Yuntian City, a high-end auction held once every ten years, has entered the second half.
At the venue, there were not only the immortals from all the major forces, but also the old monster Nascent Soul who was scanning with their spiritual consciousness.
"One hundred thousand spirit stones!"
"Bitter Lotus Fragrance, a rare Heart Tribulation-type baby-forming spiritual object, is there anyone with a higher price?"
"One hundred and ten thousand spirit stones!"
From the VIP room where the Yunxia Sect was located, a pleasant female voice came from the room.
"Since Zixia Fairy is determined by this bitter lotus fragrance, I will become a beautiful person."
From another VIP room, a hoarse and deep male voice came.
True Lord Zixia looked worried and snorted coldly.
Bitter lotus incense is not the best kind of baby-carrying spiritual item, but a disposable consumable.
The bidding price at this moment has already reached a significant premium.
Fortunately, no one made an offer anymore, and Zhenjun Zixia won the "Bitter Lotus Fragrance", a heart-destroying infant-forming spiritual object.
In the private room, Lu Changan, Xuefeng Zhenren, Jiang Haoyuan and others were also sitting.
Lu Changan thought thoughtfully, there are more types of infant-forming spiritual objects on the Dayuan side than on the Daqing side.
But the proportion of monks here who can try to conceive a baby is significantly higher than that in Daqing.
The Huaying Pill is too difficult to obtain. Even in Yuanying Sect, most of the disciples who are true disciples cannot enjoy it.
If you can't get the Infant Transformation Pill, you can get two kinds of other infant-forming spiritual objects.
The 20% probability of not having the Infant Transformation Pill does not mean there is no hope.
For thousands of years, in the Great Abyss, which is several times wider in area, there have occasionally been cases where non-top geniuses can successfully conceive babies without the Infant Transformation Pill.
At this auction, Lu Changan only bought two items.
The auxiliary medicine of Huaying Dan costs 10,000 to 20,000 yuan, with a slight premium; it is also a quasi-fourth-level treasure material, used for the supernatural peacock puppet.
Since there were many Nascent Soul old monsters on the field, it was easy for the puppet clones to reveal their secrets when bidding, so Lu Changan was more restrained.
The key resources for promotion to the Transformed Demon King only appear the same.
Unfortunately, it was a plant-like spiritual creature that was not suitable for the Earth Rock Rat, so it was auctioned off by the "Red Snake Lord" of the Big Snake Mountain at a higher premium.
It is said that the resources for promotion to the Demon King are more abundant along the southeast coast of Dayuan, which is basically controlled by the Zhenhai Sixteenth Sect.
"Senior Zixia, this is your auction item."
Not long after, two alchemy-forming monks escorted a palace-dressed beauty and delivered the infant-forming spiritual object "Bitter Lotus Fragrance" to the VIP room of the Yunxia Sect.
After Fairy Zixia appraised it, she accepted the bitter lotus fragrance with a hint of regret.
The Yunxia Sect has basically gathered together a resource for infant formation, and does not have much spare time to produce top-quality Heart Tribulation-type spiritual objects.
The best Heart Tribulation-type spiritual objects are rare to see in a hundred years, the competition is huge, and their value is comparable to the Tianying Fruit.
Lu Changan has the memory experience of three Nascent Soul Sovereigns, and knows that most of the spiritual beings of the Heart Tribulation type are better than nothing.
A monk with a truly great will and no mental flaws will have almost no impact on the outcome even if he does not have a spiritual creature like the Heart Tribulation.
Therefore, the more ancient a sect is, the more attention it pays to the character of the mind when selecting disciples.
Small sects like Jinyun Valley have corresponding ancestral rules: if you are ranked first in Huanxin Terrace, no matter how poor your spiritual root qualifications are, you will be accepted into the sect unconditionally.
The final stage of the auction.
A dozen treasures such as the fourth-level longevity pill and the infant transformation pill are facing fierce competition from the major forces in the Central Abyss.
Under such circumstances, even if there is competition for financial resources among the alchemy monks who are not powerful, they will inevitably make enemies and bear considerable risks.
Lu Changan is now considered to be backed by a big force.
However, he did not have a deep enough friendship with the two True Lords Yunlan and Zixia, and lacked real trust.
If the Earth Rock Rat can become a fourth-level demon king, there will be no need to worry.
In the end, the transaction price of Huaying Dan was not high, only tens of thousands. Because the bidder provided corresponding strategic items, including two main medicines of Huaying Dan that were not old.
It is different from Foundation Establishment Pill and Crystal Condensation Pill.
