I am devoted to the Tao

Chapter 118: From Undercover in Buddhism, to Causing Trouble in Buddhism, and then to Destroying Buddhism
"If it's not real sun water, what is it?"

"Last month's top lot was a pair of low-grade Taoist twin swords. The value of the liquid in this crystal bottle is probably not inferior to that treasure."

"A pair of low-grade Dao flying swords would cost at least six million spirit stones. Why is the spirit water so expensive?"

There was a lot of discussion in the auction hall. Madam Hongfu smiled slightly, raised her hand and pointed, and the cork on the mouth of the crystal bottle flew up.

In an instant, a terrifying aura swept out, as if the mighty power of heaven had descended, shocking people's hearts and minds.

"No doubt about it! This is the lightning liquid recorded in ancient books!"

"Thunder Tribulation Liquid! Is another peerless genius emerging from my Qingyuan Realm?!"

Exclamations came from the box.

"What is Thunder Tribulation Liquid?" Jiang Chuan asked.

Jin Yingyang replied, "Every time one breaks through the Eight Realms of Thunder Tribulation, they will suffer punishment from Heaven. But just as there are beggars and emperors among mortals, the punishments Heaven bestows upon each cultivator are also different."

"If it's a peerless genius, a Heavenly Thunder Pool will evolve. But tribulation is also a blessing. The Thunder Tribulation Liquid is the liquid in the Heavenly Thunder Pool. It contains the power of heavenly thunder and blessing. It can not only nourish the body, but also temper the soul. It is a treasure that is rarely seen in the ages!"

"As expected of a force backed by the Red Dust Demon Sect, they can even get treasures like this!" Jiang Chuan said with emotion.

The calamity sent down by God to kill the unrivaled genius must be extremely dangerous.

Faced with such a disaster, one can still gain good fortune.

There have not been many monks like this throughout history!

Madam Hongfu smiled slightly and introduced, "This bottle of Thunder Tribulation Liquid belongs to Yan Feiyun, a disciple of Senior Fang Qingting from the Sword Palace. He stole it from the Sword Palace to help Senior Fang overcome his tribulation."

"I told you I wasn't stealing! It's just that my master is in seclusion, and I can't tell him."

A slightly dissatisfied voice came from a box near the corner.

Jiangchuan: "."

Are you sure your master won’t beat you to death when he comes out of seclusion?
Patriarch Ziyun said quietly, "As expected, every faction has its share of troublesome individuals."

"The auction begins now, with a starting price of three million spirit stones."

"Three million and one million spirit stones."

"Three million and two hundred thousand spirit stones."

"Four million spirit stones."

"Four million two hundred thousand spirit stones."

Jiang Chuan took a sip of the spiritual tea brought by the maid and spoke slowly.

Having refined the Silver Moon Dew, Jiang Chuan was very clear about the effect of the Thunder Tribulation Liquid.

Moreover, no matter whether he is practicing "Black Cloud Lightning Hand" or "Heavenly Tribulation Thunder", he needs a large amount of spiritual materials containing the power of thunder.

Therefore, Jiang Chuan decisively joined the bidding.

"Four and a half million spirit stones."

"Four million eight hundred thousand spirit stones."

"Five million spiritual stones."

"Five million and five hundred thousand spirit stones."

After the price exceeded five million, the price increase rate slowed down significantly.

Although the Thunder Tribulation Liquid is good, for most cultivators, even those in the seventh realm, the improvement in strength it brings is not as great as that of a mid-grade Taoist weapon.

A mid-grade Taoist flying sword costs about six million spirit stones.

But Jiang Chuan is different. He has too many magic weapons on him, so many that he does not have enough magic power to activate so many magic weapons.

"Five million eight hundred thousand spirit stones!"

As soon as Jiang Chuan finished speaking, the entire auction hall became silent.

"Five million eight hundred thousand spirit stones at a time!"

"Five million eight hundred thousand spirit stones twice!"

"Five million eight hundred thousand spirit stones three times! Congratulations to this fellow Taoist for obtaining the Thunder Tribulation Fluid!"

After Madam Hongfu announced the auction results, many monks at the auction stood up and left.

"Judging from his voice, he sounds like a young boy. Whose powerful offspring is this?"

"Not necessarily, I think it's some old weirdo pretending to be young!"

Crunch!

The door of the box was pushed open, and Madam Hongfu, the head of the Hongchen Pavilion, walked into the box with a maid holding the Thunder Tribulation Liquid.

"My name is Hong Fu, nice to meet you, Daoist Fellow Jiang."

