True Man Huo Deng was one of the few third-rank alchemy masters in the South China Sea, and his status was higher than that of the top elders of the Yunshang Sect.

This person has a great influence in the South China Sea, so once the news of the barter meeting came out, it quickly spread far and wide.

The Spiritual Medicine Exchange Conference also has a strong appeal to Shen Lian.

There are not many elixirs that can help foundation-building cultivators advance to the golden elixir stage, only a few types.

Among them is the second-grade top-grade Yuehua Hanyuan Pill, which can help ninth-level foundation-building cultivators improve their spirit and energy and accelerate their own perfection.

The secret star-falling elixir known as the small golden elixir.

What remains is to form the golden elixir. This elixir is extremely rare in the South China Sea. Even in the Yunshang Sect, only one or two can be obtained in a hundred years.

Neither the Falling Star Secret Pill nor the Golden Pill are that attractive to Shen Lian.

His rare Moon Spirit Essence, the main ingredient for refining the Moon Hua Yuan Dan, would be of great help to his subsequent physical cultivation.

I wonder if Moon Spirit Essence will appear at the elixir exchange fair attended by this third-rank alchemist.

It was because of the news of the barter meeting that Shen Lian decided to stay in Nanya Fairy City for a few more days. After the barter meeting was over, he would go to Qianzhu Mountains to look for the Earth Dragon Root.

"It would be even better if we could exchange for some other spiritual objects."

Sitting cross-legged on the second floor and thinking, Shen Lian heard the noise on the street. Without opening the window, he knew it was the shopkeeper Liu from the grocery store and the wife of Mr. Huang from the rice shop opposite.

Ever since hearing the news about the barter meeting, Shopkeeper Liu gave up the idea of ​​looking for the elixir for foundation building.

I just don’t know if the Liu family has gained anything in just half a month.

Don't underestimate this half month. If the Liu family can seize the opportunity of speculation, they will definitely reap great rewards.

In the next month, more cultivators came and went in Nanya Immortal City than before.

The nearby families and monks who got the news gathered towards the Immortal City, even a Jindan Zhenren came.

On the second floor of the alchemy shop, Shen Lian looked up at the stream of light passing through the void.

As soon as he entered the city, he was stopped by a figure, and then he headed towards the highest building in the north of the fairy city.

Golden Elixir True Man.

This is the fourth Jindan cultivator from outside in the past month.

The appeal of a third-level alchemy master is evident.

After the appearance of Jindan Zhenren, more foundation-building cultivators arrived.

Similar to the Cape Fairy City, a huge market town was also formed on the sea outside the Nanya Fairy City by the clustered treasure ships.

Some boats wandering around the nearby market town even sailed directly to the sea outside the fairy city and stopped there.

In view of the increase in the number of monks coming and going, Nanya Immortal City has also responded by strengthening patrols inside and outside the city, and formed more than 20 patrol teams led by monks above the seventh level of foundation building.

On the sea, treasure ships were everywhere, and small black-sailed boats were wandering back and forth.

A black-sailed boat slowly approached a large treasure ship, and Shen Lian jumped onto the deck.

There were many monks setting up stalls on the deck of the treasure ship, and some monks were also selecting items.

"How much is this sea monster for?"

Looking at a jellyfish-like monster, Shen Lian spoke calmly.

He had been asking about this thing since the Inner Sea of ​​Ten Thousand Stars, and he didn't expect to finally encounter it here.

Unfortunately, it’s only one level one.

The cultivator who sold the sea spirit monster was a cultivator at the second level of foundation building. He was shocked when he sensed Shen Lian's breath.

"Senior, you know what's good. Although this sea monster is only a..."

"How many spirit stones?"

Shen Lian frowned and said dissatisfiedly.

"Two thousand low-grade spirit stones."

"Is there a second-level one?"

Shen Lian's heart moved and he asked.

"Hey...yes."

The monk did not open his mouth, but transmitted his voice, "But the price is a bit higher, and you have to wait until night."

"Why?"

The monk smiled and said nothing.

"What level of grade has it reached?"

Shen Lian looked at the cultivator in front of him who was pretending to be mysterious and asked again.

For him now, if the strength of the sea spirit monster is too weak, it will not be of much use at all.

The poisonous gas contained in the monster's gallbladder must at least block one-third of his spiritual power before it can be collected.

"Do you dare to accept it, senior of the third level?"

Shen Lian took another look, turned around and jumped off the treasure ship.

What the hell are you talking about with him?

As there were too many treasure ships nearby and a large market town had formed, Nanya Fairy City issued an order prohibiting any treasure ships from passing through the air.

Even without this order, Shen Lian would not have flown over the heads of so many cultivators.

