Chapter 1057 - 352: Nine Radiance Upper Purity Three Talents Array

In the grand hall.

The body of the male demonic cultivator emitted waves of invisible, twisted aura.

His expression grew fierce, his face extremely pale, with sweat beads as large as beans covering his forehead and flowing down his cheeks.

In a corner of the hall, another pale-faced man sat cross-legged, adjusting his breath to recover.

The man’s eyes, once dyed ink-black by demonic energy and the will of demons, had returned to normal.

Though his face was pale.

He appeared more relaxed than ever.

After expelling the demon’s will and demonic energy, the man’s mind sea seemed tattered and broken.

"What is the master’s background, to actually be able to help me expel the demon’s will from my mind sea!"

The demonic cultivator couldn’t hide his shock, muttering in disbelief.

Mastering the secret technique to clear demonic will isn’t enough; one also needs an incredibly strong perception ability.

To strip the demon’s will from the mind sea without harming the spirit and soul.

"I thought I’d be dead in three years; I never expected to meet such an extraordinary figure. Heaven hasn’t abandoned me, Lu Han!"

The demonic cultivator, Lu Han, muttered quietly.

Bang!

Not long after.

Another demonic cultivator collapsed weakly to the ground, but his face showed a relieved expression.

"It’s your turn."

Lin Zheyu looked at Kong Yu Jing and said indifferently.

"Yes, thank you, Master!"

Kong Yu Jing said excitedly.

Soon.

More than a day passed.

After Lin Zheyu expunged the demon’s will from Kong Yu Jing’s consciousness, he instructed them to continue recruiting more demonic cultivators and then left.

Watching Lin Zheyu disappear from the hall.

The two demonic cultivators who pledged allegiance couldn’t help but breathe a sigh of relief.

Facing this powerful and mysterious senior figure, they felt immense pressure.

"Mr. Kong, what is the master’s background?"

Lu Han lowered his voice and asked, as if worried that Lin Zheyu, who had already left, would hear.

"Don’t pry into the master’s secrets, just focus on doing the master’s bidding." Kong Yu Jing said coldly, with a stern face.

Lu Han: "..."

Lu Han was speechless upon hearing this.

If it were his old self, he would have long engaged in conflict.

However, after the demon’s will in his mind sea was expunged, Lu Han’s violent and brutal nature curbed significantly.

Additionally, having sworn allegiance to the same master as Kong Yu Jing, it’s even harder to engage in conflict now.

...

Splish-splash~~

On the East Sea, waves surged.

Lin Zheyu stepped across the void, with a leisurely gait, but his step seemed to shrink the void beneath his feet.

In an instant, he appeared over a hundred meters away.

After recruiting two Foundation Establishment Peak demonic cultivator servants, Lin Zheyu instructed them to recruit more demonic cultivators.

Recruiting Kong Yu Jing, Lu Han, and other demonic cultivators is just a leisurely move by Lin Zheyu; for now, a few men can’t exert much influence.

Yet in this world, there are countless demonic cultivators practicing demon skills.

In a few years.

When the recruited demonic cultivators reach hundreds or thousands, that will be the day when Lin Zheyu’s wings have grown strong.

"This is it."

Lin Zheyu looked at the island below and said to himself.

This is indeed the black market, truly chaotic.

Just those cultivators Lin Zheyu perceived hiding in the shadows numbered over thirty.

Yet they’re just weak ants, not worth fearing.

Lin Zheyu’s figure flickered and arrived at the island’s entrance.

The entire island was enveloped by a powerful Island Protection Array, with only a single entrance to enter.

Lin Zheyu handed over a low-grade spirit stone and entered the island.

The island was bustling.

This is the largest black market on Chaotic Star Sea.

Whenever it opens, regardless of whether one needs to purchase magical artifacts or spirit medicine, large numbers of cultivators will come for a stroll, hoping to find treasures.

Upon landing on the island.

Lin Zheyu also became interested.

The golden Celestial Eye in his mind sea abruptly opened, using its ability to discern essences to see if he could spot any bargains.

Unfortunately.

After wandering for over an hour, Lin Zheyu found nothing worth picking up.

These cultivators are all extremely shrewd.

Even with unknown treasures, they either keep them as personal collections or set exorbitantly high prices, refusing to suffer even a slight loss.

"Cyan Thunder Nether Bamboo!"

"Lucky, someone here is selling Cyan Thunder Nether Bamboo."

Lin Zheyu looked at the stall’s bamboo, green and pulsating with several arcs of electricity, and his eyes brightened.

Cyan Thunder Nether Bamboo is a spirit bamboo needed for refining Chaos True Skill. This spirit bamboo is extremely rare, only growing where dark energy converges.

Moreover, such a place needs to endure constant thunder strikes.

Even meeting these two conditions doesn’t guarantee the growth of Cyan Thunder Nether Bamboo, with probabilities less than one in a thousand.

Thus, this spirit bamboo is quite expensive.

"Friend, how much for this bamboo?"

Lin Zheyu walked to the stall and asked indifferently.

Under the observation of the golden Celestial Eye, the thunder nether energy contained within this Cyan Thunder Nether Bamboo is very potent, making it a prized specimen among Cyan Thunder Nether Bamboo.

The stall owner was a red-faced elder.

Upon seeing Lin Zheyu inquire, he smiled slightly.

The elder said warmly, "This is top-grade Cyan Thunder Nether Bamboo, over three hundred years old, extremely rare."

"Friend and my old acquaintance share some resemblance, indicating we are fated."

"I’ll give you a discount, three hundred low-grade spirit stones." The red-faced elder chuckled.

"Three hundred low-grade spirit stones?"

"Old codger, do you think I don’t know its worth? One hundred low-grade spirit stones." Lin Zheyu said gruffly.

This old codger, truly dared to set this price.
