Chapter 797: Chapter 798: Pure Gold Bamboo

Western Region, Guixu City.

During the month since the opening of Guixu Sky, many powerful individuals from various major forces had not left the city. They all waited quietly for the warriors within Guixu Sky to emerge.

Especially the powerful ones from the seven major sects, who were now all waiting outside, talking among themselves. A look of impatience was visible on the faces of many among them.

"Guixu Sky is about to close, why has no one come out yet?"

A figure emanating a piercing Sword Intent, a warrior from the Heavenly Sword Sect, looked at Guixu Sky with an anxious expression.

The cracks in Guixu Sky had been getting smaller and smaller, and it was very likely that it would close in another hour or two.

But now, not a single disciple of their Heavenly Sword Sect had come out of Guixu Sky.

It was not uncommon for warriors entering Guixu Sky to perish within, but for not a single person to have emerged was definitely considered extremely odd.

Such an event had never happened since the opening of Guixu Sky.

"It’s not just your Heavenly Sword Sect’s people; none of our people from Ancient Desolate Sect have come out either."

Next to the Heavenly Sword Sect’s warrior, another martial artist spoke.

"What in the world happened in this session of Guixu Sky? Could it be that some ancient legacy or treasure was unlocked that none of them have come out?"

"But not even a single person has appeared."

Those warriors from the seven major sects were all discussing this.

However, besides the seven major sects, disciples from other powers had come out in droves.

It was just the disciples from their seven major sects that had not had anyone emerge.

"Swoosh!"

As everyone was talking, a streak of light suddenly flew out.

"What a fast escape light!"

"Who is this person?"

Many eyes turned to look at the light, its speed far surpassing that of an ordinary life-and-death realm martial artist.

"Is that Chu Fengmian? The number one person on the Beimang Academy’s Hundred Defeats List!"

A powerful figure suddenly recognized Chu Fengmian’s identity and shouted loudly.

"Number one on the Hundred Defeats List? A newcomer? To possess such a fast escape light?"

"This person must have obtained no small fortune in Guixu Sky!"

A newcomer who had just entered Guixu Sky already possessed such a fast escape light; it certainly indicated that Chu Fengmian had seized significant opportunities inside Guixu Sky.

However, Chu Fengmian’s light flashed past without stopping and quickly left Guixu City.

Chu Fengmian had already felt that there were many powerful individuals hidden around Guixu Sky, their gazes towards Chu Fengmian already filled with a hint of murderous intent.

Chu Fengmian’s departure from Guixu Sky, with increased strength, directly suggested that he had definitely gained a substantial benefit from inside it.

"A man with no guilt may be blamed for carrying a jade"; many martial artists were thinking of killing Chu Fengmian. Although Chu Fengmian came from Beimang Academy, the forces behind many of these powerful individuals were no less than those of Beimang Academy.

Thinking of killing Chu Fengmian, they naturally would not be daunted by the forces behind him.

Although these people were not yet a match for Chu Fengmian, any conflict with them would certainly reveal his true strength and bring unnecessary trouble. It was better to leave quickly now.

"Lord Demon General, are we not going to kill this man?"

Outside the walls of Gui Xu City, several shadowy figures’ eyes flickered as they watched Chu Fengmian depart, one of them couldn’t help but speak up.

"This man has slain countless talents of our Earth Demon Sect, and now he’s gained no small fortune in Gui Xu Heavens. If we don’t kill him, he’ll eventually become a major threat."

"After all, this is the Western Region, it’s not a good place to make a move. Once we get to the Northern Region, we’ll have ways to deal with him."

The Earth Demon Sect’s Demon General let out a cold snort as he spoke.

"This young man is now a thorn in the side of our Earth Demon Sect. The Sect Leader has already devised a plan, once he returns to the Northern Region, his days are numbered!"

While conversing, this group of Earth Demon Sect martial artists all dispersed.

On the other side.

Chu Fengmian was flying toward a city in the Northern Region, Dong Sheng City.

Not far from Gui Xu City, Dong Sheng City had a Teleportation Array that connected to other cities. The Western Region was vast, and with Chu Fengmian’s current strength, to traverse it through flight was still a strenuous task.

Thus, he could only first go to a city and then use the Teleportation Array to return to the Northern Region.

Dong Sheng City was not considered large, equivalent to the remote areas of the once great Wusheng Kingdom, where a few Saints were the strongest presence.

"Halt, those entering the city must pay one lower-grade Spirit Stone."

As Chu Fengmian descended at the gates of Dong Sheng City, several martial artists surrounded him, with one of the leading martial artists speaking up.

"Here."

Chu Fengmian’s mind moved, and he took out a lower-grade Spirit Stone from his spatial ring and tossed it to the martial artist, then he stepped directly into Dong Sheng City.

With his current strength, he could have easily intimidated these meager guards, who wouldn’t dare to stop Chu Fengmian.

Even the City Lord of Dong Sheng would have to be exceedingly courteous to Chu Fengmian.

However, it was just a single lower-grade Spirit Stone; it was a trifle to Chu Fengmian’s wealth, not worth the fur on an ox, so he simply paid the Spirit Stone and entered.

Upon entering Dong Sheng City, waves of hawking voices rang in his ears.

On both sides of the street were numerous shops selling Spiritual Medicine and Spiritual Artifacts, along with some stalls, most of which were manned by martial artists of modest strength.

Occasionally, they sold things to exchange for pills and Spirit Stones needed for cultivation.

Chu Fengmian glanced over these wares and lost interest immediately. Any item from the heavens in his spatial ring was thousands, if not tens of thousands, of times better than these goods for sale.

Chu Fengmian was merely idle and browsing out of curiosity.

"Hmm? This is actually a good find."

Chu Fengmian glanced over and suddenly saw three golden bamboos at a stall.

These three golden bamboos had leaves containing specks of gold.

"Pure Gold Bamboo, nice find."

Chu Fengmian took a step and walked over to the stall. The owner of the stall was a young girl, around seventeen or eighteen, with not much strength, merely at the Body Tempering Realm.

Even in Dong Sheng City, she would not be considered a prodigy; just someone of average aptitude.

The one thing that stood out was her appearance. Despite dressed plainly, she exuded a noble aura, seemingly of a very distinguished lineage.

"How much for these three golden bamboos?"

Chu Fengmian approached the stall and directly asked.
