Strange mountains and rivers

Gou Yiwei's words immediately brought back Chen Huaisheng's memories.

At that time, the Chonghua faction was forced to evacuate Langling and move north to Hebei. One of the important factors was that Baishimen's strength had greatly increased and it had an overwhelming advantage over the Chonghua faction.

Even if Shang Jiuling and Zhu Fengbi had already entered Dengzi Mansion at that time and caught Baishimen by surprise, under normal circumstances the strength of Baishimen would not be enough to break through the Chonghua Sect's mountain-protecting formation.

However, Baishimen did not hesitate to recruit Zhang Taiquan, a notorious loose cultivator from Wu and Yue, to join, which suddenly reversed the situation, thus making the Zifu of the Chonghua Sect outnumber Baishimen at a ratio of one to two.

Under this situation, even if the Chonghua faction could rely on the mountain protection formation of Panshan Langshan to compete, it would be difficult to sustain. In the end, Shang Jiuling had to make the decision to evacuate Langling and give up Panshan Langshan.

This is probably the biggest setback that the Chonghua Sect has suffered since its establishment. It also caused the Chonghua Sect to lose most of its influence in the Da Zhao cultivation world, and it can even be said to be in a desperate situation.

If the Chonghua faction had not responded properly at that time, and the turbulent situation in Hebei at that time had happened to give the Chonghua faction an opportunity, I am afraid that the Chonghua faction might have collapsed.

This Zhang Taiquan is one of the important chess pieces and weights, playing a key role.

Chen Huaisheng had never met Zhang Taiquan, but Gou Yiwei had been traveling abroad all year round, and Wu Yue had been there many times, so he was no stranger to Zhang Taiquan. After that battle, he was even more impressed with Zhang Taiquan.

Zhang Taiquan is not here to sell Lingbao, but to purchase Lingbao in large quantities.

"Everyone, there is no need for me to say more. The knowledgeable guests all understand what this is. It is self-evident that the supreme quality among earth-based spiritual treasures is very useful in improving the earth-power spiritual energy of a place. So, , this is one of the key products of our Xiayuan Festival auction. The starting price is three thousand spiritual sands! Please bid, and the price will be increased by three hundred spiritual sands for each bid!”

The bidding price alone has suddenly increased six times, which shows how valuable this item is.

Chen Huaisheng had also heard about the Earth Origin Stone Soul, but when he saw a ball of black mud placed on the bidding platform, surrounded by pearlescent light, there were lingering black auras like clouds, and he was immediately attracted. The eyes of many people.

"How is the Earth Origin Stone Soul better than the Xuanhuang Divine Soil?" Chen Huaisheng couldn't help but ask.

"They are all earth-based spiritual treasures, but the Xuanhuang Divine Soil is mainly used to increase the earth's spiritual energy for planting. It is of great benefit to the cultivation of spiritual plants, but has a mediocre effect on other things. The Earth Element Stone Soul is different. It is all-round and has good effects on the entire world. The spiritual energy of the place has been improved in all aspects, that is to say, the spiritual energy of the place of cultivation has also increased. More importantly, its coverage area is much larger than the ordinary black and yellow divine soil..."

Even though Gou Yiwei was well-informed, he couldn't help but feel horrified, "Has anyone come up with this thing for sale? This is almost a treasure. If we can get the three thousand spiritual sand, we will make a lot of money." , but it’s obviously impossible. Without six thousand spiritual sand, we probably wouldn’t be able to get it..."

"So expensive?!" Chen Huaisheng asked in surprise: "More than 200,000 spirit stones can buy this thing?"

"This thing is of great significance to a small sect and a small sect. It cannot be overstated as a treasure." Gou Yiwei shook his head, "It's different."

Chen Huaisheng was more concerned about Zhang Taiquan, who had already spent 200,000 spirit stones in the previous auctions.

As the bidding began, the bids also increased step by step. The bid for the Earth Origin Stone Soul quickly increased to 5,500 spiritual sands, and then exceeded 6,000 spiritual sands.

The final bidding was between Zhang Taiquan and another monk. In the end, Zhang Taiquan's opponent won the Earth Elemental Stone Soul with 6,500 spiritual sand.

Chen Huaisheng and Gou Yiwei were both a little surprised. They originally thought that Zhang Taiquan was determined to win the Earth Elemental Stone Soul, but they didn't expect that they finally backed down.

"Hey, Uncle Gou, why did you let go of this piece of Taiquan again? Didn't you say that he looks like a boy and has an arrogant personality?" Chen Huaisheng asked in surprise.

"Well, I'm also surprised. It doesn't suit Zhang Taiquan's temperament. Twenty years ago, he was unscrupulous and committed all kinds of evil in Wuyue. Did he change his temper after entering Baishimen?" Gou Yiwei pouted, as if he had something to say. Thought: "It's easy to change a country, but it's hard to change one's nature. It's not like that."

Chen Huaisheng was observing and thinking, "If this earth element stone soul is really useful to Bai Shimen or Zhang Taiquan, he should continue to persevere, and give up if it makes no sense..."

"It's not a good idea. After all, the price of 6,500 spiritual sand is high enough. My initial judgment is that it is reasonable not to exceed 8,000. If it exceeds 6,000, it is worth considering. It depends on the needs of each family." Gou Yiwei still judged fairly.

"Uncle Gou, what do you think we should do?" Chen Huaisheng asked.

"I should ask you this, or maybe I need to see how many people came from Zhang Taiquan, and whether there are others..." Gou Yiwei muttered: "At least he is in the middle realm of soul condensation, and his strength is not weak anymore. And with his original style, his magic combat power may be slightly higher..."