Each time the Huaying Dan is refined, only one can be produced.
Fortunately, as long as there are enough materials and a fourth-level alchemist takes action, the refining difficulty is not too high and the success rate is relatively high.
…
After the auction ends.
The monks led by Yunxia Sect will not leave Yuntian City immediately, and there are still some purchasing transactions in the city.
Zhenjun Zixia wants to attend some private meetings, not limited to Yuanying old monster, but mainly about cooperation matters with Yunxia Sect.
Lu Changan was still in the city, selling stolen goods and purchasing.
In addition to puppet materials, some body refining materials were also added.
Due to the abundant source of monster essence and blood, Yuntian City has many medicinal powders that promote body refining.
Lu Changan's body training has been at the late third level for fifty years, and he is not far from the peak of the third level.
Prepare a new type of body-refining medicated bath with low drug resistance and better tempering effect.
While purchasing and selling the stolen goods, Lu Changan sent a puppet clone to stay near the official post where he left a message last time, keeping an eye on Jing Wufeng.
Lu Changan did not see Jing Wufeng at this auction.
Or he didn't come.
Either there was a strong disguise, and there were too many people to see it, so Lu Changan failed to detect it.
Three days later.
In the restaurant opposite the official inn, Jing Wufeng appeared.
In the sky-shaped private room facing the street and by the window of the restaurant, a young man wearing a green silk shirt and light blue eyes sat in a leisurely manner.
"Spirit-possessed puppet? It's interesting. Such rare puppet skills are rare in the Great Abyss."
From the corner of his eye, Jing Wufeng glanced at the man in a bamboo hat sitting in the corner of the market.
His vision is extraordinary, and he has even dealt with the legendary "Taoist Tianshu", so he is not surprised by this.
Lu Changan on the other side noticed it and took back the puppet clone.
"This kid, without close contact, can actually see through the puppet clone?"
Lu Changan was secretly surprised.
The puppet clone did not use spiritual consciousness to detect it. Normally, it is difficult to take the initiative to see through it below the Nascent Soul stage.
After a while.
Lu Changan disguised his identity and came to the high-end restaurant opposite the inn.
After giving the code name "Sedum", he was received by a foundation-building female cultivator and entered the Tianzi private room on the third floor.
In the private room, there is an isolation restriction, and only Jing Wufeng is alone.
"Fellow Taoist Xiang, please sit down."
"Jingtian, please come back and be well!"
Lu Changan regained his appearance as a bald young man and said with a smile.
Jing Tianren is the Taoist name by which Jing Wufeng became famous near Yuntian City.
The two parties greeted each other and sat down, sizing each other up.
Jing Wufeng has not changed much. After more than twenty years, his cultivation has reached the peak of the late Jindan period.
In this life, Lu Changan has only dealt with three immortal golden elixirs.
Jing Wufeng is one of them, with the most mysterious identity. He traveled from the space rift in an unknown place to the great abyss.
…
In the private room, the two of them did not get straight to the point. They chatted all over the place at first, involving anecdotes about the world of immortality.
Through the conversation, both parties have the intention to find out the details of each other.
Lu Changan has the memory and knowledge of three Nascent Soul Lords, and his words are naturally true.
Unexpectedly, Jing Wufeng's conversational knowledge was not false at all, and he had some understanding of the long history of Tianyan Continent, including some of the humanities and top forces in the big states.
"This person's alchemy cultivation, his knowledge, and the secrets he knows are beyond those of ordinary Nascent Soul monsters."
Lu Changan suspected that the other party came from the forces of ancient inheritance, and that the sect had a late Yuan Ying overhaul.
"This person has both legal and physical cultivation, strong spiritual consciousness, possesses a quasi-fourth-level puppet, and has such knowledge. Could it be that he comes from the holy land of the God Transformation Sect?"
Jing Wufeng thought to himself.
Previously, he had inquired about Lu Changan's information, and his previous experience in the Central Territory of the Great Abyss was completely blank.
Either they have changed their appearance, or they come from other realms outside the Central Territory of the Great Abyss.
"Xiang Zhenren joined the Yunxia Sect and went to the auction with the famous Zixia Fairy, which made Jing Mou envious." Jing Wufeng said with a leisurely smile.
"So, Daoist Jing has participated in the auction."
"Yes, Jing concealed his identity at the time and had a low sense of presence."
Jing Wufeng said calmly.
"Fellow Daoist Jing, who has reached the peak of the Golden Pill, has he ever bid for the resources to create a baby, such as the Baby Transformation Pill?"
