Chapter 1483 - Golden Undead Knight
The open market’s appearance was precisely due to Burial Abyss!
From the past until now, every so often, Burial Abyss would open up, and then this place would become lively. The exceptional undead knights from various parts would gather.
This place became a place where they exchanged for what they needed, at the same time, it served as a temporary rest stop.
It was because in order to head to Burial Abyss, one needed all types of artifacts, as well as some rare materials. That was why some burial knights, even though they didn’t want to enter Burial Abyss, still came to sell ancient artifacts.
When s.h.i.+ Hao heard this, he became speechless. In his opinion, undead knights were taciturn, kept low profiles, slept for an endless amount of time, rarely appeared in this world. What city or other things was there to speak of about where they lived?
However now, he saw an open market, shattering some of his past thinking.
After thinking about it carefully, he became relieved again. The female undead knight had previously told him that undead knights weren’t just corpses that gained sentience, but were rather born.
Since it was like this, then there would naturally be interaction between them. Even though they usually remained asleep, not emerging in the world for many years, there were still occasionally times of exchange.
Of course, perhaps after some undead knights separated, they might only meet again after thousands of generations had pa.s.sed.
It was to the extent where there were acquaintances where, after they separated, the parting was eternal.
The behavior and lifestyles of this clan doomed their range and length of activity to be entirely different from everyone else.
“When will Burial Abyss be opened?” s.h.i.+ Hao secretly asked the immortal medicine, not daring to directly ask the Golden Undead Knight out of fear of leaking something.
“Based on normal reasoning, it should be soon, perhaps in these next few days.” The long life medicine replied extremely unwillingly.
s.h.i.+ Hao nodded. He discovered that this wasn’t a clear cut time, so he could interact with the creatures here. He then turned around to ask that undead knight whether or not they deduced the precise time of opening.
“We are about to move out soon. There are ancient undead knights who deduced that it might be today. Either way, it is soon, even if it opened up now, it wouldn’t interfere with much.” The Golden Undead Knight said. He had a head of golden hair that flowed with sunrise multicolored brilliance, extremely dazzling.
His name was Sanzang, having his own name. It was clear that this robust, deity-like male had an extraordinary ident.i.ty, because many undead knights treated him with great respect.
“He… might be an undead king’s descendant!” The long life tree was shocked, telling s.h.i.+ Hao that this man wasn’t simple, that he had to be careful.
“Brother Sanzang, are you not going to introduce this new friend to me?” Right at this time, a woman walked over, also in human form. Her movements were full of elegance.
Even though there were quite a few undead knights here, not all of them were human form. Many of them were giant beasts, there were some devil birds and other creatures.
This woman’s skin was fair white, eyes full of life, as if they could speak. She had a head of fiery red long hair that fluttered about like flames. Meanwhile, her lips were also bright red, extremely captivating.
She wore pure golden armor that flickered with dazzling brilliance. Her entire being was charming, and at the same time, the armor gave her an offbeat type of heroicness, making her draw great attention.
s.h.i.+ Hao really was starting to doubt if he really entered an undead knight nest, because this woman had red lips that literally were flaming hot, mist swirling about her, giving her a divine feeling.
He really found it hard to a.s.sociate this with death, underground, coffins, this type of thing. It really was as different as it could be.
“This dao brother is Huang.” The golden undead knight Sanzang introduced.
s.h.i.+ Hao didn’t fear his ident.i.ty being revealed, because when Huang was spoken in the ancient burial language, it was just a simple syllable and ordinary name, it wouldn’t make one develop any a.s.sociations.
Even if those from the other side came, if they heard the name Huang in the ancient burial language, they would still be completely confused, not knowing what it meant.
“Brother Huang, nice to meet you. I am Shenming.” The fiery red-lipped, charming woman smiled as she walked over to greet him.
s.h.i.+ Hao was stunned. He truly suffered a great mental shock today. If he told others, who would believe him? The so-called burial knights were all full of life, even more divine than the creatures of the outside world.
“Brother Huang could bring over a long life medicine, really is formidable. Our alliance on this side only brought a stalk of medicine, yet Huang could bring one all on his own, you truly are exceptional.” Shenming said with a smile, eyes swirling about. Her beauty could topple countries, possessing a type of irresistible charm.
s.h.i.+ Hao truly didn’t know whether he should feel shocked or horrified. He once again told himself that this was precisely a type of divine creature. Even though they enjoyed remaining underground in coffins, it was only a result of how their race lived, there was no need to think other thoughts.
After getting over this, when s.h.i.+ Hao faced her again, there was no longer any strange feeling. After all, this was a stunning woman with an extremely beautiful face that was beautiful and moving.
