Fantasy: I Have a Max-Level Immortal Emperor Account

Chapter 266 I'm on a Pirate Ship!

City of Demons.

The towering city wall is nearly thirty feet high!

On the city wall, several tall and imposing ghost soldiers patrolled, appearing somewhat lazy.

The comings and goings were filled with ghost cultivators, most of whom were at the Foundation Establishment or Core Formation stage. Most of them carried the wild animals they had hunted in the wild on their shoulders, without even a storage space.

Although they all knew that something had happened on the border between humans and demons thousands of miles away, and even news of the demon army's defeat had come.

But they lived like this for tens of thousands of years.

In their minds, humans would never dare to cross the border, and the glory of humans was long gone.

The city of Evil Ghosts is located in the desolate border region of the Ghost Clan, a remote city that even the despicable rebel army disdains to conquer.

Most of the ghost cultivators who come here are simply looking to hunt ghost beasts in exchange for soul stones.

Lin Xuan entered the City of Evil Spirits with remarkable ease.

The buildings in the city are mostly stone buildings, and there are shops selling all kinds of things on both sides of the street, making it very lively.

Although the City of Evil Ghosts is also within the Red Ghost Domain, it is more than 108,000 miles away from the Heavenly Army Ridge, one in the far north and the other in the far south.

Having already prepared himself mentally, Lin Xuan asked around and, as expected, there was no teleportation array.

Not only Ghost City, but also some other small cities did not have teleportation arrays.

Among the Ghost Clan, their methods of array formations and alchemy are extremely backward.

Even the formation protecting the city is only of the third rank, and it was set up by a renowned formation master.

Inside the City of Demons.

"Hey, have you heard? The Heavenly Ghost King's army lost and several Supreme experts were killed or wounded. Our Evil Ghost City is so close to the human territory. What are we going to do if they attack? I was even thinking of moving. Luckily, a merchant ship bound for Heavenly Army Ridge has arrived. Let's go home and discuss it!"

On one side of the street, a middle-aged man in a gray robe, who was selling things at a street stall, spoke to someone next to him.

"You mean, even the Supreme One is dead? How is that possible!"

"Supreme beings are all capable of ruling a region; their abilities are extraordinary. How could they possibly die? Don't try to fool me!"

The seemingly thin and honest man standing to the side looked completely incredulous.

"Why would I lie to you? Last night, I heard it from a cultivator who had fled back from the human front lines on Ghost Street in the east of the city. The scene was terrible. He originally wanted to go to the mountains on the border of the human race to dig up some spiritual herbs, but who knew that the Ghost King's ghost soldiers were all defeated!"

"But our Heavenly Ghost King's army has already conquered some territory, so how could they have suffered such a swift defeat!"

"How long has it been since you updated your information? More than half a month, right?"

"I believe you, Old Li, could you help me get a ticket for that merchant ship? I'm all alone anyway, and I came to Ghost City to make a living. I'm doing quite well here, and if it weren't for the threat from humans, I really wouldn't want to leave!"

"The ticket is available, but the three hundred low-grade spirit stones can only be kept in the cargo hold!"

"It's so dark!!"

"Are you out of your mind?"

"Okay, give me one. Going to Tianjunling is also a good option, let's move to a different location!"

……

"Sir, where exactly do I buy tickets for the merchant ship you mentioned? I'm heading to Tianjun Ridge!"

Lin Xuan leaned forward and asked.

"kindness?"

The stall owner looked Lin Xuan up and down, and his expression turned serious after sensing the pressure of Lin Xuan's cultivation level.

"At the dock in the north of the city!"

"The one with a two-headed ghost eagle branded on it is it!"

The middle-aged man in the gray robe replied.

"Thank you!"

After saying that, Lin Xuan threw out a low-grade soul stone.

Although he devoured a bunch of soul stones, he left them behind after calculating that some of the remaining soul stones would not be enough to break through his realm. Of course, Lin Xuan also obtained some spiritual herbs and soul artifacts from the ghost race.

After a while.

The northern dock of Ghost City.

This is a small dock spanning three kilometers, built on the banks of a large river.

There are many merchant ships of various sizes docked here.

Among them was a giant iron ship nearly a hundred feet long, which caught the eye. The reason was that two double-headed ghost eagles were branded on both sides of this giant ship.

The two-headed ghost eagle is a third-grade ferocious beast, and its speed is equivalent to that of an ordinary Golden Core cultivator.

Lin Xuan extended his divine sense.

He scanned the entire ship.

He sensed a ferocious beast egg on the ship. Judging from the pattern, he searched through Lü Qing's memories and found that it was the egg of a fourth-grade ferocious beast.

These unhatched beast eggs are very valuable, and some small and medium-sized families would often pay a price far exceeding the market value to purchase them.

Lin Xuan walked down to the merchant ship.

"Hey, Lü Qing, you're still alive!!"

At this moment, a young girl named Qin Lan, wearing a long purple dress, stepped off the giant ship.

After searching through my memory, I immediately understood.

Qin Lan's family was in the same city as Lü Qing's family. However, the Qin family was becoming increasingly prosperous, while when Lü Qing went to war, the Lü family only had a few servants and a steward left to guard the family's only soul stone mine.

Although Qin Lan hid it very well.

