Mortal Alchemy

Chen Ping followed the plump cultivator to a quiet private room.

Inside sat two female cultivators, one dressed in a purple dress, with a glamorous and alluring appearance, full of seductive charm.

The other wore a white dress, with delicate features and a temperament as pure as snow.

After everyone sat down, the plump cultivator said with a smile, "Let's team up to participate in the black market auction, so we can take care of each other. My name is Gao Yuzhuo."

Chen Ping cupped his hands and said, "My name is Tang Sheng."

The purple-skirted female cultivator smiled charmingly and winked at the two of them: "My name is Liu Ziyan."

The white-skirted female cultivator said, "My name is Zhou Ying."

"A pleasure to meet you all."

After a brief exchange of greetings, the purple-skirted female cultivator said, "Fellow Daoists, since we are out and about, and we're teaming up to keep warm, how about we make a Heart Demon Oath?"

Including Chen Ping, the three of them had flickering eyes, somewhat tempted.

Everyone was unfamiliar with each other, and teaming up so rashly was a last resort, but making a Heart Demon Oath would make things much safer.

Gao Yuzhuo clapped his hands and laughed: "This is a great idea. I, Gao Yuzhuo, make a great Heart Demon Oath that I will not do anything detrimental to my fellow Daoists during this black market auction."

Chen Ping also followed suit and made a Heart Demon Oath.

Even though he used a fake name, after making the Heart Demon Oath, there was still a kind of invisible force binding him.

This surprised Chen Ping at the power of the Heart Demon Oath, as expected of the most powerful contract in the cultivation world throughout the ages.

The two female cultivators also made Heart Demon Oaths.

In this way, the atmosphere suddenly eased a lot, becoming lively, and everyone talked and laughed.

Gao Yuzhuo said, "Fellow Daoists, we met by chance and are destined to meet. Let me treat you to a meal."

He called for a table of good wine and food.

Moving to the square table, everyone sat in their respective positions.

With the delicious food on the table and the spiritual wine to liven things up, the atmosphere among them became heated and familiar all at once.

Liu Ziyan was even more charming and bold in her behavior: "Daoist Tang, I'll toast you a cup."

Under the table, Chen Ping felt a soft, white foot gently touch his calf.

Chen Ping raised an eyebrow, his heart tightening: "This Liu Ziyan, could she be a cultivator from the Myriad Desire Pavilion?"

From the beginning of the meal, this Liu Ziyan had been subtly using charm techniques to seduce Chen Ping and Gao Yuzhuo.

After the incident with Mu Xingling, Chen Ping's resistance to charm techniques had greatly increased.

They had already made a Heart Demon Oath, yet this Liu Ziyan was still acting like this, what was her plan?

Was she planning to practice dual cultivation to replenish her yin essence, or what?

No matter what her plan was, Chen Ping remained unmoved, acting as if he didn't know anything.

Seeing that Chen Ping didn't respond, Liu Ziyan leaned towards Gao Yuzhuo's plump body with a smile.

"Daoist Gao, how about having a drink with me?"

This behavior made Gao Yuzhuo somewhat lose himself, and he said with a chuckle:

"Okay, okay."

Zhou Ying, who was on the side, frowned slightly at this scene, but said nothing.

Cultivators would do anything for resources and benefits, so it wasn't surprising.

Chen Ping spoke at the dinner table:

"This is my first time participating in this black market auction, I don't know what kind of things are mainly sold at this black market and auction."

Gao Yuzhuo chuckled and explained:

"I've been there several times. Daoist Tang, this black market mainly sells things controlled by the Eastern Xuan Sect, as well as good things that the Eastern Region cultivation world doesn't have."

"The auction, on the other hand, has some relatively rare things, as well as expensive things."

"Daoist Tang, since this is your first time going, you can learn a lot."

Chen Ping said with a smile: "I should learn a lot."

Zhou Ying said: "The black market auction is only open for seven days each year, and this Domain Sky Flying Boat can also return to the jurisdiction of the Eastern Xuan Sect, Daoist Tang, don't miss it when the time comes."

Chen Ping nodded:

"Thank you for the reminder, Fairy Zhou."

In the midst of their conversation, a violent vibration came, and after a moment, they saw the huge ship leave the lake and slowly take off.

After eating and drinking their fill, the group went to the four rooms in the private room to rest.

Chen Ping sat cross-legged, entered the room, and his consciousness entered the inheritance hall.

The huge first floor of the palace was no longer covered in mist and was completely open to Chen Ping.

Chen Ping stood in the palace, looking at the walls and the passage to the second palace.

"The pill formulas for first-order pills are almost all here, but the materials are hard to find."

"The old ancestor also left behind the only second-order pill, the Foundation Establishment Pill, on this floor."

"Even if I collect the materials for the Foundation Establishment Pill, but without a second-order pill furnace and spiritual fire, the failure rate will definitely be very high."

"If I want to refine the Foundation Establishment Pill, I better master a second-order pill furnace or second-order spiritual fire in advance..."

The four major sects of the Eastern Region cultivation world control vast territories and monopolize high-level pills. Chen Ping naturally couldn't let outsiders know about his preparations for the Foundation Establishment Pill.

Gathering the materials for the Foundation Establishment Pill was already difficult, and refining it himself would be even more difficult.

It was truly more difficult for ordinary people to establish their foundation than ascending to heaven.

The passage to the second floor of the palace was shrouded in mist, and Chen Ping couldn't enter.

Chen Ping sighed helplessly and exited the inheritance hall.

"Knock knock!"

A knock sounded on the door.

"Who is it?" Chen Ping asked vigilantly.

A charming female cultivator's voice sounded outside the door: "Daoist, the night is long, would you like me to keep you company?"

Chen Ping looked stunned: "A female cultivator from the Myriad Desire Pavilion?"

He had heard people say that some female cultivators would take the initiative to come to your door, either to replenish their yin essence or to earn spirit stones.

Some married male cultivators couldn't enjoy themselves on weekdays, so in this situation, they could also steal a taste to relieve their cravings.

Chen Ping frowned and replied, "No need."

Then he took out a Yuan Qi Pill, swallowed it, refined it, and practiced silently.

The Domain Sky Flying Boat flew for six days before arriving near the black market auction, and the huge flying boat stopped here.

Chen Ping and others walked out of the rooms, preparing to go to the black market auction.

To Chen Ping and Zhou Ying's surprise, in the past few days, Gao Yuzhuo and Liu Ziyan had hooked up and actually walked out of the same room.

And they had a kind of lewd aura on their bodies, it seemed that they had done things that they shouldn't have done.

Chen Ping heard Zhou Ying whisper a curse: "Dog men and women."

Gao Yuzhuo said:

"The black market auction is four hundred miles away from here and will open tomorrow. Fellow Daoists, we should set off."

In fact, without his reminder, the black market token reacted and would guide them in the direction.

The group summoned their respective flying magic tools and headed to the black market auction together.

On the way, Chen Ping saw many small groups heading to the black market auction together.

Their team looked very ordinary.

After flying for several hours, the group saw the huge black market.

It was at least several times the size of White Sand Square City.

They took out their tokens to verify their identities and entered the black market.

The group breathed a sigh of relief.

Here, the group would part ways and each go to find what they needed.

Gao Yuzhuo put his arm around Liu Ziyan and said to Chen Ping and Zhou Ying with a smile:

"Well then, two fellow Daoists, we will part ways here."

The group looked at each other and dispersed into the black market.
