I Built A Family Of Immortal Cultivators

Chapter 421: Breaking the City with Skill

As Lin Qing spoke, the Patriarch of the Chen family would occasionally ponder, smile, relax, and look at Lin Qing with surprise.

Three days later, with the help of another Nascent Soul cultivator invited by the Patriarch of the Chen family, the Huang family's main city was breached.

As for the restrictions that were previously able to withstand four or five Nascent Soul cultivators, they were easily resolved by the Patriarch of the Chen family, without any resistance from the Huang family.

After the main city was breached, the members of the Huang family scattered like birds and beasts, while the Chen family took control of the main city and the Purple Mansion Gold Core cultivators. The others couldn't make much of a fuss.

What is unknown to others is that after the city was breached, a Gold Core cultivator entered the Huang family's library for a moment and then flew away.

And disappeared without a trace.

This cultivator was, of course, Lin Qing. After helping the Chen family break the restrictions of the Huang family, the Patriarch of the Chen family kept his promise and accompanied him to the Huang family's library.

Afterwards, Lin Qing successfully found the Ice Soul Immortal Technique he had been longing for on the top floor of the library.

As he expected, this Ice Soul Immortal Technique was not only extremely suitable for him, but the cultivation technique could even be practiced up to the later stage of Soul Formation, making it a remarkable technique in the entire cultivation world.

At this moment, Lin Qing was filled with indescribable joy upon obtaining this technique.

After experiencing the extremely dangerous encounter at the Tongling Mountain, his luck seemed to have turned for the better. He easily obtained this technique, which was beyond his expectations.

With this technique, it meant that he would no longer have to worry about cultivation techniques in the future.

As for the two goals he had when coming to Zhongzhou, the treasure that increases the chance of Nascent Soul formation and the cultivation technique, he had now obtained both. Lin Qing was somewhat unsatisfied. Although the Three Yang Water was good, it could only increase the chance by ten percent. Even though he had two of them, the cumulative effect was only average. He also had to consider Ruyue at home, so Lin Qing wanted to see if he could find some other treasures that could help him break through to Nascent Soul.

If he were to return now, it would be too hasty.

So after leaving the Huang family's main city, Lin Qing began to search in the various markets of Guchuan County, hoping to find other treasures.

However, treasures that increase the chance of breaking through to Nascent Soul were extremely rare. Half a year had passed, and Lin Qing had not gained much. But he didn't mind. There were thirty-six counties in Zhongzhou, and he could search them one by one. Surely there wouldn't be no clues at all.

Moreover, he hadn't even been to the most powerful and prosperous Dong County yet.

During this period, he had also learned quite a bit about Dong County. Dong County was located at the core of Zhongzhou. It was said that wherever one entered in Dong County, the spiritual energy was equivalent to a lower-grade second-order spiritual vein. Not only were there fourth-order spiritual veins scattered throughout Dong County, but fifth-order spiritual veins were also not uncommon. In the central city of Dong County, there was even a unique sixth-order spiritual vein in the cultivation world, which brought many benefits to Soul Formation cultivators. It was also rumored that there were Soul Formation cultivators stationed in the central city.

Lin Qing had now reached the outskirts of Guchuan County and was about to enter Dong County.

Of course, don't think that Guchuan County is also at the core of Zhongzhou just because it borders Dong County. The reason why Guchuan County borders Dong County is because Dong County is too large, occupying a large area at the center of Zhongzhou, bordering twelve counties out of the thirty-six counties in Zhongzhou. Its scale can be seen as extraordinary.

And now, Lin Qing was sitting in the East Auction House in Donglai District, which was bustling with people due to its proximity to Dong County. He was not very interested in the auction below.

Instead, the Purple Jade Peach he took out unexpectedly became the highlight of the auction in Donglai District.

In the past six months, although Lin Qing hasn't found any treasures that could help him break through, he has encountered many other treasures and elixirs unique to the Central State. Lin Qing has bought quite a few of them, but as a result, he doesn't have many spirit stones left.

This time, participating in the Eastern Auction, Lin Qing had an idea. He had the purple jade peach he brought from home auctioned by the Eastern Auction House in exchange for spirit stones. Unexpectedly, this purple jade peach turned out to be considered a treasure in the Central State.

However, Lin Qing can also understand that in the Central State, not to mention anything else, there are more treasures than in other states, and the same goes for life-extending treasures.

But the Central State is really too big, and there are too many cultivators. No matter how many treasures there are, they are not enough to go around, especially treasures that extend life. This is in demand for any cultivator, so they are even more scarce.

At this moment, all the items in front have been auctioned off. The white-haired old man on the auction stage, whose cultivation is in the Purple Mansion, smiled and looked at the tray in the hands of the maid beside him, which was covered with a red cloth.

"Fellow Daoists, please take a look. This item was entrusted to our auction house by a senior. It is a spirit peach that can extend life by twenty years. Its efficacy has been verified, and the starting price is 200,000 spirit stones!"

As soon as these words were heard, many cultivators at the auction widened their eyes and became alert.

Another cultivator immediately bid, "250,000 spirit stones."

Once someone bid, others also rushed to bid, "300,000."

"350,000."

For a while, it became lively, and the entire dull auction was ignited by this purple jade peach.

Even the white-haired old man who presided over the auction couldn't help but be tempted by the purple jade peach, but he knew that he didn't have enough spirit stones, so he could only look at it with envy.

Before long, this purple jade peach was auctioned off for nearly a million spirit stones. Lin Qing nodded in satisfaction.

He brought three purple jade peaches on this trip, so it seems that he doesn't have to worry about spirit stones in the future. The Central State is indeed the Central State, and the wealth of each cultivator is considerable.

Lin Qing wasn't interested in the remaining few items. After the auction ended, he went to the backstage to collect his spirit stones.

The Eastern Auction House usually charges a 10% commission, but for treasures like this, they only take half, so Lin Qing didn't lose out.

"Senior, if you have any treasures in the future, you can entrust them to our Eastern Auction House for auction. We will definitely satisfy you," the old man who presided over the auction said to Lin Qing.

Lin Qing nodded without saying a word and walked out.

As for what he was thinking, only heaven knows.

"Who are you?" Lin Qing said coldly.

Just as he walked out of the Eastern Auction House, he encountered a Gold Core stage cultivator blocking his way. Lin Qing was unhappy, thinking that he was being targeted because of the purple jade peach, which is why he spoke like that.

"Fellow Daoist, please don't be offended. I actually have good news for Fellow Daoist." This Gold Core stage cultivator was not annoyed at all, but became even more enthusiastic.

"Good news? Heh, I've encountered quite a few good news myself, but most of them have hidden motives. Fellow Daoist, go find someone else." Lin Qing didn't want to listen to him continue.

"Fellow Daoist, Fellow Daoist, don't be in such a hurry to leave. I've actually been waiting outside the auction house, specifically looking for someone with cultivation like Fellow Daoist. I know it's a bit rushed, but please don't be offended, I really have no ulterior motives."
