Yet, the "Danyuandan Refining Art" provides countless possibilities, allowing one to extract the essence from the dantians of low-level demonic beasts. 。After much accumulation, one can refine a single drop comparable to that of a Jindan cultivator's Dan Yuan. 。"Well, the starting price is 10,000 inferior spirit stones, and each increase must not be less than 1,000!" As soon as Master Xu's words fell, the many cultivators present immediately began to discuss in an uproar. 。Lu Xia Tian's heart trembled violently, he was practicing the art of refining the Dan Yuan. 。Any Qi refining cultivator who possesses a Dan Yuan artifact can almost certainly see a huge surge in their power. 。What surprised him was that the starting price for such a secret technique was so low. 。He glanced at all the bidders present, two of the most powerful cultivators among them seemed to have a smirk on their faces. 。Could there be something else going on with this "Dan Yuan Refining Art" Lu Xiaoteng pondered for a moment, and the price had already skyrocketed to 30,000 inferior spirit stones. 。Anyway, even if it's a little strange, let's just get this secret art first. 。Lu Xia Tian also joined the bidding, "35,000!"

A sudden increase of five thousand, many cultivators in the field looked sideways at

However, some people were still unwilling to give up. After much persistence, Lu Xia Tian obtained the Dan Yuan Refining Technique for a price of 39,000. 。However, after reading it carefully, I understood why the two powerful Foundation Establishment cultivators had sneered before. Just the refining method alone cost such a high price, and the required materials were astronomical. 。At least thousands of monster cores of the same kind are needed to possibly refine a single drop of Dan Yuan. 。The demonic beasts in the Wangyue Mountains are mixed and unmatched. Even if he found so many of the same kind of demonic beasts, the time spent would probably be unbearable for him. 。When buying a lesson >> 。After spending so many spirit stones, Lu Xia Tian couldn't help but feel depressed that he had bought a secret art with little practical use. 。But what came next made him even more depressed. 。"Well, the Dan Yuan Refining Art is indeed rare, but if you could directly buy Dan Yuan, it would undoubtedly save a lot of effort." 。Now offering a drop of water attribute Dan Yuan, starting bid one hundred thousand low-grade spirit stones, each increase must not be less than ten thousand. 。Master Xu Dan seemed to also feel that the just-used secret technique was a bit of a scam. When he pushed out Dan Yuan for auction, there was also a hint of unnatural expression on his face. 。

Damn it! Lu Xiaotiān cursed in his heart. He first took out a useless Dan Yuan Refining Art, waiting for someone to buy it, then immediately took out another drop of Dan Yuan to sell. Wasn't this ripping people off Although he was angry inside, he couldn't say it out loud. After all, in the transaction, no one forced anyone, and besides, the other party was a mid-level alchemist, at least more senior than him now.

"Dan Yuan! With just this drop of Dan Yuan, I have a Dan Yuan magic artifact! 150,000!" The foundation-building cultivators present instantly fell into a state of half madness. They started by directly raising the price by 150,000. 。“20,000!”Originally, Lu Xiaotian had some thoughts about the Dan Yuan, but hearing such a price, he couldn't help but be stunned. Of course, even at such a high price, he could afford it. It was just that a drop of water-type Dan Yuan was useless to him right now, and it would take up a lot of spirit stones. It wasn't a simple transaction. 。He has a Flame Crystal on him. If it's a Fire-type Dan Yuan, then the competition would be pretty close. 。After some consideration, Lu Xia Tian directly gave up on the bidding. 。At this time, the price of this drop of water has skyrocketed to 390,000. 。After several rounds of bidding, the item was snatched up by a bearded man at the eighth level of Qi Refining for a staggering 490,000 gold coins. 。Like many others before him, after trading the Dan Yuan, this bearded man left directly. He wasn't afraid of thieves stealing it, but rather that they would remember it. Even as a cultivator at the eighth level of Qi Refinement, once targeted, he might not be able to keep hold of this drop of water-based Dan Yuan. 。Next came Foundation Establishment Pills, and even a Rejuvenation Pill appeared, pushing the entire auction to new heights. 。However, besides one or two things, Lu Xia Tian didn't really care much. As for the Rejuvenation Pill, before leaving Lingxiao Palace, he had refined a large amount of Peiyuan Pills in addition to several batches of Rejuvenation Pills. After taking one himself, there were still two left in the pill bottle. 。He did try to refine a few furnaces of Huitian Dan, but perhaps because his alchemy skills were still limited, he hadn't succeeded yet. 。Since I was about to leave Lingxiao Palace, I didn't continue. 。"Alright, the auction is now coming to an end. However, only a small number of people were able to get what they wanted. The rest of you present can now take out your spiritual items and exchange them with each other. Perhaps you'll be able to get something unexpected." 。"A considerable portion of this auction was sold at astonishingly high prices. Master Xu Dan was overjoyed, and with a decisive hammer blow, announced the entry into the final phase of free exchange." 。

Compared to the auction in Chifeng Town, this one was much richer, and there was also an additional section for free trading between Foundation Establishment cultivators.

