Because of Qing Leipeng, Xu Luo and his group clashed with Xiang Zhantian again. At that time, one of his underlings said that he would make Xu Luo and his group kneel in front of Xiang Zhantian within a day.

"A whole day has passed, where are they?!"

Xiang Zhantian glared angrily at his underling. If he weren't so comfortable using him, he would have slapped him to death long ago!

The younger brother looked worried.

"Brother Tian, ​​it's not my fault. I didn't expect them to have some strength. They just arrived in Seven Kings City and went to the inner city to compete for the blessed land, and they even succeeded. Now they are all in Yellow Maple Valley and have no chance at all."

He originally thought that Xu Luo and his group were a bunch of small fry with no power or background, who could be easily manipulated.

Unexpectedly, they were quite capable. They figured out the situation in the city as soon as they arrived, and successfully moved into the blessed land before I could even take action.

Because of the rules of the blessed land, he can't even send someone to challenge Xu Luo and his group and drive them out of the blessed land.

It can be said that now, apart from the Seven Kings stepping in, no one else can do anything about Xu Luo and his group.

Xiang Zhantian's face darkened, and he was about to make trouble when his underling quickly spoke up.

"But don't worry, Brother Tian. They killed Li Han, the original master of Huangfeng Valley. Li Han's friend Tie Zhen is going to challenge him next month. Tie Zhen has already broken through to the ninth level of the Great Saint Realm. He will definitely win. When they are expelled from the blessed land, there will be many ways to control them."

There are a total of 120 blessed lands in the inner city, and the owners of each blessed land are all remarkable figures in the city.

It would be extremely difficult to eliminate them without anyone noticing.

But if they lived elsewhere, Xiang Zhantian's influence would make dealing with them much easier.

Upon hearing this, Xiang Zhantian's expression softened considerably.

Fortunately, he didn't know that Xu Luo was the one who stole the Overturning Sea Dragon back then, otherwise his hatred for them would have been at its peak, and he would definitely have resorted to any means to take action.

.....

After settling down in Huangfeng Valley, Xu Luo and the others mostly focused on cultivation, with only Xu Chen occasionally venturing out.

Every time he went out, he would do the same thing as the steady and reliable Xu Chu: he would circle around three times and change his appearance four times before he would start doing his business.

Unless he encounters a powerful opponent whose cultivation level is far superior to his, he can easily shake off his pursuers.

Tie Zhen's three Xie brothers and Xiang Zhantian's men had been keeping watch near the entrance of Huangfeng Valley, and that's how Xu Chen managed to shake them off time and time again.

Xu Chen came out mainly for two reasons: to gather information and to try his luck at finding hidden gems, as this had become a habit for him whenever he went to a new place.

After several trips out, I still managed to make some progress.

Upon returning, Xu Chen went straight to the largest courtyard in the valley, where Xu Luo and the other two usually lived and cultivated.

At this moment, Xu Luo and Xu Qiufeng were drinking tea in the pavilion. When they saw Xu Chen, Xu Luo poured him a cup as well.

Xu Chen walked over, picked up his teacup, and drank it all in one gulp. Only then did he sit down and speak slowly.

"Cang Lu, one of the seven kings who lives in the East City, has two sworn brothers, both of whom are Emperor Realm experts. One of them is named Xiang Qian, and Xiang Zhantian is Xiang Qian's grandson."

Xu Luo and Xu Qiufeng suddenly realized.

No wonder when I met him in Youzhou, he was not only accompanied by a group of Saint Realm followers, but also possessed a treasure that could set up ancient formations.

When Xu Luo and his group first arrived in Seven Kings City, they clearly wanted to buy their Azure Thunder Roc, yet they were still so arrogant and domineering.

So that's what a powerful background he has: a grandfather at the Emperor Realm, and his grandfather has two brothers who are also at the Emperor Realm.

If this were anywhere else, it would be completely untouchable.

They had already restrained themselves considerably in Seven Kings City, after all, Cang Lu was only one of the seven kings in the city, and Xiang Qian did not only have him as a grandson.

Compared to the huge trouble of Cang Lu, the hatred between Tie Zhen and the three Xie brothers seemed insignificant.

After finishing their conversation, Xu Chen suddenly took out a stone the size of a fist.

"Look, I found something interesting in the city."

Xu Qiufeng raised his hand, tapped it, and looked at it, puzzled, "At first glance, it looks like a stone, but my divine sense can't probe inside it. Is there any explanation for this?"

“This is a spirit-sealing stone,” Xu Luo said.

Xu Chen nodded.

"As expected of Brother Luo, he is as knowledgeable as ever."

Xu Qiufeng's curiosity was piqued, and he quickly asked, "Tell me quickly, what's so special about this stone?"

Xu Chen explained, "The Spirit-Sealing Stone has two functions: first, it can block divine sense from probing, and second, it can be used to seal and preserve some spiritual plants and pills."

“Spirit-sealing stones are very suitable for building prisons and cultivation rooms, but because they are relatively rare, they are more often used to preserve spiritual plants and pills.”

"Even if some specially made jade bottles and brocade boxes are used to preserve spiritual plants and pills, the medicinal power will slowly diminish over time. However, if they are sealed and preserved with spirit-sealing stones, the medicinal power of spiritual plants and pills can be preserved to the maximum extent, and can even last for thousands or even tens of thousands of years."

"Some ancient and desolate forces, when their ruins are discovered, can all find some spirit-sealing stones, and the value of the items preserved inside varies greatly."

"Therefore, the Sky Chamber of Commerce came up with a way to make money. They bought up large and small forbidden spirit stones at high prices all over the Tianyuan Realm, and then sold them at a special time."

"Simply put, it's gambling on stones."

“Every thirty years, the Sky Chamber of Commerce selects a continent to hold a jade gambling tournament. This year it is the Eastern Continent’s turn, and the venue is naturally in the Seven Kings City.”

The Azure Sky Chamber of Commerce is also one of the twenty strongest hegemonic forces in the Tianyuan Realm. They are involved in all kinds of business related to cultivators, and their branches are spread all over the continents of the Tianyuan Realm.

Xu Chen finished speaking in one breath before picking up his teacup again.

Xu Qiufeng rubbed his chin and replied, "I see. Then when this jade gambling convention starts, we can go and see for ourselves and try our luck."

Xu Luo nodded affirmatively. In his previous life, he had become a saint and traveled to various continents. It was only after arriving at some major continents that he accidentally learned about the Forbidden Spirit Stone.

The Spirit-Sealing Stone can block divine sense from probing, so no one knows what's inside.

You might spend a lot of money to buy a piece, only to find nothing inside when you cut it open, or it might just be an ordinary elixir.

You might buy a random piece and cut out a top-grade elixir, making a huge profit.

That's why it's called gambling on stones.

While others rely on luck and experience to gamble on stones, Xu Chen, who possesses the ability to observe qi, is completely different; his probability of making a fortune is extremely high.

Therefore, Xu Chen definitely had to attend this jade gambling convention.

At this moment, Xu Chen thought of Xu Ying, who had incredible luck. When they went to choose stone eggs together, Xu Ying randomly picked one and hatched a Heavenly Xuan Turtle.

Xu Chen spent a lot of time and effort selecting two, and the two hatched Azure Thunder Rocs were of vastly different values.

Therefore, if Xu Ying were also at this jade gambling event, they would definitely make a fortune.
