Chapter 279: Baibi Fang

It is because Zhao Guotai is remote and lacks sufficient cultivation resources that only those above the Foundation Building stage can afford flying artifacts. Not only that, but Chu Guo is not located on a spiritual vein, so the spiritual energy here appears to be more abundant than in Zhao Guo. The burden of flying artifacts on those in the Qi Refining stage is not as great. Otherwise, in Zhao Guo, even providing Qi Refining cultivators with corresponding flying artifacts would be difficult to sustain the consumption of spiritual power.

Afterwards, Lin Qing visited several markets in Chu Guo and found some things that even caught her attention. Third-grade spirit herbs and various materials, although rare here, can still be found in the markets. Lin Qing, with the intention of enriching the family's treasure trove, bought quite a few.

On this trip, Lin Qing brought over two hundred thousand spirit stones just for purchasing items to enrich the treasure trove.

In the following days, Lin Qing and Lin Yuanwu approached the border between Chu Guo and Da Li. The spiritual energy here was even more abundant, and there were more cultivators. There were also many large markets. That day, Lin Qing and Lin Yuanwu entered Baibi Fang, which ranked among the top three markets in Chu Guo.

This market belongs to the largest sect in Chu Guo, the Star Moon Sect. The Star Moon Sect is where the fake pill is located. The person behind the fake pill is called Xingyue Zhenren. He is one of the two Gold Core cultivators in Shangyunzhou, along with Zhen Dan Tian Yanzhi from Da Li. Of course, now we have to add Baibao Dao Ren from Baibao Tower, making it the three major Gold Core cultivators.

With the Star Moon Sect as its backing, no one dares to cause trouble in Baibi Fang. However, because this market is important, the Star Moon Sect still has Purple Mansion cultivators stationed here.

Lin Qing and Lin Yuanwu came to this market because they heard that an auction was going to be held here, and they happened to be here.

As soon as they entered the market, Lin Qing's eyes lit up. The flow of people in the market was much larger than in Chiyang Xiancheng, where most scattered cultivators gathered in Zhao Guo. Moreover, in terms of storefronts alone, they were much larger than other markets, and the variety of goods sold was also complete.

In some large shops, there were third-grade artifacts for sale, not to mention ordinary items.

Lin Qing even saw third-grade talismans in one shop and bought them with spirit stones. He didn't need them himself, but they would be great for the family's treasure trove.

Lin Yuanwu's eyes lit up even more when he saw a particular shop.

"Master, this shop actually sells spirit honey, and there are several kinds." Lin Yuanwu said excitedly.

Hearing Lin Yuanwu's words, Lin Qing also looked towards the shop and indeed saw spirit honey being sold inside.

Lin Yuanwu looked at Lin Qing, and Lin Qing smiled, knowing what he was thinking. Since giving the Two-Headed Bear to Lin Yuanwu, he had taken extremely good care of it, even more so than Lin Qing. Seeing the spirit honey, he must be thinking of buying some for the Two-Headed Bear.

"Go ahead, you can buy more." Lin Qing said. He was happy that Lin Yuanwu cared so much about the Two-Headed Bear.

With Lin Qing's permission, Lin Yuanwu bought quite a few things in the shop, including several types of honey, probably to change the taste for the Two-Headed Bear.

After finishing their purchases and returning to Lin Qing, who had not entered the shop, Lin Yuanwu took out something else.

"Master, when I was buying the spirit honey, I saw several types of spirit tea being sold there, so I bought some to give to you."

Lin Yuanwu also knew that Lin Qing liked to drink tea when he had nothing to do. Taking this opportunity, he showed his filial respect to Lin Qing by offering him a cup of spiritual tea. Naturally, Lin Qing was happy. This child could think of him, and he was more than willing to accept it.

Taking the spiritual tea, Lin Qing nodded and accepted it.

Then, because of this spiritual tea, Lin Qing had an idea. When passing by a spiritual seed shop, he bought many exotic seeds, including spiritual herbs and flowers.

Xiaowei at home loved to cultivate various spiritual plants. Bringing these back would make her happy for quite some time and enrich the family's heritage.

Strolling around, Lin Qing and Lin Yuanwu visited many shops. This Baibi Fang gave Lin Qing a feeling of great gain.

As for the purpose of this outing, after obtaining that talisman, Lin Qing's heart became much calmer. Just this talisman alone was already extraordinary. He wasn't greedy to the point of wanting more.

In his view, it wasn't urgent to have a talisman after condensing the Gold Core. It didn't necessarily have to be obtained during this trip.

After visiting the shops, Lin Qing and Lin Yuanwu stayed at an inn. The auction would take place tomorrow, so they rested for the day.

This inn was not conspicuous in Baibi Fang. After Lin Qing and Lin Yuanwu settled in, the innkeeper, a cultivator in the early stage of Foundation Building, was extremely polite. He instructed the waiters to serve tea and water, busying himself for a while, which annoyed Lin Qing and Lin Yuanwu.

This was also the reason why he didn't mention his cultivation level reaching the Purple Mansion. Having a higher cultivation level would earn him more respect, but too much respect wasn't necessarily a good thing. It was fine as it was now, although it was a bit troublesome, he could accept it.

To be honest, if he mentioned his cultivation level reaching the Purple Mansion, Lin Qing estimated that the Purple Mansion cultivators in Baibi Fang would come looking for him. He didn't want to provoke so many people, even if it was well-intentioned. Lin Qing knew very well that with his high cultivation level, he was invincible below the Gold Core stage. With the talisman, he could even resist one or two Gold Core cultivators. But keeping a low profile was always beneficial.

On the second day, the auction officially began. Lin Qing had already obtained the invitation letter through the innkeeper's hand.

This auction was only for Foundation Building cultivators and above, and an invitation was required. Lin Qing spent some spirit stones and managed to obtain one smoothly.

Then, he entered the auction. The building was only about ten zhang in size, not accommodating many people. But considering that only Foundation Building cultivators could participate, it was enough.

Afterward, the auction began. Over a hundred Foundation Building cultivators of various levels arrived, with the majority being in the early and middle stages of Foundation Building. Lin Qing's complete Foundation Building stage attracted a lot of attention. After all, this was just one step away from the Purple Mansion. Although there were many Purple Mansions in the Chu Kingdom, it was still extremely difficult for ordinary Foundation Building cultivators to become one.

However, what surprised Lin Qing was that he had misunderstood. This auction was not like an auction at all, but more like a trading fair among Foundation Building cultivators.

When most of the people arrived, cultivators took the initiative to go on stage and introduce the knife-shaped object in their hands, saying, "Fellow Daoists, I have a set of second-grade middle-tier spiritual weapons, the Flame Blades. This set consists of seven blades that, when used together, have tremendous power. If it weren't for material restrictions, this set of spiritual weapons would be at least second-grade top-tier. Although it is currently second-grade middle-tier, as long as it is used properly, it is still not inferior to second-grade top-tier. If any Fellow Daoist is interested, I can exchange it for spirit stones or monster materials."

After this cultivator in the middle stage of Foundation Building finished speaking, many cultivators below showed interest.

Lin Qing also nodded. This set of Flame Blades was considered a rare gem among second-grade middle-tier spiritual weapons. If used properly, it was indeed not inferior to second-grade top-tier. Looking at the cultivators around him, it was no wonder they all had fiery eyes.
