The full name of the Xiuxian Conference held at Jinhu Hotel in Shanglin City is the Xiuxian Literature Peripheral Enthusiasts Exchange Conference.
Like other large gatherings, this gathering was registered with the imperial court. In addition to the security personnel maintaining order at the convention itself, the Ministry of Security also sent commissioners to supervise it.
Under normal circumstances, this kind of security officer is just going through the motions. As long as there is no big mess in the communication meeting, the dirty things in private will just turn a blind eye.
However, the Sword Immortal incident happened recently, and the superior leaders are still concerned about it. This Immortal Cultivation Conference happened to be in the crosshairs, so Lao Liu, who was transferred from the field, became the security officer for this event.
I also hope to find some clues to find the so-called Sword Immortal's heel.
Lao Liu was able to work as a field officer because he had a face that would be harmless to humans and animals and would not be found immediately if he were thrown into the street.
As soon as he entered the banquet hall and hid in a corner, his sense of presence immediately dropped to zero.
This exchange meeting for cultivating immortals is divided into two areas. In the first half of the entrance, there are dozens of stalls, which are similar to the street stalls outside. What they sell most are consecrated treasures and secrets of cultivating immortals explained by a certain senior...
However, a group of buyers were still talking loudly there, discussing which treasure was better and which secret book could lead to great success.
Not to mention watching it, just listening to it made Lao Liu so embarrassed that he almost got cancer!
Fortunately, Lao Liu had reviewed his lessons before coming here and knew that there were mainly three types of people mixed in at this exchange meeting for cultivating immortals.
One type is called the Immortal Playing Sect, which is mostly composed of children from wealthy families. It is the main source of liquidity in the circle of cultivating immortals. They regard cultivating immortals as a hobby, and they are also taken advantage of and fat sheep in the eyes of others.
The other type is those who set up stalls and organizers of this exchange meeting. They respond to the needs of playing immortals and provide them with various magic weapons and secrets according to their needs. They are known as immortal merchants.
There are also some children from wealthy families among them who saw the huge benefits and got involved, making the situation of this group more and more complicated. After many victims found out that they had been tricked, they would help cover it up in order to recoup their losses.
The last group claims to be a true cultivator and has the smallest number of people in various exchange meetings. They all have the Taoist pride of believing in others but not believing in them. They are also the founders of the principles of the current system of cultivating immortals.
It can be said that the circle of immortal cultivators is now growing among the upper-class disciples, and so many people can be deceived. These practitioners who have not reaped any benefits must have contributed a lot...
Looking back at the information, Lao Liu felt that he must have come here in vain. If the swordsman was really capable, why would he come here?
You know, the information shows that the things in today's exchange meeting... are all fake!
At the same time, the masters invited have also been registered in the bureau, and various so-called magical methods have already been cracked to a great extent.
If it weren't for the complicated interests, they would all have to flee abroad to avoid prison.
The so-called magic swords and magic weapons that are really unearthed... Huh, those are antiques!
They are all staying in museums or some collections!
Just when Lao Liu was silently complaining in his heart, he suddenly noticed that the atmosphere of everyone present had changed, and all their eyes seemed to be looking towards the door?
"That's..." Lao Liu looked over and couldn't help being slightly shocked, and almost screamed.
The handsome young man who attracted everyone's attention as soon as he entered the door. He was dressed in a decent white costume and had a unique temperament...
Lao Liu almost concluded at the first glance that this young man must be related to the sword fairy at the top of Mount Tai.
"Really here?" Lao Liu swallowed his saliva, quickly activated the mini camera on his chest, and at the same time approached Xiao Yu's position.
Jin Yunxuan had been trying to please Qingyun, the sword fairy in his heart, and told Xiao Yu everything his friend had introduced to him.
The more Xiao Yu listened, the weirder he felt. In addition, when he opened his eyes and saw all the guests attending, there was no one who could fight...
Xiao Yu couldn't help but sigh in his heart. Although he had already guessed it, was it really true? In this real world, apart from me, is it difficult to find the extraordinary?
