Cultivating the Dao, Starting with Farming

Yes, it is indeed this person.

Li Mu confirmed the identity of the other party, and his previous speculation was shaken.

This man seems to be called Taoist Wanling. Is he spying on me secretly because he is an acquaintance?

If that's the case, there's no danger.

Just when Li Mu was frowning and thinking, Taoist Ling stood up and greeted him with a smile, "Fellow Taoist, do you remember me?"

Li Mu put down the tea cup, smiled slightly, and responded with cupped hands: "Fellow Taoist Wanling, we say goodbye to each other in Bihai City. I didn't expect to meet here."

"Ha, fate, I have never thought of meeting fellow Taoist here."

While Wanling Taoist was talking, he took out a pot of spiritual wine from the stored magic weapon. He unscrewed the bottle and the aroma of wine overflowed. He poured a glass for Li Mu and sat down in front of Li Mu.

Seeing Taoist Wanling's enthusiasm, Li Mu was unsure, but he still had a drink with him. The spiritual wine was fragrant in his mouth.

Li Mu glanced down at the spirit wine and complimented casually: "Good wine!"

"Fellow Taoist likes it, then let's have two more drinks. This auction won't be so fast for a while. There are many powerful people who haven't come yet!" Taoist Wanling introduced familiarly. Apparently, he had already participated in the auction of Wanbao Pavilion. Not once or twice, very familiar with the process.

People came in one after another, and when they saw Wanling Taoist, they came over in a familiar manner, three men and two women together, it was very lively.

Four of them are at the peak of Nascent Soul and one is in the middle stage of Nascent Soul. They all seem to have good strength. It seems that this Wanling Taoist has a wide range of friends!

As a 'gou Xiu, Zhai Xiu' Li Mu admires this kind of person who has a wide circle of friends and is good at communication.

"Wan Ling, who is this fellow Taoist?"

A man wearing a black cloak and a bamboo flute on his waist looked at Li Mu and asked curiously.

The other people were also curious and glanced at Li Mu. Seeing that he was only in the early stage of Nascent Soul, they didn't pay much attention.

Taoist Wanling looked a little embarrassed. He forgot to ask this fellow Taoist his last name and couldn't answer it for a while.

Li Mu stood up slightly and introduced himself: "My surname is Zhang!"

When several people learned Li Mu's surname, they only smiled politely and did not talk much.

Although Li Mu is the True Lord of Yuanying, he is only in the early stage of Yuanying. His appearance is already seventy years old and he is dying. It is obvious that his talent is just that. Not to mention that he is expected to step into the transformation of gods, it is estimated that it will be difficult to even reach the middle stage of Yuanying. , and are taciturn and not good at talking. They will not deliberately make friends with such people.

Li Mu was not taken seriously, and several people just sat down and chatted and laughed with Taoist Wanling, ignoring him the whole time.

On the contrary, Taoist Wanling would chat with Li Mu from time to time and behave in an amiable manner.

Li Mu responded casually with a few words, and his reaction was indifferent. He was wary of Taoist Wanling's deliberate approach, so he did not actively respond.

Unconsciously, the topic of the chat among the few people gradually changed direction, and they started talking about the ancient ruins appearing in Xingwang Sea.

"The ruins of Shuifu?" Li Mu raised his eyes slightly and asked curiously.

Listening to several people chatting, Li Mu was gradually aroused to explore. He listened to Taoist Wanling's statement that there was an ancient mansion there that was most likely the monks above the integration stage.

But he was only looking for the two-horned Blue Moon Jiao, and was not interested in this ancient cultivator magistrate, but now he is gradually becoming interested.

Seeing that Li Mu was listening attentively, Wanling Taoist sitting nearby smiled and filled up another glass of wine for him, and then introduced in detail: "The ancient ruins have been sent by the various forces who learned the news not long ago. And the strong men of the Void Refining Realm forced their way in, and all the treasures inside have been taken away, but this ancient cultivation house is a Fusion Realm existence, and there are many treasures inside."

"It's a pity that we are weak and can only pick up some rags at the back. However, these rags are also treasures for us, and it is a worthwhile trip." Taoist Wanling also showed happiness in his words.

The people at the same table were also teammates who went into the ancient repair ruins with Taoist Wanling. Their faces had different expressions when they heard this.

It seems that some people have gained something and are very satisfied, while others have gained little and are not satisfied.

But all this has nothing to do with Li Mu.

Just as a few people were chatting for a while, there were dozens of ups and downs at the ladder, and many strong people arrived one after another.

At this time, a ladder rose up, and Lin Baoqing was seen walking out of the ladder with the support of four strong men in the middle and late stages of transformation. Lin Baoqing still had a kind smile on his face.

These four powerful men who transformed themselves into gods, their eyes were alert to the surroundings, and their divine consciousness shrouded the entire floor. It was obvious that they were guarding the heavy treasures carried by Lin Baoqing.

From where Li Mu was sitting, he happened to be able to look up and down the ladder. As soon as Lin Baoqing appeared, he knew that the auction was not far away.

