Early the next morning, Lu Zhong rented a red-tailed eagle and set out to participate in the auction.

The distance of a hundred miles was less than half an hour, and they soon landed in Yingling City.

After the war, Yongling City became more and more prosperous day by day. Not only did it return to its former glory of neon lights and bustling traffic on the streets, but there were also faint signs of being better than before.

It's just that the second war between the three sects is destined to break out, and this situation is destined to not last long.

Lu Zhong shook his head and walked towards the auction house in the central area.

When we arrived here, we could see that there were many monks waiting, all of whom came to participate in the auction. Almost all of them were wearing cassocks, which showed their financial resources.

While waiting, he listened to the chatter of others to relieve his boredom.

"Fellow Daoist Xiong, I heard that there is another special session on elixirs in Hall 1 today. Is it true or not?" A energetic old man inquired as he raised his hand to the thin monk next to him.

The auction house in Yingling City is not small, and there are many spiritual resources that need to be auctioned. Therefore, it is usually divided into multiple halls to auction various items separately. However, temporary special events like this are very rare.

That's why old people ask people.

The thin monk was well-informed. He smiled and confirmed: "Yes, I heard that there are ten bottles of secret grain pills. Brother Zhong will share two bottles with me later, hoping to use it to break through to the ninth level."

Soon, the auction house opened to the public.

Entering the corridor, there was a corridor with several small doors on the left and right, with the numbers one to eight written on them respectively. Lu Zhong didn't even look at them and walked straight towards the door in the middle.

This is the venue for today's annual auction.

Continuing walking inside, you come to the promenade leading to the venue. There is a huge counter halfway up.

The counter is where you buy tickets, and you must have tickets if you want to participate in the auction.

"Fellow Taoist, do you need a private room? As a disciple of Heling Sect, we can provide it at half price. The minimum requirement is only five spirit stones. This type of private room has all the functions of isolating spiritual consciousness, but the space is slightly smaller, and it can also be used. It has the effect of protecting privacy." A female nun behind the counter recommended.

Lu Zhong thought about it and decided to book a room. After all, the price was not expensive.

"Then give me a room."

With that said, he handed out five spirit stones to the other party.

After paying the money, a young maid came next to her, bowed and said: "Master Immortal, please come with me."

Follow the other party all the way, enter from an intersection on the side of the corridor, and after walking a few steps, you will reach a private room.

After entering, Lu Zhong looked around and was quite satisfied with the furnishings inside.

Sit down and pick up the auction list on the table.

The catalog contains all the goods that will be auctioned today, from high-end formations to high-quality magic weapons, elixirs and talismans, as well as various precious spiritual materials and elixirs. They are all good things that are hard to find outside.

After rummaging through for a while, he found what he wanted to photograph.

The Shining Gold Sword, a top-grade magical weapon, is ranked in the middle of the list.

"Exquisite fire magic sword, I really came to the right one this time!"

Then looking down, there are all kinds of treasures, such as the second-level high-grade magic array, the Blue Wave Formation, the pulse-protecting pill that can protect the heart when the foundation-building fails, and the final treasure - the foundation-building pill.

Lu Zhong stared at the word "three" for a long time before looking away.

The Foundation Establishment Pill, he hasn't saved enough spiritual stones yet, so he can't afford it yet.



After sipping fragrant tea in the box for a while, the auction began soon.

According to the order on the list, each auction item appeared in turn, either being scrambled to get a good price, or no one interested in the auction, and the atmosphere in the venue gradually became heated under the guidance of the host. .

"Nine hundred and seventy spirit stones, congratulations to this fellow Taoist for successfully filming a roll of Hunyuan Gong!" the host shouted excitedly.

Lu Zhong picked up the tea cup and took a sip.

This Hunyuan Gong is considered a good technique. Not only does it have no obvious side effects, it can be practiced to the elixir formation stage.

Therefore, selling nearly a thousand spirit stones is not expensive at all.

The auction is still going on, and the monks participating in the auction each have different purposes. There are monks who come here specifically for a certain treasure, and there are also monks who come here to watch the fun because they are too bored.

During the process, people continued to enter and exit the venue.

Lu Zhong kept drinking tea, leaning on the comfortable bench and waiting quietly.

Soon, the Shining Golden Sword appeared.

"The Shining Gold Sword is a brand new high-grade magical weapon. It has no wear and tear. It was produced in the Yan's workshop in the city. It is the painstaking work of Master Yan Eclipse. It is equipped with the powerful magical power 'Shining Gold' and the magical power 'Melting Fire'. Melting gold and pinning iron is no problem..." the host introduced earnestly, trying his best for his own commission.

"The starting price is nine hundred spirit stones. Each increase in price must not be less than ten spirit stones. Interested Taoist friends can bid!"

"A thousand spirit stones!"

"One thousand and ten!"

The Shuojin Sword was immediately known to be a high-quality magic weapon, so it attracted a lot of people to bid on it.

You competed with me to grab it, and the price quickly rose to one thousand five hundred spirit stones.

By this time, most of the bidders had stopped and only two people were still fighting.

Lu Zhong waited until the outcome of the fight between the two was reached, then increased the price by one hundred spirit stones, directly defeating the other party's will to bid, and finally successfully bid for the Shining Golden Sword at a price of eighteen hundred spirit stones.

Handed over the spirit stone in the box.

Soon, a maid brought the sword.

When I took the Shuojin Sword into my hand, I felt an obvious warmth, as if I was holding a piece of charcoal in my hand.

After carefully reading the accompanying manual, I found out that this sword was actually made of molten flint, so it came with the magical power of molten fire. The effect was to amplify the effects of the fire-based magical power, which was a perfect match with the shimmering gold magical power.

Unable to resist a trace of spiritual power, the sword immediately ignited a layer of flame.

Feeling the high temperature hitting his face, Lu Zhong's expression became more and more delighted, and he couldn't help but admire:

"What a great sword! It's really a great sword!"

I continued to read the manual, which mentioned the maintenance of this sword.

In order to ensure the characteristics of the molten fire stone, spiritual power needs to be transferred into the sword regularly, or it should be placed in a pool of fire, so as to ensure that the power of the sparkling gold sword is not lost.

Outside, another new auction item appeared on the stage.

"Five hundred and seventy spirit stones!"

"Five hundred and seventy-five!"

"Six hundred!"

Lu Zhong kept watching, and finally waited until the Foundation Establishment Pill appeared.

As the grand finale of this auction, it completely ignited the atmosphere of the venue as soon as it appeared, followed by crazy bidding, with more than thirty bidders.

If you want to break through the foundation building, the foundation building pill is not necessary, but the success rate of breaking through alone is too low, and it is easy for the heart to be damaged after the foundation building fails. Therefore, given the choice, most monks would choose to spend all their wealth to buy such a treasure pill that can increase the chance of establishing a foundation by 30%.

After watching the wildly rising bidding prices, Lu Zhong couldn't help but sigh that there were so many rich people.

Not wanting to continue reading, he stood up and left the auction house.



In the days that followed, Lu Zhong continued to indulge in cultivation, occasionally going out to eat some spiritual food, or having fun with Li Hejun, and lived a peaceful and leisurely life.

In the blink of an eye, the spring and autumn cycle turns into another year.

Thanks to the powerful effect of the Secret Pattern Pill, his cultivation level was as smooth as expected.

Compared with the seventh level of Qi Refining, the total amount of spiritual power this time has doubled.

At this moment, if you look inside your body with your spiritual consciousness, you can find that the "star-shaped" sea of ​​​​qi in the Dantian is vast. Compared with the small cyclone that initially introduced the qi into the body, the scale has expanded nearly a hundred times.

As the cultivation level continues to improve, the scale of the Qi Sea is still increasing day by day.

This rapid expansion process will continue until the Qi refining period is complete.

By then, with just one thought, the entire Dantian Qi sea will begin to collapse and enter a foundation-building state.

Not long ago, Lu Zhong had saved enough spiritual stones needed to take a Foundation Establishment Pill.

Considering that the passage of time would weaken the efficacy of the elixir, he finally resisted the idea of ​​going to the auction house to participate in the bidding, and decided to continue practicing honestly until his Qi refining period was complete.

Just a few days after his cultivation was stabilized, news came from the Miscellaneous Affairs Hall again.

After receiving the news, Lu Zhong frowned.

According to common sense, he should be able to practice steadily for three to five years after completing his sect mission last time.

But now...

"There is a high probability that there is something strange happening with Jinhong Sect and Luoyun Sect."

Without further thinking, Lu Zhong rushed towards the Miscellaneous Affairs Hall to confirm the specific content of the task.

On the way, I also met Master Shui Ni.

"Good disciple, take this jade talisman. I hope you won't use it!" Shui Ni handed out a jade talisman.

The appearance of the jade talisman is somewhat similar to the jade token given to me by Zhang Lingyi that day, but the pattern on the surface is obviously more complicated. The large pinhole runes are scattered all over, and there is a faint wave of powerful spiritual energy.

"I Have a Picture Book of Ghosts and Gods"

After Lu Zhong took it, he looked up and found that Shui Ni was gone.

In the distant sky, a ray of light gradually faded away.

After silently saluting, his expression turned solemn and he continued to rush towards the Miscellaneous Affairs Hall.



The atmosphere in the square in front of the Miscellaneous Affairs Hall was tense and solemn.

