What these nine elders did not notice was that an unusual light flashed in the eyes of one of the nine disciples. This person was Lin Pingzhi from the Tianjian Sect of the Desolate Country.

The reason for his reaction was that he had unexpectedly discovered a person with the same name as himself in the Tengwang Pavilion - Lin Pingzhi. Out of curiosity, he began to search for all the information and records related to Lin Pingzhi in the secret manuals in the Tengwang Pavilion, hoping to find some clues to solve the mystery of why there was a person with the same name as himself in the secret manuals.

After some careful searching and reading, Lin Pingzhi developed a strong interest in the secret book called "Pixie Sword Manual" which was practiced by a person with the same name as himself.

He began to search the manual for detailed records of the Pixie Sword Manual more meticulously. As his research deepened, Lin Pingzhi gradually began to form a preliminary outline of the Pixie Sword Manual in his mind. He began to gain a deeper understanding of the mystery and power of this technique.

Although Lin Pingzhi developed a keen interest in the Pixie Sword Manual, he was in no hurry to publicize it. He knew full well that the training conditions for the Pixie Sword Manual were extremely special, even bizarre. He didn't dare to easily assert whether what he had comprehended was a true martial arts technique.

After all, to practice that authentic martial arts technique, one must first cut off one's earthly roots, right?

Lin Pingzhi pondered in his heart. He was not sure whether he had really realized anything. After all, the elders of the nine forces had not realized anything, so he did not dare to make a conclusion easily.

What followed was quite simple. After the Canglan Empress and the nine factions returned to the Royal Elegant Villa, the Divine Weapon Pavilion held an auction the next day for ten Hundred Refined Divine Weapons. The ten Hundred Refined Divine Weapons were auctioned off by the Canglan Empress and the nine sects that had obtained Supreme Kaka at exorbitant prices, each fetching millions of taels of silver.

You have to know that they have already topped up 10 million taels of silver to apply for the Supreme Card. If they don't spend it, then the silver will never return to their hands. It is better to take these magic weapons into their pockets and improve their strength.

At the trade fair at the Royal Yuya Villa, except for a few forces, most of the participants did not exchange a large amount of banknotes, so they could only helplessly watch those precious magical weapons being divided up by Empress Canglan and the nine major sects.

However, this didn't mean the other factions gained nothing from the Royal Ya Villa. In fact, after successfully crafting those impressive alloy weapons, the craftsmen of the Ministry of Industry sold many of their previously carefully crafted, superior weapons. After all, the State of Wei already had better weapons, and selling these previously considered superior weapons could still bring in a considerable amount of silver.

The price of these weapons was even lower than any other similar products offered by any faction on the Holy Martial Continent, which undoubtedly attracted those factions that were unable to purchase the Hundred Refined Weapons. They all rushed to buy these sophisticated weapons, because even these weapons were very popular throughout the continent.

As the various factions traveled through the various areas of the Royal Ya Villa, they discovered that it was a vast ocean of treasures, from bizarre martial arts tools to precious medicinal herbs, from antique weapons to rare forging materials.

Moreover, the prices of these treasures were much cheaper than those elsewhere. Therefore, representatives from various factions were busy selecting and purchasing here, hoping to bring back as many treasures as possible for themselves or their factions before the trade fair ended.

At the Biqu Pavilion, run by the Cao family, a rare and precious novel based on ancient mythology was unexpectedly discovered. It was a genuine, unadapted original. Furthermore, the Biqu Pavilion was offering this novel at an unusually low price, sparking great interest from numerous parties, who rushed to buy it, creating a bustling scene in front of the Biqu Pavilion.

As a result, Biqu Pavilion became the center of attention. Numerous warriors flocked to the Royal Bank within the villa to apply for bronze membership, exchange banknotes, and then purchase the mythological novel directly from Biqu Pavilion. Some even purchased several copies at once, intending to take these precious books back home as gifts for their friends and family.

Due to the low price, the cost of buying a book is even less than the cost of buying some ordinary paper in the past, which makes warriors feel very cost-effective.

In the palace, Chu Fan witnessed the eunuchs frantically printing books and was deeply confused. He couldn't understand why these warriors were suddenly interested in mythological novels. Shouldn't they be devoting themselves wholeheartedly to cultivation? Why would they want to buy mythological novels to read?

Chu Fan was completely baffled by this. However, since it was just a mythological novel, and the warriors loved it so much, he decided not to interfere too much. After all, the more they bought, the more he would earn.

The eunuchs in the imperial palace didn't work for the Cao family for free. Most of the books the Cao family sold were purchased from the imperial palace before being sold at the Biqu Pavilion. The more books the Cao family sold, the more money they could make.

After the elders of the nine factions had auctioned off the Hundred Refined Divine Weapons and purchased some weapons, books, and rice paper, they sent their disciples back to their respective sects, taking the copied secret manuals with them. They remained at the villa, awaiting their second opportunity to ascend Chuitai Mountain. Lin Pingzhi was one of those who returned to his own sect first.

After Lin Pingzhi, a disciple of the Tianjian Sect, safely delivered the Hundred Refined Divine Weapons and purchased items entrusted to him by the elders, he decided to return to his family to visit his parents. After all, he had been away for a long time, and his heart was filled with longing for his family and anticipation for the future.

However, when Lin Pingzhi returned to his family with great anticipation, he discovered a scene that shocked and broke his heart. All his family members had been brutally murdered in their home by their enemies, and the entire family had become a ruin.

Lin Pingzhi's family, just like the one described in the secret book in Tengwang Pavilion, was a family that made a living by escorting darts, relying on their own strength and wisdom to make a living in the world of martial arts. However, when Lin Pingzhi returned to his family with great expectations, he found that his family had been killed by their enemies in their own home.

Faced with his family's tragic plight, Lin Pingzhi felt a surge of anger and grief. He vowed to avenge his family and wash away this deep blood feud. He also clearly realized that his enemies were extremely powerful, and he was just an ordinary disciple of the Tianjian Sect. The Tianjian Sect would not stand up for him.

At this moment, Lin Pingzhi thought of the Pixie Sword Manual he had learned in Tengwang Pavilion. He had no way out now, and only by practicing the Pixie Sword Manual could he have any hope of revenge. Lin Pingzhi came to a cave, took a deep breath, and a glint of determination flashed in his eyes. With one strike of the sword, his earthly roots were severed, and blood splattered everywhere.
