Lu Xuan currently has no way of knowing how to join one of the nine major sects.
So he wandered aimlessly through the market.
As Lu Xuan passed by a roadside repair stall, he stopped in his tracks.
"Can you guarantee that I can master this spell?"
"I can guarantee that," the middle-aged rogue cultivator asked with a confident expression.
Lu Xuan diverted the other person's attention, then casually pointed to a few tattered books next to him, intending to inquire about their prices.
Just then, a chubby, rogue cultivator walked over and said:
"You dare to sell this junk?"
"Fellow Daoist, you want it?"
I wouldn't even take it if it were free!
The chubby, wandering cultivator made a few sarcastic remarks to the middle-aged stall owner and left smugly.
The middle-aged stall owner was very disappointed.
"I want these books, but how many spirit stones will it cost?"
"This... I will never forget your kindness, fellow Daoist. How about this, give me three spirit stones, and you can choose any of these items you like, senior!" The middle-aged stall owner, who was at the third level of Qi Refining, said with tears of joy.
"Well, I'm not greedy, I'll just take a few items."
After speaking, Lu Xuan made his choice:
[Beginner's Guide to Alchemy]
A True Explanation of Introductory Alchemy
[Complete Collection of Common Qi Refining Stage Pill Recipes]
[Ancient Foundation Building Pill, Great Five Elements Mystic Pill, Pill Formula]
"Sss~"
Are the ancient Foundation Building Pill and the Great Five Elements Mystic Pill formulas so cheap?
Nobody wants it?
The other party seemed to have noticed Lu Xuan's confusion:
"Fellow Daoist, there's no need to be confused. I was just as shocked as you were before! In fact, these two ancient Foundation Establishment Pills could not be successfully refined, so the pill formulas became worthless."
"Why is that?" Lu Xuan couldn't help but ask.
The stall owner replied:
"Because the medicinal herbs required to refine these ancient pills must be thousands of years old, which is something that is absolutely not found even in the Heavenly Capital Secret Realm."
"I see."
Lu Xuan nodded, and then learned from the conversation that the middle-aged rogue cultivator was named Wu Dahai, and was actually a collateral member of the Wu Family Fortress.
He wasn't short of spirit stones before, but because his daughter Wu Xin'er contracted a strange illness, she was unable to cultivate!
However, this woman possesses a unique dual spiritual root aptitude, making her highly likely to achieve Foundation Establishment.
However, this strange illness left even the Wu family patriarch, who was at the early Foundation Establishment stage, helpless. Over time, Wu Dahai went bankrupt but still couldn't cure his daughter Wu Xin'er's strange illness. Now, he can't even afford the most basic medicine and has to sell his property.
After learning the whole story, Lu Xuan gave the other party a few more spirit stones.
He left amidst the other person's grateful gaze.
"Wu Family Fortress is recruiting guest elders?"
A moment later.
Lu Xuan learned at a restaurant that in order to resist the invasion of the Heavenly Demon Sect, Wu Family Fortress decided to recruit ten guest elders at the late stage of Qi Refining.
Of course, countless late-stage Qi Refining cultivators rushed there upon hearing the news.
It is said that there are several cultivators who have reached the Great Perfection of the Twelfth Level of Qi Refining.
These Qi Refining cultivators were all cultivators from nearby markets, most of which had been occupied by the Heavenly Demon Sect.
Upon hearing the news, everyone wanted to try their luck.
"Only the ten strongest rogue cultivators can become guest elders of Wu Family Fortress?"
Upon hearing this news, Lu Xuan understood that Wu Family Fortress was casting a wide net to catch a big fish, and only a peak expert in the late stage of Qi Refining could win.
Should we go or not?
Lu Xuan pondered for a long time.
Then, another piece of news made him make up his mind.
Because the Heavenly Demon Sect's next target is Wu Family Fortress, where he is right now!
At that time, staying in the outer ring of Wujiabao will not be safe at all.
Only inside Wu Family Fortress can you find Foundation Establishment level formation protection!
Is the Heavenly Demon Sect about to break ties with the Righteous Alliance?
Lu Xuan muttered to himself.
Currently, Lu Xuan's qualifications are insufficient, and he cannot join other cultivation sects. The main reason is that his aptitude is too low. Even though he is at the late stage of Qi Refining, no cultivation sect is willing to accept a disciple with five spiritual roots, not even a nominal disciple.
Thinking about this...
Lu Xuan has decided to participate in the martial arts contest at Wu Family Fortress three days from now!
During this period, he needed to increase his strength and purchase many talismans.
Three days later.
Lu Xuan used most of his spirit stones to purchase a number of talismans and several personal defensive magical artifacts.
[Mid-grade defensive magic weapon, Hundred-Scale Armor]
[Low-grade defensive magical artifact, Heavenly Jade Silkworm Robe]
And other necessary items.
At this moment, Lu Xuan was fully prepared.
With his Qi Refining Level 7 cultivation and a few decent magical artifacts like the Soul Devouring Banner, entering the top ten shouldn't be too difficult.
Upon arriving at Wu Family Fort, Lu Xuan registered and received an identity token.
Looking around, Lu Xuan saw that there were about seventy or eighty late-stage Qi Refining cultivators participating in the battle.
Just then, the battle of wits had already begun in full swing.
An elderly man in blue robes, at the peak of the twelfth level of Qi Refining, announced on the stage:
"Alright, let the battle begin now."
"The first match is between Fairy Linglong and Ancestor Green Bronze!"
"?" Lu Xuan, who was sitting in the audience, thought he had misheard these words.
Lu Xuan glanced at her and recognized her as the familiar Fairy Linglong, and the Green Bronze Ancestor, a Qi Refining Level 12 cultivator he had met at the auction.
It seems that this Green Bronze Ancestor not only failed to break through to the Foundation Establishment realm, but also appears to have suffered hidden injuries, and his aura is still below the eleventh level of Qi Refining.
Was the Green Bronze Ancestor injured by the demonic cultivator? Or did he fail to break through and suffer a backlash like the Red Leaf Ancestor?
Lu Xuan saw on the stage that Fairy Linglong and Old Ancestor Green Bronze were looking at each other in bewilderment:
The Green Bronze Ancestor looked dejected, his arrogant demeanor gone, and he said with a blank expression:
