Cultivating Immortality in a World of Chaos - Chapter 719
[Chapter 717: Mountain-carrying Turtle]
Thousands of feet above the sky.
In the endless sea of clouds in the sky, a huge creature was carrying a mountain and cruising leisurely in the white clouds.
If you look closer, you will find that it is a huge “mountain-carrying turtle”!
Its limbs move leisurely, stirring up a large amount of heaven and earth energy each time, but its back is very stable.
Many pavilions and towers were built on top of that mountain.
This is a sixth-level monster!
Occasionally, streams of light fell on the back of the mountain-carrying tortoise and entered the attics one by one.
…
Fang Xi controlled a beam of light and stared at a living map in his hand.
I saw a huge red dot moving on the map.
“No wonder Chisongzi said he would never go wrong… He would definitely not make a mistake with such a huge turtle.”
“This underground trade fair was actually held in heaven.”
Fang Xi was speechless for a while.
He had asked about the underground trade fair before, and Chisongzi gave him this map. As long as he followed the map and found the red spot, he could enter the trade fair.
Fang Xi naturally recognized that this kind of map was a disposable magic weapon and would automatically become scrapped after a period of use.
Chi Songzi was seriously injured and Guang Qianjian’s swordsmanship was damaged. They both wanted to go into seclusion and had no interest in the exchange meeting, so they did not come with him.
For Fang Xi, this is actually a good thing.
He performed the ‘Three Phases Annihilation Technique’ and transformed into a demon cultivator. He was also covered in a black robe that enveloped his entire body, leaving only a pair of eyes visible.
After doing all this, Fang Xi flew towards the giant turtle leisurely.
When he approached, the mountain turtle obviously noticed Fang Xi, but did not move.
This may be because he realized Fang Xi’s identity as a Fanxu cultivator, or it may be that he sensed the special aura on the map.
Fang Xi landed on the top of the mountain and walked into an attic.
In the attic, there was actually only one puppet with two buns on her head, looking like a maid. She bowed and said, “Welcome, distinguished guest. Would you like to go directly to the venue, or taste the spiritual tea here?”
“Go straight to the venue!”
Fang Xi made an old voice.
“please!”
The maid immediately led the way.
There is actually a passage in the attic.
After entering, they found that the passage was connected in all directions. After walking for a while, according to Fang Xi’s estimation, they should have entered the interior of the giant peak carried by the mountain-carrying turtle.
There is a huge cave in the mountain, where hundreds of monks have gathered.
Some of them sat on the cushions with their eyes closed to rest, while others gathered in groups of three or five, whispering to each other… Some impatient ones even started private transactions.
In the void, there is a faint and elegant sandalwood scent, which makes people feel relaxed and happy.
Fang Xi took a quick look at it and didn’t take it seriously.
At this moment, his eyes swept across and his expression moved.
Most of the monks present covered their faces, but a small number showed their faces openly – as to whether they were their true faces, it was hard to say.
The cultivation base of these monks is not low either, the worst of them has reached the stage of Divine Transformation.
Fang Xi couldn’t help feeling quite satisfied. He also chose a cushion in a secluded corner to sit down and began to close his eyes to rest.
Ding ding!
After an unknown amount of time had passed, Fang Xi heard a low bell ring.
When he opened his eyes, he saw an extremely handsome young monk, holding an ancient silver bell with various seal characters on its surface, standing on the trading table in the middle of many cushions.
The bell sound just now should have been made by this bell. It can be considered a pretty good treasure.
The handsome young man’s aura was around the early stage of returning to the void. After looking around, he couldn’t help but reveal a satisfied look: “Welcome all Taoist friends to the underground trade fair of Xuanwu Pavilion… This trade fair will still follow the previous rules. There is no limit on the identity of the guests and the origin of the treasures. The money and goods will be settled on the spot, and we will have nothing to do with each other afterwards… If there are those who violate the rules, you can all attack them together!”
“First there will be a small auction, and then there will be a free trade session…”
The handsome young man clapped his hands, and immediately a puppet came forward.
Judging from his aura, he had actually reached the fifth level, which made Fang Xi look sideways.
This is a humanoid puppet with two huge axes flashing with fierce light on its back. Every step it takes is very heavy, and it holds a tray in its hands.
On the tray, there is a strange flower the size of a bowl that sparkles in five colors.
