The iron-eating beast looked like it had never seen the world before. It even forgot its destination and turned to walk towards a large bamboo forest.

Only with Lin Xiang's guidance did they finally find the correct direction and walk out of the Shiwan Mountains.

"This land gave birth to a cave seed and a mother of star iron ore. It seems to be a place blessed with natural beauty. How come it has never been discovered?"

Lin Xiang knew that not only he, but also the monsters and cultivators had underestimated the outer area of ​​the Ten Thousand Mountains.

He decided to find an opportunity to explore this large area outside, perhaps there are more good things in the making.

He turned his attention back to the other four items in his hand. Each one was a good thing, the kind that would make everyone rush to auction it off.

But Lin Xiang can use it himself and doesn't want to sell it at all.

[Five-Colored Divine Mud (Fake): Ancient immortals imitated Nuwa's Heaven-Repairing Divine Stone and refined it into divine mud. It is a top-grade refining material and can also be used for the cultivation of spiritual herbs and roots.]

If Lin Xiang was strong enough, there would be no problem in using this magic mud to create a powerful magic weapon embryo.

But now, it can only be used in the Universe Cave to help the Thunder God Apricot grow faster.

The Thunder God Apricot has become the spiritual root that suppresses the cave heaven. The faster it grows, the faster the cave heaven will expand, which can help Lin Xiang obtain more spiritual energy.

Next are two weapons, one is the magic weapon-level Ruyi Pearl, and the other is the top-grade magic weapon-level Yuxiang Flute.

[Ruyi Pearl: A low-grade magical weapon that can change size and emit a dazzling light to attack enemies.]

[Yuxiang Flute: Top-grade magical instrument, increases the power of musical skills by 50%, has a chance of critical hit.]

The wish-fulfilling jewel is a small-looking bead. If its light is absorbed, it will be just an ordinary pearl.

But if you inject spiritual energy into it, it will quickly grow larger.

Lin Xiang used his spiritual power tentatively, trying to explore the limits of the Ruyi Pearl.

As a result, after injecting half of the spiritual power into the body, it was still not full. However, the size of this gem was already as big as a house, and it looked particularly terrifying floating in the air.

"It's worthy of being a magic weapon, the upper limit is very good."

He didn't want to continue injecting spiritual power, so he let the orb fall into the open space next to him.

Boom!

A huge vibration came from the side, and a big hole was smashed directly into the open space. Even spider-web-like cracks appeared around it, forcing the iron-eating beast to run forward a few steps quickly.

If it hits a person or a monster, the only outcome is that they will be smashed to pieces!

Then Lin Xiang tried another use for it.

The shrunken Ruyi Pearl suddenly emitted a dazzling light, which made his eyes tear up. He couldn't help but turn his head and rub his eyes frantically before he felt better.

This is absolutely effective if used for sneak attacks, especially in the dark, it is easy to blind the enemy's eyes!

As for the Yuxiang flute, it is a bit useless. It looks very good and is made entirely of white jade. It feels very warm in the hand.

But Lin Xiang only knows one musical skill, which is the sheng skill passed down by the ancestors of the Wang family - Phoenix Spreading Wings.

"Let's try to play the flute later. Let's see if I can do it first."

The last "Dragon Strike" is a spell-type attack skill.

[Dragon Strike: Master Ge Tianshi gained a skill by watching dragons fight, and used his spiritual power to simulate the dragon's form. The more solid the dragon, the stronger the attack. It is compatible with spiritual power of all attributes.]

Lin Xiang learned the skill without saying a word, and then used his spiritual power to perform it.

When using the skill for the first time, you actually need to first form the shape of a dragon.

The more real it is, the more it can demonstrate the power of the dragon, and even gain a hint of the dragon's breath.

Others may not know much about dragons, but there is a black dragon in Dongshan Village, and Lin Xiang is very familiar with its image.

Then, this ball of spiritual power gradually took shape under the control of his spiritual consciousness and turned into a pocket-sized black dragon.

It even exudes a strong aura of a dragon.

The iron-eating beasts that were originally walking silently below became panicked because of the sudden appearance of the dragon's breath, and even lowered their voices to let out low roars from deep in their throats.

In terms of bloodline, the Iron Eater wasn't much worse than the Dragon; after all, the Demon God Chi You had chosen them as mounts. However, this Iron Eater was currently too weak, and it couldn't find any suitable iron ore in the wild, so its overall strength wasn't up to par.

Seeing this, Lin Xiang knocked out his formed dragon.

This black dragon made of spiritual power looked vivid, even swinging its tail in the air, and then suddenly plunged into a cliff.

