Symbiotic panel, I am cultivating immortality in the world of immortality

Chapter 128 Spirit Stones Spent, Auction Planning Underway
Some creatures look like carp, but their tails are long like a dragon's, and they have an inverted triangular scale between their eyebrows.

"The spirit of water and marshland".

East Lake.

He squinted; the panel displayed their status—

【Name】：Donghu Shuiling
[Mood]: Curious, happy, playful
[Status]: A water spirit born from a body of water bestowed by the world, currently regulating the spiritual energy within the water.

[Can be bound]: Any type of elemental plant that can grow in water. After infusing a water elemental plant with life essence, it will be able to coexist with all aquatic elemental plants within a certain area of ​​water, depending on the amount of life essence.

—This binding feature is something Li Ye has never seen before. It has always been one-to-one, but now there is a one-to-one group feature.

Moreover, it seems to be able to provide an unlimited amount of life essence to spirit beasts that undergo changes.

His eyes gleamed, but in the blink of an eye, a gentle smile appeared on his face. He landed directly on the lake, stepped on the water, bent down, and gently touched the bold waters of East Lake.

The little creature knew that Li Ye was its master, and it proactively aligned the inverted triangle-shaped scales on its forehead with his fingers.

Extremely pure water energy instantly surged into Li Ye's body.

At the same time, it also strengthened his Water Control Technique.

"Very well-behaved." He also infused the little guy with a trace of pure spiritual energy from the Jianmu tree.

Shui Ling immediately began to swim comfortably, her long dragon tail trembling slightly, as if she were engaged in some abnormal exercise.

When the other water spirits saw that this guy was like this, they quickly surrounded him, fawning over Li Ye and transferring their spiritual energy to their master.

Li Ye accepted all the gifts without hesitation, giving each one some Jianmu spiritual energy, and also choosing one that looked good and infusing it with a thousand points of vitality essence.

My intention was to test the area, but the panel directly displayed: one fen (a unit of land area).

"..."

A thousand points of vitality essence only yielded one unit of land.

How many aquatic spiritual plants can be planted on a small plot of land? We also need to consider the concentration of spiritual energy within the water, whether it can withstand that much, and whether the plants will repel each other…

I estimate that planting two kinds of crops on a small plot of land would be the limit.

When Yuanling plants compete for spiritual energy, the competition is far more fierce than that between ordinary spiritual plants; a single misstep can result in mutual destruction.

The joy I felt just moments ago vanished instantly.

One thousand points for one fen of land? What a money-devouring tycoon! I currently get about ten thousand points of life essence a month. It would take me quite a long time to cover this hundred-acre lake.

"It's really not that simple."

He had anticipated this; such a special situation would certainly have some limitations. In any case, he had a long lifespan and would definitely obtain more life essence in the future, so he could take it slow.

What he needs to do now is buy some dragons and raise them in the lake.

Such a vast lake would be a waste if it weren't used to raise more fish.

After all... raising a dragon has always been his dream.

……

The Four Seasons School also describes a wide variety of types of dragons.

His first consideration was the Xuan Shui Jiao, since he had never raised a normal version of this type of dragon before, and the one he was raising now was a mutated variety.

However, the main function of this type of dragon is to maintain the order of the river and to modify the river's waters by mixing in the mysterious water.

Lakes are not very suitable.

So he could only shake his head and give up on the Xuan Shui Jiao, lingering on several other types of dragons.

Finally, he set his sights on a special type of dragon called the Cloud Mirage Dragon.

According to the description given in the Four Seasons Jade Disc, this kind of dragon is very gentle, even gentler than the Xuan Shui Jiao, and will not harm anyone even in the waters of the mortal world.

And the power they possess is to control clouds and rain.

Simply put, it means being able to control the water in a body of water to turn it into clouds and mist, and then bring rain to certain locations.

—The three stingrays I raised also had this ability, but as the cave grew larger, it was obviously impossible for the three stingrays to take care of all the spiritual plants.

He desperately needs a spirit beast to help him.

These cloud-shrouded mirage dragons are quite good.

Furthermore, these special dragons can produce a kind of mirage pearl that is generated in the clouds and mist, which is a main material for illusion arrays that array masters highly favor.

"One hundred thousand spirit stones..."

"Well."

He had already spent 360,000 spirit stones, and now he only had a little over 700,000 left. Even if he wanted to buy more, he could only afford seven.

"Let's buy three to try first." He looked at his spirit stones, which had decreased by another 300,000, and exchanged for three long, white dragons, each about three zhang long, with scales swirling around them like clouds.

