Chapter 1044: Chapter 1045: Ancient Serpent Seventh Floor
“What?”
Qing Die, Liu Yi, and all the martial artists present were taken aback.
Chu Fengmian and Lei Shi had exchanged blows, and with just one move, Lei Shi was knocked away?
Liu Yi was fine with it, as she was already aware of Chu Fengmian’s powerful strength.
However, Qing Die and the others, as well as the other martial artists, were so shocked their eyes almost fell out, blinking incessantly for fear they had seen wrong.
Lei Shi was a well-known figure, only one step away from stepping onto the Life and Death Platform and becoming an ancestor.
On normal days, he was the one knocking others away; when had he ever been knocked away by a single claw?
“Little bastard, I didn’t expect you’d be hiding your strength. But even if you’re hiding it, you’re still going to die today!”
Lei Shi stood up from the pillar, his eyes becoming even more vicious.
His body suddenly transford, directly turning into an enormous python, his true form, and he swept towards Chu Fengmian.
“So he only took such a minor injury?”
Chu Fengmian looked at Lei Shi, who was still able to move, surprised. It seems the demon beast’s defenses are indeed much stronger than those of martial artists.
That claw just now, if aid at a martial artist, would have left them unable to stand. For Lei Shi, it was nothing, rely leaving him angered.
However, Chu Fengmian remained expressionless, and as the snake’s tail ca whipping down, he casually grabbed it. With a loud bang, the enormous python fell into Chu Fengmian’s palm.
“Get out! If you dare appear before again, you’ll die!”
Chu Fengmian lifted Lei Shi and threw him out of the Ancient Serpent Trading Company, like a dead dog, flung out.
“Boom!”
Lei Shi hit the ground, returning to human form. Looking at Chu Fengmian, his eyes showed a trace of hatred, yet he shafully retreated.
“Now, can you take to the seventh floor?”
Chu Fengmian withdrew his spiritual power, returning to his previous appearance.
There was no trace of spiritual power fluctuation from Chu Fengmian, but this ti, everyone looked at him with respect rather than contempt.
After all, soone who could easily defeat Lei Shi must at least be at the level of an ancestor who has stepped onto the Life and Death Platform.
Feeling the admiring gazes all around, Chu Fengmian sighed inwardly.
Indeed, even outside the Nine Domains, strength remains paramount on this Demon Ancient Continent.
“Yes, senior, please follow .”
Qing Die only reacted when she heard Chu Fengmian’s words and led him to the higher floors.
“Senior, Lei Shi is the guard of Young Master Lei. After defeating him today, he won’t let it go. Once your business is done, it would be wise to lay low outside the city for a while.”
Qing Die looked at Chu Fengmian, hesitated for a mont, and advised.
“Thank you.”
Chu Fengmian glanced at Qing Die, nodded, and said nothing more.
Chu Fengmian ca to You Mountain City to buy a set of spiritual dicines needed to refine spirit pills.
As for Lei Shi’s affair, it wouldn’t interfere with Chu Fengmian’s plan.
Qing Die led Chu Fengmian and Liu Yi quickly to the seventh floor.
On their way, martial artists from other floors noticed Chu Fengmian’s realm, slightly surprised, but said nothing.
Since he was led by the Ancient Serpent Trading Company’s attendant, it proved Chu Fengmian had the right to go to the seventh floor.
After all, the qualification to enter the seventh floor requires not just strength but also wealth, which is most important to the trading company.
“Shopkeeper Wang, a senior wishes to co to the seventh floor to purchase spiritual dicines and spirit pills.”
Upon reaching the seventh floor’s entrance, Qing Die called out softly inside.
“Oh? Soone wants to co to the seventh floor, co in then.”
Before long, an elderly voice ca from within the seventh floor.
“Qing Die, you can go now; your reward will not be lacking.”
“Yes.”
Qing Die respectfully nodded and then left.
Only Chu Fengmian and Liu Yi remained as they stepped into the seventh floor.
Upon entering the seventh floor, Chu Fengmian felt the surrounding space swirling, a change Liu Yi couldn’t discern, but Chu Fengmian could see.
It was a teleportation array, seemingly transporting Chu Fengmian and Liu Yi to another location.
In the blink of an eye, Chu Fengmian found himself in a room, where an old man awaited him at the door.
“I am Wang Zhenliu, the shopkeeper of the seventh floor.”
Wang Zhenliu glanced at Chu Fengmian, a trace of surprise flickering in his eyes before they quickly returned to calm.
“Please, your esteed sirs, co in.”
Chu Fengmian and Liu Yi entered the room together, finding a chair to sit on.
Looking around, the room was full of restrictions, entirely enveloped in a separate array.
Clearly, it was an extrely concealed place where even the highest ancestors might not be able to eavesdrop on conversations.
“Is this your first ti visiting the Ancient Serpent Trading Company’s seventh floor?”
Wang Zhenliu looked at Chu Fengmian and Liu Yi, smiling as he spoke.
“In You Mountain City, we don’t seem to have individuals like yourself.”
Wang Zhenliu’s words carried a hint of probing.
This Wang Zhenliu was no weakling; on the contrary, Chu Fengmian could see that his strength had reached the sixth level of the Life and Death Platform, the peak of the Heart Refinent Realm.
Yet with his strength, he could not discern Chu Fengmian’s realm; to him, Chu Fengmian appeared as an ordinary person, devoid of any spiritual power.
Of course, Wang Zhenliu wouldn’t treat Chu Fengmian as an ordinary person; he had clearly seen Chu Fengmian’s actions against Lei Shi earlier.
This was proof enough that either Chu Fengmian’s strength surpassed his, or Chu Fengmian cultivated an extrely profound cultivation technique.
In any case, he would have to treat him cautiously.
“Does the Ancient Serpent Trading Company conduct business by asking so many questions?”
Hearing Wang Zhenliu’s probing, Chu Fengmian spoke coldly.
“If you need to ask so much, then I’ll be leaving.”
“No, no, that’s not necessary, just a curiosity of mine. Our Ancient Serpent Trading Company does business as long as you provide spirit stones, without any questions.”
Seeing Chu Fengmian sowhat angry, Wang Zhenliu quickly changed his tone.
“May I ask what spiritual dicines or spirit pills you need?”
“The items Chu seeks are recorded here.”
Chu Fengmian pointed his finger, and a surge of spiritual power transford into a jade talisman in his palm, which he handed directly to Wang Zhenliu.
Within the jade talisman were all the spiritual dicines and spirit pills Chu Fengmian needed, totaling several hundred kinds.
Chu Fengmian was unsure of the Demon Ancient Continent’s situation, so he listed all the required spiritual dicines and spirit pills in it.
