A small casual cultivator!

After paying for the elixir, he started wandering around again.

"Have you heard that Mr. Li is holding a trade fair in Cuiyun Tower, planning to sell all the rare treasures that the Li Mansion has accumulated over the past hundred years. It seems that his grandson was spotted by a Taoist cultivator with profound Taoist skills a few days ago and is being recruited as a disciple. He is preparing tuition fees for his grandson."

"Really? I just heard you say that. But his family spent a lot of money to buy the Qi-inducing technique for cultivating immortals. Didn't they hire several immortal masters for their grandson before, but they all said that he had no spiritual roots and no hope of cultivating immortals? How come... Hey, Mr. Li really put a lot of thought into having an immortal in his family."

While walking, two people passed by him and Lu Luan overheard what they were talking about.

"Li family, trade treasures."

Lu Luan stopped and immediately became very interested. He had heard the frivolous old man introduce the Li family before. Although there were no cultivators in the family, it was a martial arts family with dozens of people.

So he followed the two men.

In fact, in such a big city, ordinary immortal cultivation and Qi-drawing techniques are not too rare. They are available on the market and can be purchased by ordinary mortals with some financial resources for more than a hundred taels of silver.

If you are lucky enough to have spiritual roots, it is not impossible to become an immortal cultivator.

"Cuiyun Tower."

Soon, he saw a nice-sized wooden building on the street. After taking a few looks, he walked in.

"Sir, this restaurant is not open to the public today. If you want to eat or drink tea, please come back later."

However, as soon as he entered, he was stopped by a servant.

"Why?" Lu Luan frowned and looked at him in confusion. The two people in front walked in openly.

The servant explained, "It's like this. Today, the entire building has been contracted by Mr. Li. Only the rich and powerful can enter and exit."

Seeing that Lu Luan was dressed in ordinary clothes, he thought he was a child from a poor family.

"Oh?"

Lu Luan smiled strangely, reached into his sleeves, and then took out several banknotes and asked, "Can I come in now?"

"Ah! Damn it! I am blind!"

Looking at the huge amount of silver bills, the servant's eyes almost popped out of his head and he quickly bowed and apologized.

Lu Luan just shook his head and smiled casually, ignored him, and strode into the building.

“I didn’t expect there would be so many people.”

Looking at the people walking around in front of him, Lu Luan couldn't help but feel a little surprised, but after taking a look at the treasures placed on both sides, he thought to himself: "I hope there will be a good harvest."

There was no obvious movement of the medicine insect in his hand, but he knew that some treasures were hidden very deep and he had to get closer to feel them. He did not feel frustrated, and continued to check them one by one.

Mr. Li was very thoughtful and provided exquisite containers for the treasures on display.

At this moment, they are being placed solemnly on the stage to be displayed to everyone.

"Ok?"

After a while, his brows moved and a look of joy appeared on his face.

Just as he was walking past a fist-sized red stone, suddenly, the medicine bug in the palm of his hand jumped violently!

"Have it!"

Lu Luan's eyes flashed with two rays of light in an instant. He stopped and gently placed his palm on it.

The moment he touched it, the bugs in his palm were so excited that they almost crawled out. The stone was slightly cool, very smooth, and had a fine texture, like jade but not jade.

"nice one!"

Seeing the insect's reaction to the medicine so strongly, Lu Luan was overjoyed at this moment.

"Young guest, do you like this stone?"

A servant next to him saw Lu Luan's absent-minded look and asked with a smile.

"How much is this stone?" Lu Luan asked casually.

"Twenty taels of silver, what do you think, sir?"

"It's okay, but it's quite peculiar." Lu Luan was eager to get the treasure, so in order to avoid unnecessary trouble, he did not bargain. He simply took out a few silver bills and held the stone in his hands.

"Thank you, sir. Thank you, sir." The servant took the banknote and kept thanking him.

Lu Luan ignored him, suppressed his excitement, quietly put the stone into his storage bag, and then heaved a sigh of relief.

He had a hunch that the things in this stone might be more valuable than the rock saliva he had obtained before.

After putting it away, he did not leave in a hurry, but looked left and right and continued to walk around.

Although Mr. Li is a mortal, he has a large family and a lot of strange toys and gadgets accumulated over several generations.

"Hey, they are all mortals now. This shouldn't be the case. Am I too late?"

After a while, Lu Luan was a little disappointed. None of the following items were pleasing to his eyes.

……

"I'll give you thirty taels!"

