Following the directions of the Wanbaolou manager, Han Li arrived at an underground trading fair. There were many cultivators coming and going, and their internal magical power was unfathomable. They were obviously all Foundation Establishment stage cultivators.

Just as Han Li was looking around, a hearty laugh came from not far away.

"Fellow Daoist Han, it's been a long time! How have you been?"

Looking in the direction from which the sound came, one could see a middle-aged Foundation Establishment cultivator standing not far away, looking him up and down. After confirming that it was indeed Han Li, he walked towards him.

This person was none other than Fellow Daoist Wen, who had met Han Li several times.

"So it's Fellow Daoist Wen. We parted in haste last time and I was unable to speak with you. Please forgive me."

Han Li's eyes flickered slightly, his gaze uncertain, before he suddenly smiled and cupped his hands in greeting to the newcomer.

"Hahaha... Fellow Daoist Han, you're too kind. It's been several months since we last met, and your cultivation has improved so much. I really don't know how you cultivate."

Upon hearing this, Han Li chuckled, exchanged a few polite words, and then fell silent.

"Fellow Daoist, are you here to participate in the Wuling Trade Fair as well? I've heard that there are many good things at this trade fair, with all kinds of rare and precious items."

"If there's anything you like, just tell me, brother. I, Wen, have a certain status in Wuling City and a good relationship with the organizers of Wanbaolou. Giving Fellow Daoist Han a 5% discount is no problem."

The man with the name on his head laughed and led Han Li on a tour of the entire trade fair. He patted Han Li on the shoulder and said...

"Fellow Daoist Wen, is there anything to say about the Wuling City Trade Fair?"

Han Li smiled, glanced at the middle-aged man in front of him without making a sound, and asked.

"The Wuling City Trade Fair is an annual grand event for Foundation Establishment cultivators. Here you can find everything from top-tier magic weapons and cultivation techniques to rare materials."

"The trade fair is divided into two parts. The first part is an auction hosted by Wanbaolou. Hehe, which cultivator who can reach the Foundation Establishment stage doesn't have some shady things in their hands?"

“These items can all be consigned to Wanbaolou for auction, with a commission rate of 100 to 1, which is quite reasonable. Cultivators participating in the auction do not need to pay an entrance fee, but if they purchase items, they will need to pay a certain commission rate.”

"Those who can come here are usually Foundation Establishment cultivators, so this amount of money is nothing to them."

"After the auction, the cultivators will trade with each other. These transactions are mostly barter, based entirely on individual preferences, and the auction house will not charge any fees."

The man surnamed Wen smiled and patiently explained to Han Li.

"Aren't you afraid that someone might be tempted by the wealth and kill you to steal it?"

Han Li paused, his gaze falling on the stands in the center of the auction, and said in a deep voice.

"Fellow Daoist Han need not worry about this. Every cultivator participating in the trade fair will wear a Concealing God Mask. This mask is made from the remains of a Level 3 demonic beast, the Shocking God Spider, and has the miraculous effect of blocking divine sense detection."

"The remains of a single Divine Spider can be refined into hundreds or even thousands of Hidden God Masks. I happen to have an extra one, so I'll give it to Fellow Daoist Han!"

As he spoke, the man surnamed Wen took out a black mask from his pocket and handed it to Han Li.

"In that case, thank you very much, Fellow Daoist Wen."

After taking the mask from the man surnamed Wen, he carefully examined it and, after confirming that there was nothing wrong with it, put it into his spare storage bag.

"Hahaha... Fellow Daoist Han is too kind..."

After exchanging pleasantries with Han Li, the man surnamed Wen was led to the front desk to collect his VIP lounge number.

Han Li was assigned to VIP Building No. 88. It should be noted that there were only about one or two hundred VIP buildings in the entire auction.

Foundation Establishment cultivators are not as numerous as Qi Refining cultivators.

At most, only a few dozen people attend each auction. Even with some good items at this auction, according to Han Li's observation, there are only a little over a hundred people.

It seems that the chances of finding the Divine Yin Stone needed to refine the Soul Nourishing Bell are probably not very high.

The entire underground auction house was hundreds of feet in size, like a Bagua diagram, extending outwards in all directions, with various tiered pavilions standing tall.