However, it doesn’t matter if there are not or not many extraordinary people, the court, or those upper-level forces, they will have to be more cautious in their treatment of themselves because they don’t understand clearly.
"This fellow Taoist has such a temperament as an immortal."
Xiao Yu was walking and listening when suddenly a white-bearded Taoist priest wearing Taoist robes and looking like an immortal came over with Jin Yunxuan's immortal-cultivating friends.
"Yunxuan, this is Master Liu from Kunlun Mountain, who has obtained the true biography of the immortals in Kunlun Mountain!" the friend said with a proud look on his face.
"Master Liu?" Jin Yunxuan was slightly startled as he thought of this man, whom he had just praised by an expert.
Now it seems that although he does not have the temperament of a master, he does seem to have an air of immortality.
"Fellow Taoist, I am a Jing'an layman who studied under the Kunlun Golden Pill Secret Dharma Sect. I wonder where my little friend is from?" The old Taoist asked Xiao Yu as soon as he came.
He was just looking for trouble, and he planned to remind the newcomers not to think that just because they have a good skin, they can make money in this industry.
"Kunlun Golden Pill?" In the eyes of others, the young man in white frowned slightly and then said with a confused look on his face: "I have never heard of such a sect."
"Besides, back to this layman, I come from the Sword Immortal Sect, and my master's lineage has always been cultivating in Shushan."
Never heard of Kunlun Golden Pill?
The surrounding immortal cultivating enthusiasts were all shocked. This person had never even heard of the famous sect of cultivating immortals. How could he still come to this exchange meeting?
And what was it that he just mentioned?
Sword Immortal Sect?
Are you kidding, where are the sword immortals now?
The reputation of this sect has long been ruined, okay?
"Isn't the Sword Immortal just a liar?" a vendor whispered.
After he entered the industry, he also planned to get some sword fairies to cheat money. After all, if you look at the records in ancient books, the sword fairies could do anything with a flash of golden light and release flying swords. How cool and unrestrained?
He thought it would be easy to sell, right? Unexpectedly, after understanding the market, the vendor discovered that the reputation of Sword Immortal has been bad since the previous dynasty. There were too many scammers and the fools were scared away...
"Sword...Sword Immortal!" The old Taoist also looked at Xiao Yu's transformed Qingyun as if he were looking at a novice. After a long while, he laughed and said in a pretentious manner:
"It turns out that the Sword Immortal Sect has not been born for many years. Fellow Taoist must have just entered the world."
"Yes, I have only been down the mountain for a short time, and I tend to act impulsively. Please forgive me if I offend everyone."
The young man in white nodded slightly and continued: "After all, our sect has been in a closed state since my ancestor's generation. Nowadays, the world has changed, and it is very different from what I know. Please forgive me for being reckless."
The old Taoist smiled and nodded, but his mind was similar to what others were thinking. He felt that this guy was so tough-mouthed that he actually climbed out of the Sword Immortal Gate.
Huh, wait and see how you step down?
The old man pulled Jin Yunxuan and led the two of them out of the first half of the hall and to the dining tables surrounding the stage area of ​​the banquet hall.
"Fellow Taoist, are you coming here to study? Or are you going to buy what you need for cultivation?"
Hearing the old Taoist's question, Xiao Yu glanced at the nearby hall and noticed several cameras covering the whole place in the corner. He smiled lightly and said: "I am seeking the Sword Immortal Tao. I came here this time to see if there are any fellow Taoists."
, the other one really wants to purchase some cultivation necessities."
"I see, but I don't know if you plan to pay for it or exchange it for something?" Upon hearing this, the old man's sneer intensified and he asked.
Xiao Yu said without hesitation: "I am penniless, and the things I cultivate are so precious, so naturally I have to exchange things for things!"
What a routine! When the old man heard this, he felt that he understood the young man's trick to deceive people. He called people to set up the stage, then looked at Xiao Yu and said:
"It just so happens that we are about to hold an exchange meeting for immortality items. Fellow Taoists can come on stage later, take out your items and put forward your exchange conditions."
