Chen Li walked out of the cave. Outside, the moon was bright, the stars were sparse, and insects were chirping noisily.
He was walking back and forth, thinking in his mind.
"The second-level mid-grade sapphire sword I have is pretty good for an early-stage foundation builder. I got the second-level low-grade flying sword weapon from Zhou Xutang... forget it, it's not as good as Zhou Tiangang Jin's.
What about power?
Now we just need a magical weapon to protect our souls."
When he thought about the mysterious ruby that was inexplicably shattered by evil spirits on the way back from the corvee, he felt a throbbing pain in his heart.
From his current point of view, that mysterious ruby magic weapon should be in the first-level category. Not only can it defend against his full-level scolding spell, but it can also withstand the evil spirit attack of the foundation-building strength level.
one strike.
Although it finally broke, it still blocked...
It's a pity that Zhenzong's elixir refining is still good, but its weapon refining can only be said to be so-so.
Ordinary first-level magic weapons are naturally fine, but second-level and special soul-protecting magic weapons are not.
"I still have to find a way to get another one!"
Staying at the mountain gate is extremely safe, of course there is no need for it.
But when you go out and perform sect tasks, you still have to be careful.
There is only one life.
You can never be too cautious.
"I'll ask someone I know a lot about Zhu Ji tomorrow."
…
Early the next morning.
Chen Li went to visit Bai Yuqing, who lived next door.
The two of them sat down separately, and a maid quickly served tea and left respectfully.
After a brief exchange of greetings, Chen Li explained his intention.
"If you want to buy a second-level magic weapon, fellow Taoist, you can go to the Artifact Sect or Tianxing Sect to have a look!" Bai Yuqing said calmly.
"The sect of the Utensil Sect is still there? Didn't it say that the ancestor of the Jindan of the Utensil Sect fell!" Chen Li asked strangely. He was quite familiar with this sect. After the fall of Green River Square, it was occupied by the Utensil Sect for quite some time.
.
"Haha, the Artifact Sect was originally founded by an elder of the Huoyun Sect of the Yuanying sect. It is almost equivalent to a branch of the Huoyun Sect. Over the past few hundred years, there have been frequent exchanges without interruption. In the capital of the Huoyun Sect,
It's all in name, who do you think dares to invade?" Bai Yuqing chuckled lightly, then seemed to feel something was wrong, and quickly held it back.
"I see, I didn't expect that the Utensil Sect would have such a big background." Chen Li sighed.
Those who are destroyed are those who have no background.
A sect like the Changsheng Sect has only been established for more than a hundred years. It has no foundation and no foothold. Even if it has been rampant for a while, once the golden elixir falls, it will not be able to survive.
Next, Chen Li asked one by one how to buy and which route to take.
Bai Yuqing was patient at first and answered Chen Li's questions carefully one by one. But after asking too many questions, he soon became impatient and threw out a map: "This is a map of the surrounding areas. It faces various areas.
All dangerous places are marked, fellow Taoists can go back and study them carefully."
"I'm really annoying fellow Taoist." Chen Li thanked him with his hands.
"No, no, it's just a little effort!" Bai Yuqing said politely quickly, and finally heaved a sigh of relief.
…
After Chen Li arranged his home.
Early the next morning, while Zhou Hong and Zhang Shuniang were reluctant to leave, they used Yuanci Sliding Escape Technique and soared into the sky.
After flying a certain distance from the mountain gate, he immediately accelerated, and his body was like a stream of light, and soon disappeared into the sky.
The straight-line distance between Luanluo City and Baishi City in the Artifact Domain is more than a thousand miles, but for Chen Li, who possesses the full-level Yuan Magnetic Sliding Escape Technique, such a distance is really not that far.
It took off when the sky was still bright, stopping and flying all the way. When I saw the white cultivation cities one after another from high altitude, the sun was just setting in the west.
When he was still more than ten miles away from Baishi City, Chen Li quickly landed, got into the woods on the roadside, found a remote place, took a Qi Gathering Pill, adjusted his breath for a while, and restored his spiritual power.
When the spiritual power in his body was fully recovered, he changed his face, walked out of the woods, and merged with the crowd rushing to the city.
To be cautious, I didn't wear the Zhenzong's robe before setting off, and only wore an ordinary robe.
This was Chen Li's first time in the outer realm, and everything was extremely novel. What impressed him most about this realm was that there were so many flying boats here, and they traveled very frequently in the sky.
Especially near Baishi City, the only cultivation city in the Utensil Gate.
Every once in a while, a flying boat takes off or lands in the city.
Chen Li remembered that the Artifact Sect was planning to establish a flying boat route in Green River Fang, but before the trip could be completed, the Jindan ancestor of the Artifact Sect died.
This Cultivation City, as its name suggests, is made entirely of white boulders. Under the scorching summer sun, it looks so white that it is quite dazzling. You can probably faintly see it from hundreds of miles away.
This place is obviously much more lively than Luanluo City. There are dense pedestrians on the road, and monks flying with weapons in the air can be seen everywhere.
Chen Li was very excited and not in a hurry. He looked left and right along the way and decided to come here for a trip.
He walked slowly for more than an hour before arriving at Baishi City.
No one asked him about his identity. Chen Li followed the flow of people into the city and took a cursory walk around. He found that the prosperity of business here was far beyond that of Luanluo City, and there were many foundations.