The cliff wall was originally very strong due to being exposed to the sun and rain, but it was easily penetrated by the dragon as if it did not encounter any obstacles.

Just when Lin Xiang thought that this skill was a penetrating damage, a muffled sound came from inside, and the entire cliff rock shattered into pieces and began to fall down with a clang.

"Not bad, not bad. It looks very powerful. It's only level 1. It should be even more powerful when it reaches the maximum level."

He was very satisfied with this skill. Not only could he use it himself, but he could also sell it to players and even give them a living reference example.

From now on, any player who can use this skill will know that he must be from Dongshan Village!

Lin Xiang even had a bit of a bad taste in his mouth. He pondered, "If Mo Jiao saw players all over the mountain fighting in its image, I wonder what it would think."

Now is not the time to think about these things. We have already wasted too much time. We have to select the members of the escort patrol team after we arrive at the market.

Tomorrow is the day of the auction. Actually, he doesn't expect these things to bring him much profit, because the potential effect has been achieved.

More and more monks came from all directions, and several inns were already full, and even many small courtyards were rented out.

Some people even asked about the rental prices of storefronts in the market, and some people have already set up stalls in the street stall area.

Players will also go there to take a look when they are not leveling up, completing tasks, or becoming apprentices.

As long as there are people, there will be business and vitality!

The auction is just an introduction, just like inviting celebrities to perform at the opening of a shopping mall. It is purely a way to attract attention.

You can put together a patrol team first and then recruit more people later.

"Dude, you need to speed up. You're too slow to be a mount."

Lin Xiang patted the iron-eating beast's butt to make it speed up.

Who would have thought that the iron-eating beast's round body would move forward quickly with its feet turned inward for less than a few hundred meters, and then twist slowly, without any haste or slowness.

No matter how Lin Xiang urged him, his pace remained consistent.

Lin Xiang had no idea how Chi You managed to charge on the iron-eating beast. This guy seemed lazy to the core.

When passing by a tree, he used the Fire Extinction Divine Light to cut off a branch and then shaved it into a fishing rod.

Fishing rods are usually hung with baits such as earthworms. The fishing rod here is hung with a piece of medium-grade cold iron ore, which comes from the mines in the black dragon's lair.

It’s another delicacy I’ve never tasted before!

The iron-eating beast opened its mouth and waved its front paws to try to grab the cold iron ore, but its hands were too short, so it jumped forward all the way.

It tried several times to throw off its master, but Lin Xiang was as steady as a rock.

After being tempted by the food, the iron-eating beast moved at an unusual speed and soon arrived at the bank of Longxi River.

There are already players here doing tasks such as clearing land, fishing, cutting trees, and planting.

When they saw the jumping black and white ball, they stopped what they were doing and ran over.

"Oh my god! A national treasure!"

"Where did Lao Lin trick a panda into coming from?"

"This mount is amazing. I want one too."

"What is Ji Ling doing? Why is there a stone hanging in front?"

"Stop fishing and come watch Lao Lin catch the panda!"

Players sent carrier pigeons to call their friends and ask them to come over and take a look.

These players completely forgot about their mission and only had eyes for the bouncing glutinous rice dumpling, even though it looked slightly larger than in real life.

Of course, Lin Xiang could hear all the surprised noises from the players. He was extremely happy. It was obviously just a Qi Refining Stage monster mount, but he was happier than getting a magic weapon.

He could have directly used divine power to teleport back to the land temple, but he chose to bump around on the back of the iron-eating beast and waste time. Wasn't it just to see the envious and jealous eyes of the other players?

At this time, the Longxi River was much wider due to heavy rain upstream.

It was difficult for the iron-eating beast to jump over directly, so Lin Xiang used his ability as the land god to pump the surging river water into the air, forming a transparent, spacious and solid water bridge!

The entire bridge is in a flowing state, joining the circulation of Longxi River.

The setting sun shines on the water bridge, making it look crystal clear, even reflecting rainbow spots on the ground, which makes players who are close by stunned.

If this is not a god, then what else can be a god?

The iron-eating beast was originally a little worried about the weight of the water bridge, but after hearing the message from its master, it felt relieved and boldly climbed onto the water bridge with its front and back paws, walking forward step by step.

It walked to the top of the water bridge, looked at the transparent bridge surface curiously, and even poked the bridge surface with its claws. It had never seen anything like this before.

If it weren't for the fact that he had consumed too much divine power in detecting the mineral veins before, Lin Xiang would have wanted to condense a few auspicious clouds on the feet of the iron-eating beast to carry him back.