Even in Lingxiao Palace, it is rare to have such a large number of Qi refining cultivators gather together. 。Moreover, the spiritual creatures within a single sect often share certain similarities. It is only at auctions where cultivators from all corners of the world gather that true exchange and diversity can be achieved. 。"Seeking one Foundation Building Pill, I am willing to exchange four hundred years' worth of Broken Cloud Grass." 。"Don't bother me unless you have a Foundation Establishment Pill!" "A fourth-order Spirit Tiger Puppet, only exchanged for high-grade fire attribute spirit stones, or pills that can quickly recover mana. Anything else is not wanted!" A fourth-order puppet with the combat power equivalent to a Foundation Establishment cultivator, Lu Xia Tian was taken aback. He walked up to the fourth-order Spirit Tiger Puppet and carefully examined it for a while. 。"I ask, 'Can I offer medium-grade spirit stones'"

"Didn't the big guy want top-grade fire-attribute spirit stones Get lost, you little brat, don't block other people's way." 。The burly man, with a face full of flesh, saw that Lu Xiaoteng was only a newcomer at the initial stage of the Foundation Establishment period. He glared at him and said unceremoniously, 。"A pill for quickly recovering mana, like a Huìyuán Dān" A bald middle-aged man at the Qi Condensation seventh layer approached and asked. 。"Sorry, you need to recover at least half your mana within a short period of time." 。“The burly man's face twitched, but seeing that this bald head had a higher cultivation than him, he held back his temper and said” 。

The Huíyuán Dàn can indeed quickly restore mana, but its speed is not as fast as a mid-grade spirit stone. It's completely useless. It's only suitable for cultivators in the Qi Refining stage. However, this burly man was able to restrain his impulse and show mercy, clearly demonstrating that he is a bully who fears the strong and respects the weak. Some people are just born with better luck than others.

