Cultivating Immortality in a World of Chaos - Chapter 620

[Chapter 619: Old Friend (Additional Updates, Please Subscribe)]

“It seems that the Black Water Sect has a lot of dirty information about the Dragon Control Sect, which is why it is so miserable…”

Fang Xi thought of what Venerable Heimiao said last time about the Dragon Control Sect letting the evil dragon devour the cultivator’s Nascent Soul, and now he believed it completely, and even suspected that the Black Water Sect might have hard evidence!
Otherwise, there was no way to explain why the Dragon Control Sect went to such great lengths to do it!

However, Fang Xi was too lazy to pay attention.

After walking out of the bamboo house, he began to visit the shops on both sides of the street one by one.

After so many years, many shops in the Machinery City had updated their wares, but there was nothing that caught Fang Xi’s eye.

“What I urgently need now is a flagpole of excellent quality… and one that matches the Xuanming heavy water…”

“If it really doesn’t work, I can only cut off a piece of demon tree branch, but I feel that these two things don’t seem to fit together…”

When refining magic weapons, naturally not all materials can be replaced at will.

Unfortunately, after walking around, Fang Xi still didn’t find the spiritual woods he had in mind.

“It seems that we can only wait for the big auction?”

Fang Xi sighed and was about to leave.

Suddenly, there was a fierce quarrel coming from the shop ahead, or rather, one party was scolding the other.

Fang Xi leaned over to take a look and found that it was a talisman shop. There was a hazy white cloud on the door and walls, and a golden plaque with four big characters “Fu Family Old Shop” written on it in ancient seal script.

“You have always been lazy, and now you have ruined this stack of ‘Hua Xu Talisman Paper’. This really pissed me off…”

An old man with a white beard, small but sparkling eyes, looking very shrewd, was scolding one of his servants with spit flying all over his body.

The fellow looked young, with his head lowered and his clenched fists showing his dissatisfaction.

Fang Xi watched with great interest. The old man’s cultivation was around the Jindan stage, while the fellow was only in the initial stage of foundation building. It was obvious that he would be difficult to resist.

This guy gave him a slightly familiar feeling.

The Divine Transformation Level Divine Mind thought for a moment and then recalled: “It must be the descendant of the Li family of Feiri City…”

The Sunset Plains is too large. Even if one has reached the Jindan level of cultivation, one would not dare to travel around the countries easily, let alone go out and explore.

Selling oneself to a caravan like the Machinery City is almost the only way.

The old man scolded her for a few words before proudly taking out the account book: “The talisman you ruined today is worth six hundred spirit stones. You are so poor that you can’t pay for it. According to the contract, you should extend your indenture to pay off the debt…”

At this point, the young man could no longer bear it: “Boss… these talisman papers have many incomplete spiritual patterns, which are obviously defective. It is normal for accidents to occur, and they are not worth 600 spiritual stones… What’s more, you deliberately found an excuse to extend my contract before, and now it has been 30 years longer than the original contract, and you are still not satisfied?”

If he doesn’t argue for his rights, he might be tied up and killed here.

Seeing that more and more monks were gathering around, he finally protested loudly.

“Li Ruling!” The old man’s expression immediately turned cold. “You have been sneaky and cunning, and have wasted so many of our store’s precious materials. Now you dare to turn the tables? You are making a fuss… Call the law enforcement monks and see who is right.”

With the contract in his hand, he had nothing to fear.

What’s more, although the law enforcement monks in the Machinery City are known to be fair and strict, they will naturally favor him, a native and one of their own who is a Jindan monk.

Li Ruling clenched his fist several times, but then loosened it helplessly: “This stack of talisman paper is not worth six hundred spirit stones… If you don’t believe me, let’s call a few cultivators to take a look… I am willing to accept the loss, but the price must be lower…”

After the farce, many monks dispersed contentedly.

Fang Xi’s eyes flickered beneath her veil, but she had no intention of standing up for Li Ruling.

Only after the crowd had dispersed did he move his lips a few times and transmit a few words through his spiritual consciousness.

With his powerful spiritual awareness, naturally none of the monks around him noticed it.

Half a day later.

The back door of the Fu family’s old store opened, and a figure sneaked out, walked a few streets, and entered a secluded corner.

Seeing the deserted alley, a look of disappointment appeared on his face.

“You are very brave, aren’t you afraid that I have bad intentions?”

Suddenly, a voice sounded, and Fang Xi’s figure appeared in a flash.

“Li Ruling pays respect to the senior…”

Li Ruling bowed deeply and said, “Senior, your strength far exceeds mine. If you have any ill intentions, I cannot resist… Moreover, I have no life left. I am afraid I will be a slave for the rest of my life.”

“Not bad, thoughtful, brave and daring…”

Fang Xi nodded. He didn’t force himself to help this person during the day because he wanted to observe him more.

Now it seems that there is still some room for improvement: “Unfortunately… There are so many cultivators like you in the world of immortal cultivation, but in the end most of them die on the roadside, worse than stray dogs…”

Li Ruling’s expression suddenly turned pale: “If this is the case, then it is Ruling’s destiny… At least, I have seen more of the scenery of the immortal world, and I have no regrets in death…”

“hehe……”

Fang Xi did not comment, and suddenly threw a jade slip and a jade bottle over.

