The Monster Forest is an endless mountain range. The mountains are winding like black dragons, spanning thousands of miles from east to west, north to south. The eastern mountain range is close to the three forces of Jian Zong, White Lotus Sect, and Qingzhou Prefecture.
The mountains are filled with monsters, the weak and the strong, and are full of countless crises.
But amid the crisis, there are countless opportunities.
The Black Prison Mountain Range is a mountain range in the Monster Forest. The spiritual energy in it is very abundant, and countless genius treasures grow there, making it a gathering place for countless adventurers.
Countless mercenaries, thugs, casual cultivators, and disciples from the three forces came to the Black Domain Mountains to collect genius treasures, hunt down various monsters, and obtain demon pills, furs, etc. for sale and profit.
Of course, in addition to these, it is rumored that there are some caves left by martial arts masters deep in the Monster Mountains. As long as they can be found, there is a chance to soar into the sky.
All in all, Monster Forest is a paradise for adventurers.
Ye Chen went deep into the Monster Forest from the back mountain of Jianzong, spent a day and a night, and finally arrived at the Black Prison Mountains.
Not far away, there is a mountain stronghold across the road, lying there like a behemoth, giving people a strong sense of oppression.
"The Black Prison Village has finally arrived." Ye Chen looked at the gate of the village not far away, a smile appeared on his face, and the next moment, he slowly walked towards the village.
The Black Prison Village is located in the center of the Monster Forest and has stood at the foot of the Black Domain Mountains for hundreds of years.
At first, it was just a resting place for some mercenaries and casual warriors. Later, as it slowly developed, it gradually formed a mountain stronghold, which was no less impressive than an ordinary small town.
Since this place is a stronghold composed of mercenaries, thugs, casual cultivators and other warriors, it is completely unmanaged and chaotic.
The people here are all from different religions or desperadoes, and the environment is quite mixed. Whoever has a strong fist here is the boss.
Ye Chen entered the village to take a rest, buy some food and life-saving items, and then enter the Black Domain Mountains for training.
As soon as he entered the Black Prison Village, bursts of noise suddenly came to his ears, and Ye Chen was very surprised by the lively scene.
"Everyone, a black wind demon wolf's inner elixir only costs a hundred spirit stones." A middle-aged warrior shouted hard.
"Don't miss it when you're passing by. The high-grade elixir Fiery Yang Fruit is only sold for 200 spirit stones." A relatively fat warrior was also shouting.
"Come and take a look. The cub of the monster beast Chasing the Wind Wolf will be able to travel thousands of miles when it grows up. Now it only requires a thousand spiritual stones. Come and take a look." An old man with white hair was no longer willing to be outdone. Yell.
Ye Chen looked at the treasures on the stalls while admiring the scenery in the Black Prison Village.
"This young master must have come to the Black Prison Mountains for training, right? I have a topographic map of the Black Prison Mountains here. I wonder if the young master needs it." A tall and burly middle-aged man suddenly stopped Ye Chen and said, Then he said enthusiastically.
"Oh." Hearing that the other party said it was a map, Ye Chen immediately became interested. After all, he was going to enter the Black Prison Mountains. With the map, he could have an extra layer of safety.
Seeing that Ye Chen seemed interested, the burly man took out a map from his arms and said with a smile to Ye Chen. "Sir, this map not only marks the terrain of the Black Domain Mountains, but also marks the appearance and location of various monsters in the mountains. In addition, there are also places where some elixirs grow."
"Stop talking nonsense, how many spiritual stones." Ye Chen waved his hand, interrupting the burly man's words.
The burly man's eyes suddenly flashed and he said tentatively. "Sir, what do you think of fifty spiritual stones?"
"Okay." Ye Chen nodded directly in agreement.
"This." Hearing Ye Chen's answer so simply, the burly man was obviously taken aback and looked up and down. Immediately, a touch of greed that could not be concealed appeared in his eyes.
"Hahaha, young master, I'm sorry, I just said the wrong price. If you want this map, you can get two hundred spiritual stones." The burly man laughed, his smile full of treachery.
"What did you say?" Ye Chen frowned and said slightly unhappy.
"Master, listen carefully, I want two hundred spiritual stones." The burly man smiled slightly and said calmly.
"Then I won't buy it." Ye Chen turned around and left, not wanting to talk nonsense with the burly man any more.
"I want to leave." Seeing that Ye Chen wanted to leave, the burly man stepped forward to block Ye Chen, with a hint of viciousness on his face and threatened him directly. "You have to buy it today, or you have to buy it if you don't want to buy it."
"You've got me, you're really looking for death." Hearing the burly man's words, Ye Chen's face suddenly sank. He didn't expect that he would encounter such forced buying and selling as soon as he arrived at the Black Prison Village.
At this time, some people gathered around, but they were all watching with cold eyes. After all, this kind of thing happened every day in the Black Prison Village, and it was too common.