He dealt with this while consulting the immortal medicine, asking it what the effects of bringing a stalk of long medicine into Burial Abyss would be.
“Long life medicines can enter the burial region, able to bring back ‘heavenly treasures’ and ‘burial valuables’.” The immortal medicine secretly told him extremely reluctantly. If it wasn’t for this cooperation, it definitely wouldn’t tell him anything.
While s.h.i.+ Hao felt shock, he wanted to laugh out loudly as well. He told the old medicine that if there was no choice, then it had to do its best. Even if it was just for the sake of escape, it had to bring back some burial treasures as to not rouse suspicion.
Of course, if it really had great uses, bringing back heaven-defying stele scriptures and other things, he would naturally keep them. Who knows, this trip into Burial Earth might bring him great natural luck.
“That place is definitely not some good place, even if it is a long life medicine that enters, they will still be greatly affected! Please just let this go, I definitely won’t risk my life like this!” The old medicine said furiously.
s.h.i.+ Hao continued to interact with the female undead knight Shenming, feeling deeply shocked. The plant they brought was an immortal medicine after all. It swirled with brilliant colors, releasing a great fragrance.
Even from far away, they could all feel the immortal dao aura. There were nine divine rings around its body, one around the next, forming nine halos, as if a supreme immortal king was seated here.
This was a stalk of purple medicine, purple energy rising, multicolored light overflowing. It was as if a daoist was seated there, chanting scriptures, cultivating in seclusion.
s.h.i.+ Hao was extremely shocked. This stalk of medicine was strange after all, actually human-shaped. From its appearance, it looked like it had been harvested before as well, still not fully regrown yet.
Saliva began to run through his mouth. He really wanted to steal it, because this long life medicine was just too enticing for the creatures of the outside world.
He saw two stalks of immortal medicine in one day, this was simply like a dream! s.h.i.+ Hao sighed. If he could bring both of them back, then that really would shake up the Nine Heavens Ten Earths!
“This might be the medicine owned by that chicken raising fella!” The old medicine on s.h.i.+ Hao’s shoulder secretly said.
s.h.i.+ Hao was first shocked, and then he realized what it meant.
The so-called chicken raiser pointed at the powerful giant in the depths of the Ancient Burial Region. It was rumored that he previously found a True Phoenix who failed its rebirth, rescuing it.
Now, its feathers were gone, after being buried in a grave for endless years, it developed intelligence again. It was really like a chicken, roaming by that terrifying existence’s entrance.
It was clear that Shenming’s origins were terrifying. Otherwise, how would she manage to borrow this stalk of medicine?!
Even though these Golden Undead Knights were divided into several groups, with Sanzang and Shenming in the lead, even if others were more powerful than them, they still treated them with great respect.
“Brother Huang, do you have anything to exchange? You should take a look around to see if there is anything you need, we are going to head out soon.” Sanzang said.
“Understood.” s.h.i.+ Hao nodded. He put on an act, starting to examine the goods on the ground. In reality, he really couldn’t tell what they were, these things were too old.
However, he had to at least look the part.
What was that? A lump of dried blood? It was actually placed carefully on a piece of purple-gold coffin board, displayed like that. It seemed to be extremely precious.
“Do you know what these things are? Should I grab some?” s.h.i.+ Hao asked the old medicine.
“They are all extremely precious, some rarely seen treasures in Burial Earth. You won’t be able to exchange for any of them.” The old medicine said.
s.h.i.+ Hao didn’t really believe it. His eyes moved towards the lump of dried blood he saw before. It was dark and swarthy, really not looking all that glamorous.
“This is definitely the blood of an unmatched great figure. Don’t think that it is dried-up, lacking vitality, it is still a burial treasure with great uses. If you have something to exchange for it, then you should hurry and try to get it.” The long life tree said.
s.h.i.+ Hao felt some hesitation. He really didn’t see what was special about this. Perhaps it was only useful for undead knights, right?
He then looked towards the other ancient artifacts, for example, a withered tree branch, a damaged bone hammer, rotting coffin boards and other things. He didn’t detect a bit of divine nature from them.
“Brat, don’t look down on them. For example, let’s start with this tattered coffin board, even though it is rotting, it is a part of a long life tree. Countless years ago, its spiritual nature was terrifyingly great!” The old medicine said.
When he heard this, s.h.i.+ Hao was shocked. He felt like he was underestimating these things!
His eyes immediately erupted with light. This open market should have quite a few good things!
“These are things prepared for those entering Burial Abyss, so they naturally aren’t ordinary goods. Some of them are rare burial treasures!” The old medicine reminded him.
“Then I should exchange for some and bring them back to the outside world. Who knows, they might be heavenly treasures that might shock the world!” s.h.i.+ Hao said to himself, coming to this type of decision.