“One Ten Thousand Years Thousand Feathers Flower! It can be used as the main ingredient for some sixth-level elixirs. The starting price is one fairy jade…”
The handsome young man smiled and spoke.
Immediately, a childish voice sounded: “Two fairy jades! Hehe… I didn’t expect to encounter such a rare spiritual medicine here. Grandma’s furnace of elixirs will finally be ready…”
Fang Xi looked towards the source of the sound and saw that the owner of the childish voice was actually a little girl in a purple double-breasted shirt. Although she had a childish face and a short stature, she was sitting cross-legged and looked very old.
“It’s actually Grandma Baicao Yam!”
Immediately, a cultivator lowered his voice and said, “This woman is not easy to deal with. She is also a sixth-level alchemist with a wide range of friends, that’s all…”
The cultivators did not fight for it and let the old medicine lady take the Thousand Feather Flower at the price of two fairy jades.
The handsome young man’s expression did not change at all.
For Xuanwu Pavilion, one piece of fairy jade has actually paid off.
“The second lot – the rare treasure ‘Ban Lan Ji’!”
He smiled and introduced the second treasure, which was a rusty long halberd: “This halberd comes from the overseas immortal palace that has been making a lot of noise recently. It is very suitable for body cultivators… Maybe it contains some secrets of the immortal palace. The starting price is thirty immortal jades!”
…
Fang Xi watched coldly from the sidelines, and when he saw that this rare halberd was finally sold for the price of fifty-seven fairy jades, he had a clearer understanding of his own financial situation.
Next, various rare treasures and powerful martial arts inheritances appeared one by one, but Fang Xi was not very interested.
His magical weapons and supernatural powers have already reached the highest level.
Among the techniques he practiced, the ‘Art of Withering and Flourishing’ was inherited from the earthly immortals and was very important. The ‘True Demonic Art of the Emperor of Transformation and Freedom to Control All Spirits’ was also suspected to be inherited from the heavenly demons.
Even though the ‘Heavenly Demon Killing Immortal Strategy’, which has a low presence, is also a top-level skill of the demon race, it also comes with the ‘Ten Thousand Demons Armor’ and other secret techniques for transforming disasters.
Therefore, Fang Xi did not take the several sets of skills and magical powers that appeared in this auction seriously.
But he still watched very attentively.
After a high-level spirit beast egg was auctioned, the handsome young man ordered the puppet to bring out a tray.
On the tray was a somewhat ancient and incomplete jade slip.
“Sixth-level talisman inheritance – Small Void Transfer Talisman!”
The handsome young man spoke in a serious voice.
“What… is it the Small Void Transfer Secret Talisman?” A Return to Void cultivator who was shrouded in a yellowish glow spoke excitedly, “Is it the Void Secret Talisman that can transfer thousands of miles at once, which even Return to Void cultivators can’t catch up with? I heard that many juniors have relied on this talisman to escape from the hands of Transformation and Return to Void cultivators…”
“Unfortunately, it is not the ‘Great Void Teleportation Talisman’ as rumored… Such a secret talisman can teleport a distance of millions of miles at once, and its level is extremely high, not restricted by many prohibitions and void magic weapons. Even if you encounter a combined cultivator, it is an excellent life-saving item.”
Another old woman sighed.
“Okay, Lingguizi, how do you sell this item? What’s the reserve price?”
Immediately, a Fanxu cultivator started shouting impatiently.
When cultivators reach a high level, most of them will choose to study one of the hundred arts of cultivating immortals. The art of talismans is the mainstream among the mainstreams because it is easy to get started and is relatively universal.
Among the high-level cultivators present today, quite a few are proficient in the art of talismans.
However, no matter which art of cultivating immortals you choose, it is easy to learn but difficult to master.
Fang Xi was a little surprised that there were actually quite a few sixth-level talisman masters in the field.
Of course, if it is a genuine ‘Small Void Transfer Talisman’, as long as you can refine it after understanding it, you will be able to recover your investment sooner or later and make a lot of money.
“Wait a minute, everyone… I haven’t finished yet.”
At this time, Ling Guizi smiled and said, “This sixth-level secret talisman inheritance is incomplete… about 30% is missing. I believe that all of you talisman masters will be able to complete it with your own skills and knowledge… Even if you can’t complete it, it will be able to greatly enhance your talisman foundation.”
“It’s actually incomplete!”
