The Art of Chaotic Divinity-Chapter 1191: Murong Qianjun

Yang Huanzhi snorted and cursed, "The Murong Clan can act this arrogant?"

Yang Huanzhi, despite his high status on Heaven's Illusion Island, had made his fortune through his own cunning schemes. Yet here in Tianhuang City, just because someone is a Murong, they can get away with this?

The nearby cultivator sighed helplessly. "Strictly speaking, that person is not technically a member of the Murong Clan. That dragon carriage belongs to the Murong family's steward. The person riding it is actually the steward's son, Murong Qianjun!" 𝕗𝐫𝐞𝕖𝕨𝐞𝗯𝚗𝕠𝘃𝐞𝚕.𝐜𝗼𝚖

"The Murong Qianjun family originally had the surname Cao. Later, because they rendered outstanding service to the Murong Clan, the clan master granted them the Murong surname."

"Hmph, so he is just the son of a watchdog. That makes him a spoiled dog!"

Yang Huanzhi said disdainfully, snorting. The cultivator jumped in alarm and hurriedly turned away, unwilling to associate with this group.

"In Tianhuang City, even a mere dog of the Murong Clan can walk around so arrogantly. It seems their power cannot be underestimated," Ling Feng said, rubbing the bridge of his nose. He was not intimidated by the Murong family.

The Murong Clan was formidable, but Ling Feng was no ordinary person either!

"Let go. First, we will visit the Tianmeng Chamber of Commerce."

Because of its unique climate, the Inner Sea was home to many rare and exotic plants that could not survive inland. Some of these herbs were especially useful for nourishing the spiritual consciousness and aiding in breakthrough cultivation.

Ling Feng had trained for three years within the Hourglass of Time. He had reached the peak of the eighth level of the Spiritual Element Realm but had encountered a bottleneck that he could not surpass through ordinary cultivation.

He knew this was because he had previously forcefully consumed the Essence Blood Pearl to break into the ninth level of the Spiritual Element Realm. The side effects of Chaotic Rebirth had caused his realm to drop dramatically.

His foundation had been affected, making a second breakthrough far more difficult than the first, perhaps ten times harder!

He needed the assistance of rare flowers, herbs, or other spiritual items to succeed.

...

Tianhuang City was undeniably much larger than Heaven's Illusion Island. It was densely populated and dazzlingly prosperous, with shops and markets of every kind.

Soon, Ling Feng and his companions arrived at a luxurious commercial street. The entire street was owned by the Tianmeng Chamber of Commerce, with countless shops catering to every imaginable need.

At the center stood a towering building with more than sixty floors. At the very top was a large auction hall, where a major auction was held every month to sell rare and valuable items.

Ling Feng checked the regular shops first but did not find what he needed. Finally, they headed directly to the largest store under the Tianmeng Chamber of Commerce, the Tianbao Pavilion.

If the pavilion did not have what he sought, the only option would be to try their luck at the auction.

They climbed the high building. Floors thirty through fifty contained twenty floors of display halls, all under the Tianbao Pavilion. This showed the immense wealth of the Tianmeng Chamber of Commerce.

When they arrived, many cultivators were browsing for materials. Ling Feng's group entered the building, and as they passed the entrance, he noticed the dragon carriage from the street earlier was now parked there.

He paid it no mind and proceeded inside, using the lift to reach the twentieth floor.

As soon as they entered, a maid named Ying Ying approached. She was moderately attractive, but upon seeing Ling Feng's current grotesque appearance, a flicker of disgust crossed her eyes. She quickly composed herself and put on a smile.

"Welcome, guests. How may I assist you?" Ying Ying asked politely.

Ling Feng felt a wave of irritation. Damn that Yang Huanzhi, he just had to give me such a disgusting look!

However, it was working well. No woman dared to look at him a second time. Murong Zining would not even recognize him even if he stood before her.

Clearing his throat, Ling Feng spoke in a slightly high-pitched, sharp voice. "I need herbs suitable for breaking through to the king-tier level, or items capable of spirit infusion."

"King-tier breakthroughs?" Ying Ying replied coolly. "Items of that level are only available above the fortieth floor. They are extremely expensive. You may ascend if you have the proper credentials. Without at least one million elemental crystals, you do not have the qualifications to go upstairs."

Her tone was polite, but it carried an imperceptible arrogance.

Ling Feng smiled inwardly. The Tianmeng Chamber of Commerce really knew how to keep up appearances. Even a mere maid dared to act superior.

However, he did not argue. He casually pulled out a VIP card and asked, "Will this suffice?"

"A Golden VIP Card?" Ying Ying's eyes widened in surprise. Even a cultivator of the Spiritual Element Realm possessing such wealth was unusual.

She hesitated, but then said firmly, "Sir, you still cannot enter. Even golden VIPs are not allowed above the fortieth floor."

Ling Feng frowned. Her stammering clearly indicated she was making excuses and trying to block him.

Not allowing golden VIPs to the fortieth floor? What a ridiculous rule!

Even the Tianmeng Chamber of Commerce headquarters in Tianbai did not have such regulations!

He placed a Supreme Black Diamond Card on the table and said coldly, "Do not tell me even this card cannot get me in. I was not aware there were VIP levels higher than this."

Ying Ying's eyes widened again, nearly fainting.

A Supreme Black Diamond Card?

You've gotta be kidding me! Only the head of the Murong Clan, the Venerable of the Desolate Sea, possessed such a card!

Could this plump man actually be a scion of a super-powerful family from the inland?

Ying Ying's face was drained of color. Beads of sweat rolled down her forehead. Someone with a Supreme Black Diamond Card was far beyond her authority to oppose, even the person who ordered her to handle it could not bear the responsibility!
