Changsheng Xiuxian: I can see through everything

Chapter 256 Chamber of Commerce Auction (Subscription Request)

Out of the practice room.

Chen Xuan came to the beach alone.

He walked slowly into the sea.

Sure enough, I have a particularly friendly feeling towards the sea water.

He seemed to feel that extremely tiny elites were dancing happily around his body.

Silently practicing the water-controlling ability.

The scene in front of Chen Xuan suddenly changed.

All the sea water, like layers of soldiers, completely obeyed his command and allowed him to drive it.

As the divine thought moved, the sea water automatically split into a waterway.

The flow of water follows his will.

This allowed him to move freely in the water.

It is even more convenient and faster than on shore.

Using the water-controlling ability requires a certain amount of mana and mental energy.

With Chen Xuan's current magical powers, he can only barely control the sea water within a hundred feet.

In fact, it is very strong.

Seawater can not only be used for attack, but also for defense, reducing the opponent's attack power.

A hundred feet of sea water is enough to offset 70% to 80% of the attack power of a foundation-building cultivator.

"Now, I am in the sea. Even a cultivator who has reached the perfection of the foundation building stage can't do anything to me!"

Chen Xuan pondered in his heart.

The water control ability enhanced his affinity and control over water aura.

It's time to strengthen the practice of "The Art of Leading Water from the Sea".

Looking at the vast ocean, Chen Xuan's heart was filled with emotions and he was full of confidence in the future.

……

Ten days later, Chen Xuan walked out of the Jinyang Sect's Sutra Library with a look of disappointment on his face.

Behind him was the apologetic face of Feng Yuan, the deacon here.

Here, he did not find suitable lightning and water escape techniques.

It’s not that there isn’t one.

After all, it is one of the seven major sects of Song State.

He collected seven books of lightning escape techniques and twenty-seven books of water escape techniques.

However, the quality of the thunder and water escape techniques collected by the Jinyang Sect is average.

Chen Xuan used his divine eyes to check and found that his spiritual perception was extremely low.

Insignificant.

This forced him to give up.

When it comes to the foundation-building stage, any kind of martial arts is related to one's life and property.

Don't practice randomly.

Or don't practice.

If you want to practice, you must practice to a high level and develop supernatural powers.

The Jinyang Sect is famous for its gold and fire-based techniques.

It's normal that there are no high-grade lightning and water escape techniques.

Afterwards, Chen Xuan returned to Lingyun City and first went to meet the city lord Zhou Huaijing.

He presented a small gift, chatted about Wolong Island and Zhou Liqi's current situation, and had a simple meal at the City Lord's Mansion.

After leaving the City Lord's Mansion, he met Yu Qingsong who stayed there.

Yu Qingsong couldn't bear to leave the prosperity of Lingyun City, and even more so the little fairies in Tianxiang Pavilion.

Chen Xuan moved to Wolong Island and asked him to stay in Lingyun City to be responsible for the transactions of the Five Poison Sect and to gather information by the way.

It can be said that everyone is making the best use of their talents.

After explaining the transaction matters with the Five Poison Sect, Chen Xuan turned around and went to the Tianfu Chamber of Commerce.

"Escape technique?"

President Hu of Tianfu Chamber of Commerce personally received Chen Xuan.

"High-grade lightning and water escape techniques? I do have them."

"However, Lingyun City is a small city after all."

President Hu smiled and said, "If Elder Chen is free, you can go to Xuantian City for a stroll. Ten days later, our Tianfu Chamber of Commerce will organize an auction in Xuantian City."

"There should be something you want in there."

Hearing this, Chen Xuan was overjoyed.

Since President Hu said so, it must be true.

However, businessmen value profit.

It is normal that he is unwilling to hand over the treasures at the auction easily.

Xuantian City is the core immortal city of Xuantian Sect Mountain. It is said that there are millions of cultivators in the city, and Yuanying Zhenjun serves as the city lord.

At this time, Chen Xuan knew that Song State was only a lower-middle-level cultivation country in the Xuanyuan Continent.