"Greetings, Fellow Daoist Hongfu."

Jiang Chuan slowly stood up, and at the same time, the sword burial coffin flew out of the storage bag and landed in front of Madam Hong Fu.

"Jiang doesn't have that many spirit stones on him, so I'll use this Taoist artifact to pay the bill."

Madam Hongfu was not surprised by this, and she immediately assessed the value of the sword burial coffin with Jin Yingyang.

After some discussion, the two finally gave Jiangchuan a price of 7.6 million spirit stones.

In the simulation, the Linglong Pavilion in Jiuyuan Imperial Capital offered Jiangchuan 7.5 million spirit stones.

"This price is fair, so let's leave it at that. I'm going to pick out some spiritual materials with the remaining spirit stones."

As Jiang Chuan spoke, he controlled his magic power to transform it into a piece of blue paper, which fell in front of Madam Hong Fu.

Madam Hongfu glanced at it and said with a smile, "Fellow Daoist Jiang, my Hongchen Pavilion has all the spiritual materials here, but I don't have 50,000 kilograms of Star Energy Liquid. Only 30,000 kilograms are left."

"30,000 jin is 30,000 jin."

An incense stick later, Madam Hongfu brought the spiritual materials and 800,000 yuan that Jiangchuan needed.

Jiang Chuan put the spiritual materials and spiritual stones into the storage bag, hugged the Ziyun Patriarch, and left Hongchen Pavilion with the farewell of Madam Hongfu and Jin Yingyang.

Looking at Jiang Chuan's back, Madam Hongfu's eyes flickered slightly.

"This fellow Daoist Jiang is no ordinary person."

"There are Dao weapons in the Four Realms, and there should be more than one. Apart from the ancient books, I have only seen one like Fellow Daoist Jiang."

Jin Yingyang looked at Jiang Chuan with envy.

Although he is the deputy leader of Hongchen Pavilion, he does not have any Taoist weapon.

"Jiangchuan, it seems like someone is targeting you." Jiangchuan had just walked out of the street where Hongchen Pavilion was located and was about to find a cave to practice when he heard the voice of Ziyun Patriarch.

Jiang Chuan paused slightly, a cold light flashing in his eyes.

"It seems that I have been treated as a fat sheep."

He, Jiang, has the potential to be an Immortal Emperor. Killing a cultivator in the fifth realm is like killing a dog. In addition, he does not take the cultivators in the sixth realm seriously, including Ancestor Ziyun.

Even if a cultivator in the seventh realm is defeated, he can still run away.

Treating him as a fat sheep is like asking for death!
At this moment, a woman in white quickly walked behind Jiang Chuan.

The woman had waist-length black hair and an oval face with a hint of baby fat.

"My dear fellow Daoist, I am Ji Lan'er, the manager of Cang Yuan Pavilion. Cang Yuan Pavilion will open in a month. Not only will we be auctioning off many treasures, but we will also be selling many ancient caves. I hope you will come and visit us."

After Ji Lan'er finished speaking, she took out an invitation and handed it to Jiang Chuan.

Jiang Chuan looked at the invitation and his eyes twitched slightly.

He was ready to kill someone, but you told me that you wanted to ask me to buy treasure.

After receiving the invitation, Jiang Chuan asked, "Why did Fellow Daoist Ji send an invitation to Jiang?"

Jiang Chuan seemed to be asking casually, but actually he wanted to find out how Ji Lan'er knew about his purchase of treasures such as the Thunder Tribulation Liquid.

"I know that today is the Hongchen Pavilion auction, so I have been waiting here for a long time. I will give an invitation to every fellow Taoist who comes out." Ji Lan'er replied.

Jiangchuan: "."

I have imagined that you, Cangyuan Pavilion, bribed the cultivators of Hongchen Pavilion to obtain information about me, a big client, and now you tell me that you are casting a wide net?

Is it true that real business struggles are all plain and simple?
After saying goodbye to Ji Lan'er, Jiang Chuan came to an inn called Yunshui Palace and rented a high-quality cave for a month.

In the courtyard with black tiles and white walls, there is a blooming peach tree, and under the peach tree there is a clear spring that flows out from the ground.

The rich spiritual energy turned into white mist, lingering in the courtyard, adding a sense of ethereality to the courtyard.

Sniffing the fragrance of the flowers, Jiangchuan walked into the house and sat down cross-legged.

With a slap of the storage bag, three yellow gourds half the height of a person flew out of the storage bag.

