Immortality and Cultivation: This old man seeks enlightenment through mere survival.

Hearing news about the Black Soil Mountains again, Lu Zaian still felt a pang of sadness.

I never imagined that the Spirit Medicine Valley would actually be wiped out.

Luckily I slipped away early...

The auction will begin tomorrow.

With the spirit stones I've accumulated so far, it's still quite difficult to bid for a Foundation Establishment spiritual item..."

Lu Zaian's eyes were deep and mysterious. In the past three months, his "Ghostly Netherworld Tribulation" had made further progress, and he had successfully visualized and passed through the second Wood Tribulation.

Now, his soul power has surged to 90%, almost doubling!

He earned more than two thousand spirit stones by selling the Clearing Miasma Pill.

However, in the Desolate Swamp City, spirit stones are earned quickly, but also spent quickly...

Now, Lu Zaian only has about four thousand yuan left, including his previous savings.

Fortunately, Lu Zaian's body refinement cultivation has now reached the ninth level of perfection.

If it weren't for the pursuit of stability.

He can attempt to break through to the Body Refinement and Foundation Establishment stage at any time.

At the same time, his Qi Refining cultivation is about to break through to the ninth level.

In addition, Lu Zaian also hatched the eggs of the six-winged venomous centipede.

And it was named "Xiaohan".

Currently, even when it's in the spirit beast pouch, it's still just a low-grade, first-tier spirit pet.

"The price of ordinary Qi Refining and Foundation Establishment spiritual items is around three thousand spirit stones."

It might rise to around five thousand at the auction.

With my current strength and wealth, I might not be able to acquire it, and I might not even be able to protect it…

The auction in Huangze City attracted countless eyes, with Foundation Establishment forces of all sizes flocking to Huangze City.

Even with the city lord of Huangze City in charge.

Even that Core Formation cultivator might not be able to guarantee the safety of every cultivator in the city.

"Perhaps I can bid on a suitable second-tier demon beast blood essence first, which is much cheaper than a Foundation Establishment spiritual item."

"With the power of the Blood Spirit Pearl, I'll break through to the Body Refinement and Foundation Establishment stage first; things will be much easier then."

It is much easier for cultivators to find materials of the same level as themselves.

After all, they're from different circles.

Foundation Establishment spiritual items are hard to find and buy for Qi Refining cultivators, but Foundation Establishment cultivators always have a way to obtain them.

.........

The next day.

The auction will be held in the inner city of Huangze City.

The inner city is rarely open to Qi Refining cultivators on ordinary days.

Only disciples and relatives of Foundation Establishment cultivators are allowed to enter.

However, some Qi Refining cultivators will be allowed to enter during the auction.

However, those in the Qi Refining stage need to have their qualifications verified before entering the inner city.

Only cultivators at the Qi Refining stage with a net worth of over three thousand spirit stones can be placed in the inner city.

Most of these cultivators are in the late Qi Refining stage, or are disciples of sects or families, and they can also generate some revenue for the auction...

Of course, the main targets of the auction are still those who have completed the Foundation Establishment and major repairs.

Lu was arranging for the team to enter the inner city after verifying their credentials.

An even richer aura of heaven and earth wafts towards you.

There are relatively few shops on both sides of the street, but each shop occupies a large area.

"Lingbao Society, Jinyufang, Caomu Xiantang, Miaofaxuan..."

Each of these large stores is backed by a powerful foundation.

They opened their shop in the desolate city; they've probably made a fortune by now.

Lu Zaian was overwhelmed with admiration and sighed deeply.

The auction venue was the home of a company called "Baihua Chamber of Commerce".

The spacious, trapezoidal interior space is large enough to accommodate tens of thousands of people.

Lu Zaian chose the most ordinary Qi Refining cultivator area.

There are private rooms further up.

Those sitting inside were all Foundation Establishment cultivators.

Powerful auras emanated unrestrainedly from the private room.

Like a surging ocean tide!

Lu Zaian was slightly uneasy.

This was the first time he had ever seen so many Foundation Establishment cultivators.

Not only him, but the Qi Refining cultivators in the surrounding seats also had solemn expressions and were cautious in their words and actions.

They dared not overstep their bounds in the slightest.

They were afraid of attracting the attention of some eccentric Foundation Establishment cultivator.

This is an oppressive force emanating from a higher level of existence...

"Brother, that old dog Lu is here too!"

Not far away, the three leaders of the Three Tripods Pavilion were also sitting in ordinary seats.

Zhao Feng's venomous triangular eyes spotted Lu Zaian immediately.

In the past three months, Lu Zaian has taken away at least two thousand spirit stones from the Three Cauldrons Pavilion's market share.

This greatly displeased Zhao Feng...

"Ignore that guy for now. Just don't attract any extra attention at the auction. As long as we safely acquire the Foundation Establishment spiritual item, we'll consider it a success!"

Chen Kui glanced at Lu Zaian, his face as calm as a still lake, as if he were looking at a stranger.

But only his two brothers, who knew him well, knew that Chen Kui harbored a burning anger within him...

The Foundation Establishment Spiritual Object is the blazing fuel that ignites that fire.

"They've come too. Looks like they're thinking the same thing as me..."

Lu Zaian naturally noticed the look in Chen Kui's eyes.

He did not use body-refining techniques to change his skeletal appearance or wear a straw hat to conceal his identity.

After all, Lu Zaian was not afraid of Qi Refining cultivators, so he didn't need to pretend.

Foundation Establishment cultivators could easily see through his disguise, which only aroused unnecessary suspicion.

A quarter of an hour later.

A graceful woman walked up to the center of the wide platform.

Her figure was graceful and voluptuous, and every move she made seemed to be able to captivate the soul, causing most of the cultivators present to swallow their saliva involuntarily.

It's a charm technique?

Lu Zaian was secretly alarmed.

His soul power is now nearly twice that of an ordinary Qi Refining cultivator.

Looking at that woman, he could even feel an inexplicable surge of lust rising in his lower abdomen.

This woman is at least a Foundation Establishment stage expert!

"Oh! The Bee and Flower Fairy!"

"The Bee and Flower Fairy!! The Bee and Flower Fairy!!"

"..."

Meanwhile, most of the Qi Refining cultivators in the arena, under the influence of the charm spell, were already frantically calling out the woman's name.

This shows its popularity.

The Foundation Establishment cultivators in the private room were naturally unaffected, but they were quite surprised.

"The Bee Flower Fairy, it turns out she's the one hosting the auction this time."

"It is said that the Hundred Flowers Merchant Guild has six Foundation Establishment Fairies, and the Bee Flower Fairy is at least in the top three. I wonder if it is true or not?"

"A difficult woman."

"Hmph, shameless bitch, as a Foundation Establishment cultivator, she behaves so dissolutely in front of a bunch of juniors... She really damages the dignity of Foundation Establishment cultivators!"

The Bee Flower Fairy smiled gracefully, like a delicate flower slowly blooming on the stage.

She never cared about what people thought of her...

Whether it's good or bad.

As long as the monks are emotional, it will only intensify the auction.

The Hundred Flowers Chamber of Commerce can also earn more profits.

"Ladies and gentlemen, I hereby declare the Hundred Flowers Auction officially open!"

As the alluring voice of the Bee and Flower Fairy spread.

The first item was also displayed to the public.

"A top-grade first-tier Purple Jade, long-term wear can promote the growth of magical power, regardless of attributes, suitable for all cultivators, starting bid 800 spirit stones!"