Who knows which of these treasure ships below may contain an old thing?

"Senior, there is an auction tonight."

When Shen Lian was about to leave, the cultivator spoke again.

"Where?"

"It's thousands of miles out at sea."

"The entrance fee is five thousand low-grade spirit stones."

"Once you pay the spirit stones, they will not be refunded."

"How many spirit stones does one quota require?"

"Five hundred dollars."

The cultivator had no intention of hiding his curiosity about Shen Lian.

"Senior, you can go and take a look. Five thousand spirit stones are definitely worth it."

After traveling all over the country for so many years, this was the first time Shen Lian encountered an auction where he had to pay an admission fee.

How many Happy Pills would he have to sell for five thousand spirit stones?

"Senior, can you take a look at this first?"

The monk took out a jade slip and said, "But you can only read it on my treasure ship, and you must return it to me after reading it."

Shen Lian returned to the treasure ship, took the jade slip and took a look at it.

The jade slip recorded seven or eight spiritual objects, and the Moon Spirit Essence he wanted was among them.

The remaining spiritual objects are also rare and exquisite items, even some third-level magic weapons.

It really is effortless.

"How about it, senior? The entrance fee of 5,000 spirit stones is not a bad deal, right?"

After taking back the jade slip, the cultivator smiled and said, "Senior, don't worry that I will run away after taking the spirit stone. Now even the Golden Core Master has come to Nanya Immortal City, and no one dares to cause trouble here.

I am just an errand boy, and someone will lead you to the auction venue when the time comes."

…

In the evening.

A treasure ship with a small black flag was cruising at the edge of the sea market outside the city.

Shen Lian appeared on the boat.

Five thousand spirit stones is not bad, at least it includes pick-up and drop-off.

However, at this moment he was covered with an extremely large cloak, which could block the prying eyes of divine thoughts within a distance of 1,220 feet.

Don't ask why it is so accurate, I tested it myself.

After putting it on, if the spiritual consciousness does not exceed one thousand two hundred feet, it is impossible to project one's spiritual consciousness from the cloak.

By the way, this cloak is rented, with a deposit of 5,000 spirit stones, and a compensation of 50,000 if it is damaged.

At this moment, there were thirty-seven foundation-building monks like him on the treasure ship, all covered with wide cloaks, riding on the treasure ship towards the deep sea.

Everyone wore a cloak before boarding the ship. Theoretically, more than 30 people did not know each other's appearance and realm.

Of course, except Shen Lian.

There was also a faint demonic aura lingering around the two of them.

"My fellow Taoists, we still have some time. You can go into the guest room and take a rest."

A masked monk appeared at the top of the attic.

Then, one saw many slender female cultivators, who were at the seventh level of Qi training or above, as well as male cultivators, walking out of the treasure ship's attic.

"Senior, please follow me."

A soft voice rang beside Shen Lian's ears, and a slender female cultivator bowed down, revealing just two waves of her lips.

Inside the guest room, a banquet has been prepared, including both meat and vegetarian dishes, with rich spiritual energy emanating from the soup.

The female cultivator who led Shen Lian into the box couldn't help but move her throat a few times.

These spiritual delicacies are nothing to the foundation-building cultivators, but to the Qi-cultivating cultivators, eating a bite is no less than taking a spiritual pill.

"Senior, I can stay and serve you for dinner."

The female cultivator bit her thin lips and spoke with a blushing face.

After taking a look at the female cultivator, Shen Lian did not say anything to scold her. As a cultivator who escaped from the wilderness, he knew the sufferings of the lower-level cultivators.

"Come on, eat with me."

"Thank you, Senior. My name is Qiuyue."

Qiuyue walked to the table in small steps. As a maid on the treasure ship, she would not dare to overstep her bounds in order to serve these delicacies without the guests' permission.

When they arrived at the table, Qiuyue consciously unbuttoned the top and bottom of her skirt without Shen Lian saying anything.

"I have cultivated the Vajra-like indestructibility."

After these words were spoken, Qiuyue was stunned and looked at a loss as to what to do.

Should I continue to unbutton or button it again?

"Eat it. I can't eat it either."

Shen Lian picked up the chopsticks and took a bite of the cooked spirit fish. He slightly lifted the drooping black veil of his cloak and put it into his mouth.

Of course, at least in Qiuyue's opinion, Shen Lian did eat it.

At this moment, Shen Lian also noticed that there was a divine consciousness descending from a high altitude on the treasure ship, observing his room.

Of course, I was also observing the other rooms.

Among the more than thirty fellow Taoists who have established their foundation, not all of them are like him. There are also male and female cultivators who have strong hands-on abilities.