“It’s ridiculous that the incompleteness has reached 30%. If a talisman is slightly wrong in drawing, it will self-destruct, let alone 30%?”
Many of the talisman masters who had spoken earlier were filled with indignation.
But Fang Xi felt that these people would definitely make a bid.
The only reason for suppressing prices at this time is to try to lower the price as much as possible.
“It’s okay. Fortunately, I have a lot of immortal jades… The small void transfer talisman is a phoenix seal script talisman. With my void attainments, I may be able to complete it…”
Fang Xi’s comprehension of the Way of the Void even surpassed that of the combined Heavenly Phoenix, which is one of the reasons why his outer incarnation was able to escape.
“This sixth-level secret talisman inheritance has a base price of thirty immortal jades…”
As soon as Ling Guizi finished speaking with a smile, he heard Fang Xi’s offer: “Sixty fairy jades!”
At this moment, a large number of talisman masters glared at Fang Xi.
Fifty pieces of immortal jade are enough for a mere incomplete sixth-level Void Talisman inheritance. Is this person just a fool?
But…
They didn’t know that Fang Xi now still had some thoughts about fishing.
After all, it would cost a lot of immortal jade today, so if someone came to give it to him, wouldn’t it be a good thing?
At least among the cultivators present, he had not seen any powerful people at the fusion level.
When they merged together, they were not afraid at all.
“Sixty Immortal Jades for the third time, congratulations to this fellow Taoist!”
After several dozen breaths, Ling Guizi said with a smile on his face: “Please come up to the stage to trade.”
Fang Xi turned into a beam of magic light and came to the high platform amid many people’s gazes. He threw out a small pile of fairy jade and picked up the ancient jade slip.
With a sweep of his spiritual sense, he saw a method for refining a ‘Small Void Transfer Talisman’.
However, since the jade slip is incomplete, there are still many dark places inside.
In terms of damage, it is indeed about 30%.
“Yes, this is exactly what I want.”
He nodded slightly and returned to his seat, seemingly having no interest in the subsequent auction.
The finale of the small auction was indeed quite good, with the “Liang Yi Po Xu Dan” appearing. However, for Fang Xi, it really did not arouse any interest in him.
He just sat there and watched the group of Divine Transformation cultivators gritting their teeth while carefully competing with the Return to Void old monster for the precious breakthrough opportunity…
In the end, the ‘Liang Yi Po Xu Dan’ finally fell into the hands of a cultivator in the late stage of Return to the Void.
Even in the later stages of the auction, those who raised the price were all Return to Void cultivators.
Even if a Divine Transformation cultivator had so many immortal jades, he would not dare to take them out.
‘This is the sadness of low-level cultivators… Even if they encounter a chance to break through, they cannot compete with high-level cultivators… Although high-level cultivators may not need it themselves, who doesn’t have relatives, friends, disciples, etc.?’
Fang Xi sighed inwardly, and saw Ling Guizi’s face glowing red, obviously having benefited a lot from the previous auction. He now bowed to the groups around him and said, “Next is the free trade phase for everyone. But I would like to remind you that after the payment and goods are settled, if any problems are found, Xuanwu Pavilion will not be responsible…”
After Ling Guizi went down, a Fanxu cultivator came to the stage and snapped his fingers.
A spirit beast bag was sacrificed, and immediately a dragon rushed out.
“roar!”
This dragon was still somewhat unruly, but when it saw so many cultivators present, it lowered its head sickly.
Fang Xi realized that this beast had already undergone magical changes to change its size as desired, otherwise its size might have exceeded a thousand feet!
Read the error-free version on 6Ⅹ9Ⅹ bookⅩ bar! 6Ⅹ9 book bar first publishes a novel.
“A fifth-level black dragon.”
The voice of the Returning Void cultivator was very calm, as if it carried a soothing power, but it was hard to tell whether it was a man or a woman, which was very strange: “This beast has been tamed for a hundred years, and its wildness has been polished away. I have refined a Blood Soul Token… If you fellow Taoists buy it back, whether you use it to guard the cave or as a mount, or give it to your disciples or protect your family, it will be great… I only accept transactions of fairy jade and elixirs that increase magic power!”
For the returning cultivators, they can refine the “immortal energy” in the immortal jade to enhance their cultivation and to refine treasures.
