Mysterious Catastrophe

"It's just... Although the monks in this world are dedicated to seeking immortality, they have never heard of anyone who has really become an immortal and can live forever..."

"Even the Nascent Soul monsters, most of them are wandering in the early stage of the Nascent Soul, and then died of old age after a thousand years..."

"Even though he was coercive in all directions during his lifetime, he will eventually be blown away by the rain of time and time..."

Aaron wandered around the market, and the bookstore where he originally purchased the exercises had long since disappeared. Instead, there was a three-story attic named 'Wanfa Pavilion'!

As soon as he walked in, a beautiful woman in a pink dress with half-exposed shoulders greeted her, and said with a sweet smile: "My concubine is Ye Jiuniang, welcome to the guest officer, I don't know what the guest officer wants... anything It can be negotiated!"

When she spoke, her big eyes flickered, like a pool of warm spring water, which made Aaron almost feel like his whole body was electrified.

Not to mention, as the other party approaches, that seductive fragrance like orchid and musk deer makes people feel ecstatic.

'Good guy...why does this female cultivator give me the same feeling as when I criticized the gang of charming female cultivators?It seems that she is also a little fairy who has practiced the art of spring cry, no, a big fairy! '

"Purchase exercises, foundation building and above."

Aaron sat down carelessly, facing the beautiful woman who consciously gave her welfare, and even pinched the other's soft flesh.

"Yo... this is really big business."

Ye Jiuniang rolled a white look at Aaron with mild annoyance, and saw that although Aaron would not refuse anyone, but his eyes were extremely clear, she knew that she had encountered a ruthless character, so she put away the previous trick of watching Yan Xing, solemnly He said: "Since fellow daoists have completed Qi refining, it is normal to consider foundation building exercises... There are not many collections of foundation building exercises in this attic, only three sets... This is an introduction!"

As he spoke, he handed over a pink jade slip.

Aaron held it in his hand and checked it quickly.

"Dragon Yin Jue", "Gui Ling Gong", "Remnants of Netherworld"...

Among them, "Dragon Yin Jue" can be cultivated to the late stage of foundation establishment, and monks with fire spirit roots can practice it, and they are good at the technique of harvesting and nourishing. If there are a large number of Taoist companions or furnace cauldrons, the skills can be improved by leaps and bounds.

And "Gui Ling Gong" can be cultivated to the middle stage of foundation building, suitable for monks with wood and earth spirit roots, steady and steady, stable and stable, and the mana is moderate and peaceful... To put it bluntly, everything is average.

As for the final "Nether Remnants"...

""The Remnants of the Netherworld", is it actually a magic skill?"

Aaron looked at Ye Jiuniang and said in surprise.

"Hehe... Fellow Daoist, you got the picture. The so-called 'magic art' is still the practice of breathing out the spiritual energy of the world. At most, the nature of mana tends to be filthy, or it is good at manipulating ghosts and zombies... In essence, it is no different from other immortal cultivators! "

Ye Jiuniang said sternly: "This "Remnants of the Netherworld" comes from the Great Golden Elixir School of Wu Kingdom. Although there are only cultivation formulas in the early stage of foundation establishment here, if you have a good chance, you may be able to use this to worship the Great Golden Core School in the future and get What about the golden elixir technique!"

"If there is a magical power to reduce life, I can think about it..."

Aaron complained in his heart, but he also knew that this was impossible.

Immortal cultivators sit dry and practice in order to break through the great realm and prolong their lifespan.

What is the skill of shortening life and cultivating immortality?It is completely contrary!

Even monks from the Demon Sect pursue immortality!

Or there are some immortal cultivation skills in the Demonic Dao, which are also exclusive to cannon fodder, medicine man, and furnace cauldron. They are basically in the Qi refining period, and they don't even have a foundation!

However, I heard that the monks of the Wu Kingdom have some evil spells, which need to consume blood and life, and they are quite powerful!

This made Aaron very interested, but he didn't have the motivation to ask for it immediately, because the journey was far away and it was a foreign country, it was too dangerous!

"Aren't there any more?"

Aaron frowned.

Neither "Dragon Yin Jue" nor "Nether Remnants" met his appetite.

Moreover, the spiritual root aptitude does not meet the requirements!

However, although "Gui Ling Gong" barely fits the bill, it is somewhat disrespectful, at most it is considered an alternative.

"How rare is the foundation building technique? There are three copies in this pavilion, isn't it enough?"

Ye Jiuniang gave Ya Lun a white look: "If fellow Taoists want better quality products... I'm afraid we'll have to wait until the big auction once every ten years."