But Lin Xuan still saw a fleeting hint of killing intent in the eyes of the purple-clad girl with a kind smile.

"what's the situation!"

Lin Xuan was taken aback.

He couldn't find any record of any conflict between the two of them in Lü Qing's memory, and Lü Qing had even been in love with Qin Lan when they were young.

As a young talent in Barbarian Ghost City, Qin Lan possessed both talent and beauty. At that time, Lu Qing was not the only one who pursued her. It can be said that nine out of ten young disciples in Barbarian Ghost City had pursued Qin Lan.

"kindness!"

"Qin Lan, what are you doing in Ghost City?"

Lin Xuan replied calmly.

"This merchant ship belongs to our Qin family. We're here to broaden our horizons!"

Qin Lan replied with a smile, unaffected by Lin Xuan's cold attitude. This cheerful girl was also very beautiful. If Lü Qing were still alive, she might have already pursued him.

Unfortunately, Lü Qing is already dead!

"Could I buy a ticket back to Barbarian Ghost City?"

"We'll be leaving tomorrow evening, so we don't need to buy any tickets. Luckily, we still have one room available!"

……

After a while.

Lin Xuan boarded the ship.

After Lin Xuan entered his room, Qin Lan, who was accompanying him, froze on her face, a hint of doubt in her eyes.

She sensed that Lü Qing seemed to have changed!

Could it be that he/she has been stimulated by something?

The thought that Lü Qing had just returned from the front lines of the bloody battle against the human race made her feel somewhat relieved.

Immediately, a hint of excitement appeared in her eyes.

This guy is still alive! That means the contract for that mine from his family must still be with him! If he knew that a new medium-sized mine had been discovered beneath his Lu family's mine, he definitely wouldn't be on the human front lines!

"Should we contact Father? If Lü Qing finds out that his entire family has been killed, there might be some trouble. It would be safer to have another Nascent Soul cultivator to suppress him!"

Qin Lan was making plans in her mind.

In the end, he decided to send a message.

She had just checked Lü Qing's cultivation level. He was at the ninth level of the Golden Core Realm. Half a month ago, when he went to the human battlefield, he was only at the sixth level of the Golden Core Realm. In just half a month, he had reached the ninth level, and at the peak. His cultivation speed had caught up with hers. She had not yet broken through to the Nascent Soul Realm.

Qin Lan went directly to the third-floor room.

Knock on the door and enter.

Inside the room was a woman dressed in a pink dress, with a graceful figure. In one corner of the room, there was a small incense burner, from which wisps of smoke rose.

This filled the entire room with a unique fragrance.

This is one of the Qin family's treasured members, and the only Nascent Soul Realm expert on this merchant ship.

Immediately afterwards, Qin Lan took out a first-grade array plate and set up a sound-blocking array around it.

"Elder Zhao, Lü Qing of the Lü family has returned alive from the front lines, and he's on our ship!"

Qin Lan said softly.

Zhao Xiruo's delicate hand, which was sipping tea, suddenly stopped.

"Is this the Lü family, the family that inexplicably created a medium-sized mine beneath that abandoned mine?"

Zhao Xiruo slowly drank the fragrant tea in her mouth and asked.

Seeing Qin Lan nod, Zhao Xiruo's lips curled up slightly.

"I thought I was lucky to get a fourth-grade ferocious beast egg this time, but I never expected that a pie would fall from the sky like this, hehehe!"

Zhao Xiruo covered her mouth and chuckled.

A slightly seductive voice echoed throughout the room.

"Have you investigated whether the mining contract is with him?"

"Not yet. The Yang family searched the Lü residence from top to bottom, but found nothing. Moreover, the old steward of Lü Qing's family still has some backbone. He seems to be in the Yang family's prison to this day, refusing to be let go. He can be considered a loyal servant."

Qin Lan said.

"With your looks, getting close to her and using a few tricks, you can easily solve any problem!"

“I’ll give it a try. This Lü Qing seems to be a different person. His attitude has been very indifferent. I think he must have suffered some kind of blow on the human front. Now the human race has rebuilt the array barrier on the human-ghost border. The Heavenly Ghost King’s army was actually defeated. I think our merchant ships should not come to the Evil Ghost City line!”

A thoughtful look flashed across Qin Lan's eyes as she spoke.

"Yes, I've had the same idea for a while!"

"Although the human race is unlikely to engage in a large-scale war, there might be some minor skirmishes!"

"We can also take the opportunity to make money, but our safety will be greatly reduced!"

"We can arrange these things when we get back. Our primary goal right now is to get Lü Qing on our side!"

"Yes!"

The two then continued their discussion.

……

at this time.

Inside Lin Xuan's room.

"Oh, this must be the contract they were talking about!"

Lin Xuan probed into Lü Qing's storage bag with his divine sense and took out a contract scroll that was nearly a foot long. After opening it, he found the golden seal of the Domain Palace on it.

There is a lifelike miniature mountain on top.

This is a property scroll issued by the Red Demon Domain Government.

The person who possesses this scroll is the owner of that abandoned mine.

"It's interesting that a new medium-sized vein could be found beneath the abandoned mine!"

Lin Xuan then erased the remaining divine sense imprint left by Lü Qing and merged his own divine sense imprint into it.

In an instant, the scene before him changed abruptly, and he entered an illusion...