Although this would certainly be a bit of a waste, the effect would not be as good as swallowing a sixth-level elixir that increases mana.
But there is no doubt that fairy jade and elixirs are the most popular items in the transactions of returning to the void cultivators!
‘The fairy jade veins… seem to be non-existent in the earthly fairy world, and can only be mined in small quantities from the ruins of the fairy mansion. In other words… even if the fairy jade is not used, it is still valuable to keep it.’
Fang Xi’s heart moved, but he didn’t say anything.
He simply looked down upon a mere fifth-order dragon.
On the other hand, another old woman from Fanxu said in a hoarse voice: “This dragon looks familiar, but is it from the Yulong Sect? The price for such a born rebel is too high…”
Since the destruction of the Dragon Controlling Sect, quite a few dragons have escaped, resulting in the presence of many dragon monsters in the Starry Domain.
The Fanxu cultivator who was selling the black dragon smiled bitterly in his heart.
This divine dragon did come from the Dragon Taming Sect, which is actually a disadvantage.
After all, the dragon of the Dragon Taming Sect has a history of rebellion! Who knows if this dragon will secretly learn some secret methods to resist the beast taming technique?
This is the risk!
However, the other party was willing to lower the price, which showed that he was still somewhat tempted. He immediately communicated with the old woman through telepathy.
Not long after, the old woman came on stage and threw out a storage bag.
The Return to Void cultivator took a quick look with his spiritual sense and was very satisfied, so he handed the Blood Soul Token to the old woman.
After both parties completed the transaction, they flew down the platform and left directly without even sitting down.
When Fang Xi saw this, he couldn’t help but secretly praise the man’s foresight and decisiveness.
He was extremely fast and got to the trading table before several rays of light.
“I have three ‘Luoyun Xuandan’ here, which can increase the magic power of the returning cultivators…”
“In addition, there is a batch of fairy jade!”
Before Fang Xi finished speaking, he saw many Return to Void cultivators tremble slightly, obviously knowing that his trading items had successfully attracted the attention of these people.
After all, it is the most common thing among Return to Void cultivators.
He smiled and said, “If you want to exchange for the feathers of the three spiritual birds, the Dapeng, the peacock, and the swan, they must be at least level five. If the feathers you bring out are more valuable, I am willing to make up the difference with fairy jade…”
Many of the returning to the void shook their heads slightly, obviously they did not have such materials.
“What a coincidence! I have swan and peacock feathers here… They are of the lower sixth grade, which should be enough to meet your needs.”
A soft and sweet voice sounded.
Fang Xi was a little surprised, and then he saw a female cultivator who had reached the level of a spirit being walk slowly up to the trading table.
She was wearing a veil, and with a wave of her bare hands, two jade boxes appeared. She smiled and said, “Senior, can you take a look…”
Fang Xi looked at the jade box and flicked his right index finger lightly.
A true demonic aura emerged, and the restrictions on it exploded immediately.
Seeing this, the female cultivator’s expression seemed to become more serious.
Fang Xi didn’t care about all this. He opened the jade box, and a light flashed in his eyes. He suddenly used the “Duobao Pupil Technique”.
Inside the box, there was a dark green feather with an eye-shaped pattern at the end.
“It is indeed a peacock feather. Although it only came from a sixth-order low-grade mutant demon bird, it has finally awakened some of the five elements of peacock blood…”
Fang Xi nodded slightly, then checked another swan feather and found that it barely met the requirements.
The feathers of such spiritual birds do not need to be plucked from their true bodies. After all, there are many monsters with mutated bloodlines in the world of earthly immortals.
If I could awaken some of my ancestors’ true blood, it would be almost enough.
He pondered for a moment, and said to the masked female cultivator: “These two items can be exchanged for two ‘Luoyun Xuandan’…”
“I, as a junior, do not have access to the elixirs of my seniors, so I’ll calculate it in immortal jade…”
The fairy smiled sweetly. Even though Fang Xi couldn’t see her face clearly, he could feel that she had an outstanding and calm temperament. She must be a pretty lady with a stunning appearance.
“Can.”
Fang Xi reached into his sleeve and threw a storage bag directly over.
The female cultivator took a quick look with her spiritual sense, bowed expressionlessly, and left the trading table.
“No one is trading anymore?”
Fang Xi asked, wanting to leave with a little disappointment.
