CHAPTER 1585: CHAPTER 1585: WANMIN CITY, BRING THE GUILD OVER
"What you’re considering is reasonable. In that case, let us return together."
Lin Chen looked at the Zhang family trio and said lightly.
Lin Chen truly did not expect that Zhang Lin’s state of mind could be so clear, able to clearly recognize their own lack of strength.
One must know, for most martial artists, when faced with a once-in-a-millennium opportunity in these ruins, they would surely not miss it.
However, Zhang Lin could timely curb his greed, a state of mind that few could attain.
Currently, everyone was extremely far from the teleportation exit within these ruins.
After all, it was through tremendous effort that they reached this place. Now, to return to the teleportation gate area, given everyone’s flying speed on the Mysterious Heaven Continent, it would take at least four to five days.
But the pressure in these ruins was different from that on the Mysterious Heaven Continent, slowing everyone’s flying speed tenfold.
So, to reach the teleportation gate, it would take at least forty to fifty days.
Moreover, if one does not take into account the potential crises they might encounter along the way, it would take even longer.
Thinking of Zi Ling’s urgency to return to Yunlong Heavenly Palace, Lin Chen did not want to waste time on the journey.
Thus, he sold items to Zhang Caiyun, Zhang Hongying, and Zhang Lin at slightly above cost price.
Subsequently, everyone used the Qiankun Escape Talisman to teleport near the teleportation passage.
Upon arrival, Lin Chen discovered that this place was only forty to fifty thousand miles from Yang Flame Island, and with Lin Chen’s flying speed in this world, it would take two to three days to reach.
Lin Chen took out a map and recorded the location on it so that next time he teleports from Mysterious Heaven Continent to Yang Flame Island, it would be much more convenient to head to the Combat Power Hall.
Then, Lin Chen and the others used the teleportation array in front of them to return to the Mysterious Heaven Continent. With a dizzying spin, everyone finally returned to the familiar world.
Looking at the familiar place before them and breathing the familiar air, Zhang Caiyun, Zhang Hongying, and Zhang Lin felt myriad emotions.
If not for Lin Chen, they would likely have struggled to leave the ruins alive.
The Creation Realm experts stationed at the Mysterious Heaven Continent were not surprised by Lin Chen and others’ appearance.
After some inquiries, Lin Chen and the others learned that many martial artists had returned to the Mysterious Heaven Continent from the ruins before them.
It seems there are many martial artists who treasure their lives. They quickly return to the Mysterious Heaven Continent after obtaining some treasures from the ruins.
After all, those ancient ruins were too dangerous; any carelessness could lead to death and destruction for weaker martial artists.
Only disciples with strength like Lin Chen and others would head to places as remote as the Combat Power Hall.
If Lin Chen did not possess teleportation talisman inscriptions, they would still be traveling within the ruins.
Many martial artists are able to control their greed because life is the most important.
Though the ancient ruins contain numerous opportunities, one must be alive to enjoy them.
Some martial artists are quite clever: after exiting the ancient ruins, they sell the treasures they’ve acquired to commerce guilds nearby and then exchange those for powerful life-saving magic treasures before entering the ruins again.
At the border of the Cloud Dragon Kingdom and Dark Dynasty, there is an incredibly bustling commerce town called Wanmin City.
’Wanmin’ means all, regardless of empire, which is why this town is a neutral town, with martial artists from both countries and even a branch of the Bright Moon Commerce Guild established here.
After hearing the words of the stationed person, Zhang Lin quietly breathed a sigh of relief.
He was worried they came out too early, becoming a laughingstock in Yunlong City and being seen as cowards by other forces.
Now it seems that many martial artists left before them, dispelling his concerns.
Subsequently, Lin Chen inquired about the location of Wanmin City, pondering whether to sell his magic treasures there in exchange for spirit crystals.
However, upon arriving at Wanmin City and inquiring at several shops, Lin Chen found that these merchants were all unscrupulous.
They calculated that martial artists exiting the ruins would be eager to sell their treasures quickly, fearing robbery or wanting to head back for more exploration.
Many Heavenly and Earthly Treasures in these martial artists’ hands would fetch a good price at other commerce guilds. But at Wanmin City’s guilds, prices were severely undercut.
The reason was simple: martial artists feared losing their treasures upon leaving the two countries’ guarded area and potentially being robbed.
So, rather than risk losing the treasures, they preferred exchanging them at Wanmin City for some elixirs and magic treasures to strengthen themselves.
Since these ancient ruins opened, countless martial artists have flocked.
Many did not seek opportunities in the ruins but acted like praying mantises, targeting martial artists exiting the ruins to rob them.
However, at the teleportation gate area of the ancient ruins, with Yunlong Heavenly Palace’s War Department and Cloud Dragon Kingdom’s military stationed, those bandits dared not act rashly.
But once martial artists leave this area, they become vulnerable.
Because of this, martial artists leaving the ruins prefer selling their treasures to Wanmin City’s merchants rather than risk taking them away and using the proceeds to buy resources for cultivation.
Upon understanding the situation, Lin Chen’s eyes immediately lit up.
This place was simply a perfect opportunity to amass wealth. If Lin Chen were to open a branch of Lingxi Commerce Guild here, it would undoubtedly be profitable.
The elixirs, magic treasures, and talismans produced by Jade Cauldron Sect are unmatched by other merchants.
Although Jade Cauldron Sect currently cannot produce high-grade magic treasures, elixirs, and talismans, Lin Chen’s offerings are the best among merchants of the same tier.
Therefore, these martial artists would surely prioritize exchanging their treasures at Lingxi Commerce Guild.
With this in mind, Lin Chen decided to discuss this with Zhao Lingxi upon returning.
This journey into the ruins had been very fruitful for Lin Chen, though his only regret was not finding Wan Qiansan in the ruins.
After all, the ruins are vast, and finding one person is easier said than done.