"Huaying Dan? I'm not in a hurry."
Jing Wufeng's heart moved, the other party was testing his true identity again.
Because, in the Holy Land of Transformation in Tianyan Continent, a truly outstanding genius and the Transformation Infant Pill are not a necessity.
It's not the highest priority either.
For example, the small sect he belongs to has many advanced products that can replace the Infant Transformation Pill, and there is no erysipelas, which will have less impact on the potential.
Not urgent?
Lu Changan found that this person was not particularly enthusiastic about Huaying Dan and other items, nor did he show any desire for them.
Maybe he's too young.
Most of the ordinary immortal golden elixirs that have been cultivated to the peak of elixir formation are only over two hundred years old.
When it came to age, Lu Changan once again discovered an anomaly.
He has cultivated the Qing Gong and is very sensitive to longevity aura. With a little observation, he can judge the monk's basic longevity.
The Jing Wufeng in front of him was completely invisible.
Many years ago, he deduced the origin of Jing Wufeng, but the result was a mystery.
"Xiang Zhenren cultivated both his body and law, and his soul is extremely solid. Could it be that he wants to attack the 'Tiandao Nascent Soul' in the future?"
Jing Wufeng's eyes flashed and he asked.
Through verbal testing, he regarded Lu Changan as the origin of the Holy Land.
Although the Nascent Soul of Heaven is a legend in the human world,
But in every era of Tianyan Continent, there are many talented people who try to transform the Holy Land.
The main reason is that due to the limitations of heaven and earth, it is too difficult to be born in the divine transformation stage.
There is even an upper limit to the number of gods that can be born in the entire human world!
Those who are promoted are often those with great luck and are favored by heaven.
This leads to the fact that there is no obvious bonus for being promoted to a god, no matter how extraordinary your qualifications are.
"Tiandao Yuanying? Xiang has no confidence at all."
Lu Changan remained calm and shook his head.
In fact, his heart was filled with shock.
What the hell is this Jing Wufeng?
In his eyes, Tiandao Jieying seems to be not a legend, but a certain possibility.
Is it possible that Jing Wufeng's power has the method of forming a baby with the way of heaven?
"Fellow Taoist Xiang, you are so humble. As long as the preparations are done properly and the method is perfect, I think you have at least a chance of becoming the Nascent Soul of the Heavenly Dao."
Jing Wufeng smiled and said something complimentary.
He didn't even dare to try it, and there was no need to take that risk.
The nine disciples of Tianyi are tested, and the winner will surely become a god.
The remaining survivors became the servants and protectors of the next generation of Lord Tianyi.
"Fellow Daoist Jing is so complimentary that the Human Dao Nascent Soul is enough for Xiang."
Out of caution, Lu Changan did not talk too much about this topic to avoid exposing his secrets.
Jing Wufeng has a great background, so it is better to make a good relationship with him and take things slowly in the future.
If there is a way to form a baby through heaven, you can try to trade it in the future. Even if you don't use it in this life, it can come in handy in the next life.
After chatting for a long time, the two finally entered the topic.
"How did Fellow Daoist Xiang think about Jing's proposal in the Valley of Ten Thousand Demons?"
Jing Wufeng said with a confident smile.
The opportunity of the demonic stone heart dragon is very suitable for Lu Changan's earth-type demon. Since the other party is willing to contact him, he probably has intentions.
"Xiang agreed to cooperate."
"However, we must discuss the distribution of benefits and make clear what we will do to help fellow Daoist Jing in the future." Lu Changan said bluntly.
"You and I, work together to kill the Demonic Stone Heart Dragon. The most valuable Stone Heart, the Essence Pill, will be handed over to Master Xiang. Moreover, Jing has the magic weapon and means to restrain the Demonic Stone Heart Dragon to ensure the success rate.
"
"Fellow Daoist Xiang has received such great convenience. What he does in the future will inevitably involve certain risks. In the future, Friend Daoist Xiang will assist Jing in going to the forbidden area in the Central Region to seal a dangerous place where evil energy leaks. This matter will have a great impact on Nascent Soul."
There is also danger in the early stage. However, if both Xiang Zhenren and the spiritual pet can be promoted to fourth-level creatures, the danger will be much less."
Jing Wufeng explained the pros and cons of the mission, but did not explain the specific details.
Lu Changan thought for a while and found that Jing Wufeng's cooperation proposal had clear benefits and risks, so it was considered reasonable.
