Cultivating the Dao, Starting with Farming

On the auction stage, the Void Refining Monk Wan Tiancheng gathered a deep force on his lips, his voice was steady and magnetic: "Dear guests, thank you for coming to my Wanbao Pavilion today. Everyone present is an expert, so I won't say more. The treasures in the world are often obtained by those who are destined to get them. It is a great fate that everyone can gather here today. I hope you can compete for your favorite things with your own strength, and make money in harmony."

As Wan Tiancheng's words fell, he waved his hand gently, and a simple-shaped sword box was transported to the auction stage. The sword box was surrounded by a faint aura, which looked mysterious and noble.

The monks present and the high-level monks in the VIP room used their own Dharma eyes and cast their spiritual consciousness to find out.

Wan Tiancheng smiled slightly, and touched the sword box with his fingertips. The sword box slowly opened, and a dazzling light shot out from it, shining in everyone's eyes. When the sword light dissipated, a white long sword lay quietly in the sword box, revealing the sword light.

"What a sword!"

A sword cultivator's eyes flashed with a gleam of brilliance, and he couldn't help shouting in surprise.

Many refining cultivators at the scene also showed astonishment, and they could clearly feel the sword power emanating from this long sword. This is definitely a rare sword.

Wan Tiancheng nodded with satisfaction, and gently pulled the long sword out of the scabbard. A sharp sword intent instantly filled the entire auction venue. He waved the long sword in his hand, and saw a sword energy several feet long condensed at the tip of the sword. The sword energy was like a dragon, with a piercing chill, and chopped towards a Qingyan puppet in the corner.

"Bang!" With a loud bang, the Qingyan puppet instantly shattered under the bombardment of this sword energy, turning into countless gravels that splashed out.

Seeing this scene, everyone present was shocked. They didn't expect that the power of this long sword was so terrifying.

Wan Tiancheng put the Frost Dragon Roar Sword into the sword box and introduced it with a smile: "Everyone, this sword is called the 'Frost Dragon Roar Sword'. It is made of the ten thousand year old cold iron in the ancient dragon veins. It has been tempered by the ten thousand year old ice in the Nine Netherworld. The sword body contains a trace of dragon soul power. When the sword is unsheathed, the dragon roars and can cut off everything. Just now, I only used the strength of a Yuanying cultivator to reach the peak of the spirit transformation sword."

After a pause, Wan Tiancheng continued to introduce : "This sword is the pinnacle work of Master Ou Ye, the guest refiner of our pavilion, who refined it in his later years. It is not only a sixth-grade top-grade spiritual sword, but also a peerless divine weapon with unlimited potential. It is just around the corner to be promoted to a seventh-grade Taoist weapon. It will be auctioned today, and those who are destined to get it will get it."

"The auction price of this sword: 20,000 top-grade spiritual stones, and each increase in price must not be less than 1,000 top-grade spiritual stones..."

As soon as Wan Tiancheng finished speaking, the cultivators at the scene were already excited, and discussions were heard one after another.

"A sixth-grade top-grade spiritual sword, and there is the potential to be promoted to a seventh-grade Taoist weapon! This is simply a rare treasure!"

"Master Ou Ye's work in his later years must be extraordinary. If I can get this sword, it will definitely greatly increase my strength!"

"The starting price of 20,000 top-grade spiritual stones is fair. I must fight for it!"

...

Many cultivators are eager to participate in this fierce auction. Among them, there are representatives of some big forces, and they stare at the sword box on the stage with a determined look.

The auctioneer was also very excited when he saw this, and he announced loudly: "The bidding begins!"

As soon as the voice fell, a cultivator couldn't wait to raise the sign in his hand: "25,000 high-grade spirit stones!"

"30,000!"

"35,000!"

...

The price rose rapidly. In just a few breaths, the bidding price had exceeded 50,000 high-grade spirit stones, and the atmosphere in the field became more and more tense. Every price change affected the nerves of the cultivators.