Suddenly, a man's roar came from upstairs.

"Hmm? There's more on top?"

Lu Luan was a little surprised at first, but soon his brows lit up with joy and he walked up the stairs. Something that could be priced at thirty taels was definitely not an ordinary thing.

So he walked away with a smile.

"Stay."

However, when he reached the end of the stairs, a burly middle-aged man reached out to stop him.

"So strong!"

As soon as he approached this man, Lu Luan felt a surge of powerful energy and looked at him in shock.

It seems that this middle-aged man has no spiritual roots. He is a martial artist who trains his body. Although he has no magic power, his agile skills and deep internal strength are not to be underestimated by ordinary cultivators!

Above the fourth level of Qi Refining, the immortal cultivators are strong, but some ordinary warriors can hone their bodies to be extremely powerful with the nourishment of medicinal herbs, comparable to monsters! Immortal cultivators below the fourth level of Qi Refining have weak true qi, so when facing a strong warrior, they may not be able to defeat him even if they can cast some small spells.

The man in front of him was so energetic that he had obviously trained his body to be comparable to that of a low-level monster! That's right, without a strong foundation, how could the Li family possibly protect such a huge family business.

Looking at this very oppressive figure, Lu Luan smiled politely and said, "Uncle, I just want to go up and take a look, I have no other intentions."

"This is not a place for children to play, get out of here." The man ignored him.

"Hey." Lu Luan sighed softly, and a ball of fire appeared out of thin air in his hand. He smiled and asked, "Can I go up?"

"You are actually a cultivator?"

The man looked at him in great surprise, his eyes filled with envy, and then he said apologetically, "My dear, I'm sorry for what happened just now. Please go upstairs."

"No problem."

After nodding, he walked up.

The second floor seemed to be an auction, with seventy or eighty people sitting there, men and women, young and old. At this moment, they were discussing a fragment on the stage in front. Of course, there were also a dozen cultivators in the low-level Qi Refining stage.

Lu Luan saw a seat on the side ahead and walked over.

After taking a look at the small pieces in the woman's hand, he murmured in his heart: "These should be fragments of low-level magic weapons. They are very sharp. If embedded in weapons, they can cut iron like mud. No wonder they are worth so much silver."

"I'll pay sixty taels!"

Some people who like it are still bidding.

"Sixty taels?" Lu Luan shook his head. Even for a cultivator at the first or second level of Qi Refining, sixty taels was not a small amount. After all, it was almost worth three Essence Pills.

"Young Master, please have some fruit."

Not long after I sat down, a smart maid came over with a plate of fruit. She looked very pretty.

"There's still fruit to eat? Thank you."

Lu Luan was not polite either. He said thank you and put the plate beside him. He ate while looking at the food on the table.

Soon, this round ended.

"My dear friends, this is a spiritual herb collected by Mr. Li, the Xiangyang grass, which is given to the children of the Li family for martial arts training. If you are interested, you can exchange it with silver, or you can also use Jingyuan Pills."

Next, an old man with gray hair stood up on the stage, holding something and speaking.

"Sunflower?"

Lu Luan muttered in his heart, this is a medicinal herb with a slight spiritual charm. Although he is interested in it, he came here with the purpose of picking up a bargain. How could he spend a large price to buy it?

He shook his head and ignored it.

"Fifty taels of silver."

"Fifty-five taels."

……

The bidding begins.

"Ah~"

A quarter of an hour later, Lu Luan yawned lazily and was almost asleep. Although there were a lot of good things, he was not interested.

"Next is a piece of strange wood, please take a look, my friends."

The old man on the stage took out a fist-sized piece of rotten wood from a treasure box.

The medicine bug in his palm suddenly moved.

"nice one!"

Lu Luan instantly became alert and emitted a strange light. Without the need for the drug insect to react, he could feel the blazing spiritual charm emanating from this thing.

"Butler He, are you guys trying to fool us with a piece of rotten wood?"

Some people shouted in surprise that they were just ordinary people with some wealth and naturally could not see the mystery of this thing.

The old man smiled and said, "My friends, this is not an ordinary piece of wood. Do you know why Mr. Li's wife can still give birth to children even though she is 70 years old? It's because she has been sleeping with this piece of wood as a pillow for many years. Now, for the sake of her grandson, she has to give it up."

"Is it so magical?" Everyone didn't believe it.

The old man ignored their objections and said, "The starting price is three hundred taels of silver."
