At the auction, Zhuge Wulang used his authority to extract a rejuvenation pill from the restriction in front of him.
The monks could all feel the faint fluctuation of spiritual power from it, and it indeed looked like a high-quality elixir.
"Seniors, you have all seen this before. This mid-grade Rejuvenating Pill has a starting price of 20,000 low-grade spirit stones. Those who are interested should not miss this opportunity..."
Zhuge Wulang demonstrated the elixir in all directions, and then placed it in a jade bottle to prevent the medicinal power from dissipating.
"Every item sold at our Universal Auction House undergoes quality inspection. This pill is made using ancient methods dating back thousands of years, and its efficacy is astonishing. It's a great value for personal use or for resale. Everyone knows that even the Medicine King Sect rarely sells the Rejuvenating Pill. Every pill used is one less."
Regardless of whether they are male or female monks, there are always some people who care particularly about their appearance.
In fact, the Rejuvenating Pill is an option for cultivators to solve their survival needs. If they have not established a foundation, they will definitely give priority to the Foundation Establishment Pill.
If they have the possibility of condensing the golden elixir, they will definitely use the spirit stones to buy spiritual medicines, elixirs or spells that assist in condensing the elixir, and will not choose the anti-aging pill.
Because high-level cultivators will naturally maintain their youthful looks, only mid- and low-level cultivators need to purchase anti-aging pills.
Xu Huiyun knew that her spiritual roots and potential were insufficient, so she did not speak rashly. Instead, she looked around to see if there was anyone who could compete with her.
If you can use your power to pressure others, why spend more money?
“20,000 spirit stones!”
A monk wearing a red mask spoke first. No one knew what kind of face he had under the mask.
The voice and body shape are both masculine, but it is likely a disguise.
Under normal circumstances, the price of a Rejuvenating Pill is between 40,000 and 50,000 spirit stones. Now that the supply has decreased, the starting price is only 20,000 spirit stones, so you won't lose money anyway.
Some people buy them for their own use, some buy them as gifts, and some try to sell them to others or exchange them for precious items.
After someone started bidding first, the others followed suit.
"Twenty-five thousand!"
"Twenty-eight thousand!"
"A senior offered thirty-six thousand!"
"Senior, the price for room Jia Hai is thirty-eight thousand!"
"Senior Xu bids forty-five thousand!"
Zhuge Wulang was originally nervous, but now he gradually fell into joy and wished that this group of people would bid higher.
As the price got higher and higher, some movement gradually appeared in the auction hall.
Some people didn't believe it, but before they could make a move, the pressure from the Black Dragon pressed down on the crowd.
Tan Mengru then said, "Seniors, please be reasonable in the auction. If you try to take action, we will use coercive measures."
The spiritual awareness of the Black Dragon in the Tribulation Period is not as good as that of human cultivators of the same level, but it is much better than these younger generations.
It declares its existence in this way, repeatedly hitting those who have ulterior motives.
It doesn’t matter outside the Huanyu Market, but you must follow the rules here!
…
The auction prices continued to soar here, while on the other side Lin Xiang received several guests from Yueying Palace and Dagan Dynasty.
Yesterday, Feng Yi, the envoy sent by Yueying Palace, reported to the sect and the court the attempt by the cultivators of the Great Zhou Dynasty to assassinate the sacrificial spirit of the Universal Market.
"Your Excellency, the Sacrifice Spirit, you should be the only Sacrifice Spirit of the Cultivation Market in our Dagan territory. I never thought that the Cultivation Market could also have a Sacrifice Spirit."
"Perhaps the previous market did not need to offer sacrifices to the spirits."
Mu Yan, the imperial guard from the Dagan Dynasty, has a very high level of cultivation, reaching the late Golden Core realm.
The Dagan Feng family has been established for many years. Before the establishment of the country, the Feng family itself was a first-class cultivation world, otherwise it would not have received support from the Yueying Palace.
In the first few hundred years, the Yueying Palace and the Dagan court were quite close to each other, but from then until now they have gradually parted ways.
The country's power declined from prosperity to decline, and Dagan was unwilling to have an emperor above his head, so all the good cultivation seedlings and cultivation resources had to be tributed.
The Yueying Palace was also dissatisfied with the increasingly scarce offerings from Da Gan, believing that he was hypocritical.
Fortunately, facing a powerful enemy, the two former partners began to cooperate again, and no one wanted to suffer losses.
The Da Gan court sent guards to obtain more accurate information. The country is so vast that it is unknown from which direction the cultivators from the Great Zhou will come.
Prefect Song of Guanlin Prefecture has led soldiers to garrison at the border.
If one wants to become a high-ranking prefect, one must be at least at the Nascent Soul stage. Some prefects in wealthy areas may even be at the Spirit Transformation stage.
The county magistrate, the prefect, the governor, and then the general who is in charge of the entire country can barely be considered a vertical line.
Da Zhou and Da Gan have been on good terms for thousands of years and have a lot of trade on a regular basis. Therefore, Guanlin Prefecture is actually connected to the national highway, and there are border defenses on the national highway.
That will definitely be the main battlefield, but for the monks, they don't need to use the national highway to enter the enemy's hinterland, and it is unrealistic to completely block the border.
Based on what happened in the Universal Market, they initially deduced that the Great Zhou would most likely choose to have the cultivators take a detour through the Ten Thousand Mountains, and this was exactly one of the landing areas chosen by the other party.
As for whether they will make a feint to the east and attack in the west, that depends on the judgment of the generals on both sides.
This is purely a psychological game between the two sides, unless accurate intelligence can be sent from within the local area.