The dragon looked really good. He was very satisfied with the ethereal and heroic aura of the little white dragon, and the heartache of consuming spirit stones lessened a little.

"I have over 400,000 left, I might as well spend it all today..."

Li Ye gritted his teeth and continued to look at the catalog of aquatic spirit creatures and spirit beasts. He spent another 200,000 to buy Light Ripple Spirit Lotus, Box Jellyfish, and a large number of various kinds of spirit fish fry.

Finally, a waterway was drawn from the river where the Xuan Shui Jiao lived, leading directly to this place. The beavers were instructed to build dams in the waterway and release a batch of Xuan Jing Shu Jiao Algae regularly to feed the creatures in the lake.

That left him with 200,000 spirit stones.

He planned to use these spirit stones to buy a large number of various fruit trees to plant in his cave, and also to buy seeds of some major crops to cultivate a channel specifically for supplying Tianhe City.

After all, there are still some mortals over there waiting for him to feed them, and he can also exchange them for some unique materials from that area.

After he gradually planted a batch of fruit trees such as peaches, plums, apricots, and dates in the huge cave, he managed to bring some greenery to the originally barren land.

If we wait until they bloom and bear fruit, their fragrance will surely travel for miles.

But the price was that he spent all of his original one million spirit stones.

With his purse empty, Li Ye suddenly felt somewhat unsafe.

I desperately need some spirit stones to fill my pockets.

He didn't plan to sell too much of the Purple Oil Spring Rain at once, so he could only clear out his inventory from this period of time.

……

"You said you want to hold an auction?" Su Ya was slightly taken aback when she heard Li Ye's purpose.

Then he looked at him with a meaningful gaze and smiled:

"Junior brother, did you buy a lot of things in the cave?"

Having spent a long time together, Li Ye naturally understood the unspoken meaning behind Su Shixiong's words, and immediately asked in return, "It seems that you, senior brother, have also had such embarrassing times."

"Each each other."

Su Ya stood up: "If you want to hold an auction, I can take you to our Four Seasons Market, which is responsible for welcoming guests and opening it to the public."

Sigh, it must have been tough for you.

"If it weren't for that ban, you could have sold it directly to a sect, and the sect certainly wouldn't have treated you unfairly. But now you have no choice but to sell it to outsiders."

The reason he gave is also why Li Ye couldn't hand over his materials to Ye Tang in large quantities for Ye Tang to sell.

I've heard that some cultivators have already set their sights on the gourd oil and lotus pills that can be obtained by entering the sect, and they can't wait to try these new things. Among them are quite a few Golden Core cultivators.

This led to Li Ye and his senior brothers and sisters discussing and deciding to only take out enough for them to practice and experiment; they really didn't dare to take more than that.

Li Ye shook his head indifferently: "That's not a big deal. I really can't supply in large quantities right now. Giving to anyone or not would be troublesome, so it's better to do it this way."

I'd also like to collaborate with my fellow disciples to create some elixirs, magical artifacts, and formations using my materials. We'll split the profits fifty-fifty, how about that?

“You don’t need to tell us, all the fellow disciples will agree.” Su Ya couldn’t help but laugh: “You always think of helping us out whenever there’s something good. The treasures you make from those materials will definitely be in high demand.”

"Let's go, I'll take you to meet your fellow disciples."

He brought Li Ye to Ye Hall, rang the bell, and quickly gathered his fellow disciples, explaining Li Ye's idea.

The senior students, of course, had no objections and were quite excited.

Because of what happened earlier, they won't be selling much anymore, and one order has already been closed before it was even signed.

This means they don't know the specific feedback from the outside world. This auction is actually a good opportunity. At worst, they can hide the name and just say it's an auction for cultivators of the Four Seasons Sect.

No one will know who actually auctioned these items.

They immediately began discussing what items would be best to sell at the auction.

They already knew and had tested the properties of these products, and after some discussion, they quickly finalized the list.

The elixirs include the Lotus Spirit Nourishing Pill refined by Lotus Pill, the Heavenly Origin Gourd Pill refined from gourd oil and gourd, as well as the Gourd Body Tempering Pill and Golden Red Beauty Nourishing Pill, among other miscellaneous elixirs.

The magical artifacts include gourd fragments and gourd oil that are refined into various functions, storage bags made from hollow silkworm silk that can temporarily store living things, and other magical items.

The formation is a bit simpler, drawn with ink from raw potatoes and ink from silkworms.

