Chapter 242: 224: Forbidden Items of Ten Thousand Law Tower

Translator: 549690339

Due to its border with the Five Elders’ Territory, Jiushan Province is truly the front line of the war.

Throughout the centuries of war, its ownership has changed hands several times.

Instead of painstakingly building up the place, only to have others reap the benefits.

It’s better to let it stay chaotic and serve as an buffer zone for the conflict.

It’s a shared understanding between the Alliance of Thousands of Immortals and the Five Elders Organization that has created this “lawless land” that is Jiushan Province.

In front of the Tian Chang Mountain, True Monarch Qingmu revealed his identity.

It was only a moment later when everyone entering the Sky Long Mountain City finally breathed a sigh of relief, their nerves relaxing.

Fatigue took over their minds.

Everyone decided to take a good rest first in the city.

Li Fan, on the other hand, felt fine. After all, it was just an avatar, and dying wouldn’t pose too much of a loss.

Not feeling particularly tired, he casually strolled around the Sky Long Mountain City.

The Sky Long Mountain City was built along a mountain, which made its architectural layout quite different from other Heaven Cities.

From top to bottom, it was staggered into nine levels.

The Heavenly Sovereign Statue stood erect on the highest level, looking down at all beings.

The next level housed official buildings of the Alliance of Thousands of Immortals, such as the Martial Arts Battle Hall and the Tiantong Hall.

Beneath that, there was a clear demarcation line, where the City Defense Array core was located.

And the lowest layers were somewhat disorganized.

Scattered with all kinds of shops and residences.

Gazing at the Sky Long Mountain City, Li Fan suddenly felt that the top three layers of the mountain city seemed like they had flown here and settled directly on the mountain.

Compared to other architecture and landscape, they appeared out of place.

The cities within Jiushan Province, compared to other places, had one significant difference – there were no Tianxuan Mirrors.

Li Fan had known beforehand that perhaps for safety reasons, none of the cities in Jiushan Province would have a Tianxuan Mirror.

If both trading parties did not possess their own Small Tianxuan Mirror, they could only settle transactions with Spirit Stones.

His avatar came on this trip with the intention of buying Techniques.

After asking around, Li Fan quickly arrived at Wanfa Commerce on the sixth floor.

An inconspicuous small building, had it not been for the familiar Chinese character “Wan” embroidered on the flag at the entrance.

Li Fan would have almost thought that he was in the wrong place.

There was no one to greet him at the entrance. Upon entering, the lighting suddenly changed.

Only then did he realize there was another world inside the small building.

The noise of the bustling crowd came from far away. As far as the eye could see, there were bustling crowds.

It was like he had arrived at a busy market, with many cultivators setting up stalls here.

After observing for a moment, Li Fan noticed that the crowds were clearly divided into sections marked by several colorful flags.

On the flags were inscriptions like “tools”, “arrays”, “pills”, “Sigils”, “Books”, “miscellaneous” and so on.

In the middle of this bustling market stood a tall building.

On it hung a plaque with the bold character “Law”.

Li Fan passed through the crowded people and went to the Ten Thousand Law Tower.

There were cultivators coming in and out of the tall building from time to time, which seemed very busy.

Upon entering, an Energy Refining Cultivator wearing a robe greeted him warmly.

“What are you looking for, dear customer?” he asked cheerfully.

“Techniques, forbidden items, or slaves?”

“I’ll just look around first,” said Li Fan, calmly.

The man nodded with a smile, “Alright, please feel free to call us if you need anything.”

So Li Fan started strolling around this Ten Thousand Law Tower.

According to the occasional visible signs in the tower, Li Fan knew that the goods sold on the first floor were only for the Foundation Establishment Stage and below.

However, the variety of goods was quite eye-opening.

Techniques lined up like books, each showcasing detailed demonstrations of effects; standing still with vacant eyes were cultivation slaves;

Special magic tools created by master crafters; Storage Rings claimed to have been scavenged from fallen cultivator bodies and yet to be checked for hidden treasures inside;

They even had a custom service, whether it was a magic tool, a slave, or a technique you wanted.

You could have it as soon as possible with a sum of money, without having to stray around the Pavilion of Ten Thousand Treasures looking for it. The goods were for looking only and were not to be touched.

A faint light curtain separated them from the visitors.

When an item is locked in by divine sense, a text introduction will appear on the light screen.

If you want to buy the item, simply call the waiter, and you can quickly check out using the Small Tianxuan Mirror’s contribution points.

As soon as a product is purchased, the display immediately changes to another product, preventing any empty sales slots.

Li Fan walked around and was reminded of his past shopping experiences.

Compared to shopping in the Tianxuan Mirror, the consumption experience in the Ten Thousand Law Tower seems quite primitive.

But it seems to stimulate the desire to consume more effectively.

Piercing through a barrier, Li Fan arrived at the second floor of the Ten Thousand Law Tower.

Per the in-building instructions, cultivators are only allowed to enter the floor that corresponds to one realm higher than their current cultivation level.

The second floor has items related to the Golden Core Realm.

This is also the highest level that Li Fan can reach at present.

The types of goods here are the same as on the first floor, only fewer in number.

‘l’ne serving waiter was now at Foundation Estat)llsnment Stage, but still wore a smile and remained polite.

After sightseeing for a while, Li Fan paused in front of a technique named “Smoke Waves for Ten Thousand Miles”.

Once locked by divine consciousness, the introduction of the technique emerged.

“Water Attribute Golden Core Technique.”

“Upon mastering this, the practitioner’s internal spiritual energy will be inexhaustible like a vast lake; and their body movements will be indistinguishable like fading smoke.” “Selling price: 70,000 contribution points.”

“Buyout price: 140,000 contribution points.”

This “buyout price,” which had not appeared on the first floor, was curiously double the regular selling price.

Out of curiosity, Li Fan asked the waiter about it.

After a detailed explanation, Li Fan finally understood.

Typically, the so-called selling out of a technique actually just means selling the rights to use that technique.

A copy is still kept in the Ten Thousand Law Tower.

If, for whatever reason, the sold technique remains unpracticed for thirty years, the Ten Thousand Law Tower will put it back on sale.

The buyout price, however, is the total cost of acquiring the technique.

Once sold in this manner, no copy is kept in the Ten Thousand Law Tower.

The cultivator who bought it will have complete ownership of the technique.

If the buyer mistakenly loses the technique, they will not be able to reclaim it from the Ten Thousand Law Tower.

If the cultivator dies without leaving any inheritance, then the technique will be completely lost.

“Quite interesting, buying out a technique…” “The price is twice the normal selling price…”

“Whether it’s a profit or a loss, it’s really hard to say.”

Without rushing to buy, he remembered that during his tour, he hadn’t seen the “forbidden items” mentioned by the waiter when he entered.

He couldn’t help but inquire about it.

“Well, the forbidden items sold in the Ten Thousand Law Tower are not necessarily expensive.”

“They are just not suitable for public sale for various reasons.”

“If you want to browse those, you need to sign a confidentiality agreement first,” explained the waiter enthusiastically.

Li Fan had no objections and immediately signed the contract.

The waiter took out a gold talisman shaped like the character for “Law”.

A layer of golden light erupted from it, then enveloped the two of them.

In the blink of an eye, Li Fan found himself on another unknown floor.

There were even fewer goods and customers here.

Li Fan looked around with interest.

As expected, these were all forbidden items.

The first item that caught Li Fan’s eye deeply piqued his interest. “The Law Sovereign’s Seizure of the Supreme Original Scripture Diagram”..