"Oh my god, Lao Lin is absolutely amazing. He's so awesome!"

“If there is no road, build one yourself. If there is no bridge, create one with water!”

"That mount looks pretty powerful. See those claws?"

"You're kidding! A level 18 monster can tear you to pieces with one claw. Send you back to the land temple and wait for resurrection."

"Where did Lao Lin catch the iron-eating beast? I want one too."

"Case solved, case solved! This guy is the ancestor of the panda. No wonder Lao Lin put a mineral in front to make it run."

Sometimes being able to fly is nothing, taking each step like this is just as shocking.

When the iron-eating beast came down from the water bridge, the flowing water bridge collapsed, merged with the river water again, and then flowed downstream.

Lin Xiang held a jade flute in his hand, his white robe rustling in the evening breeze. The afterglow of the setting sun fell on him and the iron-eating beast, gradually turning into a black dot and disappearing from the players' sight.

These people were almost stunned. It took them a long time to react and then they immediately followed.

The scene just now was exactly the moment that best reflected the image of a god in their minds. In their imagination, a god should be so free and easy, not flying around on a flying sword.

"I'm going to post this online, it's so cool!"

"Lao Lin will definitely have more fans, hahahaha."

"I feel sorry for the players of the public beta test. They can't be born in Dongshan Village like us, hahahaha."

"If Lao Lin suddenly ascends to heaven tomorrow, I won't be surprised."

"This is the immortal hero in my mind!"

"I have to go over and see what's going on."

The players didn't care about this short period of time and ran into the market town.

…

The Huanyu Market became extremely lively. All the monks who wanted to participate in the auction came to check out the situation in advance to avoid any unexpected situations tomorrow.

Some other low-level Qi Refining cultivators came to see the excitement and look for opportunities to make money.

Some people originally entered the Shiwan Mountains to kill monsters and collect spiritual medicines, and before entering, they checked out the Xiandao Huanyu Market. If it was reliable, they could sell the raw materials from the monsters directly here when they came out, without having to go to the Taichang Market dozens of miles away.

The sects that run Taichang Market naturally don't want a new market to steal their business and customers.

However, the people from Tianjian Sect, Wanmiao Pavilion and even Yueying Palace had witnessed Lin Xiang's incredible strength, and they even guessed that he was at the level of a wandering immortal, so they didn't dare to act rashly.

If you can't beat them, choose to join!

These sects have rented stores here.

The ordinary monks didn't react when they saw Lin Xiang riding on the iron-eating beast, but the players were extremely surprised.

Some people even waited and watched on the street in advance after receiving messages from their friends via carrier pigeons.

After Lin Xiang returned to the land temple, he slowly stood up from the back of the iron-eating beast. The medium-grade cold iron ore that had been hanging on it all the way finally fell into his front paw.

So the players watched in fear as this cute and silly guy held the ore and gnawed on it.

"I seriously doubt it will cause indigestion."

"Is chewing rocks really okay? Does that count as animal abuse?"

"Its teeth are really sharp and its bite is really strong."

"Hahahaha, quickly record this scene and show it to the animals in the zoo. Let them see what our ancestors eat."

"That's too mean!"

"Although I know it's a bear, the bite force is incredible. I seriously doubt my bones can withstand a bite from it."

"Can I come over and touch it?"

The iron-eating beast was half leaning against the courtyard wall of the land temple, biting the ore with difficulty, knowing that it would gain a lot of benefits after swallowing this grade of ore.

Low-grade spirit iron ore can be dealt with easily, but medium-grade spirit iron ore requires a lot of effort to gnaw and chew.

Lin Xiang did not drive the players away, but picked up the registration list copied by the temple keeper Wang Xiuyuan.

This was the time they had agreed upon, and the priest would announce the list at the hour of You.

Most of the monks who had registered arrived outside the land temple on time to wait for news. This was the first time they saw the mysterious sacrificial spirit.

Before this, everyone had already met Tan Mengru, the temple keeper and the person in charge of the spiritual state.

Now that the most important founder of the Universal Market has appeared, the few Foundation Establishment cultivators around him have all turned their attention to him, wanting to see who he is.

Countless eyes converged on Lin Xiang, and spiritual senses scanned back and forth.

However, these spiritual senses could not scan Lin Xiang at all. He was clearly standing there, and even his shadow was there, but the spiritual senses told the cultivators that there was nothing there.

"Hey, this sacrificial spirit is quite powerful, and the divine sense can't even detect it."