But at this moment, when Li Mu lowered his head to drink, he accidentally discovered the string of Buddhist beads in the hand of Wanling Taoist. At this moment, Buddhist inscriptions appeared on the beads with golden light, and the beads shook and pointed in the direction of Lin Baoqing.

The next second, Taoist Wanling raised his hand to suppress it. A burst of spiritual power poured in, and the Buddha's light disappeared.

The whole process took less than a breath, as if Taoist Wanling was deliberately hiding something.

"Wan Ling, why don't you put this magic weapon away and refine it again? It's jumping around and it's eye-catching." Another Taoist friend who Li Mu learned was called True Lord Qinghe during the chat just now reminded him.

Several others also agreed, even teasingly.

Wanling Taoist just laughed and did not answer, nor did he put the Buddhist beads in his hand into the stored magic weapon.

This string of Buddhist beads looks no different from ordinary Buddhist beads, except that it has a strong aura and is obviously a good-grade magical weapon.

The strange thing is that the aura of this magic weapon is sometimes high and sometimes low, making it difficult for people to figure out its level, as if it seems to be spiritually unstable.

Outsiders can't see through it, but this little problem is naturally not a problem for Li Mu. With his magical ability to identify all things, he directly scanned the string of beads. He always felt that there was something fishy about the beads.

In particular, Wanling Taoist's attitude towards him also made him feel a little strange, but he couldn't tell what was strange at the moment.

But after seeing this string of Buddhist beads and obtaining the information from the Heavenly Mansion Divine Power - Identifying All Spirits, Li Mufan suddenly came to his senses.

【Treasure Quest】

[Grade: Sixth Grade Spiritual Treasure]

[Characteristics: Exploring treasures, full of spirituality, and confusing atmosphere. 】

[Status: Spiritually impaired, intermittent loss of control. 】

[The Searching Spirit Bead is a treasure-hunting spiritual weapon refined from the bones of the sixth-level precious food-devouring beast, the seventh-level purple meteorite, the spirit-seeking stone, and the spirit of the food-devouring beast. It can patrol a thousand-foot range. Any spirit treasure inside, whether it is stored in a magic weapon or carried on the body, can be discovered by the spirit bead, and will guide the direction and inform the owner of the device who has the important treasure. You can usually carry the spirit treasure outside and hide yourself. Spiritual treasure aura, but this spiritual weapon has experienced a long period of time, its spirituality has been damaged, and its control is not satisfactory. It is necessary to find the seventh-level purple meteorite, find the spiritual stone, and refine it again to return to normal. 】

No wonder, I asked how could this Wanling Taoist be so enthusiastic about me.

He found out that he had an important treasure through these sixth-level spiritual treasures. Was there another plan to deliberately approach him?

snort!

If he hadn't possessed the innate ability to identify all spirits, he might have fallen into the opponent's trap.

However, this Quest Spiritual Bead is really a good treasure. If such a treasure falls into this person's hands, it is simply a waste.

The other party had bad intentions, and Li Mu didn't mind having a fight.

Li Mu looked at Taoist Wanling, whose thoughts were changing and his expression was calm, as if nothing had happened.

"Master Jiang, you are here, haha. Please take a seat inside later."

"Master Hong, you are here too. Please wait a moment. The reception desk will arrange a seat for you soon. I'm sorry."

Lin Baoqing passed by the reception area, and many monks in the reception area stood up to communicate enthusiastically.

But he didn't stop, exchanged a few words with others, and continued to move towards the auction venue. However, at this moment, he met Li Mu who was sitting in his seat, drinking and paying no attention to him, and he couldn't help but stop suddenly.

"Fellow Daoist Zhang, haha, you are here."

Lin Baoqing stopped for the only time, stepped forward enthusiastically, entered the reception period, and came to Li Mu.

This wave of operations could not help but surprise everyone around.

"Well, Shopkeeper Lin, you are busy with your business!"

Li Mu still sat upright and continued to taste the wine, still showing the attitude of keeping strangers away.

Lin Baoqing did not show any embarrassment and nodded.

"Fellow Daoist Zhang, I won't bother you. I'll have someone arrange your seat right away." Lin Baoqing remained the same, with a kind smile. He turned around and smiled and nodded to the stunned people around him, and then set off to the auction venue again.

The people around him looked surprised, and their eyes focused on Li Mu.

"Wan Ling, who is this person? Why is Shopkeeper Lin so interested in this person?" Qinghe Zhenjun, who has a good relationship with him, quietly communicated with Taoist Wan Ling secretly.

Wanling Taoist was also filled with doubts. Lin Baoqing, the shopkeeper of Wanbao Pavilion, treated Li Mu as if he were treating those powerful people in the spirit transformation realm, not to mention respectful.

"I am not familiar with Daoist friend Zhang, and I don't know his identity." Taoist Wanling whispered and responded truthfully.

Several people at the same table communicated secretly, but none of them could guess Li Mu's identity.

Biyun Immortal Lord, who didn't pay much attention to Li Mu at first and was even alienated, took the initiative to look at Li Mu and asked: "Fellow Daoist Zhang, you and Shopkeeper Lin seem to have a good relationship?"