According to the rules of Dongmenfang City, there is a small auction once a year and a big auction once every ten years.

Counting the time, the next big auction is indeed not far away.

"It seems that this is the only way to go. Let me say goodbye..."

Aaron stood up and left gracefully.

It wasn't until his back disappeared that Ye Jiuniang's expression became gloomy, and she cursed bitterly: "Iron rooster, you can't pull out a hair... Didn't my wife eat tofu for nothing? If it wasn't a Dzogchen monk, I would definitely let you know sharp!"

……

Next, Aaron went to the 'Smelting Furnace' and bought a medium-grade magic weapon 'Shenxuan Sword' at a high price of 60 Yuan Lingshi.

This is also the reason why the price premium of offensive magic weapons is the least scary, while defensive magic weapons generally increase by two or three tiers, and the increase of escape and special magic weapons is even more terrifying.

Aaron felt the pain of being slaughtered, but he had to buy it.

"Anyway, I have a medium-grade magic weapon in my hand, and my combat power can make up for some shortcomings..."

As for the purchase of spell cultivation and the like?It will take a lot of time. After thinking about it, Aaron is still not willing to let go of the opportunity of the big auction.

And this time is obviously not enough to improve the spell proficiency.

In fact, due to the inconvenient nature of casting spells, monks seldom cast spells in combat after the foundation building period, but mostly use talismans, top-level magic tools, and even supernatural powers attached to their own skills.

Today's Aaron, if he wants to quickly improve his combat power, nothing can be faster than getting a middle-grade magic weapon!

"Now... go out of the valley first, and go to the mortal city to sacrifice the 'Shenxuan Sword'!"

"Then, just wait outside until the big auction starts, and leave immediately after participating... Minimize the risk."

With a plan in mind, Aaron left Dongmen Valley.

As for Donglong old man's employer?

This family has long since moved away from the East Gate Valley, and is now spreading branches and leaves in the area near Qingding Gate.

Even after Dongfang Shuo sat down, it was still the same.

……

After January.

In a mortal city.

Somewhere in the mansion.

A cyan streamer ran wildly in the house.

"go with!"

Aaron pointed to the potted plant not far away, and a cyan streamer flashed across, like a lightning storm!

And the potted plants and the red sandalwood frame seemed to be nothing at first, and after waiting for a while, they scattered to both sides, and were evenly divided into two halves!

"As expected of a middle-grade magic weapon, although it consumes more mana, its sharpness and speed have been greatly improved."

Aaron took back the 'Shenxuan Sword'. This sword is about two feet long and has no hilt. Both ends are blades. It is so sharp that ordinary people can't grasp it. It is a magic weapon that only immortals can manipulate.

On the body of the sword, there are also fine lines like annual rings.

"Calculate the time, the big auction is coming soon."

Aaron wiped his face, his joints cracked and exploded, and he turned into a dark-skinned middle-aged man 'Ye Fei' again. Then he put on a bamboo hat, performed the 'Wind Control Technique', and headed for the East Gate Valley.

When I arrived at Taniguchi, I found that the flow of people today was much more than usual.

This is even more so after entering Fangshi.

The big auction held every ten years is also a grand event for the nearby casual cultivators. I don't know how many people took the opportunity to set up stalls and sell items.

Aaron walked around, trying to pick up the leaks.

In the end, he found helplessly that his eyesight was limited.

Occasionally, I found something that might be a 'missing' item. Looking at the expression of the stall owner's old god, I also felt suspicious. After waiting for a long time, I found that a certain stunned young man had been tricked.

What Aaron took a fancy to at the booth was an ordinary ore that was suspected to have a raw ore of spirit stone hidden inside.

Then the dazed-headed young man also saw it, and when he was about to buy it at a low price, another immortal cultivator who was ready jumped out to bid.

In the end, the stunned young man had to spend a lot of money to buy the ore.

Then when the stone was untied, the stunned head was dumbfounded. There was only a thin layer of spirit stone inside the ore, and the rest were solid. Compared with the purchase price, it was a blood loss!

When encountering this kind of thing, even if he blushed and argued with the stall owner, the other party would just call the patrol team with a smile, and he could only suffer a hard loss.

Aaron, who watched this scene from beginning to end, couldn't help feeling emotional:

'The immortal cultivators are so human...can they still make people play happily? '

'This is deliberately using half-truths and half-false things to trick newcomers... the water is too deep. '

Aaron feels that it is better not to try to pick up the loopholes before he has cultivated some clairvoyance, or has extremely extensive knowledge.

And at night, in the largest building in Fang City, the annual auction finally started!

……

Aaron sat upright in the hall, revealing his perfect cultivation of qi refining, and one person occupied a table.

He looked left and right, and found that although it is rare for him to complete the Qi refining like himself, there are more than a dozen people in the hall!

Some of them hide their heads and show their tails, while others show their figures and faces indifferently.

As for the box on the second floor of the auction house, it is naturally a private seat that can only be enjoyed by the major foundation establishment forces.

Aaron didn't care about this either. He closed his eyes and rested silently while waiting for the auction to start.

When the moon was in the middle of the sky, a ray of light suddenly flew out from the attic and landed on the big red booth in the center, revealing an old man wearing a fine dress with a clear face.

A coercion much higher than that of the refining period suddenly expanded in all directions!

"Old man Huabao, I'm here to preside over this auction, and I hope you will save face, harmony makes money, harmony makes money..."

The old man saluted in all directions with a smile, and immediately clapped his hands amid the gasps of many qi refining monks, and a group of maids in palace costumes carrying trays came onto the booth.

"First of all, today's first lot - the top-grade magic weapon 'Wu Yunsuo'!"

The leopard tore off the red cloth, revealing a jet-black shiny shuttle-shaped magic weapon that seemed to have red threads inside, and announced with a smile: "The starting price is 200 yuan for low-grade spirit stones!"

"The top-grade magic weapon and the middle-grade magic weapon are two levels... because the middle-grade magic weapon is still used by monks in the Qi refining period, and the top-grade magic weapon is basically used by the foundation establishment..."

Aaron watched with cold eyes, and saw that Wu Yunsuo was quickly won by a guest in the box on the second floor at a high price of 290 seven spirit stones.

Fortunately, the big auction is also the first auction item to grab people's attention first, and the next few auction items are not so expensive.

For example, some high-quality products in middle-grade instruments, and even pills that improve Qi refining cultivation, etc...

Aaron saw a piece of 'Purple Cloud Pill', which is said to be of great benefit to break through the bottleneck in the middle stage of Qi refining, but was scrambled by Qi refining monks, and finally sold for a high price of nearly a hundred spirit stones!

Magical artifacts, panacea, exercises, secret techniques, elixir, spirit beasts, furnaces...

All kinds of imaginable and unexpected resources for cultivating immortals were displayed one by one at the big auction, which made Aaron feel that even if he didn't buy it, it would be good to come here to open his eyes.

At this time, the leopard on the stage uncovered another layer of red cloth, revealing two snow-white monster eggs the size of eggs.

"Two longevity tortoise eggs! Everyone should have heard of this 'longevity tortoise'. It is the only spirit beast whose advancement does not depend on bloodline qualifications, but purely on the basis of years... This pair of longevity tortoise eggs comes from a pair of second-order The Longevity Turtle here is pretty good, and the starting price for one piece is one hundred spirit stones!"

After the appearance of these two turtle eggs, there was a lot of discussion among the casual cultivators below:

"As the saying goes, the king of a thousand years is a tortoise of 8 years. It is this long-lived tortoise! ​​I have heard of this spirit beast for a long time. It grows extremely slowly. Although there seems to be no bottleneck in advancing, it can kill monks alive!"

"Fellow Daoist, this statement is wrong. This tortoise has a long lifespan. Once it is cultivated, it will be more useful to protect the family than any powerful talisman or treasure."

"Hehe...that's because you don't know how bad this longevity turtle is! It takes at least 100 years from hatching to enter the refining stage! It takes 500 years to enter the second level and have foundation building combat power...and you want to become A third-level golden core monster must live at least a thousand years... a thousand-year golden core, the Nascent Soul monster can't afford to wait! Not to mention the training costs in these years... blood loss, blood loss!"

"Yeah, I've also heard the name of the thousand-year-old Jindan Wannianying's 'Longevity Turtle'. It is said that the Foundation Establishment family tried to cultivate it. As a result, this monster has not yet established the foundation, and that family has declined..."

……

Other monks talked a lot, which made the pair of long-lived turtle eggs almost pass the auction.

But in the end, they were bought by two monks who concealed their identities.

After all... For the Immortal Cultivation Family and Zongmen, it may take hundreds of years to cultivate monsters, and perhaps they can still persist through gritting their teeth.

Moreover, it may also be used for alchemy or consumed in other ways.

'Pity……'

Aaron's eyes lit up when he heard it from below: "Is it a thousand-year golden elixir and a ten-year-old nascent baby? It's a pity... If it's cheaper, I'll buy it, and then it will be interesting to compare who can survive with the tortoise..."