Usually, villages, county towns, prefectural cities, county towns, national capitals and border crossings need to offer sacrifices to spirits. The ownership and management rights of the cultivation market belong to the monks, so who would set up a sacrificial spirit for no reason?
Lin Xiang looked at the Nascent Soul cultivators from the Moon Shadow Palace and continued, "Your Excellency Qingyue, you can take these people away and interrogate them. I believe you know the value of their lives better than I do."
Master Qingyue nodded. She looked to be in her thirties, and her cold temperament made people feel difficult to approach.
"Thank you for your help, Master Ji Ling. We have already been secretly on high alert and have set up a tight net around the Hundred Thousand Mountains, waiting for them to come."
"Please accept this sound transmission note, Lord Ji Ling. If you encounter any cultivators from the Great Zhou attacking the market town, you can send a message and someone will come to rescue you soon." Mu Yan wanted to win over such a mysterious and powerful cultivator, and at the same time took out the incense and candles that had been treasured in the palace for a long time.
If the incense and candles containing great luck are lit, they can instantly gain a lot of faith power, and almost every sacrifice cannot do without it.
"His Majesty the Emperor is very grateful to Master Jiling for his silent protection of the small villages and residents on the border over the years. He specifically asked me to bring you the incense and candles that have not been given to you over the years. In the future, we will provide you with a salary according to the standards of the county city's Jiling. Is this acceptable to you?"
Before coming, Master Qingyue knew that Mu Yan had an important task, and this was the main method used to judge friend and foe.
Once the sacrificial spirit chooses to light the incense containing the Dagan luck, then his fate will be linked to the Dagan Dynasty.
The more incense you absorb of this trait, the deeper the bond, and the harder it is to betray.
Because once the Dagan Dynasty falls, their strength will weaken rapidly, and they may directly regress from the Nascent Soul stage to the Golden Core stage!
If Lin Xiang doesn't accept it, it means that this sacrificial spirit may have other ideas.
"Thank you, Your Majesty. Then let's follow the county city's spirit worship standards." Lin Xiang said nonchalantly. In fact, he was still very happy in his heart because his depleted divine power could finally be quickly replenished.
In fact, no matter how these two countries fight, even if they are destroyed, his strength will not be affected.
Because he is essentially a land official from heaven, he just secretly has a part-time job on earth.
There is no boss in heaven, so who can control him?
"These are fifty-year-old spirit stones, some elixirs, and materials. Lord Jiling, please check them."
You can't catch a wolf without sacrificing a child. Although the imperial court is in a precarious situation, a lean camel is still bigger than a horse, and giving out fifty years' salary is nothing.
Although the auction not far away is in full swing and helping me earn spirit stones, I should not miss the resources that are delivered to my door for free.
Lin Xiang used his hidden universe to collect all these items. He said solemnly, "Please rest assured, the Huanyu Market will protect all nearby residents and cultivators. You can boldly publish a notice so that they can choose to seek refuge with me."
This is his purpose.
If you want to make your surroundings prosperous, nothing is easier than seeking cooperation with the government.
Previously, Lin Xiang was unwilling to cooperate with the government office in Qifeng Town because the other party's level was too low. Now, at worst, he can let the people in Guanlin Prefecture know that there is a place like Huanyu Market where they can be safe and make a living, which is very likely to attract the people.
True Man Qingyue actually didn't know that Lin Xiang needed to believe in divine power. She praised him, "Master Ji Ling, you are truly kind-hearted. I thank you on behalf of the people of Dagan."
Mu Yan, who was standing next to him, felt a little unhappy, but he didn't show it.
Lin Xiang took the opportunity to promote the idea, saying, "There's no need to worry about the gray fog around Huanyu Market. We have many brave and skilled young warriors here, helping to subdue demons every night. And here, the common people can get plots of land for planting and breeding, and they can also choose to work in large workshops or make a living through other means."
"I will convey Lord Jiling's opinion to the prefect. It is difficult for ordinary people to find such a paradise in this dangerous world. I hope they can survive well."
Now most ordinary people can only say that they are surviving, not living.
"Take care, both of you. You are welcome to come anytime."
Lin Xiang said with a smile that these two people not only took away the troublesome Great Zhou monks, but also brought him a lot of cultivation resources and even future believers.
In fact, he did not discriminate against the cultivators of the Great Zhou. If they only came into the market to rest and replenish supplies and did not cause trouble, he would of course let them go.
With the official approval of Da Gan, his Huanyu Market should be completely listed on the map.
Just like doing business in the real world, an important point when opening a store is to leave the address and contact information on various maps and navigation software so that passers-by can find it easily.
The auction next door is coming to an end, and the last thousand-year-old fire apricots are being auctioned.
But Lin Xiang did not go over to check his income. He turned and entered Dongshan Village.
The neatly renovated Dongshan Village at this time is completely different from when it first arrived. Apart from the lack of high-tech things, it is not much different from the rural areas in the real world.
In a spacious courtyard, the residents of Dongshan Village had sad faces, and some were even wiping away tears.
"Woo woo woo, let's go find Lord Jiling for help."
"Master Ji Ling, please save my father!"
"How could this happen? My dad didn't even have time to enjoy his good days..."
The second Yincha, return to your position!
The author has something to say:
I underestimated the power of the flu and kept going through a cycle of fever-fever-fever. My fever would go down when I was receiving the IV drip, but I would get a fever again shortly after returning home.
The 10,000-word update for the weekend has been canceled, and I can’t guarantee updates for tomorrow or the day after tomorrow. I just hope there will be no interruption.
I hope everyone can forgive me.
