I Can Travel between Two Worlds-Chapter 47 - 46: Celestial Derivation Technique, Black Market in Town

Chapter 47: Chapter 46: Celestial Derivation Technique, Black Market in Town

Jing Xiao’Er, Lin Chen’s third senior brother.

Yes, the one who is always outside the sect, wandering everywhere.

Since Lin Chen became a disciple two months ago, he had never met him and only heard of him a few times from the master.

Plus, seeing the attire of an Inner Sect disciple, Lin Chen barely recognized him.

Jing Xiao’Er was stunned for a moment, looked Lin Chen over, and then uncertainly said:

"You are... Junior Brother Lin?"

Jing Xiao’Er’s face immediately lit up with joy, and he quickly said:

"Let your senior brother deal with this group of ruffians first... then we’ll catch up!"

Having said that, Jing Xiao’Er took a step forward and said:

"Gentlemen, you claim I am cheating, do you have any proof?"

"If you defame us cultivators in broad daylight... don’t blame me for being rude!"

With that said, Jing Xiao’Er let out a cold snort, and seven or eight gleaming flying swords pointed directly at those thugs.

The thugs exchanged glances but did not dare to advance.

They only suspected Jing Xiao’Er of cheating, but had no evidence.

Moreover, in this marketplace under Changchun Mountain, they indeed did not dare to act against Jing Xiao’Er.

After a moment of standoff, the leader of the thugs gave in.

"Cough, cough, Brother Jing... since you won Spirit Stones today, how about we continue playing for a while?"

"Earlier, we were a bit hasty, hope you won’t hold it against us..."

Seeing this, Jing Xiao’Er put away the flying swords and refused, saying:

"Let’s call it a day, I still have matters to attend to... will return tomorrow!"

With that, he pulled Lin Chen towards a restaurant in the marketplace.

...

Soon after, at the largest restaurant in the marketplace, Hundred Fragrance Building.

The table was set with eight meat and eight vegetarian dishes, exuding enticing aromas, each dish was Spiritual Food, quite costly.

Jing Xiao’Er indulged in the meal while asking:

"Junior Brother Lin... I only heard about you from the old man a few days ago."

"I’ve been busy making a living lately, no time to meet you, hope you won’t hold it against me!"

Saying this, he continued to devour the Spiritual Food.

Lin Chen’s mouth twitched upon hearing this, suspecting that his third senior brother’s so-called livelihood involved gambling and hanging around...

Jing Xiao’Er tore off a chicken leg for Lin Chen, grinning as he said:

"Junior Brother Lin, why aren’t you cultivating well on the mountain, what brings you to this marketplace? Could it be you’d like to try your luck at the gambling house?"

Saying this, he cautiously glanced around, then whispered:

"Junior Brother Lin, recently I have mastered a unique secret technique... guaranteeing nine wins out of ten! Want to try?"

"That gambling house’s dice cup is restricted, Qi Refining Stage divine souls can’t see through it... but I obtained a secret technique that can enhance the divine soul, hehe..."

"This way, I can see the points inside the dice cup crystal clear!"

Lin Chen heard this and a wisp of a black line appeared on his forehead.

Goodness, the people at the gambling house weren’t wrong, his senior brother really was cheating.

However, using a divine sense enhancing technique for cheating... wasn’t that a bit overkill on his brother’s part?

Lin Chen thought for a moment and said:

"I came to the marketplace to trade some cultivation supplies, not for gambling..."

Jing Xiao’Er looked visibly disappointed upon hearing this.

But Lin Chen changed his tone and said:

"However, I’m quite interested in Senior Brother’s divine sense enhancement secret technique..."

Lin Chen looked down, feeling a bit guilty.

The technique to enhance divine sense is a rare treasure in the Cultivation Realm...

Asking his third senior brother directly like this, wasn’t it a bit improper?