"Haha, a piece of rubbish at the fifth level of qi nourishment actually dares to say that I'm looking for death? It's really ridiculous."
The burly man laughed, with a hint of disdain on his face, and said mockingly. "You rich young masters, each one is more stupid than the other. Do you think this is still your family? Let me tell you, this is the Black Prison Village. Whoever has a stronger fist will be the king of the country, you know."
"I also advise you to get out of here immediately, otherwise you will be responsible for the consequences." Ye Chen said with a naughty smile on his face, but with a hint of coldness in his voice.
"Hahaha, you dare to speak harshly when you are about to die." The burly man curled his lips and said in a solemn tone. "Be honest with me and take out all the valuable things you have on you, or I will kill you."
Ye Chen was speechless, his face was extremely cold. Now, seeing that he could not succeed in buying and selling by force, he actually wanted to kill people and get goods.
"Hmph, if you don't cooperate, I will cripple one of your arms first." The burly man's face showed a fierce light, his cultivation exploded, and he punched Ye Chen.
"Seeking death." Ye Chen shouted coldly and suddenly drew out his sword.
"You don't know how to live and die, you dare to resist." The burly man's face was fierce, and he increased the strength in his hands, trying to kill Ye Chen with one punch.
The people watching nearby also shook their heads and sighed, thinking that Ye Chen was finished.
They had seen a lot of children from rich families like Ye Chen. They all thought they were extraordinary and came to the Black Prison Mountains to practice, but they all ended up miserable.
Some were buried in the belly of monsters, and some were beaten to death in the wilderness.
Whoosh!
However, the next moment, something shocking happened.
Ye Chen arrived first and cut off the burly man's arm with a sword.
boom! ah!
The burly man suddenly screamed, his arms fell to the ground, a look of horror appeared on his face, his eyes stared at Ye Chen, and he said in disbelief. "How can this be."
"Weren't you very arrogant just now? You threatened to cripple my arm." Ye Chen stepped in front of the burly man, with a sneer on his lips, and then said sarcastically.
"No, Young Master...Uncle, I am blind and unable to recognize Mount Tai. Please let me go and let me go. I will give you that map for free." The burly man looked horrified and hurriedly covered his face. The broken arm said somewhat pleadingly.
"Hmph, except for that map, hand over all the valuable things you have on you to me." Ye Chen said coldly to the burly man.
Since this burly man wanted to rob him, he could, of course, respond in kind.
"It's easy to say, it's easy to say. These are originally used to honor the uncle." The burly man hurriedly took out the map, and there were about a thousand spiritual stones, all of which were taken out and presented to Ye Chen.
Ye Chen took the things and a cold look appeared on his face. In this chaotic place, whoever has the biggest fist is the king. As long as you are strong enough, you can plunder at will. No one dares to say no. .
"get out."
"Thank you for your life, sir." The burly man covered his broken arm, dodged into the crowd, and disappeared without a trace in an instant.
Seeing the burly man running away, the crowd of onlookers sighed a little, sighing secretly that the burly man was unlucky and kicked the iron plate. At the same time, they also felt a sense of fear towards Ye Chen.
Ye Chen looked at the burly man's belongings. Except for the map and the spirit stone, there was nothing else.
"This young master looks like a disciple from a big family at first glance. He is truly a talented person. I don't know what you need. I have everything here, such as monster inner elixirs, fur and bones, or elixirs and weapons, etc. You will definitely be satisfied. ." While Ye Chen was still thinking, he was suddenly interrupted by the voice of an old man setting up a stall next to him.
I saw that although the old man was already over sixty years old, his face was red and full of energy. He was looking at Ye Chen enthusiastically and introducing the items on his stall with a smile.
Hearing this, Ye Chen also felt that the hospitality was hard to resist, and immediately started scanning the stalls.
However, after looking at it for a while, Ye Cheng felt a little disappointed.
Although there were many items in the gray-clothed old man's stall, most of them were inferior items. Even the demonic beast inner elixirs were relatively low-level demonic elixirs.
Especially when Ye Chen saw a bunch of colorful feathers, he almost turned around and left.
If Ye Chen saw it correctly, it should be some chicken feathers.
But the old man in gray clothes introduced excitedly from the side. "Hahaha, Young Master, you have such a good eye. You immediately saw the most precious thing I have here. To tell you the truth, this is the ancient divine beast, the feather of the phoenix. If it is refined into a weapon, it can sweep the world. It is really a miracle. If you block God, you will kill God; if you block Buddha, you will kill Buddha."
After hearing the words of the old man in gray, a black line suddenly appeared on Ye Chen's forehead.
Blowing chicken feathers into the feathers of the mythical beast phoenix is really shameless.
"Don't you think that the young master doesn't like the phoenix feathers? It doesn't matter, I have some other things passed down from ancient mythical beasts here. Please take a look, young master." The old man in gray looked unhappy at Ye Chen's face, and took out another one from his arms. A big goose egg, bragging.
Ye Chen's face suddenly darkened, and he turned around and left.
