On a wide road, a little girl ran forward excitedly. Everything she saw was new to her. She would even run in front of the pedestrians walking on the road to see what they looked like.

As soon as she ran to a passerby, a brown-skinned man in a skirt and shirt hurried forward, covered the little girl with his hands, and smiled apologetically at the passerby.

The passerby was a little unhappy at first, but when he saw that the man was actually wearing a skirt and was showing his teeth to him and smiling at him, his anus suddenly tightened, and a chill ran through his body. He hurriedly walked two steps faster.

He kept muttering, "The world is going downhill, the world is going downhill."

The man didn't care much about it. He just thought that others were looking at them, two dark-skinned outsiders, for fun.

As Tuba walked to He Ling, Tulu in his arms became obedient again.

"Sister He Ling, we've been gone for almost half a year. Are we almost there?"

He Ling was holding a biography in his hand and nodded when he heard this.

"We have already entered the territory of Xuanyuan Sect. This is why we don't fly swords. These major sects have a lot of rules. Except for their disciples, outsiders like us are not allowed to fly swords. But they don't care about fighting. It's really unbelievable."

"Ah this."

Tuba didn't know what to say, so he just nodded.

After walking two more steps, I saw a bustling market with people coming and going, and all kinds of attics and pavilions.

A magnificent sect stood at the entrance of the market town, with a few large characters written on it - Tianning Market Town.

Looking up across the market town, one can see a huge mountain deep in the clouds. That is the mountaintop of Xuanyuan Sect. It is guarded by a sect protection formation, so outsiders like them can only gather outside the formation.

Although the disciples of this large sect have all the necessary elixirs in the sect's exchange office, there are still some disciples who need a place to trade freely. In addition, after some disciples of Xuanyuan Sect formed Taoist couples, not all of their offspring had spiritual roots. So over time, they gradually gathered at the foot of the mountain of Xuanyuan Sect and established a market like this one.

Later, some people who were not very talented but refused to give up also came here slowly. After all, having the support of a big sect is better than going out on their own as a casual cultivator.

Later it developed into what it is today. Now even some unimportant spiritual medicine collection and travel tasks in Xuanyuan Sect fall into the market from time to time.

There are more than one such market towns, a total of four, and the one He Ling came to is the largest one.

There is no special post for collecting spirit stones in front of the market gate like in Yuxian Town, and judging from the layout and buildings, it is much more grand than Yuxian Town.

He Ling looked at the sky above the market town, and a hint of surprise flashed in his eyes. This market town actually had no formation to protect it.

But then I thought, if someone really could cause trouble at the gate of Xuanyuan Sect, it would be the same whether there was a formation or not.

As I stepped into the market, I saw several cultivators standing at the door. Their cultivation was very ordinary, most of them were in the early stage of Qi Refining.

When one of them saw He Ling and the others, he immediately came forward to greet them warmly.

The man who came was an ordinary-looking young man with an honest look and a hint of determination. He bowed to He Ling and said, "This senior must be new to Tianning Market."

Seeing He Ling nod, he continued, "Senior, could I show you around the market? I'll only need three low-grade spirit stones."

"Okay." After saying that, He Ling threw out three spirit stones. She just needed a local to quickly familiarize herself with the place. If nothing unexpected happened, she would probably stay here for a long time.

The young man had not expected the person before him to be so forthcoming. He happily accepted the spirit stone, his tone becoming increasingly respectful. "My name is Li Feng. Senior, please come this way."

Then the three of them followed Li Feng towards the market.

Li Feng first brought the three of them to a huge attic.

This attic is in the shape of a six-sided cylinder and has a total of ten floors. The walls of each floor are carved with dragons and phoenixes, which looks very impressive.

A flag was flying above the attic with the words "Ling Feng" written on it.

"Senior, this is the largest business in Tianning Market. It has basically everything a cultivator needs. Although the prices are a bit higher, the quality is 30% better than similar products."

Tulu was amazed and couldn't even take his eyes off it. Tuba was a little better, but there was also a hint of surprise in his eyes.

"Then here are other alchemy pavilions and Qi refining pavilions. Although they are not as famous as Lingfeng's, they are also better in terms of stable quality."

Walking along this street, you can see a huge square.

There is also a stone tablet on the edge of the square with three big characters written on it - preaching place.

Li Feng brought everyone to the square and told the story.

"Senior, this lecture hall was originally built by some seniors who practiced diligently in the past and moved some disciples of the major sects. They would come here from time to time to share their insights from their practice. Over time, this place became known as the lecture hall."

"However, now that Xuanyuan Sect has intervened, no disciples from the sect come here to preach anymore." He said this with a hint of regret.

After the introduction, Li Feng took He Ling and the others to other places.

After walking for a while, He Ling felt confused and asked.

"Li Feng, why are there so few Foundation Establishment cultivators in Tianning Market?"

According to He Ling's original imagination, the gate of this sect should be filled with golden elixirs and the foundation-building cultivators should be worse than dogs. However, when he really arrived at the place, He Ling found that the facts were completely different.

Most of the people they saw were Qi-refining cultivators. Li Feng had been taking them around for such a long time, but he only saw one Foundation Establishment cultivator.

Li Feng's face was a little embarrassed. "Senior, you should also know that all of us are unable to enter the sect because of our poor qualifications, so we have to gather here."

"I know that, but with the support of a major sect, shouldn't you be able to live much better than the independent cultivators out there?"

Li Feng sighed, "Senior, this place is actually no different from the outside world. In fact, because it's backed by a large sect, there are basically no opportunities. Due to these reasons, there are very few of us who can even cultivate to the ninth level of Qi training. And even if we do reach the ninth level of Qi training, the Foundation Establishment Pill is precious, and we have nowhere to find it."

After hearing what he said, He Ling roughly understood the reason. They had poor talents to begin with. Although it was convenient to lean against a big tree for shade, the rewards they received were basically that little. Naturally, few people could cultivate to a high level.

Seeing that the scene was somewhat silent, Li Feng immediately changed the subject, "Senior, there are a few more places. I will take you there."

"it is good."