Some were surfing, while others were stroking the abdominal muscles of the muscular male attendants and doing reverse surfing.

However, everyone only tried it briefly, and they all understood that the auction was the most important thing.

The intensity of the divine thought peeping down from above was not very strong, probably about two thousand feet in diameter, and it was most likely a fake Dan Zhenren.

"Senior, the treasure ship where the auction is held will take some time. I can help you to relax your muscles."

After eating the spiritual food, Qiuyue stood up again, her face flushed.

"No need, get out."

"Yes, I will be guarding outside the door."

…

Watching the box door close, Shen Lian, shrouded in a cloak, frowned slightly.

I always feel that this treasure ship is weird, but I can't tell what's weird about it.

According to divine sense, except for the highest attic which was guarded by formation, there was nothing special in the rest of the treasure ship.

His divine sense slowly emerged, and Shen Lian quickly recognized what kind of formation was arranged on the attic.

Moreover, the formation was not running at full capacity, it was just operating in the most economical state.

…

Outside the attic door at the highest point of the treasure ship.

The masked monk walked to the door and waited quietly for a while.

Not long after, a ban appeared on the door and it slowly opened.

The man walked in carefully.

In the attic, a copper wall array with four walls that isolated the air was slowly moving. On the gorgeous wooden couch at the innermost part, a woman in a black dress was sitting cross-legged.

At first glance, she looked to be in her thirties, with charming eyes full of peach blossoms, and she exuded a strong charm.

"High Deacon."

The masked monk did not dare to look up as he approached and saluted respectfully.

"This is the fusion fluid taken from the servant."

With a wave of his hand, five bottles flew out and landed in front of the female cultivator.

"Buzz."

The corks of five bottles flew up, and a strong, salty and wet smell filled the air, causing the black-clothed female cultivator to cover her nose in disgust.

Frowning at the bottle in front of her, she waved her hand and a circle of powder was sprayed out, which sank into the bottle.

Before long, a faint glow appeared in the liquid in the bottle, some of which was black and gold, and some was green and gold.

"Going out and still thinking about having sex, you are really just a bunch of rubbish."

Sensing the dim spiritual light, the female cultivator snorted coldly.

After seeing that the test was completed, the masked monk quickly burned the bottle clean with spiritual fire, and performed a cleaning spell in the room.

Seeing the female monk close her eyes again, the masked monk tiptoed out of the attic room.

Inside the box, Shen Lian looked strange at first, then quickly became tense.

The monks' methods are truly beyond imagination. They can even check spiritual roots in this way.

This served as a reminder to him that in the future, whether he was having fun or doing other things, he must be careful not to leave any traces.

Who would have the time to check the spiritual roots of a foundation-building cultivator, and use such despicable and secretive means?

Could it be that you are looking for high-quality five-element spiritual roots?

…

Late at night, the group finally arrived at the treasure ship where the auction was held.

Under the night sky, a five-hundred-foot-long, streamlined treasure ship was brightly lit.

Several treasure ships flying small black flags were docked beside this large treasure ship, and monks wearing cloaks were heading towards the large treasure ship.

"Sea people."

As soon as he stepped onto the treasure ship, Shen Lian sensed that under the wide cloak not far away was a monk with scales on his forehead.

You have to know that on the surface, the human race and the sea race are hostile forces.

I didn't expect the seller at this auction to have such a wild background.

"senior."

At this moment, a heat wave swept over, and seductive sounds poured into Shen Lian's ears, and something soft pressed on his arm.

"Senior, I am your guide. My name is Yu Xiaoshan."

This female cultivator's strength has reached the ninth level of Qi training. She has also practiced a charm technique of a high level, and she exudes seductive charm the moment she opens her mouth.

With the previous discovery, Shen Lian naturally became alert.

It is certain that there are some weird things mixed in at this auction.

It is probably impossible to kill everyone, but it is easy to make a few people disappear quietly.

"Then let's go."

Led by the guide Yu Xiaoshan, Shen Lian entered the interior of the treasure ship.

This treasure ship was obviously specially made.

Inside is a five-story corridor with an extremely wide platform in the middle, surrounded by lanterns and jade pillars.

On the corridor facing the platform, there are independent boxes, and the platform below can be clearly seen from any place.

Under the guidance of Yu Xiaoshan, Shen Lian entered a private room in the corridor on the third floor.

"Senior, I am an outer disciple of the Yihua Palace under the command of the Holy Spirit Palace. I have practiced the Bone-Eating Charm Technique for decades and can bring you endless happiness."

As soon as she entered the box, Yu Xiaoshan revealed her true face and wanted to cling to Shen Lian like a snake.
