Chapter 89 Ready to go

In recent days, the sect has been extremely busy due to the matter of the quota for the Netherworld, and it has been even more bustling than in the past.

The scheduled trip was approaching, and the journey to the netherworld was only a few days away.

Although those disciples who did not have the chance to make this trip could not hide the envy on their faces, they became more enthusiastic about practicing and vowed to strive for that precious spot in the future.

As the deadline approaches, the disciples who have been allowed in have also begun to take action. Some are busy updating their equipment, some are immersed in improving their skills, and some careful ones are preparing various types of elixirs in case of emergency.

The Netherworld is an ancient secret realm that is not only rich in resources but also harbours unspeakable crises.

Monsters are rampant, traps are numerous, and formations are strange. If you are not careful, you may be seriously injured and fall into coma at best, or lose your soul at worst. The line between life and death is between a stone and a stone, so you can't be negligent.

Shangguan Jiannan knew this very well, and his former contempt had long since disappeared, replaced by unprecedented caution and vigilance.

Although the Netherworld Jade Pendant in his hand was not as convenient as a storage ring, it was enough to hold dozens of items. The daily necessities and medicine supplies were properly arranged by his servants, so he did not need to worry too much.

At this moment, Shangguan Jiannan was wearing a purple robe and carrying a long sword on his back. He was galloping down the mountain path. Each step was more than half a meter long. His figure was as fast as lightning and his imposing manner frightened the onlookers and they all retreated away.

The purpose of his trip was clear. He went to Huyi City first, one to purchase what he needed, and the other to exchange for the precious Xuanming Pill. He vowed to make full preparations for this journey to the underworld.

Stepping into the bustling and noisy city, Shangguan Jiannan in his purple robe stood out in the crowd. He walked with firm steps and a clear goal, secretly planning every next step in his mind.

In an instant, this matter attracted a lot of attention.

The residents of Huyi City, a city adjacent to the Tianjian Sect, are well aware of the noble status that the purple robe carries.

The pedestrians on the road were initially surprised, but that was only for a moment. Then they kept a subtle distance and quietly avoided Shangguan Jiannan, the inner sect disciple of the Tianjian Sect. No one dared to offend him easily.

The scenery along the way passed by quickly until Shangguan Jiannan suddenly stopped and a building came into view - "Jinxiu Building", Li Shishi's property, which he unexpectedly encountered here.

He stood quietly among the bustling crowd, his eyes cast deeply on the three glittering gold-plated characters of "Jinxiu Building". The luxurious appearance was amazing.

At this moment, Shangguan Jiannan couldn't help but feel a surge of emotion in his heart: "This is the glory of my Hanying Peak."

A faint and proud smile quietly bloomed at the corner of his mouth.

As I walked into the building, a smart waiter quickly came up to me with a flattering look on his face.

Shangguan Jiannan casually rewarded the waiter with one or two taels of silver, and the waiter was even more delighted, and hurriedly led the way. After all, the identity of the inner disciple of the Tianjian Sect was something that servants like them dared not neglect.

Arriving on the third floor, Shangguan Jiannan stated his purpose and was immediately received by a middle-aged man.

The purpose of this trip was simple, just to exchange for the Xuanming Pill, so Shangguan Jiannan did not deliberately look for Li Shishi.

He just waved his hand lightly, and the counter was suddenly filled with all kinds of items: spiritual stones, monster furs, various materials... a dazzling array.

"Please exchange all of these for Xuanming Pills, and please calculate their value."

Shangguan Jiannan spoke calmly and indifferently, and then he waited quietly for the middle-aged man's calculation results.

Naturally, the middle-aged man did not dare to slack off in the slightest regarding the request of the inner disciple of the Tianjian Sect, for fear that any mistake would affect his livelihood.

He quickly and carefully counted the items on the counter, while Shangguan Jiannan waited patiently by the side.

Most of these items were of no use to him, they were just some random odds and ends he picked up in his daily life.

As for the precious inner core of the fourth-level monster Flame Blood Tiger, Shangguan Jiannan naturally regarded it as a treasure and did not show it to others easily.

Soon, the middle-aged man finished the inventory and respectfully reported to Shangguan Jiannan: "Sir, although these items are rare, their value is relatively mediocre, so the number of Xuanming Pills obtained from the exchange is limited."

After saying this, he presented the elixir that he had prepared long ago with both hands, his eyes full of awe and respect for Shangguan Jiannan.

All in all, these items were enough to be exchanged for about 180 Xuanming Pills, the middle-aged man reported respectfully. At this moment, he did not dare to be careless at all.

Shangguan Jiannan nodded slightly when he heard this, thinking to himself that this value coincided with his own estimate.

"Exchange them all."

Shangguan Jiannan's tone was calm, but it revealed his unquestionable determination.

Upon hearing this, the middle-aged man quickly took action and put away the items on the counter one by one. Then he took out an exquisite small cloth bag from his sleeve, which contained the precious Xuanming Pill.

Shangguan Jiannan took the cloth bag, his eyes lightly swept through it, then he moved his wrist slightly, and the cloth bag and the Xuanming Pill inside seemed to blend into the air and disappeared without a trace.

After completing the transaction, Shangguan Jiannan did not stay for long, but turned around and walked out of the door of "Jinxiu Building".

At this moment, a hint of anticipation had quietly arisen in his heart.

"Tomorrow, we will head to the underworld."

He thought to himself, “There must be countless treasures hidden in those ancient ruins, which have attracted all the major sects to compete for them.

There, opportunities and dangers coexist. How many opportunities can I, Shangguan Jiannan, seize? And I wonder what the current situation of Senior Brother Zhan Tai and the others is like. Are they ready to go on this unknown adventure together? "
