Gu Wanquan remained in the room, quietly waiting.
He knew that even if Jing Yan were not currently in the Abyss Market, as long as he had visited the Abyss Market, he would definitely be found out. His worry was that Jing Yan might never have co to the Abyss Market.
Because the person he had co to et was none other than the actual Controller of the Abyss Market, who was also known as Mr. Zhong in the outside world.
It might seem like the Abyss Market was the only one within the Despair Abyss and nothing much to speak of, but in front of this Controller, Gu Wanquan dared not show the slightest disrespect.
Gu Wanquan had lived for over a thousand years. On the Heavenly Origin Continent, he most certainly was considered an old fellow, with few others who had lived as long. Yet, in front of the Abyss Market Controller, he was just a junior.
The Controller of the Abyss Market was over four thousand years old.
For Human Martial Artists, the lifespan of those in the Dao Spirit Realm was generally five hundred years. In the Daoist Master Realm, it could reach one thousand years. Practitioners of the Daoist King Realm could live up to one thousand five hundred years, and for those in the Dao Emperor Realm, they could have a lifespan of two thousand years.
Even for practitioners of the Saint Realm, their lifespans were not infinite. However, the longevity of those in the Saint Realm was indeed much longer than that of an individual in the Dao Emperor Realm. It was said that Saint Realm practitioners could have lifespans of around five thousand years.
And this Controller of the Abyss Market, his Cultivation was so formidable that Gu Wanquan himself had witnessed it in his youth. He was certain that, at that ti, the Controller already possessed the Cultivation of the Saint Realm. Because in front of him, with his Dao Emperor Realm strength, he couldn’t even muster the courage to resist.
Gu Wanquan also knew that this Controller’s true age had long surpassed five thousand years. Before the great battle between the Human Gods, Mr. Zhong was already famous. And now, the Controller still looked very young. The reason for that was his Divine Race bloodline.
The Divine Race was different from the Human Clan; their lifespans far exceeded those of humans. Even for those who were not pureblooded Divine Race, their lifespans were incomparable to humans.
Gu Wanquan did not wait for too long before the figure in a black robe, Mr. Zhong, returned to the room.
"We have found the person you’re looking for."
"Four days ago, he indeed entered the Abyss Market. However, after purchasing so Cultivation Resources, he left on the sa day," Mr. Zhong said to Gu Wanquan.
Hearing Mr. Zhong’s words, Gu Wanquan’s eyes lit up.
Although Jing Yan had already left the Abyss Market, Gu Wanquan was not disappointed. What he was worried about was losing track of Jing Yan entirely. Now that they had information on Jing Yan, finding him was just a matter of ti.
For others, finding Jing Yan within the Despair Abyss Buffer Zone would indeed be nearly impossible. But for Mr. Zhong, it was not too difficult a task.
"Mr. Zhong, I request your help in locating this individual’s current whereabouts," Gu Wanquan said as he bowed slightly.
"Ha ha..."
"No problem!" Mr. Zhong laughed. "However, although we are old friends, there are rules to abide by here. You know the rules, old friend!"
"Mr. Zhong, here are one hundred thousand Top-grade Spirit Stones!" As soon as Mr. Zhong finished speaking, Gu Wanquan stepped forward and presented a Suru Ring with both hands.
This Suru Ring contained one hundred thousand Top-grade Spirit Stones.
What did one hundred thousand Top-grade Spirit Stones signify? Converted into ordinary Spirit Stones, that was well over three hundred million, sowhere between three and four hundred million.
For a Dao Emperor Realm powerhouse, this was not a small sum at all.
Keep in mind, Jing Yan had only spent a billion Spirit Stones to acquire the Jade Building from Cheng Yu, and that was also due in part to Hu Donghe’s involvent. It goes to show just how considerable a sum of three to four hundred million Spirit Stones was.
Mr. Zhong took the Suru Ring from Gu Wanquan’s hands and briefly inspected it.
He was also slightly surprised. Gu Wanquan had already told him that the person he was seeking was only in his twenties.
Why would this young Human Martial Artist in his twenties be worth such a hefty price for Gu Wanquan?
Why did Gu Wanquan absolutely need to find this young man?
Indeed, completing tasks for Mr. Zhong required a significant price, but typically, finding soone in the Despair Abyss Buffer Zone would only necessitate ten thousand Top-grade Spirit Stones to warrant his intervention.
Of course, the faster one wished to find the person, the higher the price required.
Gu Wanquan imdiately pulling out one hundred thousand Top-grade Spirit Stones clearly illustrated his intense urgency to locate the whereabouts of this young man.
Mr. Zhong glanced at Gu Wanquan.
He had his suspicions but he didn’t ask further. Having accepted the Spirit Stones from Gu Wanquan, he would get the job done, regardless of Gu Wanquan’s reasons for finding the young human.
"Old friend, within three days, I will give you the whereabouts of this person," Mr. Zhong said after taking the Top-grade Spirit Stones, speaking to Gu Wanquan.
"Thank you, Mr. Zhong," Gu Wanquan hastily offered his thanks with a bow.
"Ha ha, you’re welco! Old friend, for the next few days, stay within the Market and wait for my good news," Mr. Zhong waved his hand, signaling that Gu Wanquan could leave.
Gu Wanquan bowed again before turning to leave.
"Ancestor!"
Gu Mo and the others waiting outside hurried forward when they saw Gu Wanquan erge from inside.
"We’ll find a place to stay here for the next few days. We will know Jing Yan’s whereabouts within three days," Gu Wanquan stated.
"That person from the Abyss Market, he is willing to help us?" Gu Mo asked, startled.
Although Gu Mo was much younger than Gu Wanquan, he was aware of the general situation of the Abyss Market. He knew that the courtyard Gu Wanquan had just entered belonged to the owner of the Abyss Market.
"Yes, he agreed. As long as we have enough resources, we can find anyone who entered the Buffer Zone. That includes mbers of the Divine Race as well," Gu Wanquan nodded.
The three of them found a place to temporarily settle down.
The next day, Mr. Zhong sent soone to Gu Wanquan’s residence with a map.
Seeing the map, Gu Wanquan imdiately knew that the red dot marked on it was where Jing Yan was currently located.
Without delay, he took Gu Mo and Xian Lun with him, and left the Abyss Market, speeding towards their destination.
At this ti, Jing Yan was not traveling deliberately fast. Although there were many dangers inside the Despair Abyss, the chances of encountering Divine Beasts or mbers of the Divine Race in the Buffer Zone were relatively low. Even if he occasionally encountered so of the Divine Race or other humans, Jing Yan would actively avoid them.
During the process of evading the Gai Family’s pursuit, Jing Yan had not forgotten to continue his Cultivation of the Sky Wings. While cultivating the Sky Wings, he also set up Interdiate Arrays. In the Abyss Market, Jing Yan had replenished so of the materials for Array Formation. Over the past ten days, he had set up several Interdiate Kill Arrays and Trapping Arrays.
