Chapter 268: Ancient ruins, robbery and chaos!
Red Leaf Valley Market.
Green Lake Mountain, Spiritual Talisman Shop of the Lu Family.
“Fellow Daoist Xu, I am truly ashamed. In these past few days, I, Lu, have only managed to create two Profound Frost Talismans.”
Lu Changsheng looked at Xu Renguang before him and cupped his hands slightly apologetically.
“Two!”
Hearing this, Xu Renguang’s eyes lit up, and his face showed surprise.
After all, in his opinion, Lu Changsheng being able to create Profound Frost Talismans was already a pleasant surprise.
He didn’t expect Lu Changsheng to actually create two.
This gave him a clear understanding of Lu Changsheng’s talisman-making skills and talent in the Dao of Talismans.
He took out a gift box from his storage bag and said politely, “Thank you for your trouble, Fellow Daoist Lu. My Xu family owes you a favor.”
Although Tier 2 talismans could still be bought on the market,
rare spiritual talismans like the Profound Frost Talisman, a top-grade Tier 2 talisman, were very difficult to purchase.
Since the other party was willing to help create the talisman, he naturally had to show his appreciation.
“Fellow Daoist Xu is too kind. I, Lu, actually have something I’d like to trouble you with. Does your esteemed family, which raises spirit beasts, have any aquatic demon beasts containing dragon blood?”
Lu Changsheng accepted the gift box and said with a smile.
He was willing to help the other party create talismans also because of the Xu family’s reputation in beast taming.
He was thinking of obtaining some high-quality aquatic dragon-species demon beasts through Xu Renguang to refine the Blackwater Flood Dragon Dao Soldiers.
Although he had already learned of several types of aquatic demon beasts that could be refined into Blackwater Flood Dragon Dao Soldiers during this time,
the grades of these demon beasts were somewhat lacking.
The time and resources spent on growing and nurturing Dao Soldiers refined from them would be even greater.
If he could refine Dao Soldiers from higher-grade aquatic demon beasts with more dragon blood, then the growth and nurturing would be much simpler.
Lu Changsheng even hoped that he could directly draw a flood dragon through the system’s lottery.
That way, he could refine it into a Blackwater Flood Dragon Dao Soldier and use this Dao Soldier as a general to train other Dao Soldiers.
Because of the fusion of similar species, this flood dragon Dao Soldier’s bathwater, even its urine, would be beneficial to other Dao Soldiers and aquatic demon beasts.
“Aquatic demon beasts containing dragon blood…”
Hearing this, Xu Renguang pondered slightly and said, “May I ask what Mountain Master Lu intends to use them for, and how many do you need?”
“Hehe, don’t the Crimson Blood Carp and Azure Blood Carp of my Green Lake Mountain contain some dragon blood?”
“I obtained a cultivation inheritance and want to improve the ecology through aquatic dragon-species demon beasts to promote the growth of these two types of carp, so naturally, the more demon beasts in this regard, the better, and the stronger they are, the better.”
Lu Changsheng said calmly.
“Improve the ecology…”
Hearing this, Xu Renguang nodded slightly and didn’t continue to ask. He said, “Mountain Master Lu should also know that these types of demon beasts are not easy to cultivate. My Xu family currently has Azure Horn Fish with low-grade intermediate bloodlines and Ink Jade Boa with top-grade intermediate bloodlines.”
“Both of these are aquatic demon beasts containing some dragon blood. After the Azure Horn Fish is cultivated to Tier 2, it becomes the Azure Horn Dragon Fish; after the Ink Jade Boa is cultivated to Tier 2, it becomes the Ink Jade Flood Boa.”
“If Mountain Master Lu needs them, my Xu family can sell ten of each, Azure Horn Fish and Ink Jade Boa.”
Xu Renguang said this.
In the world of cultivation, everyone is unwilling to owe favors or karma.
Therefore, he was also willing to sell a few demon beasts to Lu Changsheng to repay the favor of the talismans.
“Only low-grade and top-grade intermediate?”
