At the beginning, I traveled through the wilderness, and I controlled the beasts to survive...

The second stall.... garbage.

The third stall...still garbage!

As he walked forward, Han Ning felt as if he had come to the prop room of a movie crew, where there were all kinds of strange and varied things.

For example: mottled iron swords, broken armor, old jade, clothes of unknown age that give off an old and corrupt smell, yellowed costumes, Hunyuan golden bowls, paper figurines, copper coins... there are simply too many and too diverse.

These things are just shabby, without any energy fluctuations or strange aura. I wonder which crew these junk were picked up from.

It's made to look mysterious in order to attract rich men to be deceived.

He could understand why most of the stuff was shabby; the intact antiques were in museums.

When Han Ning reached the middle of the black market, in front of a narrow stall of only one square meter, he stopped.

A faint smell of blood rushed into the nose.

He looked sideways.

A skull of an unknown animal wrapped in black cloth and stained with large amounts of blood and minced meat came into view.

"Wait! Just look, don't reach out!"

Just as he was about to reach out and fiddle with it to investigate, a low voice was heard.

The person who was speaking was covered in a black robe, and his face and age could not be seen clearly.

Han Ning withdrew his hand and examined the skull carefully.

Judging from its appearance, it should be some kind of large python, about the size of a palm.

When his mental power scanned over it, he could vaguely discern a wisp of blood-colored energy flowing in the skull.

"It can emit this level of fluctuations even after death. It must be a creature of at least extraordinary level."

Han Ning made an evaluation in his mind and said,

"How much is this skull?"

"50, no bargaining!"

"50? Wow, he just asked for an apartment in the county town."

Han Ning lost interest immediately after hearing this.

My predecessor worked very hard for a year and only earned a few hundred thousand or even tens of thousands. This skull may be precious, but it is definitely not worth 50.

Without even the desire to bargain, Han Ning withdrew his gaze and continued walking forward.

"and many more!"

After taking only two steps, a light shout came from behind.

The stall owner, who was covered in a black robe, revealed a pair of bloodshot eyes from the shadow of his hood and said word by word,

"30 million!"

"It's too expensive. I'm only interested in the python skull. Anything under 5 is acceptable."

"5... You insult me ​​and my brother, I will kill you!"

A fierce wind blew, and a pair of skinny hands with sharp nails were about to grab Han Ning's neck.

"Fuck, where did this lunatic come from?"

A fierce light flashed in Han Ning's eyes, and he raised his foot and kicked the man out.

Pfft!

The kick was so powerful that it knocked the opponent and his stall to the ground.

Gululu~

The bloody head rolled to the ground, leaving a trail of blood.

"If you like being a baby, keep it to yourself and don't go fucking crazy and bite people everywhere."

Han Ning glanced at the masked men who were hurrying towards him, cursed softly, and turned away.

The man covered his stomach, walked forward and hugged the skull. His eyes seemed to be fixed on the fallen watch. He was stunned for a moment, but did not catch up.

The masked man who came over saw this man's behavior, asked the stall owner next to him a few questions, and learned about what had happened here before. He shook his head and left.

To be honest, Han Ning was a little disappointed with the things sold on the black market.

It's all some messed up stuff.

There are very few objects that truly contain energy.

Most of them are just for show.

This black market, which was converted from an air-raid shelter, is about 500 meters long.

Soon, he walked from beginning to end, and apart from the bloody skull, he didn't find anything useful!

"It seems that what is sold here are some medicinal materials, which are convenient for making potions. Is there an inner field..."

Standing at the end of the street, Han Ning frowned and thought to himself.

It took him only an hour to browse the entire black market without any gain.

"Forget it, let's come back tomorrow. If there's still no good stuff, we can only ask Zhang Nengfa for help."

Han Ning returned to the elevator along the corridor and was about to press the button on it.

Suddenly, his eyes moved.

A piece of paper was seen in the gap between the elevator and the wall.

A tattered piece of paper cutting was stuck inside like trash, with no one paying attention to it.

The moment he stared, the spiritual power within the spiritual world of the Four Symbols Meditation Method did not react at all.

However, in the spiritual world of the sea of ​​blood, a lion-like creature composed entirely of sea of ​​blood suddenly emerged.

The eyes of Suanni flashed with a blood-red light as he stared straight ahead.

Its gaze seemed to be able to penetrate Han Ning's mind, penetrate fantasy and reality, and freeze on the paper cut.

Han Ningfu came to his mind and stretched out his hand. A light mist gathered, bringing a slight breeze, which blew the piece of paper in the gap into his palm.

This is a tattered paper figure with dull colors and almost indistinguishable face.

One look at it shows that it has been washed away by time.

The paper figure was only the size of a palm, colorful and covered in dust.

A few seconds after he touched it, the paper man seemed to wake up, blinked its dull eyes, and looked at Han Ning.

at the same time.

The Suanni in the spiritual world let out a silent roar.

The mental force poured into the palm of his hand like a flood.

The paper man combusts without fire.

A faint ray of blood light flowed along his arm and into his mind.

“The panel is finally back.”

He couldn't use the paper man's function for the time being, so he couldn't wait to call out the current panel data of the three soul beasts.

"Om~"

The elevator opens.

Han Ning went in.

He was just about to close the door.

A disheveled figure hurried over and pretended to get into the elevator.

"It's him."

Han Ning frowned, but did not drive the man away and made way.

This person is the one who just sold the python skull.

The man entered the elevator, pressed the button, the door closed, and the elevator quickly went up.