In fact, it is just a small cultivation country.

Compared with Jin, Qi, Zhao and other countries in the central part of the continent, high-level spirit veins are scarce, and the number of Yuanying Zhenjun is less than one-tenth of them.

A cultivator who has just established his foundation is really nothing in Xuanyuan Continent.

Because of this, Chen Xuan would not travel rashly.

Safety first.

It's sad to say the least.

It has been more than a year since he moved to Wolong Island. After paying the sect taxes, there is little left of the island's income, which is only enough to support the expenses of his three wives and the monks who follow him.

Fortunately, thanks to the dividends from the insect breeding cooperation with the Five Poison Sect, he was able to save more than 100,000 spirit stones.

However, he had no idea whether this amount of spirit stones could be used to auction off the two books of escape techniques.

It should be enough.

After all, it is just a technique, not a comprehensive skill.

Now, Chen Xuan has nothing.

Only one scale of the primordial fish remains, which is used as an ornament to increase luck.

Fortunately, he is the owner of Wolong Island.

Chen Xuan originally came to discuss cooperation matters with Tianfu Chamber of Commerce.

The first thing is to cooperate in brewing and pre-selling low-level spirit wine.

President Hu carefully examined the grains of Yuan Zuling rice in his hand.

Next year, Chen Xuan will promote this Yuanzu spiritual rice on a large scale, and the planting area is expected to be 7,000 acres of low-grade spiritual fields.

If everything goes well, more than five million kilograms of this Yuanzu Ling rice can be harvested.

In addition to a portion reserved for the monks on the island, at least three million kilograms of spiritual rice can be used to brew spiritual wine. Even if the yield rate is three to one, it is still one million kilograms of spiritual wine.

The lowest grade Qingxing Spirit Wine costs five kilograms for one spirit stone.

Chen Xuan set a lower price, one spirit stone weighed seven kilograms.

This is also the income from the annual production of 140,000 spirit stones.

The key is that it happens every year, and the output will get higher and higher.

President Hu was quite interested in this.

In addition to providing the corresponding brewing equipment, a prepayment of 50,000 spirit stones was made as the start-up fee for the cooperation.

After the cooperation matters were settled, Chen Xuan accepted the invitation to the Tianfu Chamber of Commerce auction and left.

I must go to Xuantian City.

As long as there are high-grade lightning and water escape techniques, he will be determined to get them no matter the price, and will buy them first.

One hundred and fifty thousand spirit stones should be enough to buy two books on foundation-building techniques.

For this auction, Tianfu Chamber of Commerce has widely sent out invitations, and most of the bigwigs in Xuantian City will attend.

It was noon when Chen Xuan arrived at Xuantian City on the sect's airship.

Xuantian City is crowded with people and is prosperous.

Beside him, there was a young cultivator with a playful look on his face. It was Han Shaoyue, whom he happened to meet on the sect's airship.

Now, Han Shaoyue has become a disciple of a sect master, and his status is extraordinary, on par with Sun Zhengying and others.

However, he still acted humble in front of Chen Xuan.

With his introduction, Chen Xuan learned that only cultivators at the Foundation Establishment stage and above are eligible to participate in the Tianfu Chamber of Commerce's auction in Xuantian City.

Moreover, the auction was not held in Xuantian City, but in Su Family Castle, which was adjacent to Xuantian City.

To prevent accidents, the two of them changed their appearance.

The martial arts that Chen Xuan practiced had the effect of restraining his aura, so he simply dressed up as a Confucian scholar.

Han Shaoyue became his black-clad bodyguard.

The Su family, which co-hosted the auction with the Tianfu Chamber of Commerce, is one of the top cultivation families in Xuantian City. There are several Jindan Zhenren in the family, who hold real power in the Xuantian Sect.

At every auction, there was a Jindan Zhenren in charge, and there was never a mistake.

Chen Xuan and Han Shaoyue came to Sujiabao together.

Many guests came outside the Su Family Castle, and the foundation-building deacon who greeted them at the door was all smiling.