Lu Changsheng was somewhat disappointed upon hearing this.
However, intermediate bloodline demon beasts were still acceptable.
He cupped his hands and said, “In that case, thank you, Fellow Daoist Xu.”
“What are the prices for these two types of demon beasts? Just sell them to me at the normal price.”
“As for their strength, the higher, the better, of course.”
Lu Changsheng said with a smile.
“The price will be calculated according to the demon beast’s strength.”
“For example, for Azure Horn Fish, the normal price for early Tier 1 is 150 spirit stones, mid Tier 1 is 420 spirit stones, and late Tier 1 is 1500 spirit stones.”
“If Mountain Master Lu needs them, how about calculating all prices at a 40% discount?”
Xu Renguang said, full of sincerity.
“In that case, thank you very much, Fellow Daoist Xu.”
Lu Changsheng cupped his hands and smiled.
He bought ten Azure Horn Fish and ten Ink Jade Boa from Xu Renguang.
Among them, there was one late Tier 1, two mid Tier 1, and seven early Tier 1.
As for Tier 2 demon beasts, the Xu family would not sell them to outsiders.
Or rather, the Yu Shui Xu family didn’t have many Tier 2 demon beasts to begin with, so how could they sell them to outsiders?
“There’s no rush for the spirit stones. After this matter is over, I, Xu, will arrange it for Mountain Master Lu when I return to the family.”
Xu Renguang said.
“Alright, in that case, I’ll have to trouble Fellow Daoist Xu.”
Lu Changsheng said with a smile.
Afterward, Xu Renguang bid farewell and left.
“Azure Horn Fish, Ink Jade Boa.”
Lu Changsheng muttered, somewhat anticipating the effects of refining these two types of demon beasts into Dao Soldiers.
Moreover, buying these demon beasts at a 40% discount meant that even if the effects were not ideal, he wouldn’t suffer a loss.
Night.
The sky was as dark as ink.
Red Leaf Valley Market was silent.
At this time, in a small courtyard, the lights were bright.
Five men and one woman looked at the night sky, chatting idly in the main hall.
“Hehe, Fifth Brother can’t wait any longer.”
At this moment, the red-robed burly man sitting in the main seat saw Fang Yu, who was absent-minded and whose eyes occasionally flashed with ferocity, and said.
Then, he turned to the others and said, “In that case, Third Brother, Fourth Brother, Xiaolan, you go with Fifth Brother.”
“Yes, Big Brother!”
The others nodded in response upon hearing this.
“Fifth Brother, I’ll take care of the Red Leaf Valley Market’s grand formation. The rest is up to you to play with.”
A middle-aged man with a jade-like face and feminine eyebrows said.
“Hehehehe, Fifth Brother, whatever you say to do tonight, Fourth Brother will do.”
A thin old man with a gloomy face said with a sinister laugh.
“Brother Yu…”
Tao Xiaolan, who was next to him, held Fang Yu’s hand and said.
“Alright, thank you, everyone.”
Fang Yu held his Dao Companion’s hand, looked at the old man and the red-robed burly man, and took a deep breath, nodding vigorously.
Then, his eyes turned dark, and his brow was full of ferocity.
The fact that he could become sworn brothers with the four of them meant that his strength was naturally not ordinary. He had once obtained a great opportunity.
“Fifth Brother is too polite. I, Third Brother, will go first. Once the grand formation is activated, you can take action.”
The middle-aged man with a jade-like face and feminine eyebrows patted Fang Yu’s shoulder and said.
Then, a folding fan appeared in his hand, flying towards the gate of Red Leaf Valley Market.
“Fourth Brother, Xiaolan, let’s start with the ‘Gathering Immortals Inn’!”
Fang Yu said coldly.
Ten years ago, he and his parents began looting the market from the Gathering Immortals Inn.
Now, he was going to face the scene from ten years ago and recreate the original situation.
However, the difference was that his parents had died in Red Leaf Valley Market back then.
And tonight, he would massacre Red Leaf Valley Market and destroy the four major families!