The two senior brothers who were also plant masters brought out some spiritual materials to sell together, but of course, they couldn't split the profits 50/50.

At most, it's just a way to sell them together at the auction, which also enriches the types of auctions.

In addition, there are some scattered raw spiritual materials; let's see if anyone needs them.

After discussing the matter, Li Ye followed Su Ya through the spatial array of the Hall of Affairs to the Four Seasons Market, located in the Eastern Region of the Four Seasons Sect, which welcomed guests.

This market town is extremely luxurious. The ground is paved entirely with warm, white jade, and it can accommodate ten carriages traveling side by side. On both sides of the road are shops contracted by cultivators from the Four Seasons Sect and other cultivators.

Each shop is a three-story building, entirely constructed of wood, with carved beams and painted rafters. Even the pagodas and lanterns in the corners of the buildings are exquisitely crafted, as if meticulously crafted by a master.

The buildings are separated by arrays and spiritual plants, and all kinds of exotic flowers and herbs bloom in flower beds everywhere. Coupled with the ever-clear sky, the entire market is very lively, and the number of cultivators coming and going is so great that they can be said to be shoulder to shoulder.

This reminded Li Ye of some less-than-pleasant memories from the autumn harvest festival.

"Are there that many cultivators here?" he asked Su Ya telepathically.

"Yes, this is the only market open to the outside world for our Four Seasons Sect. Many cultivators come here to hunt for treasures and buy all kinds of spiritual materials."

Su Ya pointed to some pavilions in the distance: "Look over there, there are shops of sects such as the Heavenly Vein Sword Mountain of the Southern Region, the Qiongguan Mountain of the Central Region, and the Forging Spirit Sect of the Northern Region."

"They also offer cave rental services here. Look at those continuous mountain ranges and pavilions in the distance, they are all caves. This business is quite good."

Li Ye nodded repeatedly as he looked on, but suddenly noticed a building not far away that seemed to be emitting black mist, with the words "Blood Spirit Sect" written on its plaque.

The attic of the Demonic Path?
He quickly asked his senior brother.

“That is indeed the Demonic Sect, but they are a Demonic Sect under our supervision, responsible for researching some spiritual plants related to blood,” Su Ya replied.

"Is it really okay to open a shop here so casually?"

"Why not? Even Buddhism says that the sea of ​​suffering is boundless, but turning back is the shore. The Blood Spirit Sect took the initiative to surrender and even helped us deal with three major demonic sects. Of course, we should reward them."

Su Ya didn't look over there much. He quickly led Li Ye to a pavilion called "Four Seasons Treasure Pavilion" in the center of Four Seasons Ward and stepped inside.

A familiar sense of spatial shifting washed over me.

When Li Ye came to his senses, there was already a Qingqiu fox cultivator in front of him with a smile on his lips and a fluffy red tail behind him.

The cultivator's fox ears twitched slightly, and a joyful smile immediately appeared on her beautiful face, conveying warmth without being overly enthusiastic.

"Greetings, senior brothers. This is your younger sister, Hu Tong."

He chuckled lightly and said, "I wonder if you two have come to our Four Seasons Treasure Pavilion to buy or sell treasures, or to hold an auction?"

“Hold an auction,” Li Ye said.

"I see. So, do you two want to put up a sign—that is, display your names and status—or are you going to auction off yourselves with your identities hidden?"
This treasure pavilion will deliver all the items auctioned by the two individuals to every fellow Daoist who wishes to participate in the auction.

"Hidden identity auction. This is our list, along with the treasure seals provided by the Alchemy Hall, Weapon Forging Hall, Array Hall, and Spirit Plant Hall."

Li Ye handed over a list.

Hu Tong carefully examined the list, his face revealing undisguised surprise. The list was full of rare and precious medicinal herbs, along with the authentication seals of the four halls within the sect.

Who exactly are these two senior brothers? How could they possibly produce such precious and rare items?

A fleeting question crossed her mind.

However, as a member of the Qingqiu Fox Clan registered with the Four Seasons Sect, she knew very well that there were certain things she absolutely could not ask too many questions about, and she absolutely could not reveal any secrets.

But this didn't stop her from wearing an even warmer smile:
"These treasures are all rare items. I will make arrangements for the two of you immediately. The auction is expected to be held within three days."

"If you two senior brothers don't mind, you can come and experience the Qingqiu Peach Blossom Spring in our Four Seasons Treasure Pavilion."

"Once everything is arranged, my sister will personally come to remind you."

She smiled brightly and gently pushed open a door behind her.