Looking at this scene, Wan Tiancheng nodded secretly in his heart. This "Frost Dragon Roar Sword" was so popular at the beginning. Thinking about the precious spiritual objects that were auctioned later, today's auction will definitely set a new record.

60 breaths passed in a flash, and the "Frost Dragon Roar Sword" was finally bought by a cultivator in the late stage of refining emptiness at a price of 80,000 high-grade spirit stones.

The sixth-grade high-quality spiritual swords were all being snatched by the cultivators in the hall. There were nearly a hundred VIP rooms, but few of them made a move, as if they were all waiting for something tacitly.

Wan Tiancheng naturally knew what they were waiting for, but the auction had just begun, and the seven-grade Taoist weapons refined by Master Li were the finale, so there was no need to rush for the time being.

Wan Tiancheng smiled slightly and waved his hand to signal the backstage to continue transmitting the next round of auction items.

Time passed unknowingly, and in a blink of an eye, the auction had been halfway through. At this time, Wan Tiancheng had a mysterious smile on his face, and his eyes swept over every cultivator present.

"Dear guests, the next auction item will be a major turning point in our auction today." As soon as Wan Tiancheng finished speaking, the atmosphere in the entire venue instantly became solemn, and everyone's eyes were fixed on the auction table.

I saw an exquisite jade box being sent to the auction house. Wan Tiancheng opened it, and then a strong medicinal fragrance suddenly filled the entire venue, which refreshed people. In the jade box, a crystal clear pill lay quietly. The surface of the pill exuded a faint light, containing powerful vitality.

"This is a sixth-level longevity pill - 'Changsheng Pill'!" Wan Tiancheng's voice was full of excitement: "This pill was personally refined by Master Wu of Taiyi Sect, and it consumed countless rare spiritual medicines. Taking this pill can not only greatly improve your cultivation, but also have the opportunity to extend your life by hundreds of years. It is a treasure that all cultivators dream of!"

As soon as these words came out, there were bursts of exclamations in the venue. High-level longevity pills are undoubtedly extremely rare treasures for many elderly monks present, not to mention the "immortality pills" that can extend life spans for hundreds of years. ".

"The bidding price is: 100,000 high-grade spiritual stones. Each increase in price shall not be less than 5,000 high-grade spiritual stones!" Wan Tiancheng announced loudly.

As soon as he finished speaking, the monks in the VIP room raised their signs one after another, and the price rose rapidly. In just a few breaths, the bidding price has exceeded 200,000 high-grade spiritual stones, and the atmosphere in the venue has become increasingly tense.

"Two hundred and fifty thousand!"

"Three hundred thousand!"

"Three hundred and twenty thousand!"

…

Prices skyrocketed, and every increase was accompanied by exclamations from the monks.

In the end, the "Eternal Life Pill" was collected by VIP Room No. 15 for a sky-high price of 450,000 high-grade spiritual stones.

The atmosphere of the auction was pushed to a climax, and Wan Tiancheng showed a satisfied smile on his face, knowing that the next few final items would trigger more intense competition.

"Alright, distinguished guests, this next auction item will probably make many of the Void Refining Taoists here crazy." Wan Tiancheng smiled mysteriously, attracting the attention of all the monks.

On the auction stage, light flashed, and a simple jade bottle appeared in front of everyone.

On the jade bottle, there are mysterious runes carved on it, which seem to contain some mysterious power. Wan Tiancheng gently opened the bottle cap, and immediately, a strange smell different from the previous medicinal fragrance filled the air, which made people feel refreshed.

"This is our second grand auction item today, the seventh-level Taoist elixir - Guixu Dan! This elixir is said to be the hand of Qingyangzi, the holy master of alchemy. All the elixirs used are expensive." Wan Tiancheng He announced loudly, impassionedly, and introduced loudly: "This elixir is specially made for Void Refining monks. Taking this elixir will increase the success rate of condensing the magic domain by 30%!"

"What!"

"This elixir really has this effect!"

"It's Tao Dan. I didn't expect that in addition to Tao soldiers, there would also be Tao Dan coming out today!"

