The Divine Dao Alchemy Emperor
Chapter 282
The palace hall naturally could not block the way; in fact, the Star Brilliance Palace Hall was located within the canyon. This canyon is a must-take path from the Nine Countries in the North of the Outlying to the northern regions.
This canyon is called the Fallen Moon Gorge. According to legend, this was originally a high mountain, and the northern region ended up here. There was no way to pass through it because on top of the mountain a terrifying presence was circulating, and even a Infant Spiritual Tier cultivator would become its victim.
However, a few years ago, the moon of the night sky suddenly fell, cutting the mountain peak into a canyon, and thus it received the name of the Falling Moon Gorge.
It is precisely this canyon that opens the way. Some martial artists dared to pass through the canyon to enter the primitive area. Through continuous battles with the beasts, the Nine Nations in Desolate North were finally formed, expanding the territory of the northern region.
Now, that high mountain was still insurmountable, so one could only walk through the Fallen Moon Gorge. Therefore, this place is very crowded. Every day, there were a large number of martial artists coming from the Nine Nations, wanting to expand their horizons, and some martial artists returning from the northern region, returning to their homes.
In addition, there were a large number of merchants who brought the specialty products of the Nine Nations in Northern Desolate to the northern region or vice versa; the profits were large, the profits were large, but their efforts are especially dangerous because the land beyond the Nine Nations in the remote North is a lawless area, where robberies and murders happen all the time.
From here to the Star Brilliance Palace Hall was only a half-day trip, but this part of the road was also the most dangerous.
Fortunately, the two carriages belonged to the 'Storm Mercenaries,' an extremely powerful force in the Fallen Moon Gorge region. Normally, no one would dare to get an idea of the wagon with the Storm Mercenaries flag.
Ling Han took Hu Niu and sat on the carriage. In his previous life, he spent most of his time in the pill refining room, studying; only at the "end of the year" - did he walk out to the ventura historic site, increasing his knowledge.
In this life, he did not plan to miss out on such an incredible variety of scenery.
At this moment, they had already entered the Fallen Moon Gorge. Both sides had steep cliffs towering like clouds. Ling Han activated the Eye of Truth, but he still could not see the mountain peak, yet he could see the evil Qi emitted on the mountain wall.
This presence even made him feel somewhat nervous. In other words, even if he were to come here with Heaven Tier strength, he would also have to be extremely careful; it seemed that the legend was not merely a legend, possessing a certain degree of truth.
However, what surprised Ling Han was that under the canyon was a field of medicinal ingredients, growing extremely well.
"The medicinal ingredients planted here won't be stolen?" Ling Han asked, feeling it strange.
Guang Yuan went up after hearing that. "Nobody would dare. These medicinal fields were given by the Star Brilliance Palace Hall to farmers for planting. If anyone dared to steal the medicine, they would be captured by the orders of the Star Brilliance Palace Hall. Bandits also did not dare to steal, as they needed medicinal pills as well and if those with money were unwilling to sell them, what could they do? "
Ling Han could not help but laugh; the alchemists were certainly a group that surpassed the norm. No wonder that alchemists were all proud of — no matter how strong a martial artist was, they could not do without medicinal pills, naturally feeding the arrogance of alchemists.
The carriage drove slowly, and after a while, suddenly the sound of discord sounded in front.
Although Ling Han did not like to interfere in other people's business, he could do nothing about the cultivation improvement that strengthened his hearing. Even if he didn't want to hear it, he still did it when the voices of dissension floated here.
"This price is really too low. Not only can we make money, but also we will suffer losses!"
"Young Master Fu, show mercy, and think of it as following the price of last year."
"Hmph, we want to meet Chief Luo. Why is the price lower year by year, how do you expect us farmers to live?"
Ling Han focused his gaze. The Eye of Truth easily pierced through the layers of leaves, only to see a group of a hundred peasants burning in anger, surrounding three people. These three people were clearly the important and the less important. The first one was a twenty-year-old youngster wearing an embroidered dress, looking extremely arrogant. The other two were probably the errand boy who was around thirty years old, guarding the youngster's side.
"What does this have to do whether you live or not with this young master?" The young man snorted. "Immediately send the medicinal herbs to the Star Brilliance Palace Hall at this price. In three days, if the medicinal field still had the rest of the medicinal herbs, this master would cut off anyone's dog's head!"
"With a cheap price, not to mention how busy it is this year, we have to sell our sons and daughters to sustain our lives!"
"How can you do this, are you trying to hunt us to death?"
The farmers shouted consecutively, each waving a medicinal hoe, looking extremely angry.

The young man in embroidered clothes sneered, and said, "Oh, you guys have the courage to actually dare to act disrespectfully in front of this young master! Can you want this young master to sort through the Star Defense Force, capture all of you?"
There were many farmers, but each of them was a normal person. This youngster was surprisingly at the fifth layer of the Gushing Spring Tier; it was equivalent to a group of ants surrounding an elephant, completely ineffective.
However, this youngster used some Star Defense Force to scare them. It was not an act of exaggeration, it was meant to scare these farmers into giving their lives to make money for him; otherwise, it was meant to scare them away, how could he have such great patience instead of just committing murder.
As expected, after the farmers heard the three words 'Star Defense Force', they all involuntarily shivered. Some of them knelt down at once and said, "Young Master Fu, we beg of you, give us a way out!"
"With just this purchase money, we will literally starve to death!"
"Young Master Fu, please!"
Even more people knelt down, prostrating to the youngster; among them, there was no shortage of old and gray-haired men.
"God!" The youngster threw a kick, reversing the person blocking in front. "Panen potions for this young master, and if these medicinal herbs had still not been sent to the Star Brilliance Palace Hall three days later, this young master would have sent the Star Defense Force, after all, arrest you all despicable people."
"Young Master Fu, you really hunted us to death?" There were still a few people who had yet to kneel; their eyes flushed continuously, staring intently at the youngster in embroidered clothes.
"Young Master Fu, you really hunted us to death?" There were still a few people who had yet to kneel; their eyes flushed continuously, staring intently at the youngster in embroidered clothes.
The young man in embroidered clothes wiped his nose and said coldly, "What does this have to do with this young master whether you die or not? If you don't take care of business for me, hmph, then this young master will make you wish for death! "
"Remember, three days, only three days," he added with a disgusted expression. In his eyes, these normal people who were not even in the Body Refining Tier were tools used to make money for him.
If a group dies, then change to another; make money — he makes a lot of money — is the most important thing.
Ling Han immediately understood that the Star Brilliance Palace Hall was hiring these cultivators to grow medicinal herbs. This young man was in charge of collecting it, but he lowered the purchase price to a point lower than the cost of production, naturally making these farmers stop.
This guy is really tyrannical, lowering the price to the point of hunting people to death. To kill a goose that lays golden eggs, isn't this forcing people to rebel?
"What an uncontrollable young man!" Guang Yuan snorted. Based on the Spiritual Ocean Tier's hearing, he naturally heard clearly. He might not pity the peasants, but a feeling of disgust towards the youngster's methods still surfaced within him. After all, someone at the Gushing Spring Tier was bluffing some normal person just to make a little more money shamefully, no matter how one looked at it.
"This master will see how amazing he is!" He jumped off the train.
Ling Han crossed his arms behind and followed behind, while Liu Yu Tong and Li Si Chan remained in the carriage. Since Ling Han came personally, what incidents could not be resolved?
