Immortal Cultivation: Starting from Improving Spiritual Root Qualification

Zhou Xun stepped through the entrance and his eyes suddenly opened up.

A simple square covering an area of ​​more than a hundred feet appeared in front of us. It was called a square, but it was actually a slightly flat platform.

There are still exposed soil in many places on the ground. I think it was built not long ago.

In the center of the square, there is a simple wooden platform more than one foot high. It is empty and there is not a single person on it.

From the stage to the edge of the square, there were many stalls of various sizes. Sitting behind the stalls was a monk, who must have been the stall owner.

At this time, many monks had come to the square and gathered around various stalls to choose.

Coincidentally, the monks here either wore cloaks to cover their figures, or wore masks so that their faces could not be seen clearly.

The same goes for Zhou Xun, who is wearing a dark cloak that wraps his entire body in it.

"Welcome in, Chenghui is a spiritual essence!" At this time, a cold voice sounded in Zhou Xun's ears.

It turned out that there were two guards standing on each side of the entrance, and the voice just now was made by their leader.

Zhou Xun did not hesitate, and decisively took out a spirit essence, handed it to the guard, and then strode towards the stall in the square.

"Fellow Taoist, take a look at the fine talismans. There are fireball talismans, ice thorn talismans, and quicksand talismans!" Seeing Zhou Xun walking by, a stall owner with a monkey mask on his face greeted Zhou Xun.

"How to sell it?"

Zhou Xun knelt down after hearing this, picked up a fireball talisman, and tasted it carefully.

"Fireball Talisman, Ice Thorn Talisman, all five in one spirit stone!" Seeing Zhou Xun asking about the price, the stall owner became even more enthusiastic.

"It's indeed much cheaper than Hongyefang!" Zhou Xun nodded secretly.

If you are in Hongyefang, one spirit stone can buy up to four lands.

Zhou Xun then visited a few more stalls, and the goods at each stall were at least 20% cheaper than those in Hongyefang.

Some stalls are even 30% or even 40% cheaper.

However, such treasures often still have residual blood stains, allowing Zhou Xun to know where they came from at a glance.

It must be owned by some unlucky monk.

Looking at the stall owner behind the stall, two words "Jie Xiu" appeared in Zhou Xun's mind!

Then he didn't wait any longer.

It is said that many tribulation cultivators have practiced special tracking spells, allowing people to fall prey to them without even realizing it.

Zhou Xun was cautious and naturally left quickly.

After going around all the stalls, Zhou Xun came across many interesting treasures.

However, he was short of money, so the only spiritual stone he had was to be auctioned off.

Otherwise, those few spirit stones would be missing during the auction, and I would regret it to death.

After all, cheap second-level elixirs like Ningyin Grass are rare.

After staying for about two hours, the auction finally started.

Only three drums were heard, and a dozen figures in cloaks flew up from behind the high platform.

"Welcome to all of you to participate in this conference. I am one of the organizers of this conference!" A man with an expression on his face stood up and bowed to everyone around him.

Although the words were polite, his cultivation in the late stage of Qi training did not restrain himself at all.

I think it's to scare people with bad intentions.

After all, black market transactions hide filth and evil, and are a mixed bag of good and bad.

"And this auction will be hosted by me!"

"As for the rules of the auction, there is only one, which is that the highest bidder wins. Once the Taoist friend wins the bid, he can immediately go to the room under the stage for delivery."

As he spoke, he pointed his hand to the left side of the table.

A few simple houses stood there.

"Some Taoist friends must have gotten the news in advance about this auction. Whether it's pills that break through the bottleneck, or high-quality magic weapons, or rare talismans, they are all available!"

"Okay, without further ado, let's go straight to the treasure."

Then he raised his voice and ordered loudly:

"Bring up all the treasures!"

After a while, I saw two giant men, carrying a half-person-high treasure box with both hands, and gently put it down next to the middle-aged man.

The middle-aged man waved his hand, and the treasure chest opened automatically.

Then he picked up a gear-shaped treasure from inside:

"The first treasure, the Cold Moon Wheel"

"Mid-grade attack weapon!"

"Using dark iron as the main material, and adding Tianjing Star Sand. It is refined by the weapon training master Jin Hongzi. When it is activated, the moon wheel spins, and it is sharp enough to break armor. It is the nemesis of defensive magic weapons!"

"The base price is twenty-one spiritual stones, and each increase in price must not be less than one spiritual stone!"

The first item on the lot is a medium-grade magical artifact.

Let everyone's emotions rise.

As the saying goes, to get a head start, this is what the organizers had in mind.

Zhou Xun was quite jealous as he looked at it. Although the Han Yue Lun was a bit ugly, almost like a large gear, its power was indeed impressive and it was a good treasure.

It's a pity that I can't buy it. After all, my real purpose is to get the second-level elixir.

"Twenty-two spiritual stones!"

As soon as he finished speaking, a monk couldn't wait to bid.

"Twenty-three!"

The bids came and went.

This Hanyue Wheel has armor-breaking effects, is extremely rare among attack weapons, and can be called a fine product.

"I'm offering 30 spirit stones, and I hope all fellow Taoists will give me some face!"

At this time, an old voice sounded.

What followed was a sudden burst of energy from the ninth level of Qi training.

Everyone was shocked.

"Nine levels of Qi training!"

He would be a big shot in Hongyefang!

I don’t know who concealed their identity.

The middle-aged host on the stage frowned slightly when he heard this, and slightly arched his hands towards the person behind him.

At this time, one of the monks sitting behind him stood up.

"The auction items are for the highest bidder, and no one is allowed to destroy them!"

The voice was extremely majestic, and the coercion in his tone silenced the entire square.

"Foundation-building monk!"

Zhou Xun's heart trembled.

Definitely a monk in the foundation building stage!

This kind of pressure alone makes it difficult to breathe. Only foundation-building monks can do this.

It seems that this so-called black market is not that simple.

Being able to invite the foundation-building monks must be closely related to the four major families of Hongyefang.

"Four major forces and four major families!"

"Yes, I think these four major forces are the spokesmen supported by the four major families of Hongyefang!"

Zhou Xun figured out the mystery in an instant.

It seems that behind the black market, there are still four major families.

Just as he was thinking about it, the old voice came out again, but it became a little panicked.

"This is junior Meng Lang. I am willing to pay a hundred spiritual stones to purchase this thing!"

"Huh, I won't do it next time!" The voice just finished on the stage.

The old bidder groaned and spat out a mouthful of blood.

"Thank you, senior, for showing mercy!"

Soon, this middle-grade magic weapon was bought by the old man for 100 spiritual stones.

"The second lot is ten bottles of Qi-enhancing Dan, a type of elixir that strengthens the foundation and cultivates vitality."

As he spoke, the middle-aged host waved his hand, and five bottles of elixirs flew out of the storage bag and landed on the table next to him.

"Everyone knows that the Qi-inducing pill can assist cultivation and save several months of time. It also has the effect of breaking through realms, making it a rare treasure pill."

"A bottle of Rong Dan contains ten pills. The starting price is three spirit stones, and each increase in price must not be less than ten spirit stones!"

"Three spiritual stones and ten spiritual essences!"

"Three spiritual stones and twenty spiritual essences"

Bids came and went.

Soon the elixir was bought by a monk who offered three spiritual stones and eighty spiritual essences.

"the second one"

"Third item"

One treasure after another was bought in the auction, and finally the purpose of Zhou Xun's trip was reached.

"The twenty-third item, the second-level elixir Condensing Yin Grass, starting price is 40 spirit stones!"