…

As soon as these words came out, the venue exploded instantly. Condensing the realm is a key step for the Void Refining monks to enter a higher realm, but the success rate is extremely low. Many Void Refining monks present have stagnated because of this. Now, there is This Guixu Pill means that there are more opportunities to break through bottlenecks and enter a new realm.

"The bidding price: 200,000 high-grade spiritual stones. Each increase in price shall not be less than 10,000 high-grade spiritual stones. The auction time limit is: 100 interest!" Wan Tiancheng announced loudly again.

This time, even the high-level monks in the VIP room seemed to have joined the battlefield and started bidding one after another. The price climbed at an alarming rate, and every increase in price was accompanied by exclamations from the monks.

"Three hundred thousand!"

"Four hundred thousand!"

"Half a million!"

…

The price has been soaring, but the monks in the VIP room seem to be determined to win and unwilling to give up easily. In the end, after a fierce battle, the "Guixu Pill" was sold for a sky-high price of 700,000 high-grade spiritual stones, and was obtained by the monks in VIP Room No. 8.

Seeing that the Guixu Pill was pocketed by the high-level monks in the VIP room, all the monks present felt a sense of regret, but at the same time they also cast envious glances at the monks in the VIP room No. 8. After all, with such a precious elixir, it was only a matter of time before he advanced to the next level.

The atmosphere of the auction was once again pushed to a climax. Wan Tiancheng showed a bright smile. The auction has achieved the expected results, and the next few auctions will be even more exciting.

"Next, what we are going to display is another blockbuster treasure in this auction, which is an eighth-level weapon refining material - the broken boundary stone!" As soon as Wan Tiancheng finished speaking, the atmosphere in the entire venue became boiling again.

On the auction stage, light flickered, and a seemingly ordinary stone slowly emerged. However, if you look closely, you can see strange runes and textures flowing on the surface of the stone, which seems to contain endless power.

"Dear guests, this broken world stone is the key material for refining the Cave Heaven Magic Weapon." Wan Tiancheng introduced in detail, "The Cave Heaven Magic Weapon is what we dream of. It can form an independent small world and has endless magical uses. And this broken world stone The boundary stone is the key thing used to break the space barrier and build a small world when refining the cave magic weapon."

As soon as these words came out, the monks in the venue showed shocked expressions. The Cave Heaven Magic Treasure is a legendary treasure. Being able to have your own small world is very convenient for practicing, fighting or storing items. As the key material for refining cave-heaven magic weapons, the value of broken boundary stones is self-evident.

With the appearance of the 'Breaked Boundary Stone', the spiritual thoughts that emerged from the VIP room immediately surged out like a tidal wave, rushing towards the Broken Boundary Stone on the auction stage. Every spiritual thought is like a sharp blade, trying to penetrate the faint layer of light to get a glimpse of the true appearance of the broken boundary stone.

However, the protective array around the auction table was like a solid barrier, blocking those divine thoughts one by one, allowing everyone to perceive the extraordinary nature of the broken boundary stone through their naked eyes and spiritual senses.

In the VIP room No. 1, Li Mu stared at the broken boundary stones on the auction table outside the window. Although his face looked calm, his heart was in turmoil.

Innate magical power - Under the recognition of all spirits, the properties of the broken world stone are clearly displayed on the panel.

【Space Boundary Stone】

[Grade: Eighth-Level Spiritual Object]

[Characteristics: The solidified boundary is stone, space is the foundation, the boundary is self-contained, time and space are intertwined, and all things are compatible. 】

[Status: The boundary stone is restrained, the power of space is silent]

[Since the fragments of boundary stones in space, the internal space rules are woven, and the boundary becomes a world of its own. It can be as big or small as you want. It is the supreme spiritual object for refining the small world, and it is also the key to understanding the mysteries of space and mastering the flow of time and space. The power of space contained in the boundary stone has reached the ultimate concentration and stability. Although the surface of the boundary stone looks ordinary, it contains endless space mysteries inside. Under certain conditions, through special sacrificial methods, the power of space in the boundary stone can be activated to open up an independent small world. 】

"Elder Li, if you want to successfully acquire this boundary stone, I'm afraid it will cost a lot!"