These pavilions are elegantly decorated, with chairs and incense burners inside, and intricate carvings that exude a sense of grandeur and luxury.

Han Li was in VIP Building No. 88, located in the back area of ​​the auction house. With his early Foundation Establishment stage divine sense, he could just cover the entire auction house.

As soon as they sat down, several female cultivators at the Qi Refining stage, carrying tea, gracefully entered and stood on either side with their hands clasped.

These female cultivators in the Qi Refining stage, though not as stunningly beautiful as Feng Yuye, were quite pleasing to the eye, with their delicate and charming appearances.

Especially their age; they looked only seventeen or eighteen, similar in age to the youngest sister in the family.

"This humble girl, Youlan, greets Senior!"

One of the girls, dressed in purple, stepped forward and bowed to Han Li.

Han Li nodded, silently gazing at the auction stands below.

After receiving Han Li's affirmation, the woman who called herself Youlan walked lightly behind Han Li and began to massage her shoulders and back.

"What are you doing?"

Han Li didn't turn around, but simply said something.

"It was the manager of Wanbaolou who instructed us to do this..."

Seeing that Han Li was somewhat displeased, the woman named Youlan quickly stopped what she was doing and said to Han Li with trepidation.

"No need. I have never been used to being served. Go and rest over there. Don't worry about me. I will let you know if anything happens."

Seeing the other person's panicked look, Han Li smiled and gave her a kind smile, indicating that she didn't need to be so nervous and could just sit aside.

"this......"

Upon hearing this, Youlan was taken aback.

"And you guys, stop standing there like idiots, sit down!"

Han Li waved his hand, and the wooden chairs that were originally next to him flashed with light and landed lightly on both sides, gesturing for them to sit down quickly.

"Brother Han invited you to sit, so please sit down!"

Just as the women looked at each other, hesitant and undecided, a silvery laugh came from afar.

A glamorous woman dressed in white walked in through the door. The moment Han Li saw her, he couldn't help but twitch his lips.

A glamorous woman gracefully approached and sat down directly next to Han Li, her beautiful eyes scanning him up and down.

"Miss Lin, it's you?"

Han Li was a little stunned, then realized what was happening and cupped his hands in greeting.

Upon hearing Lin Muxue's words, the maids sat down in their chairs, curiously examining the green-robed cultivator before them, a strange glint in their eyes.

You have to understand, those Foundation Establishment stage seniors used to treat them terribly. If they didn't serve them well in the slightest, they would be beaten or scolded.

This was the first time they had encountered a Foundation Establishment stage senior with such a kind attitude. Given their age, it was inevitable that they would have feelings of first love, so they couldn't help but take a few more glances at Han Li.

"Why can't it be me? It's just that every time I see Brother Han, I'm always quite surprised. It's only been a few months since we last met, and you've already become a Foundation Establishment cultivator."

Lin Muxue's beautiful eyes were like autumn waves, and her face carried a gentle smile, with three parts charm and seven parts aloofness, making her look quite unique.

"Ahem, Miss Lin is too kind. I was just lucky and managed to successfully establish my foundation."

Han Li was somewhat embarrassed, but still maintained a calm and composed demeanor.

"What is it that Fellow Daoist Han has come to buy? Perhaps this humble woman can help you out!"

Lin Muxue smiled and said.

"Does Miss Lin know anything about the Divine Yin Stone and Soul-Nourishing Wood?"

Han Li nodded, poured himself and Lin Muxue a cup of tea, and slowly asked.

"Divine Yin Stone is a top-grade material for refining extremely Yin attributes. Even in previous auctions, the probability of it appearing is not high. Perhaps it can only be obtained through barter."

"As for Soul-Nourishing Wood, this material is also rare, but Brother Han is lucky that it happens to be available in the upcoming auction. As for the price... the starting price is seven hundred spirit stones, and the final transaction price should be around one thousand spirit stones."

Lin Muxue smiled gently and said to Han Li.

Upon hearing this, Han Li nodded.

Finding the Soul-Nourishing Wood is quite lucky; at least they didn't leave empty-handed.

As for the Divine Yin Stone, you can only try your luck.

"Brother Han, won't you ask why I've come to seek you out?"

Seeing that Han Li remained silent, Lin Muxue couldn't contain her impatience and spoke with a slightly resentful tone.