Lu Xiaotian shook his head and walked away. He did want to take this puppet beast, comparable to a foundation-building cultivator, for himself, but unfortunately, he didn't have what the other party wanted. 。He does have some high-grade spirit stones, but only a few fire-type ones, not nearly enough to exchange for... 。With no hope, Lu Xia Tian could only walk to other places. He looked at many houses successively, most of which exchanged some kind of elixir for spirit grass or other spirit grasses. 。Lu Xia Tian currently only has Qi Gathering Pills for the Qi Gathering Stage. While Rejuvenation Pills are exceptionally precious, he generally doesn't plan to exchange them. 。Due to hundreds of Foundation Establishment cultivators each taking out their things and hawking them, or selecting from each other, the entire auction scene was chaotic, resembling a vegetable market. 。“The water pearl allows a person to swim in deep water for two hours, disguises their breath as that of a water spirit beast, and greatly increases swimming speed underwater.” 。It is used to exchange two hundred Essence Pills, requiring one hundred of them to be medium grade. 。Before a young man in fine silk robes, with prominent cheekbones, lay a transparent orb brimming with the aura of water and beastly energy. 。“A pearl of liquid essence, it can only hide and masquerade in water. In exchange for two hundred Pei Yuan Pills, I'll give you half of them as middle-grade..." 。It's probably still a bit lacking. 。Even a master alchemist would find it difficult to produce such a large quantity of cultivation pills all at once. 。Lu XiaTian frowned, looking at the water bead in front of him. This water bead was quite interesting. Although it wasn't usually necessary, it could be very useful in certain specific environments. Of course, this was also because he had more Peiyuan Pills on him, so he was a little tempted. 。If the price could be lowered a bit, I might consider buying it. 。"If you are interested, Daoist friend, I could give you a slightly lower price, or you could use inferior Peiyuan Pills instead." 。The young man with high cheekbones spent a considerable amount of time and effort killing the water-based monster. 。I originally wanted to sell this waterdrop bead for a good price, but unexpectedly, the usage of waterdrop beads is rather niche, and coupled with its high price, no one was interested. 。Thus, Lu Xia Tian, after asking, he immediately lowered the threshold by a section. 。It took him over two years to slay the fourth-order Blackwater Newt, if he could exchange it for two hundred Peiyuan Pills to cultivate, it would be considered making back the time spent. 。He wasn't a particularly cunning person, and before he could speak, the other party had already lowered the price significantly. Lu Xiaoteng smiled inwardly, but the cultivation world was a cruel place. He couldn't make concessions just because the other party wasn't very scheming. Besides, this Rongshui Orb was somewhat unorthodox. He only bought it because he thought it might be useful in the future, so he put on a slightly embarrassed expression and said: 。"A hundred and twenty inferior cultivation restoration pills." 。"That's out of the question I spent over two years hunting down this fourth-order Black Water Demon Pike. One hundred and twenty are far too few, absolutely not enough. One hundred and fifty..." 。The young man with high cheekbones shook his head hurriedly and said: 。You slayed a fourth-rank monster beast, the value is not just a melting water bead, I believe you also made a lot of money. I only have one hundred and forty inferior Yuan Dan on me, do you think it works If not, there's nothing I can do about it. 。Lu Xia Tian shrugged and said: 。“This, well, well...” 。The young man with high cheekbones hesitated for a moment, seeing that no one else around him was interested in the water pearl he held. Though he felt reluctant, he could only agree. 。There are more than ten days left in the City of Moon Viewing, it seems like I'll have to refine several more batches of pills. 。Lu Xia Tian put away the water pearl and thought to himself, his demand for elixir was far greater than that of normal cultivators. Most cultivators from well-established families would consider it good fortune to be able to take one Pei Yuan Dan a day. 。As for ordinary Qi-building cultivators with no background, they couldn't even reach this proportion. 。However, Lu Xiaitian would take three pills every day to avoid wasting his cultivation time, making the most of it. After all, his speed of absorbing spiritual energy from the air and refining it was too slow. 。It is very difficult to improve one's level of cultivation without using pills. 。"Seven Star Formation! In exchange for a fourth-order Weaver God Pill, or a pill with the same healing divine sense effect, plus 200,000 lower grade spirit stones, or an equivalent amount of Foundation Building Pills or Nourishing Yuan Pills." 。After looking at some spirit objects displayed by Foundation Establishment cultivators, either Lu Xia Tian found them unsatisfactory or the things they were asking for he didn't have. Finally, when he was about to leave, he saw a set of formation disks put out by the bald old man who had failed to bid on the Zhishen Wood before. 。While his eyes scanned the spiritual objects displayed by other Foundation Establishment cultivators, he could only eventually withdraw his gaze in disappointment. 。Among the four-tier killing formations, the most infamous is the Seven Stars Formation. Lu XiaTian's face was full of emotion. He had long understood the magical use of the formation. As early as when he was still in the middle stage of Qi refining, when he was searching for spiritual creatures to join a sect in the Wuyue Mountains, he escaped using a set of Wu Yuan formation techniques. 。But the conditions for using the Qisha Formation are also extremely demanding. Apart from the spirit stone consumption of the Qixing Formation itself, each use will inevitably cause severe damage to one's divine sense. Only a Zhishen Pill or an extremely rare divine sense repair pill of the same level could recover it. 。Before spirit repair, even a Foundation Establishment cultivator could exert the power of a middle-stage Qi Refining practitioner if it went well. 。As for the Qi Refinement Stage cultivation base, it's simply unable to activate this killing formation. 。Therefore, although the Qixing Formation is incredibly powerful, very few formation masters have ever been able to refine it. The cost of using it is too high. Divine Consciousness pills like Zhishen Dan and Yang Hun Dan are even rarer than Zhuji Dan. 。Otherwise, even a Zhi Shenmu wouldn't sell for tens of thousands of spirit stones. After all, it's highly possible that it would be ruined when used for alchemy. 。

However, this Seven Stars Formation was quite suitable for him to use. Lu Xiaoteng felt a surge of surprise in his heart. He had already divided his primordial spirit into a main and a deputy. Even if the deputy primordial spirit was damaged, it would not affect his combat ability. Moreover, he had refined some nourishing soul pills to repair the damaged deputy primordial spirit.

It's just that such a large transaction isn't suitable for a Foundation Establishment cultivator to do in front of so many people. 。Lu Xia Tian calculated for a while, then lingered near the bald old man. 。Then, some more Foundation Establishment cultivators inspected the array disk of the Seven Star Array, but they all shook their heads and left in disappointment. 。If there weren't those harsh conditions, it would even be possible to be promoted to nearly a million spirit stones. 。After about half an hour, the bald old man saw that so many Qi Refining cultivators present were unwilling to trade with him, or they didn't have what he wanted. The bald old man looked dejected, sighed, and took the lead in leaving. 。Lu Xia Tian naturally followed along. 。"Friend, you've been following me from the auction all the way here. Are you interested in the Seven Star Formation I have" After walking a few streets, the bald old man turned into a less crowded alleyway and suddenly turned to face Lu Xiaodao. 。 two enormous palms formed by the combined might of magical power and blood energy held aloft the ice-bound white horse simultaneously. 。But that seemingly insignificant piece of ice, at this moment,...