Having said this, the old Taoist suddenly felt a little unsure when he saw the young man in white nodding his head so quickly.
As a veteran of the organizer, the reason why this veteran took action personally was to capture Jin Yunxuan, the wealthy man next to the boy in white!
The old Taoist would not want to watch such a gold mine being dug away in front of an accident!
Or let him be abducted by a novice in the world of immortality pretending to be a swordsman!
"It should be no problem. The manpower has been arranged. No matter what he does, someone will expose him!" The old man calculated it, but he was still a little worried and started to make arrangements.
Jin Yunxuan did not expect so much. He had great faith in Taoist Master Qingyun. When the Taoist led the people to leave, he asked curiously:
"Taoist Priest, you can actually tell me what you want first, and I will do my best to help!"
"And... Taoist Master, you just said you wanted to give something in exchange. Could it be Feijian?"
"The Green Cicada Sword is my foundation, how can I exchange it?" When the young man in white heard the flying sword and everyone looked at it curiously, he shook his head slightly:
"I also have a few magic weapons and some elixirs that can be exchanged for."
"I'm just worried...as time passes, whether we can still find the materials we need."
"Don't worry, Taoist Master." Jin Yunxuan said quickly: "There are many masters coming to this exchange meeting. They must have a lot of good materials in their hands!"
"Of course!" said my friend who is a cultivator next to me: "Master Liu just now has a room full of heavenly materials and earthly treasures, as well as various consecrated sacred objects. If you can impress the master in exchange for one or two, you will definitely benefit a lot!"
"Seriously!" Jin Yunxuan was excited and thought that if there was a chance, he would contact the master in private to see if there was any chance of getting some heavenly and earthly treasures.
Looking at Jin Yunxuan who was as excited about cultivating immortals as he was before, this friend who cultivated immortals remembered his past for a moment, and then nodded affirmatively.
Soon, a long mahogany table was placed on the stage, a loudspeaker was placed, and lights were turned on.
Another broadcast reminded everyone in the banquet hall that the exchange meeting had officially begun, and practitioners from the Sword Immortal Sect were invited to come to the stage to exchange ideas.
"Humph, look how he made a fool of himself!" My friend who cultivated immortality murmured to himself as he watched the boy in white appear on the stage carefree.
But when the young man in white came behind the wooden table, his eyes suddenly lit up and his temperament suddenly changed, becoming particularly noticeable.
Then, he stretched out his left hand and slowly spread his delicate and moving palm like white jade.
Whoosh!
Just when everyone was wondering what he was doing, a colorful treasure tree about one meter high suddenly appeared from the palm of his hand!
The colorful treasure tree is filled with diamond-shaped fruits of various colors that look like gems. They are dazzling under the light!
Xiao Yu's move immediately shocked the guests at the exchange meeting.
They have been cultivating immortals for so long, but they have never encountered such methods!
In one fell swoop, a strange little tree over one meter tall took shape out of the void!
Could it be some high-tech means?
But this stage was set up by the organizer himself. How could that young man achieve such lifelike special effects on his own?
"This is the first rare thing I want in this world, a colorful treasure tree. This tree likes the cold and may be found in the snowy mountains." The young man in white looked at the guests in the lobby who were shocked and fell silent, and continued to speak loudly.
:
"If you can exchange this tree, our sect will have thirty foundation-building pills."
After waiting for a while, the young man in white showed a sad expression and sighed softly:
"There's none?"
After speaking, the young man waved his left hand, and the colorful treasure tree disappeared instantly.
Before everyone could come to their senses, they saw the young man in white conjuring something out of the void to take shape.
This is a strange flower, its body is like red glass, with five petals, each of which is like a leaf made of crystal. Every part of this flower does not look like a living thing, but they form one and give people a strange feeling of vitality!
"The Inanimate Glazed Flower likes hot environments best." The young man in white waved his sleeves: "We are willing to exchange for ten Foundation Establishment Pills."
"Comrades, I don't know..."
Chapter completed!
