and think about the preparations before leaving.

“With my immortality, I don’t need any defensive techniques. I have two powerful offensive techniques as well. At most, I’ll buy some talismans in case of an emergency. The most important thing now is to buy a magical tool to help me escape in a pinch.”

Jiang Ming was not afraid of getting injured. However, he was afraid of being caught. For him, running away was the first priority.

He had seen all kinds of escape techniques. However, the strongest one was only about half as strong as the Meridian Breaker. Anything stronger was for Foundation Establishment Realm cultivators and above. Thus, the only option for him was to buy a magical tool.

It would be too conspicuous to buy one in the regular market. Therefore, he would find one in the black market.

* * *

Early in the morning, spiritual mist filled the mountains. The rice fields were quiet, and even the farmers had not clocked in yet.

The black market was hidden in a valley. The path here was extremely complicated for cultivators to follow.

Obviously, those who dared come here to sell goods were not ordinary people. There were no early-stage Qi Refinement Realm cultivators at all, and half of them were late-stage Qi Refinement Realm cultivators.

In addition to the stalls selling treasures, there were several pawn shops. Obviously, they were prepared for cultivators who came here to sell things that could not be seen in public.

A thin man strolled around the black market. After two or three rounds, he stopped in front of a pawn shop.

The man was naturally Jiang Ming in disguise. His disguising technique was almost foolproof now. Not even Golden Core Realm cultivators could see through his disguise.

“I have Qi-Returning Pills and Golden Blood Pills. How much can you offer?”

Jiang Ming did not waste time and asked directly.

Before he left, Jiang Ming was ready to exchange all the remaining pills in his inventory for spirit stones, leaving only two bottles of Qi-Returning Pills for his own use.

His inextinguishable origin light was amazing. However, it only healed physical injuries. Otherwise, he had to recover on his own.

“Eight spirit stones per bottle!” The owner’s eyes also lit up. The price of medicinal pills had been soaring these days, and it was very difficult to buy them.

“That’s about 30% lower than the market price,” Jiang Ming thought to himself. However, his expression did not change. The black market had different rules.

Jiang Ming took the offer and sold as many as he could, earning almost three hundred spirit stones.

After selling the pills, Jiang Ming immediately left and strolled to a shop in another mountain valley. He took out the things that belonged to the Three Talents Guild.

After visiting more than a dozen shops, Jiang Ming gradually sold all the things he needed to get rid of. The shop owners were unwilling to give him good offers, and he barely made a profit.

However, it was fine. He needed money quickly.

At this time, there were only two or three magic weapons with the Fire Lotus Valley’s symbol left in his storage ring. However, he did not dare make any more sales. Otherwise, he might paint a target on his back.

Jiang Ming’s eyes lit up suddenly. He finally saw what he wanted.

“Friend, you have a good eye. This is a standard middle-grade magical weapon from the Li Sword Sect. It has the speed of a flying sword and only costs eight hundred spirit stones!” the shop owner enthusiastically said.

“Eight hundred? What?” Jiang Ming was shocked. An ordinary middle-grade magical weapon is only worth about five hundred spirit stones.”

The shop owner said with a smile, “Friend, since you recognized it, you should know that the Spirit Sword Shuttle’s speed is the best among all the middle-grade magical weapons. It can be used until the wielder reaches the Foundation Establishment Realm. Moreover, it’s rather common. Thus, you won’t stand out. It’s an essential tool for fleeing, killing, and stealing!”

Jiang Ming was rendered speechless. He knew that it was definitely not worth the price, however, he had no choice.

“Fine. I want it.”

“Good choice!” The shop owner revealed a smile.

“I also want a map of the Litfire Region, the more detailed the better. Do you have any in stock?”

The shop owner quickly nodded. “Yes, of course. However, the more detailed it is, the more expensive it is. The best map I have here costs a hundred spirit stones. It was just updated half a year ago, and I guarantee that you’ll be satisfied with the information!”

“I want it!”

A moment later, Jiang Ming put the Spirit Sword Shuttle and a Jade Slip in his pocket and strolled to several other shops. He bought several other things for a few hundred spirit stones. Then, he quickly left the black market.

“I’ve only made a profit of one thousand spirit stones.”

Jiang Ming felt upset. However, when he thought about how these things could make escaping from rough spots easier, his spirits lifted

Along the way, Jiang Ming kept changing his identity. He circled around the places where people came and went in Xiaoqian Mountain. After making sure that no one was following him, he was relieved.

“Everything is ready. Let’s go.”

Jiang Ming did not even return to the small green peak. He went down the mountain.

Leaving for the first time in twenty years was rather exciting.
