Chapter 619: 228. Star Raft Market, Brushing Past (6.2K words - Asking for Subscription)

Ning Yunmiao and Reacher got off the ship, while Song Yan stood by the window made of a crystal light dome, silently observing the distance.

The place he stood was at the edge of this market, and the entire market... had already completely surpassed his understanding of a "market."

Dense black material flecked with golden stones formed fragmented rafts. These rafts were extremely large, each almost the size of a city in the Mortal World. Fortunately, the cultivators here had vast divine senses; otherwise, what would meet the eye would not be a bustling market but an empty, sparsely populated "ghost street."

In the air above the bustling market floated "red lanterns," each resembling a small sun, emitting a soft light. Although this place was the void, it was very bright, akin to midday in the Mortal World.

In the gaps between the rafts, dense moss that devoured light grew, making the ground exceptionally dark.

Song Yan could not discern why the moss could exist in the void, but he could determine that the "golden stones" were actually high-purity Profound Yellow Material. However... compared to the fragmented black material, the high-purity Profound Yellow Material seemed merely third-rate.

Thinking of what Ning Yunmiao had said, Song Yan murmured to himself, "Star Rafts, could it be that each of these rafts is crafted from an entire realm?"

Looking again, he saw these star rafts patched and temporarily connected together in a way that reminded him of the small rafts used in rivers and lakes in the Mortal World for mundane trade.

When arriving, they gathered into a bustling market, and when departing, they scattered like birds, leaving only ripples in the sea.

Such a simple trading model yet presented before Song Yan in a grander, more astonishing form, making him realize how the "Myriad Swords Star Realm," "Vast Sea Celestial Strange Sword Palace" were worlds far beyond his imagination.

At this moment, he actually felt a bit of the nervousness akin to a mortal first entering an Immortal Sect.

But suddenly, a strong sense of vigilance surged within him.

If such a terrifying world exists, wouldn’t he be as insignificant as an ant in front of the enigmatic elder named Ning Daozhen?

Who would grant an Ascension Order to an ant?

What has Ning Daozhen seen in him?

Truly, all he could offer was the "Remaining Life Dao Fruit."

"Could it be for the Remaining Life Dao Fruit?"

In his original world, Song Yan had never heard of Dao Fruit, but in this terrifying new world, he couldn’t help but think this way.

Otherwise, if they are not after any treasure, why give him an opportunity?

It makes no sense.

Yet soon, he became puzzled once more.

If Ning Daozhen truly detected the aura of Dao Fruit on him, why not just capture him and then either refine him or throw him into an alchemy furnace to make pills?

If Ning Daozhen needed him to walk into a trap willingly, it wouldn’t seem realistic.

First, it was unnecessary; second, it was uncertain.

Because even he himself, when he actually saw this Nine Cranes Ancient Bronze Ship, didn’t expect he’d escape using such a method. The many dangers he encountered on the path of cultivating profound, each was a brush with death. Not just Ning Daozhen, even if he were to reassess, he’d feel... if it happened again, he might not be lucky enough to survive.
