Chapter 387 -240: Asking for Help
Li Shiming didn’t immediately check the storage bracelet; his gaze fell on two items of the Third Grade Five Elements Formation materials displayed in the hall.
His divine thought moved through the formation as if it were nothing at all.
He wrapped his divine thought around the two items of Third Grade Five Elements Formation materials, and then they vanished into thin air, taken into his space ring.
As the two items of Third Grade Five Elements Formation materials disappeared, the entire loft’s formation hesitated, and outside in the marketplace, the large formation originally there roared and dissipated.
The cultivators inside the marketplace all looked up simultaneously, among them the Foundation Establishment Cultivators sensed more clearly, and they discovered the disappearance of the marketplace’s grand formation.
“The marketplace has been breached, run for it!” A cultivator was the first to react, shouting loudly.
Soon, more cultivators also reacted, scattering in all directions.
The originally orderly marketplace broke down due to this sudden unexpected event.
The cultivators were not honest; lacking the defense of the marketplace’s grand formation, they could leave the marketplace from any direction, but many didn’t want to leave empty-handed.
Taking something just because it was convenient had become the natural thing to do; some cultivators stole spiritual objects from the stall-owning cultivators, and battles began in an instant.
More cultivators set their sights on the lofts above, where higher-value spiritual objects were sold, realizing that looting there was far better than stealing from stall-owning cultivators.
Many stall-owning cultivators, seeing the situation turn dire, quickly closed their stalls, instantly becoming part of the robbers.
The cultivators initially had some fear, as the Hang Family had a Golden Core cultivator, but when the first group of cultivators rushed into a shop and the Hang Family’s Golden Core cultivator didn’t appear, the cultivators went wild.
They kept assaulting each loft; these lofts survived on the prestige of the Hang Family and were at most managed by a single Foundation Establishment Cultivator, hardly enough to withstand so many.
In the midst of the chaos, a terrifying pressure swept over the marketplace; all cultivators felt the suppressing force of a Golden Core cultivator.
“What has happened here? How dare you rob the marketplace!” Hang Jian had spotted the trouble in his family’s marketplace from afar, arriving to find it in complete disarray, originally peaceful and stable, it had now turned into such a state, and he roared in anger.
Hang Jian was the head of the Hang Family and their only Golden Core cultivator.
His divine thought swept over all the cultivators, who quickly calmed down from their frenzy and then began to tremble with fear.
Under the absolute suppression of a Golden Core cultivator, killing these cultivators would take but a breath’s time.
Hang Jian forcefully suppressed the urge to kill, well aware that killing without clarity could erase the century-long reputation of the Hang Family at this location, making it unfeasible to operate a marketplace thereafter.
The marketplace was extremely lucrative for earning spirit stones, and due to its presence, a vast amount of resources moved in and out, always encountering some high-value spiritual objects that could be bought first, providing huge benefits to the Hang Family alone.
Hang Jian’s divine thought swept over the main loft, where he discovered Li Shiming packing up, as well as the body of Hang Yuqing.
Li Shiming couldn’t be blamed for his greed when he had discovered a warehouse on the third floor protected by a space formation, containing a large number of spiritual objects.
Although these spiritual objects were all of the second grade, their value was substantial due to their quantity.
While emptying the warehouse and scouting other areas, he sensed a powerful divine thought and his heart tightened.
“Damn, this Hang Family’s Golden Core cultivator has returned!” He had already grasped the situation at the moment, grabbing Ji Hongbo from the ground, while sending out several messages.
These messages were calls for help sent out via the Identity Jade Disc and the Guest Identity Card.
Disciples from the Shushan Sect could send out distress signals when in danger, and as a guest alchemist for the Beishu Trading Company, he could similarly request aid from the Beishu Trading Company.
In the vicinity of hundreds of miles from the marketplace, there was a convergence of spiritual veins and several small to medium-sized cultivation forces.
The source of this c𝐨ntent is freeweɓnovēl.coɱ.
Among these, not a few were connected to the Beishu Trading Company; three Golden Core cultivators simultaneously received urgent messages from the Beishu Trading Company and headed to the designated location to assist guest alchemist Li Shiming.
Li Shiming might not be well-known among major sect cultivators, who seldom went outside to buy spirit pills, but aside from the major sects, other cultivation forces were very familiar with his great name.
Li Shiming had become synonymous with top-grade spirit pills, holding a reputation where products bearing Li Shiming’s name were guaranteed to be exquisite.
Upon receiving the urgent message from Beishu Trading Company, the three Golden Core cultivators didn’t hesitate for a moment and were already heading to the designated location.
Meanwhile, the Shushan Sect received a distress message from Li Shiming; Sword Cultivator Elder Zhao was the fastest, immediately using Sword Escape to head there, followed by Elder Su who halted his cultivation and flickered away from the sect, and then Elder Ma also took a flying boat towards the location.
Although other Golden Core elders did not mobilize, they all kept an eye on the situation.
Li Shiming was still within the sect’s territory, and for him to send back a distress signal, there must have been an immensely powerful enemy.
The importance of Li Shiming to the sect was clear to every sect cultivator.
In the territory of the sect, having a true inheritor alchemy disciple forced to send a distress signal was absolutely an affront to the Shushan Sect’s face.
