Longevity Family: Let Her Live At The Beginning, Let Her Live

When Zhang Yin first entered, many people dared not trouble her and ended up being defeated.

Now, fifteen years have passed and Zhang Yin has reached the fourth level of Core Formation.

This time, Zhang Youming naturally cannot be underestimated, and everyone is guessing what skills he possesses.

Zhang Youming's arrival at the academy caused a stir, but it was soon overshadowed by the new students' competitions.

Zhang Youming was directly accepted as a disciple by Zhang Yin's teacher, who is a cultivator at the early stage of Soul Formation.

Apart from the dean, there are only three teachers at the Soul Formation level in the entire academy, showing how highly they value the Zhang siblings.

Outside the academy, the imperial city is also bustling.

Today, there are more Soul Formation cultivators in the imperial city than usual.

Some even saw the vice leader of the Heavenly Demon Temple here.

This is because half a month ago, there was news from the Myriad Treasures Chamber of Commerce that there would be an auction of Soul Refining Pills during the academy's enrollment period.

These are top-grade pills among the fifth-grade pills.

When Zhang Ran took this pill years ago, his spiritual soul soared, allowing him to smoothly reach the sixth level of Nascent Soul. It can be imagined how precious it is.

From the breakthrough to Nascent Soul, there is a very important requirement for spiritual soul power, and there are very few methods to increase spiritual soul. Those that can provide an increase in spiritual soul at the Soul Formation stage are even more precious.

At this moment, the Myriad Treasures Chamber of Commerce is also overcrowded, while Zhang Ran calmly sits in a private box.

He is here to earn some spirit stones and see if there are any materials for setting up a fifth-grade formation.

Last time, he found a formation diagram of the Nine Purple Heavenly Soul Formation in Elder Sun's storage ring, which can now be used.

Thinking about the three fourth-grade formations in the family, Zhang Ran thought, "Let's see if I can integrate all the formations together in the future."

After reaching the fifth-grade formation, Zhang Ran's progress towards the sixth-grade formation has slowed down significantly.

Just as Zhang Ran was lost in thought, a voice from the system sounded in his mind.

"Congratulations, host, on the birth of a seventh-grade spiritual root offspring."

Zhang Ran looked at the report from home and was surprised to see that it was Yang Huanyu who gave birth to the child. Although Yang Huanyu is still young, he is ultimately a mortal.

To be able to give birth to such a child, it is also thanks to Zhang Ran's current eighth-grade spiritual root cultivation.

"Hey, system, can't you reward me with a better physique? Looking at the child's physique, I envy it. If you reward me with faster cultivation experience, I can also improve faster."

"Host, it's all a matter of probability."

After accepting the experience from this offspring, Zhang Ran's cultivation has subtly increased, and he is now at the stage of advancing from the early stage to the middle stage.

It will definitely take a long time.

As the Myriad Treasures Auction begins, an old man at the early stage of Soul Formation steps onto the stage. He is dressed in a red robe and has a joyful expression on his face.

In the past, it was usually a Core Formation cultivator or occasionally a Nascent Soul cultivator who hosted the auction. Today, there are many Soul Formation cultivators present.

Zhang Ran recognizes this Soul Formation host as the person in charge of the Myriad Treasures Chamber of Commerce in the imperial city. His surname is Liu, and he is called Liu Cai. Zhang Ran still remembers the surprised expression on his face when he handed over the Soul Refining Pills to him.

Originally, Zhang Ran had a casual attitude towards this ninth prince, but now he puts on a smiling face.

Liu Cai glanced at Zhang Ran's private box and made a small gesture that few people noticed.

"Fellow Daoists, I won't waste any more words. Let the auction begin. The first item is a medium-grade spiritual treasure, the Cloud-Stepping Boots," Liu Cai announced loudly, not using too much force but still clearly audible to everyone.

As the first item was presented, there was a buzz of discussion among the audience.

"The first item is already a medium-grade spiritual treasure. It seems like we came at the right time. Besides the Soul Refining Pills, there might be other treasures as well."