If he acted alone, he would not be sure to defeat the demonized stone heart dragon. The latter was a demonized demon dragon with a heavenly bloodline and contained part of the true dragon bloodline.
Not to mention killing and obtaining the Stone Dragon's Heart and Essence.
"Today is different from the past. Xiang has a fourth-level puppet, and his strength has greatly increased. Even without the cooperation of fellow Taoist Jing, he can still accomplish this by looking for the Yuan Ying elder from the same sect."
Lu Changan smiled calmly.
"Fourth-level puppet? Not only did Xiang Zhenren practice both physical and mental skills, he also created a fourth-level puppet. It's very real."
When Jing Wufeng heard this, he had no doubts and could not help but be amazed.
He was secretly surprised: Xiang Zhenren was very powerful and capable. If he could win over his help, he would have a good grasp of the trial tasks and could achieve better results in the first round.
"In this case, Jing owes Master Xiang another promise on top of his previous remuneration."
Jing Wufeng said solemnly.
Unfortunately, one of the rules of the trial is that you cannot tell or hint to others about your identity.
Otherwise, all the top powers in Tianheng Continent, including the Great Jin Immortal Dynasty, would flock to the promise he made at this moment and be willing to pay a high price to obtain it.
"Forget it! For the sake of his beloved spiritual pet, Xiang has no choice but to take risks and fight hard."
Lu Changan sighed and reluctantly agreed.
Squeak!
The rock rat in the spiritual pet bag was moved to tears.
"Jing Mou admires the life-and-death relationship between Master Xiang and his spiritual pet."
Jing Wufeng said in a respectful tone.
Later, the two made a third-level spiritual contract, and attached the oath of the inner demon.
Lu Changan made detailed supplements to the agreed content.
For example, if you fail to successfully kill the demonic Stone Heart Dragon and get the spoils, you agree to give up.
If future sealing missions deal with threats from the mid-stage Nascent Soul or above, Lu Changan has the right to raise objections and is not restricted by the oath of the inner demon.
"One year later, we will gather in the Valley of Ten Thousand Demons."
The two discussed some more details before saying goodbye.
call!
Jing Wufeng turned into a phantom in the breeze, passed through the gap in the restaurant, and quickly disappeared.
…
Half a month later.
The Yunxia Sect and his party returned to Dayu Country safely.
It is worth mentioning that Yu Yuanjin from Dayu Kingdom accompanied him on the way.
Zhenjun Zixia was polite and courteous to the Nascent Soul Sword Cultivator of the Dayu royal family, and they had a harmonious conversation.
Lu Changan didn't know how True Lord Yunlan would feel after learning about this matter.
Return to the mountain gate of Yunxia Sect.
Lu Changan met Master Yunqing who had been in seclusion for a long time.
This person personally welcomed the returning team from Yuntian City.
Master Yunqing is over two hundred years old and looks to be less than thirty. He has a handsome appearance and is dressed in a pure white feather robe. He looks elegant and noble.
"Teacher's wife."
Master Yunqing is not good at communicating and speaking. When facing Master Zixia, who seems to be younger than him, he looks a little embarrassed and has a low eyebrow.
Lu Changan stood beside Fairy Zixia, and after a moment of waiting, he discovered that Master Yunqing had reached the peak of the late Jindan period and had the basic conditions to attack the Nascent Soul.
Thinking of Yunxia Sect's actions in the previous twenty years, Lu Changan speculated that Master Yunqing's attack on Nascent Soul would be within the next few years.
"What a coincidence! I wonder if this person can catch up..."
Lu Changan will keep an appointment in a year, and he and Jing Wufeng will enter the Valley of Ten Thousand Demons to hunt down the demonic Stone Heart Dragon. This will not happen in a short while.
Master Yunqing just greeted Master Zixia and nodded slightly to Lu Changan, looking lukewarm.
More than half a year later.
Lu Changan is almost ready, and his body refining skills are approaching the peak of the third level.
On this day, the secret room of Qingluan Peak Cave Mansion.
Lu Changan took out the Xuantian Gourd Vine that was rooted in the ground.
Naturally, he would not leave Xuanteng alone at the mountain gate for such a risky journey.
After everything was prepared, Lu Changan went to the main peak of the fourth-level spiritual veins to pay a visit and inform Zixia Zhenjun.
It is said that he is seeking promotion opportunities for the rock rat, doing his best and leaving no regrets.
This trip may take at least one year, or at most two or three years.
Zhenjun Zixia naturally had no reason to refuse, and expressed her appreciation for Lu Changan's character of being able to interact with his spiritual pet.