"I told you, if he wasn't powerful enough, would Yueying Palace be willing to rent a house here to do business and recruit disciples?"

"I don't know what level the sacrificial spirit is at. Could it be a real person in the Golden Core or Nascent Soul stage?"

"I heard that his strength is unfathomable. There are rumors that he is a wandering immortal who failed to transcend the tribulation."

Cultivation families, independent cultivators, members of sects, and even the sacrificial spirits from three other towns all came, but they really couldn't find out any information about Lin Xiang.

At this moment, a sword light suddenly flew out from the roof opposite the land temple!

The sword light was like a rainbow, and the cold sword energy made the surrounding monks tremble a little. They had no idea who suddenly attacked.

Just from the body's instinctive sensing, they knew that he was definitely a master. Both the players and the monks immediately hid aside, fearing that they would be affected by the battle.

Lin Xiang had actually discovered this red-named swordsman a long time ago.

There are quite a few red dots and yellow dots on his dojo, but the most numerous are green dots.

The red dot represents hostility towards Lin Xiang, the yellow dot represents neutrality, and the green dot naturally represents close alliance.

This kind of light spot is not static. The red dot may turn yellow, and the neutral dot may turn red under the influence of a momentary thought. The original alliance may turn red under the temptation of interests.

It is actually a dynamic state of change.

Lin Xiang didn't take action directly because he wanted to see what these people were up to.

He knew that enemies of these levels would not pose any threat to him in his own dojo, and they could be used as chickens to scare the monkeys.

If these enemies secretly attack other players or humans, Mo Jiao will sense the murderous intent and take action in advance.

If the other party only has the intention to kill but does not take action, he cannot kill the other party based on his murderous intention.

Now is a good opportunity.

Lin Xiang stood alone at the door of the land temple. There were no other cultivators around him, and the Black Dragon and the Iron-eating Beast were not around.

The long-planned sword light flew towards Lin Xiang, carrying with it the breath of annihilation and death.

The swordsman was wearing a black hood, as if to hide his identity.

"There's an assassin!"

"Damn it, get out of the way."

"Don't stand in the way, hide!"

"Someone is trying to assassinate the sacrificial spirit!"

Ordinary monks don't want to get into entanglement and danger, so they try to hide whenever possible.

The players had enough confidence in Lin Xiang. They just didn't want to be killed by the aftermath, nor did they want to be resurrected in the land temple, so they retreated to the flower beds on both sides of the road and continued to wait and see.

However, the cultivators in the Foundation Establishment Stage and the representatives of the major forces had serious expressions. They just stood by and watched without offering any help.

It just so happened that someone was there to help them test the strength of the sacrificial spirit.

Lin Xiang was not nervous or changed at all at this time. The target he had been waiting for to make an example of finally appeared at his doorstep.

The sword was moving very fast and was about to hit him, but it stopped strangely and could not move forward at all.

The black-robed swordsman holding the sword was also frozen in place, his body frozen in the air.

"How dare you cause trouble in the Huanyu Market!"

Lin Xiang shouted, then stretched out his palm from his long sleeves and gently pressed down in the air.

The sword light broke into pieces and then dissipated.

Immediately afterwards, a palm print fell from the sky and knocked the black-robed swordsman directly into the mud, leaving only his head outside.

The players and residents of Dongshan Village who were watching from the side inexplicably felt a sense of familiarity.

The Great Zhou cultivator who attacked the Five Elements Wu Earth Formation seemed to have been suppressed so easily.

Feng Jianan broke out in a cold sweat on his back and couldn't help but recall the situation when he was suppressed.

Now as a bystander, I can feel how terrifying the power of the sacrificial spirit is. He suppressed the swordsman in the foundation-building stage into the soil without any effort. How could I be so brave as to attack him at that time!

The long-planned assassination ended in failure.

The black-robed swordsman had no time to react and only his head was left on the ground. His limbs were deeply trapped in the mud and he couldn't move at all.

Exclamations came from all directions.

"Wow, is that the end?"

"This sacrificial spirit is really powerful!"

"Master Ji Ling, you are the most powerful!"

"Did you see what happened just now?"

"I don't know how the sacrificial spirit did it, but he just reached out and pressed down, right?"

"To be honest, I don't understand."

"How could someone get stuck into this ground so easily?"

"A cultivator in the Foundation Establishment stage can't even last a single round!"

"This is probably the true method of the gods."

No matter whether they were representatives from large sects or cultivation families, or independent cultivators and players, they were all surprised by Lin Xiang's nonchalant attack. No one knew how powerful the ethereal man in front of them was!