Unexpectedly, Jing Xiao’Er didn’t care at all, waving his hand, he said:

"What’s so hard about that? This secret technique isn’t of much use to me anyways, in a few days the gambling house might notice something... hehe, then I’ll just hide in the sect, what can they do to me?"

Saying this, Jing Xiao’Er casually tossed over a Jade Scroll.

"I heard Second Senior Brother gave you a Purple Flame Spirit Snake, and the senior sister even stole the old man’s Jade Pendant to give to you..."

Jing Xiao’Er winked and said:

"I don’t have much to offer, consider this technique my gift to you!"

"This Jade Scroll was given to me by an old Taoist I saved a few days ago... this technique is called Celestial Derivation Technique, but unfortunately, it’s only a Fragmented Decision... still, it has the effect of enhancing the divine soul!"

"Thank you, Senior Brother!"

Lin Chen accepted the Jade Scroll, noticing its antique appearance as if it came from an ancient relic, and he dared not underestimate it.

The two continued their feast, eating to the point where Lin Chen’s Qi and Blood surged, with Spiritual Energy brimming.

The Spiritual Food on this table was excellent in taste, the ingredients must have been extraordinary.

"Though Senior Brother Jing seems unreliable, his generosity is genuine..."

Lin Chen thought to himself, knowing that this meal alone could cost dozens of Spirit Stones.

After the feast, Jing Xiao’Er said:

"By the way, Junior Brother, you came to the marketplace for trading?"

"Though I’m not the best at other things, I’ve been mingling in this marketplace for over ten years... I know quite a bit about it!"

"If Junior Brother wants to know something, I’ll certainly tell you everything I know."

Lin Chen’s eyes lit up upon hearing this, as he wasn’t that familiar with the marketplace and needed information.

"In that case, please enlighten me!" Lin Chen cupped his hands in respect.

"Of course, of course!"

"The Changchun Mountain marketplace is mainly divided into two major forces..."

"One force is formed by Inner and Outer Sect Elders of Changchun Sect, occupying about half of the marketplace shops... the other force is a mixture of various loose cultivators within a thousand-mile radius..."

"If you want to sell pills, you can only go to the shops run by loose cultivators, as our Changchun Sect is not skilled in Alchemy Dao..."

"But if it’s trading formations, I recommend the Divine Weapon Pavilion and Celestial Array Tower in the marketplace, both run by elders of our sect."

"..."

Jing Xiao’Er explained a lot to Lin Chen, giving him a much clearer understanding of the marketplace’s layout.

With this, he found the right place for his trading needs.

After roughly understanding, Lin Chen asked:

"Senior Brother... what about trading some special items? Is there a place for that?"

"Special items?"

Jing Xiao’Er blinked, instantly understanding, and whispered:

"You’re talking about the black market in the marketplace, right?"

"Hehe, most cultivators have secrets, and there are unspeakable transactions... the black market is indeed there."

"Its location is inside a restaurant in the innermost part of the marketplace... if you want to trade, you need to be prepared, so your identity isn’t exposed."

Lin Chen nodded slightly upon hearing this.

For things like the Five Thunders he brought from Blue Star, it wouldn’t be ideal to sell them with his real identity.

If he could sell them in the black market while hiding his identity, that would be perfect.

...

Before long, Lin Chen bid farewell to his third senior brother.

He saw Jing Xiao’Er circle the marketplace once before heading back into the gambling house.

Lin Chen then strolled around the marketplace, first buying a few pieces of common clothing, before heading to Celestial Array Tower.

Celestial Array Tower was located in the core area of the marketplace, six floors high, quite impressive.

Lin Chen did not change his clothes and walked directly into Celestial Array Tower.

Similar to the Spirit Medicine Pavilion, Celestial Array Tower also had many shelves inside.

The difference was, the shelves were mostly filled with Array Plates, Array Flags, and various Array Materials.

After a while, a steward with a mustache noticed Lin Chen.

He came forward and warmly said:

"This Junior Brother, may I ask what brings you to Celestial Array Tower... and what do you wish to trade?"
