I am a living immortal.

Chapter 289: Ghost Market

"found it."

"The location of the Ghost Market in Youxu isn't fixed, but when the world changed drastically, I heard it last appeared in a tributary of the West Sea. I think it's probably still here after being affected."

"Is this the reason you came here?"

"Not really. I just happened to hear something while chatting with those humans. Later, I asked some ship merchants about it, and I actually did find out some rumors."

"The Ai River is a nightmare for shipowners. It's just an ordinary river during the day, but at dusk, thick fog will form, regardless of whether it's spring, summer, autumn or winter."

"Fog rises at the hour of Xu, the market opens at the hour of Zi, and closes at the hour of Yin."

"These are the three important time points in the Ghost Market of Youxu. Dusk is the boundary between Yin and Yang, midnight is the darkest hour, and yin is just before dawn. The fog will dissipate, and those who are stranded will be trapped between Yin and Yang, and it's uncertain when they will emerge again."

"Time?" Su Mu asked.

"Yes, actually, there is a legend that this ghost market is related to a great god, but I don't know if it's true or not."

"Legend? Great God? You yourself are a legend. It's really unexpected to hear this word from your mouth. Can you tell me who it is?" Su Mu frowned at first, then teased.

"I understand the principle that there are always people better than you. For example, you've made me deeply understand the meaning of this saying. The innate gods weren't born all at once; some were stronger and some were weaker. The first batch gained more complete authority. And the god I'm talking about who's related to the Ghost Market is... Zhulong."

"In the northwest, where the sky is deficient, there is no news of yin and yang, so a dragon holds the essence of fire to illuminate the gate of heaven."

Su Mu suddenly opened her eyes wide.

Seeing this, the Mirage Dragon laughed a few times: "Don't be so surprised. I also said that legends... may not be true. Even if they are true, they are just related."

"But speaking of it, the Ghost Market in Youxu is still a very interesting place. It used to be a disordered zone where humans, ghosts, gods, demons and monsters all lived together. In the gap between yin and yang, you could buy a lot of things there, like the elixir of immortality, Kunlun's Dao fetus, which is the substance closest to the Tao, and the three-life bronze scale of the Netherworld, which judges the six reincarnations..."

"The Ghost Market in Youxu was so much fun back then. I wonder what it's like now."

"Do you want to go and take a look?" asked the Mirage Dragon.

Su Mu was really interested in what Shenlong said.

After thinking for a while, Su Mu nodded and said, "Okay."

"I knew you'd be interested. When will you leave?"

"So anxious? Are you planning to trick me?" Su Mu narrowed his eyes and looked at the mirage dragon.

Mirage Dragon: “…”

"I don't have that spare time."

"Then what did you store there that made you so anxious?"

There was no other expression on Shenlong's face, but Su Mu knew she had guessed correctly and laughed, "You don't even care about the immortality elixir, but you care so much about a ghost market. Moreover, you look down on some gods (Zong Dou), but you have been hanging out with those playboys these days. What you put in the ghost market is very important... Can you tell me what it is?"

Su Mu asked curiously.

Mirage Dragon calmly drank his tea without hiding anything, then he said something shockingly: "Part of my authority."

This time it was Su Mu's turn to be speechless: "You even gave up your authority???"

This time, a trace of unnaturalness appeared on Shenlong's face. He argued cunningly, "That's not my fault... but it's not just me. Can you guess why there are immortality pills and Kunlun's Dao fetus there, and why the netherworld is the bronze scale of three lives? Guess..."

Mirage Dragon squinted his eyes and asked.

Su Mu's mind raced, and she was horrified when she thought about it. Then she thought again, isn't this just the usual rhetoric of gamblers?

"I despise you."

Mirage Dragon: “…………”

At first, he thought that the Ghost Market was the mysterious space he imagined, or that it contained some ancient secrets. It turned out to be an illegal building built by a group of gamblers.

In Su Mu's heart, the status of these innate gods plummeted. This was simply challenging his three views and making his temples pound.

The Mirage Dragon laughed awkwardly. Actually, it's not as bad as you imagined. Actually, it's not really authority, but rather my weapon...

The situation was getting worse and worse, and Su Mu was simply too embarrassed to look at it.

"Anyway, it's better to go and take a look. I wonder what it looks like now."

"I remember now. Over the years, the world has undergone drastic changes. According to what you said before, the Ghost Market in the Underworld was originally moving, but now it has stopped again. Are you sure that your authority is still there?"

"Don't worry, it's from ancient times after all, so it's not that fragile. The outer space may be completely destroyed, but the inner space is probably inaccessible to ordinary people. We might be able to find something if we go over there. Besides, it's my authority after all. I can sense a trace of its presence, so it must still be in the Ghost Market of Nether Ruins."

"Without my token, you can't take anything stored in the Ghost Market of the Nether Ruins." Mirage said, looking at the portrait beside him. A dragon claw stretched out, holding a token of unknown material. The token was pitch black, with a dragon carved from pale green jade on it, which bore a slight resemblance to Mirage Dragon.

The puppet took the token and took a look at it. If he hadn't heard someone mention it by chance, he would have forgotten that some of his authority was stored in the Ghost Market of Youxu.

Before he had the chance to redeem it, he encountered a great change in heaven and earth. Then the pantheon composed of innate gods collapsed in an instant. The innate gods either escaped into the void or hid their breath and curled up in the world, lingering on and waiting for the next revival.

At the beginning, Mirage Dragon actually wanted to go to the void. After all, he had the attribute of creation and could live well in the void.

Later, for some reason... he did not go, but stayed instead. It was that moment when he looked back at the world from outside the void.

Now think about it, if he knew that he would meet Su Mu in the future, he might as well wander in the void. A single misstep can lead to eternal regret. He must have lost his mind at that time.

Now when I see this token, I feel more emotional.

"Are you thinking of something very presumptuous?" Su Mu sneered.

"well……………"

He let out a long sigh, his expression full of melancholy.

Su Mu had a sword in his hand at some point, and his eyes were fixed on the mirage dragon.

"Wait...wait."

Mirage Dragon took the money and said with a melancholy expression, "It's just a feeling. To use your human language, seeing things reminds me of people. No matter how prosperous it was in the past, it has become desolate now."

Then his expression changed: "So let's go and take a look. Maybe you can break open the storage cabinet in the Ghost Market of Youxu. Wouldn't that make us a fortune?"