After speaking, Fang Yu, Tao Xiaolan, and the old man left.
“Hopefully, after avenging this kid, he’ll be willing to take out the map and token of the ancient ruins in the Myriad Beasts Mountains.”
Looking at Fang Yu and the others leaving, a bald, burly man with scars on his head said, drinking large gulps from a wine jar.
“It shouldn’t be a problem. Xiaotao said that Fang Yu is almost completely devoted.”
“As long as the great revenge is avenged, and with this brotherhood, he will naturally not forget us when he explores this ancient ruin.”
“Moreover, this ancient ruin is very dangerous for him to explore alone with his strength.”
The red-robed man also held a wine jar and drank heartily.
They travel north and south, burning, killing, and looting. Naturally, they don’t value brotherhood, but rely on interests to come together.
After all, how much is brotherhood worth?
The reason why they came all the way from the Ten Thousand Beast Mountain Range and Qingluan Immortal City to Qingyun Territory to avenge their little brother was naturally for a purpose.

The moonlight is hazy, and all sounds are silent.
“Boom!”
Suddenly, a earth-shattering loud noise rang out in the Hongye Valley market.
Under the night, the second-order formation ‘Azure Cloud Water Formation’ of the Hongye Market was filled with spiritual light, alternating between light and dark, and the clouds rolled and surged.
“Seven Fiends Wolf Smoke Gourd!”
In front of Juxian Restaurant, Fang Yu saw this scene and immediately looked fierce.
A dark green gourd appeared in his hand, with a faint light flowing on it.
“Whoosh whoosh — —”
A shocking black gas from the gourd soared into the sky like wolf smoke, forming seven black smoke pillars, as if to prop up and break through the sky.
“Kill!”
Fang Yu looked at the Juxian Inn in front of him and made a hand seal.
Suddenly, the seven wolf smoke pillars condensed into a huge, terrifying human face, devouring towards the Juxian Inn.
“Not good, enemy attack, enemy attack!”
“Quickly notify the ancestor!”
“Bold rogue cultivators, how dare you cause chaos in our Hongye Valley market!”
The patrolling cultivators in the market saw this scene and immediately shouted, sounded the alarm, and activated the market formation.
“Whoosh whoosh — —”
The faint clouds originally covering the market began to quickly gather and thicken, accompanied by the surging spiritual light, forming an azure jade bowl.
However, at this time, terrifying forces were bombarding the azure jade bowl, causing the glazed jade bowl to crack like porcelain, revealing dense, spider web-like cracks.
At the same time.
In a simple and elegant cave.
Lu Changsheng, Lu Miaoge, and Lu Miaohuan, who had just fallen asleep, woke up.
“Is someone attacking the market formation?”
A token and formation plate appeared in Lu Miaoge’s hand.
The light flickered on it, and the spiritual light surged.
She immediately dialed the formation plate to fully operate the Hongye Valley market formation.
Then, she put on the snow-white gauze skirt, socks, inner garment, and cloud-water embroidered bodice, and simply gathered her green hair and draped it over her fragrant shoulders.
Now that she is in charge of the Hongye Valley market, she naturally has to deal with such matters as soon as possible.
“Could it be the rogue cultivators who sent the clock before?”
Lu Changsheng frowned slightly and said.
He didn’t hesitate or delay, immediately got up, put on his clothes, and said to Lu Miaohuan, “Huanhuan, stay in the cave and don’t go out. Miaoge-jie and I will go take a look.”
“Okay, Lu Changsheng, sister, be careful.”
Lu Miaohuan heard this and lightly pursed her lips.
She knew that she only had the cultivation of the seventh level of Qi Refining, and she couldn’t help much by going out at this time.
Only in this kind of situation would she feel that she lacked strength.
Lu Changsheng and Lu Miaoge walked out of the cave.
“Boom boom boom — —”
They immediately saw that in the sky above the market, countless spiritual lights were bombarding the ‘Azure Cloud Water Formation’ of Hongye Valley Market.