“This…” Li Ruling probed into it with his spiritual sense and found that it was an exquisite practice method, and even came with a talisman inheritance: “The Mysterious Talisman Secret Record… turns out to be mainly about practicing talismans, and it can also improve cultivation… and finally condense into a ‘Talisman Pill’…”

This was naturally the technique that Fang Xi found from the Wang family’s treasury.

Although he has only reached the Nascent Soul stage, it is still pretty good.

“Inside this jade bottle are elixirs that will be of great benefit to your current cultivation… If you still can’t turn things around after getting these, it only means that you are fit to be a slave for the rest of your life!”

Fang Xi nodded, turned and left.

“Senior… please leave your name. I will always remember your kindness!”

Li Ruling shouted hurriedly, but found that there was a flash of light under Fang Xi’s feet, as if the ground had shrunk into an inch, and he disappeared without a trace after a few steps. Only a few lingering sounds came: “The Western guest in Feiri City…”

“Teacher… could it be that teacher Fang Yuanfang from back then?”

Li Ruling’s eyes lit up.

He is also considered a legendary figure in the Li family. It is said that he made a mistake in predicting spirits when he was young, and later turned to studying and became a teacher in the Li family, but he found an immortal fate in the Mechanical City.

It is said that the other party’s master has great magical powers and once saved the life of the city lord Zhang Longhu. Therefore, Zhang Longhu entered the Taoism through martial arts, and after forming the immortal golden elixir, he took good care of the Li family.

Later, Fang Yuan occasionally sent letters, saying that he had followed his master to settle in Kongsang City, and even condensed the golden elixir more than eighty years ago!

Now that Kongsang Market is nearby, Li Ling has thought about asking someone to visit and even ask for help, but his cultivation level is low and he does not have enough spirit stones on him.

Unexpectedly, I met him right in the Mechanical City.

“This senior Fang Yuanfang is truly a benefactor of our Li family…”

Li Ruling sighed and hurried back to the shop.

He had endured humiliation for many years and knew that his boss’s practice of ‘Qing Ping Gong’ required him to be in a state of meditation at this time every day. This was a good opportunity to be lazy.

But after a few more sticks of incense, the other party will be able to complete his practice and come to inspect the store again…

…

Fang Xi helped casually and put the matter behind him.

To him, no matter whether it was elixirs or martial arts techniques, they were nothing but a drop in the bucket.

Now I just act on impulse and consolidate the character of ‘Fang Yuan’ at the same time.

If Qing Hezi and the Wang family’s ancestors’ identities are exposed in the future and they are hunted down by the Yulong Sect, they can still hide back in Feiri City and become country bumpkins…

He randomly found a hotel that rented caves, rented a cave, and began to wait silently for the auction to begin.

Time flies.

This day.

Accompanied by a roar, Fang Xi, who was in meditation, opened his eyes and walked out of the cave. He saw a dark green beam of light rising into the sky, which was extremely conspicuous in the entire Mechanical City.

Along with the rising pillar of light, there were bursts of immortal music, lingering in the air for three days, with a lingering aftertaste…

“The big auction has started, I hope there will be some good stuff.”

Fang Xi sighed and rushed to the auction location.

Along the way, he saw many high-level cultivators, most of whom were in the Nascent Soul stage, and even the Spiritual Transformation stage was not uncommon.

Chirp!
With a high-pitched sound of a phoenix, a woman with high hair in a white palace skirt and a veil came slowly, stepping on a phoenix. She had the temperament of a goddess of Luo River descending to the earth, with light steps and dusty silk stockings.

“It’s actually ‘Luan Bing Fairy’… This girl is here too.”

Fang Xi’s heart moved.

This ‘Fairy Luan Bing’ is the supreme elder of ‘Qing Yin Fang’, a sect that has achieved the state of transformation. The White Bone Mountain where ‘Qing Yin Fang’ is located is located to the north of Xuan Ming Yuan. She has contacts with Qing He Zi and the ancestor of the Wang family.

Moreover, they all belong to the Yulong Sect.

Fang Xi felt that this woman was quite capable of dancing with her sleeves.

In addition to this woman, there are also some well-known or unknown incarnation monks, probably monks from other places, who are attracted by this grand auction that takes place once every three hundred years.

When they arrived at the venue, an ancient stone palace, Fang Xi’s mind suddenly became awe-inspiring.

He looked up suddenly and saw a monk in a silver robe with ordinary features falling down.

The hidden spiritual pressure on his body actually made all the gods change color.

“Return to the Void Monk!”

“It’s not the old dragon from the Yulong Sect…”

“Could this person be ‘Purple Wind Spirit Lord’… He is a famous independent cultivator in our Star Region. He has never had a fixed place to stay and likes to travel… I didn’t expect that he would be nearby.”

Each monk had a look of shock on his face.

“It turns out to be a Return to Void cultivator.”

Fang Xi felt awe in his heart, but he actually had some anticipation for this auction, so he walked into the stone hall.

There were actually two cultivators standing in the stone hall. Both of them were in the middle stage of the Spiritualization Stage. They said expressionlessly, “If you want to enter the auction, please verify your capital…”

Fang Xi was speechless for a while, but still handed over a storage ring.

After verification, the other party nodded and let him go.

Fang Xi entered the stone hall and found it very spacious, divided into many private rooms. Every time a guest entered a private room, a layer of hazy light would light up, covering the entire room, making it difficult for outsiders to see anything.

He smiled slightly, chose one and walked in.