Sensing the spiritual thoughts of the strong men in the VIP room, Sword Master Feng looked at Li Mu and said worriedly for him.

"Indeed! There are quite a few old guys eyeing this boundary stone!"

Sword Master Chen frowned, feeling a little nervous about the upcoming auction competition.

Li Mu took the bidding order and said with a calm smile: "You two sword masters, don't worry, I am bound to get this broken boundary stone."

There was an incomparable calmness in Li Mu's words. Sword Master Feng and Sword Master Chen couldn't help but smile at each other, and their worries were slightly relieved.

The auction continued, and Wan Tiancheng began to announce the bidding rules: "The bidding price starts from 500,000 high-grade spiritual stones. Each bid increase shall not be less than 20,000 high-grade spiritual stones. The bidding time limit is: 120 interest. Now, the bidding begins!"

As Wan Tiancheng's words fell, the monks in the venue began to bid one after another, and the price rose rapidly. The high-ranking monks in the VIP room were even more generous and participated in the auction one after another. The competition was extremely fierce.

"VIP Room No. 5: 600,000 high-grade spiritual stones!"

"VIP Room 11: 680,000!"

"The VIP room on the 17th offers 800,000 high-grade spiritual stones. Who else is there? There are still 30 seconds left."

…

The atmosphere in the auction venue became increasingly tense, and every time Wan Tiancheng made a bid, there was a slight commotion.

In VIP Room No. 1, Li Mu directly entered 1 million high-grade spiritual stones in the bidding order with a thought, pushing the broken boundary stone to a new height in one fell swoop.

"VIP Room No. 1, 1 million high-grade spiritual stones!"

Seeing this number, Wan Tiancheng was slightly startled, and naturally knew that the person in VIP Room No. 1 was Master Li.

The senior monks participating in the auction paused for a moment when they heard this number and stopped bidding. They seemed to be shocked by the price, and they seemed to be giving him a face and were not prepared to participate in the auction.

In the auction hall, the discussions among the Void Refining monks started one after another, causing a wave of excitement.

"Why did you stop? Logically speaking, one and a half million high-grade spiritual stones for a rare spiritual object like the Broken Boundary Stone is not too expensive!" Although the doubts of a Void Refining cultivator were not loud, but in this short silence, It seems particularly clear.

"You're stupid!" A more experienced Void Refining monk next to him chuckled: "Refining the small world is not just as simple as the broken world stone. It also requires the help of a weapon refining saint. Precious, it’s just a magical material for refining weapons. Without a holy master for refining weapons, everything is just empty talk.”

"So what, those big shots have so many connections! How come they can't find anyone to refine the small world." The Void Refining monk retorted unconvinced.

"You are right, the big shots do have a wide network of contacts, but refining a magic weapon of the level of the small world cannot be done by just finding a refiner." The old monk shook his head and continued, "Furthermore, Do you know who is sitting in VIP room No. 1?”

"Who is it?" the monk asked curiously.

"It's Master Li, the weapon-refining saint who can refine Taoist weapons!" the old monk said with respect.

As soon as he said this, the monks around him showed expressions of shock and envy. They all knew the name of Master Li. He had sent several Taoist weapons to this auction. They did not expect that he would appear here. At this auction, I didn't expect that he would spend a lot of money for the broken boundary stone.

"No wonder no one dares to bid with Master Li. Once he gets this broken world stone, he will be like a fish in water!"

"Yes, with the Broken Boundary Stone and Master Li's weapon refining skills, I don't know what kind of amazing little world will be created."

"I really came to the right time for this auction. I can actually see Master Li take action with my own eyes. It's really a worthwhile trip!"

The monks were talking a lot, with looks of anticipation and envy on their faces. (End of chapter)