The two of them each handed over an invitation, and the Su family servants led them into the Su family castle.

With just one glance, Chen Xuan could sense the incredible power of Su Family Castle's protective formation.

A powerful spiritual shield enveloped the Su Family Castle, which covered an area of hundreds of square miles.

It is more powerful than his Wolong Island defensive formation, and should be a third-level defensive formation.

Even for a Jindan Zhenren, facing this protective formation, if he does not have a special weapon to break the formation, the attacks of ordinary spiritual weapons will be completely ineffective.

The auction hall is an extremely spacious living room. There are hundreds of small rooms on the second floor, which serve as the auction's private rooms.

Accompanied by the Su family's servants, Han Shaoyue and Chen Xuan walked into the auction hall and chose a box to sit in.

There are dedicated staff to serve you here, and you can get a quote without leaving your room.

Like them, most of the monks who came to the auction did not reveal their true faces and concealed their identities.

The guards of the Su family were on guard in all directions, and there were also dozens of cultivators from the Xuantian Sect and the Tianfu Chamber of Commerce patrolling everywhere.

Han Shaoyue poured a cup of spiritual tea and handed it to Chen Xuan.

While drinking the spiritual tea, Chen Xuan scanned the monks who came in with his spiritual sense.

They are all foundation-building cultivators, each in their own disguise.

Disguise is actually useless to Chen Xuan.

He has the ability of clairvoyance and can easily identify a cultivator by his aura.

Even so, Chen Xuan didn't take a close look.

Anyway, he didn't know any of them.

"This Su Family Castle has a joint auction with the Tianfu Chamber of Commerce every five years. They take 50% of each item auctioned, which really makes a lot of money!"

Han Shaoyue said with a smile.

"really."

Half a piece may not seem like much, but if you draw every piece every five years, it will accumulate over time and become a steady source of income.

When the auction was about to start, the Su family sent a member of the Foundation Establishment Clan to preside over the auction.

He cupped his hands, made a square salute, and said, "I am Su Zhifan of the Su family, in charge of this auction. I am grateful to everyone for coming here on behalf of the Su family!"

There was a burst of response from the audience!

"No, we are here for the treasures, each of us gets what we need!"

"The Su family has been hosting auctions for hundreds of years, and it has benefited many friends!"

"Let me first introduce the rules of the auction to all the new friends..."

Chen Xuan heard that one of the rules was that after the auction, the cultivators present could trade freely.

Chen Xuan was thoughtful about this.

He has the ability of clairvoyance and can definitely find bargains in free trades.

"No wonder the Tianfu Chamber of Commerce auction can attract so many foundation-building cultivators."

Chen Xuan sighed inwardly.

There are hundreds of foundation-building cultivators, including many independent cultivators who came from other places.

With all kinds of rare treasures and the supply and demand from hundreds of people, the trading volume will not be small.

Afterwards, Su Zhifan went straight to the point and started the auction.

"The next item up for auction is the second-level, top-grade martial arts technique, 'Formless True Art'!"

A disciple of the Su family came with a tray, on which was placed a book with an ancient cover.

"This skill is called the Formless True Skill. It transforms form into formlessness. When cultivated to a high level, it can shatter stone, split gold, and penetrate iron armor. It is extremely powerful!"

Su Zhifan excitedly introduced "The True Skill of Formless".

"Our Su family guarantees that this skill is the only authentic one, and there is absolutely no mistake!"

"The starting price is ten thousand spiritual stones."

"Each increase in price must not be less than one hundred spirit stones."

Su Zhifan's clear voice echoed throughout the hall.

"Eleven thousand spirit stones."

"Twelve thousand spirit stones"

As soon as Su Zhifan finished speaking, some anxious monks raised their signs and shouted out prices.

"It's a very common technique."

In the box, Han Shaoyue commented on "Wuxiang Zhengong".

"This skill originally belonged to the Immortal Wuxiang, but it only condensed into an ordinary gray pill."

Han Shaoyue said disdainfully.
