Chapter 375: A Large Number of Ancient Artifacts

"There's more?" The Middle-aged Vendor's words piqued Xiao Fan's interest.

The other party actually said there was more? Something similar to the small tripod?

"That's right, there is more. As I told you before, my ancestors accidentally discovered a tomb similar to an Immortal's, and they found quite a few things inside… This small tripod is just one of them. I wonder, little friend, are you interested in the others?" The Middle-aged Vendor wore a sheepish smile.

He was indeed not lying about this; there were indeed other things at home.

But as for whether it was an Immortal's tomb, that was not necessarily the case.

And he only spoke up because he saw that Xiao Fan had chosen the small tripod earlier and was generous with his spending.

After all, those things had been in his hands for many years, and no one wanted to buy them even if he tried to sell them.

If Xiao Fan was willing to take them, it would be best to sell them all to him.

Hearing this, Xiao Fan was overjoyed… However, his expression remained calm on the surface: "Fine, where are the items?"

Hearing Xiao Fan's agreement, the Middle-aged Vendor was overjoyed: "It's a hundred miles outside the city, where I have an Immortal Cave that I rented from the Imperial Capital."

Xiao Fan pondered for a moment, then nodded in agreement: "Alright, lead the way."

"Alright then." The Middle-aged Vendor ignored the other customers, immediately packed up his stall, and put all his items into his Storage Pouch.

"Xiao Fan, you're going there?" Hu Rui asked, puzzled.

Nangong Lingxuan also looked at Xiao Fan, her meaning the same as Hu Rui's.

She couldn't figure out why Xiao Fan wanted things similar to that bronze small tripod.

Xiao Fan nodded: "I'm going to take a look. I'm quite interested in these ancient artifacts. You don't need to follow me."

"Forget it, I'll go with you. It's boring to go back anyway." Hu Rui shrugged, intending to go with Xiao Fan.

Nangong Lingxuan didn't say anything, but her attitude showed she felt the same.

Xiao Fan smiled bitterly, but he didn't refuse.

After the Middle-aged Vendor finished packing, he led the way, taking Xiao Fan and the two women away.

After Xiao Fan left, several greedy gazes secretly watched them depart…

Renting an Immortal Cave is a very common occurrence, generally found within large cities.

Many experts are unwilling to live inside the city and want an Immortal Cave to reside in.

In such cases, larger cities will carve out individual Immortal Caves in the various mountain ranges within their sphere of influence to provide to these people.

However, the rental price is certainly not cheap.

Leaving the Imperial Capital, the group headed north.

A distance of a hundred miles was not too far for the current group.

Moreover, all of them had reached the Tongtian Realm and could fly through the air.

An hour later, the group landed at the foot of a mountain that was several hundred zhang high.

"We've arrived. Little friend, my Immortal Cave is right here." The Middle-aged Vendor smiled.

"Mm, let's go in and take a look." Xiao Fan nodded.

This Middle-aged Vendor had a cultivation level of the ninth level of the Tongtian Realm.

But in his eyes, he had absolutely no fear.

The Middle-aged Vendor was surprised; he didn't expect Xiao Fan to agree so readily.

Was he not worried about murder and treasure-looting?

In the cultivation world, there are only two types of people who can so easily trust others and enter an Immortal Cave.

One is a fool, and the other is someone who has nothing to fear.

Someone who has absolute strength to protect themselves, or has prepared a backup plan.

Hu Rui and Nangong Lingxuan wanted to persuade Xiao Fan, but seeing Xiao Fan's fearless demeanor, they swallowed the words that were on their lips.

After all, they knew exactly what Xiao Fan's strength was.

Xiao Fan turned his head and smiled at the two women, saying: "You don't need to go in. Wait for me here."

The two women nodded, understanding what he meant.

Not letting them go in was partly because Xiao Fan felt it was useless; he was just buying some ancient artifacts that might be useful to him.

On the other hand, if they really encountered danger inside the Immortal Cave, it would save the two women from having to risk their lives with him.

Furthermore, there would still be time to notify the Sect and have people come to help.

"Be careful." Hu Rui finally spoke up.

Nangong Lingxuan didn't say a word, but her eyes also revealed worry.

"Alright." Xiao Fan smiled and followed the Middle-aged Vendor into the Immortal Cave.

The Middle-aged Vendor was even more surprised; this young man actually dared to come in alone?

However, he didn't show anything unusual.

The stone door of the Immortal Cave opened, and the two entered.

As soon as he stepped in, everything inside Xiao Fan's body, whether it was the Wanxiang or the Enlightenment Seed, began to pulse…

"Little friend, the items are all over here, come with me." The Middle-aged Vendor smiled, signaling for Xiao Fan to follow him.

Xiao Fan suppressed the excitement in his heart, nodded expressionlessly, and followed the Middle-aged Vendor.

He led Xiao Fan to a room a hundred meters large, piled with various ancient artifacts, which looked quite old.

The Enlightenment Seed and Wanxiang inside Xiao Fan pulsed even more intensely; clearly, there were many things here that they favored.

"Where did all these come from?" Xiao Fan asked curiously, suppressing his surprise.

This time, he wasn't in a hurry to choose, as that might result in him being ripped off by the other party again.

"My… ancestors accidentally discovered an Immortal's tomb…" The Middle-aged Vendor started bragging again.

"Tell the truth…" Xiao Fan was speechless…

"I don't know either; that's just what my ancestors said." The Middle-aged Vendor shrugged, not hiding anything, and spoke frankly.

He felt that the way the other party selected these ancient artifacts was different from ordinary people, and since there were no outsiders here, he didn't intend to keep lying.

Xiao Fan nodded and began to make his selections.