This caused the entire formation to surge with spiritual light, flickering in the night sky, accompanied by bursts of muffled thunder, eerie and alarming.
And in the commercial street, a huge black, ferocious human face was roaring and roaring.
The scene in front of him made Lu Changsheng feel somewhat familiar.
“It seems that it’s very likely the rogue cultivators who sent the clock before!”
Lu Changsheng’s face was cold as he said this.
He didn’t say much, and he and Lu Miaoge turned into a ray of light and flew towards the direction of the wolf smoke.
Ten years ago, a rogue cultivator’s looting caused the Hongye Valley market to suffer a great loss of vitality, and it still hasn’t recovered.
Moreover, the four major families made a lot of compensation to many merchants and forces that had settled in afterwards.
Now that they see this kind of thing, they naturally have to suppress and resolve it as soon as possible.
Otherwise, if things get out of hand, this Hongye Valley market might really be abandoned and can only be used as a spiritual land to make money.
“What’s going on!?”
“Is someone attacking the market formation?”
“Damn it, I shouldn’t have been greedy for cheap and come to Hongye Valley Market!”
“It’s over, it’s over. This market is only guarded by Lu Miaoge, the ancestor of the Lu family of Qingzhu Mountain. She only recently broke through Foundation Establishment. Now that rogue cultivators are causing trouble, they must have come prepared!”
“This Hongye Valley market has only been open for more than ten years, and so many things have happened. Sure enough, small markets are unreliable!”
“I wonder if the Lord of Bihu Mountain, who suppressed the three Foundation Establishments alone, will come!”
With the movement of the formation and the commercial street, many cultivators woke up from their sleep and meditation, looking at the situation of the formation under the night sky, with panicked expressions.
After all, relatively speaking, Hongye Valley Market is just a small market, and most of the loose cultivators who come here are low-level loose cultivators.
At the same time, some cultivators saw the situation in front of them, with greed, ferocity, and hesitation in their eyes.
“咻! 咻!”
Two rays of light came to the sky above the commercial street.
Lu Changsheng and Lu Miaoge immediately saw that a thin old man, a black-robed youth, and a peach-skirted woman were destroying the market shops and slaughtering the cultivators in the inn.
“Foundation Establishment Fifth Level, Foundation Establishment Second Level, Qi Refining Ninth Level.”
Lu Changsheng’s divine sense was comparable to the peak of Foundation Establishment, and he could see the cultivation of the three people at a glance.
Seeing this cultivation strength, he frowned slightly, somewhat puzzled as to where these three people got the courage to cause trouble.
Moreover, they dared to do such a brain-damaged behavior as sending a clock.
However, looking at the flickering formation in the sky, he knew that there were still Foundation Establishments lurking in the dark.
He immediately said to Lu Miaoge, “Miaoge-jie, that black-robed youth is a Foundation Establishment Second Level cultivator, you deal with him! I’ll take care of that old man!”
“Hmm, two Foundation Establishments?”
Fang Yu and the other two were somewhat surprised to see Lu Changsheng and Lu Miaoge coming.
After all, according to the information he had obtained, only Lu Miaoge, a Foundation Establishment cultivator, was in charge of Hongye Valley Market.
However, with the support of his eldest brother and second brother, he was not afraid at all. A fierce aura surged between his eyebrows, and he made a hand seal, saying, “Seven Fiends Wolf Smoke, kill!”
“Aooo — —”
The terrifying black smoke human face in the air that was destroying houses let out a creepy sound like ghosts crying and wolves howling, killing towards Lu Changsheng and Lu Miaoge.
“Jianghe One Qi, break!”
A blue crossbow, like flowing water, appeared in Lu Miaoge’s hand. She circulated her magic power “咻咻咻” and killed towards the shocking wolf smoke in the air.
“Kill!”
Lu Changsheng also didn’t hesitate and sacrificed a low-grade spiritual sword.
The spiritual sword chirped, bursting out with a sharp sword rainbow, cutting through the air, and killing towards the thin old man.