Gou Yiwei glanced at Bijiao Yuanjun who was also observing carefully.

Bijiao Yuanjun frowned and said in a low voice, "If it's just him, I'm sure to deal with him."

The implication is that if there are other people, it's hard to be sure.

If Zhang Taiquan's magic combat power is slightly higher than his revealed spiritual realm strength, it means that he has the strength to reach the upper realm of soul condensation or even the first realm of moistening soul. There is still a slight gap compared to the combat power of Bijiao Yuanjun, but to say it is worse Many of them are not objective.

What is uncertain now is whether there are others with considerable strength among Zhang Taiquan.

According to the information obtained, the number of real people from the Zifu in Baishimen has expanded to nine. If Zhang Taiquan comes to purchase spiritual treasures on behalf of Baishimen, will other real people from the Zifu follow? If so, it will be a bit tricky.

"Uncle Gou, what do you say?" Chen Huaisheng rubbed his chin with a faint look, "This guy has a spiritual treasure worth two hundred thousand spiritual stones. Well, he should have at least six thousand spiritual sand in his hands, but he is really fat. Sheep."

"It's hard to say." Gou Yiwei was also a little moved. "Looking at Zhang Taiquan, there are only two foundation-building monks around him. Is this guy so confident that no one dares to touch him?"

"Didn't you say that the safety in Yuantouwu is guaranteed by the alliance?" Chen Huaisheng asked back: "Besides, he has the strength of the Soul Condensation Realm. Ordinary monks can't touch him. If he wants to escape, I'm afraid Even the Runpo Realm monks may not be able to stop it, right?"

"Leaving Yuantouwu? If one can't stop him, how will he deal with two more Zifus? Of course, this possibility seems a bit small, it's hard to say." Gou Yiwei also asked back: "Yijun is some distance away from here. How did they get here, Fei Cha? But Fei Cha cannot cross the Yellow River in Hebei. It is possible to borrow Fei Cha in Hebei, but can Baishimen borrow Fei Cha in Hebei? "

Renting a flying helicopter is relatively common in Da Zhao, but ordinary flying flying boats fly low and are easily disturbed and attacked, such as monsters or strong winds, while high-level flying flying boats consume a huge amount of spirit stones, are expensive to rent, and are high-end You can’t rent Fei Cha either.

There are basically no flying boats for rent here in Hebei, especially since there are many monsters in the sky in Hebei and the air flow is turbulent. The practicality of flying boats is much worse than that in Da Zhao. Many sects basically do not buy flying boats unless they are like Tianzhao. He Sect, Yuelu Sect, Fengyi Sect, as well as large sects such as Changchun Dao and Ning Family.

However, Bijiao Yuanjun's eyes were fixed on the monk who took the Earth Yuan Stone Soul: "Why don't you choose to buy the Earth Yuan Stone Soul as your target? Just one Earth Yuan Stone Soul is worth more than 200,000 spirit stones. It's much simpler. ”

"Senior Long, that guy is a Beirong martial arts cultivator. You can see clearly." Gou Yiwei was stunned, "It should be equivalent to the strength of Zifu. In Youzhou, the power of the Beirong people is stronger than that of us in Yanzhou. He definitely didn't come alone, there were always two or three people. Look at the more than a hundred people here, there are at least one or twenty Beirong martial arts cultivators..."

Gou Yiwei's words did not make Bijiao Yuanjun change his attitude: "Aren't the Beirong people better? If they are not from our clan, their hearts must be different..."

Chen Huaisheng and Gou Yiwei were both numb. Uh, isn't it a bit awkward for you to say this? The Beirong people are not from our clan, but you are a foreign cultivator...

Even if you have transformed into enlightenment, it seems inappropriate to directly regard yourself as a Da Zhao cultivator and regard Beirong martial cultivator as an alien, right?

Of course, if you have mastered the golden elixir and the entire Tao body has been spiritually integrated, then it will basically be no different from human cultivation. There seems to be nothing wrong with you saying that, but you haven't reached that stage yet.

Besides, Beirong martial arts cultivators can also cultivate to the golden elixir realm. How can I say this?

Both Chen Huaisheng and Gou Yiwei were a little embarrassed, but Chen Huaisheng reacted quickly and immediately dropped the topic: "Brother Long, do you think this Beirong man can be targeted? But we want to get the spiritual sand. …”

"At the worst, we can just rob it and sell it again. Didn't Yuantouwu guarantee that the privacy will not be leaked? Just wait until next month for the monthly auction to sell it." Bijiao Yuanjun said confidently: "Otherwise, just get it directly to Bianjing Go sell it, it’s cheaper.”

Gou Yiwei was also a little moved.

Although the Baishimen where Zhang Taiquan was located was an enemy, he estimated that Zhang Taiquan would probably not come alone. There might be strong men at the Zifu level following him, and there would be certain risks in dealing with them.

The strength of this Beirong martial arts cultivator should be around the first level of Zifu Yunxui. Even if he has one or two helpers, he will be easier to deal with than Zhang Taiquan. Of course, it will also depend on the situation.

He hasn't been to Youzhou for a few years, and he only came here a few times in the two years he came to Hebei. On the contrary, he used to come here often when he was in Yijun. Many things have changed so much now that he is not sure, so Only then did I feel the risk was high.

As the auction came to an end, Chen Huaisheng withdrew his bid for purple jade dates and thousand-year-old lotus seeds, but he needed to pay some fees.

Now the only targets before the three of them are Zhang Taiquan and the Beirong martial arts cultivator. How to choose?
