Daily Intelligence, Starting Out I Obtain the Heaven-devouring Demonic Art

16: The virtual world is coming!Just as Wang Teng was studying the soul nourishing ancient jade, a profound, majestic voice suddenly boomed in his mind.

”The Void Realm has descended! Welcome, all Cultivators, to log in!”

It wasn’t just Wang Teng; this awe-inspiring voice resonated simultaneously in the minds of all Cultivators.

”Log in to the Void Realm!”

Wang Teng placed a hundred Spirit Stones beside him, then silently recited a phrase in his heart.

As the hundred Spirit Stones vanished, when Wang Teng opened his eyes again, he found himself in an immense, sprawling plaza.

Soon, one Cultivator after another appeared around Wang Teng.

Before long, the plaza became densely packed, a veritable sea of people.

However, all the Cultivators who appeared in the plaza were clad in black robes, and their faces seemed to be pixelated, preventing any scrutiny from others.

”Heh...! This setting is good! As long as one doesn’t want to be investigated by others, no one can know their identity!”

Wang Teng grinned.

At this moment, some Cultivators, based on the partial information they had, directly set up stalls on the spot, quickly seizing the business opportunity to display the items they wished to trade.

”Rare and precious Cold Moon Grass, only twenty Spirit Stones!”

”Crimson Blood Dragon Ginseng, a great tonic, cheap clearance sale, three hundred Spirit Stones and it’s yours!”

”Ten-Thousand-Year Profound Ice Marrow, a treasure for forging, five thousand Spirit Stones, you won’t be cheated, you won’t be fooled!”

”Don’t miss out, Fire Lotus Seeds for only two thousand Spirit Stones, once this village is passed, there won won’t be another shop like this!”

...!

For a time, the entire plaza was filled with shouts of hawkers, forming a massive market.

The Void Realm, though a virtual world, ensured that once a transaction was successful, the purchased item would appear beside the buyer in reality.

Wang Teng cleared his throat.

”I have information about the Saint Medicine Phoenix Blood Grass! Valid for two days, only ten thousand Spirit Stones!”

As Wang Teng’s words fell, the boisterous environment around him instantly quieted.

Numerous vendors and Cultivators all looked at Wang Teng in shock.

Saint Medicine, that was a legendary existence, extremely rare, difficult to come by, and incredibly precious.

”Where is the Saint Medicine Phoenix Blood Grass?”

A Cultivator asked anxiously.

”Want to know? Ten thousand Spirit Stones! And this information is only guaranteed for two days!”

Wang Teng said directly.

Within two days, the Phoenix Blood Grass would definitely be in the location he mentioned.

After two days, whether the Phoenix Blood Grass had been picked by someone? He wouldn’t know.

”Ten thousand Spirit Stones is too expensive, how about a hundred?”

This Cultivator immediately tried to cut the price drastically.

”That’s right! Ten thousand Spirit Stones is too expensive! It’s not the actual Phoenix Blood Grass, just information!”

”Exactly, and no one knows if your information is true or false, yet you dare to sell it for ten thousand Spirit Stones, what’s the difference between this and robbery?”

”Ten thousand Spirit Stones is indeed too expensive, this is a virtual transaction after all, what if the information you provide is false, we’d have nowhere to find you!”

”How about this, you tell us the information about the Saint Medicine Phoenix Blood Grass first, and if it’s true, we’ll give you the Spirit Stones!”

...!

The surrounding Cultivators all spoke up.

Wang Teng listened to the words of the surrounding Cultivators and was directly amused to anger.

It was precisely because it was information about the Saint Medicine Phoenix Blood Grass that it was sold for ten thousand Spirit Stones.

If it were the actual Phoenix Blood Grass, you think you could buy it for ten thousand Spirit Stones? That’s wishful thinking; even a million Spirit Stones might not be enough.

And some even suggested he tell them the information first; were they taking Wang Teng for a fool?

Once they truly confirmed the location of the Phoenix Blood Grass, who would still give him Spirit Stones?

”All of you, shut up!”

”Information about the Saint Medicine Phoenix Blood Grass, valid for two days, ten thousand Spirit Stones, no bargaining!”

”Stop bargaining with me here, if you want it, pay up, if not, get lost!”

Wang Teng rebuked aloud.

In this Void Realm, he feared no one.

Even if the opponent’s Realm was far higher than his own, it would be impossible to kill him, or even to investigate his information.

”You...!”

The surrounding Cultivators were furious upon hearing this, yet they were helpless, simply because this was the Void Realm, and everything was virtual, including the body of every Cultivator.

Furthermore, due to the rules of the Void Realm, they couldn’t even see Wang Teng’s body outline or face, let alone investigate his identity.

Just then... ”Senior Sister Su! You absolutely must not get carried away and spend ten thousand Spirit Stones to buy information about the Phoenix Blood Grass!”

”This Void Realm is completely virtual; if the other party is a fraud, we’ll be powerless against them!”

”Besides, even if the other party isn’t a fraud, the information about the Phoenix Blood Grass is only guaranteed for two days! We don’t know how far away the Phoenix Blood Grass is!”

”If it’s close, that’s fine, but if it’s far, this information will be useless to us, and we’ll lose ten thousand Spirit Stones!”

”Right now, ten thousand Spirit Stones is already a huge sum for our Sect!”

A loli-like voice came from a black-robed figure, speaking anxiously.

”Master is severely injured, has been unconscious and unable to recover, and urgently needs Phoenix Blood Grass for treatment! However, we haven’t been able to find any clues about the Phoenix Blood Grass!”

”Now, we’ve finally gotten a clue about the Phoenix Blood Grass, no matter what, we must try!”

Another black-robed person, with an older sister-like voice, spoke with firm determination, and at the same time, quickly walked towards Wang Teng.

”Senior Sister Su...!”

Seeing this, the loli-voiced black-robed person could only helplessly follow.

”Is the information about the Phoenix Blood Grass in your possession true?”

After the older sister-like black-robed person arrived in front of Wang Teng, she asked directly.

”Of course it’s true!”

Wang Teng replied.

”Senior Sister, oh Senior Sister, which seller of information would say their information is false?”

The loli-voiced black-robed person listened to their conversation and couldn’t help but helplessly rub her forehead.

She felt that her Senior Sister, due to Master’s critical injury, had long lost her usual rationality.

”I’ll buy it! I can trade you ten thousand Spirit Stones right now!”

The older sister-like black-robed person said in a deep voice.

As she spoke, she traded ten thousand Spirit Stones to Wang Teng.

At present, to save Master, she was unwilling to let go of any glimmer of hope.

And Wang Teng also fully informed the older sister-like black-robed person about the information regarding the Phoenix Blood Grass.

”The Phoenix Blood Grass is in the Great Wilderness...!”

When the older sister-like black-robed person learned the location of the Phoenix Blood Grass, her heart immediately surged with excitement, because their Sect was very close to the Great Wilderness, only half a day’s journey away.

The next moment, the older sister-like black-robed person’s figure gradually blurred, having already left the Void Realm.

”If the information you provided is false, even if it’s to the ends of the earth, we will never let you go!”

The loli-voiced black-robed person threatened Wang Teng fiercely, then her figure also gradually disappeared, leaving the Void Realm.

Wang Teng shook his head upon hearing this, not caring at all about the loli-voiced black-robed person’s threat.

Since the information about the Phoenix Blood Grass had already been sold, it was time to go to the most mysterious area of the Void Realm, the Great Dream of Ages district, to take a look...
