Mortal: Starting from replicating everything in Maple Valley

Yuanwu Guofang City.

Fang Mu set foot here again.

"Senior, do you not come to this market often?"

As soon as he stepped into the market, a young man approached him and tentatively asked a question.

"Yes."

This was Fang Mu's second time visiting the market, and he was indeed unfamiliar with it.

He simply nodded in acceptance, neither agreeing nor disagreeing; there was no need for him to deceive a mere Qi Refining cultivator.

Upon hearing this, the young man's face lit up with joy, and he said:

"In that case, if you need to make a purchase, you will definitely need a guide to show you the way. I, Wang Ziling, am not very talented, but I live in the market and am familiar with every road here. I am like a local and can give you directions."

Fang Mu understood; this person was Feng Xingzi.

Similar to a tour guide in a previous life.

They are responsible for guiding people who are unfamiliar with the layout of the market.

"That's easy. If you can really help me find the item I want, I won't treat you unfairly."

Fang Mu chuckled and immediately tossed down three spirit stones.

He was flattered and caught by Prince Ling.

He was overjoyed.

They knew a big customer had arrived.

His face immediately brightened, and he took the lead.

As he walked, he turned back and asked:

"Senior, you can now state your needs."

"I need the finest top-tier magic artifacts. Spirit stones are no problem, but the key is that the top-tier magic artifacts must be extremely powerful. Of course, if there are any pills that can enhance cultivation during the Foundation Establishment stage, that would be even better."

Fang Mu said slowly and deliberately.

Wang Ziling was able to maintain a calm expression even after hearing what was said earlier.

However, upon hearing the words "Foundation Establishment stage pills," he looked troubled.

He hesitated for a moment, then slowly said:

"To be honest, senior, I happen to know of a place that is a small, secret auction with many participants, including some Foundation Establishment experts like yourself."

Perhaps what your senior desires will appear there.

"Take me there."

Fang Mu's eyes lit up, and he spoke succinctly.

He followed behind Prince Ling, turning left and right, making everyone dizzy.

Finally, I stood at the entrance of a dilapidated, detached courtyard.

Prince Ling approached the door with a respectful expression and knocked.

The courtyard gate opened, and a middle-aged woman of average appearance walked out.

The woman remained silent, her scrutinizing gaze fixed on Prince Ling, awaiting his next words.

Wang Ziling whispered a few words in the woman's ear, and as he spoke, he stepped aside to make way for Fang Mu behind him.

The woman glanced at Fang Mu a few times, then finally became respectful and said:

"Since you are a Foundation Establishment senior, you are naturally qualified to participate in that secret gathering. As for you, Prince Ling, you may leave now."

Upon hearing this, Prince Ling turned and left.

As she passed by Fang Mu, she didn't forget to give him a reassuring look.

"Senior, please come in."

The woman stepped aside to make way for her, gesturing for her to proceed.

Entering the courtyard, following behind the woman, we passed through the main hall and arrived at an unremarkable spot.

With a wave of her hand, the woman revealed a dark hole in the ground.

Without much hesitation, the woman jumped down and entered the cave.

After a moment's thought, Fang Mu followed him into the cave.

The two continued along the sloping tunnel.

After walking, we stopped in front of a stone gate, which marked the end of the road.

"Senior, this is the place. Please come in. As for me, I still need to go outside and guard the gate."

The woman gave Fang Mu a few words of advice and then left in a hurry.

Fang Mu pushed open the stone door.

Accompanied by a series of dull clicking sounds.

Go inside.

It was an open space.

There are several rows of seats inside.

There were quite a few people sitting in the seats.

It contains a considerable number of Foundation Establishment cultivators.

While Fang Mu was observing them, quite a few people turned to look.

Ignoring the stares of the crowd, Fang Mu remained calm and chose a secluded spot to sit down.

It didn't take long.

Two men in black then walked over and faced everyone in the seats.

He spoke:

"Fellow practitioners, we meet again. I will once again be in charge of this secret auction meeting."

"This auction will be conducted in spirit stones; the highest bidder wins..."

After explaining the auction rules, the person didn't waste any more words.

He immediately raised his hand, and a palm-sized, fiery red spirit sword appeared in his palm. He introduced it as follows:

"The first item for auction is the top-tier magic weapon, the Fiery Cloud Sword. This sword was crafted by a master and is of exceptional quality. The starting price is 250 spirit stones, and each bid must be at least 5 spirit stones higher. The auction is now open!"

The first item auctioned at the secret meeting turned out to be a top-tier magical artifact.

This immediately sparked enthusiastic support from many people below.

Prices have skyrocketed.

Ultimately, the sword was bought by a cultivator from a Qi Refining family.

Holding it like a precious treasure in their hands, it was clearly intended to be passed down as a family heirloom.

The first item fetched a high price of 400 spirit stones, setting a good precedent.

The old man in black, who was in charge of the auction, stroked his sparse beard with satisfaction.

"The second item..."

The auction proceeded as scheduled.

Among them were many rare minerals, top-grade magical artifacts, and scarce medicinal herbs.

Fang Mu sat in the back, observing coldly.

They didn't make a single move.

Suddenly, he straightened up, his eyes burning as he looked ahead.

Simply because.

At this moment, a jade bottle appeared in the hands of the old man in charge of the auction.

And as soon as he uncorked the bottle, a rich medicinal fragrance filled the air.

"True Essence Pills can enhance the cultivation of Foundation Establishment cultivators. Ten pills per bottle, to be auctioned as a set, starting bid: 1000 spirit stones!"

Appeared!

Pills that can increase the cultivation level of Foundation Establishment cultivators!

Fang Mu's spirits lifted immediately.

I originally came here to try my luck, but I didn't expect to actually run into it.

This bottle of pills is quite expensive.

The starting bid was a whopping 1000 yuan.

The Foundation Establishment cultivators present all showed signs of interest.

After all, foundation-building pills like these are rarely revealed under normal circumstances.

Although they could also collect medicinal herbs and refine them themselves.

However, there is a chance of failure when making it yourself, and it seems quite high.

Where else can you find the convenience of buying a finished product directly?

And so.

The entire auction hall erupted in excitement.

Bidding against each other.

The price of True Essence Pills soared, quickly reaching 1500 spirit stones.

And it shows no signs of stopping.

Fang Mu mingled in the crowd and made bids one after another.

He is very wealthy and powerful.

They didn't care at all about the loss of spirit stones.

Ultimately, it was due to his reckless bidding.

He acquired the bottle of pills for over two thousand spirit stones.

The auction continued.

"Ladies and gentlemen, my auction is nearing its end. The following is the auction of the last and most important item."

I believe that the final price of this item will definitely surpass that of the True Essence Pill, becoming the highest price today.

As he spoke, he took out a tortoise-shell-like magical artifact that was entirely black and exuded a heavy, solemn aura.

The surface of this object has flowing water ripples, and the sound of rushing water can be faintly heard from inside.

Upon seeing this item, many people didn't wait for the person to explain it.

He straightened up, his eyes gleaming.