Groups of monks are gathering, and some of the assembled monks are already setting off. They either board the airship parked next to the cliff, or jump on the spiritual beast lying in the square, or the elders of the sect tell the world with their sleeves. technique, directly rolled into the sleeve and taken away.

When Lu Zhong walked into the miscellaneous affairs hall, the deacon uncle was already approaching.

It was a middle-aged man with a long beard who was carrying a sword box. After seeing Lu Zhong and confirming his cultivation, the other party's expression softened a lot and he said in a solemn voice: "Are you Lu Zhong? If so, follow me."

Lu Zhong nodded and followed, and soon followed Uncle Lin to a warehouse.

What you see is a mountain of storage bags.

Various quantities were packed in wooden frames, and the wooden frames were stacked together to fill the huge warehouse.

You can imagine how many storage bags there are here.

"Senior Sister Mo, I'm here to pick up the supplies for Team 23." Lin Nan walked to a corner of the warehouse and said to a woman inside with a bun and an elegant temperament.

"Junior Brother Lin, has your mission changed? Another supply list just came."

"Senior sister, this is no joke!" Senior Uncle Lin showed a surprised expression. Such a big event had happened. If the content of the mission was changed along the way, nothing good would probably happen.

Uncle Lin went to the Miscellaneous Affairs Hall to reconfirm the content of the task.

"It's okay, it's okay..." He breathed a sigh of relief

It's just that there are some more garrison targets, it's not a temporary change in the mission content.

"I'll take these supplies with me. Please confirm, Senior Sister."

"No problem!" Senior Sister Mo checked the check box in the account book to confirm the exit.

At this time, eight people came in one after another from the outside, led by a young man with a heroic appearance. The aura exuding from his body was the ninth level of Qi Refining, which was the highest among the eight people.

"Master, together with Junior Brother Lu, all the team members have been gathered."

"Everyone took out the storage bag and then set off with me." Uncle Lin pointed at the storage bag he had just taken out.

Lu Zhong took one and found that it contained various auxiliary elixirs, including those for healing wounds, restoring energy, and detoxifying. There were also many talismans. There were hundreds of cleansing talismans, and there were also golden light talismans for lightening.

In addition, there are three bottles of Bigu Pill.

"One Bigu Pill can keep you from hunger or thirst for a month. With so many Bigu Pills, is it possible that you will have to go out for three whole years?" Lu Zhong found that the situation was far more serious than he thought.

Fortunately, judging from the materials provided by the sect, he should not be used as cannon fodder.



Soon, a second-order red-tailed eagle flew out from Heling Sect

The second-level red-tailed eagle has a wingspan of five feet, so it is not difficult to seat ten people on its back.

After setting off, Lin Nan introduced the mission content to Lu Zhong and others.

It was to protect an important mine located in Xiaoyuan Valley, which was the target of attack by the enemy monks last time. After the war broke out, the original guard strength was insufficient, so they needed a group of them to go over and strengthen it.

Until the end of the war, everyone will be stationed there.

After Lu Zhong heard this, he couldn't help but sigh.

The war came suddenly and caught him off guard.

But there is nothing we can do now, we can only hope that nothing happens at the printing workshop.

Half a day later, the second-order red-tailed eagle flew into Xiaoyuan Valley at lightning speed.

Although Xiaoyuan Valley is named after the word "Valley", it is actually a huge fractured canyon. It looks barren on the surface, but in fact it is a huge mine inside. In order to mine the many minerals in the canyon, a city was even built to accommodate them. Mortal miners who have been mining here for generations.

Under the leadership of Lin Nan, the group quickly entered the Xiaoyuan Valley Formation smoothly.

There was no one around outside, but inside the formation was a different scene.

At this time, it happened to be the handover time for the miners. A dense flow of people were either coming out of the mine, or carrying magic tools and pickaxes to prepare for the mine. It was a busy scene that was chaotic but not chaotic.

Scenes like this happen in this thousand-acre mine.

The person in charge of Xiao Yuangu Mine is a thin female cultivator with bright makeup. Even though she looks frail, her cultivation level is much higher than that of Lin Nan. The latter has to call the former senior sister.

The female cultivator who called herself Yu Zhen first led everyone to cleanse themselves from the dust.

Then they discussed defense with Lin Nan, while Lu Zhong and others were listening.

"The disciples are patrolling in groups. You and I are on duty day and night. What do you think, Junior Brother Lin?" Yu Zhen said while coughing. She seemed to be ill. She would cough once or twice from time to time, whether she was eating or discussing things.

"Senior Sister Yu, let's leave it at that." Lin Nan did not object.

Lu Zhong was also satisfied after hearing the arrangement.

According to this arrangement, he also has a lot of time to practice on weekdays, and it will not delay the growth of his cultivation.

Next, it depends on how the situation develops.
