Chapter 507: 507

These black swords did not have the cold yin energy attached to them; instead, an overwhelming death aura shrouded them .

It was clear that they had been drenched in blood for many years, and that they had killed numerous experts, bathing in their life force .

Such treasures, although not as important as the Night Luminous Pearl, were still precious .

It was impossible to find a treasure that exuded such strong death energy in the Ghost Realm, as no living beings could be sacrificed for the sake of creating them .

As such, they were very valuable . With a sword like this, one would be able to enhance its attack power by a noticeable amount, and in turn cause extreme damage to any ghost that they encountered .

Any merchant would happily accept such goods, and the middle-aged ghost was no exception .

He was not going to keep them for himself, but they were heading towards the capital of the region, where they would fetch a good price . This was a place where dragons and snakes were mixed together .

The powerhouses were always looking for goods like these swords, and if he could provide them with such a rarity, then he would be paving a road to success .

The powerhouses would remember him, and help him out in the future, and his business would flourish .

He had thought that Xue Wei would bring more yin energy related materials, but when he saw the swords, his eyes looked at them with greed and happiness .

Initially, Xue Wei and Lan had agreed on two swords, but Xue Wei changed his mind to three swords, as there were a few other gadgets he wanted to get his hands on .

The two looked at one another, and then at the table in front of the middle-aged ghost .

The middle-aged ghost picked up a miniature carriage and showed it to Xue Wei . "This is a travel kit," he began explaining . "The carriage will keep this size until activated . It drives on spiritual liquid, and while it is rather fuel efficient and can travel rather far, it will be useless if you have no spiritual liquid remaining . "

Xue Wei nodded his head and accepted the small carriage . He quickly placed it in his storage treasure, and then he began haggling for the other treasures .

There were many exciting things, such as machines that could allow others to contact each other over a long distance, and mechanisms that allowed one to make small scale teleportation formations .

The middle-aged ghost looked at Xue Wei with narrowed eyes, and then he took out a few different machines from his storage treasure .

"This is a machine that condenses water from the air . It is not very useful for ghosts, but you can have it . I heard that living beings need to drink water to sustain their lives . "

Xue Wei was at a level where he could eat some fastening pills, and he would not need to consume neither food nor water, but it was always best to have such a mechanism with him .

The machines that the middle-aged ghost gave them were all very common . Some of them had a mediocre attack system; others had rather decent defenses .

Most of them had auxiliary uses though . They did not a.s.sist in battle, but they were capable of helping him with his everyday life .

Xue Wei handed over the three swords, and put away the many gadgets in his storage treasure before returning to the carriage that they had been traveling in .

He was not very curious about the village . He had already seen it when they traveled through; there was nothing of interest in it, no restaurants, and not many stores either .

There was no reason to venture out of the mayor's residence, so he went to the carriage to talk with Lan . They had to come up with a way to solve the most significant issue they had right now . How were they going to find Li Zhiqing?

Lan and Xue Wei were seated opposite one another . The blue snake had its wings folded, and its body curled up, but even so, Xue Wei could feel the pressure that was emitting from the beast .

Although he had sealed most of his powers, he was still overwhelmingly powerful when compared to Xue Wei, and this also gave him a certain degree of safety .

However, they were not sure how cultivation worked for the ghosts . Until now, the middle-aged ghost had not been willing to go into details, so their knowledge of this topic was somewhat lacking .

"I have a way to locate her," Lan said after contemplating for some time . "I have her soul imprint in my body, and I will be able to recognize her instantly when she is close to me . I cannot impart this soul imprint to others though . "

Xue Wei had expected this, and was not disappointed . "We will have to travel the Ghost Realm for quite some time then," he said casually, but he was not too worried .

He had around forty-nine years left to return to the Chang'an Continent and meet up with w.a.n.g Xiaoyun . Although it sounded like a lot, he knew that it might take them longer if they had to comb through the ghost realm, but he was still not dejected .

He believed that they would manage, one way or another, and even if they failed, Lan would somehow help him send a message to her .

Since he was here, he was going to focus on the task at hand entirely . He was going to help Lan reunite with his lover, and at the same time, advance his cultivation base .

The Ghost Realm was gloomy and desolate, but the air was so dense with heaven and earth essence that it was indeed a paradise for living cultivators . If he did not use this chance, then he would look down upon himself .