After walking for only about ten minutes, I found no less than three people.
If Ji Ji restrains his aura and doesn't want others to see it, it will be difficult to tell. However, this cannot be concealed by Chen Li who used the technique of seeking good luck and avoiding evil before entering the city gate.
The max-level skill of seeking good luck and avoiding evil is like his sixth sense. No matter how well the foundation is hidden, Chen Li can keenly sense it.
"Most of them are people like me who come here to buy second-level magic weapons!" Chen Lizhi thought.
He visited several magic weapon shops along the roadside. Although he saw no trace of second-level magic tools, the first-level magic tools left in the shop were more refined in terms of etching and style of the talisman array.
, even the price is much cheaper.
Seeing the benefits, Chen Li couldn't help but buy two sets of women's first-class robes from a robe shop, spending a total of 85 medium-grade spiritual stones.
One set is naturally given to Zhou Hong.
The other set was given to Zhang Shuniang.
Unlike Zhou Hong, who has purchased several sets of top-quality robes over the years.
Zhang Shuniang only wears two sets so far, one set of low-grade robes and one set of medium-grade robes, which Zhou Hong bought for her, which looks very pitiful.
Chen Li bought the robe, paid the money, and then asked the store for information about the auction.
Since the market for second-level magical artifacts is relatively small, artifacts are generally sold in the form of auctions.
I realized that I was lucky enough to come here, as there was a large-scale auction in Baishi City the day after tomorrow.
After leaving the robe shop, seeing that it was already evening, he found a high-end inn with accommodation and food to stay, planning to stay here for a few days.
The high price of ten low-grade spiritual stones per day, not including meals, is enough to make Qi Lianxiu a monk astonished, but for Chen Li today, it is just a drop of gold, and it is not enough for him to sell a golden amulet.
The inn is expensive for its own sake. Each guest room is equipped with a formation to block out prying eyes and sounds. There is also a hot spring bath inside, which is said to have special magical effects.
Chen Li took off his robe and soaked in the hot spring.
When a person goes out alone, he feels like he is free from a prison.
He closed his eyes and exhaled. Since he came to this world, he rarely took a bath. Everything was replaced by cleansing charms/spells. This was the first time for him to soak in a hot spring like this.
The experience is very good.
Chen Li soaked in the bath for nearly an hour before getting up from the bath.
He couldn't feel the specific special effects of this hot spring, but after taking a bath, he felt really refreshed and his blood flow was smooth. The fatigue caused by the long flight was all gone.
…
A night of silence.
Early the next morning, Chen Li went to the auction house in Baishi City.
"Second-grade low-grade flying sword, close to mid-grade." The auction house's palm saw the items that Chen Li took out. He couldn't help but take a look at Chen Li, but he didn't make much of a fuss. The Artifact Sect is famous for its refining, and every auction
At that time, there were foreign foundation builders coming here.
"Senior...are you really planning to auction it?" Zhang Yan asked in a tentative tone: "This second-hand second-hand low-grade flying sword won't fetch a high price!"
"Shoot!" Chen Li said coldly.
The second-level low-grade flying sword is of no use to him, so he might as well auction it for some money.
"Senior, do you need a private room? The private room isolates spiritual consciousness. After the auction, the auction items can be sent to your door for trading. There is also an independent secret door that you can leave directly. It is quite hidden."
This is indeed a commercial city, and the service is attentive, Chen Li thought to himself.
“Then book a room!”
"You need to pay a medium-grade spiritual stone."
Chen Li took out a medium-grade spiritual stone, completed the formalities, took a token with a room number on it, and walked out of the auction house. Next, he had no intention of shopping anymore, so he simply went back to the inn to practice and have three meals a day.
The inn solves it.
In just two days, nearly two middle-grade spiritual stones were spent on room and meal expenses alone, which was enough to cover the expenses of an ordinary casual cultivator for one or two years. It was considered a rare luxury.
Time passed in a flash.
The next morning, I had breakfast and calculated that it was almost time.
Chen Li walked out and headed to the auction house.
The place was already very lively and crowded.
After showing the token, he quickly went through the secret door to a private room on the second floor under the guidance of the auction house's Zhike.
"Senior, please take your time. If you need anything, please call me at any time. I will be waiting at the door." After offering tea, fruits and an auction catalogue, Zhike bowed.
Chen Li nodded lightly.
Zhike immediately understood, walked away respectfully, and gently closed the door.
Chen Li casually picked up the auction catalog and flipped through it quickly. The front was basically stuff for Qi Practitioners. He glanced at it quickly and quickly flipped to the back.
"No wonder Bai Yuqing recommended coming here!"
There are too many second-level items for auction here.
His second-level low-grade flying sword could only be at the forefront and was inconspicuous at all.
There are all kinds of formations, magic weapons, magic robes, all kinds of precious spiritual materials, and elixirs. Compared to here, Luanluo City is really a wild place, and there are almost no auctions of this level.
Chen Li was lucky and found what he wanted very quickly.
The Guardian Mirror, a second-order low-grade magic weapon, is the fourth from the bottom in the catalog and is considered one of the finale items. Behind it are a second-order mid-grade magic weapon, a second-order high-grade magic weapon, and the final lot.
A realm-breaking pill used to break through the realm in the middle stage of foundation building.