Knowing that the other party was lying, how could Li Mu explain like this? He casually fabricated an identity and said: "I am an alchemist. Shopkeeper Lin just needed it before, so I made alchemy and supplied it, and we formed a little friendship."

"So that's it, Fellow Daoist Zhang, he turns out to be a master of alchemy!" True Lord Qinghe nodded clearly.

After learning Li Mu's identity, the attitudes of the Nascent Soul Masters at the table suddenly changed, with warm smiles on their faces.

After all, alchemists, weapon refiners, and talisman refiners are respected existences wherever they go in the world of cultivation.

After all, both alchemy and weapon refining are extremely difficult to understand. If you don't have talent, even if you force yourself to study hard, you may not be able to achieve advanced achievements. Instead, you will waste your practice and regret it for the rest of your life.

Because of this, alchemists are respected wherever they go, whether in the sect or outside, and everyone wants to make a good relationship with them.

Taoist Wanling frowned, looked at Li Mu and asked tentatively: "Fellow Daoist Zhang, what level of alchemist are you?"

Li Mu calmly glanced at Wanling Taoist, and said bluntly without blushing, "Fourth-level alchemist."

"Fourth level alchemy master?"

At this time, not only Wanling Taoist was surprised, but also everyone who was quietly eavesdropping on the scene was shocked.

No matter where he goes, the third-level alchemy master is respected by everyone and is fawned over by a lot of forces. Not to mention the fourth-level alchemy master, they are all elder-level existences in the sect.

Therefore, the people at the same table, Qinghe Zhenjun, changed their style and began to chat and laugh with Li Mu, and established friendship.

Wanling Taoist was shocked, but unlike others, he quickly calmed down. Although the fourth-level alchemist has an extraordinary status, he is not so dazzling in the Zhongzhou Continent where there are many talents. There are also many fourth-level alchemists in Zhongzhou.

Only in other spiritual realms, fourth-level alchemy masters appear to be so noble.

A fourth-level alchemy master possesses a lot of treasures, and he should also have a large number of fourth-level elixirs, as well as a large number of spiritual herbs, elixirs, and spiritual stones. If he kills them, he will make a lot of money from this trip.

The wealth of a fourth-level alchemy master is enough to be worth the wealth of dozens of Nascent Soul Lords and even the Lord Transformation God.

A trace of greed flashed in Taoist Wanling's eyes, and the fire of greed burned in his heart. He had made up his mind that this man must be killed!

Li Mu glanced at Taoist Wanling, feeling secretly wary in his heart, but his face remained calm.

The mantis stalks the cicada, and the oriole stalks behind. Who has the last laugh is still unknown.

With the arrival of Lin Baoqing, the master of Wanbao Pavilion, it also indicates that the distinguished guests are almost here and the auction is about to begin.

Wan'er also rushed over and handed the token back to Li Mu. Her face turned red and she said respectfully: "Senior, Wan'er will take you to your seat."

"Yes!" Li Mu nodded slightly and said goodbye to the others at the table. Under Wan'er's guidance, he took the lead in entering the auction venue.

Passing through the splendid passage and stepping into the lobby, there is an auditorium large enough to accommodate hundreds of people. The decoration is luxurious and mainly made of gold. Even the seats are exquisitely carved fourth-order rattan cloud chairs.

However, there was no one in the audience now. Just when Li Mo was confused, Wan'er led Li Mu up another level and climbed to the VIP seat.

The VIP seats are separate rooms, the decoration is also extremely exquisite and luxurious, and it has an isolation formation to prevent others from peeking into it.

The interior is filled with spiritual wine, spiritual fruits and various pastries, and the service is attentive and considerate.

"this!"

Li Mu raised his eyebrows slightly. As a young Nascent Soul, it was absolutely impossible for him to come to such a high-status VIP table.

"Senior, Room No. 7 was arranged by Shopkeeper Lin. It is your auction room. Every time you increase the price, you only need to enter the amount you want to bid on the token." Wan'er responded playfully.

Hearing this, Li Mu didn't know that Lin Baoqing had probably found out all about himself.

That sixth-order soul-eating gun was the natal magic weapon of the Nine Nether Demon Lord. It would be strange if his identity was not exposed when it appeared on his body.

The battle between the Yuling Sect and the Nine Demons Sect has long been rumored. Demon Lord Shiyin and Demon Lord Jiuyou disappeared mysteriously one after another. In this battle, 'Li Jianxian' shone brightly and became famous, almost spreading. All over the Southern Spiritual Territory.

Lin Baoqing didn't expose his identity, and kept all the arrangements secret. He was obviously preparing to make friends with him.

Faced with such good luck, Li Mu accepted it smoothly. Bidding in such a wing can avoid a lot of unnecessary trouble.

"Thank you to Shopkeeper Lin for me."

"Okay senior, if you have any needs, you can send me a message through the token. I'll be waiting at the door."

Wan'er smiled cutely and didn't forget to close the door when she went out.