At this moment, a strange voice sounded: “I have a spiritual bird material in my hand…”
A Return to Void cultivator stood up and came to Fang Xi.
The other person was wearing a grey robe and had an aura of decay about him. His face was not concealed, revealing an old face full of wrinkles, as if he would die in the next moment.
“It’s actually Ku Xiuzi!”
“An old freak… He is a loner with a strange personality. He is not easy to mess with…”
Some Return to Void cultivators communicated with each other through their spiritual consciousness.
“please……”
Fang Xi bowed slightly, and saw the old man throw out a jade box.
He opened it gently and heard the sound of wind whistling in his ears.
“Such a strong wind spiritual power… No, it seems to be mixed with water spiritual power. This is…”
Fang Xi’s eyes flashed with a strange color. He looked at the green feather in the jade box and said uncertainly: “This thing seems to have some relationship with the giant Kun in Xuanming Abyss…”
“Hehe, fellow Daoist, you have an extraordinary eye. This feather is what was left when the giant Kun transformed into a roc…” Ku Xiuzi said regretfully, “In terms of rank, I’m afraid it’s already quasi-seventh rank…”
‘really……’
Fang Xi reached out and touched it, having already made up his mind. As long as the price was not too outrageous, he would try his best to get this quasi-seventh-level Kunpeng feather.
He already had a genuine seventh-level Sky Phoenix Feather in his hand. If he added this quasi-seventh-level Kunpeng Feather, the power of the Five Fires and Seven Birds Fan should be able to reach a higher level.
At least, it can be equivalent to 70% to 80% of the power of the fragment of the rare treasure of the Immortal Mansion, right?
“How about three Luoyun Xuandan?”
Fang Xi used his spiritual consciousness to bargain with Ku Xiuzi.
“Of course I want all of these elixirs that can help one return to the void. Besides, I also want a hundred pieces of fairy jade…” Ku Xiuzi opened his mouth loudly.
“This is impossible…”
Fang Xi immediately refused: “This bird feather can only be used to refine a spiritual treasure… If it is to be upgraded to the sixth level, I don’t know how many precious materials will be required. It is not worth this much…”
After a heated argument, he also threw out a storage bag and a jade bottle.
Ku Xiuzi took it directly, nodded slightly, and returned to his own cushion.
Fang Xi put the Kunpeng feather into the storage ring, and with a thought in his mind, he did not return to the cushion, but flew directly out of the underground cave.
After walking through a long passage, he flew out of a palace and left the range of the mountain-carrying turtle.
‘In fact, leaving the venue early is also a sign of guilt…’
‘Plus, I am only at the initial stage of Return to Void… Will there be a Tribulation Cultivator at the middle or even late stage of Return to Void who will come and take advantage of me?’
“After all, my transactions were quite high-profile and showed off my wealth…”
Fang Xi slowed down his escape, feeling a little expectant.
And in his sleeve, the ‘Seal of Life and Death’ was already ready to go.
After cultivating the ‘Taishang Beidou Siming Divine Light’, ordinary returning to the void cultivators were no longer taken seriously by him.
If there are several Return to Void Tribulation cultivators coming, then they will be given immortal jades!
Unfortunately, even after flying a million miles away, Fang Xi still hadn’t seen any trace of the Tribulation Cultivator…
“Alas, am I really too greedy?”
He couldn’t help but sigh.
Even in the earthly immortal world, a cultivator who has reached the state of spiritual transformation can hide in the countryside and become a local tyrant.
Not to mention the Return to Void cultivators, they can establish a force and become somewhat famous in a region.
And the life span is ten thousand years, eternal and carefree.
It is ridiculous for such a cultivator to have murderous intentions just for the little things he has revealed.
In fact… unless there is a great opportunity like the emergence of an overseas immortal palace, there should be nothing that can make high-level cultivators fight for their lives.
Therefore, Fang Xi’s fishing plan failed miserably.
“If you can’t catch them by fishing, you can use force fishing… But if I can’t attract a Tribulation Cultivator, I can’t become one myself, right?”
Fang Xi asked himself if he had a bottom line and would not do such a thing.
“pity……”
He let out a long sigh, turned into a streak of light, and disappeared.
Now the feathers of the seven birds, namely the phoenix, blue luan, great peng, peacock, white crane, swan and owl, have been collected. Adding to the previous accumulation, I can almost refine the ‘Five Fires and Seven Birds Fan’!