"I saw you in the prophecy."

squeak squeak~

Along with the sound of old machinery turning, the man with his back against Han Ning spoke slowly.

Han Ning remained silent, thinking that this man was mentally ill.

He discovered that the extraordinary people in this world all had some abnormalities in their brains.

If it weren't for the mental power he carried with him, he would have been immune to the bloodthirsty desire brought about by the extraordinary ritual.

He guessed that he was now just like these psychopaths, going crazy all the time.

"You're a culinarian, aren't you?"

The man turned around and looked at Han Ning with bloodshot eyes.

Han Ning still didn't speak.

At this time.

There was a squeak.

The elevator door opens.

Han Ning ignored him and walked out.

The man followed suit, speaking in a hurried tone:

"Help me, help me!"

"My friend disappeared in the ruins. He once predicted it before he was imprisoned."

"At 12.24: a.m. tonight, a monster covered in black fog will appear before me."

“That will be our savior.”

The two stood in the dark and silent passage.

This time, Han Ning stopped and looked at the camera above his head.

The black fog spread, enveloping the two of them.

"continue."

"My name is Li Changxi, and I'm a Sequence 8 medium."

"Five days ago, my friend and I accidentally discovered a small ruin in the deep mountains of Tonghe County outside Ludao City."

"It is a netherworld ruin filled with evil spirits, and there live powerful evil spirits in it."

“At the same time, it is also filled with precious treasures.”

"After discovering the ruins, we immediately organized five people, all of whom were Sequence 5-5, to enter the ruins to search for treasure."

"But the danger of the ruins is beyond our imagination."

"Five people entered, and only I left."

"This python head is a treasure I brought out from the ruins."

"If you promise to go into the ruins with me and rescue my friends."

"I'll give you the skull for free."

Li Changxi speaks with a strong local accent.

Han Ning listened to one sentence and asked three questions before he roughly understood what had happened.

"Why me?" He looked puzzled.

"Prophecy, my friend is a prophet of Sequence 7, and his initial sequence is a culinary scholar." Li Changxi replied.

"A skull is not worth enough. For some reason, my strength has dropped significantly. I need something more rich in spiritual energy."

A place where even a Sequence 7 would be deeply trapped is enough to show how difficult and dangerous it is.

He is now just a little Karami of Sequence 9. Although his mental power is far superior, he needs to at least recover some strength before he can investigate further.

"I'll think of a way. Give me two days, no, one day. As long as you agree to help us, we can swear a blood oath and no one will betray anyone!"

"Forget about the blood oath. You can help me or not, but I will not sign any contract with a dying man."

Han Ning glanced at him. Even without using his mental power, ordinary people could see that this man's mental state was abnormal and his body exuded a rotten smell.

"I am cursed. Only the treasures in the ruins can help me remove the curse."

Li Changxi held the skull and handed it to Han Ning.

"Take it, it means you agree."

Han Ning didn't answer. His expression was calm.

"Go collect these materials. I'll give you one day. Meet me at the gate of Bian Tang Village at this time one day later."

He reported in detail the materials needed to evolve the omelet into the Frost Mist Snake and the small fat silkworm into the Dark Owl.

"Collect as much as you can. I will decide whether to go or not based on how detailed your collection is."

"If I don't come within ten minutes, it means I refuse."

Li Changxi listened to the densely packed materials with a dazed expression, but in the end he gritted his teeth and nodded:

"I see……"

……

After a simple agreement, Han Ning did not stay any longer. He quickly walked out of the Blue Bay Bar, took a taxi and returned home.

He took out the psychic liquid and mental liquid given by Zhang Nengfa from his bag and absorbed them all.

All the energy before entering the Abyss Prison has disappeared.

After deducting the energy required to activate the panel, there is currently 1 point left.

He exchanged for 0.5 energy points and added them to the panel of the omelet.

A faint white light flashed.

The size of the omelet has become slightly larger.

"Fizz!"

Egg Pancake fiddled with the snake's body and felt himself becoming a little stronger.

I couldn’t bite through children’s skin before, but now I can!

I have to say, it is a small progress.

Poor omelet, I can only use these excuses to comfort myself.

"Too little, too little energy, I need more energy."

As the saying goes, it is easy to go from frugality to luxury, but it is difficult to go from luxury to frugality.

Having experienced energy increases of hundreds of thousands or even millions, Han Ning was extremely uncomfortable with returning to the energy-scarce situation of the "early stages of entrepreneurship".

"We must let Egg Pancake and Little Fat Silkworm complete their first evolution, and then use energy points to push their strength to above the awakening level before we can consider entering that ruins."

Han Ning estimated that the extraordinary level currently displayed by this world was not as good as that of the Amethyst World.

The psychic fluctuations of a Sequence 9 Transcendent are similar to those of an entry-level soul beast.

Sequence 8, Sequence 7, most likely between awakening and transcendence.

His mental power is now close to the third level and has the quality of Xuan Yue. If it is amplified by mental power, it will be enough to raise the strength of the soul beast to extraordinary.

With three extraordinary-level soul beasts, plus his borrowed soul skills, he should be able to sweep away those low-level extraordinary people.

After thinking for a moment, he took out his phone and sent a message to Xie Mingke: "Are you asleep?"

Then, regardless of whether the other person was asleep or not, he directly sent a voice message.

Teachers’ dormitory building of Lu University.

Xie Mingke, who was wearing a facial mask and sitting in front of his laptop, editing an excel spreadsheet, saw the message box that popped up in the lower right corner. He subconsciously frowned and couldn't help but cursed:

"It's this murderer again."