Until the sixth item, the materials Zhang Ran needed came out.

Yu Lingjing, this is the material for refining the Nine Purple Heaven Soul Formation.

Zhang Ran immediately decided, "Twenty top-grade spirit stones."

There were naturally people below who raised the price, but there weren't many who directly called out top-grade spirit stones.

Most of them used middle-grade spirit stones, calling out tens of thousands.

"Forty top-grade spirit stones," Zhang Ran called out, and no one else raised the price. This price was already quite expensive, but it was still within the range of this item.

Just as he finished calling out this price, someone shouted, "Fellow Daoist, I remember this item can be used to refine a fifth-order formation or to refine a magic treasure. Fellow Daoist, are you in urgent need of this item because you are a refiner or a formation master?"

"For formation," Zhang Ran said directly.

He didn't think there was anything to hide. Now that he had arrived in Daqian, news of his fifth-order formation mastery and his skills in alchemy and artifact refining would eventually spread. It was better to let people know earlier so that he could receive more cooperation.

As soon as they heard it was for formation, everyone realized that this was a fifth-order formation master. Even some Soul Formation ancestors looked over, guessing which formation master had come here. Fifth-order formation masters in Daqian were well-known, and there weren't many in the entire southern region of Tiannan.

"Fellow Daoist, in that case, could we have a detailed discussion after this auction? I have a request," the voice that had just asked Zhang Ran spoke again.

Zhang Ran looked in the direction of the voice. It was also in a private room, and Zhang Ran's divine sense couldn't penetrate it, so he didn't know who the person was.

"Okay," Zhang Ran replied simply.

There were others present who also showed interest and planned to meet this mysterious person after the auction.

The host, Liu Cai, was stunned. The Ninth Prince was a fifth-order formation master?

After calming down from the shock, he resumed his normal role as the auctioneer.

Later, Zhang Ran also purchased the materials for the Nine Purple Heaven Soul Formation. When he made the purchase, there wasn't much competition, indicating that they knew it was for the formation master.

Many people expressed their desire to make friends.

Zhang Ran responded with a smile to each one.

Finally, it was time to auction the Soul Refining Pill.

Liu Cai announced loudly, "A fifth-order Soul Refining Pill, starting at two hundred top-grade spirit stones."

The bidders were all Soul Formation ancestors, with a few Nascent Soul cultivators helping their leaders.

"Three hundred spirit stones," a young man shouted. He was a Core Formation cultivator, but no one accused him of causing trouble. This person was dressed in luxurious clothes, exuding an aristocratic aura.

"Oh, isn't this the Ninth Prince's beloved grandson, Zhou Chao? He must be buying this to present it to the Ninth Prince."

"Four hundred," an old voice immediately shouted a higher price. It was a Soul Formation ancestor who wasn't sitting in a private room but in a corner. His body was somewhat withered, but his eyes shone brightly.

"It seems like he's the master of the North Cang Sect."

"The North Cang Sect has come all the way from such a distance to Daqian Dynasty."

Zhang Ran hadn't heard of the North Cang Sect since he arrived. It was probably too far away and not a top-tier power. It could only be considered second-rate.

After a round of bidding, the Soul Refining Pill was auctioned off for twelve hundred top-grade spirit stones, ten times the price of a fourth-order pill.

"It's not a loss for a fifth-order pill. I only spent a hundred top-grade spirit stones to refine this pill," Zhang Ran sighed.

For other alchemists, it wouldn't be easy to produce a pill with just one hundred top-grade spirit stones. They would usually need five or six times that amount to produce a pill.

But for Zhang Ran, it was a violent profit.

The auction continued.

When the second Soul Refining Pill was brought out, the entire venue erupted.

Some people sensed that the medicinal power of this pill was no different from the previous one, indicating that they were both refined by the same person.

And this pill was sold directly for fifteen hundred top-grade spirit stones.

Some Soul Formation ancestors who didn't manage to get the pill couldn't sit still.

They asked one after another, "Fellow Daoist Liu, may I know who the alchemist is who produced these two Soul Refining Pills?"