Three yellow gourds, each filled with gold, silver, and blue liquid.

"Refining!"

Jiang Chuan uttered a word lightly, and the Sun Yuan Qi Liquid, Moon Yuan Qi Liquid and Star Yuan Qi Liquid flew out from the three yellow gourds respectively.

Taoist books say that there are three treasures in the sky: the sun, the moon, and the stars.

The earth has three treasures: water, fire and wind.

Humans have three treasures: essence, energy and spirit.

The simplest way to extract the pure energy needed to practice "Purifying Turbidity and Refining Heaven and Earth" is naturally to use supreme magic power to cut off a piece of the sky.

Jiang Chuan naturally did not have such magical powers, so he could only obtain pure energy by refining the Sun Yuan Qi Liquid, Moon Yuan Qi Liquid and Star Yuan Qi Liquid.

After refining his energy for half an hour, a clear voice sounded in Jiang Chuan's mind.

[Ding! The simulation times have been reset. Do you want to start the simulation?]

Without any hesitation, Jiang Chuan started the simulation.

[Ding! Simulation begins. Now randomly matching the host with a dating simulation partner.]

[Ding! Match successful.]

[The romantic partner for this simulated match is Lingxucheng Shi Yixue.]

"Shi Yixue, the younger generation of Lingxu City doesn't seem to have heard of this name. Could it be that she matched with an elder of Lingxu City?"

Jiang Chuan thought about it while pinching the Baoshan Seal in his hand.

Suddenly, Jiang Chuan felt as if his hands were connected to another vast and boundless world.

The next moment, Jiang Chuan's consciousness was directly pulled into it.

The golden treasure mountain that rises from the sky and reaches the clouds appears in Jiangchuan's eyes again.

"Where are you? It's you."

The silver water tank flew in front of Jiang Chuan, and the large oval face on its surface showed a look of surprise.

"Senior Gang, do you still remember me?"

"Of course I remember. After all, I've seen a lot of smart people over the years, so when I suddenly see a stupid one, the impression is naturally deep." The water tank replied.

Jiangchuan: "."

You are stupid!
Your whole family is stupid!
Don't think that just because I'm just a wisp of divine consciousness and can't defeat you, you can talk nonsense.

When I, Jiang, have achieved success in my cultivation and come to Baoshan in my true form, I will definitely let you know how powerful my iron fist is!

Without taking any more care of the water tank, Jiangchuan bent his knees slightly, jumped up, and flew towards the treasure mountain.

Landing at the foot of Baoshan Mountain, Jiangchuan activated the contract and summoned the Ghost Rain Sword, Daytime Knife, Sky Thunder Purple Fire Furnace, Sky Seal and Big Sun God Bell.

Chi!Chi!Chi!
A moment later, the blue Sky Seal, the three-meter-high Sky Thunder Purple Fire Furnace, the silver Daytime Sword and the narrow Ghost Rain Sword flew over Jiangchuan's head.

"Boy, the last time you came to Baoshan, I noticed that you had the aura of magic skills and suspected that you were an undercover agent of the magic."

Gui Yujian spoke first: "Looking at your appearance now, my guess is right. You are the undercover agent of the Demonic Path."

"Senior, I am not an undercover agent of the Demonic Path." Jiang Chuan explained.

"We will not terminate the contract with you just because you are an undercover agent of the Demonic Path. After all, we cannot leave the Treasure Mountain." The Great Seal of the Sky said.

Tianlei Zihuolu echoed, "That's right. The demonic undercovers causing trouble for the Buddhist sect have nothing to do with us. In fact, if you can destroy the Buddhist sect and rescue us, we will be grateful to you!"

"I'm really not an undercover agent of the evil sect, and I don't want to bring disaster to Buddhism." Jiang Chuan tried to defend himself.

"I haven't denied wanting to destroy Buddhism."

The silver blade of the Daytime Sword shone with a cold light. "Boy, it seems you have great ambitions. Keep up the good work! I hope that one day, I can see you destroy the Buddhist sect!"

Jiangchuan: "."

No, why are you guys getting more and more outrageous?!
From being an undercover agent in Buddhism, to bringing disaster to Buddhism, and finally to destroying Buddhism.

I didn't know I had such a big goal!!!
"Ahem! Senior, I came here today mainly to learn some magical skills from you."

Jiang Chuan coughed twice to change the subject. Baoshan is the territory of Buddha Duobao Tathagata. Jiang Chuan was afraid that if he continued to speak, a palm would come down from the sky and smash him into pieces.
