Chapter 374
This world was full of wonders, and he suddenly felt that he had too few.
“This transmission box is a set of over three thousand slots. Rumor has it that it used to have ten thousand.”
“The cultivators rent the transmission boxes here and put the treasures inside. The treasures will be displayed on the screen, and the cultivators of the Sky Alliance will appraise the images of the treasures according to the information provided by the owners. The cultivators who want to buy the treasures can contact the owner through the transmission boxes.”
“If the two parties reach an agreement, they will put the treasures to be exchanged into the transmission boxes. The exchange will be done at the same time.”
“This method of exchange is very secretive. No one knows who the owners of the treasures are, and the cultivators don’t have to worry about being stalked after they take out the treasures.”
Xiao Jinting was intrigued. He looked at the screen and found that some of the treasures had suddenly disappeared.
“Some cultivators have got what they wanted and they don’t intend to exchange them, so the treasures disappear.” Chen Lifeng noticed Xiao Jinting was surprised and added.
“This thing is really useful!” Xiao Jinting couldn’t help but say.
“Yes, but there is some drawback,” said Flying Hawk.
Xiao Jinting asked curiously, “What is it?”
“Forgeries.”
Xiao Jinting looked at Immortal Flying Hawk, confused, “Forgeries?”
Immortal Flying Hawk nodded and said, “Yeah, the cultivators could only guess the effect of the treasures in the boxes from the look. Therefore, things are uncertain.”
“There used to be cultivators who traded useless pills with a large amount of spiritual stones.”
“There were cultivators who exchanged broken magic weapons for precious weapon refining materials.”
“There were also cultivators who exchange the useless spiritual herbs for precious pills. Things like this always happen.”
“The people who take away the transmission box are usually big shots, so it is not easy to investigate on that. Therefore, the cultivators who got the fake treasures could do nothing about it. As a result, precious treasures are not traded in this way.”
Xiao Jinting nodded in understanding.
In Xiao Jinting’s opinion, this transmission box was a bit similar to e-bay in his previous life. Everyone sold things in the transmission boxes, and there were no after-sale service. The Sky Alliance would not be involved, and the cultivators who got the fake treasures had to accept their ill luck.
“Mr. Chen, can I rent one box?” Xiao Jinting asked Chen Lifeng.
Chen Lifeng nodded and said, “Yes, but you need to pay a deposit of one thousand top-grade spiritual stones. When you return the transmission box, you will have nine hundred back.”
Xiao Jinting waved his hand and took out a bag of spiritual stones. He rented a transmission box.
Immortal Flying Hawk looked at Xiao Jinting and smiled, “Mr. Xiao, you are rich.”
Xiao Jinting smiled dryly and said, “Senior, you’re joking. This is all I have.”
“Come on, let’s go find a place to rest first,” Chen Lifeng glanced at Xiao Jinting and said.
Xiao Jinting followed Chen Lifeng to a tower.
“This tower belongs to the Heavenly God Sect and it accommodates cultivators from Cloud Continent,” Chen Lifeng said to Xiao Jinting.
Xiao Jinting nodded his understanding.
“Mr. Chen, Mr. Flying Hawk, long time no see!” When Xiao Jinting entered the tower, Mu Yun came out.
Xiao Jinting looked at Qiu Yun, who was behind Mu Yun, with a strange expression.
“Mr. Mu, long time no see.” Immortal Flying Hawk looked at Mu Yun and Qiu Yun with a strange expression.
They exchanged pleasantries for a while and then got back to their own business.
Xiao Jinting settled down with Chen Lifeng. Just as he was about to rest, Qiu Yun came over.
“Mr. Qiu, what a coincidence. I didn’t expect to see you here,” Xiao Jinting said with a smile.
Gu Yun glanced at Xiao Jinting and said, “Well, Sky City is not big. By the way, I heard that you met Sacred Sect on the way. Is that true?”
Xiao Jinting nodded and said, “Of course it’s true. Who would joke about such a thing?”
“Things might get complicated,” said Chui Yun with a serious expression.
Xiao Jinting asked in confusion, “What’s wrong?”
Chui Yun said with a serious expression, “Miasm is spreading in two small towns within the territory of Green Cloud Immortal Sect, and the residents have all turned into zombies. It looks like the job of Sacred Sect. I hope things are not going that bad.”
Xiao Jinting was dumbfounded. When Sacred Sect was rampant in the past, half of the continent had become its territory, where countless people had lost their lives.
“I heard that you warded off more than a dozen zombies for Kong Fei and Kong Que on the way. You are awesome.”
Xiao Jinting smiled and said, “Although those zombies were Golden Cores, they were slower. Otherwise, I wouldn’t have escaped so easily.”
“I heard that those zombies were cut into pieces,” said Qiu Yun.
“Yeah. It seems to be done by some cultivator who passed by. I wonder who that is. He went away without leaving his name, “Xiao Jinting said.
Gu Yun narrowed his eyes and said, “Really? You were lucky! A Nascent Soul passed by and came to your rescue.”
Xiao Jinting was lost for words.
He smiled dryly, “Yeah, I was lucky.”
